Chapter 182: Cave Abode and Separate Courtyard

On the other side.

The guard teams remaining in Qingguang City.

Had already begun maintaining order among the mortal residents of Qingguang City, guiding these residents into the teleportation arrays.

In the areas where the four teleportation arrays were located, streams of people began to gather continuously.

Step by step, they entered the teleportation arrays and instantly arrived at their new home—Dongxuan City.

"Wow, we're moving to a new home!"

Little Yinyin, who was lining up, held her grandfather's hand, shouting excitedly.

Seeing Yinyin's excited expression, her grandfather's face also showed a rare smile of joy.

Yinyin's big eyes darted around, as if searching for something.

Suddenly, the little one's eyes lit up. Looking at a small fat boy not far behind the line next to her, she said happily:

"Ergou, you're moving to a new home too? Hahaha, that's great."

Hearing Yinyin's voice, the small fat boy instinctively shrank his neck, looked at Yinyin, and muttered softly:

"It's over, I've been discovered."

"Ergou? What are you muttering about?"

Yinyin blinked her big eyes, tilted her head, and looked at the small fat boy in confusion.

Upon hearing this, the small fat boy shivered and hurriedly explained: "Big Sister, nothing. I'm just happy to see you moving together."

"Hahaha, that's good!"

Yinyin ran over, patted the small fat boy's shoulder, and said with great satisfaction:

"Don't worry. When we get to the new home, I'll protect you!"

The small fat boy's simple-minded head shrank backward again instinctively, frightened.

Seeing his own son's cowardly appearance, and then looking at the little girl Yinyin, the small fat boy's father wore a helpless expression.

Glancing secretly at his wife, who wore a smiling face, he sighed in his heart.

"Well, none of us can escape."

As the crowd slowly advanced, the number of people in Qingguang City decreased rapidly.

After the mortal residents entered Dongxuan City.

The guard teams who had already entered Dongxuan City once again diverted these residents, teleporting them sequentially to the 10,800 districts of Dongxuan City.

Assigning them houses.

As the first batch of residents of Dongxuan City, every household was allocated a delicate small courtyard.

In the mortal residential area of Qingguang City, most residential buildings were independent small courtyards.

The houses in the small courtyards were all two-story duplex buildings designed by Ye Qingxuan himself.

Besides residential buildings, there were also a small number of commercial buildings, but they were only three or four stories high.

Looking at such novel and delicate houses, the residents who had just entered the residential area were very curious, with a hint of joy.

After moving into the new houses, many residents began to decorate the houses, refining some small details that Ye Qingxuan had overlooked.

For a place where they might live for the rest of their lives, these residents decorated it very carefully.

Moreover, as the first batch of mortal residents of Dongxuan City, besides their homes.

Outside the city districts, they were also allocated a considerable piece of land.

Many people, as soon as they stepped into their small courtyards, immediately followed the signboards, left the city districts, and went to find the land allocated to them.

Some had even started digging and sowing on their land.

Although the residents who had just moved into their new homes looked very busy, the joy on their faces never ceased.

The relocation of the residents proceeded in an orderly manner, and Ye Qingxuan also did not rest.

Although the city had been initially established, the numerous spiritual veins within the city had not yet been utilized.

Ye Qingxuan intended to use these spiritual veins to open up cave abodes and separate courtyards.

Taking advantage of the time during the residents' migration, Ye Qingxuan began to arrange array formations and prohibitions at the major spiritual veins. Throughout Dongxuan City.

Except for the spiritual veins on Wanling Mountain, there were a total of 164 spiritual veins in other areas.

Among them, there were 3 fourth-rank spiritual veins, 11 third-rank spiritual veins, 32 second-rank spiritual veins, and 118 first-rank spiritual veins.

The locations of these spiritual veins were originally gathering places for mid- and low-rank demonic beasts.

However, Ye Qingxuan had previously used the power of array formations to eliminate these demonic beasts.

For a spiritual vein, without affecting its continued growth.

If opening cave abodes of the same rank, approximately 12 cave abodes could be opened.

If opening separate courtyards, normally one large separate courtyard would be opened from one spiritual vein.

But Ye Qingxuan felt that the spiritual veins within Dongxuan City were still a bit scarce.

After pondering for a moment and weighing the pros and cons.

Ye Qingxuan decided to open three adjacent small separate courtyards on each spiritual vein above the first rank.

Sacrificing the quality and size of the separate courtyards to gain the quantity of separate courtyards and the utilization rate of the spiritual veins.

For the 3 fourth-rank spiritual veins, Ye Qingxuan decided to open 24 fourth-rank cave abodes and 3 fourth-rank small separate courtyards.

For the 11 third-rank spiritual veins, Ye Qingxuan decided to open 96 third-rank cave abodes and 9 third-rank small separate courtyards.

For the 32 second-rank spiritual veins, Ye Qingxuan decided to open 312 second-rank cave abodes and 18 second-rank small separate courtyards.

For the 118 first-rank spiritual veins, Ye Qingxuan decided to open 1,296 first-rank cave abodes and 10 first-rank large separate courtyards.

The last 10 first-rank large separate courtyards and the three second-rank small separate courtyards.

Would serve as dormitories for the Qi Refining guard team members, squad leaders, and company commanders of Dongxuan City, and would not be rented or sold to outsiders.

These grotto-heavens and secluded courtyards are one of the key means for Dongxuan City to attract external loose cultivators in the future.

As far as Ye Qingxuan knew, in other cities of Xingluo Zhou, cultivators could only obtain temporary usage rights to grotto-heavens or secluded courtyards.

Even cultivators who joined a city and served its City Lord.

The grotto-heavens they obtained could only be used by themselves and could not be passed down.

But Ye Qingxuan's Dongxuan City was different.

Ye Qingxuan established the city to gather resources and cultivate subordinates; attracting powerful figures was secondary.

For Dongxuan City to quickly make a name for itself in Xingluo Zhou, besides high-quality goods, it inevitably needed some special features to attract cultivators.

The spiritual lands, grotto-heavens, and secluded courtyards within Dongxuan City were that opportunity.

Ye Qingxuan decided not only to rent out grotto-heavens and secluded courtyards to outsiders but also to sell permanent ownership of some grotto-heavens and secluded courtyards in Dongxuan City.

Once a grotto-heaven or secluded courtyard in Dongxuan City was purchased.

As long as Dongxuan City existed for even a single day, the ownership of these grotto-heavens and secluded courtyards would belong to the purchasing cultivator forever and could be passed down indefinitely.

However, the price would certainly be steep, even exceeding the value of the grotto-heaven itself.

After all, these grotto-heavens and secluded courtyards were within Ye Qingxuan's Dongxuan City, meaning they were naturally under Ye Qingxuan's protection.

Their value naturally had to be considered separately.

Ye Qingxuan decided: a fifth-tier grotto-heaven atop Wanling Mountain would be sold for twenty million medium-grade spirit stones.

A fourth-tier grotto-heaven would be sold for four million medium-grade spirit stones; a fourth-tier small secluded courtyard would be sold for sixteen million medium-grade spirit stones.

A third-tier grotto-heaven would be sold for one million medium-grade spirit stones; a fourth-tier small secluded courtyard would be sold for three point six million medium-grade spirit stones.

A second-tier grotto-heaven would be sold for two hundred fifty thousand medium-grade spirit stones; a second-tier small secluded courtyard would be sold for eight hundred fifty thousand medium-grade spirit stones.

A first-tier grotto-heaven would be sold for fifty thousand medium-grade spirit stones.

If cultivators within Dongxuan City wished to purchase a permanent grotto-heaven to pass down to their descendants, they could enjoy a twenty percent discount.

Whether this price could sell the grotto-heavens and secluded courtyards, Ye Qingxuan did not care.

He simply wanted to use this policy to attract the attention and thoughts of external cultivators; that was enough.
