Chapter 263: Dig as Long as It Won't Kill You

Looking at their listless and despairing expressions, one could tell how bad their days there were.

Ye Xuan looked at the dark circles under their eyes and couldn't help but ask, "How many days have they not slept?"

"There's no such thing as sleeping. These people have high cultivation. Even if we've sealed them, it's fine if they don't sleep for a few days and nights and just mine here."

Qian Yuan's golden eyes flashed with the cruelty and bloodlust of a demonic beast. But when facing Ye Xuan, those auras faded away.

It was no wonder that Qian Yuan only captured those with high cultivation and released those with low cultivation. So, this was why he did that.

Even if the bodies of cultivators were strong and much better than that of ordinary people, they couldn't withstand such high-intensity work. The double torture of the mind and the body was far more effective than punishing them directly. It could be said that they were better off dead.
