Dragon-Phoenix Ridge

This ancient region, ever since the existence of the North Territory, was exceptionally renowned within the territory. Especially after Dragon-Phoenix Rift was discovered, the popularity of this vast area had soared tremendously, turning itself into one of the most prominent regions in the North Territory.

During this time, Dragon-Phoenix Rift would be revealing itself once again. Thus, the region had been receiving an overwhelming, almost close to a truly horrifying, amount of visitors. Within thousands of miles, the neverending breaking sound of the wind could be heard, as flying figures flit towards Dragon-Phoenix Ridge, showering the sky like a swarm of locusts.

Dragon-Phoenix Rift was so renowned in the North Territory, that almost all the top powers from the younger generation would not dare forgo this chance to make a name for themselves. But the most essential reason for its fame was, of course, due to its own attractiveness.

When Mu Chen and Cai Xiao arrived at Dragon-Phoenix Ridge, the timing was just right to witness the spectacular scene, where the immense horde swarm to the town, like locusts in transition. Even Mu Chen was taken aback by such a display.

Those figures were not like any other ordinary people. They came from various forces, and in their respective forces, they were the cream of the crop, from the younger generation. However, even the brightest stars would be buried under the overwhelming crowd when they would arrive here.

Mu Chen was extremely amazed, as he had met some of the most outstanding among the younger generation in the Northern Heavens Continent, but none of them were comparable, be it in numbers or quality, to these people in the North Territory. After all, this was the place that gathered all the elites from the Great Thousand World.

By this time, Mu Chen finally grasped the vastness of this North Territory. Even Daluo Territory was only comparable to one of its corners. And to think that the North Territory makes up just a small part of the Tianluo Continent! This Tianluo Continent, undoubtedly, is right to be known as the supercontinent.

“Let’s go to the Dragon-Phoenix Old Town. That is the closest place to the opening of Dragon-Phoenix Rift.” Mu Chen pointed to a place located deep within Dragon-Phoenix Ridge as he said this. A faint outline of a magnificent town was visible at an incredibly far distance.

Cai Xiao looked around curiously, then nodded without adding any other opinion.

Mu Chen darted out, but slowed down his speed after about ten minutes. He was slightly shocked by the scene in front of him. Towering mountains seemed to have been forcibly squeezed and pushed together by a dominant force. On each of the mountains, giant palm prints could be vaguely seen.

Above those mountains, an ancient town, with no end in sight, was resting upon them. The mountains were filled with the mottled traces of time, while the old and run-down town was engulfed with vicissitudes of life.

At the edge of the town stood towering stone pagodas. On top of the pagodas, the presence of the Spiritual Energy fluctuation vaguely remained. This presence was not something new to them. It was none other than the Spiritual Array fluctuation.

In that ancient time, there must be a mighty Spiritual Array overhead, that faded with the passage of time. This dominant Spiritual Array, which had once disdained the entire universe, was also unable to withstand time, and thus, would eventually wear off.

The town was shockingly enormous. Even with the endless rays of lights sweeping across it, landing in the city like locusts, it did not seem to have even the slightest congestion.

Mu Chen and Cai Xiao plunged into the town, finding themselves standing on a busy stone street. As soon as they appeared, they attracted numerous pairs of eyes, all staring at them.

To be exact, the glares were all directed at Cai Xiao, who was following Mu Chen. Cai Xiao, who was already accustomed to such attention, could naturally ignore them. However, Mu Chen was not used to it at all. The onlookers’ focus would shift to him, after they saw Cai Xiao. The hostility in their gazes was startlingly self-evident.

“Troubles.”

Mu Chen could not help but sigh.

Cai Xiao threw him a glare that eluded her spell-binding charms, which could even make his heartbeat skip, not to mention the rest who had been captivated by her charms. Hence, Mu Chen fled with Cai Xiao immediately, before the situation could become uncontrollable.

However, even though she had been attracting too much attention along the way, she still seemed to have her ways of sussing out information effortlessly. She just had to beam and ask a person, and that person would stumble and reveal everything he knew.

“Let’s go to the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion.”

Another unlucky fellow was getting bewitched by Cai Xiao. Mu Chen looked over to the south of the town. According to the information she had obtained earlier, there was a place named the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion in this old town. All the latest and most complete information about Dragon-Phoenix Rift could be found there.

They walked through the bustling town, eventually stopping at the north side of the city. They looked up in front of them, only to see a tall and upright golden pavilion, standing in silence.

The pavilion was unique in shape, decorated with dragons and phoenixes mingling at the side. A faint aura, containing the energy from a real dragon and a real phoenix, was emitting from its outer walls. At this time, many light rays were beaming towards its direction.
