Divine Beast Creator

Before Qi Chen could speak, Veronia asked:

"Won’t this make everyone hostile towards Great Xia?"

Judging by what Veronia knew of Feng Yuan, he shouldn’t be doing this. However, wasn’t Feng Yuan’s action representing Great Xia in the competition for resources?

"What if the resources obtained from stealing monsters were directly handed to the United Army? I believe they’d gladly take the blame."

Feng Yuan smiled as he spoke. He hadn’t considered directly sending the resources to Great Xia because one, the negative impact would be too great, and two, there was no need. Feng Yuan didn’t think it necessary for the Temple to cover all of Great Xia, as he hadn’t forgotten the significance of these things.

The main value of the Temple’s existence is to provide the United Army with a stable rear. In such a situation, directly handing the resources to the United Army for them to distribute is better than giving them to Great Xia.

Of course, if the United Army falls into internal chaos because of this, Feng Yuan wouldn’t mind, because as the United Army advances, there will undoubtedly be even greater interests waiting to be divided, which is the Anti-Divine Beast Rune.

Those things will surely not be directly managed by the Divine Beasts, and in the end, they will fall into the hands of the United Army. If they can’t even handle the distribution of Temple resources properly, the distribution of Anti-Divine Beast Rune resources will be even more troublesome.

"Seems like a pretty good choice."

Veronia naturally understood the intricacies involved. Tossing this matter to the United Army could also elevate Great Xia’s voice within the United Army to some degree, although it might not have much use, at least for minor matters, other countries would definitely not mind giving Great Xia some face.

The appearance of Shi and Xilnaes not only shocked the various nations of the world but even Agunas and its kin, because they clearly understood the truth behind Shi and Xilnaes. If not for that person, they wouldn’t casually roam the Main World, not to mention seize the Temple’s building materials.

However, they couldn’t discern what that person really wanted to do, since with his strength, these things seemed meaningless to him.

In the eyes of all nations, Shi and Xilnaes’ hostile actions of snatching resources belonged to them, naturally, due to Feng Yuan’s request, this point wasn’t so absolute in the eyes of third parties.

After all, it was a matter of contested resources, and it’s hard to say who they would ultimately fall into. Moreover, Shi and Xilnaes’ actions actually indirectly reduced direct conflicts arising from the Temple’s construction materials. Because of this, failing to immediately determine victory or defeat might result in materials being snatched by Shi and Xilnaes.

Of course, during this period, voices targeting Great Xia occasionally rose, but at this time, Great Xia stood behind the United Army and Divine Beast Hall, and those guys for a while had no feasible means. Not to mention forcibly linking the two, if Shi and Xilnaes actually announced protection for Great Xia, that’d be disastrous.

Even if the Divine Beasts behind wouldn’t reveal too much, they know Shi and Xilnaes are special beings. At least strength-wise, they surpass the Divine Beasts. Pushing them to Great Xia’s side due to Temple materials? Not a chance.

"Well, these things still aren’t difficult, except the need for constant outward exploration..."

Watching Xiao Ji and its kin clean up special monsters, Feng Yuan muttered a sentence. Qi Chen’s group hadn’t disbanded but under Feng Yuan’s lead slowly ventured into the wilderness surrounding Maomu City.

No option, these monsters wouldn’t refresh; once those at the city edges were cleaned out, slow outward expansion was necessary, unlike the hourglass before. The hourglass could leak monsters, as it merely adjusted challenge time, but not now.

Each monster represents a portion of Temple construction material assets, with an overall limit; missing one would be a sizable loss.

However, in the current situation, normal teams couldn’t easily venture into nearby outdoor areas; not that they can’t face risks present in wild environments. With the onset of war, wild Spirit Beast creatures have temporarily gathered near human-populated zones or clustered together in certain areas for warmth.

Nowadays, almost no wild Spirit Beast mobs are encountered outside to launch attacks; regarding environment threats, as numbers rise, increases in team Spirit Beasts are enough to find the needed Spirit Beasts to counter most threats.

The real trouble is the Imperial People who watch the Main World menacingly; they wouldn’t show mercy, and their power isn’t weak. Even large teams, if luck is bad, could suffer heavy losses.

But Feng Yuan here needn’t worry, joking aside, alongside him are Veronia and Tamur; unless the Imperial People plan on staging a grand battlefield near Maomu City, they can’t possibly ambush Feng Yuan’s team.

Thus, Feng Yuan’s team assumed the duty of venturing outdoors to gather materials.

Initially, Qi Chen worried that Feng Yuan might have opinions about this, but upon seeing Feng Yuan bring out camping gear, he understood his intentions.

"Exploration itself is quite difficult huh."

Veronia glanced at Feng Yuan and spoke teasingly; if not for their presence with Feng Yuan, this team exploring towards the wilderness wouldn’t have come so easily. Although they could easily face environment threats, it takes time.

Unlike now, where Feng Yuan’s group directly subdues dangerous environments. As for eliminating them? They could but Feng Yuan and his team won’t do it.

Extreme environments are part of wild Spirit Beast habitats too. The absence of wild Spirit Beasts now is only temporary due to the war. Feng Yuan didn’t see the need for unnecessary action, avoiding wild Spirit Beasts coming to Maomu City seeking explanations later.

"You mean those sneaky Imperial People? That’s right."

Feng Yuan glanced at Qi Chen and his group, smiling as he spoke. His team also encountered Imperial People’s attacks, but... they probably didn’t anticipate two Divine Beasts in the team.

However, other teams weren’t as fortunate. Maomu City benefited from Feng Yuan’s presence, sending out one more team, and given their good collection ability, allowing other teams to pair strong Beastmasters together.

Yet, in some places there weren’t as lucky; places where Beastmasters’ average strength is relatively weak, yet personnel must venture and explore nearby wilderness, leading to considerable sacrifices in these actions.

"Pity, the United Army’s frontline currently lacks capability to stop them; could make things slightly easier otherwise."

Sighing, Feng Yuan remarked, the United Army’s front now shifts into full defense. Since the Temple matter went public, they lacked manpower to keep sending armies into battle.

Even most frontline Divine Beasts withdrew, given the Main World’s potential for chaos, they couldn’t remain in the Imperial Timeline now.

"If the front still held, I’d wonder if they purposely dragged the war to this point."

Veronia glanced at Feng Yuan and spoke teasingly. Currently, the United Army wasn’t faring particularly well; the reason partly due to strength difference, but even more, United Army numbers couldn’t compare to the Imperial Timeline.

Given the other side is the entire world battling, though Mordan Empire withdrawing, thanks to Feng Yuan, didn’t heavily influence the overall situation, Mordan Empire still dispatches personnel to join battles, though less actively initiating now than before.

Lacking numerous Divine Beast participation, the United Army might have been overwhelmed under constant attacks.

Still, now that war timelines intervene, Imperial timelines also struggle in wholly dealing with the Main World, yet correspondingly, United Army must beware sneak attacks from war timelines.

"All a mess, everything muddled now, it’s unclear what’s being fought."

Feng Yuan sighed in exasperation, commenting. United Army actions were straightforward, attacking into the Imperial Timeline, targeting their valued areas, forcing them to fight internally within Imperial Timeline.

Yet, the war timeline appears chaotic; some trying to seize Imperial Timeline’s Anti-Divine Beast Rune, others, inexplicably targeting Main World, even reaching The Old World Continent.

Not just war timelines; Imperial timeline also aimed at The Old World Continent, only to find the place covered by Divine Beasts’ protection, and Mythological Remnants’ possessions aren’t lightly dealt with.

After taking losses in The Old World Continent, they became relatively quiet, given Divine Beasts really piled up there.

Except for the Temple revelations bringing more hidden Divine Beasts, The Old World Continent could well have been dubbed a Divine Beast paradise.

Furthermore, various minor forces from the three timelines attack many bizarre targets. At least to Feng Yuan’s perspective, war’s development becomes increasingly odd.
