Chapter 622 (1/2)
Chapter 622
The chaos region was located to the far east . The Eastern Wasteland was already known as a barren land, but the chaos region was indescribably desolate .
There was not a blade of gra.s.s growing within millions of miles . It was not a desert, nor was the ground rock . It was a vast, earthen land . But there was nothing that grew out of this soil .
Tens of thousands of years ago, there had been someone to notice mineral deposits here . This barren land, which no one had shown any interest in before, immediately became a land of gold .
Countless sects flocked over from both the Righteous and Corrupt paths . The first thing to do here was to fight for territory .
As a result, a huge war had erupted . Rivers of blood had flowed from both sides . Oftentimes, when the Righteous path fought such large scale wars with the Corrupt path, when they lost a certain number of people, the Righteous path would give up and retreat .
But with the thick profits in front of them, the Righteous path erupted with unprecedented strength, and that immense war greatly harmed the core strength of the two paths .
In the end, both parties had no choice but to temporarily put a halt to their battles . They took up their own territories, each side mining their own ores .
Both sides had each minded their own business, forming a temporary ceasefire . But although the battle between the Righteous and Corrupt paths had ended, a civil war had then erupted within the Righteous path . That was because those individual powers all hoped to get more territories and profit .
Because they had partic.i.p.ated in the immense war with the Corrupt path, they had lost many of their experts . They needed more profit to make up for it . As a result, who had helped the most and who had helped the least had become a matter of controversial discussion .
For a huge existence like the Xuantian Dao Sect, they naturally had to have a larger territory than others . But the other large powers also wanted to obtain a larger territory . In the end, no one yielded to anyone, and a battle began again .
The Xuantian Dao Sect had also tried to mediate, but it had little effect . Although it appeared like they had laid down their arms in public, the various powers began to stab each other in the back .
If they didn’t overstep their territories to mine ore, they secretly played dirty tricks, intentionally collapsing other powers’ mines . The situation grew more and more disorderly until the Corrupt path finally joined in . The war broke out again .
In the end, everyone had no choice but to turn this place into a kind of training ground . Everyone agreed that no one was permitted to send Sea Expansion experts or above . The ore they could extract would be based on the strength of the disciples they sent over .
As a result, countless experts were sent over to the chaos region each year . They not only protected their own mines, but they also often looked for opportunities to pull some sinister tricks .
Over time, the chaos region became a completely lawless place . Everyone here had to live in worry . It was worse than living in a prison .
Within the chaos region, there was a simple and crude city that was simply named Chaos City . This was the only city in the vicinity .
Members of both the Righteous and Corrupt paths would go there to eat and drink . Chaos City’s most prosperous businesses were its brothel and casino .
Any people who were sent here, no matter what side they were on, were all people who had made mistakes and were being penalized . There were also a few fugitives who didn’t like being constrained .
As long as you dared risk your life here, it was extremely easy to make a profit . Any miner could make as much as an ordinary sect’s core disciple .
So despite this place being extremely disorderly, despite the fact that you could lose your life at any moment, there were still countless criminals who gathered here .
Buzz .
A transportation formation lit up, and Long Chen’s group appeared on the fringes of the chaos region . They saw an endless, barren land before them .
“Boss, this is a bit too desolate . ” Guo Ran looked around . The ground was covered with dust, and an aura of decay filled the air .
“This place is just the border . There’s no way to use a transportation formation into the core of the chaos region . ” Long Chen laughed .
“Why not?”
“Because this place is just too chaotic . It’s possible for a slaughter to erupt at any moment . There’s no way to maintain a transportation formation here . ”
“Tch, you stupid brats, hurry up and get off . No one can use the transportation formation while you stand on it . ”
Just as Long Chen was examining his surroundings, a dozen Xiantian experts appeared beside the formation . The one angrily yelling at them was a man with a blade scar on his face .
These people in charge of the transportation formation were on the side of the Righteous path . They didn’t belong to any sect . Their members rotated through to protect the formation . That way, it was less likely for anyone to destroy it .
Long Chen smiled coldly . He walked out of the formation first . Meng Qi and Tang Wan-er followed behind him . This transportation formation had been large enough for all the Dragonblood Legion to arrive in one go .
“Oh, these two girls really are beautiful . Little girl, how about you come with me-”
A Xiantian expert looked at Meng Qi and Tang Wan-er lewdly, but he only got half his words out before Long Chen pointed his finger at him . A bolt of lightning turned him into a b.l.o.o.d.y mist .
That Xiantian expert’s death startled all the other guards . They had already sensed that these people’s cultivation bases were only in the Meridian Opening realm . That was the only reason that person had dared to take some liberties . They hadn’t expected that a sentence from him would send him directly to the gates of the Yama King .
“Who are you people?” Another Xiantian expert cautiously shouted, raising his weapon .
“It’s not important who we are . Let me just tell you a simple principle: a loose tongue can cause a great deal of trouble,” said Long Chen indifferently .
“b.a.s.t.a.r.d, you really are arrogant . Die!”
Who knew whether it was because this person was given a boost in confidence from the weapon in his hand, but he actually stabbed his spear at Long Chen .
