Peerless God Emperor

Although the territory was remote, it had abundant resources of Source Stones. Many high quality Source Stones were transported from this location to the Divine Phoenix Mountain.    

From a certain point of view, the people in this territory were like slaves of the Divine Phoenix Clan. They were imprisoned here to excavate and imprison freedom, just like prisoners.    

Most of the people exiled to this place were Demonic Beast from other races, and because they had offended the Divine Phoenix Clan, or perhaps war had erupted with the Divine Phoenix Clan, after being defeated, they were imprisoned here to excavate primeval stones for the Divine Phoenix Clan.    

However, not everyone was like that. There were even some that were sinners of Divine Phoenix Clan who were exiled here to reflect on their crimes.    

In a stone quarry, dozens of figures were excavating for primeval stones, each of them looking exhausted. Their eyes were bloodshot and their auras were extremely weak.    

Obviously, they hadn't rested for a long time.    

These people were the slaves of the Heavenly Phoenix Territory. Due to various reasons, they were imprisoned here to mine primeval stones for the Divine Phoenix Clan, and they only had a few short days of rest each month. The rest of their time was spent on excavating primeval stones.    

Beside them, there were several young figures standing on tall boulders.    

Those people were all clad in gorgeous robes and exuded extraordinary auras. They looked down upon the crowd below, their eyes filled with a sense of pride, as though they were standing high above them.    

They were the commanders sent by the Divine Phoenix Clan to the territory of the Phoenix, and were specifically responsible for supervising the criminals in digging out the spirit stones. Most of them were young people, and because their talent wasn't considered too strong in the Divine Phoenix Clan, they were sent here to gain experience.    

The Phoenix Heavenly Territory seemed to be a remote place, but in fact, there were countless people who wanted to come here. The reason was simple, the resources here were plentiful, other than the spirit stones to transport to Divine Phoenix Clan, there was still a lot of them.    

As for the remaining primeval stones, most of it was provided to the elders here for cultivation, and the remaining resources were given to the commanders to distribute among themselves. But even so, the resources that each person received were still very substantial.    

After all, they only had Origin King Stage, and the resources they needed weren't as vast as those of the Emperor and Emperor Realms.    

Therefore, people who could be sent to this place would never lack cultivation resources, and even if their talent was not strong, their true cultivation would not be weak. Once they cultivated to an even higher realm, they would still receive excellent treatment when they returned to the Divine Phoenix Clan.    

BOOM, BOOM, BOOM!    

Rumbling sounds rang out as boulders constantly exploded. From within the boulders, an extremely resplendent light blossomed. It was the light emitted by the primeval stones.    

The vast majority of primeval stones were buried underground, and it was extremely difficult to extract, so they were all wasted.    

And only an extremely small amount of primeval stones were in the mountain range, and after a long period of time, they formed a vein, and these primeval stones could be extracted.    

As for the primeval stones on the surface of the mountains and rivers, they were extremely rare, to the point that they could even be considered rare. These primeval stones directly absorbed the essence of the world's sun and moon, and every one of them had extremely high quality, containing boundless energy.    

The higher the quality of a spirit stone, the more intense the light emitted.    

In a certain direction, there was a middle-aged man whose face was as pale as a sheet of paper. Seeing that no one was looking at them, he took the opportunity to rest.    

However, this scene was coincidentally witnessed by a young man at the peak of the mountain. That young man's eyes flashed with a fierce light as he roared in anger, "Faster!"    

As the angry voice faded away, a long flaming whip was raised high into the air. The air was instantly filled with the shadows of the fiery-red whip, sweeping through the void, causing space itself to faintly vibrate.    

A crisp sound rang out as the red whip landed on the middle-aged man's back. The middle-aged man groaned in pain as his body trembled violently. The contours of his face were twisted together, as though he was suffering immense pain.    

"Zhu He, don't go too far!"    

An ice-cold voice rang out, it was the voice of a female cultivator. The female expert was in her thirties or forties, and there was traces of dust on her face, as well as a sense of exhaustion.    

If Qin Xuan and Huo Er were here, they would have definitely recognized the woman at a glance. She was actually Qing elder!    

"Don't worry about me, hurry up and leave." The middle-aged man spoke to Qing elder with a worried tone, obviously not wanting to involve Qing elder in this.    

"They've gone too far." Qing elder stared coldly at the young man, her beautiful eyes containing traces of extreme coldness, as though she was extremely angry.    

Zhu He looked at the Qing elder coldly and mocked: "Qing Menghe, don't think that just because you're a member of the Ninth Princess's side that I won't dare to touch you. In no time at all, the Third Princess will become a goddess.    

The original name of the Qing elder was Qing Menghe.    

"Brother Zhu, there's no need to waste your breath on this slut. She's just a prisoner. If it wasn't for the fact that the Ninth Princess still has some power, she would have already died in the clan. Why would she be sent here?"    

A laughter drifted over, only to see another young man speaking. This young man had a handsome countenance, and a faint smile appeared on his face. However, that smile was extremely cold, so cold that it caused one to feel disgust.    

"Huo Er..." When Qing Menghe heard the conversation between the two, her body couldn't help but tremble, and her eyes flashed a look of worry.    

She knew Huo Er didn't want to fight with others, but if she were to give up on the fight with the Goddess, then she would be in a dangerous situation.    

Divine Phoenix Clan and the rest were not kind people. If they got the upper hand, the consequences would be dire.    

"Hmph. I'll let you off today. After a few more days, you can enjoy the feeling of being tortured." Zhu He said while looking at Qing Menghe coldly.    

Although Qing Menghe had been sent to Phoenix Heavenly Territory, they all knew that the Qing elder was a close relative of Huo Er. Even though he was currently in Divine Phoenix Clan, it was hard for him to not rise to prominence at some point, so they did not dare to go overboard.    

Amongst these slaves, Qing Menghe was the easiest. Although his cultivation had been suppressed to the Origin King Stage, his clothes were still clean and he was not as messy as the others.    

For everyone imprisoned here, no matter how strong their cultivation was before, an extremely strong seal was placed in their body. With their cultivation suppressed to the level of Origin King Stage, they had no way of breaking through.    

This was why the scene before their eyes appeared. Many experts that had lived for thousands of years were whipped by a group of juniors without being able to fight back at all. They could only allow themselves to be kneaded.    

Only they themselves knew just how terrible the feeling of unwillingness was.    

"Brother Mo, are you alright?" Qing Menghe asked the middle-aged man who had just been whipped with concern.    

"It's nothing, just some minor injuries." The middle-aged man forced out a smile, pretending that he didn't care.    

"Cough, cough." Then, he could not help but cough. Qing Menghe rolled his eyes and said: "This is only a small wound?"    

"Hmph, if I was at my peak, even if I was beaten ten thousand times by this beast, it wouldn't be able to shake my body. However, my vital energy and blood is already depleted. If this continues, I'm afraid I won't be able to live much longer." Mo Hai shook his head and laughed bitterly.    

Mo Hai was not from the Divine Phoenix Clan, but from the Griffin Tribe.    

The Griffin clan had suffered a crushing defeat and was forced to hand over dozens of Peak of Origin Emperor Stage experts. Mo Hai was one of them.    

"Ai, let's not talk about this anymore. Hurry up and do what you have to do so that you won't be humiliated by these beasts again." Mo Hai said to Qing Menghe.    

After interacting with him for a period of time, he knew that the Qing elder had a very high position in the Divine Phoenix Clan, and was the trusted subordinate of a princess. It was just that because of a few reasons, he was exiled here, and in the future, had the chance to leave.    

In this mine, there were many people who had experienced this kind of experience with Mo Hai. They were originally strong individuals with profound strength, powerful individuals, and incredibly powerful strength.    

However, not only was his cultivation suppressed, he was also being whipped and humiliated by the younger generation. The Resentment had long ago soared to the skies, but it was impossible for him to break through the shackles, so he could only tolerate the lashes of Zhu He and the others.    

Other than that, because they had been constantly mining primeval stones all year round and did not get enough recovery, this was no different from squeezing out their body's potential.    

With their original cultivation realm, they might be able to persist for a short period of time. However, as time passed, the power of their blood essence gradually weakened, and their breath became weaker. It was even more so that they wouldn't be able to break through the seal.    

This kind of treatment for prisoners was extremely cruel, however, it wasn't just the Divine Phoenix Clan. Many powerful Demon Clan did the same, gaining larger territories through endless wars, while using the people who lost to mine to increase their own strength.    

...    

And thousands of meters above the Phoenix Heavenly Territory, four young figures were rapidly flying through the air with extreme speed. The person in the lead was a white-clothed youth with elegant long hair and a handsome face, revealing an extraordinary aura from head to toe.    

It was as if he was describing the white-clothed man.    

This youth, was naturally Qin Xuan.    

And beside Qin Xuan, were Tai Long, Mu Ye and Huo Er.    

This time Huo Er did not bring those servants along. Their talent was not high, if they were to bring them along, not only would it not help, it might even cause them to retreat, so he did not let them go along.    

"Elder Brother Xuan, how much distance is there to go?" Huo Er looked at Qin Xuan with some anxiety, the expression on her charming face was no longer as relaxed and casual as before.    

"According to senior Che's instructions, they should be right ahead." Qin Xuan said. Before he came, Che Ting had already pointed out the direction, and they were almost at that place.    

"Alright, let's hurry over then." Huo Er said.    

Qin Xuan, Tai Long and Mu Ye all nodded their heads, after that the auras of the three of them increased explosively, as spatial laws pervaded out from Qin Xuan's body, enveloping the three of them. After that, the four of them disappeared, and directly teleported through the air.
