The Fourth Financial Crisis

Through the two-realm passage opened by the immortals, a large number of high-level cultivators searched the mountains and seas in the wilderness to capture the spirit tribe.

Although the population of the Spirit Tribe is sparse, and there are still a few powerful people who can compete with the Nascent Soul cultivators, in the face of the cultivator slave-catching team that is far more organized than the Spirit Tribe and has a tacit cooperation, the Spirit Tribe who are fighting independently are unable to resist. force.

In just a few years, nearly ten thousand masters from the Spirit Clan were smuggled into the Kyushu Cultivation World.

It's a pity that the Ascending Immortal cannot stay in the human world for a long time. As the head of Ma Tianyi left Kyushu to ascend to the heaven, the connection between Kyushu and the Wilderness Territory was interrupted, and this grand slave-catching activity came to an end.

These spiritual slaves and their descendants who were smuggled into the Jiuzhou cultivation world by cultivators have since been called spiritual slaves by cultivators.

Since the cultivation adventurers who participated in the development plan of the Wilderness Territory at that time had to be at least at the Golden Core level, almost all the existing spiritual slaves in the Kyushu cultivation world were firmly controlled by the seven major sects of Kyushu and the "Sixth Sect of the Far North" in Arctic State. in hand.

As the main initiator of the Wilderness Domain development plan, the Wuliang Sword Sect naturally controls the largest number of spirit slaves.

These spirit slaves are like human flesh generators and human flesh dry batteries. They are cruelly imprisoned by the Kyushu cultivators in the headquarters of various sects. They meditate day and night to provide an endless source of spiritual energy for the headquarters of each sect.

The spiritual energy produced by the spiritual slaves directly turned the headquarters of the seven major sects in Kyushu into a real paradise. As long as there are no monks above the golden elixir stage fighting back and forth, there will never be a lack of spiritual energy in the headquarters of the Infinite Sword Sect. This The human flesh power station further increases the Matthew effect between sects, making the powerful sects that control spiritual slaves even more powerful.

It's a pity that the Spiritual Race was born in the Wilderness Territory and was not born with the Heavenly Way of Nine Provinces.

Back then, Ma Tianyi relied on the Immortal Artifact Three Thousand Worlds to forcibly suppress luck, which allowed the existence of tens of thousands of spirit slaves in Kyushu. When the total population of spirit slaves exceeds this number, the number of captive spirit slaves will be deducted. Cultivators have a lot of merit, so each sect is like raising pigs and needs to control the number of its spiritual slaves at all times.

The population of spiritual slaves cannot be large, otherwise the merits will be deducted;

However, the population of spiritual slaves cannot be reduced. Without less spiritual energy, the output of spiritual energy will decrease.

Speaking of this, Wang Ziwei's face flashed with a hint of unbearable color. He pointed to a mountain peak of the Wuliang Sword Sect with the richest aura and said: "That's the soul slave breeding farm of the Wuliang Sword Sect. There are a total of 1,500 soul slaves." They are kept here in captivity. These spirit slaves only do three things every day, eat, sleep, and meditate to produce spirit energy. I once used my special status as the assistant to the president of the Lingshi Reserve Bank to visit the spirit slave breeding farm several times. It was simply a hell on earth. Such an existence!”

"That sounds a lot like jail time!"

"Spirit slaves are a hundred times more miserable than the prisoners in Qishan Prison!" When it came to the living environment of the soul slaves, Wang Ziwei obviously had a strong opinion and couldn't help complaining to an outsider like Yang Lu, "These soul slaves have no personal freedom at all. , all were collectively detained in a small room, and had to meditate to produce a fixed amount of spiritual energy every day according to their own physical skills. If they failed to complete the spiritual energy production plan for the day, they would be punished by the disciples of the Wuliang Sword Sect who were responsible for guarding them for a while. He will be beaten severely, or even severely punished. After all, the spirit slave is not like a mortal in Jiuzhou, and is not protected by the law of heaven at all. No matter how hard he is tortured, there will be no problem!"

"A society of high demons without the restraints of heaven is simply terrifying..."

Wang Ziwei didn't hear Yang Lu's soliloquy clearly and asked quickly: "Consultant Yang, what are you talking about?"

Yang Lu quickly waved his hand and said, "Nothing, just keep talking!"

Wang Ziwei sighed and said: "These spirit slaves are like livestock raised by the Wuliang Sword Sect. They even have plans to reproduce offspring. If the fertility quota is exceeded, the newborn spirit slaves will be sent to humane destruction by the guards. Spirit slaves, like us cultivators, are all living people, but their living environment is simply worse than pigs and dogs!"

It sounds like the status of a spiritual slave in the world of cultivation is equivalent to the status of a black slave in a plantation.

Seeing how Wang Ziwei was so indignant when he mentioned spiritual slaves, he was obviously a staunch anti-slavery person.

It's a pity that improving one's cultivation and pursuing immortality are the highest level of political correctness in the Kyushu cultivation world. All universal values ​​cannot compete with this political correctness. It is precisely because the cultivation benefits brought by raising spirit slaves are so astonishing that even if anti-slavery people can no longer bear the plight of spirit slaves, they dare not openly propose the idea of ​​liberating spirit slaves.

Even the most radical anti-slavery people are only calling for the improvement of the living environment of spiritual slaves. Apart from talking to Yang Lu, Wang Ziwei actually has no good way to change the status quo.

Although Yang Lu sympathized with these spirit slaves, he was also powerless against them.

The highest political correctness in the world of cultivation is to improve your cultivation. Anything that can improve your cultivation is impossible to be banned. The Wuliang Sword Sect feeds spiritual slaves like livestock. Presumably the situation of other sects will not be much different.

So he just followed Wang Ziwei's words and angrily rebuked the Wuliang Sword Sect for running a sweat shop.

This statement naturally won Wang Ziwei's praise.

However, Yang Lu felt a little strange when he saw Wang Ziwei's reaction.

After all, most talented rising stars like Wang Ziwei, who obviously have a strong cultivation family background and are still proud of their youth, have high-mindedness like Lin Dong, the dead ghost on the outlying island. Very few people care about the suffering of the people, and they don’t know that human rights fighters like Wang Ziwei are like How is the universal value concept formed?

It’s not like this was taught by Li Qingyang, right?

It was not that Yang Lu meant to slander the president of Lingshi Reserve Bank, but he felt that cultivating economists like Li Qingyang were inherently cold-blooded and rational, and were not very sympathetic people.

So Yang Lu made some insinuations about Wang Ziwei's family background.

However, Wang Ziwei is worthy of being Li Qingyang's secretary. He is indeed very good at speaking. As long as it is something that he does not want to take the initiative to talk about, no matter what angle Yang Lu asks, he can use Tai Chi to smooth it over.

Therefore, Yang Lu tried to talk for a long time, but except that he could see that this person was an anti-slavery person, he almost didn't get any substantial gains.

Originally, Yang Lu thought that he could gain Li Qingyang's full trust because of his family background, but seeing how secretive Wang Ziwei was, he was a little unsure now. After all, although a normal second-generation fairy would not remind others of his family background all the time, he would not mind letting others know his background.

While the two were chatting, Han Xinhe and Li Qingning also rushed back one after another.

However, Han Xinhe was smiling with no sign of dissatisfaction at all. It was obvious that he had just had a pleasant chat with Vice President Yuntianhua; while Li Qingning, with her pretty little face slumped, was sulking beside her.

Obviously, her attempt to visit Murong must have been flatly rejected by the Wuliang Sword Sect.

After all, Murong is a disciple of the Holy Spiritual Root. Before he reaches the foundation building stage, he will definitely be protected by the sect as a giant panda!

Previously, the Wuliang Sword Sect asked Murong to practice in seclusion to prepare for the battlefield outside the territory, and even refused to allow outsiders to send her communication spells. Now that Li Qingning came to visit, the Wuliang Sword Sect would not allow it.

Seeing that Yang Lu had come out of Baiyu Pavilion, Li Qingning prepared to go into the pavilion to visit his great-grandfather.

However, Bai Yuge was obviously restrained at this time, and she could not push it away no matter how hard she tried. In the end, Li Qingyang sent a message, saying that he was about to die, and seeing each other again would only add to the sadness. Li Qingning was unwilling to give up and knocked on the door a few more times, but Li Qingyang didn't respond, so she could only give up in frustration.
