Chapter 414: Brutal Nine-Layered Heaven Competition

In the banquet hall of Qianyuan Sect!

Xu Chengzi was talking to himself with meaningless words of thanks.

Lin Heng and the other two watched his performance quietly.

Of course, with such a good opportunity, Lin Heng would not miss the chance to make some money.

'Congratulations to the host for successfully signing in at the banquet hall of Qianyuan Sect and receiving the system reward of the Qianyuan Sword. '

Qianyuan Sword: A high-level Chaos Spiritual Treasure, it is the weapon of Qianyuanzi, the founder of Qianyuan Sect.

After discovering that it was only a high-level Chaos Spiritual Treasure, Lin Heng gave up the idea of ​​continuing to make money in Qianyuan Sect.

Although some people from Qianyuan Sect went to higher levels of the Ninth Heaven, none of their ancestors had broken through to the Heavenly Venerable Realm, otherwise they would not be unable to produce even one Heavenly Venerable Source Treasure.

After about a cup of tea in the banquet hall, Xu Chengzi finally finished his polite words.

Then Xu Chengzi asked Lin Heng and his friends what they planned to do in the Ninth Heaven.

Situ Jiannan and Lin Heng were still considering how to say it, but Sun Yuan casually said, "Of course, we came here to try to gain some sect power."

Sun Yuan had been in the turbulent sand sea for so many years, so he naturally didn't have much scheming. In addition, he didn't take Xu Chengzi seriously, so he spoke casually.

After hearing this, Xu Chengzi's face changed slightly.

Situ Jiannan sighed inwardly, feeling a bit bad, but fortunately, Qianyuan Sect didn't have any great power, so he wasn't afraid.

However, something that Lin Heng and Situ Jiannan had never expected happened. After a brief moment of deep brows and deep thought, Xu Chengzi actually took the initiative to propose: "If you don't mind, I'm willing to give you 300,000 li of land north of Qianyuan Sect and one-third of the source veins in my sect to help you build your power. How about it?"

Lin Heng glanced at Xu Chengzi with interest. Before coming, he heard Situ Jiannan say that the entire Qianyuan Sect, with its forces, only occupied a million li of land, but now they have given nearly one-third.

Especially the source vein, which is the source stone mine, and the source stone can be mined continuously. In the Ninth Heaven where the resources are not too abundant, this thing is extremely precious, and Qianyuan Sect is still willing to share it. If

you say that Xu Chengzi is out of gratitude, Lin Heng probably won't believe it even if he is beaten to death.

If it is not gratitude, then Xu Chengzi must want to exchange for greater benefits from him.

Lin Heng didn't waste any time and asked directly: "Brother Xu Chengzi, is there anything we can help you with?"

Seeing Lin Heng's question, Xu Chengzi no longer concealed it and pretended to be honest and said with a smile: "The source vein occupied by my Qianyuan Sect does not actually belong to our sect, but is owned by three forces. However, if the three parties exploit it at the same time, there will definitely be trouble, so we set a rule to hold a competition every hundred years, and the strongest party will get the right to exploit the source vein."

Lin Heng nodded: "You mean, you want us to help Qianyuan Sect to fight for the source vein?"

"That's right!"

Xu Chengzi agreed, but Lin Heng and Sun Yuan frowned.

Helping Qianyuan Sect to seize the source vein, only giving one third, this guy seems a little unkind.

Xu Chengzi also saw what Lin Heng and Sun Yuan were thinking from their expressions, and immediately explained: "You may have some misunderstandings. 50% of the source veins that my Qianyuan Sect has taken must be handed over. As for the remaining 50%, I will give you one third of the total amount."

With this explanation, Lin Heng and Sun Yuan were able to accept it a little.

After all, the remaining 50% was equivalent to giving most of it to themselves, and Qianyuan Sect only took a small part. The sincerity was enough.

But...

"Brother Xu Chengzi, you said that 50% of the source stones must be handed over. I wonder what's going on?"

Lin Heng asked curiously.

This matter involved the distribution of power in the Nine Heavens and the influence of the sect, and Xu Chengzi also explained it slowly.

In the Nine Heavens, there are thousands of forces standing everywhere, and standing at the top are undoubtedly the eight royal families and the five major forces on the side of the ascenders.

These thirteen forces are the pyramid of the entire Nine Heavens. From the second to the ninth heavens, all forces must pay a portion of their resources.

Each level of the Nine Heavens will also have branches of these forces, responsible for collecting the resources that have been offered in a unified manner and finally sending them to the sects of the first heaven.

As for the Qianyuan Sect, they belong to the Shura Island on the side of the ascenders.

Shura Island is a relatively alternative sect in the Nine Heavens. Several island masters are of different races, and the leader, the great island master, is the top existence among the monster race, Zulong.

With the Ancestral Dragon sitting in the center, Shura Island’s strength is self-evident. It sits firmly on the throne of one of the five major forces of the ascenders.

Shura Island is in the Ninth Heaven, and it governs dozens of sects. Half of the resources of these sects will be handed over to Shura Island.

When Xu Chengzi said this, Lin Heng was puzzled. Since Qianyuan Sect belongs to Shura Island, if the Thunderbird Clan comes to seize the source vein, won’t it cause sanctions from Shura Island?

Xu Chengzi also gave an explanation helplessly. The resources of the Ninth Heaven are not fixedly allocated. They are all determined by the competition among various forces.

Just like the source vein in Qianyuan Sect, it is fought over by the three forces under the command of the Thunder Clan Jiang Family, the Tu Clan Sun Family, and Shura Island.

This is the result of countless years of fighting between the eight royal families and the ascenders.

The people above cannot act easily, so the people below can only fight for face.

As for the Thunderbird Clan coming directly to seize the source veins this time, Xu Chengzi said that this is the Thunder Clan and the Earth Clan joining forces to suppress Shura Island.

Such things have happened in the past, otherwise the Nine Heavens would have thousands of sects, and there would not be more than half of them now. It

is just a fight between the lower-level sects. The upper level will at most pay a superficial tribute and ask a few questions, but will never make a big fuss about it.

It's nothing more than you plotting against me this time, and next time I will join forces with other forces to plot against you.

The unlucky ones are the ones who will suffer in the end.

Lin Heng and Sun Yuan looked at each other after hearing this. They had just arrived at the Ninth Heaven and heard such news. It can be said that the Ninth Heaven has embodied the cruel cultivation environment to the extreme.

Don't really think that it will be glorious to step into the path of cultivation.

In fact, the life of a cultivator is more cruel and ruthless than that of a mortal.

Mortals try every possible way for money, but there are always constraints.

For cultivators, it is either you or I for resources. This is a reality that everyone from top to bottom tacitly accepts.

After saying so much, Xu Chengzi also told a piece of good news: "If you want to establish a sect, now is the best time. Use the territory I gave you as the foundation. I will report today's events. I believe that Shura Island will also be angry at the Thunder Clan for tolerating what the Thunder Bird Clan did. Once the higher-ups agree, you only need to show your strong strength to shock other nearby sects, and then you can take over the Thunder Bird Clan's territory."

Xu Chengzi's proposal was not bad, but there was one thing that Lin Heng didn't believe Xu Chengzi hadn't thought of.

"If I occupy the Thunder Bird Clan's territory, won't I have to compete with Qianyuan Sect for the source in the future?"

Lin Heng deliberately asked this question with a smile.
