Chapter 1055: Chapter 1055: Blocking the Way and Not Letting Through

There were no days or moons in the cave, and everyone checked the time, only to realize that they had spent over half a month here already.

This Teleportation Altar would only be active for a month, and if they returned too late, they would completely miss it.

Yu Ping and Jiu Ge became anxious, "This is bad, we haven’t captured enough human traffickers, and now we’re out of time, right?"

"It’s all your fault for bringing us here. If we fail the task, the Saintess and all of us will be punished by our master."

Jiu Ge complained bitterly to Long Fei.

Long Fei waved his hand in front of Jiu Ge’s mouth, and instantly, her mouth was sealed as if taped shut, rendering her unable to speak.

He scared Jiu Ge, "You talk too much. I’ll punish you by not allowing you to speak for a month."

Jiu Ge whimpered in protest.

She looked at Wang Xiaoya with pitiful eyes, hoping the Saintess would plead for her.

Yu Ping also sought help, "Saintess, please help Jiu Ge!"

Wang Xiaoya smiled and said, "See if you dare to speak out of turn in the future. He is my husband, how dare you show him such disrespect?"

Jiu Ge and Yu Ping were completely dumbfounded, not expecting Wang Xiaoya to acknowledge it so generously.

Long Fei was also surprised and reassured everyone, "Don’t worry about the task. The Demon Race Chu Feng and I have slain here is enough to propel us into the top ten."

There were over a thousand Demonizers just now, and twelve Demon Soldiers.

Long Fei was confident that the number was astonishingly high.

The others breathed a sigh of relief, glad that they hadn’t delayed the real business at hand.

Master Chu and the Spider Queen, with no shame, came over with their arms wrapped around the Spider Queen’s waist and greeted everyone cheerfully.

A group of people looked at each other, taken aback.

The intimacy was overwhelming and hard to accept.

Long Fei asked Chu Feng, "What’s this about?"

Chu Feng introduced, "Little Spider has decided to become my Demon Servant, and from now on we are all friends."

The Spider Queen waved her hand and sweetly said to everyone, "My apologies for any offenses before, please be generous in your forgiveness."

Lin Shanshan and the others shivered, as if they had seen a tiger acting coquettish to them.

Long Fei chuckled to himself, thinking he really couldn’t compare to Master Chu.

To not waste time, they all talked while walking and didn’t stay long in the cave.

Long Fei asked the Spider Queen about the situation here, and as he had guessed, she shared some fragmented secrets.

According to the ancestors of the Spider Queen, this place was originally a graveyard of the gods.

For some unknown reason, many gods had died here, turning the underground blue.

Long Fei and his companions nodded, acknowledging that this place must hold extraordinary secrets, likely being an ancient battlefield.

He asked the Spider Queen about the Azure Blade Material, which when forged into a weapon, was of infinite wonder.

The divine substance on it could extinguish human souls.

The Spider Queen candidly admitted that the mining material fit for weapon forging, the Azure Ore, was something you could encounter but not seek.

For thousands of miles around, it was all this blue stone.

But ore rich in metal was extremely rare, unless they turned the underground upside down in search.

Her own Azure Sword was also an accidental discovery within the Cave of Silver Web.

It was said to contain remnants of the divine weapons from the ancient war, hence its formidable power.

Everyone understood that the special nature of this location was entirely due to it being a relic of an ancient war.

Whether it was Divine Blood or Divine Weaponry, it all transformed into something resembling ore.

Long Fei put away his idea of weapon forging for now, considering himself highly fortunate to have obtained twelve Demon Blades from the Demon Soldiers.

The group hurried towards the borders of Great Xia Country and along the way saw many places that had become ruins.

Some mountaintops were still engulfed in thick smoke, clearly from a recent great battle.

The two hundred plus trial participants, accompanied by their servants, also formed a powerful team.

The Demon Race hadn’t fully revived yet, and those battling outside were all Demonizers.

The Demonizers alone were not enough to trouble the trialists.

Everyone made their way back, not provoking any powers, and it took two days to reach Phoenix City.

However, when they inquired about the date, they were nearly scared to death.

Today was the last day, and after sunset, the teleportation channel would close completely.

Upon hearing this, everyone was so anxious that they didn’t rest and headed straight for Southern Border City.

The Spider Queen split off from the group, telling them to go ahead and she would follow shortly.

There were still over a hundred Spider Tribe members without shelter, so she went to the City Lord’s Mansion to ask the Peacock Demon King to receive her tribe members.

An ancient demon of over a thousand years had some clout here.

The largest checkpoint of Southern Border City, Sword Mountain Pass, was flanked by two sword-like mountains soaring into the clouds, said to be five or six thousand meters tall.

Between the two mountains was a pass.

It was about one hundred thousand meters wide, and the entire span was fortified with high city walls.

Not until coming to this world would one realize city walls could be built over a thousand meters high, all made of giant green stones.

Mystic Patterns were inscribed on these boulders.

They, along with the two sides of Sword Mountain, formed a large Defense Formation.

Long Fei confirmed that even the top experts of this world wouldn’t be able to destroy these walls.

There were no gates in the wall, just teleportation arrays serving as passages on both sides.

When they originally left, there was no time for a close look.

Now, taking a careful look from the outside, everyone was filled with awe.

"Great Xia’s number one pass is indeed well-deserved," said Young Master Chu, who couldn’t help but praise and genuinely express his admiration.

Long Fei calculated that the height was about as tall as the skyscrapers in the outside world.

He was equally astonished, "With this pass in place, even if the Demon Calamity were to erupt, our Human Race would not be reduced to mere fish meat."

Ji Wanyu furrowed her brows, "Will those monsters really bring disaster to the Human Realm?"

When it came to concern for the country and the people, no one could surpass Ji Wanyu.

She was a Royal princess by birth, inherently carrying the world in her heart.

Long Fei said, "It’s inevitable, this world is always changing, it’s just that there are some inside stories we are not aware of yet. This time your sister’s marriage selection is probably because the Royal Family has other intentions."

Ji Wanyu agreed with this view; previously, marriages of princesses were never this troublesome.

The Old Emperor’s reluctance to abdicate had caused constant disputes within the Imperial Court, and it was definitely not without reason.

They reached the base of the city wall and shouted up, "Quickly open the Teleportation Array, we need to enter."

There was a Teleportation Altar outside, and as long as the Teleportation Array was activated, the altar’s Domain Gate would open.

Usually, there were many people here, but now there was not a single one.

Ordinary people couldn’t be heard shouting up to soldiers on walls that were over a thousand meters high.

But Long Fei was communicating with spiritual power, and the soldiers on the wall were all aware.

A soldier called down, "Stop shouting, the Governor has ordered a state of siege for a day, you can come back tomorrow!"

Chu Feng cursed, "Damn it, tomorrow the cooked ducks will be cold. If you don’t open the Domain Gate, I might have to force my way through!"

The soldier yelled, "You’ve got guts, kid, to talk to me like that. Go ahead and try to force your way in if you dare, do you think our Border Army is just for show?"

Ji Wanyu blocked Chu Feng and shouted up, "Listen, I am the Crown Prince’s daughter, the Princess of Pure Tranquility, and I’m well acquainted with your Governor. Open the Domain Gate and let us in, I will explain to your Governor myself."

The soldier shouted back, "Sorry, Your Royal Highness The Princess. The Governor said that today nobody is allowed to enter this city. Even if the Crown Prince himself came, we still couldn’t open the Domain Gate."

The soldiers of the border, far from the Emperor’s reach, only followed the Governor’s orders and did not take the Crown Prince seriously at all.

Ji Wanyu angrily cursed, "Damn it, what insolence!"
