This book was quite thick and exquisitely bound. There was also a leather cover made of unknown materials. It was very exquisite and emitted a strange fragrance.
Opening the book, the first page was a sentence: This book is exclusively for the royal family. No one who is not a member of the royal family is allowed to read privately. If discovered, they will be sentenced to death!
Lin Yan naturally flipped through the pages. After reading each chapter, his eyes gradually revealed satisfaction.
The first three-quarters of the book recorded the terrain, size, and main family forces of the various areas in the Qianyuan Prefecture. The last quarter recorded many hidden places like the Human Demon Valley Fortress in the Qianyuan Prefecture.
“The overall area of Qianyuan Prefecture is much larger than 1 imagined. According to the distance from the central city, it is divided into four levels: A, B, C, and D.
“Among them, the A, B, and C ranks are all large-scale blocks like District B16. Their area is equivalent to a small town or even a county.
“As for D-rank blocks, they’re small districts with an area like a manor. There are as many as stars scattered between many large blocks. They’re transit districts between large blocks.
“The entire prefecture capital forms a grid map scattered in the Chaotic Fog. According to the actual area, its size is shockingly large. As for the population, even if it’s limited by the Chaotic Fog, it actually reaches a million.”
This book also recorded the main forces in the various blocks, such as many sects and factions, producers and agricultural businesses, or ruling families. No wonder it was exclusively for the royal family and no one else could read it.
However, Lin Yan was more interested in the last quarter of the content. It recorded many secret places in Qianyuan Manor. For example, this book recorded that this place belonged to an imperial prince. It produced an extremely precious Flower-Picking Orchid Jade Fruit, a treasure specialty only found in Qianyuan Manor.
This was not a Yellow Grade, Black Grade, or Jade Grade Unusual Item like the White Jade Fire Lotus. Instead, it was a Spirit Transformation Treasure used to plant Spirit Marrow.
Other than the ungraded Spirit Marrow, the Spirit Marrows could not be casually planted into the human body because the spiritual substance contained in them would infect the spirituality of humans. If they were casually planted, it would cause people to mutate and transform into human demons.
At this moment, they needed a spirit transformation item to harmonize the spiritual substance of the Spirit Marrow before they could plant it in their body.
Lin Yan had seen a Spirit Transformation item on Liu Lanqing’s exchange list before. Its value was about two times that of the Spirit Marrow. It looked similar, but it was a second-grade Spirit Marrow.
The higher the quality of the Spirit Marrow, the more valuable the Spirit Transformation item would be!
As for this Flower-Picking Orchid Jade Fruit, it could harmonize the spirit essence of fifth-grade Spirit Marrow. In fact, the highest quality of it could harmonize sixth-grade Spirit Marrow!
It could be said to be priceless!
Especially in the eyes of those n.o.bles who controlled a large amount of resources, the value of this thing was a few orders of magnitude higher than a Jade Grade Unusual Item!
After all, breaking through to the Jade Grade n.o.ble Realm was too difficult. Just the adjustment of one’s mental state made the conditions extremely harsh. Most people could not do it at all, let alone they had to train hard for years.
On the other hand, planting the Spirit Marrow was their first choice as long as the Spirit Transformation item harmonized the spiritual substance. It was painless and easy.
“Therefore, it’s very likely that the entire prefecture capital and even the upper-cla.s.s n.o.bles in the imperial capital have generally planted Spirit Marrow. Moreover, the quality is definitely not low. After all, even Old Master Qian has planted fifth-grade Spirit Marrow…”
Thinking of this, Lin Yan’s expression couldn’t help but turn solemn. Planting the Spirit Marrow meant that he had become a Puppet People.
Moreover, a fifth-grade Spirit Marrow was already stronger than some Jade Grade n.o.ble Realm cultivators. Then, were there sixth-grade, seventh-grade, or even eighth-grade or ninth-grade?
There must be, right?
Not to mention anything else, Lin Yan had always been carrying one. This Spirit Marrow that he had dug out from the huge Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroach was at least at the seventh, eighth, or ninth-grade, right?
“The Jade Grade n.o.ble Realm is the ceiling of human martial arts, but it’s far from the ceiling of Puppet People’s combat strength…”
Lin Yan couldn’t help but recall Guo Fan and Zhang Yangzhou’s abnormal behavior and shouts before they died in Ding’an City.
“Are they… resisting such a human puppet world?”
Suddenly, Lin Yan’s ears twitched as a voice came from outside the door!
There seemed to be a coquettish female voice.
“You’re back? I was too engrossed in reading…”
Lin Yan put the book in his arms and walked to the side of the tiles, quickly sneaking out.
Outside the manor, Lin Yan paced as he pondered. He had to find an ident.i.ty to show his face.
Coincidentally, a group of iron soldiers in black armor walked over. Two of them wore tight helmets, similar to the Western medieval helmets he had seen in his previous life, covering most of their faces.
“Not bad…”
He immediately walked quickly and infiltrated the military camp. He found a storeroom and a light armor suitable for his size.
Wearing light armor and a helmet, he basically covered most of his facial features. Then, he adjusted the Black Tortoise Divine Armor slightly to make it reflect slightly on his face, causing his true appearance to have a few light and shadow changes. He could not be seen clearly at all.
“There are Puppet People everywhere. Even a normal person would have to tuck their tails between their legs…”
Lin Yan laughed self-deprecatingly. He didn’t hide but swaggered out of the military district in full armor. Along the way, he met many other soldiers, but no one stopped him.
He swaggered all the way to the few villas, only to discover that there were already people returning to the first few villas that had been empty..
