Chapter 1293 Asking for Advice from the Wasteland Hunter
Zhang Xuan only understood at this time. He didn't expect the other party to have such an idea.
"Can you let me reconsider it?" Zhang Xuan asked.
"Think about it carefully. I'll give you half a year to sort out the chores of this small world. Come back in half a year and report to my Dragon Spine Temple."
After saying this, the figure of Saint Wuyuan disappeared directly into the void.
Saint Wuyuan was feeling very happy at this moment.
"If nothing unexpected happens, this person will definitely agree to serve as a Feather God Guard. As long as he becomes a Feather God Guard, he will have a stable source of income, and his 10,000 Yuanshi-level top-grade spirit stones will be secure."
Originally, it would be enough to collect taxes on one hundred Yuanshi-level top-grade spirit stones.
But when he saw that this world master at the level of refining emptiness was only about two hundred years old, he immediately knew that this person must have a great opportunity.
Since he had such a great opportunity, he naturally wanted to make good use of it, so he directly increased the tax revenue a hundred times.
"Hehe, so what if he's a genius? He still has to work for me, the Great Dao Chijin Division, for nothing."
Fairy gourd world.
"Should I go or not?"
Zhang Xuan's fingertips unconsciously stroked the storage jade slip on his waist, inside which lay the tax collection document sent by the Great Dao Chijin Division.
The red-gold lines on the surface of the jade slip seemed to be wriggling like a living thing, deepening every seven days.
The huge debt owed is like a thousand-pound stone pressing on my chest.
"Apart from going to the Dragon Ridge Temple to serve as a Feather Guard, there seems to be really no other way." Zhang Xuan muttered to himself.
His Tianshu Dharma Eyes fell on the boundary membrane floating in the distance.
Outside the translucent barrier, the boundless void was like a deep sea of ink, with occasional broken starlight passing by.
He had asked some godsend cultivators in the Xianhu small world, but found very little information about the "Yushenwei".
"We must ask someone who knows more about the situation."
Zhang Xuan knew clearly that among all the people he had met in the Boundless Void, only Taohuang Lao, the Lord of the Boundless World, was trustworthy.
After making up his mind, Zhang Xuan no longer hesitated.
He made a magical gesture, and a light blue halo appeared around his body, turning into a stream of light that penetrated the boundary membrane.
The distance between the Immortal Gourd Realm and the Infinite Realm is not too far, but only when you actually travel through it can you experience the vastness of the void.
Zhang Xuan avoided several floating meteorites, and a day later, he finally saw a gray light cocoon floating in front of him - that was the boundary membrane of the Infinite Realm.
He was about to get closer but was bounced back by an invisible force. He looked down and saw that his palm was pressed on a transparent barrier. He felt a tingling pain at his fingertips, as if they were being pricked by countless needles.
"Little guy, you are here as expected." A familiar old voice came from behind the membrane.
The face of the scavenger looked more haggard than a hundred years ago, with sunken eye sockets and prominent cheekbones, but there was still a cunning gleam in his eyes.
He looked Zhang Xuan up and down, with a smile on his face: "After we parted, you really became the master of the world, and it looks like that."
Zhang Xuan immediately clasped his fists and saluted: "Senior, you are so kind. Without your guidance, I would not be where I am today."
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
"I came here this time because I encountered a huge difficulty. I hope you can give me some advice."
The wasteland scavenger raised his hand and pointed, and the barrier opened up like a wave. "First, tell me, the wind in the boundless void has ears."
Zhang Xuan followed him through the boundary membrane, and the moment he stepped into the Infinite Realm, a familiar aura came over him, mixed with a hint of old breath.
The two men landed in front of a quaint stone house. The scavenger waved his hand to remove the restrictions outside the house. The house was simply furnished, with a half-pot of cold tea and a few chipped pottery bowls on the stone table.
"Tell me, it must be something serious that can make you, the new world master, frown." The wasteland hunter poured himself a cup of tea with a few dead leaves floating on the tea. "Let me make it clear first, I don't have any spiritual stones or spiritual treasures. I am poorer than you now."
Zhang Xuan smiled bitterly and told the truth about the Great Dao Chijin Division's demand for tax payment.
When he heard "10,000 Yuanshi-level top-grade spiritual stones", the tea bowl in Taohuang Lao's hand trembled violently, and the tea spilled on the stone table: "Yuanshi-level top-grade spiritual stones? These old tycoons are really greedy!"
He wiped his beard, his eyes serious, and continued:
"It is indeed customary to absorb the Dao rhyme of the Origin Divine Tree when a small world is generated, but usually only crystal-level spirit stones are required. So many top-grade spirit stones of the Yuanshi level at once... This is clearly a huge demand."
"That Void Refining cultivator also said that if I can't pay, I can go to the Dragon Ridge Palace to serve as a Feather Guard. If I serve as a team leader, I can get 20 Yuanshi-level top-grade spirit stones a year, and I can pay it back in 500 years."
Zhang Xuan looked at the Taohuang Lao with a bit of urgency in his eyes: "Senior, do you know what this Yu Shenwei is like? Is it worth going?"
Taohuang Lao was silent for a moment, and tapped the stone table with his fingertips: "The Feather Guards... are considered to be the peripheral forces of the Dragon Spine Palace. They are mainly responsible for managing the miscellaneous affairs of the Dragon Spine Palace. The treatment is indeed good, especially the salary of Yuanshi-level spirit stones, which is generous for a cultivator in the Void Refining Realm." He suddenly narrowed his eyes, "But do you know why the Dragon Spine Palace has so many Feather Guards?"
Henry Zhang shook his head.
Taohuang Lao came closer and lowered his voice: "You have heard of the thirty-three Tianhe forces, right? They are the core forces of the Dragon Spine Palace. Each of them has a deep foundation and has been fighting each other openly and secretly for millions of years. The Feather God Guards are the buffer zone between them."
Zhang Xuan thought of the thirty-three celestial rivers he had heard of in the boundless void.
Each Tianhe River has a combined or even large town. Conflicts occasionally break out between these forces as they compete for resources. If the Yu Shenwei is caught in the middle, it will definitely not end well.
"But don't panic." Taohuang Lao saw his worry and spoke in a slightly slower tone, "This was also the situation of the Feather God Guard tens of thousands of years ago. As for the current situation of the Feather God Guard, I don't know much about it. Moreover, the Feather God Guard is divided into different levels. If you can get a good job like guarding a high-level spiritual medicine garden or guarding a spiritual vein node, not only will you have enough cultivation resources, but you will also get extra 'benefits'. For example, if you are responsible for guarding a sixth-level spiritual vein node, the spiritual energy overflowing from the spiritual vein alone can save you a lot of cultivation resources every year."
"But how can I, a casual cultivator, get such a lucrative job?" Zhang Xuan smiled bitterly, "Maybe I will be sent to the most dangerous place as cannon fodder as soon as I enter."
The wasteland hunter suddenly laughed, with a hint of cunning in his voice: "Don't forget, you now have the Great Dao Chijinsi behind you, and you still owe them a debt. Since they introduced you to the Yu Shenwei, they will not let you die easily, and they are still waiting to collect taxes from you."
These words shocked Zhang Xuan's heart.
I originally thought that the huge debt I owed was a huge burden.
Now it seems that it may also become his greatest amulet.
