Chapter 648: 649
In fact, Lin Qian roughly understood what this place was ultimately for.
“Looking at it now, this relic should be used for training.” Glancing at the Martial Points described on the stele, Lin Qian had a realization, then said to Ye Xin and the others, “Behind each portal, there should be Soul Beasts of varying strength, specifically for the progeny of the powers that built this structure to train.”
“With so many levels, the higher ones are likely more difficult, and this first level is meant for children to exercise. Therefore, the creatures kept inside are called Purple Demon Fish, ornamental fish, since children obviously cannot be directly exposed to ferocious Soul Beasts.”
One factor supporting Lin Qian’s conjecture was that after Zhuge Ming’s analysis, it was found that the portal’s Array contained a switch. It only required a medium to be opened.
As for the medium to activate the Array, it should be the token of the person coming for training.
Such a token had already been found on that child, and despite who knows how many years, the writing on the token was still clearly visible.
But it only had one character…
Youth!
Clearly, this character indicated that the person participating in the trial was a child.
“Ornamental fish, a child with such a powerful body, who knows how many years passed without the body decaying.” With the cause and effect clear, having figured it all out, Lin Qian couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.
Using the token in hand, along with the research on the Array, Zhuge Ming declared that it was possible to replicate the token and open all the portals’ Arrays.
However, Lin Qian knew that with his current strength, he simply couldn’t mobilize more of the Huaxia Empire’s power; once the Arrays were activated, it would be like doomsday for the Soul Martial Continent.
Lin Qian would certainly not do such a foolish thing.
However, he was also very clear that the structure in front of him could be preserved, and once the Huaxia Empire grew stronger, they could open it and remodel it into a training ground for the Soul Martial Artists of the Huaxia Empire.
After the Huaxia Empire unifies the entire Soul Martial Continent and life becomes stable, how to keep the motivation for Soul Martial Artists to continue their Cultivation and to exert their martial strength?
In fact, the motivation to cultivate is easy to solve, the higher the Realm, the longer the lifespan. Therefore, every Soul Martial Artist will pursue a higher Realm.
But without opportunities to demonstrate their strength if they do Cultivate to such a high Realm, and without a place to wield their fists and kicks, problems will inevitably arise over time.
In future wars with other enemies, the Huaxia Empire naturally cannot have the Imperial Army and the War Beast Army mobilize in full force every time; these Soul Martial Artists who have submitted to the Huaxia Empire will form a new force and battle the enemy.
However, wars with enemies cannot always be ongoing.
After pondering deeply for a while, Lin Qian came up with a really good solution.
Instances!
For example, the first instance of the Huaxia Empire was utilizing the Middle Ages relic in Coastal State and remodeling it.
With the concept provided by Lin Qian and constructions aided by Zhang Juncheng, the instance was divided into four stages.
The entire Small World of the Middle Ages relic was divided into twenty parts, with each part allowing up to a thousand people to team up and enter at once.
The first stage is the Corpse Formation simulated by the Heavenly Art Department, which they modeled after the Black Blood Clan.
The second stage involves various mechanical traps and requires concerted efforts.
The third trial was the Abyssal Walkway, where everyone had to proceed hand in hand, trusting one another.
The fourth trial, that was the main event of the trial, simulating Black Blood Clan’s Nan Xin. To create the right feel, Lin Qian deliberately made the simulated Nan Xin twenty zhang tall and added a Domineering Body effect.
The monsters within the ruins were all formed from Array Soul Power condensation, and within the bodies of these monsters were various rewards, such as Spiritual Medicine, materials, or formed Soul Devices, Elemental Artifact Hearts, and Elemental Components, etc.
Of course, entering an instance dungeon required a fee, and also the contribution points of the Huaxia Empire.
Moreover, to ensure fairness, the right to obtain items would be determined by the Array based on the Soul Martial Artist’s performance in the dungeon.
As for the great loot dropped by the boss, there would be a system in place for everyone to roll points and try their luck.
When Lin Qian researched and introduced this instance dungeon, it truly opened Zhang Juncheng’s eyes. He had never seen this kind of training method before.
Trials from other forces were usually opened at specific times, but Lin Qian’s so-called instance dungeons could be attended at any time by paying the fee, as long as one had enough Huaxia Empire contribution points.
Furthermore, compared to other forces that tested individual strength, instance dungeons were more comprehensive, testing not only personal strength but also requiring cooperative teamwork.
Especially for leaders, who needed strong command abilities.
The existence of the instance dungeons not only allowed the Soul Martial Artists of the Huaxia Empire to leverage their strengths and receive outstanding rewards through this type of training but also to hone themselves.
Zhang Juncheng could foresee that the existence of instance dungeons would produce exceptional commanders within the Huaxia Empire, and also subtly cultivate the Soul Martial Artists of the Huaxia Empire to possess cooperative skills and awareness.
In the future, once the Soul Martial Artists of the Huaxia Empire encountered an enemy, they would instinctively group up, coordinating with others around them to create different combat strategies.
Now, the number of instance dungeons in the Huaxia Empire was constantly increasing, and at the entrance to these dungeons, one could often see scenes like this…
“Middle Ages Ruins instance dungeon group full, looking for Water Attribute Soul Martial Artists and Red Horn Clan Soul Martial Artists, hurry over!”
“The instance dungeon has been successfully reserved, there are still one hundred and twenty spots available after three days, no restrictions, just meet the Realm requirements, have Soul Crystals and contribution points ready.”
“Three hundred people veteran team for quick runs, veterans on the verge of a breakthrough come fast, no newcomers!”
When Lin Qian first saw this scene, he felt a deep sense of familiarity.
Thinking of this, Lin Qian believed that these ruins could totally be converted into instance dungeons in the future and could serve as progressively challenging dungeons to train the Empire’s Soul Martial Artists.
“When the time comes, let’s call this instance dungeon Penguin Tower.” Standing at the very center of the ruins, Lin Qian spoke with determination.
“Penguin Tower? What is a penguin?” Lin Qian’s words left Ye Xin puzzled and confused.
Seeing Ye Xin’s bewildered look, Lin Qian said with a smile, “The Penguin Empire, that’s a magical place. According to the ancient records of the Huaxia Empire, the cultivators there rely not on talent but on wealth. In that empire, there’s a saying that goes around.”
“Young man, do you want to become stronger? Then smash your money!”
Lin Qian’s words made Ye Xin burst into laughter, “Little Qian, how could there be such a place.”
“Of course, there is.” Thinking this, Lin Qian’s face turned slightly embarrassed as he thought to himself, “Back then, I was such a strong individual.”
