"Let me take a good look..."
Zhang Yao walked up to Datong Pu, leaned down, stretched out his finger and pointed at the forehead of a young man.
After a few breaths, he retracted his fingers and shook his head:
"It's indeed an inferior bloodline!"
According to the induction of vitality, the upper limit of this young demon cultivator's vitality is roughly two hundred years, which is only close to twice that of a normal Qi-refining cultivator.
This is enough to show that the opponent's bloodline level is very low, probably at the bottom level among demon cultivators.
However, it is normal for these small families in the demon cultivator to have inferior blood. He didn't have high hopes, so he couldn't be disappointed.
The purpose of this trip is more to test the feasibility of this method and prepare for future plans.
"These demon cultivators are really ugly..."
In the darkness, Zhang Yao stood in front of Datong Shop, looking at the sleeping young man.
The opponent's ears were unusually fat, and he had an obvious pig's nose. His half-open eyes were yellow, and although his hands were the same as those of ordinary people, his feet were like pig's hooves.
This is an obvious characteristic of demonization. It is one of the shortcomings of demon cultivation. It is exposed at a glance without specific methods to suppress it.
He and another young man of the same race were huddled in the corner of Datongpu. There were still some red and swollen marks on their bodies. It was obvious that they had been ostracized and bullied by the 'inmates' on a daily basis.
"In order to prolong your lifespan, is it really worth it to become such a ghost that is neither human nor demon, and be despised by both humans and demons?"
Zhang Yao's eyes were deep and thoughts were surging in his heart:
"Or maybe these young demon cultivators actually have no choice since they were born..."
He shook his head secretly, put aside these distracting thoughts, and began to test the vitality of the other boy.
Not surprisingly, the two are of the same inferior bloodline, and the difference in upper limit of vitality is not obvious, that is, the difference is only a few years.
Half an hour later.
Zhang Yao measured all the demon cultivators in the mining slave rest area of the black jade mining area. After confirming that they were correct, he dived underground again and headed to the mining area of the Taibai fine gold veins.
More than half an hour passed before Zhang Yao completed all the measurement work and quietly sneaked back to the cave.
At this time, the sky was already dark.
Inside the cave.
Li Shuixian, who had been tormented for half the night and had been struck by the Light of Desolate Soul, was still asleep on the bed, completely unaware that Zhang Yao had quietly left.
"Gudong..."
Zhang Yao sat at the table, poured himself a glass of spiritual wine, and drank it all in one gulp.
As expected, the demon cultivator families distributed in the two major mining areas were all of the same low-level bloodline, and no fish slipped through the net.
It is difficult for this low-level bloodline to even be born and build a foundation. It is estimated that it has been abandoned by the demon cultivator organization behind it.
"There are currently no clues, so we have to wait patiently."
He held the wine glass and pondered in silence, constantly thinking in his mind.
Every year, the GCC will send a group of mining slaves from time to time to Suiyu Mountain to replace the number of mining slaves lost due to sudden death from overwork and killing in riots.
However, there are not many opportunities to catch demon cultivators, and most of them are killed on the spot. Therefore, there are very few demon cultivators who can be sent to Suiyu Mountain to work as mining slaves, and it often takes several years to get a batch.
"Let's wait ten years and try our luck."
Zhang Yao poured himself another glass of wine without feeling impatient.
He is currently sitting in Suiyu Mountain and cannot leave his post without permission easily. But now that he has confirmed that the detection method is effective, there will be many opportunities in the future, and he can also use various channels of the GCC to find it.
If he is lucky, he might be able to gain something from the mining slaves sent by Suiyu Mountain.
…………
Time flies, and seven years have passed in the blink of an eye.
The mining area in Suiyu Mountain is still the same, and the four major supervisors have not been replaced.
In the past seven years, Zhang Yao would regularly return to Cangjiang Water Mansion with ore stocks every year, while silently paying attention to the ore slaves sent and waiting patiently.
But it is a pity that after seven consecutive years, the mine slaves sent a total of six batches, but they never encountered the demon cultivator again.
Seven years later, less than half of the original demon cultivator family in the two major mining areas is dead.
On this day, in Zhang Yao's cave.
"Why hasn't this year's mine slave been delivered?"
The regular meeting where the four major executives gathered was coming to an end, and Zhang Yao asked casually.
"Master Qi."
After seven years of working under Zhang Yao, several supervisors had figured out his temper. Lao Zhou stood up and responded concisely:
"According to the last summons, there are a large number of mine slaves to be sent this time, and the deployment time varies from place to place, so it has been delayed for two months."
"I heard that in Leizhou's branch, several demon cultivators were captured, but their cultivation was too low, so they were all prepared to be sent over to work as slaves in the mines."
"oh?"
When Zhang Yao heard this, his expression moved slightly, he nodded and said:
"More people is a good thing. Our mining area is in urgent need of fresh blood."
He said, paused, and said:
"Tomorrow, I will return to Cangjiang Water Mansion to attend the Haifa Conference with this year's ore inventory."
"As usual, after I leave, Suiyu Mountain will be handed over to Narcissus."
"yes."
The four supervisors all claimed that it was so. Li Shuixian had a slight smile on his face, but the other three had long been accustomed to it.
After a few more words of warning, Zhang Yao declared the meeting over and sent them away.
"Narcissus."
After the three supervisors left, Zhang Yao turned to look at Li Shuixian and said:
"After years of research on the blood spell in your body, I have some insights."
"After I return from Cangjiang Water Mansion, I will handle this matter for you."
"...Real person?!"
The surprise came so unexpectedly that Li Shuixian was stunned for a while before he came to his senses, almost jumping with excitement.
It's so pitiful that this knife that has been threatening her life since she was born and hanging above her head finally has hope of being solved today? !
Even if it can't be completely solved, it is enough as long as it can resolve the blood curse on her body.
Originally, she had made up her mind very early on to have no descendants and to cut off the influence of the blood curse on her generation.
But now it seems...
"Ah……"
Zhang Yao smiled gently.
An item will have feelings after being used for a long time, let alone a living person.
Moreover, he has indeed made a lot of research results on blood spells. If it can be solved this time, it will be of certain benefit to him.
the next day.
"boom!"
Zhang Yao controlled the flying sword, a spiritual weapon, and transformed into a streak of cyan light, whistling away from Suiyu Mountain.
After flying thousands of miles, he finally saw the surging Cangjiang River. The escaping light broke through the river and soon arrived at the Cangjiang Water Mansion.
"Master Qingxu!"
"Meet Master Qingxu."
Many Qi Refining monks along the way saluted and gave way to him with respectful expressions.
"Shirakawa Master."
Zhang Yao took the lead in arriving at Zhenren Baihe's cave and found him.
"Master Qingxu, I haven't seen you for a year."
Master Baihe smiled slightly and gestured:
"Give me the things. I'll put them down in the treasure house first. After making up the registration, we can talk again."
"good."
Zhang Yao nodded slightly, took out the special storage bag that had been prepared, and handed it to Master Bai He.
After Master Baihe counted everything correctly, he apologized and hurriedly left the cave and headed for the treasure house.
After a while.
Master Bai He came back and continued to entertain Zhang Yao. After the two chatted for several hours, Zhang Yao stood up and left.
After leaving Master Baihe's cave, he first went to see Master Haihe, and then went to the caves of the remaining Masters Zhuji, visiting and reminiscing one by one.
After so many years, he has long since integrated into the GCC and has become friends with many foundation-building masters.
"……hey-hey."
In a luxurious, kitsch and resplendent cave, Peng Yuexian, a fat man with a bald head, chuckled, winked and said:
"How about it, fellow Taoist Qingxu, does that girl taste good?"
Zhang Yao was startled for a moment, then he understood who he was talking about and laughed:
"Not bad, very good."
"Then it seems that fellow Taoist got a good deal. I can tell from the first glance that that woman is very handsome..."
Peng Yue touched his chin first and smiled, but his tone revealed that he didn't care.
He was a dignified Foundation Establishment Master, and there were many beautiful female cultivators vying to be his cauldron. If he really cared about Li Shuixian so much, he wouldn't have accidentally learned about it many years later.
"...By the way, fellow Taoist Qingxu."
After the two chatted for a while, Peng Yuexian revealed another piece of news mysteriously:
"Did you know? In the past two days, a big event happened in the world of Dali Cultivation!"
"oh?"
Zhang Yao raised his eyebrows and asked:
"What's up?"
"hey-hey……"
Peng Yuexian laughed in a low voice, but deliberately let it slip, shaking his head and saying:
"The Dharma conference will be held tomorrow, and you will definitely know about it."
"This matter has nothing to do with you. At least the tasks assigned by the above, I estimate that 80% of them will fall on you."
"Is it……"
Zhang Yao's heart trembled, and he suddenly thought of something.
Coming from the top of the GCC, it must be the task handed down by Fu Hai Zong. But what tasks does Fu Hai Zong have that he must do?
Zhang Yao thought of this and pretended to be surprised:
"Falling on me? No way?"
"I want to sit in the Suiyu Mountain and look after the two major mining areas, but I don't have much time to do!"
"Well……"
Peng Yue was startled for a moment, scratched his head, and said:
"I don't know about this either. I chatted with Master Haihe two days ago and he told me that he was prepared to leave the matter to you to resolve."
Zhang Yao heard this and said directly:
"Really? Then I'm a little curious. Why don't you, Lao Peng, just tell me directly? I won't bother to make another trip to ask Master Haihe."
"Alright alright……"
Lao Peng spread his hands and said:
"Actually, although it is a major event in the world of immortality in Dali, it is still more than a hundred years old."
"You should still remember the recruitment order issued by Tianbao Tower, right?"
"certainly."
Zhang Yao's eyes flashed, but his tone remained unchanged:
"Tianbao Tower's recruitment order caused quite a stir in the southwestern countries."
"Although I am young and the recruitment order was revoked when I was born, I still heard about this matter..."
