2471 Chapter 2362, nine serenities evil wind
Su Yu tried again and secretly used the power close to the Grandmaster realm.
In the end, it still brought out a series of sparks.
Moreover, he only dug a dent as thick as a finger. It was far from enough to bury a dao rice seed.
Su Yu estimated that with his current speed, whether he could dig a hundred holes in a day was really quite difficult.
He looked up at the female supervisor and asked, “What if the mission is not completed?”
The female supervisor gave a half-smile and said, “You will understand when night comes.”
Judging from her attitude, if he really could not complete the mission, the consequences seemed to be quite serious.
Alright, Su Yu could only be a little more serious and cultivate the vegetable field meticulously.
At first, his speed was very slow, but after he familiarized himself with it, he sped up a little.
Therefore, he successfully planted 100 grains of dao rice in the evening.
He put down his hoe and looked up. He saw a few old slaves who had been in the vegetable garden for a long time. They had long finished cultivating and were collecting a time crystal from the female supervisor.
Su Yu walked over. The female supervisor looked at Su Yu in surprise.
It was an extremely difficult task for a normal Daoist master Huang, even if he was in the late stage of the Grandmaster realm, to cultivate 100 grains of dao rice in a day.
She had given this mission to make things difficult for Su Yu. She wanted him to understand the rules and bribe her with some benefits.
She didn’t expect Su Yu to not only complete the mission within the stipulated time, but he was also slightly ahead. He was almost comparable to those old slaves.
She didn’t know that Su Yu’s true cultivation was Daoist Xuan.
Daoist Huang might be exhausted and difficult to complete, but Su Yu was more relaxed.
“Mission completed. Today’s time crystal.”The female supervisor took out a beige time crystal and handed it to Su Yu, but then said, “Tomorrow, you open up a vegetable field further north. The amount of mission is 200 grains of Dao Rice.”
Su Yu raised his eyebrows.
200 grains. He thought that if he used all his strength, he should be able to complete it.
However, this woman was clearly trying to make things difficult for him.
His lips moved, but in the end, he fell silent.
This was because he keenly noticed that the palm that the woman was holding in her sleeve moved slightly, as if she had grabbed onto something.
She was waiting for Su Yu to resist and find a reason to attack.
“Yes!”Su Yu said calmly.
Hearing this, a hint of disappointment flashed across the female supervisor’s eyes. She nodded her snow-white finger lightly and said, “En.”
After a day of hard work, Su Yu’s whereabouts were unknown.
He watched as the group of people walked towards a huge cave in the underground mine. He followed them.
He had just taken a few steps when his arm was bumped by someone.
Turning his head, he saw a skinny, haggard-looking, ragged middle-aged man. His eyes were deeply sunken and his expression was bitter.
He lowered his voice and said to Su Yu, “Fortunately, you didn’t say anything. Otherwise, you would have been whipped.”
The Hoe here was abnormally hard. Su Yu didn’t think that the so-called whip would be an ordinary whip.
If he was really whipped, he wouldn’t feel good.
Sure enough, the female supervisor was looking for an opportunity to punish him.
“Thank you for the Reminder.”Su Yu smiled and kept a distance.
It was best to maintain the proper vigilance in a strange environment and a stranger.
“We are all unlucky people. It’s our duty.”The middle-aged man patted Su Yu’s shoulder. “My Name Is Lao Jin. I come from an outer realm world. I have been here for nine thousand years. If you have any questions, you can come and find me.”
Hearing this, the corner of Su Yu’s mouth twitched.
Nine thousand years?
According to the three chiefs, one crystal of time could be obtained in a day. Nine thousand years was enough for Lao Jin to leave the Tai Yi sect and roam the world freely, right?
Why was he still a slave here?
“My name is Su Yu, Uncle Jin. May I ask how many time crystals have you accumulated over the years?”Su Yu’s eyes flashed as he asked.
Lao Jin smiled dryly. “Take a guess.”
If he wanted to cross the dream boundary and leave this area, he would need at least a hundred years, right?
However, he was still a slave. It was enough to show that he did not even have a time crystal of a hundred years.
“Do you have the time Crystal of ten years?”Su Yu said a very conservative number.
“Hehe...”Lao Jin shook his head and bitterly stretched out nine fingers.
Su Yu was surprised, “Nine hundred, that is indeed not a lot.”
Compared to nine thousand years of hard labor, nine hundred was indeed too little. It was far from enough to support him to leave Tai Yi sect.
“It’s nine!”Lao Jin said in pain.
Even though Su Yu was mentally prepared, he couldn’t help but feel shocked.
9,000 years had passed, and now, only nine had been accumulated?
This number was really too incredible, right?
“Is Tai Yi sect not keeping its word?”Su Yu thought of it with just a thought.
“No! On this point, Tai Yi sect still follows the rules. They never owe any time crystals,”Lao Jin said slowly.
How could this be?
“You’ll know why when you come with me.”Jin led Su Yu into the huge cave along with the huge crowd.
The cave was filled with people. All the slaves were lining up in front of a counter to buy a scroll.
“What’s That?”
“It’s your lounge for tonight,”Jin said. “A scroll corresponds to a lounge. The Price Is... half a time crystal.”
Half of the income from a day’s work was taken away.
“Is it a mandatory purchase?”What would happen if he didn’t buy it?
Old Jin shook his head. “Whether I buy it or not depends on my wish. But if I don’t buy it, I’m afraid I Won’t live through the night.”
Why?
“This underground mine runs through the nine nether world. It’s fine during the day, but every night, the evil wind of the nine nether world will blow. Once it blows, the vitality will be greatly swept away,”old Jin said. “It’s fine if the vitality is strong, but if the vitality is weak, they will die that night!”
Nine Nether regions?
Was there really a nine Nether region in this world?
If it was in the past, Su Yu probably wouldn’t believe that there was a nine Nether region in this world.
However, everything in the eight-star civilization had changed Su Yu’s past knowledge.
Therefore, he had reservations.
“Even Dao Master Xuan doesn’t dare to stay in the nine nether winds?”Su Yu asked.
Old Jin said, “Dao Master Xuan can, but he won’t be able to withstand it for more than three days. After three days, he will definitely die.”
Was that so?
As the two of them conversed, they went to the counter.
Su Yu hesitated for a moment and spent half of his time crystallizing to buy a paper roll.
After buying the paper roll, Lao Jin said, “Let’s go and eat.”
Su Yu hesitated, “With our cultivation level, we don’t need to eat anymore, right?”
Looking at the large group of people heading towards another cave, Su Yu felt that there should be another problem.
“In the outside world, we may not have to eat, but in this mine, we can’t survive for a few days without eating!”Lao Jin said.
Su Yu was skeptical. Under his lead, they came to another wide counter.
Many martial artists went forward to buy food.
The food was simple and crude, without any Taoist aura. It was not an exaggeration to call it dog food.
However, all the martial artists were rushing to buy it, afraid that they would be one step behind.
Lao Jin also joined in the scramble. He spent half a time to buy a portion. “Little brother Su, if you don’t buy it, you might feel very uncomfortable tomorrow morning.”
Looking at the dark food, Su Yu shook his head.
No matter how uncomfortable it was, it was better than eating these things.
The two of them chatted for a while more. Su Yu received a lot of information that the newbies did not know. He held a paper roll in his hand and went to the rest room that he bought.
All the lounges stood side by side. There was a barrier outside.
By relying on the paper scroll, one could open the barrier and enter to rest.
When he opened the lounge, he was surprised to find that the owner of the lounge beside him was the young man on the platform who was particularly active in asking questions.
Su Yu remembered that the young man seemed to have been drawn to mine.
Compared to the relaxed Su Yu, the young man was like a completely different person.
His clothes had become unkempt, and he looked haggard and exhausted. It was as if he had gone through countless life and death situations.
His eyes were heavy and powerless.
He turned his head to look at Su Yu and forced a smile. “Hello.”
Then, he moved his heavy legs and opened his resting room with great difficulty.
“Is it that exaggerated?”Su Yu grinned. He had thought that planting rice was already very tiring.
Now it seemed that mining was several times more tiring.
Shrugging his shoulders, Su Yu entered the lounge.
The room was empty. There were only four walls made of mysterious purple ores.
“In this case, under normal circumstances, it is basically impossible to get the time crystals from the Tai Yi sect to the outside world,”Su Yu sighed.
A paper scroll cost half a time crystal, and a meal cost the last half.
All the time crystals that he had worked hard to obtain in one day were spent.
No Wonder Lao Jin had only accumulated nine time crystals in nine thousand years.
Unless there were special circumstances, he couldn’t even accumulate one time crystal.
Looking at the remaining half of the time crystal in his palm, Su Yu’s eyes shone. “Perhaps it’s better for me to stay in the Tai Yi sect for the time being.”
From Lao Jin’s description, Su Yu knew that all transactions in the entire dream boundary were settled with the time crystal.
The time crystal was the currency!
The crystals and Dao currency from the outer realms were the most worthless things in the dream boundary. No one would want them even if they were thrown on the ground.
Only the time crystal could buy the things one wanted.
And the place with the most things was the 344 sects of the dream boundary!
Tai Yi sect was one of the 344 sects.
The sect stored a large amount of things that were hard to find in the outside world, and the people in the sect, including slaves, had the right to buy them.
As long as you had the time crystals!
Su Yu was completely clueless about the dream boundaries and didn’t even know the direction. If he left the Tai Yi sect now, where could he go?
It would be better to use the time crystals to buy some information in the Tai Yi sect.
Perhaps he could find some clues about the evil daughter Palace.
Feeling the time crystal in his palm, Su Yu thought for a moment and immediately focused on studying it.
He found that the composition of the time crystal was all very pure time domain.
After thinking for a moment, he pulled out a corner of the blindfold and shot out a time domain.
Then, he clenched his five fingers and forcefully condensed the time domain.
Tick-tock --
Not long after, a dark yellow crystal appeared in his palm.
It looked exactly the same as the time crystal, but the color was too different.
Moreover, it only existed for a few breaths before it melted into the time domain.
“The time crystal, I should be able to replicate it, but it takes a lot of time.”Su Yu thought to himself, it was unrealistic to expect to obtain a large amount of time crystals in a short period of time. “I have to be more serious about tomorrow’s rice planting.”
