Global Lords: Me and My Calabash Kiddos-Chapter 110 - 87: Island in the Lake, Fortune Beyond the Mist

Chapter 110: Chapter 87: Island in the Lake, Fortune Beyond the Mist

The Third-level Sealed Celestial Dao Stone can control how terrain evolves and shifts.

Yi Tian can conjure up three hundred square kilometers of lake water, then direct that water to surround the land.

Yi Tian’s total territory only covers thirty-six square kilometers.

Even if he uses up all the Celestial Dao Stones later, it’s just a bit over a hundred square kilometers.

If he has to choose, opting for a saltwater lake is definitely the best bet.

More than fifty species of saltwater fish, over fifty types of plants, more than fifty kinds of sea plants, and at least fifty varieties of crustaceans.

If, down the road, land area expands and pushes the lake outward, he can just keep expanding the saltwater lake with Third-level Celestial Dao Stones until it becomes a sea.

Yi Tian has Water Mastery, and with his current constitution, he can stay underwater for over two hours.

And it doesn’t affect his combat power in the water.

"OK, that’s settled then."

Yi Tian clenched his fist.

If he expands all three hundred square kilometers into territory, when enemies invade, Yi Tian will be running all over the place. Not exactly ideal for command and control.

With the lake as a barrier, it gets way harder for enemies to attack Yi Tian.

So, before using the Third-level Sealed Celestial Dao Stone, Yi Tian needs to strategize his territory layout.

And he’s got to wait until the Yin Yang Giant Panda comes to steal bamboo—then trap it inside.

Around Yi Tian’s War Manor, he used a total of eight Level 1 Sealed Celestial Dao Stones, placing one-square-kilometer plains in the east, south, west, north, northeast, southeast, northwest, and southwest. All eight directions covered.

Perfectly square and orderly.

He’s planning to build a small city covering nine square kilometers.

Lake Two used eight Celestial Dao Stones—total area expanded to ten square kilometers.

Lake One ate up twelve Celestial Dao Stones to reach fifteen square kilometers.

Five Celestial Dao Stones for the grasslands, just as a gesture.

The rest of the Celestial Dao Stones are all going east, north, and south—for future forest planning.

The two Second-level Sealed Celestial Dao Stones are both being used to create continuous mountain ranges, with one placed in the west and another in the south, each connecting with the existing mountains.

High mountains at five hundred meters elevation, right up against the mist—blocking off the northwest and north so tight not even air gets through. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

That wraps it up: the total land area in Yi Tian’s territory, including Lake One and Lake Two, now exceeds one hundred forty-eight square kilometers.

All this newly added land has thrown everything into chaos—water pipes outside the manor snapped, little streams dried up.

Yi Tian led his people cleaning up until midnight, burning through 1,110,000 Celestial Dao Coins to get things back in order inside the manor.

But the Little Kiddos’ favorite creek has been cut off for now—a large chunk will need to be re-dug.

The new creek is five kilometers long.

"Daddy, the Yin Yang Giant Panda wandered around half the day, then went up the mountain to steal bamboo again."

At night, after dark, the Yin Yang Giant Panda slipped in under cover of darkness.

Faced with a suddenly looming mountain, the Yin Yang Giant Panda was bewildered—like the path had gotten longer.

What’s going on? Nothing on the outside seems to have changed!

If its nose hadn’t told it the truth, it would’ve thought it took the wrong route.

On guard against the unknown, the Yin Yang Giant Panda loitered by the new mountain for ages before finally returning to its familiar High Mountain Purple Bamboo Forest.

"Celestial Dao Stone, use the Third-level Sealed Celestial Dao Stone."

Yi Tian scanned the Third-level Sealed Celestial Dao Stone with the Celestial Dao Stone.

"Lord, please select the terrain to generate."

The light curtain on the Celestial Dao Stone flashed, responding mechanically.

"Saltwater lake."

Yi Tian selected it according to the plan.

"Saltwater lake—generating three hundred square kilometers, max depth one hundred meters, can produce fifty types of saltwater fish fry, fifty types of marine plant seedlings, and fifty types of marine crustacean larvae."

"Lord, please choose where to place the saltwater lake and what shape it should take."

After the saltwater lake’s specs were described, a territory map appeared before Yi Tian, along with a map of a 300-square-kilometer saltwater lake.

Yi Tian can use his mind to manipulate this display.

A single thought, and the saltwater lake shifted into a sun-and-moon shape.

If the saltwater lake landed right in the middle of Yi Tian’s territory, his whole layout would get trashed.

Yi Tian mentally controlled the lake to the farthest border’s black zone, shaping it into a ring that encircled his territory.

"Proceed with generation!" Yi Tian commanded.

"Generation complete!"

The mist around Yi Tian’s territory quickly receded, making way for a pitch-black space all around.

In this space, you couldn’t see any soil—just pure black, bottomless darkness.

"Rumble rumble rumble..."

The territory shook, and from Yi Tian’s borders to the mist barrier, a vast lake appeared. At night, Yi Tian couldn’t see too clearly.

Because Yi Tian’s territory is irregular, the west and south sides are short, east and north sides long.

So the saltwater lake isn’t perfectly regular either.

The lake’s edge perfectly joins the mist.

On the west and south sides, the mist reaches the mountains forty kilometers away.

On the east and north, it’s only twenty kilometers from the mist to the land.

In the future, odds are enemies will still come by ship from the north or east.

Defending against enemies, the top tier is the lake barrier, followed by the city barrier.

Yi Tian reckons these natural barriers are far superior to anything man-made.

If the Horn Alliance attacks Yi Tian, first step is building ships.

If those ships don’t make landfall and get blown up by Elemental Warriors, they’ll have to swim over.

Even the Golden Warriors, while swimming—how much combat power do they really have?

Fly?

According to Gu Qianqiu, only SS-level Qi Refiners can ride wind and qi.

Body refinement: after SSS-level, flesh merges with rules—only then can they fly.

Of course, those born with flight don’t count.

That wraps it up for now—Yi Tian won’t make any changes anytime soon. Even if he gets more Sealed Celestial Dao Stones later, he’ll just hold on to them for now.
