Chapter 3268 Recruiting Mining Slaves (24)
"Three demigods have fallen!"
"Two demigods are severely injured!"
"The Ziyang Domain has suffered considerable losses in this battle..."
The message from the Demon God's Mirror flashed through Shen Changqing's mind, and he shook his head inwardly.
Even if Ziyang Domain is an unparalleled immortal domain with a profound foundation, so what?
In this day and age, there are very few semi-saints who are not afraid of the five signs of decay of the celestial beings.
Such strong men.
The fall of one means the loss of another.
Even though the Ziyang Domain is an unparalleled immortal domain, and may even possess the foundation of saints, such half-saints who are not afraid of the five signs of decay of heaven and man are still extremely important.
This time.
Three of the five semi-saints have perished.
Such a loss.
The Purple Sun Domain will never let this go.
In addition-
"The saint of the Ziyang Immortal Sect must have paid a considerable price to make his move, otherwise he would have acted long ago instead of waiting until now to have no choice but to kill that Ninth Tribulation Half-Saint!"
If that saint could act so easily, the other party would have already shown up, so why wait until now?
Therefore, Shen Changqing could conclude that the saint had paid a heavy price for his actions.
otherwise.
It's impossible to wait until the situation develops to this point before taking action.
Now that the fallen Nine Tribulation Half-Saint has been killed, the great calamity of evil in the Purple Sun Domain can be considered to have been quelled.
However, having suffered such a great loss, the Ziyang Immortal Sect, as a hegemonic power, will certainly not let this go unpunished.
At this time.
Yan Wuxiang also came.
The other party arrived.
This means directly reporting the news to the Ziyang Domain.
This news.
It was almost identical to what the Xingdao Alliance had reported.
However, if we really compare, the information that the Heavenly Demon Holy Land has gathered is still somewhat lacking.
"The identity of that fallen ancient demigod is still unclear, but in this battle, three demigods fell from the hands of that person in the Purple Sun Domain. Their strength must be among the top in the demigod realm!"
Yan Wuxiang said respectfully.
When he spoke of the fall of the demigod, his expression was complex.
Immortal Half-Saint!
Even such an existence could not escape a great calamity.
Talk about it.
This is the first time in this great calamity that a powerful figure of this level has fallen.
and.
And it's not just one.
Shen Changqing said, "That fallen half-saint called himself the Refining Void Venerable, a nine-tribulation half-saint who sought immortality in ancient times."
"A Nine Tribulations Half-Saint!"
Yan Wuxiang was shaken, not only by the cultivation level of such a being, but also by the fact that this Holy Lord knew the identity of that half-saint.
To know.
Shen Changqing has been staying in the Heavenly Demon Holy Land all this time.
Even so, the information the other side had was more detailed than what they had.
visible.
Behind this person.
There must be many secrets hidden within.
Thinking of this, Shen Changqing's image in Yan Wuxiang's mind became increasingly unfathomable.
therefore.
The deputy holy master of the Heavenly Demon Holy Land showed even more awe on his face.
Shen Changqing said, "Keep an eye on the Ziyang Domain matter. Ignore the others for now. Also, make sure to mine the Tailuo Immortal Mine with all your might."
As for the number of mining slaves, try to increase it as much as possible.
It would be better to recruit a group of mining slaves at the Immortal King Realm or even the Ancient Immortal Realm from other forces or independent cultivators.
Regarding compensation, a mining slave in the Immortal King Realm receives ten low-grade immortal stones per year, while a mining slave in the Ancient Immortal Realm receives one mid-grade immortal stone per year!
"If that's the case, I believe many cultivators would be willing!"
Yan Wuxiang nodded.
The Immortal King Realm receives ten low-grade immortal stones a year, while the Ancient Immortal Realm receives one mid-grade immortal stone a year. This treatment is already considered extremely high.
For a normal, independent cultivator, such as a cultivator at the Immortal King realm, the average annual income is about one low-grade immortal stone.
As for the Ancient Immortal Realm, it is measured in centuries, but on average, the number of mid-grade immortal stones that can be earned in a century is mostly in the single digits.
If Shen Changqing's statement is true, then the treatment of the miners in the Tai Luo Immortal Mine is considered extremely high for most independent cultivators.
Of course.
Mining is incredibly tiring.
Miners like those in the Tai Luo Immortal Mine, unless their immortal power is depleted and they can only recover a little or all of it temporarily, spend almost all their time mining day and night.
Despite the hardship, Yan Wuxiang believed that many independent cultivators would be extremely happy to receive such treatment.
"Remember, all mine slaves must stay in the Tai Luo Immortal Mine for at least 100,000 years, and are not allowed to leave during that time!"
Finally, Shen Changqing added one more sentence.
In this regard.
Yan Wuxiang was not in much trouble.
Only 100,000 years.
This timeframe isn't too long.
Even the weakest Celestial King can have a lifespan of hundreds of millions of years.
A mere 100,000 years is naturally not worth mentioning.
"I'll do it right now!"
Yan Wuxiang respectfully withdrew.
Shen Changqing waved his hand, then looked in the direction of the Tai Luo Immortal Mine.
Over ten thousand years, the tireless mining of immortal stones by one hundred thousand immortal kings day and night has been enough to expand the Tai Luo Immortal Mine considerably, thus accommodating even more mining slaves.
This is why Shen Changqing wanted to expand the number of mining slaves.
of course.
If he's willing.
It is entirely possible to forcibly recruit a group of Immortal Kings, or even Ancient Immortals, from various forces in the Tianxing Domain to serve as mining slaves.
But there's no need to do that.
After all, if they really did that, the Heavenly Demon Holy Land would inevitably incur the wrath of both heaven and man.
Although the Heavenly Demon Holy Land is currently strong enough to suppress all unrest, there is naturally no need to do so for a problem that can be quelled by sacrificing some benefits.
……
as predicted.
As soon as the recruitment news from the Heavenly Demon Holy Land spread, it quickly spread throughout the entire Heavenly Star Domain.
In various immortal cities, numerous independent cultivators were filled with excitement.
"One mid-grade immortal stone a year, wouldn't you accumulate one hundred thousand mid-grade immortal stones in ten thousand years?!"
"Hurry, go register! If you're late, you'll miss a great opportunity!"
Many independent cultivators were enthusiastic, but some held different views.
"Such high treatment, is it really worth it to mine day and night for 100,000 years? Is it really worth wasting so many years?"
As soon as these words came out.
Immediately, many cultivators looked at the other party as if he were an idiot.
"Fellow Daoist, what good is it if you seclude yourself for ten thousand years? We rogue cultivators are inherently of low aptitude. It is already a stroke of luck that we have been able to step into the Ancient Immortal Realm. How can we hope to advance further without a great opportunity!"
"That's right, ten thousand years of seclusion is a waste of time, while ten thousand years of mining can make you rich. With ten thousand mid-grade immortal stones in hand, you should be able to open up one or two more Primordial Chaos Worlds!"
"Ignore him, hurry up and register, or there won't be any spots left..."
Various immortal cities.
Many independent cultivators arrived upon hearing the news.
not only that.
Even cultivators from many sects and forces were uneasy when they heard the news.
One hundred thousand years, one hundred thousand middle-grade immortal stones!
That's an incredibly high salary!
What's wrong with working a little harder?
For most ancient immortals, a hundred thousand years of seclusion would be a waste of time, as their cultivation would barely advance. But with an extra hundred thousand mid-grade immortal stones, things would be different.
If it weren't for those powerful individuals who had reached the Ancient Immortal Queen level or even the peak, the cultivation resources obtained from exchanging 100,000 mid-grade immortal stones would be enough to open up one or two Primordial Chaos Worlds.
This is no joke.
Many ancient immortals from various sects, despite having powerful backers and resources to support them, still find it a pipe dream to obtain an equivalent amount of mid-grade immortal stones every 100,000 years.
After all.
Not all sects have a sufficiently rich foundation.
In the eyes of some powerful individuals, 100,000 mid-grade immortal stones are nothing, but for the vast majority of cultivators, it is an irresistible temptation.
and so.
This recruitment went much more smoothly than Shen Changqing had anticipated.
……
"Since the news was released, in just one month, a total of 13,000 ancient immortals and 3.57 million immortal kings have come to register."
However, the Tai Luo Immortal Mine can only accommodate about ten thousand more cultivators at the moment, so the Holy Land is prioritizing Ancient Immortals!
Inside the Heavenly Demon Holy Land, Yan Wuxiang came to report again.
During the report, the deputy holy master couldn't stop smiling.
Everything went more smoothly than I had imagined.
With so many cultivators signing up, there are naturally more options available.
Shen Changqing nodded: "Then we'll focus on the ancient immortals. If the Tai Luo Immortal Mine continues to expand, we can then select the immortal kings."
Although the cost of the Ancient Immortal Realm is much higher, the cultivators there possess immense immortal power, far surpassing even Immortal Kings. Therefore, the production of immortal stones should be significantly increased.
For ordinary rare minerals, the cost would naturally need to be calculated.
However, the Tai Luo Immortal Mine produces so many immortal stones that they are almost inexhaustible. Under these circumstances, Shen Changqing naturally prioritizes efficiency.
The so-called cost.
completely negligible.
"With an additional ten thousand Ancient Immortals, barring any unforeseen circumstances, the Tai Luo Immortal Mine should be able to produce an extra hundred high-grade immortal stones each year!" Yan Wuxiang said.
"That's about right."
Shen Changqing gave a soft "hmm".
Do the math.
The efficiency of one ancient immortal is roughly equivalent to that of two and a half immortal kings.
After all.
This is due to the special properties of the Tai Luo Xian Mine.
In addition, although the immortal power of a Celestial King is not as abundant as that of an Ancient Immortal, the Celestial King can cultivate and recover when his immortal power is exhausted. Therefore, in terms of mining, an Ancient Immortal is only equivalent to about two and a half Celestial Kings.
However, in terms of cost, the cost of an ancient immortal is equivalent to a thousand times that of an immortal king.
But it still comes down to the same thing.
Even though the cost of obtaining ancient immortals is quite high, it is still insignificant to the Heavenly Demon Holy Land.
After ten thousand years, an ancient immortal is nothing more than a high-grade immortal stone.
Ten thousand ancient immortals are worth no more than ten thousand high-grade immortal stones.
Compare.
Ten thousand ancient immortals.
In the same amount of time, a full one million high-grade immortal stones could be mined.
Even after deducting the cost of 10,000 high-grade immortal stones, there is still a profit of 990,000 high-grade immortal stones.
If it's a Celestial King, even if ten thousand Celestial Kings didn't need any cost, in ten thousand years it would only amount to around four hundred thousand high-grade Celestial Stones at most.
The former is obviously more efficient in comparison.
Again.
Other rare mineral reserves are limited, so the cost must be taken into consideration.
However, the Tai Luo Immortal Mine is currently being mined incessantly, and Shen Changqing has yet to figure out its limits.
Thus.
He would naturally choose the most efficient approach.
