Do you even have to spend money on food and accommodation?
Nima, we are here to pay tribute to you, but you are so stingy?
Really speechless...
After all, in ancient times on earth, those countries all had Honglu Temples, which were specially used to receive foreign envoys. It was okay to spend money on shopping and eating, but at least they gave people a place to live...
Damn, you are really stingy...
"This Lord City Lord is really too arrogant..." Fang Jun couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Haha, just get used to it. It's not just the Lord of the City. It's the same for all cities. There are only so many cultivation resources in this world. If I give you one more, I will lose one. No one is a fool..."
Childlike innocence smiled.
"That is, only you in the lower world will have such a strange emperor. Face is earned by strength. Those small countries should come to pay tribute. Who makes them weak..."
"Just like our Storm City wants to pay tribute to Shensha City, Shensha City can only continue to strengthen itself by constantly absorbing the resources of small cities like us, and then work hard to expand the strength gap between them and us. This is beneficial.
cycle."
"Like that emperor of yours, giving away all the good things to others is not sacrificing one's own strength. That country will definitely not last long..." Cheng Susu said.
"You really guessed it right, that country lasted for two hundred years and then was destroyed..." Fang Jun said with a bitter smile.
"That's right. Do you know that this Shensha City has existed in the spiritual world for more than a million years and is still very prosperous. This system has played a great role. At the very least, it allows the disciples of Shenshamen to have basic training.
Resources!" Cheng Susu said.
Millions of years?
Fang Jun couldn't help but be speechless when he heard this. Isn't this time too exaggerated?
Millions of years ago, the earth seemed to have just passed the last ice age, and the Quaternary Period had just been born...
Of course, Fang Jun no longer believes in Darwin's theory of evolution regarding the origin of humans on earth...
What slowly evolved from single-cell organisms to finally form many living plants on the earth, etc...
In the past, Fang Jun thought this theory was quite reasonable, but since he started practicing and learned that there is such a thing as bloodline awakening, he has some doubts about it. After he came to the spirit world for a period of time, he had some doubts about it.
This theory of evolution is even more derisory...
Because atheism is really a bit unreliable. In this world, there are really people who can move mountains and seas, and even become gods. All of these are things that so-called science cannot solve.
Of course, this does not mean that technology is useless. At least on earth, it has made life easier for many people. In Fang Jun’s view, many things in the spiritual world are not as advanced as earth, at least for various theoretical purposes.
He is quite inferior in mastering and manufacturing various things.
Fang Jun even felt that if a group of scientists could be brought up from the lower world, maybe they could develop some more powerful magic weapons in the spiritual world...
After all, although the magic weapons in the spiritual world are powerful, the atomic bombs and hydrogen bombs on the earth are not bad at all. If you get anxious, you can even blow up the entire earth. Anyway, the masters of the Golden Core Realm will definitely not be able to withstand this.
power.
They are just mortals, but they are able to come up with such terrifying weapons that even the masters of the Golden Core Realm cannot withstand. It is easy to imagine how powerful they are.
At least, according to the understanding of normal people in the spirit world, masters below the Golden Core realm cannot kill masters above the Golden Core realm no matter what, but mortals on earth can break this curse...
Along the way, Fang Jun discovered that they were not the only ones carrying the banner of tribute envoys. He also encountered teams of envoys from other cities along the way. Of course, more of them were local people from Shensha City, and there were even many women hugging them.
Holding the children, looking at them, as if watching a wedding procession...
The sixteen-member Storm City team was inconspicuous among the many special envoy teams. The number was too small, and some special envoy teams even had more than a hundred people. The leader was not walking at all, but sitting in a sedan chair...
This sedan is more luxurious than the one Fang Jun saw Cheng Susu wearing before...
"These are powerful cities that are slightly closer to Shensha City. Compared with them, our Storm City is indeed a bit small..." Tongxin said with a smile.
There are only three major forces in Storm City, and the strongest one is only at the Nascent Soul stage. Among the many cities in Shazhou, their strength is inferior.
The medium-sized cities are commanded by great masters of the Distraction Realm, assisted by more than ten Nascent Soul Realm masters, plus many Golden Core Realm masters.
As for the upper-class cities, they are places where virtual realm masters are stationed. There is no need to pay tribute at all in such places, and tributes can even be collected from the surrounding small cities...
As for the super city, it refers to something like Shensha City. Not only does it have masters of the virtual realm, it is also a branch of the super sect of Shazhou. It is strong enough, and the backend is hard enough. There are only a few in the whole sandbank, and it can completely dominate.
The existence of sandbank!
"No matter how small it is, there will be fewer disputes and fewer resources. Otherwise, it would have been taken care of by those big forces, and there would be no stability as it is now." Cheng Susu said with a smile.
Being taken care of by the big forces in the spiritual world, there are generally only three endings. The first is to withdraw directly...
Second, merge into that big force and become someone else's branch. Third, needless to say, total annihilation. There is no fourth way to go...
"That's true. Except for the fact that Shacheng was eyeing us that day, we and the other forces in other cities are getting along quite harmoniously." Tong Xin nodded after hearing this.
"General Tong, how much do we in Storm City need to pay tribute to Shensha City for this once-a-hundred-year offering?" Fang Jun asked.
"One hundred years, one million spirit stones, or materials of similar value..." Tong Xin said.
"Pfft...one...one million spirit stones?" Fang Jun couldn't help but be speechless after hearing this...
Isn’t this too dark?
It is equal to ten thousand spirit stones in one year. With so many cities coming to pay tribute, how many spirit stones will the Shensha City have to collect at one time? What a huge amount of wealth this is. If one can be robbed...
Of course, this dangerous idea was instantly suppressed by Fang Jun...
Just kidding, this Shensha City is a branch of the Shensha Sect, and one of the only super powers in the entire sandbank. Even if the Shushan Sword Sect meets, they may not be able to win, let alone Fang Jun, who is not a good person.
Innate Qi refining state...
"Black? Of course it's dark, but it's not bad. These one million spirit stones were produced by many forces and sects in Storm City. If you divide them up, you can get it together." Tong Xin said with a smile.
That's a million spirit stones. Think of Sha Tongtian, who has been a thief for so long and only accumulated a net worth of 50,000 spirit stones. This tribute is worth twenty Sha Tongtian's net worth... (To be completed
