Chapter 62 Shallow Sea Islands
As we all know, shallow seas are more likely to breed prosperous life systems. In this shallow sea, there are a large number of coral reefs, almost countless kinds of fish and shrimps, and many underwater resources. It is also easier to mine.
It is precisely because of this that the Qinghe Islands has thousands of islands floating on the water, giving birth to a prosperous area for cultivating immortals.
In the entire Tianxing Sea, except for the core Tianxing Continent, the sphere of influence occupied by the human race is almost one shallow sea island after another.
Those who dominate these shallow sea islands are basically one by one Foundation-Building Immortal Sect. The remaining smaller islands are also occupied by various demon clans or powerful Foundation-Building forces.
Most of these shallow-sea islands are relatively isolated. They are often thousands of miles apart from each other, and they usually don't have much contact.
The deep sea territory outside these islands is beyond the reach of the human race.
These deep seas are often tens of thousands of feet deep, and there are also a large number of monsters living in them, including giant sea beasts with overwhelming energy and blood, and there are also powerful monsters at the foundation level.
For ordinary monks in the early and middle stages of Qi training, once they encounter monsters, it is not an exaggeration to say that they will escape death.
Only these second-order treasure ships, which not only have extraordinary defensive power, but also have foundation-building monks sitting on them, can ensure that the treasure ships can safely pass through this vast deep sea area.
"The human race occupies the shallow sea, and the monster race is entrenched in the deep sea, but they covet the richness of the shallow sea. Their spheres of influence are intertwined. For many years, the two sides have surrounded the shallow sea islands, and a war breaks out almost every few decades."
< br>Ye Linyuan whispered in his heart, vaguely gaining a clear understanding of the situation in Cang Linghai.
The war between humans and monsters is essentially to solve overpopulation, but its core is still financial problems.
It is difficult for both sides to feed more monks and demons, so they must consume the excess low-level monks and demons in the war.
If the human race wins, they can take the opportunity to expand their scope of activities and even plunder some rare treasures in the deep sea.
If the demon clan wins, they can take back the islands outside the shallow sea, and even sneak into the shallow sea to further expand their living space.
This is a game of survival, and there is no distinction between good and evil.
The low-level monks and monsters fought in a ignorant manner, and in the end most of them lost their lives in vain. Only the high-level monks and monsters sat firmly on the fishing platform, and no matter how many low-level people died, The monk is not worthy of their heartache.
“In this world, there are only differences between strong and weak, not good and evil.”
“If I don’t want to become a buried low-level monk, all I can do is change. Be stronger, strong enough to control your own destiny.”
Ye Linyuan whispered slowly in his heart, and finally raised his head to look into the depths of the sea. The firmness in his eyes remained the same.
“…”
The treasure ship kept sailing in the sea. It took two months and passed more than a dozen shallow sea islands before arriving at a prosperous continent. Before.
“The profit from this treasure ship is probably thousands of spiritual stones.”
Seeing that he was about to arrive at the Tianxing Continent, Old Man Ye looked at the treasure ship in front of him and couldn’t help but reveal A hint of emotion.
Ye Linyuan also nodded. This treasure ship can carry eight hundred monks at a time. Counting the monks who boarded and disembarked along the way, the income from the ticket alone was more than a thousand spiritual stones.
Furthermore, ferry tickets are only part of the income. The real bulk is the income from transporting goods.
There is a storage formation on this treasure ship, which can store a large amount of bulk materials and training materials. Many families will bring the specialties of their respective shallow sea islands to the Tianxing Continent to sell in bulk. Because the output is too high, many of them cannot be sold at a high price locally, but as long as they are brought to Tianxing Continent, they are all scarce and can increase the price by at least 30 to 50%. Some rare ones can even be sold at several times the price.
Such an astonishing huge profit made these families pay a high price to rent storage space on the treasure ship.
After all, Nahai shells are expensive, and the internal space is very limited. It is more than enough to hold Huangyadan, but if it is to hold bulk materials such as spiritual rice and ores, no matter how large the space is, it is not enough.
According to Ye Linyuan's estimate, it would take four months for such a second-level treasure ship to travel the route of the Twelve Shallow Sea Islands, and the profit each time would be no less than 3,000 spiritual stones.
Even after deducting the cost of running the treasure ship, the salary of the sailor guards and the monks guarding the foundation, the remaining profit will still not be less than a thousand spiritual stones.
"A second-level treasure ship is indeed a money tree, but the cost is too high."
Ye Linyuan shook his head, he knew the cost of such a treasure ship too well.
Generally, only large foundation-building sects with deep foundations, or chambers of commerce composed of several foundation-building families can build one.
For forces like Qinghe Xianmen, although their background is not weak, it is difficult to build a ship even if they sell everything.
Just imagine, a treasure ship requires thousands of spiritual trees. The value of a first-order low-grade spiritual tree starts from ten spiritual stones. How amazing is the cost of so many spiritual trees?
This is a proper heavy asset. Even if it is a power at the Jindan level, if it wants to build one, it must be discussed by the Council of Elders.
“It is better to grab such an important asset.”
Ye Linyuan's thoughts flashed suddenly, but he couldn't help but shook his head.
In his previous life, he was used to being domineering and had done many things to exterminate families. Although he encountered life and death crises many times, he also gained extremely astonishing gains as a result.
Otherwise, in his previous life, he was just from a mere foundation-building family, and he would not have been able to cultivate to the level of Golden Elixir Great Perfection.
Thinking of this, Ye Linyuan shook his head again: "I practice water magic in this life, and my combat power may not be as good as in my previous life. After all, fighting with life and death is still too dangerous."
" If it is not necessary, it is better to treat others with courtesy in the future.”
"The ship has docked."
Just as Ye Linyuan's mind was wandering, the ship finally docked in front of the mainland.
Song Qingming patted Ye Linyuan on the shoulder before leaving, and then said with a smile: "Brother Ye, let's say goodbye today and hope to meet again in the future."
"Okay, Then let’s say goodbye.”
Ye Linyuan cupped his hands and said goodbye to Song Qingming.
After everyone got off the boat, Old Man Ye couldn't help but look at the huge Tianxing Continent, and then said with emotion: "I have never left the vicinity of the Qinghe Islands. Only when I came here today did I realize how vast this continent is."
Ye Linyuan smiled, and then said calmly: "It is said that in this world, the real continent is vast and endless, and a mountain range is thousands of miles long."
"Compared with those real giant continents For example, the Tianxing Continent we are on is just a small island, and it is only an insignificant point in the Cang Ling Sea.”
