"The General Roll Platform beneath this person's feet is an ancient artifact refined from an entire piece of mutated ore …" As a mark was planted in Yi Yun's body, Bai Yueyin's voice sounded in Yi Yun's soul sea. "Mutated ores have an inexplicable connection. It can leave a record of the other Chaos Ores you obtained. When the time comes, the Taixia Ancient Mining's people just need to refer to the record to get you to hand over the corresponding amount of ores."
What the Taixia Ancient Mining truly valued were the extremely rare mutated ores.
As for the typical crude ores, they were only used to maintain the Taixia Ancient Mining's daily expenses.
These rare ores would be sent up to be refined by the upper echelons of Taixia or used to purchase natural treasures.
The Taixia upper echelons were the soul of the Taixia Ancient Mining. It was inevitable for ordinary warriors to be squeezed dry.
The Taixia's cut was not fixed. Many a time, the price of rare mutated ores was immeasurable. But if they were handed to the Taixia in exchange for cultivation techniques or pills at the Divine Lord level, Yi Yun felt that it was a loss.
However, ordinary warriors typically had no other choice. Without the Taixia Ancient Mining, they would not even be able to enter the mining zone. They also did not have the means to obtain cultivation techniques. Cultivating in the Martial Dao was extremely difficult for them!
"Let me give all of you a word of advice. Do not hide ores for yourself. Once I discover it, the consequences will be dire! In addition, although these mutated ores are extremely valuable, you will not be able to handle them even if I give them to you. Without a Crystal Refinement Master, there is no way to refine and purify them. Directly absorbing them will result in your body exploding. If you sell them, you might even get yourself killed. "
"If all of you are ready, we can set off!"
Steward Zhou waved his hand as the hatch opened. Through the hatch, Yi Yun saw a misty ancient landmass. It was vast and boundless, extending all the way into the deep void.
"Everyone, split into squads and take the spatial shuttle to the Xuanyuan Dune …"
Taixia's spirit cruiser was docked there, still a distance away from the Xuanyuan Dune.
And on Yi Yun's squad's spatial shuttle, Yi Yun saw a person — Cang Gu.
He was dressed in a black robe. He was thin and his face was as pale as a corpse.
When he sensed Yi Yun looking over, he chuckled. His smile had a sinister look to it.
Yi Yun turned a blind eye as he stepped onto the spatial shuttle.
Behind Yi Yun were Taishan, Tie Mu, Songyue, and Chuan.
The spatial shuttle was very big, about ten meters long. It was very spacious for six people to stand on it.
Whoosh!
Cang Gu drove the spatial shuttle through the void and flew towards the Xuanyuan Dune.
The other miners on the spirit ship also disembarked. Although there were many of them, compared to the vast Xuanyuan Dune, they were nothing more than a speck of dust, completely unremarkable.
On the spatial shuttle, Yi Yun was constantly studying the Command Platform Dao patterns that had been imprinted in his body. He discovered that the Dao pattern itself was a tracing mark. With this mark, the typical miner would definitely be captured if they tried to escape. Furthermore, they had a contract with the Taixia Ancient Mining.
"It's not difficult for me to break this Dao pattern. However, I don't have much strength right now. The most important thing now is to recover my strength …"
Yi Yun muttered to himself. Even Steward Zhou was only at the Divine Lord realm. His strength was on par with Eclipse Arhat and Sacred Horizon Divine Lord. He posed no threat to Yi Yun.
The Taixia Ancient Mining's tracking Dao patterns were sufficient for typical warriors, but how could the Taixia Ancient Mining imagine that a freak like Yi Yun would infiltrate their mining team as a last resort?
The Taixia Ancient Mining's troops did not rush deep into the Xuanyuan Dune. Instead, they stopped in the periphery of the Xuanyuan Dune.
There was actually a city here!
This was not surprising. Many major factions entered the Xuanyuan Dune to mine all year round. There were bound to be people who needed to rest and replenish their supplies.
The city was not large in size. It spanned a radius of tens of kilometers. The buildings were not magnificent, but they gave off an ancient and solemn feeling. Nearly all the buildings were constructed from boulders mined from the Xuanyuan Dune. Many of the buildings' walls were unpolished, revealing the protruding edges of the rocks.
The pedestrians on the streets were mostly wrapped in black cloaks or wearing masks. In short, it was impossible to tell their true identities.
However, Yi Yun could tell that most of the pedestrians were not humans!
This was the Chaos Heavens, a universe where hundreds of races intermingled!
As Yi Yun walked along the streets of the city, he saw many stalls. Some sold weapons, some sold pills, and some sold all sorts of ores. Yi Yun saw a street that was filled with slave stalls.
The stalls here were all large platforms, and the slaves on the platforms were men and women of all races.
Although the male slaves were dressed in rags, they were mostly strong. Their prices varied greatly depending on their cultivation levels. They could be used as miners, and the sellers had planted slave marks on them. As long as the new owner paid the money, they would be recognized as their master.
As for female slaves, most of them were sex slaves. Yi Yun saw many young Fey girls. They had good figures, but they were likely forced by the sellers to show their Fey traits, such as cat ears, fox tails, scales at the corners of their eyes, etc.
The Xuanyuan Dune had a severe imbalance between men and women. Many people even stayed in the Xuanyuan Dune for more than a decade. These female slaves were used as tools to satisfy their lust, so their fates were obvious.
This was a bloody and dark world. There were no rules, nor was there a need for any disguise.
Strength reigned supreme, and one could do as they pleased!
Although the Sinkhole held the same principle, the Sinkhole needed to be covered in a layer of morality. But in the Chaos Heavens, it was completely naked.
"This is a trading zone. If there's a need, you can buy some things. I will be here all the time. The mining will last for a year."
A muslin dressed woman with voluptuous breasts and a slim waist said.
She was Purple Succubus, the hall master of the Taixia Ancient Mining's Purple Light Hall. When Yi Yun first entered the Taixia Ancient Mining, Purple Succubus was the one who gave him his first salary. Now, Yi Yun was under the jurisdiction of the Purple Light Hall.
There were more than twenty teams in the Purple Light Hall, and Cang Gu's team was only one of them.
However, Cang Gu came from the Soul race. Be it his mental strength or personal strength, he was abnormally powerful. Rumors said that Cang Gu's strength was even above some hall masters.
If not for Cang Gu's sinister and temperamental personality, he would probably have long become one of the hall masters in Taixia.
"Hehe! All of you, follow me in a while. Let's first buy some supplies, "Cang Gu said to Yi Yun and company as he licked his lips.
Cang Gu licked his lips as he spoke to Yi Yun and company. Without Cang Gu leading the way, typical warriors would be like headless flies. The Xuanyuan Dune was just too huge. Finding Chaos Ores was easier said than done. It was very likely that Tie Mu and company would be killed before they could find any supplies.
