I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early

In fact, after all the twists and turns and creating such complexity, Lu Yuan's aim was to achieve one thing — to create an ability stronger than [Powerful Wind], which counted as his little ambition.

At the end of it all, copying the Divine Skill requires the consumption of "Luck"!

After all, Divine Skills are born from Qi Fortune, and even Lu Yuan cannot avoid this.

"This field suits me perfectly!"

"If I can find the [Imprint] of Craftsmanship Talent and copy it hundreds of times, wouldn't humans profit? And I'll collect a small handling fee, haha."

Greedy Demon God·Lu Yuan stretched lazily in the snow, and with a light rumble, broke through from chrysalis.

A towering humanoid creature, ten meters tall, stood on the vast snowfield, its muscular lines were natural and smooth, with eyes emitting a red glow. The skin surface was covered with stone-like armor, truly majestic and extraordinary in appearance.

[Artificial Phenomenon·Greedy Demon God]

[Shape: 59.4-?]

[Qi: 45.9-?]

[God: 32.1]

[Ability, unknown. (Suspected to be Mythical·Artificial Artifact)]

[After gaining an organ "Core of Ability," the functions of the Greedy Demon God advanced further.]

Lu Yuan estimated, if the body size maximizes, with a height of 300 meters, the "Shape Attribute" could reach 90 points.

"I need to grow larger quickly."

The Divine Attribute also experienced slight growth.

To rival Miss Conch's Divine Attribute is indeed not easy.

Additionally, he gained two fields.

[Field·Greed.]

Once this field is activated, it's almost undetectable, yet made Lu Yuan feel the flow of various idealistic elements in the air.

In such a harsh environment, the Ice Attribute element undoubtedly enhanced significantly, while the Fire Element was suppressed — although this was evident, truly perceiving it was still quite difficult.

[Greed] field is functional, constantly emitting Entropy Elements, which greatly consumes Spirit Essence.

After having activated it momentarily, Lu Yuan promptly withdrew.

Moreover, there was a combat domain.

Lu Yuan took a deep breath, and his body color changed.

[Field·Iron Block]!

With a slight shift in momentum, his body's surface radiated a silvery-white glow.

This was the modified variant of the [Steel] ability's rule through the "Core of Ability," capable of external release, suppressing surrounding superpowers.

In the area of a hundred-meter radius, the conflict between elements ceased, various chaotic ideal rules behaved like obedient little sheep.

Of course, the effectiveness of [Field·Iron Block] still couldn't match the original [Steel], mainly because... Lu Yuan didn't want to be hunted, inviting big trouble.

Making the field too powerful might not be beneficial.

"This experimental [Field·Iron Block] is quite good... I'll think of ways to improve it later."

"Yes, and I'd need to integrate all my abilities!"

With that, Lu Yuan was quite satisfied with the new organ "Core of Ability," and the Ninth Epoch's first myth had finally taken the first step toward creating a new path. Only by treading one's own path could he surpass the predecessors!

Lu Yuan sprinted in the snow, breaking the sound barrier in the blink of an eye, and covering tens of thousands of meters in a minute.

Then he stopped, grimacing, and started walking slowly.

"Intense exercise costs, even a mere 0.01 of Spirit Essence must be saved."

The golden sun shone on him, lacking warmth, but still uplifting to the spirit.

A type of plant similar to moss was growing visibly fast, displaying the resilience of life vividly at that moment.

A few birds appeared from somewhere, chirping and pecking at the moss.

Lu Yuan tossed a few leaves of the Tree of Life to feed them, and the birds, having never tasted such delicious plants, scrambled for them.

Lu Yuan suddenly remembered something: "Wait, did I assist the natives in my dream? Their technology seems underdeveloped."

He suspiciously surveyed the surroundings.

"If native civilization truly exists... does it hold significance for us? They are so weak..."

Lu Yuan's heart jolted!

Significance!

Luck!

Even if these civilizations possess a little "Luck," it's legit "Luck"!

Ancient insects labored for decades, harvesting mere dozens of points of Luck, certainly not much, but better than dining away one's fortune.

Especially after Lu Yuan mastered the "Greed Field," the consumption of Luck for replicating abilities became even greater.

An "Spirit Word" ability, who knows how much luck it would consume!

And give humans a few more craftsmanships? How about a few more Rune Readers!

No matter how much luck you have, it won't be enough!

Thinking this way, Lu Yuan could hardly wait, he quickened his steps forward.

"Those guys, where are they native civilization."

"Instead, they're fat sheep, no... God!"

Customers are God!

...

...

On the tranquil snowy mountain, amidst the boundless sea of clouds,

Some are proud, and naturally, there are some disappointed.

After the cold wave.

One race after another, they all gathered exploration teams, setting out towards Green Grass City.

"It's said that ruins have suddenly appeared afar!"

"Quick, everyone move fast! That's a high-level relic, we can reach it in two days by riding the birds, don't let other races get there first!" A group of lizard men rode on huge five-meter-long birds, holding long spears, with big backpacks on their backs.

A dozen birds flew up into the sky, leaving only gusts of wind behind.

…

"This action, the omens are great, our warriors will surely turn misfortune into fortune and achieve a great victory. Let's head towards the treasure!"

A group of centaurs held long spears and, with the blessings of a wizard, started their long-distance charge.

…

"I predict that in the next five months, there won't be large-scale cold waves... It's time to set out! Loot the wealth within the ruins!"

"Wow oh oh! (screaming loudly)" This group of winged beings screamed loudly.

…

"Ruins... civilization ruins! A great opportunity to strike it rich!" This race with blue skin licked the dagger in their hand.

…

"Alas, it's too far. If we rush over, we're afraid we'll freeze to death on the road."

"But wealth will always flow over, maybe in a decade, it'll come to us."

…

Numerous civilizations have reacted in their own way. Some excited, some regretful, and some still inquiring for information.

A large Northern Territory, Green Grass City, has clearly become the future's core!

...

And in a small room on the edge of Green Grass City, the city lord of Wulan City, Ta Gang, finally woke up from his slumber.

He stared blankly at the ceiling, the bright light like moonlight, in cold tones, illuminated the room.

"Am I... still alive? Where am I?"

All his muscles ached, temples throbbed, scenes before his eyes appeared double, which meant his mental state was far from good.

On his nose, there was also a sweaty foot placed, a rotten salty fish smell rushed at him.

Ta Gang startled abruptly, pushing away this man's foot quickly, struggling up from the bed, coughing while cursing loud: "You damn fellow, why don't you cure that damn athlete's foot! Do you want to kill me with the smell?!"

"City Lord!" The owner of the sweaty foot, Wumu also bounced up from the bed, shouted in fear, "Where exactly are we?!"

"Quiet down!"

"Where is this?"

"How could I know?"

There were over four hundred people, two sharing a bed, lying in a large room.

Most were still in slumber, only a few heard the commotion, yawningly waking up from unconsciousness, looking around bewilderedly.

"Weren't we by the stone?"

"Right, our extraordinary abilities?!"

These guys patted their butts and then their heads, found their extraordinary abilities still intact, and finally heaved a sigh of relief.

"They really returned it to us... That Stone Man does keep promises..."

...
