Lord Of The People: I Have Countless Territorial Traits

Chapter 193-195

Chapter 193: The King of the Mist! The Kingdom of Plenty! Promotion and Devouring Evolution!

"For every regional territory, you gain 1,000 acres of fertile soil, and the crops grown there can reduce their growth cycle by 90%?!"

Lu Qing stared at the feature of fertile soil for miles, utterly stunned.

Since he last purchased seeds of various grains, fruits, and vegetables from Shaota Town, he'd asked Mr. Zhao to coordinate with the farmers and fruit growers in his territory to plant these seeds. Over time, he had developed a solid understanding of agriculture in the source continent.

The source continent was already rich with elemental energy, allowing most crops to yield four to five harvests yearly. Typically, farmers planted a batch of seeds, and after just two or three months, they would fully mature.

But now, with a 90% reduction in growth time? That meant seeds could mature in just eight or nine days. The thought left Lu Qing dumbfounded. Wasn’t that almost like watching the crops grow in real-time?

And then there was the Mist Controller ability. It was unlike anything Lu Qing had seen. While most territorial features served to enhance the territory as a whole, this one specifically elevated the lord’s personal abilities.

He recalled hearing about a few rare cases on the World Channel—lords with features that boosted their own power. Like the King of Fire, who wielded flames, or the Dream Spirit, who could invade others' dreams. Lu Qing had never imagined he would have such a gift.

Control the mist? He wasn’t entirely sure what that meant, but it sounded intriguing, albeit not as direct as other abilities. Still, it was worth exploring.

Without further thought, Lu Qing took out the two territorial hearts he had obtained and approached the heart of his own territory. As he placed them upon his own, black text floated before him:

[Discover the heart of the territory. Devour it?]

“Devour,” Lu Qing said calmly.

In an instant, the two territorial hearts shattered into a flurry of golden and diamond-colored light, merging with the heart of his territory.

[Devouring successful!] [Territory feature obtained: Mist Controller (Gold)!] [Territory feature obtained: Fertile Soil for Thousands of Miles (Diamond)!] [Devouring evolution activated!] [Mist Controller (Gold) has evolved into Mist King (Platinum)!] [Fertile Soil for Thousands of Miles (Diamond) has evolved into Kingdom of Abundance (Transcendent)!] [Devouring evolution (Silver) is on the verge of promotion. Sacrifice a gold-grade heart to advance to gold!]

Lu Qing was excited but held off upgrading for now. Instead, he checked the newly evolved features.

[King of the Mist (Platinum): You are the ruler of the mist, capable of creating and controlling a mist world. Those who become trapped will quickly lose their way and eventually become your loyal mist subjects.]

[Abundant Kingdom (Transcendent): Your kingdom is renowned for its wealth and prosperity. Every time you obtain a new region, 10,000 acres of fertile soil will appear, reducing the crop growth cycle by 99% and maintaining permanent soil fertility.]

Lu Qing fell into deep thought. The Mist King feature seemed incredibly powerful, but until he tried it out, its full potential remained unknown. Creating a world of mist? That sounded almost godlike.

As for the Abundant Kingdom, Lu Qing could hardly believe his luck. The crops would now mature in less than a day! What took other lords months could now be achieved in mere hours on his land.
