Chapter 268: Output

Relying on the Star Mountain's perception of the Starlight Cave Realm, Ye Qingxuan calculated briefly in his mind.

After exploring the entire cave realm.

He had obtained two spiritual treasures, one seventh-grade spiritual vein, one seventh-grade starlight stone spiritual mine, seven sixth-grade spiritual veins, and three sixth-grade other spiritual mines.

As well as various spiritual veins and mines below the sixth grade.

There were also various elixirs and magic treasures left behind by the Starlight Sect.

Within the Starlight Cave Realm.

Ye Qingxuan did not intend to plant any spiritual herbs.

He planned to use all the spiritual veins to mine spirit stones.

Since he could not use the spiritual veins within the Starlight Cave Realm for cultivation for the time being, it was better to mine spirit stones to expand his commercial power.

A sixth-grade spiritual vein, if no spiritual plants are grown and no cultivators cultivate within it.

As long as the elemental secret rule is successfully nurtured, using other auxiliary materials and array patterns to shape the magic treasure, changing its size and shape, becomes very easy.

A fifth-grade spiritual vein, under the same conditions, can yield at least three hundred top-grade spirit stones, fifty thousand superior-grade spirit stones, and three million medium-grade spirit stones annually.

The more seventh-grade spiritual mines used, the stronger the nurtured elemental secret rule will be.

Plus the numerous first to fourth-grade spiritual veins scattered throughout the realm, and the few first to fifth-grade spiritual mines.

One hundred cubic meters of seventh-grade starlight stone.

Making a magic treasure successfully nurture and birth an elemental secret rule is not that easy.

According to Ye Qingxuan's estimate.

Seventh-grade spiritual mines contain faint elemental secret rules and are of great value.

As for a sixth-grade spiritual mine, without damaging its own state, one hundred cubic meters of ore can be mined annually.

Therefore, compared to spiritual artifacts, the value of a spiritual treasure is even more exaggerated.

About 4. million superior-grade spirit stones.

Even for a single one-star low-grade spiritual treasure, the price would see a leap.

Without affecting the spiritual vein, at least three thousand top-grade spirit stones and five hundred thousand superior-grade spirit stones can be mined annually.

Three hundred cubic meters of other sixth-grade spiritual mines.

But to forge a low-grade spiritual treasure, even if the artificer possesses a tenth-grade secret rule.

And a vast quantity of medium and low-grade spirit stones, along with several thousand cubic meters of mines below the sixth grade.

One thousand low-grade spirit crystals.

The value of one cubic meter of a seventh-grade spiritual mine is roughly three hundred low-grade spirit crystals.

Often, forging a low-grade spiritual treasure requires smelting a considerable amount of seventh-grade spiritual mines.

Given the current situation, the Starlight Cave Realm can produce annually:

Three medium-grade spirit crystals.

Twenty-four thousand top-grade spirit stones.

It can be said that after Ye Qingxuan obtained this Starlight Cave Realm.

Just the annual output of the spiritual veins and mines within the Starlight Cave Realm far exceeded the annual revenue of the Tianfu Shop and Dongxuan City.

Most importantly.

After gaining control of the Starlight Cave Realm and securing a stable source of spirit crystals and seventh-grade items.

Ye Qingxuan finally had the capital to enter the seventh-grade market.

Within the Xuantian Sect, he might not have much advantage in the seventh-grade market.

But outside the Xuantian Sect, seventh-grade items are in high demand.

The Tianfu Shop has no powerful figures openly stationed, and the source of seventh-grade items cannot be explained.

So Ye Qingxuan did not intend to sell seventh-grade items at the Tianfu Shop for the time being.

But before he broke through to the Void Penetration Realm.

He could fully utilize the Starlight Cave Realm to accumulate a significant amount of spirit crystals and seventh-grade starlight stones.

Preparing to advance into the seventh-grade market outside the Xuantian Sect after breaking through to the Void Penetration Realm.

By then, with a large amount of spirit crystals as initial capital.

Ye Qingxuan could scour the seventh-grade items outside the Xuantian Sect to accelerate his own growth.

However.

Looking at the vast Starlight Cave Realm, Ye Qingxuan's eyes showed hesitation.

How to mine spirit stones and spiritual mines is a significant problem.

If cultivators are used for mining.

With his current power, he could only temporarily summon cultivators from Dongxuan City in the Dongji Region.

Transferring them through the Qingxuan Cave Realm to send the cultivators into the Starlight Cave Realm.

But mining spirit stones and spiritual mines is not something that can be finished in the short term.

At that time, to avoid exposing his secrets, these cultivators mining spirit stones and spiritual mines would definitely have to stay in the Starlight Cave Realm for a long time.

Long-term confinement would only cause complaints among the cultivators under his command, which is detrimental to development.

Moreover, the number of cultivators who have truly joined Dongxuan City is currently too small.

If too many cultivators are summoned, it would be detrimental to the management of Dongxuan City.

If too few cultivators are summoned, it would not be very meaningful.

"It seems I must find a way in the future to cultivate a large group of cultivators belonging to myself."

If the power he currently controls could deploy a large number of cultivators.

The problem he now faces can be easily resolved.

After much thought, Ye Qingxuan decided to deploy puppets to develop this secret realm.

The only drawback of using puppets to mine spirit stones and spirit ore.

Is that one of Ye Qingxuan's avatars must remain stationed within the Starlight Cave Heaven secret realm for a long time.

Low-grade puppets, after all, lack sufficient intelligence; without the spiritual sense control of Ye Qingxuan's possession, they cannot operate for long.

As for mid-to-high-grade puppets? Ye Qingxuan currently lacks the capital for such extravagance.

Fortunately, controlling low-grade puppets consumes very little of Ye Qingxuan's spiritual sense power.

Ye Qingxuan can absolutely control a large number of low-grade puppets simultaneously.

However, such matters require personal involvement, which inevitably leaves Ye Qingxuan somewhat displeased.

He has already made up his mind.

Once the Qingxuan Cave Heaven Blessed Land advances to the fifth tier and his cultivation base improves.

He will immediately begin expanding Dongxuan City and start cultivating a large number of subordinates belonging to himself.

Until then, he has left Dongxuan City in a state of laissez-faire.

Regarding the cultivation of cultivators belonging to Dongxuan City, Ye Qingxuan has always set only a general policy and has not interfered excessively.

Precisely because of this, although many cultivators have gathered in Dongxuan City.

Only about one-fifth truly belong to Dongxuan City.

To support a vast commercial empire, cultivating personnel has become imperative.

In the cultivation world, only by possessing enough cultivators and powerful figures can one rapidly expand their business.

Ye Qingxuan does not wish to face the predicament of having no one available when he advances to the Cave Void realm and prepares to expand his commercial empire.

The inheritance he received from the Earth Immortal did not contain only matters related to the Earth Immortal path.

The numerous techniques and spell inheritances contained within the Earth Immortal inheritance are now the time to fulfill their purpose.

Thinking of this, Ye Qingxuan, standing atop Star Mountain, narrowed his eyes slightly, constantly calculating his future development in his heart.

No matter how fast one person gathers resources, it is not as convenient as a faction.

This is why many lone powerful figures eventually choose to establish their own sects.

It is also why many cultivators are willing to join major factions.

Gathering resources with the power of an entire sect and forming resource exchanges can accelerate the cultivation speed of cultivators even faster.

Given the special nature of Ye Qingxuan's Cave Heaven Blessed Land.

If he had not opened the Tianfu shops at the beginning, nor established Dongxuan City and the mysterious shopping mall.

Then his growth speed would have been at least a thousand or even a hundred times slower.

Therefore, from the very beginning, Ye Qingxuan never intended to be a lone wolf who does everything himself.
