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

Time once again passed by 10 years.

The construction of the Northern Formation is almost complete.

This massive project of the fourth-level civilization, resembling a solid wall with a length of 10 kilometers and a width of 100 meters, stands in the north of Green Grass City.

Countless exquisite engravings adorn the wall, and when the sun rises, the glow of the dawn emanates like a flowing melody.

In government publicity, it is referred to as the "Northern City Wall."

It cost 122 points of luck and over two thousand spirit essence, marking it as the first wonder-class building of the Human 18th Civilization. (In fact, it slightly exceeded the budget.)

The "Northern City Wall" possesses functions to regulate city temperature, bring peace of mind, and protect the city.

Soul Full individuals of Green Grass City can apply at the government office to receive a "Thought Jade Pendant."

With this pendant, they can achieve long-term resonance with the World Will of Pangu Continent to break through personal limits.

"Breakthroughs from the awakening of such a God must be slow, right?" Lu Yuan entered the office as well and took a cold "Thought Jade Pendant."

Hanging it around his neck, it didn't seem to make much of a difference.

The supposed Pangu's Will and the "force" of the North were completely unperceivable.

The key lies in a gradual and subtle influence.

"Is it really useful?" Lu Yuan asked curiously.

"It's really useful! Plus, it depends on personal aptitude." Lu Tiantian laughed, "Most people in their lifetime might only break through by three or four points, like going from 16 to 20. Your divine attribute is so high, there's not much significant meaning to it anymore."

"Moreover, not everyone can be a Great Spirit Rhythmer."

"Only a few people recognized by the World Will can increase their Divine Attribute significantly."

"How can one be recognized by the World Will?"

"Either by making some outstanding contribution, gaining fortune; or being famous in a vast civilization... Well, fame in one civilization isn't enough, it requires recognition by many civilizations, and only then will you be acknowledged by the World Will."

"Got it, so the World Will is kind of like a [monster], right?"

"We think so too," Lu Tiantian clapped his hands suddenly.

Lu Yuan took the jade pendant and left the office.

Yet he removed it from his neck once outside.

"Seems like once I connect, I'll be quickly recognized."

"Forget it, it's just a trivial benefit for me, avoiding risks is better."

...

However, another problem arises.

The construction of the Northern Formation is relatively cheap, with many ice attribute materials in the Northern Territory.

The cost to build this wall is acceptable.

But the "Central Array" requires a large amount of earth attribute materials.

Earth attribute materials are quite scarce in the Northern Territory and have many uses, such as in plant cultivation and engraving, increasing their demand substantially.

Given the high demand and limited supply, the price is extremely high.

Even if humans buy all the earth attribute materials in the market, they cannot construct the Central Array, and they must endure the high premium.

This situation drove the shrewd Old Cat to sheer anger!

Thus, under Old Cat's urging, opening the Temple of Greed became an urgent task.

"Quick, comrade, you have lots of earth attribute ore!"

"Sell it to humans!" It practically roared out the sentence.

...

...

In Epoch 413, after a hundred years of brewing, the legend of the Giant Crystal Turtle is no longer illusory but a true reality!

So many people discovered this turtle that it actually became the God of Wealth in the Northern Territory!

Moreover, some civilizations even mobilized large armies, attempting to capture this turtle, but it effortlessly escaped using "Earth Escape" and never appeared in that area again.

Occasionally, a lucky person discovers this turtle and earns its favor, receiving a drop of its tear.

This tear, after solidifying, shines like a diamond under the sun, being an inferior-grade extraordinary material!

In most civilizations, an inferior-grade item is enough for ordinary people to lead a lavish life.

Occasionally, a lucky person finds a small crystal at a former resting place of the Giant Crystal Turtle, which turns out to be a Rare Level material!

Instantly, their status skyrockets from commoner to nobility!

Thus, searching for the Giant Crystal Turtle formed a new industry chain.

Every so often, a lucky individual achieves meteoric success; it's even more thrilling than playing the lottery.

Unfortunately, no one has ever entered the mysterious temple on the turtle's back...

This remains an unsolved mystery in the Northern Territory.

…

On this very day, a reconnoitre soldier came running breathlessly to the city gate, with a megaphone shouting loudly.

"It... it appeared! The Giant Crystal Turtle appeared in a valley a thousand kilometers away!!"

The Centaur race is renowned for their high-speed running, and their unique products are horse hair and horse milk.

This civilization in the Northern Territory is considered middle level, better than some, lacking compared to others.

In this small city, streetlights, wires, and communication devices have already appeared.

The upper-class nobility even use phones, televisions, and other technological products.

Thanks to the "Spirit Plant Field," the food problem has been greatly alleviated over the past few decades.

Of course, for these once weak civilizations striving for development, the greatest difficulty actually lies in their systems and culture, which cannot be changed just by time.

Hearing the shouting, a crowd of nobles quickly emerged from their rooms.

"The Giant Crystal Turtle... Quick, transport the food over there," the Centaur Chief dressed in red shouted, seemingly seizing an important opportunity.

"Chief, how much should we send?"
