"Five strands of National Fortune?"

This is something valuable!

Right now, the entire Tianyuan City only has seven strands of National Fortune, and adding five more is quite significant.

"This time, with the assistance of the Nirvana Divine Phoenix, Myraid Tide Dragon Venerate, Stone Heart Saint King, and even the God of Purity working in the territory... there is no doubt some influence of National Fortune."

When blessed by National Fortune, one can turn misfortune into fortune.

When National Fortune accumulates to a certain amount, a small amount spent can slowly recover, much like Territorial Power or the Power of the World, rather than being a one-time consumable.

The Tai Xuan Four Pillars, or other camps of major powers using National Fortune for combat, most of what they consume is, of course, not a permanent depletion.

If it were permanent consumption, using a little bit here and there, over time the National Fortune would have already been exhausted.

But precisely because using too much National Fortune in a short time can cause permanent loss, the country pillars who wield the power of National Fortune try to avoid acting unless necessary.

This is also why, during the Heavenly catastrophe, newly rising nations like Shen Yao, Tai Xuan, and the Myriad Phenomena Empire of the past, are the easiest to be destroyed.

The newly risen major powers often have Saint Realm forces, mainly composed of country pillars.

While country pillars are comparable to Great Lords, they are limited in the frequency of their actions, rendering their strategic value in battlefields below the Saint Realm far less than that of a regular Saint Realm.

It's just that their deterrent value is higher.

But once calamities become frequent across various regions, the country pillars will be overwhelmed, leading to the decline of National Fortune, and putting the entire major power at risk of collapse.

However, old powers like the Qi Cheng Federation and Wan Shang Country have already passed their most dangerous periods.

In these countries, aside from the country pillars, there are also plenty of conventional Saint Realm combat forces, and for most calamities they face, they do not need to use National Fortune, reserving it for more critical moments.

…

"But our Tai Xuan is now also producing many talents, not to mention Tianyuan, Liushi, and Han Yue have already ascended to the Saint Realm, and others are close. We old folks just need to hang in there a bit longer, and maybe we can retire too."

Lin Guozhu said with a smile.

Bai Guozhu also received some Heaven and Earth's Gift this time.

However, he himself is already bound to Tai Xuan's National Fortune, equivalent to a special life form, and has difficulty improving his rank anymore.

But at this moment, Bai Guozhu and Lin Guozhu discovered...

"Our Tai Xuan's overall National Fortune has risen!"

"This increase in National Fortune only happens when the national power has significantly risen."

Yet at this time, as the Heavenly catastrophe ravages, many regions of Tai Xuan have been affected, with numerous battle zones breached, and territories and cities destroyed.

How could the national power still significantly increase under such circumstances?

This national power is not simply measured by top-level combat power alone, but also by the influence and proportion of territory, economy, population, and other factors.

How could the national power increase instead of decrease?

"Wonderful, wonderful!"

"Heaven blesses our great Tai Xuan!"

...

"Ding!"

"Tip: You have received a special gift of 'Power of the World ×10000'. This Power of the World is a consumable with numerous uses, including amplifying personal power, upgrading territories, and transforming domains."

A Light Ball, swirling with thousands of golden flows within, appeared in Mu Yuan's hand.

He could clearly feel the weight of this Light Ball.

Extremely heavy!

This is ten thousand units of Power of the World! The total Power of the World produced by the World Vine since its creation has not reached this amount.

Spending so much Power of the World, even multiple Saint Realms would not fare well.

Of course, using Power of the World to amplify combat power requires one or several carriers. To display the power to rival or even defeat a Saint Realm, the requirements for the carrier are very high.

"The rank of Power of the World is somewhat lesser than National Fortune."

Hmm, that's not quite accurate.

Power of the World is primarily about quantity; if you compare a single strand of Power of the World with a strand of National Fortune, the former naturally does not compare.

Each has its own strengths and weaknesses.

"Power of the World doesn't have the mysterious effects of National Fortune, and its uses are relatively limited. However, when it comes to transforming environments, Power of the World has great utility."

For another top-tier Lord, even a Saint Realm, it would be unclear the wonders of Power of the World.

But Lord Shepherd knows very well.

He once used Power of the World, making sweeping changes to modify the territory's environment.

The current Heavenly Origin City Main Peak was created using the Great Force of the world.

Mu Yuan, experienced from before.

"This Power of the World comes just at the right time, making the next upgrades, transformations, and breakthroughs in the island domain much easier, and I can complete this project more perfectly."

…

"Ding~!"

"Tip: You have acquired a special treasure 'Law Stele·Void (Epic)'."

"Tip: You have acquired a special treasure 'Law Stele·Time (Epic)'."

All done!

This third and fourth Heaven and Earth's Gifts, at first glance just Epic treasures, are indeed some of the treasures Mu Yuan has long yearned for.

Indeed,

Heaven and Earth's Gift holds some chance of 'having one's wishes fulfilled', or perhaps it's related to the rich National Fortune?

…

"Ding~!"

This time, brilliant and resplendent, the golden light of the highest grade of treasure diffused down.

Although before,

The colors of National Fortune and Power of the World revealed were also brilliant gold, but those were just the luminescence of the power themselves.

This current golden light is a symbol of honor and supreme authority.

A symbol of legend.

"Tip: You have acquired the Legendary Status Miracle Building 'Mighty Power Hall'!"

A small, pocket-sized temple emerged in the golden light, seemingly radiating with boundless Great Force.
