Cole can't believe that although the cultivation technique of Edifying Light sound complicated and hard, its true essence or use was actually very simple.

Edifying Light is ultimately just a... powerful spell for brainwashing.

Form a ball of light made of soul energy that contains all your thoughts and conviction. After entering the Sea of Consciousness, it will alter your mind and personality like a demon whisper.

It was like condensing a virus that'll automatically install a new software on device.

It was truly a perfect counter for demonic cultivators but in reality, this technique could also be used for fellow righteous path cultivators.

Cole don't have the intention of using the Edifying Light into its true purpose. Instead, the very reason why he choose to learn this technique is in order for him to understand it and made appropriate counter for it should a monk cultivator use it on him.

But in the end, it became the perfect tool for him to transfer his knowledge.

For instance, in his experimentation, he successfully transfer all the related information that he has regarding creating the needed bricks as well as road making using the said materials.

For the meantime, lack of manpower and materials leave Cole no choice but to resort on using more easier materials on his country's road making project. It won't be too late to upgrade it for more better materials later. What he want is to made the whole Rising Phoenix Spirit Tree Nation as prosperous and systematic like the kind inside his mind.

Cole was extremely satisfied with the Edifying Light spell that he got even tempted on cultivating the Supreme Bodhi Incarnation. After all, Edifying Light is just one of the spells included in the cultivation method and there's even more better than it.

Only, it was already his conviction that he won't cultivate a thing that'll make him a monk, even if there's only a chance of it.

The knowledge transferring Edifying Light spell opens up path to his plan for his established country.

Dian already made use of the knowledge he has receive from Cole. Not only he made a group that'll focus on baking bricks that could be used on the roads, he also made sure to search on other complimentary materials needed on the endeavor.

Although it confuse him why Cole transfer things to his mind that wasn't present in their city or even the whole empire as far as he know, he disregard those doubts almost instantly and just follow the city lord's instruction to look for materials with the same purpose and use.

Not only that, he also starts on researching about the so-called pottery. He intend to research it, realize it and use it as one of the business of the city lord which will provide a source of income.

Dian, as someone who was trusted by Cole, knew that all the movements and improvements of the whole city was because of the city lord. The income of the city from taxes and the likes is not enough to cover even 10% of the overall expenses from the last several weeks.

Dian didn't spoke it up to Cole as he believe that it shouldn't be problem. But the main reason why he didn't bother to inform Cole is because he could tell that the latter will definitely try to spread this knowledge to his citizens.

Dian is and great and all but the same as the aboriginals of this world, he also have the tendency to monopolize knowledge and use it for their own selfish reason.

It couldn't be said that Dian's intention is selfish since whatever income he could get would be directed on Cole's pocket, which is initial intention, and would be used by the latter for city development.

When Cole learn Dian's intention several days later, he didn't say anything. The intention favored him but it was unfortunately for Dian that pottery or baking mud in general would be scrapped sooner. After all, with his knowledge from Earth civilization, the only thing that limits him is the source of materials like iron mine deposits. As long as he manage to find the source, baking mud will be left behind and the city development will start on using metals and iron.

On the other hand, after experimenting with Edifying Light and he manage to perfect his own developed spell on transferring ideas, Cole immediately asked Dian to look for commoners with good background and can be trusted.

And then, after those people agreed on the contract that they won't betray the Rising Phoenix Spirit Tree Nation, he started to put forward his initial plan.

What he ask from Dian is to look for not scholars specifically but those that are deem knowledgeable and had passion for learning.

Afterwards, Cole transfer his knowledge regarding several subjects like English or Language, Mathematics and the likes. Those things that he learn from first-level to second-level of education.

They were expected to summarize those things, compile them and after several months or after a year, they'd be the first generation of teachers in the whole Rising Phoenix Spirit Tree Nation.

He has and put high expectations on them. Education was key to success of the commoners and it'll also produce all the needed talents the city needed.

As long as they were educated, Cole believe that it won't be long and the commoners would try to improve themselves.

But the education system will only take shape after a year and it'll only produce desire product after several more years. Cole don't intend to focus on them as he left it on his citizens to manage.

Instead, he focus more on the matter regarding the Heavenly Tribulation. Hunter was next in line but the Greenbark Clan reach out again and brought what Cole ask from them. They ask for the tribulation assistance, which he immediately agree.

Hunter's breakthrough was postponed for several days as he accommodate the person from Greenbark Clan.

Unlike the Red Tree Kingdom, the person who'll breakthrough from Greenbark Clan to Void Sensing-Stage were a young lady and through life sensibility, he could tell that the lady were truly young person. It wasn't the same for decaying life of the Red Tree Kingdom ancestor.

The one who visit the territory was just two people. The one Cole conversed before and the lady that'll made a breakthrough.

When they arrived, it was apparent that they intend to try their identities. It didn't surprise Cole as he could deduce some things base on limited information he acquire.

For instance, the Emperor who exchanged the Water of Life to him to extend his life-span suddenly die and Pirro, the Prime Minister Cole knew, made a massive blunder and was forced to remove from his position...

The puppets of the Heavenly Flame Empire were being suddenly 'changed'.

And according to Pirro's attitude the last time he visit as well as covert investigators they planted in the border, there is a high chance that the insurgency in the Heavenly Flame Empire have something to do with him and his Rising Phoenix Spirit Tree nation.

The Greenbark Clan should also be aware of this, probably the reason why they approach Cole and ask for assistance in covert manner.

But that didn't matter to Cole. The relation between him and Greenbark Clan were just a business partner. As long as they uphold their end of the deal, he'll be more than willing to hide their identity.

"City Lord, the Greenbark Clan would like to ask for Heavenly Tribulation assistance. We already brought the things you ask for." The person from Greenbark Clan said as he give a spatial ring to Cole which contains the things.

Cole scan the content of the ring and he was satisfied of what's inside. It contains more than what he asked for. It was apparent that the Greenbark Clan show their sincerity.

"We also brought gift for City Lord, in hopes of keeping everything a secret..." The other party added and put something on the table. "The Greenbark Clan also have another little request to made; if possible, please minimize the damage our descendant could acquire from facing the Heavenly Tribulation Trial. I don't know if the City Lord knew but the decade event hold and organized by Heavenly Flame Empire is about to commence after few more weeks and this descendant will become our trump card."

Cole can't help but smile when he suddenly receive a bribe. If his theory of changes in the empire have something to do with him and his country, then the presence of Greenbark Clan, one of the peak clan under the rule Heavenly Flame Empire, are not right, hence, the bribe.

In the first place, don't have an intention he'll acquire from his business. After all, if the others learned that he'll publicize information, no one will do business with him again.

Furthermore, Cole don't have the intention to sabotage the system of his enemy using the lives of innocent people. Not to say that people of this world are naturally violent; it was safe to assume that Greenbark Clan will vanish in Azure Territory should the information reach the ear of the empire.

Still, eventhough he don't intend to release or use the information, he don't have the intention to deny the gift of others! Specially when it contain something that arouse his interest!

Horticultural Greenhouse Array [Sky-Rank] A developed array that enables spiritual plants and herbs to create a resonance to support the growth of one another. The greater the compatibility between the spiritual plant, the greater the effect but the greater the effect, the greater the needs in spiritual energy.

Cole didn't try to be humble and immediately put the array book in his spatial ring. He view the gift so important that he even put it in his very own spatial ring.

"Don't worry, I can assure the Greenbark Clan that the Rising Phoenix Spirit Tree Nation won't release the information about your visit and purpose here." Cole assure the other party, which immediately put them at ease.

But before they could relax, Cole dropped a bomb to them, "However, the Rising Phoenix Spirit Tree Nation don't have the intention to hide or keep the secret regarding the tribulation assistance. Otherwise, I'd ask your Greenbark Clan to sign a contract to seal off the deal. Hence, if there's an external party that manage to see you and your company, it won't be the problem of Rising Phoenix Spirit Tree Nation."

In the first place, the reason why he reveal the existence of Blue and his capability is to bait a certain faction. He didn't use the binding curse of Evil Goddess of Hellish Condemnation and Divine Justice as those who avail the tribulation assistance should be those Cole depend to release the information regarding the special beasts that could absorb Heavenly Tribulation.

The person from the Greenbark Clan were stupefied, not expecting that the Rising Phoenix Spirit Tree Nation don't have the intention to control their technology regarding tribulation assistance when it was apparent that they have powerful binding force that could even restrict the mega force of Heavenly Flame Empire!

"Does... Does your Rising Phoenix Spirit Tree Nation won't care even if we release an information about your technology on Heavenly Tribulation after this deal?" The person from Greenbark Clan can't help but ask. After all, even a veteran ruler could tell that this technology could be used perfectly to rise from the rubble if used properly, which also apply to its current owner.

In his mind, the Rising Phoenix Spirit Tree Nation should put a tight security on it as it'll be the tool for their quick and meteoric rise.

"The Rising Phoenix Spirit Tree Nation don't have the intention to keep our technology since it is not complicated and can be said as easy to replicate. Your Greenbark Clan will know this later on." Cole said.

He then added with nonchalant attitude, "In fact, your Greenbark Clan could even use this information to earn some merits from Heavenly Flame Empire. I won't mind that at all."

The person and descendant from Greenbark Clan were shocked on what they here but their mind were already brewing some plans that'll bring blessing to their family.

But what makes them hesitate was the City Lord's fearless attitude regarding the Heavenly Flame Empire! It was almost strange to say but it seem that the newly established faction is not afraid of the empire, and it was more than strange!

After all, even if they have several Void Sensing-Stage expert with them due to their ability to reduce the difficulty of Heavenly Tribulation, it shouldn't be possible to rely on them to face the hundreds of years of foundation of the Heavenly Flame Empire and by the looks of it, the City Lord look intelligent enough to put a blind trust to newly promoted experts.

It looks like the Rising Phoenix Spirit Tree Nation holds a secret that was more valuable than their Heavenly Tribulation assistance technology!
