Human Clan Defender-Chapter 827 - 11-12: Compensation, Abundant Spirit Veins
As for the other mountain ranges, they are collectively referred to as the Zhongshan Mountain Range, to highlight the name of the Zhongshan Clan.
The mountain ranges are vast.
Analyzing from Zhongshan Chou's memory, just this single Zhongshan Mountain Range alone is as large as two prefectures of the Great Qin.
Qiu Peak!
It is the domain of Zhongshan Chou himself.
If it were other disciples of the Candle Sect, they would only qualify to control a single peak.
To have control over a peak,
one must have entered the God Realm.
Besides that,
most Candle Sect disciples live in shared quarters.
It's worth mentioning.
Besides the Zhongshan Clan members, the Candle Sect also includes other races, usually those whose own race is too weak and are forced to wander and seek refuge with major clans.
For this reason,
the Candle Sect accepts them all.
After all, once cultivated, they can also be used for their own purposes.
Within the Zhongshan Mountain Range, there are many God Realm Outer Clan members; they do not hold the position of Elder in the Candle Sect but are given the title of Steward, and are treated quite well in various aspects.
Very soon,
a medium-sized peak appeared in Shen Changqing's view.
As he entered, an older disciple dressed in gray stepped forward.
"Welcome back, Peak Master!"
"Has anything happened recently?"
Shen Changqing recognized the person in front of him as one of the Stewards of Qiu Peak, not originally from the Zhongshan Clan, but from a small clan, named Cui Fu.
The opponent's clan was destroyed by powerful entities, and the remaining clan members were scattered everywhere.
Cui Fu, with some talent, joined the Candle Sect and became an ordinary disciple.
Later,
he stood out among the ordinary disciples and was noticed by Zhongshan Chou, who made him the Steward of Qiu Peak.
Although he seemed unremarkable, his strength had reached the Saint Rank level, though he had just entered, it was still respectable.
Cui Fu replied respectfully, "Reporting to the Peak Master, nothing special has happened recently."
"Good."
Shen Changqing nodded and started to walk up Qiu Peak.
As he had assumed Zhongshan Chou's identity, he needed to act according to the latter's personality.
This person, as a genius of the Zhongshan Clan, was naturally proud and haughty; he wouldn't waste words with those not on the same level.
This Steward of Qiu Peak was decent but compared to Zhongshan Chou himself, fell very short.
Seeing this,
Cui Fu silently followed him up the mountain.
It is worth mentioning,
that although Qiu Peak is just one of the many peaks in the Zhongshan Mountain Range, it is still abundant in spiritual energy, much richer than ordinary places on the Eternal Ancient Continent.
The reason being,
because there are numerous Spirit Veins within the Zhongshan Mountain Range.
Beneath Qiu Peak, there happens to be a sizable Spirit Vein.
Indeed.
Spirit Vein!
In the Human Clan Realm, it's an extremely scarce resource, but in the Eternal Ancient Continent, it's almost everywhere.
Thinking about it carefully,
it's not incomprehensible.
After all, the Eternal Ancient Continent's spiritual energy is extremely abundant, and such rich spiritual energy couldn't have been born without adequate Spirit Veins. Additionally, overly abundant spiritual energy could indirectly breed new Spirit Veins.
It can be said that,
Spirit Veins in the Eternal Ancient Continent are not a rare commodity. Although you can't get as many as you want, there isn't a huge shortage either.
According to Zhongshan Chou's understanding,
there are no less than a hundred Spirit Veins within the Zhongshan Mountain Range.
"If I could extract all these hundred Spirit Veins and refine the Heart of Spirit Vein, wouldn't I be able to directly enter the Third Level of the Cave Heaven, even the Fourth Level of the Cave Heaven!"
A surge of impulse rose in Shen Changqing's heart.
However, 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
he quickly suppressed this impulse.
Extracting Spirit Veins,
is an act of seeking death.
Although there are many Spirit Veins in the Eternal Ancient Continent, they cannot be extracted at will, after all, the growth speed of the descendants of various clans is determined by the concentration of spiritual energy.
If each clan recklessly extracted Spirit Veins, it would be like uprooting the foundations of the Heavens Myriad Clans.
No clan would agree to such a thing happening.
Therefore,
although there are many Spirit Veins in the Eternal Ancient Continent, no clan dares to extract them, though some clans do it secretly, defying the norms.
If those extracting clans are not exposed, it's fine, but once exposed, the consequences are severe.
In fact,
many small clans have been annihilated for unapproved Spirit Vein extraction.
As a result,
although Shen Changqing is very tempted by the Zhongshan Clan's Spirit Veins, he doesn't dare to act recklessly.
If things are exposed,
not only would all Heavens Myriad Clans be against him, but the strong members of the Zhongshan Clan themselves would eliminate him first.
Above Qiu Peak, there is a group of buildings similar to palaces.
The main hall,
was where Zhongshan Chou used to live and cultivate, while the other side halls were residences for the Menial Attendants and Stewards of Qiu Peak.
Indeed.
Besides Cui Fu as Steward, Qiu Peak had Menial Attendants meant to handle daily affairs.
When Shen Changqing saw those Menial Attendants, he felt complicated inside.
First Five Levels of Heaven Being!
Ranked according to Demon Evil or Defender Envoys' tiers, each one is equivalent to a High-Level Demon Evil, or a King Rank Defender Envoy.
Such strong individuals, enough to establish power within the Human Clan, are mere Menial Attendants in Qiu Peak.
Menial Attendants.
Are considered the lowest tier.
But of course,
being a Menial Attendant to a genius like Zhongshan Chou is more privileged than others.
