I am the villain in the book

As mentioned before, the northernmost part of Da Ning is Liang Province, north of Liang Province is Tian Mountain, north of Tian Mountain is Ji Kingdom, and further north of Ji Kingdom is Da Jue.

The north-south span from Da Ning to Da Jue is nearly 20,000 miles, which in my previous life would have been roughly half the Earth's circumference.

However, in this world, such a distance is not considered exaggerated.

Whether it's Da Ning or Da Jue, they are generally located in the southeastern region of the world. Even though they are not small countries, they are only considered to be of medium size among the hundreds of countries that exist in the world.

And since there are already so many human dynasties, it is natural that the demon race, as an important part of this world, cannot only be huddled in the Ten Thousand Mountains.

Their main gathering places are called "Demon Lands", and there are fourteen of them in the world.

The Ten Thousand Mountains is considered one, ranking ninth among the fourteen Demon Lands.

East of Da Jue is an ice field, which is also one, ranking seventh.

It is not known what the ranking of the fourteen Demon Lands is based on, but it is likely related to the strength of the demon races gathered in the Demon Lands.

And the mysterious black hole hidden in the Mountain God Temple is connected to the "Seventh Demon Land" located in Da Jue.

“.”

The above is the main content of the information sent back by Xu Sui Sui.

Although there is no content about the "Fourteen Demon Lands" in "Martial Arts Great Pinnacle", Wei Changtian doesn't doubt the authenticity of this information.

On one hand, Xu Sui Sui has no need to deceive him.

On the other hand, he has already verified the truth of the matter with Qing Xian.

In Qing Xian's reply, she not only confirmed the existence of the Fourteen Demon Lands, but also affirmed that a large number of demon races do live in the far eastern snowfields of Da Jue.

However, Qing Xian did not know about the mysterious black hole, nor did she know more about the "Seventh Demon Land".

In other words, although she is the Demon King of the Ten Thousand Mountains, there is an "information barrier" between her and the other Demon Lands, and they don't know much about each other.

This is not difficult to understand.

After all, the world is too big, and even human dynasties have almost no contact with each other if they are a little far apart, let alone the Demon Lands led by the demon race.

Everyone lives their own lives and doesn't interact with each other, which is normal.

Just like Da Jue and Da Ning.

If Da Jue hadn't suddenly launched an invasion to take advantage of the situation, the number of spies Da Ning sent to Da Jue in the next hundred years might not have been as many as in the past month.

And another example is Wei Changtian.

If Yang Liu Shi hadn't entered that mysterious black hole, perhaps he wouldn't have known about the existence of the "Fourteen Demon Lands" until his death.

From this perspective, although this world is big, the "cultivation level" has not reached the height to match such a world structure, which makes the connection between various places in the world very weak.

Even a master like Lao Zhangtou spent more than ten years traveling all the way from Bai Dian in the far north of the world to Da Ning.

What about ordinary people?

Maybe they won't be able to get there in their lifetime.

The world is too big, the speed is too slow, and the flow of information is naturally extremely slow, so everyone's vision is mostly limited to a small area.

After all, forces like Kui Long, which can spread twenty-two branch halls all over the world, are rare.

And if you want to universally break through this restriction...

Then perhaps the cultivators of this world need to break through the shackles of the first rank first, or even open the door to "becoming an immortal".

Three days later.

Wangnan Peak, Mountain God Temple.

Compared with a few days ago, the Mountain God Temple is no longer deserted. Inside and outside, there are soldiers in white armor patrolling, and the main hall is heavily guarded, strictly prohibiting anyone from entering.

At noon, a figure appeared from the distant rolling snow-capped mountains and headed straight for the Mountain God Temple under the gaze of everyone.

The sunlight was dazzling, mixed with flying snow falling on him, making him look very lonely in the vast expanse of white.

Soon, the patrolling soldiers saw the face of the person who came.

They were all slightly stunned, and then someone immediately ran into the temple to report the news.

"General!"

"Young Master Wei is back!"

“.”

The moment he stood in the cave, Wei Changtian saw the dark and mysterious hole.

“.”

Squinting his eyes, he walked closer and stared at it silently for a long time before asking softly:

"Uncle Liang, have you interrogated the wealthy families who repaired the temple?"

"I have interrogated them."

Liang Zhen nodded, signaling the accompanying guards to retreat, and then replied truthfully:

"This temple was built fifty years ago, and the Snow God statue was also cast at that time."

"Although it has been repaired several times later, it has never been recast."

"The heads of those wealthy families who repaired the temple at that time are now dead, and their descendants all said that they had never heard them mention this hole."

"I sent people to search their mansions, but I didn't find any clues."

Soon, Liang Zhen finished telling the results of the interrogation.

To put it bluntly, this hole had not been seen when the temple was built fifty years ago, and the people who repaired the temple did not set up any mechanisms on the Snow God statue.

"Is it credible?"

Wei Changtian turned his head and asked, "Did you use torture?"

"No torture was used."

Liang Zhen shook his head: "But Miss Li personally interrogated them, so it should be true."

"Li Zimu interrogated them?"

Wei Changtian was stunned at first, then nodded slightly.

"Okay, I understand."

“.”

Dozens of torches were burning fiercely, illuminating the entire cave extremely brightly.

However, the hole was still dark and gloomy, as if it were a black hole that even light could not escape.

Staring at the hole, Wei Changtian frowned slightly, and his expression became more and more solemn.

Since Li Zimu interrogated them, the results should be correct.

Therefore, this hole appeared after the Mountain God Temple was built, and the mechanism of the statue was also set up later.

And if these things were not done by those wealthy families, then they could only have been done by the people "over there".

"Uncle Liang."

Suddenly, Wei Changtian turned his head and asked, "How many corpses are there in the cave?"

"A total of one hundred and eighty-two."

Liang Zhen had obviously sent someone to count them a long time ago, and immediately replied: "One hundred and thirty demon bones and fifty-two human bones."

"One hundred and eighty..."

Wei Changtian's pupils shrank, and after a long while, he lowered his voice and continued:

"Uncle Liang, I have figured out the origin of this cave."

"This is a teleportation array that connects to a snowfield east of Da Jue."

“.”

In a few words, Wei Changtian told the information he got from Xu Sui Sui.

Liang Zhen was naturally extremely shocked after hearing this, but before he could think about it carefully, Wei Changtian's next words made his hair stand on end in an instant.

"Uncle Liang, Xu Sui Sui also said that this formation is not very stable, and there will be an accident about once every hundred times. Whether it is a human or a demon, they will die within a few breaths after the end of the teleportation."

"These corpses must have died here because of accidents."

"And since there are one hundred and eighty corpses, then..."

After a pause, Wei Changtian turned his gaze to the pile of neatly stacked bones in the corner.

"Uncle Liang."

"This means that in the past fifty years, nearly twenty thousand humans and demons have come to Liang Province from Da Jue through this formation."
