Sword Emperor of the Astonishing Sky

Several warriors of the Xuanjing Clan led Lin Bai and Wen Lao towards the clan mountain range.

"We're here. This is our clan land, the Xuanjing Mountains."

Lin Bai had learned about the naming method of the warriors in the Northern Territory when he was in the Eastern Territory.

In order to avoid the wind and snow that never dissipates all year round, most warriors in the Northern Territory will choose a mountain or a river as a place to rest and recuperate.

Therefore, the names of their tribes and clans are mostly based on the names of mountains.

This mountain range is called the Xuanjing Mountains, and the warriors living in it are naturally called the Xuanjing Clan.

The so-called clan is an organization gathered by countless warriors. They come from different families and different bloodlines, but in order to resist the wind and snow in the Northern Territory, they unite like relatives, warm each other, and move forward together.

This is the first time that Lin Bai has seen the living conditions of the Northern Territory clan. After taking a look, he couldn't help but feel a little scared.

Above the Xuanjing Mountains, there is a layer of magic array carefully arranged by the clan to block the wind and snow.

There are countless buildings inside and outside the entire mountain range, most of which are built of stone, and only a few are wooden houses.

Even the wooden houses are rusty, and have already turned black due to corrosion, and even emit the stench of rotting wood.

In these stone and wood buildings, in the dim streets, you can vaguely see signs of many warriors' activities.

"This is simply a refugee camp." After taking a glance, Elder Wen whispered to Lin Bai in silence.

Even the worst, most dangerous, and most uninhabited city in the East Region is not as desolate as the Xuanjing Clan.

Compared with the luxury of the East Region, the Xuanjing Clan is equivalent to an extremely large refugee camp.

The leader saw that Lin Bai and Wen Lao had become serious and looked a little unhappy, so he smiled and said:

"Both brothers have returned from the East Region. I'm afraid you have long forgotten the situation in the North Region?"

"The North Region is like this."

"Our Xuanjing Clan is a small clan and does not have many resources. Please forgive me."

Wen Lao and Lin Bai nodded calmly and followed the leader to continue walking forward, gradually going deeper into the Xuanjing Mountains.

Walking into the block, the road was extremely narrow, with low houses on both sides. The mud and snow underfoot were particularly muddy.

Some of the low houses on both sides were the residences of the warriors of the North Region, and some were hung with words of shops, selling all kinds of survival supplies needed by the North Region.

Although the Xuanjing Mountains looked extremely large, if there were tens of millions of warriors living in it, it would be particularly crowded and narrow.

For example, the street that Lin Bai and Wen Lao were currently crossing was not an exaggeration to describe it as overcrowded.

People passed by each other, and men and women lived together.

Most of the warriors in the Northern Territory were dressed in simple clothes. Women wore coarse linen clothes, while most men wore animal skins with their upper bodies showing muscles.

Warriors like Lin Bai and Wen Lao, who came in brocade clothes, undoubtedly became the outliers here.

Every warrior turned his head curiously, looking up and down at the two strangers Lin Bai and Wen Lao with curious eyes.

"What a handsome boy."

"Really handsome, it would be great if you could be my husband."

"Young man, are you married?"

The style of the Northern Territory is fierce, and the women are more open. When they meet a man who catches their eye on the street, they will take the initiative to come forward and chat with him.

Wen Lao looks like an old man. Although he is dressed gorgeously, he is no longer within the scope of courtship of these Northern Territory women.

On the other hand, Lin Bai is not very old, but in his prime, and he is dressed luxuriously and has an extraordinary demeanor.

Along the way, I don't know how many women in the Northern Territory flirted with him, and some of them were even bold enough to come forward and ask Lin Bai if he was married, if he had an engagement, etc.

Lin Bai hurriedly shook his head, and his pace could not help but speed up a lot, just wanting to leave this area as soon as possible.

"Where are we going now?"

The leading commander said: "Don't you want to borrow the teleportation array of our Xuanjing Mountain Range?"

"I will take you to the location of the teleportation array now."

"The situation in the Eastern Territory and the Northern Territory is not good now, and the Xuanjing Clan is unwilling to leave a few strangers in the clan, so you need to leave as soon as possible."

This is exactly what Lin Bai wants. If he can borrow the teleportation array to leave as soon as possible, it would be the best.

After passing through several narrow, crowded and smelly streets, a square of medium size suddenly appeared in front of him.

At this moment, there are many warriors coming in and out of the square.

"The teleportation array is here."

Lin Bai looked forward. Compared with the scale of the Eastern Territory, the teleportation array square in the Northern Territory is pitifully small.

Any city in the East Region that has built a teleportation array can at least accommodate tens of thousands of people waiting in the square.

But the teleportation array square of the Xuanjing Clan is less than a kilometer and is built against a mountain.

At the foot of the mountain, there are several caves. Now the warriors queuing in the square are walking into those caves one by one.

"The teleportation array is inside the cave entrance. You go and line up to teleport away from the Xuanjing Clan."

"Our Xuanjing Clan has a total of nine teleportation arrays, which teleport to different clans."

"Counting from left to right, the teleportation locations are the Black Flame Clan, the Qiongshan Clan..."

The commander gave Lin Bai and Old Wen a detailed introduction: "The teleportation array of the Xuanjing Clan costs about half a fairy jade each time."

Hiss... Lin Bai couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard this. The fee paid by the teleportation array in the Northern Territory was actually fairy jade.

Although it was half a fairy jade, it was indeed paid in fairy jade.

"Of course."

"If you don't have fairy jade, you can also pay something equivalent to half a fairy jade in exchange."

The commander reminded him.

Lin Bai's eyes turned and he frowned in thought.

The Xuanjing Clan was covered with snow and wind, and it was a deserted and uninhabited forbidden area for living creatures.

Warriors with cultivation below the Taiyi Daoguo realm had no way to go on long-distance exploration and travel in the wind and snow.

There was no way to cross the wind and snow directly to go to other clans.

Then the only way they could leave was these teleportation arrays.

But every time the teleportation array was used, fairy jade was used as currency to pay. Not to mention low-level warriors, even warriors at the Taiyi Daoguo realm felt painful.

In this way, the Xuanjing Clan trapped the low-level warriors to death in the Xuanjing Clan in this way, as a capital for the Xuanjing Clan to reproduce and survive.

Some low-level warriors may even have lived for hundreds or thousands of years without leaving the clan.

"Ah."

After Lin Bai roughly understood the operation mode of the Northern Territory Clan, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

In order to survive, the warriors of the Northern Territory did everything they could.

High-level warriors can shuttle between the top clans, while low-level warriors can only stay in the clan forever as a tool for the clan to reproduce and survive.

In simple terms... it is to give birth to children to ensure that the clan has enough warriors born.
