The mountain of various spoils of war before him made Xiao Mo unable to close his mouth.
This beast tide war was a complete windfall.
However, the top priority now was to quickly upgrade the [Immortal and Demon Reincarnation Pool].
The beast tide war yielded a total of 6,500 Immortal and Demon Stones.
The previous reserve was 3,240.
The Immortal and Demon Reincarnation Dead Soldier Corps consumed 220.
Purchasing two blueprints cost another 430.
This meant the current total amount of Immortal and Demon Stones was 9,090.
The original reserve of Soul Crystals was 31, and the beast tide war yielded 49, bringing the total to 80.
The upgrade requirement for the [Immortal and Demon Reincarnation Pool] was 5,000 Immortal and Demon Stones and 50 Soul Crystals.
As Xiao Mo had predicted, even with the successful upgrade of the Reincarnation Pool, there would still be a considerable surplus of Immortal and Demon Stones and Soul Crystals.
Since all conditions were met, Xiao Mo did not hesitate and immediately walked to the [Immortal and Demon Reincarnation Pool].
[Upgrade conditions met, do you wish to upgrade the Immortal and Demon Reincarnation Pool immediately?]
[Yes] [No]
"Upgrade immediately!"
The next moment, the giant dual-sided immortal and demon statue once again erupted with brilliant golden and red light.
A massive Tai Chi pattern, like a colossal grinding stone, slowly rotated above the [Immortal and Demon Reincarnation Pool].
Golden and red beams of light shot out from the statue, instantly entering the reincarnation pool, causing the water to boil and churn.
After a while, the two beams of light gradually dissipated, and the Tai Chi pattern disappeared.
The Immortal and Demon Reincarnation Pool returned to its calm state.
However, the two distinct auras emanating from the pool were more potent than during the last upgrade, and the energy fluctuations were significantly stronger.
Concurrently, the diameter of the reincarnation pool had expanded to a full thirty meters.
This time, however, Xiao Mo was astonished to see that the dual-sided immortal and demon statue had become lifelike, its eyes seeming to flicker with the urge to open.
Initially, Xiao Mo thought it was an illusion and quickly rubbed his eyes to look again.
This time, he saw even more clearly that the dual-sided statue had genuinely changed.
This sparked a thought in Xiao Mo's mind.
Could it be that this was not a simple statue, but a seal of some sort?
If the [Immortal and Demon Reincarnation Pool] was upgraded to a certain level, would this dual-sided statue break the seal and transform into a powerful immortal-demon symbiont, or perhaps an immortal and a demon?
These thoughts, once they appeared, lingered persistently in his mind, and Xiao Mo himself was startled by the notion.
If that were the case, how powerful would the statue be when transformed into its true immortal and demon forms?
It would at least be on par with a Heavenly Commander, or even an Arid-level Immortal-Demon King!
Of course, this might also be him overthinking things.
However, it was always good to have hope.
If a person has no dreams, what is the difference between them and a salted fish? One must always have dreams, for who knows when they might be realized!
Following that, the [Immortal and Demon Reincarnation Pool], after completing its upgrade, reappeared in Xiao Mo's sight.
[Immortal and Demon Reincarnation Pool: Unique unit summoning building.]
[Level: Four]
[Can reincarnate sixteen immortal and demon units daily!]
[Upgrade Requirements: 10000 Immortal and Demon Stones, 100 Soul Crystals.]
[PS: With a Level Four Reincarnation Pool, there is a 20% chance to reincarnate immortals and demons with special abilities or above the Profound grade.]
...
Upon seeing this information, Xiao Mo was ecstatic.
Reincarnating sixteen immortal and demon units daily meant he was essentially using a [Unit Expansion Blueprint] every day!
However, Xiao Mo also understood that the number of immortal and demon units obtained from using an expansion blueprint was random.
It was not guaranteed to expand by sixteen units each time; it was entirely a matter of luck.
It could be more, or it could be less, with much uncertainty.
The Level Four [Immortal and Demon Reincarnation Pool], however, was different. It reincarnated a fixed number of immortal and demon units.
The number of units reincarnated at each level would not vary, neither more nor less.
If there was any uncertainty, it was whether special or high-level immortal and demon units could be reincarnated.
However, this upgrade had directly increased the chance of reincarnating special or high-level units to 20%.
This still brought Xiao Mo a sense of pleasant surprise and relief.
A 20% chance meant that a special unit or a high-level unit would be obtained at least once every five reincarnations.
Of course, it could also be understood as for every 100 immortal and demon units reincarnated, 20 would be special or high-level units.
And with each reincarnation of sixteen immortal and demon units, wouldn't at least three of them be special or high-level units?
This was clearly still a matter related to luck.
Xiao Mo sincerely hoped his luck would be a little better.
[Immortal and Demon Reincarnation Pool energy insufficient, do you wish to reincarnate units now?]
[Yes] [No]
Suddenly, another interface popped up before him, and Xiao Mo naturally chose no.
To choose to reincarnate now would be a waste of resources.
When the energy value was sufficient tomorrow, he could directly reincarnate sixteen immortal and demon units at once.
Subsequently, Xiao Mo checked his remaining Immortal and Demon Stones and Soul Crystals.
He had 4,090 Immortal and Demon Stones left, and 30 Soul Crystals.
To upgrade the [Immortal and Demon Reincarnation Pool] to Level Five, it required 10,000 Immortal and Demon Stones and 100 Soul Crystals.
This base amount meant there was still a long way to go!
However, Xiao Mo did not feel it was particularly difficult.
The initial beast tide crisis had passed. Once the territorial matters were settled, he would occasionally go out and deal with local factions, and then expand his hunting range.
In this way, it did not seem difficult to gather the remaining 5,000-plus Immortal and Demon Stones and 70 Soul Crystals.
Afterward, Xiao Mo's gaze fell upon the stack of blueprints.
The drop rate of blueprints this time could be considered another burst of great fortune for Xiao Mo.
During this beast tide war, a total of seven blueprints had dropped.
Coupled with the [Watchtower] blueprint given to him by the little brat, and the [Unit Expansion Blueprint] and [Unit Evolution Blueprint] he had purchased.
He now possessed a total of ten blueprints.
This made Xiao Mo incredibly excited.
It was like a beggar suddenly receiving ten billion yuan and becoming a member of high society.
Xiao Mo appraised the seven dropped blueprints one by one.
He obtained three [Siege Crossbow] blueprints, one [Grand Manor] blueprint, one [Defensive Wall] blueprint, one [Unit Evolution] blueprint, and the remaining one was a [Skeleton Warrior Unit Building] blueprint.
The three [Siege Crossbow] blueprints were naturally put up for auction on the trading platform by Xiao Mo to exchange for Immortal and Demon Stones and Soul Crystals.
To him, the [Siege Crossbow] was of no use; the Immortal and Demon Tribe did not require such low-level defensive structures.
As for the [Grand Manor], Xiao Mo directly constructed it.
Such buildings still had some utility; at the very least, they looked exquisite and added some scenery to the territory.
The [Defensive Wall] was also used immediately, as the previous wall had collapsed during the beast tide.
Soon, a wall identical to the previous one once again enclosed the entire territory of the Immortal and Demon Tribe, greatly enhancing the territory's safety.
The [Unit Evolution] blueprint was set aside by Xiao Mo to be used later.
Following that, Xiao Mo looked at the last blueprint, but a sense of unease settled in his heart...
