Just when the two foundation-building monks of the Infinite Sword Sect were discussing how to better blame others, Yang Lu and others also completed the teleportation and asked Song Feifan to help keep an eye on the exit of the teleportation formation. After that, the two of them entered the Spirit Slave alone.
Inside the factory.
Unlike Qishan Prison, which has a quiet environment, Lingnu Factory is like an assembly line filled with workers.
The entire Lingnu Factory seems to be built in a huge underground cave. The room in front of Yang Lu alone has an internal ceiling height of tens of meters and a total area of thousands of square meters. The architectural structure is like that of the West.
Cathedral, and around the room, there are many small doors that are protected by restrictions. It seems that there are many similar rooms nearby.
A large number of shackled spiritual slaves, just like assembly line workers on Earth, wearing uniforms of inferior material but uniform shape, were neatly arranged in a row, each sitting on their own futons to meditate and practice, with a large amount of rich spiritual energy,
It was constantly emerging from their bodies like steam, raising the concentration of spiritual energy in this place to an astonishing level.
Although this underground space was crowded with people, very few people spoke, and even breathing and coughing could be heard faintly.
In addition to the huge number of spirit slaves, Yang Lu also saw many disciples of the Wuliang Sword Sect walking past these spirit slaves. They were like military training instructors checking the posture of new recruits, constantly checking the working status of these spirit slaves.
The inspection methods of these disciples of the Wuliang Sword Sect are also very simple.
Like a random survey, they would stop in front of a certain spirit slave at any time, and then mobilize their spiritual consciousness to sense the spiritual energy reaction around the spirit slave. The spirit slaves who were randomly checked would also involuntarily show nervous expressions. But absolutely
In most cases, these disciples of the Wuliang Sword Sect only paused for a moment, then continued patrolling after finding nothing unusual.
Just when Yang Lu was marveling at this amazing sweatshop, an accident happened.
I saw a Qi Refining Stage disciple of the Wuliang Sword Sect walking up to a certain spiritual slave and inspecting it. His brows suddenly wrinkled, and then he pulled out a whip-like magic weapon from his waist and pointed it at the opponent's head.
Smoked it.
The spirit slave who was hit by the whip let out a miserable scream on the spot: "Master Immortal, please forgive me! I really am not lazy!"
Restricted by the laws of heaven, Jiuzhou cultivators rarely have the opportunity to do violence to mortals. Even if cultivators sometimes have to teach mortals a lesson, what they think about more is how much merit they will have deducted.
However, Lingnu is different.
As indigenous residents of the Wilderness Territory, no matter how the cultivators abuse them, their merits will not be deducted.
The Qi Refining Stage monk of the Wuliang Sword Sect who just made a move was obviously a minion at the bottom of the sect. He definitely had no indentured slaves for him to ravage at will. At this moment, when he saw that the spiritual slave was beaten by him and kept begging for mercy, this man's face also showed a trace of anger.
Cruel smile: "How dare you quibble! The concentration of spiritual energy around you is clearly lower than around others!"
"Master Immortal has misunderstood. My own martial arts skills are lower than others, so it is normal for me to produce less spiritual energy!"
"Nonsense, the workstations in the Lingqi production workshop are originally divided according to your martial arts skills. Even if there is a gap, it cannot be so obvious. You are obviously lazy! According to the rules of the Lingnu Factory, this kind of sophistry should be punished by one level.
!”
As he said that, he whipped him again.
Since Yang Lu witnessed the whole process of the monk from the Wuliang Sword Sect taking action, he found that when this person's whip was swung out, there was a flash of light on the surface, indicating that it was not an ordinary mortal weapon, but was struck by the whip.
The spirit slave seemed to have no protective aura on his body, and he was beaten to the ground on the spot.
Seeing this scene, Yang Lu was also slightly surprised.
Because if an ordinary mortal was whipped by a cultivator, even a cultivator in the early stage of Qi refining would probably be whipped to death. However, this spirit slave used his physical body to resist the magic weapon, but only suffered some skin injuries.
The physical strength is probably equivalent to that of an ordinary Qi refining period monster!
Although Ye Chen's Geng-Gold Body Transformation Technique can also produce a similar dominating effect, when he activates the Geng-Gold Body Transformation Technique, there will also be obvious fluctuations in spiritual energy, and it will not look like this spirit slave.
There is no difference between mortals.
This should be the effect of the spiritual martial arts.
But even though the spirit slave withstood the blow, he obviously didn't feel well. He tightly covered the area where he was beaten, rolled on the ground wailing back and forth, and begged for mercy loudly: "I'm just a little bit.
I got distracted! I won’t dare to do it anymore, I won’t do it anymore! Master Immortal Master, have mercy on me!”
Although this man was wailing loudly, no one paid him any attention. Even the two compatriots from the Spirit Race who were less than half a meter away from him turned a blind eye to his wailing. They still meditated desperately with their eyes closed, as if they were afraid of being patrolled.
The monks of the Infinite Sword Sect found out the problem.
However, the disciple of the Wuliang Sword Sect who was beating him did not stop, and said while beating him: "You alien demons are really rotten wood. You only work twelve hours a day and you still dare to be lazy and slippery! I don't know that the high-level officials of the sect are so stubborn.
What do you think? If I were to make the decision, I would let you experience the power of the 16-hour working day!"
Then he added another whip.
Being whipped back and forth by the spiritual whips of the disciples of the Wuliang Sword Sect, even the powerful Lingtian Clan could not withstand it.
Soon the spirit slave didn't even have the strength to scream.
In the end, another patrolling monk from the Infinite Sword Sect with a higher level of cultivation took the initiative to persuade him: "Junior Brother Hou, please be merciful! Although this spiritual whip specializes in attacking the soul and will not cause any substantial harm to the body, it has not happened before.
The spirit slave was hurt to death. If this person is really hurt to death, all of us here will have our performance deducted by the sect!"
Seeing someone trying to dissuade him, the monk surnamed Hou reluctantly gave up.
He spat harshly at the Eldar who was knocked over by him, and said angrily: "I'll let you go this time. If you dare to cheat again next time and affect my personal performance, I will definitely not let you go!
If you hadn't been lazy every day, why would we, the cultivators of the Infinite Sword Sect, not even have time to practice, and come here to keep an eye on you?"
Being angrily scolded by the patrolling monks of the Infinite Sword Sect, the spirit tribe who was knocked over just repeated words of begging for mercy such as "I don't dare anymore" without daring to refute or show the slightest expression of dissatisfaction.
The monk surnamed Hou ignored him, kicked him back onto his futon, and then continued patrolling.
The spirit slave who was kicked back soon started meditating again like a machine like other spirit slaves. For some reason, Yang Lu saw the disciples of the Wuliang Sword Sect carrying spiritual whips and patrolling in front of the spirit slave.
, as if I saw the farmer uncle patrolling the leek field he planted with a sickle.
Ancestor Mingzhu looked at all this with cold eyes and explained softly: "This is the largest spiritual slave workshop and a place of blessing for people in the world of Jiuzhou cultivation. These spiritual slaves usually only do three things, eat and sleep to produce spiritual energy, year after year, forever.
Endless…”
But this time, before Mingzhu finished speaking, a new situation emerged.
I saw a disciple of the Wuliang Sword Sect trotting over from another room, and reported to the monk of the Wuliang Sword Sect who just stopped his colleague from committing violence, who looked like a junior leader: "Brother, No. 234 of the Second Spiritual Energy Workshop
After testing, the Spirit Slave has now entered the recyclable period. Visual inspection shows that its cultivation level cannot be further improved. Please recycle it!"
The monk of the Wuliang Sword Sect, who was called senior brother, nodded and printed his spell mark on the form handed over by his junior brother: "Okay, send someone to execute it immediately!"
"I will execute it myself right now!"
The disciples of the Wuliang Sword Sect who came to report received permission and immediately turned around and left.
Yang Lu asked strangely: "What are these two people doing?"
Mingzhu said calmly: "According to the agreement between the Ascended Immortal and the cultivators, in order to maintain the balance of the Heavenly Dao of the Nine Provinces, the total number of spiritual slaves in the Nine Provinces shall not exceed 20,000, and the quota will be allocated according to the contribution of each sect in the development plan of the Wilderness Territory. Among them,
The Wuliang Sword Sect family has been assigned 6,700 spiritual slaves, no more, no less."
"What does this have to do with what just happened?"
"Of course it does matter! The martial arts cultivation level of the Spirit Clan is different from that of cultivators. Their martial arts cultivation level can grow with age without practicing, but at the same time, it will reach a bottleneck at a certain level and will no longer improve, and will continue to grow with the body.
The old age has begun to degenerate. Only the enlightened spirits who have practiced cultivation techniques can avoid this kind of degeneration. However, there are obviously no enlightened spirits in the Lingnu Factory..."
"So, the so-called recycling..."
"You must know that the number of spiritual slaves is a carrot and a pit. In order to maximize the output efficiency of the spiritual slaves, the Wuliang Sword Sect will definitely not keep those spiritual tribes who are old and weak and have degraded spiritual energy production capabilities in vain. They will definitely get rid of them.
, and then replace them with younger ones with higher spiritual energy output, which is also called recycling!"
After saying that, Mingzhu also made a gesture of wiping his neck.
Seeing Yang Lu's surprised expression, Mingzhu continued: "This is actually nothing. In order to squeeze the spirit slaves as much as possible, the Wuliang Sword Sect has long been no longer content with recycling those old and frail spirits. They also invented
The concept of the so-called 'recovery period' has been introduced."
"That's exactly what they just said!"
"According to the growth curve of Lingnu's martial arts cultivation, the Wuliang Sword Sect Lingnu Factory can screen out those Spirits in advance who have relatively low martial arts talents and whose martial arts cultivation is not high enough when they reach a certain age. This kind of cultivation cannot keep up with the growth of age.
Spirit slaves are also said to have entered the recyclable period. If the Wuliang Sword Sect confirms that a spirit slave has entered the recyclable period, they can choose to recycle them in advance to avoid this kind of waste occupying the quota and replace them with weapons.
Young spiritual slaves with higher academic qualifications."
"Isn't this just vacating the cage to change the bird? So just now they were applying to get rid of those spiritual slaves who are not talented enough in martial arts?"
"That's right, three-legged toads are hard to find. Isn't it easy to breed and produce two-legged Lingnu? As the management of Lingnu factory becomes more and more refined, the efficiency of this factory is also getting higher and higher.
At least it’s much stronger than it was two hundred years ago!”
Listening to Mingzhu's words, this Lingnu Factory actually also has an artificial breeding business?
Yang Lu couldn't help being shocked and said: "It is said that Lingnu Factory is one of the most blessed places in Kyushu. I thought it was just an ordinary sweatshop, but I didn't expect that there are so many shady things here! For cultivators, this place may be a real blessing.
It is a rare blessed place, but for the Spiritual Race, this place is simply a hell on earth! No wonder Wang Ziwei has so much resentment!"
"Who says it's not the case? Five hundred years ago, the Wuliang Sword Sect had only more than 200 golden elixir monks. But now, the total number of golden elixir monks in the Wuliang Sword Sect is close to 500. This 24-hour
The Spirit Slave Workshop that continuously generates spiritual energy can be said to be the greatest contributor. Haha, this is all the fault of the Ascended Immortal!"
Although Ming Zhu and Yang Lu's complaints are normal in the eyes of earth's values, in the world of Kyushu cultivation, this kind of remarks can be regarded as out-and-out anti-social remarks.
After all, everything in the Kyushu world is of inferior quality. The only thing that can improve one's cultivation is political correctness. The humanitarian spirit is a joke. What's more, what kind of humanitarianism are we talking about to the Spirits of the Wilderness Realm who are not my race?
This is why abolitionists have become street rats that everyone in the cultivation world wants to beat up. Even the abolitionists were ultimately blamed for the destruction of Qishan Prison.
That is to say, this kind of deviant dialogue took place between Yang Lu, a "visitor from the earth", and Ming Zhu, who "must rebel against any ascended immortal".
Looking at these zombie-like spirit slaves, Yang Lu was still a little confused and said: "Aren't these spirit slaves amazing in combat? But I think the monks patrolling here are all in the Qi refining stage. Aren't they afraid of the spirit slaves rioting?"
Mingzhu pointed at the shackles at the feet of these spirit slaves and said: "The way the spirit clan uses spirit energy is much rougher than that of Jiuzhou cultivators, and the shackles that control them are a special magical weapon, which is made by the Supreme Master of Zijin Pavilion.
Elder Tong Xingu invented it to specifically take advantage of this weakness in the martial arts of the Spirit Clan. Whenever the Spirit Clan consciously wants to mobilize the spiritual energy in their bodies, this magic weapon is like a fully automatic jammer, immediately disrupting the spiritual energy in their bodies.
The spiritual energy circulates, allowing them to be counterattacked by their own magic power."
"Is the robustness of the spirit clan's martial arts so poor? Just being disturbed by ordinary magic weapons will backfire? I remember that if you want a cultivator to be backlashed by your own magic power, you must have a secret move by the ancestor of the Nascent Soul, right?
!”
"The Ling clan's martial arts does have many weaknesses, and it is obviously more primitive and backward than cultivation magic. This is why I say that Wang Sandao's real strength is not as powerful as it appears on paper. Don't expect him to be able to defeat him alone with the advantage of having a home field.
Lin Jianxing... But no matter what, it is precisely this method of easily controlling spirit slaves that allows cultivators to operate spirit slave workshops at the lowest cost. After all, there are a total of 20,000 spirit slaves in the cultivation world.
If you are detained according to the standards of Qishan Prison, the costs will probably be greater than the benefits!"
