The major forces of the South Territory are, of course, dominated by the Wind Cloud Sect and the Divine Martial Sect.

However, the Sect Master Feng Yun Xiner of the Wind Cloud Sect is still quite young, so the words of the Sect Leader of the Divine Martial Sect hold more weight.

"Everyone, we are all well aware of the recent changes at the Demon Beast Ridge. It’s not just a simple Heavenly Punishment, but rather the emergence of an ancient Spirit Beast. The benefits of acquiring this ancient Spirit Beast by any force are self-evident!" said the Sect Leader of the Divine Martial Sect calmly.

He is an extremely dignified middle-aged man with an impenetrable aura, reportedly having reached approximately the Fifth Level of the Heavenly Martial Realm!

A master of such caliber should not even be in this Sixth Region. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

However, the South Territory is somewhat unique. Even at such a realm, one can still cultivate in the South Territory, though the progress is considerably slower.

"What the Sect Leader says is true, but what we are most concerned about are the people from the Inland. If they seize this opportunity, regardless of which force in the South Territory gains the Spirit Beast, it will greatly benefit the entire South Territory! We might even have the chance to return to the Inland. But if the Inland forces obtain it, things could get dire for us! Not only would we lose hope of touching the Inland, but we might also face the risk of being annihilated!"

The speaker was actually the head of the bandits!

Though the bandits don’t have a good reputation in the South Territory, they occupy half of the South Territory. With such a major event happening in the South Territory, it’s certain they would make an appearance.

"Exactly, that’s the case, and as everyone can see, just a little probing and they revealed themselves. There are definitely many experts from the Inland this time!" said Feng Yun Xiner sharply.

"Alas, when it comes to the foundation, how can we compare to the Inland? If only a few of those old undying ones come out, we would stand no chance. I can’t believe they wouldn’t be tempted by the ancient Spirit Beast. It’s even nobler than the Dragon Clan’s bloodline of today!" said a Sect Leader from the Purple Manor.

At these words, everyone fell silent.

After all, while the South Territory has developed rapidly, its foundation is still lacking.

"This is something that can’t be helped, we can only see what fate decides. After all, although the Spirit Beast is young, it’s not something just anyone can tame! It is, after all, a first-generation Demon Beast. The Dragon Clan’s bloodline may be noble, but in the Sixth Region, the Dragon Clan’s bloodline is not pure at all; otherwise, how could even the Third Empire be unable to resist them!" said the Sect Leader of the Divine Martial Sect.

In fact, whether it’s the Dragon Clan or the Phoenix Clan, the descendants are considerable. Today’s Dragon Clan is merely a branch closest to the ancient Dragon Clan’s bloodline.

"What should we do outside? The people from the Inland are too arrogant! Should we teach them a lesson?" said Feng Yun Xiner.

The people of the South Territory, regardless of gender, are competitive and aggressive. Even if they know they are no match, there is no reason to retreat.

"Heh heh, there’s no need to say more about that. After all, there are many talented disciples from our sects as well, so they might as well use this opportunity for training! If those old guys dare to confront our younger generation, then we can also exercise our muscles!" said the Sect Leader of the Purple Manor with a smile.

Many people laughed upon hearing this.

"By the way, is the one from the Divine Martial Sect still around?"

The Sect Leader of the Purple Manor suddenly asked a question.

Immediately, everyone fell silent again.

That person is truly a prodigious talent, coming to the South Territory from the Divine Healer Valley, he then founded the Divine Martial Sect, allowing for instances of withstanding the Inland. Before that, the forces of the South Territory were quite weak and were simply targets of Inland eradication, even treated on par with Demon Beasts by Inland people.

"The Patriarch is still around!" said the Sect Leader of the Divine Martial Sect faintly, with pride on his face.

What they referred to as ’still around’ did not mean deceased. Despite the overwhelming power of the Divine Martial Sect’s Patriarch, he is in his prime with a prolonged lifespan. Others mean whether he has left the Sixth Region.

After all, the Inland claims that this Patriarch left the Sixth Region long ago.

Hearing this news, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

In that case, the South Territory wouldn’t be without any chances at all.

Swoosh!

Ye Luo exhaled a breath of turbid air, then stood up, stretching his body slightly, and immediately there was a sound like popping beans from his bones.

At this moment, Nuonuo also opened her eyes.

"Master, can you stop making such loud noises, it distracts me from cultivating!"

Ye Luo glanced at her, "You’ve already reached your limit, even if I continue cultivating, you wouldn’t be able to persist any longer!"

Nuonuo immediately jumped up with a smile, "Master, you’re annoying, can’t you stop being so honest!"

At this moment, her body had also recovered, as fair and clean as before, but with an added sense of agility, giving her an ethereal quality.

Then, Ye Luo took her towards the Demon Beast Ridge.

Although the Great Saint Physique emphasizes self-masochism, it’s also crucial to consider the method and adapt to the body’s recovery cycle.

Otherwise, continuous self-masochism would not only offer no improvement in physical strength but would instead result in unnecessary suffering.

Of course, Nuonuo’s previous state was different as she had been constantly refining the Elixirs Ye Luo gave her.

But now that the power of the Elixirs had been absorbed and the Dragon Blood essence refined, her body entered a recovery phase!

Looking for punishment again during this period would not have much effect on the body.

As they approached the Demon Beast Ridge area, they heard deafening shouts.

After all, the South Territory severely affected the cultivators’ vision, and without activating the Clairvoyant Eye, even Ye Luo would be the same.

Therefore, they walked a little closer, and only then saw the scene ahead!

A large arena had been erected, and there were two young men fighting on it.

Ye Luo was a bit surprised. Wasn’t this place supposed to capture Demon Beasts? How did they end up fighting?

"Hey, are you two looking for trouble standing in the wrong place, don’t you know?"

As Ye Luo and Nuonuo were puzzled, suddenly a grumbling voice sounded right next to them.

Ye Luo turned his head and saw a disciple from an Inland force shouting at the two of them.

Ye Luo was a bit confused; this was a peripheral area! It wasn’t territory divided by any force.

"Master, look ahead!" Nuonuo whispered.

Only then did Ye Luo realize that it seemed like a conflict had occurred between the Inland disciples and the South Territory disciples, and they seemed to be in a standoff, standing in the Inland disciples’ camp!

More importantly, they were dressed in tribal attire, completely in the South Territory fashion!

"What are you two doing, hurry over here, or are you planning to defect?" shouted a middle-aged man from the opposite side.

Only then did Ye Luo and Nuonuo walk over.

"Don’t run around again, or don’t blame me for being rude!" said the middle-aged man.

Ye Luo’s eyebrows twitched slightly. If it weren’t for the special circumstances, Ye Luo would have long punched him.

Joking, merely a cultivator at the Fifth Level of the Earth Martial Realm, daring to shout at him like this.
