Chapter 331
In the dungeon under the main peak, Lord Tianyu was posing in a strange posture, with various parts of his body twisting in different directions, and then motionless, seemingly having lost perception of the outside world.
Wei Yuan stood in the cell and watched for a full cup of tea's time, but Lord Tianyu still had no change.
Wei Yuan was also speechless, called in the jailer, and asked: "How long has he been like this?"
"It's been three days, and he hasn't moved at all."
Wei Yuan was even more speechless; upon closer observation, he found that the magic power in Lord Tianyu's body was like a tide, fluctuating with a very rhythmic rhythm, seemingly inconspicuous, but in reality, like an ocean undercurrent, nurturing extremely terrifying power. Just looking at the aura, this guy actually had an improvement again, only one step away from the Great Shaman; as long as there was an opportunity, he could advance at any time.
It seems Lord Tianyu treated the cell as a practice room and prison as wall-facing.
Wei Yuan naturally couldn't let him sit in prison so comfortably; after thinking about it, he took out the 'Feiye Zhuxian Sword', started half a section of the 'End of Ten Thousand Generations', and flicked it lightly at Lord Tianyu!
In Lord Tianyu's consciousness, he instantly saw his natural enemy! And the natural enemy was mutated, several times larger in size, and at this moment, it was opening its blood basin mouth with thousands of teeth, biting down on his head!
Lord Tianyu let out a scream, took off on the spot, hit the cell ceiling, and then bounced back to the ground heavily, almost fainting from the collision.
"Are you awake?" Wei Yuan asked with a smile.
Lord Tianyu saw stars, finally came back to his senses, stared at Wei Yuan suspiciously, and asked: "What did you just do to me? Why do I feel like you've cultivated something extraordinary?"
Wei Yuan said: "We haven't seen each other for a while; isn't it normal for me to advance?"
Lord Tianyu leaned close to Wei Yuan and sniffed, then suddenly sneezed, and said in shock: "What poked me!"
A wisp of extremely fine pale red sword energy slipped out of his nostril and returned to Wei Yuan's body. If he didn't teach him a lesson, his nose would rub against Wei Yuan's body.
Wei Yuan said seriously: "Do you want to go back?"
"Don't want to!"
Wei Yuan was stunned: "Why?"
"The ransom is just a small matter; I found that in your place, under the condition of completely sealed magic power, my cultivation progress is exceptionally fast, and I already have inspiration; it seems the grade of the Dao Foundation can be improved a bit more. If you lock me up for another year or half a year, I might be able to go straight to the Shaman." His eyes shone when he spoke, clearly treating Qingming as a holy land for cultivation.
Wei Yuan had a headache and said seriously: "Then you don't care about the lives of more than ten thousand clansmen?"
"More than ten thousand? That's not my turn to manage; there are plenty of Great Shamans above; you go find them." Lord Tianyu clearly was not one to take the world as his own responsibility.
Wei Yuan didn't waste his breath and said: "Follow me."
Wei Yuan unlocked the chains, led Lord Tianyu out of the cell, and then carried him flying to the vicinity of Sun Yu's courtyard. Now there were more than ten thousand Shaman tribe corpses piled up in the mortuary, and more corpses were being transported over one after another.
Seeing these corpses, Lord Tianyu suddenly fell silent, the smile on his face disappeared, and sharp light appeared in his eyes. He turned to look at Wei Yuan and asked: "Did they attack again?"
"No, I took down your Wucheng."
Lord Tianyu was greatly shocked. He knew what the original plan of the Wucheng was; after such a long time, there should be at least one hundred thousand troops and multiple Great Shamans stationed in the Wucheng. To say that it could be taken down by Wei Yuan, he didn't believe it at all.
Wei Yuan took him flying to the other side of the mortuary; here a new camp had been built, and the camp was crowded with Shaman tribe members, as far as the eye could see. Lord Tianyu swept over and knew that there were already more than ninety thousand Shaman tribe members in the camp, and new Shaman tribe members were being escorted over one after another.
Seeing the clothes on these Shaman tribe members, Lord Tianyu said in shock: "You really took down the Wucheng?"
"Naturally, it's true. If you want to save them, you only need to do two things."
Wei Yuan stretched out a finger and said: "I can let you go back, but you have to send a ransom that matches your status.
Second, you can use human sacrificial victims to exchange for your own clansmen. One sacrificial victim for one clansman, very cost-effective."
Lord Tianyu shook his head immediately: "This is impossible; these are all ordinary civilians; they can only be exchanged for the worst sacrificial victims. If it's a top-grade sacrificial victim, one can be exchanged for five Shaman tribe civilians."
This made Wei Yuan quite surprised; it turned out that in the eyes of the Shaman tribe themselves, an ordinary Shaman tribe member was not as valuable as a human sacrificial victim?
"Three Shaman tribe members for one top-grade sacrificial victim." Wei Yuan began to bargain.
Lord Tianyu suddenly appeared very embarrassed and said: "What I said is already the lowest price, and this price may not be negotiated."
"Then five. Medium-grade sacrificial victims can be exchanged for three, low-grade for one, and those below the grade, three for one." Wei Yuan said. The so-called below-grade sacrificial victims were human sacrificial victims caught directly from the Broken Domain. These people could not be directly used to sacrifice to heaven and needed to be raised for a period of time.
"You also want those below the grade?" Lord Tianyu was stunned.
"As long as they are people, I want them all."
Lord Tianyu looked at Wei Yuan deeply and said: "You are the first person like this I have ever seen. After I go back, I will fight for the best conditions for you."
Wei Yuan said: "But you don't have much time, at most ten days. You should know that your clansmen cannot live long in the human domain."
"At most three days." Wei Yuan directly carried Lord Tianyu to the edge of the domain, removed all his restraints, and said: "You go."
"Aren't you afraid I'll just leave?" Lord Tianyu asked.
"I believe you." Wei Yuan turned and left.
Lord Tianyu stood for a while, then turned and left, disappearing in an instant.
Wei Yuan didn't fly, but walked a distance slowly. Actually, Wei Yuan didn't believe Lord Tianyu, just wanted to give himself a reason, a reason to kill the Shaman tribe captives.
Actually, as long as they were locked in the domain, even if given enough food, they only needed to pass more than ten days, and all the Shaman tribe members would naturally die, turning into nourishment for the entire domain. Only by forging a Dao Foundation could one survive for a long time in the Human Domain.
If it were someone else, they might lock the Shaman tribe up and wait for them to die, finally thinking that they died themselves.
But Wei Yuan would never deceive himself; he knew very well that this was a massacre. Although there were ten thousand reasons to kill the Shaman tribe, including females and children, Wei Yuan always felt a bit awkward; if he could exchange for some human sacrificial victims, that would be the perfect result.
Wei Yuan shook his head; he was still not ruthless enough, and there would always be a seam left under his hand.
This bit of awkward feeling in his heart would not affect Wei Yuan's decision; if Lord Tianyu didn't return within the agreed time, then these Shaman tribe members would be locked in the domain until they died, turning into nourishment for Qingming.
Seriously speaking, they were killed by Lord Tianyu, Wei Yuan thought so.
!.
At nightfall, Wei Yuan summoned the Taichu Palace crowd again; this time he called Fei Fei Yutong. Wei Yuan felt that this junior sister had considerable potential, and her talent was not much worse than Xiang Xiaoyu's, of course, a bit behind himself.
Fei Fei Yutong was obviously young and still simple, and her views on many things were very naive. Letting her participate in the meeting, at least she could see the reality of the world and fade away from her greenness early.
This was just one reason; another reason Wei Yuan didn't say, but everyone knew, was that only Fei Fei Yutong's talent had the qualifications to hear confidential matters.
Now, except for Cui Yu, all the cultivators participating in the meeting were Immortal Foundations, and in the Immortal Foundation, there were still grades; if one was only on the edge of the river in that galaxy of the Wanxiang Hall, one had no qualifications to participate in this meeting.
Among this batch of Tianqing Hall and Shuiyue Hall disciples who came to train, there were three Immortal Foundations, but the other two only touched the edge of the Immortal Foundation, and Zhang Sheng felt they had no future for cultivation.
Since Zhang Sheng spoke, Wei Yuan naturally had to follow the master's orders.
The only topic of tonight's meeting was opening new fields and the distribution of spiritual food.
Now the domain expanded from a little over a hundred miles to two hundred miles, the area increased to four times the original, and there was a large batch of fields that could be reclaimed.
This was the domain of the Master Chuhe True Person; the old Daoist indicated that after a rough look, there were fifty thousand mu of spiritual fields that could be developed, and the newly added grain fields were even more. Finally, considering many factors, Wei Yuan decided to increase twenty thousand mu of spiritual fields in this period, and increase the ordinary grain fields to five hundred thousand mu.
The food distribution for ordinary people was increased from one and a half catties a day to two catties, and for the elderly, it was increased by half a catty to one and a half catties.
Regarding the distribution of spiritual food, the original common practice was that high-level cultivators and those who needed to fight were prioritized, but Qingming's situation was special; those newly forged Dao Foundation cultivators were consolidating their Dao Foundations day and night, which was extremely hard.
Without their brave progress on the immortal path, there would be no rolling iron water, no armor and weapons piled up like mountains, no ore, no gunpowder.
So everyone agreed that all cultivators, regardless of high or low, regardless of Dao Foundation grade, would be treated equally. Of course, this was the basic treatment distributed by the domain; if there were extra needs, they could exchange them with merits themselves. Qingming cultivators had nothing else, but their merits were overflowing.
After the meeting, Fei Fei Yutong, who had been listening quietly, followed Wei Yuan and asked: "There are clearly tens of millions of catties of grain in the warehouse, why not let everyone eat a little more? Aren't the new fields already being reclaimed?"
Wei Yuan smiled slightly and said: "Before the seedlings in the fields become the rice in the warehouse, they are not grain. Even if they are to be harvested tomorrow, they are not."
"Why?"
Wei Yuan pointed to the endless grain fields in the distance and said: "With one Dao method of mine, I can destroy thousands of mu of land in less than a cup of tea's time. If a Great Shaman descends a blood curse, he can destroy all the grain fields within a hundred miles in an instant. If we eat all the grain now, what will we eat then?"
Fei Fei Yutong was thoughtful and said: "I... understand a little."
Wei Yuan smiled and said: "You don't understand, you just don't want to believe the cruelty of this world. But after today, whether you want to or not, you have to face it."
Fei Fei Yutong took a deep breath and said: "Senior Brother, don't worry! In times of need, I can be as black-hearted as you!"
Watching the young girl's bouncing figure leaving, Wei Yuan felt a lump in his throat.
The so-called 'disciple doesn't learn, it's the master's fault'. It seems the True Persons of the Shuiyue Hall are no better than the Tianqing Hall; a perfectly good young girl was raised crookedly.
After sending Fei Fei Yutong away, Wei Yuan was just about to sit in meditation to do some homework when he suddenly felt a move in his heart, feeling that the spiritual energy in a certain place in the domain had a violent change, and a kind of indescribable evil aura circled, actually forming a huge vortex!
Wei Yuan took off instantly, rushing to the location of the evil aura vortex in the blink of an eye. This was the new city where the teenagers lived, and the center of the vortex was the camp where the pregnant girls lived.
When Wei Yuan arrived, Sun Yu was examining a girl with a high-bulging belly. A moment later, Sun Yu came to Wei Yuan, his expression solemn, and said: "A large number of fetuses in the girls' bellies have suddenly withered and died, while the remaining ones are growing rapidly; now they are already equivalent to more than eight months, and they will give birth before long."
