Pay to Cultivate Immortality? My Sect is Completely Free - Chapter 395

Chapter 395 A Thick Ascenders Roster

“I found a… roster on the Gao clan patriarch,” Tianzhu said as he came over, handing across a thick register.

His voice was low; whatever was written on that list had clearly filled him with raging anger.

Su Bai looked and saw five large characters on the cover of the thick volume.

Ascenders roster!!

Su Bai opened to the first page and read several shocking lines in large script.

“First batch of ascenders from the Ascension Platform: total of 361 rogue immortals and one earthly immortal.
At this time the Immortal Realm was in a post-war reconstruction period and desperately needed powerful servants, so prices were high.
Sold to the North Plains Wang clan for 3,610 lower-grade immortal crystals and ten intermediate-grade immortal crystals!”

Su Bai flipped to the second page.

“Second batch of ascenders from the Ascension Platform: total of 428 rogue immortals and two earthly immortals.
Assigned to the Dongshan Mining Zone affiliated with the Gao clan; ordered to mine until they die!”

Third page.

“Third batch of ascenders from the Ascension Platform: total of 568 rogue immortals and four earthly immortals.
Sold to the Greenleaf Immortal Sect in the Northern Spirit Region; the sect granted our Gao clan three inner sect quotas!”

…

Page 1,001.

“1,001st batch of ascenders from the Ascension Platform: total of 311 rogue immortals and zero earthly immortals.
The first peak construction period had passed; prices dropped slightly.
Sold to the slave market for a total of 2,900 immortal crystals.”

…

Page 9,926.

“9,926th batch of ascenders from the Ascension Platform: total of 611 rogue immortals and seven earthly immortals.
Ascension Platform across the lands have stabilized output; prices have fallen to their lowest.
Sold to the Wang clan of Qingshui City for a total of 611 lower-grade immortal crystals and seven intermediate-grade immortal crystals.”

…

“In addition, there were a total of 108,000 female ascenders—either given to Big Shots for pleasure or awarded to clan prodigies.
There were also over ten thousand ascenders of peerless genius talent, from whom a total of 13,024 immortal bones were harvested!”

…

In total, one thousand pages!

Inside were the fates of every ascender who had ascended on the Gao clan city’s Ascension Platform over the million years!

Those simple lines contained the bloody conclusions for countless ascenders!

“About five million ascenders in total—either sold, enslaved, sent to mine, forced to harvest immortal bones, or used for others’ pleasure.”

Tianzhu clenched down on his fury as he tallied the numbers.

Over five million ascenders!

They were peerless geniuses forged in their own worlds; they should have had far better futures!

But after ascending, they stepped into a dead end!

Not slain by demons, but killed by their own race!!

“Except for the last few dozen pages, the people listed in the previous 9,900 pages—those folks have probably already died of old age.”

“I counted: on the final one hundred pages, those arranged or sold within the Gao clan’s territory amount to thirty-two pages, roughly a little over ten thousand people.”

“The majority of them are not yet at the end of their lifespans; perhaps we can still rescue them!”

Tianzhu paused there, then looked up at Su Bai.

Over ten thousand ascenders who had ascended within ten thousand years…

“According to the positions on these lists, you and I will go separately and rescue them all!”

Su Bai ordered, then split off with Tianzhu in two directions to search the locations on the roster.

At the same time, his Second True Form also set out; the three of them searching together made the rescue far more efficient!

With his clones suppressing Gao clan city, nothing much could go wrong there!

………………

Thirty-eight hundred million li outside Gao clan city’s northeast gate, there was an immortal crystal mine.

This was the Gao clan’s largest immortal crystal mine, guarded by an elder of ninth-grade heavenly immortal rank!

There were more than two thousand “miners” in this immortal crystal mine!

Keep in mind, to be a miner at an immortal crystal mine, the minimum cultivation base was rogue immortal!!!

At this moment, inside the mine.

“Clang clang clang!”

The sounds of mining rang out constantly, accompanied by low, urgent whispers.

“Damn it, I ascended to pursue longevity, not to be someone’s beast of burden digging crystals!”

“Shh, keep your voice down. Do you want to die? Have you already forgotten how Brother Zhang and the others died?”

“Goddamn it, on what grounds do they make us ascendants go mine!!”

“Sigh, who told them their strength is greater than ours?”

Among the more than two thousand miners, a significant number were ascendants.

But the mining area was heavily guarded by powerful Gao clan figures; they simply couldn’t escape!

“I’m not digging any more!!”

Suddenly a loud roar erupted. This was from an ascendant in the supreme realm who abruptly refused to continue!

“What do you think you’re doing, trying to die!”

A Gao clan heavenly immortal strode over and whipped him hard with a leather lash.

“You promised we’d stop after a thousand years; it’s been two thousand years already. How much longer do you expect us to dig?”

This supreme ascendant had a violent temper; even as the whip tore open his skin and blood flowed, he kept cursing angrily.

“Heh heh!!!”

The Gao clan heavenly immortal sneered repeatedly, looking at the supreme ascendant with mockery and taunted, “Letting you mine is giving you a chance to live!”

“If you won’t dig, there are plenty who will!!”

“You ascendants—no matter how glorious you were before, now that you’ve entered our Gao clan, you will kneel to us!”

After speaking, he kicked the supreme ascendant into the deep mining pit.

Scenes like this played out in every corner; the miners were furious but utterly helpless.

They were forced to work day and night, while the Gao clan elder of ninth-grade heavenly immortal rank lounged leisurely in the pool of his palace, served by dozens of beauties.

He had already felt the battle fluctuations coming from Gao clan city, but paid them no mind.

Battles in the Gao clan happened all the time; the Old Ancestor would always suppress them!

He never worried. He simply indulged in the beauties’ service—after all his years cultivating, wasn’t this the day to lie drunk on a beauty’s lap?

“Beauty, come lick my feet!”

The ninth-grade heavenly immortal elder called contentedly, stretching out his big black foot toward one of the maidservants.

“Ah~~~!”

The maid seemed new; frightened, she screamed and pulled away.

“Fuck, filthy bitch, you dare pull back?! Believe it or not I’ll slaughter your entire clan!”

The Gao clan elder flew into a rage, glaring at her fiercely and roaring like a fiend.

The maid trembled in fear and dared not move an inch.

“Hahaha, a lowly maid is just a lowly maid!!!”

Seeing this, the Gao clan elder smiled with satisfaction, just about to enjoy a little game of pleasure when his brow suddenly furrowed and his face changed drastically!

“Boom!”

The entire palace was blasted apart, and an overwhelming aura pinned him so he couldn’t move.

A figure appeared before him, looking at him with cold eyes.

“Tr… True Immortal…”

Feeling the might in that figure, the Gao clan elder’s legs trembled nonstop; they went weak instantly, terror and disbelief flooding his eyes.

“Die!”

As Su Bai’s single word fell, this ninth-grade heavenly immortal of the Gao clan instantly perished!

At the same time, Su Bai looked at the dozens of trembling maidservants kneeling on the ground and couldn’t help but sigh softly.

“Put your clothes on. You’re all free now—go home.”
