Martial artists cultivated, fought for opportunities, fought for cultivation methods, and fought for treasures. These were the struggles of individual martial artists, and just like the struggles of personal opinions, the struggles between sects were nothing more than these.
Only with enough resources could a sect flourish for a long time and become more and more powerful. But now, the newly established Sacred Palace was like a rootless duckweed. It looked powerful, but its foundation was too strong. In particular, the resources in its hands were pitifully little compared to the other six quasi-saint sects.
Perhaps nothing could be seen in a short period of time, but as time passed, the Sacred Palace would most likely face many problems. At that time, the Sacred Palace wouldn't even need others to do anything. The Sacred Palace would fend for itself.
Therefore, resources were very important. Since the Sacred Palace had rewarded them, they naturally had to seize the resources, especially the resources that once belonged to the Human Race. Only by truly grasping these resources in their hands could the Sacred Palace truly contend with the other six quasi-saint sects.
Quickly returning to the backyard, Xiao Chen gathered Gudu Wuya, Huangfu Ao, and the others. Of course, Qin Shuirou and the other two girls were also present. Everyone gathered together. Xiao Chen didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.
"There is a supreme-grade spirit vein on the Bai Mo Continent, but it's in the hands of the Liwang Sect. I guess the people of the Liwang Sect might have descended because of this."
He directly told everyone about the supreme-grade spirit vein. Hearing this, everyone present was intelligent and quickly understood what Xiao Chen meant. Ouyang Rouxue spoke at this time.
"You want to snatch it?"
Ouyang Rouxue spoke out Xiao Chen's thoughts, but it wasn't accurate. In response, Xiao Chen smiled and shook his head. "Junior Sister Ouyang, this is not snatching. It originally belonged to us. The Bai Mo Continent is the territory of the Human Race. Since this supreme-grade spirit vein is located on the Bai Mo Continent, shouldn't it belong to our Sacred Palace?"
"The Human Race was once weak, but now that we have the Sacred Palace, it's time to take back what once belonged to us. Therefore, junior sister Ouyang, we are not robbing."
Huangfu Ao was the first to support Xiao Chen. "That's right. Brother Xiao Chen is right. Since this supreme-grade spirit vein is located on the Hundred Mo Continent, it belongs to our human race. We couldn't do anything before because we weren't strong enough, but now that we have the strength, we have to take it back no matter what."
Huangfu Ao agreed, and the rest of the crowd followed suit. No one objected, and they all agreed with Xiao Chen's decision.
As disciples of the Sacred Palace, they were naturally not afraid of the Liwang Sect. The supreme-grade spirit vein was very precious, so they naturally couldn't just let it go. If they had the strength, they would definitely snatch it back.
Everyone had the same opinion. Seeing this, Xiao Chen smiled slightly, then said softly, "Okay, then we'll wait for Deacon Zhou Fan to return. We'll immediately set off for the supreme-grade spirit vein."
Just as Xiao Chen and the others decided to set off, Tong Huang and the other Liwang Sect members were already on their way. Because they weren't flying in the starry sky, the starship wasn't moving very fast.
Standing on the deck, Wang Zhong looked at Tong Huang in front of him and asked, "Senior brother Tong Huang, I have a feeling that the Sacred Palace won't just stand by and do nothing this time. Since Xiao Chen is on the Bai Mo Continent, he definitely won't just give up on this supreme-grade spirit vein. After all, this is the territory of the Human Race."
Xiao Chen and the others knew that Tong Huang and the others had arrived on the Bai Mo Continent. Similarly, Tong Huang also knew that Xiao Chen was on the Bai Mo Continent. As for how he found out, the Liwang Sect naturally had their own channels. Moreover, Xiao Chen didn't deliberately hide his whereabouts when he came to the Bai Mo Continent, so it wasn't difficult to find out. Otherwise, Yue 'er wouldn't have come looking for him personally.
Upon hearing Wang Zhong's words, Tong Huang didn't seem to care at all and smiled slightly.
"So what if we don't stand by and do nothing? Strength speaks for itself. If Xiao Chen is really strong, what's the harm in returning this supreme-grade spirit vein to him?
"Furthermore, I'm very curious about the First Holy Son of the Sacred Palace. I want to see if he's worthy of being compared to us."
Wang Zhong didn't care about Xiao Chen. Upon hearing Tong Huang's words, a look of disdain appeared on his face. "How can Xiao Chen be compared to senior brother Tong Huang? Back in the Tian Yan Sect's secret realm, Xiao Chen wasn't Mo Xie's opponent at all. His strength is still far from the First Holy Son's."
Wang Zhong had personally witnessed Xiao Chen's strength. In his opinion, there was still a huge gap between Xiao Chen and the First Holy Son. Of course, what Wang Zhong didn't know was that that was a few months ago. With the awakening of the Heavenly Path Sword Embryo and the Dustless Sword, Xiao Chen's strength had already undergone earth-shattering changes.
In the face of Wang Zhong's disdain, Tong Huang smiled and said, "In that case, there's even less need to worry. If he wants you to take back the supreme-grade spirit vein without strength, he'll only be asking for humiliation."
He didn't take Xiao Chen seriously at all. Half a day later, Tong Huang and the others arrived at the supreme-grade spirit vein on the Hundred Mo Continent.
A small city stood at the foot of a huge mountain. The supreme-grade spirit vein was located in the interior of this mountain range, and it extended all the way to the ground. This city was built by the Liwang Sect personally to protect this supreme-grade spirit vein.
There were experts from the Liwang Sect guarding the city. In addition, there were simple tents around the city. In these tents lived ordinary humans with low or no cultivation.
However, all of these humans looked very thin, and their clothes were very dirty and messy.
There were a lot of them. There were at least 100,000 of them who looked extremely miserable. They only had one purpose here, and that was to mine the spirit vein.
They had to work every day, and there were also heavy tasks. If they couldn't complete them, they would naturally be beaten up. To put it bluntly, these humans were slaves here.
Barbarian warriors stood guard around the human tent area. When they looked at these humans, their eyes were full of disdain and ridicule.
Perhaps they had been abused for too long, but there was no light in these humans' eyes. They were all like walking corpses as they carried on with their tasks.
There were more than 100,000 slaves here, but they had no human rights. They were even worse than pigs and dogs. It had to be said that this was indeed the tragedy of the weak. Because the human race was not strong enough, the Barbarian Race not only snatched the spirit vein that originally belonged to the human race, but also captured humans as slaves to mine the spirit vein for them. From time to time, they would humiliate, beat, and scold these human slaves.
