The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 1719 1719: Maoqiong Ridge

After leaving Shuanghe City, Jing Yan and Mo Ku have been on the road continuously.

The two of them are steadily approaching Maoqiong Ridge.

Maoqiong Ridge is where the Extreme Land is located and is the final destination for Jing Yanʼs journey to the Witch Realm.

The journey from Shuanghe City to Maoqiong Ridge is extremely lengthy. Jing Yan and Mo Ku flew for nearly ten years before entering the area of Maoqiong Ridge.

Of course, if using the Teleportation Arrays located across various places, the journey from Shuanghe City to Maoqiong Ridge would be much quicker.

Jing Yan is not in a hurry to reach Maoqiong Ridge, so he did not specifically seek out the Teleportation Array controlled by some major forces. Instead, he journeyed with Mo Ku on the Chaos Flying Ship, slowly flying towards Maoqiong Ridge. During the journey approaching Maoqiong Ridge, it wasnʼt a waste of time as Jing Yan was almost constantly cultivating.

Jing Yan and Mo Ku do not know that the two of them have gained quite a reputation in the Shamanic Clouds Domain.

On the day Jing Yan and Mo Ku dismantled the Double Evil Gang in Shuanghe City, they left without knowing the subsequent events.

The Chief Manager of the Shan Clan Tribe, Shan Ji, found the Image Crystal Ball recording this battle and then copied more Image Crystal Balls and distributed them.

The Shan Clan Tribe saw the Image Crystal Ball, and the Zhao Clan also saw the Image Crystal Ball. Not only that, many major forces within the Shamanic Clouds Domain watched this Image Crystal Ball and remembered the appearances of Jing Yan and Mo Ku.

It can be said that if Jing Yan and Mo Ku were to use the Teleportation Array during their journey to Maoqiong Ridge, their peace might have already been disrupted. Because they traveled using the Chaos Flying Ship, their journey was mostly undisturbed, encountering only some robber bandits, whose strength was average. Mo Ku easily dealt with those who dared to challenge them.

The demise of the Double Evil Gang undoubtedly enraged the Zhao Clan.

The two bastards in the Image Crystal Balls fiercely humiliated the Zhao Clan. In the Shamanic Clouds Domain, who dares to recklessly offend the Zhao Clan?

The Zhao Clan then voiced their anger, declaring the desire to tear to pieces those two bastards in the Image Crystal Balls.

Up to now, the forces in the Shamanic Clouds Domain still do not know the names of Jing Yan and Mo Ku. But this is not important; as long as their appearances are known, they can be tracked.

...

On this day, Jing Yan and Mo Ku disembarked from the Chaos Flying Ship, stored it away, and landed on the ground.

Because ahead is Maoqiong Ridge.

In the Shamanic Clouds Domain, Maoqiong Ridge is a very special place. It does not belong to any single large force.

Or one can say Maoqiong Ridge is jointly controlled by all the Five-star forces in the Shamanic Clouds Domain.

Long ago, many major forces in the Shamanic Clouds Domain continuously fought to seize control of Maoqiong Ridge. Despite losing many members, no single force could completely occupy Maoqiong Ridge. Due to the immense losses, those major forces sat down to negotiate, finally reaching an agreement to jointly control Maoqiong Ridge.

Maoqiong Ridge is valued by all major forces precisely because of the presence of the Extreme Land.

Entering the Extreme Land for cultivation is not easy. Especially after being jointly occupied by nine Five-star forces, the difficulty to enter the Extreme Land increased.

To enter the Extreme Land, one must pay a sufficient amount of Wizard Crystal.

Indeed, as long as there is enough Wizard Crystal, any cultivator can enter the Extreme Land. To cultivate inside, regardless of who you are, you must present sufficient Wizard Crystal. Even members of the nine Five-star forces are no exceptions.

Once the nine Five-star forces took control of Maoqiong Ridge, they amassed wealth from the Wizard Crystals submitted by cultivators wishing to enter the Extreme Land. For the nine Five-star forces, the Extreme Land is like a money tree.

The Extreme Land is not a special treasure; it is a naturally formed Secret Realm, completely different from the Reincarnation Path mastered by Lady Nu Zhen.

Cultivating in the Extreme Land indeed provides cultivators with incomparable advantages in mastering Time Law and Space Law. Over the years, many cultivators in the Witch Realm have mastered these laws to a Complete realm through cultivation in the Extreme Land.

However, there is one similarity between the Extreme Land and the Reincarnation Path: every cultivator can only enter the Extreme Land once for cultivation. After entering once, one cannot enter a second time. Although it is a naturally formed special Secret Realm, the Extreme Land has immutable rules.

In the Witch Realm, the allure of the Extreme Land is undoubtedly immense. Yet, the Wizard Crystals required to enter the Extreme Land are enough to deter most Great Witch realm cultivators.

Most Great Witch-level beings cannot provide that much Wizard Crystal.

Jing Yan and Mo Ku entered Maoqiong Ridge without encountering any obstruction. It seems there are no guards here.

And of course, Maoqiong Ridge is jointly held by nine Five-star forces; who dares to cause trouble here? Unless one wishes to die young!

Internally, Maoqiong Ridge is actually somewhat chaotic. None of the nine Five-star forces have absolute control, which results in less orderly management of this place.

Clashes and fights frequently occur in Maoqiong Ridge.

Shortly after Jing Yan entered Maoqiong Ridge, he witnessed two cultivators fighting right on the street. This fight ended with one of the cultivators being killed. After the fight, the surviving cultivator patted his butt, turned around, and left without any punishment.

This gave Jing Yan more insight into the order within Maoqiong Ridge.

In this place, without sufficient strength, it is best to live humbly; otherwise, one might be killed by a displeased cultivator at any time.

”Here we are!”

”This is already the center of Maoqiong Ridge; the entrance to the Extreme Land is just ahead.” Jing Yan narrowed his eyes slightly.

Around here, there are many powerful cultivators, occasionally even seeing cultivators at the Great Witch level.

Standing there, Jing Yan could see a rather large plaza ahead.

In this plaza, there are many stalls.

Among these stalls, a significant portion, about half, looks rather peculiar. These stalls donʼt display any resources at all. Typically, stalls display resources for sale. But these special stalls are completely empty, with only a cultivator standing or sitting behind the stall.

In the center of each stall, there is a wooden stick inserted into the ground, with a large piece of cloth hanging from it and some words written on it.

Jing Yan approached a bit closer and saw the words on the cloth.

”Interesting!”

”These stalls are actually accepting Alchemy commissions!” Jing Yanʼs eyes flickered.
