Chapter 43 Discovering the Source
Qi Sheng sat cross-legged on the altar, with multiple split screens floating in front of him, live broadcasting the intense battle scenes of players in the Dark Cave.
After two consecutive days of attacks, players successfully advanced to the third underground level.
The number of Iron Shell Bugs here visibly increased, and there were plenty of controlled Earth Cave Clan beings wandering around, significantly increasing the intensity of combat.
While the frequency of player deaths increased, the output profits also rose.
To the players’ delight, the quality of the Spiritual Ore on the third underground level was much higher than that of the first level they had previously explored.
The main Spiritual Ore of the first level was Level 1 Energy Stone, whereas the ore mined from the third-level rock walls was mostly Level 2 Elemental Energy Stone, each one providing more than 10 points of sacrificial power feedback when offered to Emperor Zhao.
The only downside is the increased difficulty of mining.
The rock walls of the third level are hard, and it’s tough to break them open with just ordinary mining tools, requiring the purchase of more advanced tools from the store.
Consumption in battle, resurrection costs, equipment replacement, monster-killing outputs... After the task of Purifying the Dark Cave was released, Qi Sheng’s profits significantly increased.
The daily extraction of sacrificial power can recruit 60 players.
The total daily income flowing into the Sacrificial Pool is around 200,000, but besides his share of the sacrificial power, he does not touch the portion belonging to players unless under special circumstances.
