Chapter 842 God Emperor Cangping: Sent to dig Chaos Mountain
…
In the 330th year of the Anli period of the Great Qianyong period.
A fleet swam down the branch of the Yunxiao Tianhe [Yunxiao Ertian River], sailing majestically towards the depths of the Zhenze Region.
It's just that in this fleet, no ship has the same appearance.
Some are shaped like a beautiful palace, some are shaped like a sharp sword, some are spherical, and some are spindle-shaped...
There is no way. Although the Ship Department of the Shenwu Wang Family's Weapon Refining Department has mastered the technology of refining and building void ferries, building any medium or large void ferries requires a lot of resources and time, and The selling price is not cheap either.
In addition, with the exploration of ruins, new void boats are constantly being discovered, and the demand gap for void boats in the market is not very large. As a result, the Ship Department is still mainly focused on digesting and accumulating technology, and only built a small number of them. test ships to prove and develop technology.
That's why.
These "top mopping up teams" naturally use whatever flying boats they pick up. The low-performance old boats they replace can also be used to build a second exploration team, or sell them to second-rate exploration teams.
now.
A certain section of the Ertian River in Yunxiao.
A third-rate team composed of several broken boats was not far from the Tianhe River, heading upstream along the Tianhe River in the direction of the Forward Base.
It was obvious that they were returning home.
The flying speed of several broken boats was very slow, and they were shaking and squeaking along the way. It was obvious that these small boats were filled with "cargo".
When returning to the base from this direction, they cannot enter the Tianhe River to catch the flow, otherwise they will be pushed backwards by the energy tide of the Tianhe River. However, they do not dare to go too far away from the Tianhe River, because once they leave the scope of the Tianhe River, there will be an endless sea of dark void, which will make them They have absolutely no sense of security.
Therefore, the correct operation method is to return along the Tianhe "bank" curve. However, there is no acceleration along the Tianhe River when returning, and the speed is about three times slower than when going out.
This small boat team is a joint exploration fleet composed of several first-grade Lingxu families. The official registered name of the team is "Sooner or later I picked up the artifact", which shows Ling Yun's ambition.
Unfortunately, limited by their strength, most of the time they just pick up some scraps that the top bosses disdain or cannot fit, such as some star mine residues, bricks and tiles from dilapidated ruins and other building materials. They work hard to demolish and transport them back to the base. , you can also make a lot of small money.
If you are lucky, you may find some leaks.
But I can only think about artifacts and things like that.
When a team of top bosses decides to evacuate a certain ruins, they usually turn the ruins upside down and sweep them back and forth more than ten times, licking up all the valuable resources.
However, even just scraps, bricks, tiles and other building materials are worth a lot of money in today's Shenwu world.
After all, they are antiques that have been preserved from the time of the Immortal Alliance. Even the bricks used to build walls are specially refined spiritual bricks. Two pieces of them are indeed not as valuable as those Immortal Qi Dao tools, but a little makes a lot, for them For such a third-rate exploration team, there is still a lot of profit.
At this moment, everyone in the "Sooner or later I picked up the artifact" fleet is busy step by step.
suddenly.
A direct heir of the Lingxu family who was responsible for the observation exclaimed: "Ancestor, come and see! The big guys are traveling in a group~~~Have you discovered some hidden large copy?"
Hearing this, several Lingxu realm old men hurriedly came to the telescope to take a look, with expressions of amazement on their faces: "The first boat is Miss Li Yao's Yaoguang Sword Boat, it is [Ling Yun]
Rise] team. Well, the one at the back is the Immortal Palace team [Saint Picture is Not a Dream], the True Demon Palace team [Demon cultivators also have good people], the Yu Family Royal Family Team [Good Luck Comes], and the Demon Dynasty Royal Family Team [Wang Family Relatives]
], Well, there is also the Wang's exploration team [Holy Light Beautiful Girls Group], [Kun Young Harem Group], [Xuanwu Invincible Group]... Oh my god, there are so many big guys here, this, this, this is going to change the world.
~~!”
The names of these teams are actually for a reason.
Because the Void Sea Exploration Team is a free group, there will naturally be many broken groups. In order to facilitate management, each base will require these teams to register information to facilitate management. This leads to everyone needing to choose a team name for their respective teams.
.
At the beginning, everyone’s team names were quite satisfactory. The Asgard group was called “The Immortal Group”. However, with the popularity of a void exploration codex in the world of Shenwu, everything changed.
This cheat sheet not only attracted a large number of passionate families to come to the Realm of Destruction to explore and make a fortune, it also caused some teams to imitate and adopt some weird names in order to improve the [luck] of those in the cheat sheet.
What kind of dungeon, group clearing, clearing wasteland, licking clean ruins, boss team, picking up garbage, etc. are all buzzwords spread because of that small codex.
"Quick, let's get back to the base as quickly as possible, get rid of this garbage immediately, and keep up with the big boss's team."
"It's too late! The big guys are going with the flow and they are so fast."
"Then throw away all the garbage! Come on, let's go have soup with the boss!"
This third-rate team was so excited that they immediately dumped all the garbage they had finally picked up into the void sea, and then followed behind the big boss team.
Naturally, there are more similar situations than this one. As time goes by, more and more second- and third-rate teams begin to follow the big guys at a distance, ready to eat some scraps.
From a distance, the scene looks like a large group of small fish following a group of sharks, which is extremely spectacular.
Of course, the ruins in the Void Sea are often very far apart, and the [Zhenze Sword Palace] ruins discovered by Wang Liyao are no exception.
There is still about thirty years of voyage left.
***
A few years later.
It was winter in the year 334 of the Anli period of the Great Qianyong period.
Luo Jing.
Dingyun Shrine.
The exclusive study room of the God Emperor [Sheng Shen Pavilion].
The cracks on the desk forged from seventeenth-grade sacred wood have long been repaired, but even if it is the same kind of wood, the texture of each tree is different. Even if the craftsmen have repaired it with great care, the texture remains the same if you look closely.
Traces of repairs can be seen.
Behind the desk, God Emperor Cangping sat on the Hunyuan Dao wood chair passed down millions of years ago, looking at Jiang Lihuo and Ji Jiuxiao with eyes as cold as swords, filled with anger but without saying a word.
He was in a bad mood at the moment.
What happened when Ji Jiuxiao and Jiang Lihuo "visited" Guiyuan Villa that day has naturally been reported back to Luo Jing through various channels. He also sent people to pay attention to the whereabouts of Ji Jiuxiao and Jiang Lihuo early in the morning.
But probably because Ji Jiuxiao was seriously injured, he and Jiang Lihuo walked very slowly on their way back. They went back and forth for many years until they returned to the divine capital now.
As a result, as soon as the two of them entered the capital, they received the order from the Cangping God Emperor, ordering them to enter the palace immediately to have an audience without any mistakes.
Naturally, the two of them did not dare to resist the order, so they had to enter the palace in a hurry.
Facing the furious eyes of God Emperor Cangping, the two saints Jiang Lihuo and Ji Jiuxiao were so angry that they did not dare to take a breath.
They all lowered their heads, as if they had done something wrong and stood at attention to be beaten.
Because they had just returned to Luojing and were summoned before they could go home, both of them looked dusty.
Especially Ji Jiuxiao, her face was pale, her eyes were weak, and she looked like she had not recovered from a serious illness.
It's no wonder that he was beaten to the point of death, and his body and soul were severely damaged. Naturally, it was not possible to recover in just eight or nine years with just a few eleventh-grade Holy Pills of Returning to Heaven.
At this moment, in the Shengshen Pavilion, in addition to the two of them, there were also many key officials of the divine dynasty present.
Most of them are representatives of the ancient saint clan, and they are also common sharers of the interests of the divine dynasty.
Except for Ji Guanchao, an important minister of the Ji family, and Jiang Xuanhuo, an important minister of the Jiang family, everyone looked a little unhappy, as if they were blaming Ji Jiuxiao for causing a big disaster.
The faces of Ji's Patriarch Guanchao and Jiang's Xuanhuo Ancestor were not very good either, with a hint of worry in their heaviness.
At the same time, the soul projection of Ji Taichang, the ancestor of the Ji family, was also invited over again, and now he was standing at the front of the Cangping God Emperor.
However, the expression on his face at the moment was gloomier than that of God Emperor Cang Ping.
It’s no wonder that in a short period of time, troubles have happened to the family one after another, and all of them are embarrassing scandals. How can the ancestor of the Ji family be happy?
The most important thing is that in recent years, he has been busy deploying troops and generals to target the base camp of the Demon Realm.
Only a dozen years had passed since he learned from the God Emperor that the World-Destroying Commander was seriously injured, and he had already seized the opportunity to capture two fringe demonic realms like lightning!
Now, just when he was high-spirited and wanted to achieve extraordinary feats and leave his name in history, he was brought back by family troubles.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the Shengshen Pavilion was a little tense, and even the air seemed to be stagnant.
I don’t know how much time passed.
God Emperor Cangping finally spoke.
He waved his hand and threw a pile of magazines in front of Ji Jiuxiao and others: "You all read the latest issue of [The Truth]. If what the other party said is untrue, it is slandering you Ji and Jiang, I will
You took the initiative to block that magazine."
It’s no wonder that the Cangping God Emperor is full of anger. In addition to the deeds of Ji Jiuxiao and the two of them, [Truth] magazine has recently suspended the serial novel praising the God Emperor, and reported from various angles on the Ji family and the
Jiang's violation of laws and disciplines.
You know, that novel was the one he carefully selected from a hundred articles, and was the one that suited his heart the most. Not only did it have the most words, but it was also well-written, and the content was also ups and downs, exciting, and fully reflected his wisdom and prowess.
.
Of course, he was not angry because the novel had stopped, but the reported violations of laws and disciplines were really irritating.
Of course, [Truth] magazine gave the two tribes face this time. They did not directly name them, but used pseudonyms. But anyone who has a little knowledge of the political situation of the Dongxia Dynasty can see that,
The family in charge of the manufacturing and sales of military equipment is the Ji family, and the family in charge of military elixirs is the Jiang family!
"Wang Shouzhe is not trustworthy, he promised not to spread the news!"
After seeing various reports in the magazine, Jiang Lihuo was shocked and disbelieving at first, and then became extremely angry.
Although the descriptions in the magazine were all kinds of embellished and exaggerated, they were indeed based on facts. If someone hadn't leaked the information, who else would know the details at that time so clearly?
"You still blame people for not being trustworthy?" God Emperor Cangping sneered, "What evidence do you have to prove that this is Wang Shouzhe's rumor? It is clearly written in the magazine. The source of the news is a mysterious reader's submission and the magazine's own investigation.
.”
This this……
Jiang Lihuo felt helpless and aggrieved for a while.
"Your Majesty, please calm down." Seeing that the situation was not good for him, Jiang's Xuanhuo Ancestor hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to God Emperor Cangping, pleading, "Although Lihuo and Jiuxiao were at fault in this matter,
But it is true that Wang Shouzhe deliberately set up a situation to anger the Holy Lord Jiuxiao, and finally caused such vicious consequences. Your Majesty, please..."
As a result, before he finished speaking, the ancestor of the Ying family and the contemporary Tianzhu Holy King couldn't help but jump out and said sarcastically: "Xuan Huo, how do you know that this person did it on purpose? Don't change the subject here to clear up the relationship.
, Is Jiuxiao Holy Lord a three-year-old child? If he didn’t have the intention to kill, how could he be so easily angered?"
Hearing this, the other important ministers also nodded and echoed the words of the ancestor of the Ying family.
First of all, His Majesty's anger this time has made his position and attitude clear. If you stand with Yingshi, you stand with Your Majesty.
Secondly, everyone is also coveting the Ji family's military equipment sales and the Jiang family's military elixir sales. After finally getting this good opportunity, they also wonder if they can take the opportunity to dig out a piece of it to enrich their own family.
Of course, the most important thing is that no matter which God-Emperor he is, he is most taboo about his aristocratic families being too close together, which will naturally affect the God-Emperor's right to speak. Therefore, they naturally do not dare to side with the Ji family and the Jiang family at this time.
Perhaps, if Ji or Jiang had done this alone, His Majesty would not be so angry.
However, a family that is in charge of military equipment and a family that monopolizes military supplies and elixirs uses these two monopoly industries to join forces to cause trouble. This has undoubtedly completely touched His Majesty's bottom line.
"Your Majesty, and all colleagues."
At this time, the ancestor of the Ji clan finally came out of the queue and bowed deeply to God Emperor Cangping and everyone present.
His old face looked tense, and his eyes were full of helplessness and tiredness. It was obvious that the repeated incidents of Ji Kunlun and Ji Jiuxiao had dealt him a heavy blow.
His tone was solemn: "This matter is indisputable. Jiuxiao and Lihuo are indeed at fault. We, the Ji family, have never protected clan members who have made mistakes. They should be convicted and punished. However, I think Jiuxiao's soul and body are
If he is too weak, why not let him go back and take a [Life and Death Pill] first to save his life before punishing him."
"Pan of Life and Death?" God Emperor Cangping sneered, "I have made great achievements on the battlefield, but my soul was severely damaged because of the destruction of the projection. I have to take a Pill of Life and Death every thousand years to slowly recover. There is no one."
I'm afraid it will be difficult to recover after eight or nine thousand years, and a total of nine pills will be needed before and after! If you, the Ji family, have extra life and death pills, give them to me first."
This is the reason why God Emperor Cangping weighed the sacrifice again and again.
After his soul was severely injured, the price he had to pay to recover was too high.
"this……"
Ji Guanchao hesitated a little.
In addition to the two that ancestor Ji Taichang carried with him, the Ji family only had two life and death pills in total, which were very rare.
The main reason is that I don't have much use for these things on weekdays. The four coins I have now are the foundation that generations of ancestors have saved over the years.
"Haha~~ I have made great contributions to the human race, so I am not worthy of using the Taoist Pill of Life and Death, right? On the contrary, is a sinner like Ji Jiuxiao who ignores the laws of the gods more important than me?" God Emperor Cangping smiled coldly.
"Your Majesty's divine body is naturally more important than the sinner." Ji Taichang's projection hurriedly spoke to make amends, "I still have two life and death pills in my hand. I will give them to your Majesty for healing first. Later, we will gather two or three more pills from the major aristocratic families and the royal family.
Please ask Taichu Taoist Master to refine the raw materials again, so that your Majesty’s healing will not be delayed.”
Hearing this, God Emperor Cangping's face softened a lot, and his tone suddenly became polite: "I accept Marshal Ji's wishes, but Marshal Ji is currently making meritorious deeds on the battlefield, and this Life and Death Dao Pill is still
Keep it to yourself."
What he said just now was actually just to bury the Ji family. The royal family and the treasury already had a small amount of inventory, which was enough for his immediate needs.
What's more, he is the God Emperor, and he was injured on the job. Even if there is no inventory or raw materials in the treasury, public funds can be used to purchase or refine them, which really does not mean that his life and death elixir will be shortened.
"Your Majesty, you can speak at any time if necessary." Ji Taichang did not dare to force himself, so he could only give a slight salute and immediately withdrew.
But that sentence of "making great contributions" seemed to make him feel very uncomfortable, and his face seemed a little gloomy.
The stack of magazines thrown out by the God-Emperor just now reminded him of some not-so-good memories.
He was on the battlefield, so news would inevitably lag behind, especially some less important news, which he would often find out after ten or eight years. A serialized novel praising the great achievements of the Cangping God Emperor was published in the truth magazine. However, he had just
I found out soon.
Ji Taichang knew that this time he had taken advantage of His Majesty and was fighting a smooth battle.
But it's not as bad as what was described in the magazine. That mysterious author is just talking nonsense, saying that with the current great situation on the battlefield of the Void Sea, even if you send a dog as the generalissimo, you can win!
And the magazine just now also quoted what Wang Shouzhe said to Ji Jiuxiao at that time, what he said - Your Pingtian God King Ji Taichang has been stationed at the Void Sea battlefield for so many years. Although he lacks strategic vision and his tactics are mediocre,
But at any rate, I have guarded the border for the Dongxia people for so many years. There is no credit but hard work.
Listen, is this what people say?
Ji Taichang doesn't like quarreling, but after reading these contents, he still can't help but want to quarrel with Wang Shouzhe. If you have the ability, will you be the generalissimo?
At this time, God Emperor Cangping looked at Jiuxiao again, and his tone was quite impolite: "Speaking of which, I remember that Jiuxiao, you are already twenty-nine thousand years old, right? A Daluo realm monk has a lifespan of thirty-six thousand years.
According to your age, you only have about five thousand years left to live. In my opinion, there is really no need to waste the Taoist Pills of Life and Death. It is better to just go and avoid wasting food at home."
Even if a saint doesn't go up, just to maintain his bloodline essence and realm without falling, he will consume at least nearly twenty top-quality spiritual stones in a year.
After a hundred years, the resources consumed will reach two Chaos Spiritual Stones. After five thousand years, it will consume a hundred Chaos Spiritual Stones in food and elixirs.
Such terrifying consumption is also the fundamental reason why those saints are always unable to save money.
If it weren’t for the support of a huge force, or if its own means of making money were strong enough, how could it sustain such consumption?
The words of God Emperor Cangping meant that Ji Jiuxiao died~!
"Your Majesty~" Ji Jiuxiao suddenly became anxious and quickly begged for mercy, "I know I was wrong. I can go to the battlefield and redeem my sins."
"Going to the battlefield to atone for your sins?" The ancestor of the Ying clan curled his lips and began to sarcastically say, "With the great situation on the battlefield now, are you going to grab the credit? Your Majesty, I also want to go to the battlefield to make meritorious deeds!"
After hearing this, the other important ministers also reacted and asked for orders one after another, saying that they were going to fight on the Void Sea battlefield!
Their attitude seems to confirm what the mysterious writer of the magazine said, "Anyone can have sex"!
"Okay~ don't argue anymore, I have already taken care of this matter." God Emperor Cangping waved his hand, "The [Chaos Mountain] near the [Endless Abyss] of our dynasty happens to be short of miners recently, Ji
Jiuxiao and Jiang Lihuo will go to Chaos Mountain to dig Chaos Stones."
Go mining in Chaos Mountain in the Endless Abyss?
Ji Jiuxiao and Jiang Lihuo both changed their expressions.
Not only is that place dangerous, but it is also in the midst of various complex energy storms all the time. When digging the Chaos Mountain, you have to constantly circulate your profound energy to resist various storms. Not only that, the Chaos Mountain is also extremely hard, so you have to work slowly and slowly.
Chisel grinding.
It was an extremely hard and even painful job. After staying there for a long time, every day was a torment, and every day felt like we were passing through the end of the world.
It is true that digging in Chaos Mountain is very profitable. If you are very lucky, you can also dig out various top-notch refining materials, fairy spirit stones, and even a very small possibility of digging out chaos spirit stones, chaos essence and other treasures.
Moreover, the chiseled chaos gravel is also very important. It can be ground into slag and refined into [Chaos Bricks] using the Divine Dynasty's [Hunyuan Sky Furnace].
It is an extremely important and valuable building material.
Just like in the Shengsheng Pavilion where the Emperor Cangping spends most of his time, the materials used for the walls and the floor are Chaos Bricks, which even the Holy Lord would have a hard time breaking!
Some top defense facilities, arenas, and some extremely important buildings, such as warehouses and treasure pavilions, will also use Chaos Bricks.
It can be said that digging Chaos Mountain is a lucrative job.
But if you make more money, it will also belong to the common resources of the divine dynasty and go directly to the national treasury!
In that place, only some saints who were very short of money would grit their teeth and sign up to dig Chaos Mountain in order to continue their families or to cultivate particularly outstanding family heirs.
In addition, there are also some physically strong and relatively poor aliens who will go to Chaos Mountain to work for the tribe.
In order to attract more powerful people, the government of the Divine Dynasty will also give them a lot of rewards, including not only food and accommodation, but also the consumption of elixirs. In this way, after a thousand years of hard work, they can save an additional thirty or fifty Chaos Spiritual Stones.
.
But even so, there are very few strong people who are willing to stay longer. They usually leave immediately after digging the thousand-year mountain and can't wait to take the money.
There is no way, this is money spent at the expense of life and health. If you dig mountains there for too long, it will inevitably damage your foundation and longevity over time, and people's mental state can also easily have problems.
God Emperor Cangping's punishment was simply more cruel than sending them to a cannon fodder camp.
Just when their faces were ashen.
God Emperor Cangping sneered and continued: "Based on the mistakes you made, which caused huge and extremely bad effects, I will now officially send you two to dig up Chaos Mountain. As an accomplice, Jiang Lihuo needs to dig out three
As the main culprit, Ji Jiuxiao needs to dig out materials worth 600 Chaos Spirit Stones! When will the digging be completed and the distribution completed?"
What!?
Jiang Lihuo and Ji Jiuxiao almost collapsed to the ground.
Especially the latter, his face was ashen as death.
Digging out materials worth six hundred Chaos Spiritual Stones? This is killing him!
No matter how lucky a saint is, it will take him two to three thousand years to dig out materials of such value. If he is unlucky, there is still a question of whether he can finish digging until his lifespan is exhausted!
What's more, even if he's lucky enough to collect materials worth six hundred Chaos Spiritual Stones after two or three thousand years of digging, he still has to stay in Chaos Mountain for two or three thousand years! Can he really survive without collapsing?
