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

"Green Mountain's ecological capacity is limited, please queue orderly and visit in sequence."

"Each day, the number of visitors cannot exceed 3000."

In the vast mountain peak, there are three particularly dangerous areas in total, which are the Snake King's lair, the Sky Scorpion's den, and the Poisonous King Bee's hive, all of these wild animals are very aggressive and lethal.

Besides those, creatures such as mother bears, the Chicken Snake, unicorns captured from the Mandala Empire, as well as plants and animals bought from the Ratman civilization, are also raised here.

A total of 39 species!

Each year, approximately 21-30 Spirit Essence consumables are produced, laying a solid foundation for cultivating future talents.

Watching groups of tourists, Lu Yuan felt joy in his heart and instructed, "You, do not eat people, serve the customers well here."

The mother bear roared, her shiny eyes looking at Lu Yuan.

What's going on, have you captured me to be part of a circus?

"You, lay eggs properly."

With a constipated expression, the Chicken Snake started laying eggs right there.

Over fifty years had passed, and it had grown into a Level 3 life form, each egg as large as a fist and highly nourishing.

"Cluck!" An orange-yellow egg, patterned, fell onto the straw nest.

The Chicken Snake made a happy sound: "Cluck cluck cluck!"

These two were comparatively friendly wild animals toward humans.

Besides that, there was the enormous Cannibal Flower, which had been controlled by Lu Yuan, so there was nothing to worry about.

It had been planted in a special botanical garden, receiving the best care from those with Plant Affinity, with sufficient supplies of fertilizer and nutrient fluid.

The hive of the Poisonous King Bee was also in the botanical garden. These bees could collect nectar not only from the Cannibal Flower but also from other Extraordinary Plants like the Corn Tree and the Big Pear Tree, further increasing honey production.

Such thriving scenes were truly wonderful.

As people visited, they laughed and anticipated, and at the very moment of witnessing the fruits of victory, they experienced a heartfelt sense of happiness.

...

However, joy and sorrow often accompany each other.

On the day when the mountain relocation project was officially completed, Lu Yuan received some bad news.

"Mr. Lu, Mr. Sha might be having his last rally... should we go to the hospital?" the voice of the Conch came from beside him.

"Sigh... let's go."

Lu Yuan quickly took the girl with him and headed for the hospital.

Sha Sanli, the first-generation old man and former chief of The Sha Li Clan, was now at the end of his life...

His strength wasn't, on being only Level Two.

At one hundred seventy-two years old, he indeed reached the age to pass away in peace.

Sha Sanli saw the complete realization of the mountain relocation project and the many changes the humans had undergone over the years. His gaunt face trembled twice.

"Good."

"Time flies so fast."

It seemed like he was recalling a distant past, that very moment when he encountered Lu Yuan and his group, where all their fates had changed.

"How is Elder Sha doing…" Lu Yuan knocked on the door and saw Sha Kan'er, Sha Mo and the other younger generations.

"Ah, it should be... the final moments now," Sha Mo said softly.

Sha Kan'er's talent was one in tens of millions, formerly the Militia Captain, now a Level 5 expert.

Sha Mo's cultivation talent was ordinary, but as a holder of the Divine Skill and dean of the Great Engineering Institute, it was naturally easier for him to obtain resources. Currently, he was also Level Three, with a lifespan of over three hundred years, and still had the opportunity to advance further.

The lifespan difference between the strong and the weak starkly displayed itself at this moment.

Level Three experts live for three to four hundred years, especially those with high Divine Attributes, who could live even longer, possibly up to five hundred years.

For the strong, development over fifty or sixty years is not much, even their appearances do not change much.

But for those elders, it had already been a long stretch of time... they missed the best age for cultivation, and once the body began to age, even using resources to compensate was only half as effective, unable to make up for lost time.

"Captain Lu... you've worked hard," the gray-haired Sha Sanli, his face covered with age spots, "I've been lying in the hospital bed all these years, I could still see you on television."

Under the rally of returning light, he stared blankly at Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan smiled and gripped his cold hand: "The old principal worked hard too, the students have not let you down."

Sha Sanli seemed to remember that he had once been the principal of the Green Grass School, muttering to himself: "Hey, the old principal... might be the greatest achievement of my life."

Then, Lu Tiantian, Lu Yue, and the first generation sponsored by the society also visited this "old principal."

Though the "old principal" had a bad temper, he was still the teacher who had raised them.

Only those who have been through it know that the old principal wasn't that bad.

"Everyone has come, everyone is doing well, doing well..."

Sha Sanli smiled lastly, his facial wrinkles resembling deep ravines.

Under the brilliant sunset, the old man closed his eyes as if he had fallen asleep.

...

It was actually a very small matter, everyone mourned for a while.

Lu Yuan personally read the eulogy, then proceeded to cremate him at the crematorium, and Sha Sanli's hurried life came to a definitive end.

Lu Yuan was not new to experiencing departures and deaths, yet it still touched him subtly.

This world, the gap between people, was gradually widening.

The inequality of lifespan, that was the greatest contradiction.
