This territory of more than 200 square kilometers was protected by a semicircular wall, and there were more than a dozen villages scattered around it. The roads, canals, reservoirs, and other facilities were already very complete.
Along the way, Feng Chou's biggest feeling was the desolation. In the entire territory, except for the port towns, there was almost no one to be seen. The built villages were silent. Although the roads, canals, and reservoirs were built, they were not put to use because there was no one around. Naturally, there was no need to talk about developing farmland.
There were not many people in the various fortresses, and they were all supported by the skeletal golems.
However, all of this would change soon. When Qiankun Pagoda finished devouring the half-plane and regained the ability to move at will, it would be able to send the people of Green Dragon Island over.
Thinking of Qiankun Pagoda, Feng Chou's heart was filled with disappointment and joy.
Previously, when he made the decision to abandon Qiankun Pagoda and cut off his tail to get rid of the Rebirth Mirror, it was actually somewhat impulsive. The key was that ever since he became a legend and obtained the lifespan of a gold dragon for thousands of years, his desire to get rid of the Rebirth Mirror's control was too strong.
Later on, when he thought about it, he really could not lose Qiankun Pagoda. This treasure was simply too important to him. Without Qiankun Pagoda, Feng Chou was actually just an ordinary descendant of a legendary gold dragon. His future achievements were almost predictable.
Therefore, the failure of the plan to cut off his tail made him both disappointed and happy.
If he really lost Qiankun Pagoda, just the matter of immigration would be enough to put him in a difficult position. Qiankun Pagoda could not only play the role of a transportation tool, it could also brainwash the immigrants on a large scale and weave their memories. He could also screen the immigrants to prevent Feng Chou from immigrating the hidden priests.
When the immigrants arrived at New Pedro Island, they would be far away from the temple of the gods and lose their transit station. Their connection with the gods they believed in would be completely cut off.
However, if there were priests among the immigrants, then the situation would be completely different. First of all, priests were essentially transit stations. As long as the Gods were willing, they would be able to see and hear what the priests saw and heard. Second of all, priests, even the lowest-ranked ones, would be able to establish a lowest-ranked altar, and altars would be a small transit station of faith. As long as there was an altar, the Gods would be able to discover and locate it.
As long as there were no priests, it didn't matter how many believers came over. After all, once a believer lost contact with the God, the God wouldn't know no matter how devout he was.
Priests could be said to be the bonds of faith. Without priests, believers and gods would be separated and unrelated.
Only Qiankun Pagoda would be able to remove all the priests from the immigrants.
Therefore, without Qiankun Pagoda's screening, Feng Chou would not have dared to migrate to New Pedro even if he had a demiplane.
Although there were indigenous humans on this island, it would take a lot of effort to cultivate these primitive people into Mages.
His ten years of hard work on Green Dragon Island would have been in vain.
Feng Chou had always felt that his greatest gain on Green Dragon Island was not the wealth, but the genius youths of nearly ten thousand people.
… …
Ten days passed in a flash. When he received Qiankun Pagoda's message and request to return, Feng Chou agreed to the other party's request without hesitation.
The birthmark that had accompanied him for two lifetimes finally returned to Feng Chou's chest.
If there was one person in this world that Feng Chou had absolute trust in, it was neither Gloria nor Chorre, but Qiankun Pagoda.
According to the memories of his first life that Feng Chou had recovered, Qiankun Pagoda was the product of the combination of Qiankun Pagoda's Artifact Spirit and a super AI. It had no self-awareness and regarded loyalty as the highest standard. If there was a danger to its master, it would self-destruct without hesitation.
Therefore, there would never be a situation where Qiankun Pagoda was captured and turned to set a trap for him. Besides, if Qiankun Pagoda was captured, the secret of Pedro Island would naturally be exposed. There was no need to set a trap at all.
The return of Qiankun Pagoda brought Feng Chou a lot of pleasant surprises.
First of all, after successfully devouring the demiplane, Qiankun Pagoda was no longer an isolated world. He had an indirect channel of communication with this world, and that was through the demiplane that he had devoured.
With a channel of communication, Feng Chou could conduct arcana experiments in Qiankun Pagoda in the future without worrying that the results would be completely different from those in the outside world.
On the other hand, Qiankun Pagoda could conduct experiments in Qiankun Pagoda!
Inside Qiankun Pagoda, Qiankun Pagoda was no longer blind. In Qiankun Pagoda, his observation skills and methods were dozens of times better than Feng Chou's.
This also meant that as long as Qiankun Pagoda had sufficient experimental materials and arcana data, he would be able to complete his knowledge reserves on his own, and would not have to wait for Feng Chou to complete it slowly.
The second surprise was the Wizard Tower in the demiplane.
It was a legendary Arcane Tower from the Arcane Era!
The owner of the Arcane Tower was the vice-leader of the Amazon Battle Adept Team. She was also a candidate to be the next leader, the mid-level legendary Battle Adept Moira.
Feng Chou had heard of Moira's name before. It was said that she was a rare magical prodigy among the Amazons. What was even rarer was that she had the bloodline of the Amazon royal family. When she displayed her shocking talent in the field of magic, she was heavily nurtured by the Amazon royal family.
Moira had taken less than a hundred years to go from being a Wizard Apprentice to a Legendary Wizard.
A hundred years was a very short period of time for a Legendary Wizard who had countless ways to extend her lifespan.
Following that, Moira used another hundred years to successfully advance to a mid-level Legendary Wizard, becoming the first mid-level legendary female Wizard in the Amazon royal family.
Whether it was in terms of magical talent or status, Moira was the best candidate to lead the Amazon Battle Adept Team in the future.
It was also because of her special status that she was able to obtain the right to control one of the three demiplanes in the Amazon Kingdom.
The surprise brought by Qiankun Pagoda wasn't the fact that he had captured a mid-level legendary Battle Adept. The real surprise was in the legendary Arcane Tower.
After Qiankun Pagoda devoured the demiplane, it didn't take much effort for him to completely conquer the legendary Arcane Tower.
Feng Chou had a whole new level of respect for Qiankun Pagoda from this point alone. He felt that he was most likely not bragging when he claimed to be the best spiritual treasure in the world of cultivation.
Feng Chou wasn't sure how powerful a demiplane was, but an arcane tower controlled by a mid-level Legendary, even if it was only a beginner level arcane tower, would have the terrifying battle power of a high-level Legendary Wizard.
Qiankun Pagoda had completely suppressed the tower without much effort!
After being suppressed, the legendary Arcane Tower opened its doors to Qiankun Pagoda.
Qiankun Pagoda was pleasantly surprised to find that there was a complete set of information on master-level arcane spells in this arcane tower.
