Chapter 1566: Salary

The approximately eight-meter-long Taixia Ancient Mining's cruiser appeared tiny at first glance. It resembled a toy model, but this was to reduce the dangers it would encounter to a minimum while traveling through the multiverse.

But upon stepping inside, it was equivalent to entering a pocket world. The hull had various buildings and palaces. At a glance, it was like a miniature city.

In the middle of the city was a striking nine-floored pavilion. Clearly, it was where the Taixia Ancient Mining's upper echelons lived.

And surrounding the pavilion were twelve towers. The white-haired middle-aged man led Yi Yun to the highest level of one of the towers.

”Steward Zhou.”

At the top floor of the tower, a voluptuous woman walked over.

Her chest was ample and her waist thin. She was clothed in muslin and her excellent figure teased through the thin fabric. She bowed smilingly towards the middle-aged man. The coquettish look in between her eyebrows and her every move were filled with amorous charm.

”He will be a member of your Purple Light Hall. Purple Succubus, help treat his injuries.”

The middle-aged man was succinct in his words. After he handed the contract to Purple Succubus, he turned and left.

”Take care, Steward Zhou.”

The voluptuous woman stood up after saying that. The coquettish look on her face vanished instantly and replacing it was a picky glare as she sized up Yi Yun.

This left Yi Yun sighing inwardly. The speed at which this woman changed her attitude was truly amazing.

”A contract that lasts a century…” Purple Succubus looked at the contract as a teasing smile suffused her charming face. ”Let's hope you can live that long.”

Purple Succubus took out a wooden box from her interspatial artifact that resembled a bangle. She handed it to Yi Yun and said, ”This is for you. Let me tell you ahead of time that my Purple Light Hall has no need for incompetency. If you can't bring me the things I require, you'll find I can be quite heartless. At the very least, your salary would be forfeit. In the Taixia Ancient Mining, death is a high possibility without a salary.”

Yi Yun did not say a word. He scanned the wooden box with his psyche and discovered that there were a few rocks in the box. There were speckles of light amid the gray texture.

This is…

Yi Yun pricked up his brows. He could sense an extremely pure Heaven Earth Yuan Qi from these rocks. They were many times purer than Godly Monarch Immortal Annuli, but they were just too few in number.

”Are these Chaos Crystals?” Yi Yun asked Bai Yueyin via voice transmission.

She replied, ”This is obviously not a Chaos Crystal. They're Chaos Ore. Chaos Crystals are extracted from such ores. In the Chaos Heavens, Chaos Crystals are extremely precious. The average warrior will not bear to use Chaos Crystals or afford to use them. In their place, they use such Chaos Ores. Ores also have their grades. The one you have is coarse ore.”

”Understood…”

Yi Yun shook his head. It was no wonder there was so little Yuan Qi between all of the rocks. He had a robust foundation and his dantian was as deep as the sea. Now that he was completely depleted of Yuan Qi, he needed copious amounts of energy to replenish his reserves. The tiny bits of Chaos Ore were completely inadequate.

Besides, Yi Yun still had a sleeping Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm inside his God Advent Tower. Although the little guy was small in size, he was quite a glutton. The bits of Chaos Ore were not enough to even stuff the gaps of its teeth.

”What? You find it too little?” Purple Succubus seemed to read Yi Yun's mind.
