Chapter 218: Chapter 142: 20%, The Boiling Brought by the Martial Arts Training Ground 【8000 Major Chapter Appeal for Subscription】_3

Everyone was holding their breath, waiting for him to break through.

He had no reason to retreat, and even less reason to slack off.

Of course, the rewards of perseverance were equally immense:

[Cultivation: Perfect Earth-digging Realm (Skin Remodeling Progress 20%)]

In the previous four times, the Cold Beast Blood obtained totaled over 730 pounds, and after using it all, the progress increased by fifteen percentage points.

"Basic Strength is already close to fifty-five thousand. With the Cold Beast Blood brought back tonight, the progress should be about 23 to 24, and Basic Strength can reach fifty-eight thousand!"

The improvement during this period was indeed gratifying, but the breakthrough to the Cold Resistance Level seemed far off, which was also a fact.

Over seventy percentage points, and at the current pace, it would take at least twenty more outings, meaning about two more months.

"For more than half a month now, I haven’t been to the north. Without a doubt, the people from Mirror Immortal Camp must be hunting there recklessly. It’s time to check it out, otherwise, over time, they might truly start considering that place as their own territory!"

In the past five hunts, Xia Hong deliberately avoided Lu Shang Camp’s territory, not wanting to encounter Mirror Immortal Camp too early.

But constantly avoiding them wasn’t a solution either.

Some things, if left unchecked for too long, would become a fact. freewёbnoνel.com

If we keep ignoring Mirror Immortal Camp, they will disregard Great Xia even more, and they might someday venture south to start encroaching on more of Great Xia’s land resources.

The best hope is that Mirror Immortal Camp heeded the warning and has not come to Redwood Ridge during this time, though this possibility isn’t great...

It has been more than half a month. Xia Hong couldn’t keep leading his team away from them. He must go north and reassert Great Xia’s sovereignty.

"Of course, before going, I need to be completely prepared..."

Xia Hong thought silently in his mind and looked up at the left side of the room.

The wooden mannequin stood motionless against the wall.

Upgrade Conditions: 3000 wood, 6000 iron

As Xia Hong focused his mind, a portion of the system’s resources instantly disappeared.

[Resources: wood 45212, coal 1020, iron 7210, silver 0, gold 0]

Simultaneously, the wooden mannequin in front also began to change.

The ground under where the wooden mannequin stood, about ten square meters, suddenly burst into a bright light. When the light dissipated, the ground had turned black and was covered with intricate cloud patterns.

Meanwhile, the wooden mannequin, which originally stood on one leg, now stood on two legs, and its color changed from yellow to black, clearly indicating a material shift from primarily wood to primarily metal.

It was still two meters tall, with a hollow abdomen and complete facial features, the only difference was the lack of a smile on its face, replaced by a very serious expression.

Moreover, after a moment, the wooden mannequin gave a slight shake and astonishingly spawned four identical wooden figures in all directions.

Seeing the black cloud-patterned ground and the five wooden figures, Xia Hong was delighted and quickly checked the upgraded properties of the wooden mannequin.

Martial Arts Training Ground (Level 2): A 100-square-meter training area that significantly boosts cultivation speed and enhances martial insights, with five wooden mannequins included.

Special Function 1: The wooden mannequin can record Cold Beast species through Essence Blood and transform into any Cold Beast, showcasing the strength of an adult Cold Beast.

Special Function 2: Activate wooden mannequins within the Iron Refining Furnace’s radiation range to follow commands for autonomous combat.

Special Function 3: Training within the Martial Arts Training Ground increases Basic Strength improvement efficiency by twofold (applies only to cultivation below the Perfect Earth-digging Realm).

Special Function 4: Training with wooden mannequins doubles martial insights efficiency (applies only to cultivation above the Perfect Earth-digging Realm).

Martial Arts Training Ground Consumption: 20 coal per hour

Wooden Mannequin Consumption: 5 coal per hour

Upgrade Conditions: 100000 wood, 30000 iron, 200 silver

After reviewing all the properties of the Martial Arts Training Ground, Xia Hong was immediately thrilled.

Especially upon seeing Special Function 3, he couldn’t help but smile broadly.

Previously, the wooden mannequin did enhance cultivation efficiency and improve martial insights.

But the problem was there was only one, and it couldn’t be broadly used by everyone.

Moreover, it consumed 5 coal resources per hour, totaling 120 coal resources a day, which equates to 2400 pounds of coal stone, already taking up one-fifth of the current daily camp mining amount.

It’s impossible to have Earth-digging Realm cultivators mining coal daily, and there were many other coal-consuming areas in the camp, like the Medicine Decoction Pot and the Iron Refining Furnace, which were major coal consumers.

Therefore, previously, except for selecting the first batch of Hunting Team members, Xia Hong used the wooden mannequin only once; it wasn’t used much most of the time.

"Now it’s different, this 100-square-meter Martial Arts Training Ground area has the function to enhance cultivation speed, accommodating dozens of people at a time, the only drawback being the heavy consumption..."

Twenty coal resources per hour means 480 a day, which translates to 9600 pounds of coal stone, taking up four-fifths of the total daily mining amount.

Although the consumption is large, Xia Hong only pondered for a moment and realized that this consumption is by no means excessive compared to the benefits it brings.

The most important thing Xia Hong valued in this upgrade was this twofold indicator.

At Level 1, the wooden mannequin claimed to increase cultivation speed, with a description of "significantly increased," which Xia Hong himself tested, showing it was significantly increased for the Logging Realm, but as Basic Strength grew in the Earth-digging Realm, the enhancement diminished.

Heavy consumption; usable by only one person; enhancements decreasing over time.
