"Wanjie Lou's oldest customer is actually less than 30 years old?"
Hongjun and Yang Mei were completely dumbfounded by this data. They felt that their worldview had been completely refreshed. They never thought that this would be the result.
If Wanjie Lou existed even longer than the primal chaos, they would also believe it. Even if it was billions of chaos eras, they would still be able to accept it.
But it was less than 30 years? They really couldn't accept it. This time had completely refreshed their worldview.
In less than 30 years, Wanjie Lou had grown to this extent. This was too unimaginable.
The two kept refreshing the magic phone, searching for information about Wanjie Lou. The more they searched, the more they knew. Their faces darkened. Their brows were almost knitted into a ball, and their faces became a little distorted.
Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youjian, Song Taizong Zhao Guangyi, these emperors of the mortal world, formed a small alliance. In less than 30 years, they actually went from mortals who didn't know anything about cultivation to a rank 8 powerhouse.
A python in a technological world, without any talent for cultivation, without any intelligence, had actually become an immortal.
Qingyun Sect was a cultivation sect in a small thousand world. Not to mention Qingyun Sect, even in the world they were in, there wasn't a true immortal. Now, almost all the elders of Qingyun Sect had become immortals.
… …
30 years, a mere 30 years had changed so much.
They had spent 100 million years or 10 billion years to cultivate to their current realm. It was so long that they couldn't even remember clearly.
And customers like Wanjie Lou had used less than a ten thousandth of their time, or even a ten thousandth of their time, to almost reach their realm.
Some of the Wanjie Lou customers who came from a good background and came from a high-grade world had even surpassed them in terms of strength.
Hong Yi, Sky Abode's Xiao Yan, Lin Dong, Ye Fan, etc. These people weren't even 100 years old, but their strength had almost stepped into their realm. There were even a few whose battle prowess wasn't inferior to the two of them.
At that moment, Hongjun and Yang Mei had the urge to hug each other and cry bitterly. They wanted to hug each other for warmth. However, at the same time, they also felt a sense of desolation.
Hong Jun and Old Ancestor Yang Mei finally understood why the people of the Myriad Worlds Tavern looked at them as if they were idiots when they revealed a relieved expression and even a trace of excitement when they chose the second option.
It turned out that there wasn't much of a difference between the two punishments given by the shopkeeper.
The first option was to abolish their cultivation and banish them to the mortal world. However, it did not remove their right to enter Wanjie Lou.
In other words, if they accepted the first option, they would still be Wanjie Lou's customers.
However, compared to the second option, their early punishment seemed to be especially severe, and they would have to start from scratch.
However, if the shop owner didn't take away their comprehension of the Great Dao, it wouldn't take too long for them to rise.
Emperor Chong Zhen, Zhu Youjian, Yue Buqun, and even a python that had just gained sentience, all of them were able to become immortals and transform into dragons in a short span of twenty to thirty years. If they had high-level cultivation experience, their growth should be much faster than these people.
Thinking about it, they should be able to recover to their current strength in around 10 years. Even if their luck wasn't good, they should be able to recover after spending 20 to 30 years.
Now that they chose the second option, on the surface, they still had the strength of the High Stage Nine realm.
However, if Wanjie Lou continued to let Old Ancestor Yang Mei provide willow tree hearts, Old Ancestor Yang Mei would have to sit in the primal chaos at all times, absorbing the primal chaos spiritual energy to condense willow tree hearts. He wouldn't be able to rest for even a moment.
Similarly, if Wanjie Lou kept assigning tasks to Hongjun and made him complete them, he would be constantly busy, not giving him time to rest.
If a thousand years later, East Emperor Taiyi, who had entered Wanjie Lou a few months earlier than them, might be able to turn them into ashes with a single glare.
After thinking through all of this, Hongjun and Old Ancestor Yang Mei felt their bodies become as heavy as a thousand catties, as if someone had placed two or three Mount Pangu on top of them. With every step they took, they felt as if they had used up all of their strength and were completely exhausted.
The two of them had a sorrowful expression on their faces, as if they were two resentful women who had been repeatedly abandoned by others. Their pale and slightly black faces were like the bridegroom who had entered the bridal chamber on the night of their wedding night, but he, the bridegroom, had become the gatekeeper instead. Their uncontrollably trembling legs were like fresh meat that had just walked out of a prison cell …
A thousand years!
At this moment, for the first time, Hongjun and Old Ancestor Yang Mei felt that a thousand years was actually so long. It could be divided into 100 decades, 12,000 months, and 360,000 days.
A thousand years later, these two high-level ninth rank cultivators might be like Wanjie Lou's current first rank customers, at the bottom of Wanjie Lou.
They really couldn't accept this terrifying gap in status. Even with their state of mind, they couldn't accept such a huge gap in status.
"Perhaps the shop owner won't let us be in a state of punishment every day. After all, the stronger we are, the more value we can create."
Old Ancestor Yang Mei's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said somewhat excitedly.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. The shop owner would probably let them accept tasks while also having time to cultivate.
After all, with Hongjun's potential, it shouldn't be a problem for him to become a tenth rank expert in a short period of time.
The wealth created by a tenth rank expert and a ninth rank expert wasn't on the same level at all.
A day's worth of labor from a tenth rank expert might be comparable to a month's worth of labor from a ninth rank expert, or even far exceed this multiple.
Thinking of this, Old Ancestor Yang Mei felt much better.
"Damn it, are you a scumbag?"
Hongjun really wanted to curse out loud and question Old Ancestor Yang Mei for being so excited because he still had labor to excavate value.
However, his slightly relaxed brows completely betrayed him.
"It's good if that's the case!"
For some reason, the words that were on the tip of his tongue had taken on a completely different meaning.
Hongjun also understood in his heart that Old Ancestor Yang Mei's guess could be said to be lucky for them.
They were afraid that the shop owner wouldn't even look at their potential labor force, and might even forget to hand them over to Wanjie Lou's employees to deal with.
In order to faithfully carry out the shop owner's orders, the Wanjie Lou's employees would definitely make them work without rest for a thousand years.
"Fellow Daoist Hongjun, can I have a word or two with you?"
