After leaving the Golden Character Domain, he discovered that most other areas were even worse off than the Golden Character Domain.

Especially the regions near the Ten Thousand Mountains.

Let alone the big cities of the Mortal World, even the workshops and Cultivation Family settlements no longer existed.

Many Spirit Veins and Spirit Fields were left vacant there, appearing to have been abandoned for at least several years.

This showed that the danger level of this region was not only high but also frequent.

Otherwise, even if there was only a one-tenth chance of harvest,

these desolate Spirit Fields would definitely attract Loose Cultivators to come and take a gamble on farming.

“It seems, apart from Guardian Immortal Cities, there might be no other place where people are still alive.”

Su Ping came near a collapsed Scripture Pavilion; after scanning it with his Divine Sense, he waved his Divine Skills arm, and together they began to remove a large number of books from inside.

These miscellaneous books, which neither had been taken away for various reasons nor had attracted cultivators to come back to retrieve them, Su Ping found them pitiful, for they could be destroyed by vermin at any moment.

He decided to find them a new home.

Such a meritorious act was not the first time Su Ping had performed in recent days.

With the help of a Storage Spirit Artifact, it didn’t take too much time.

“Hmm?”

Su Ping noticed a thin Black Skin Book and let it fly to his face.

This book had no name, but it was well-preserved and carried a faint fragrance.

After confirming it was free of Evil Qi, a curious Su Ping used his Divine Power to open the book.

He discovered it was a notebook on the study of the Incense Fire Divine Path.

Inside were many theoretical studies and bold conjectures, which brightened Su Ping’s eyes.

He thought this person might be related talent?

After finishing the book, Su Ping learned that the owner of the notebook was a Loose Cultivator with an inferior spiritual root who, through hard work and a bit of luck, received the Incense Fire Divine Path inheritance.

He later came to this Spirit Vein’s master’s house and became a son-in-law, thus getting many resources to continue his research.

This notebook had been left from his youth, and if he hadn’t died, he probably would have gone with his family to Guardian Immortal City or another region.

Su Ping memorized the name of the notebook owner: Kui Ming.

Unfortunately, there was no portrait of him, only records suggesting it was Mu Family from Tulin City.

After placing the Black Skin Notebook specially into the storage bag in his sleeve,

Su Ping left the now uninhabited ruins.

Several two-hour periods later, he had entered the guarding range of the Guardian Immortal City.

Su Ping saw circles of colorful halos appearing on the horizon in the sky, like waves splashing from a lake, continuously spreading, disappearing, and then re-forming…

This was because the first-generation Immortal Chi Yuan suppressed ten million demons and forced those Demon Emperors to hide in the Ten Thousand Mountains.

Directly forging thirty-six Guardian Immortal Cities, thereby setting up the Heaven and Earth Net Array covering the entire Ten Thousand Mountains.

Because of this array, the Ten Thousand Mountains a thousand years ago was just a hunting ground left by the Immortal Chi Yuan Sect for the Inner Sect Disciples.

And the powerful demons above the Demon King, as soon as they left the mountain’s Forbidden Land secret realm, would trigger the array restrictions and not only be restrained by the formation but would also be located and quickly mobilized by the Immortal City’s powerhouses to become their Spiritual Beasts or various precious spiritual materials!

Yet unexpectedly, a thousand years later, as the Immortal Chi Yuan Sect encountered problems, the demons had reversed the roles, starting to actively attack the Guardian Immortal City.

Occasionally, groups of Qi Cultivation and Foundation Establishment demons would break through the defenses and move deep inside, causing the Mortal World’s beings to suffer immensely!

Having seen the heavenly anomaly and walking a little longer, Su Ping finally saw fellow practitioners.

It was a large station on the official road, where dozens of caravans traveling together had stopped, confronting a group of Wolf Demons ahead.

These were all teams going to the Guardian Immortal City, primarily comprising Loose Cultivators and Martial Artists.

The main transport was daily life materials, which, if transported by Immortal Boats, would be far too expensive, so after a few shipments, merchants noticed a huge margin for profit and chose to continue to maintain the land-based trade routes.

Of course, thanks to the Merit Immense Immortal Sect Elder, the land-based warehouses were also filled with a wooden frame full of storage bags.

Allowing dozens of caravans each month to meet the needs of the lower and middle-class residents of the entire Immortal City.

Their clientele were naturally mainly the descendants of the Loose Cultivators and Martial Artists from Guardian Immortal City.

Because of this, they received the Immortal City’s Order Token, allowing them to get formation protection for a short time in case of danger, thus getting priority rescue by the city’s patrolling teams.

This, over the years, kept the risk and return reasonable, thus maintaining the existence of these caravans.

Allowing Su Ping to witness the scene in front of him.

The caravan’s leader was a Crane-Haired Youth-Faced old man who had achieved Qi Cultivation Perfection.

He held the Order Token that could summon the power of the formation in his left hand and waved his right hand, signaling several strong men to throw chunks of frozen fresh meat.

It seemed he hoped to bribe the Wolf Demons with this meat to avoid the conflict.

From the expressions of those strong men and other people in the caravan,

it wasn’t their first time avoiding direct conflict with these demon beasts in this way.

However, this time, a white wolf emerged from among the demons.

This white wolf glanced at the heaps of fresh meat, which quickly amounted to several thousand pounds, and slightly shook its head, unexpectedly speaking in human language:

“Leave all your goods, and you can safely depart.”

Hearing this demand, the caravan leader’s expression became stern, and he retreated back among the caravan.
