Chapter 1148 A Rare Moment of Leisure After the Battle  

In the Origin Territory, with Liu Yan and the others returning triumphantly, having secured victory in the territory battle and reaping generous rewards, the Origin Territory's members all experienced a significant boost in strength.

Normally, it would take months or even a year of arduous cultivation to achieve such strength gains. Yet, within a single day, the members of the Origin Territory attained them without any effort.

Such effortless gains brought immense joy to the members of the Origin Territory.

Liu Yan was feeling pleased as well. Despite being new territory, the overall strength of the Origin Territory had increased substantially after the likes of Lu Dajiang and the other experts joined.

While the Origin Territory boasted impressive expertise, it still lagged behind many established territories in overall strength. The disparity was particularly glaring when compared to their future adversary, the Lakon Territory.

However, recent territorial battles had yielded abundant gains. Of the five battles fought the Origin Territory lost only one, emerging victorious in the other four.

Even in the defeat against Lakon Territory, Liu Yan's victories over several opponents secured smaller triumphs, ensuring the Origin Territory still received bountiful rewards despite the loss.

During this period, the Origin Territory's overall strength skyrocketed.

Particularly noteworthy was the terrifying increase in strength among the ordinary members, with each member seeing at least a two-star boost in combat strength.

Some previously weaker members experienced an astonishing surge of up to four stars, an exceedingly remarkable feat.

After all, a four-star increase represented a difference of 40 levels in strength, a feat that typically required a considerable amount of time. Now, within a few days, they had achieved a monumental increase of four stars, or 40 levels of strength. Such a scenario would be hard to believe if it were not witnessed firsthand, it was simply too remarkable.

In good spirits, Liu Yan turned to Luo Qingcheng nearby and instructed, "Compile the data on the strength increase of all members of the Origin Territory."

"Understood," Luo Qingcheng responded.

Liu Yan needed to assess the specific improvements in the Origin Territory's overall strength during this period to plan their next steps accordingly.

Promptly, Liu Yan advised the experts who had participated in the territorial battles to take a well-deserved rest, considering the strenuous nature of the battles.

Lu Dajiang and the other experts were faring well, having either abstained from combat or experienced relatively light engagements.

But for newcomers like Allen Smith, this territory battle was indeed a bloody struggle. They were already exhausted, and even Allen Smith was seriously injured. At this point, Chu Long had led the Awakened, a group of priests, to assist with treatment.

As night fell, some of the ordinary members of Team Origin were still busy cultivating and practicing.

Although they had benefited from the rewards of the territory battles during this period, their strength had increased a lot.

However, they all knew that they still had a long way to go. They still needed to rely on themselves to increase their strength as much as possible.

Even the Lakon Territory that was right in front of them was a huge threat to the Origin Territory.

The powerful Lakon Territory was like a high and mighty deity, imposing pressure and a sense of crisis on all the members of the Origin Territory, compelling them to keep moving forward and become stronger. They didn't dare to let their guard down at all.

In an open space, a bonfire was lit. Under Liu Yan's call, the core members of Team Origin gathered here to roast meat from vicious beasts, drink beast milk, and have a meal. They were resting after this busy period of work and also discussing their future actions.

During this time, the backbone of Team Origin could be said to be extremely tense.

The experts who participated in the territory battles had to endure dangerous battles and face powerful opponents. Their lives were often in danger. They also bore the responsibility for the outcome of the territory battles and the future of the entire territory.

Even though the other core members and experts didn't participate in the territory battles, they were also very tense. On one hand, they were concerned about the outcome of the territory battles. On the other hand, they had to protect the members of the Origin Territory and lead them in serious cultivation and practice battles to increase their strength. After all, the crisis for the Origin Territory was not over yet.

The terrifying Lakon Territory was a giant threat to the Origin Territory. It was like a sharp blade hanging over the Origin Territory's head.

Until the strength of the Origin Territory grew to the point where it could contend with the Lakon Territory, all the members of the Origin Territory did not dare to let their guard down.

Now that the few battles had finally ended, and with a relatively perfect harvest, the backbone of Team Origin could finally heave a sigh of relief.

Xu Han reverted to his usual silly self and chatted with everyone with a smile on his face.

"Haha, I've been relaxing for so long. I don't have to do anything. I just cultivate in the territory safely, and my strength has been increasing. I've increased by two stars combat strength!" Xu Han laughed.

Xu Han was in a good mood, and his combat strength increased from 15 stars to 17 stars.

In fact, in terms of combat strength, Xu Han's strength was enough to participate in the territory battle.

However, Xu Han's fighting style was better suited to group battles.

The bigger the scale of the battle, the more useful Xu Han would be.

The territory battle was a single battle, which was a disadvantage for Xu Han, so he didn't participate in the battle.

Hearing Xu Han's words, Ye Yifan was speechless. He had only increased his combat strength by two stars, from 14 stars to 16 stars.

In other words, he had gone through a tough battle in the territory and even a life-and-death battle, but Xu Han had gained the same amount of power as him. Both of them had increased their combat strength by two stars, and in the end, Xu Han's combat strength was still stronger than his!

"I really should let you participate in the territory battles and let you suffer." Ye Yifan was helpless.

Xu Han smiled and said helplessly, "I want to join too. I want to train myself. But the problem is that Captain doesn't allow me to join!"

Xu Han sounded helpless, but he couldn't hide the smug smile on his face.

Hans Wilson sighed and said, "It's indeed safe to stay in the territory. I've gained a lot, and my strength has increased a lot. However, I'd rather participate in a territory battle. I've never participated in a territory battle before. It's a pity."
