Yang Ling gained a deeper understanding of the various large dimensions under the explanation of the Cutting Edge Warrior Richardson.

As it turned out, the so-called wanderers were rather similar to the adventurers in the Tailun Continent. They explored all over the dimension, hoping to gain knowledge and achieve a breakthrough in their training through the hardships. In some sense, they were also like moving troops, getting missions with generous rewards from time to time.

“Yang Ling, if you are going to train at the other dimensions, it’s best that you register yourself at the Wandering Castle. This way, it’ll become incredibly convenient for you to replenish your supplies at the Wandering Castles in the various lands, as well as rapidly obtain any information.” Richardson paused for a moment, then continued, “The areas of the various large dimensions, especially the Chaos Dimension, are large beyond imagination. You will encounter unimaginable difficulties if you are to wander the dimensions alone!”

“Alright, thank you for your advice. If there are no accidents, I’ll go have a look around the various dimensions half a year later!” Yang Ling smiled and took out a vat of wine that had been steeping in the blood sac of a Bloodsucking Vine from the Wizard Pagoda’s Space, treating the many wanderers to a cup.

Over this period of time, the Bloodsucking Vines have also made the Wizard Pagoda’s Space their home, just like the various Magical Beasts had done, forming a large base of Bloodsucking Vines in a primordial forest near the sea. With the efforts of the many winemakers, they had managed to create a substantial amount of Blood Sac Wine using the blood sacs of the vines. The wine was fragrant and had considerable effects on training. It was finally ready to be consumed after being stored in the underground cellar in the Wizard Pagoda’s Space for some time.

Red wine?

Richardson fetched over the cup of wine Yang Ling handed him, gently taking a sip of the pale red Blood Sac Wine.

A strawberry-like sweetness washed over his taste buds, followed by the acidity of a lemon and a faint bitterness. Slowly, a refreshing sensation spread out from the tip of his tongue, toward his nose. It was as if he had just swallowed a blooming Purple Fragrant Lily. What was even more wonderful was that he not only felt even more energized after drinking the wine, the protective Divine Power in his body also began circulating faster. It seems as though this red wine has several benefits to his training.

It was fragrant and rich, leaving him wanting more!

“Great, great wine!”

After having a few sips, Richardson praised the wine loudly and emptied the Blood Sac Wine in his cup. Having wandered in the dimensions for many years, he had been to many places and tried many premium wines. However, this was the first time he had tried such a wine. The other wanderers also exclaimed loudly, wanting more after their first cup. They poured another cup for themselves and gulped it down. Soon, they had finished the entire vat of Blood Sac Wine.

“Brother Yang Ling, what kind of wine is this, where can we buy this in bulk?” Richardson pat on Yang Ling’s shoulders. After drinking a few cups of wine and speaking their minds, the two of them had gotten on closer terms and soon became close friends.

“This is a wine brewed by my family, called Blood Sac Wine. It is not only rich and fragrant, but it is also quite beneficial in training. Unfortunately, the yearly yield is extremely little.” Seeing that Richardson was an alcoholic just like the Great Commander of the Dark Cavalries, Yang Ling smiled, then continued, “I did not bring much Blood Sac Wine when I came out this time. Why not let me give you two vats first, then help you think of a way to get more when I return to my territory in the Tailun Continent. I’ll see if I can get you a few more vats then!”

Even though he had successfully set up a base of Bloodsucking Vines, collected a substantial amount of blood sacs, and made a good amount of Blood Sac Wine. However, every Bloodsucking Vine only had one blood sac and would not grow another one in ten years after the original one was collected. Thus, the yield for Blood Sac Wine was extremely low, and each vat was very precious. At that moment, there was no way that Yang Ling could give them any more.

“Alright, thank you!” Even though he was a little disappointed, Richardson was already very satisfied that he managed to obtain two vats of that delicious wine. After drinking a few more cups of wine, he started chatting with Yang Ling once again, speaking about the terrors of the Abyssal Crocodiles in the Dimension of Death and the alluring Incubi in the Chaos Dimension, as well as from the powerful Death Blade to the high and mighty King of Darkness in the Dimension of Death…He talked about everything.

After getting on close terms with the wanderers, Yang Ling pretended to have suddenly recalled something, asking in his confusion, “That’s right, Brother Richardson, some time ago, I heard someone speak secretly about a relic of an Ancient Wizard in the Graveyard of Deities and Demons. I wonder if that is true or not?”

Ever since he understood the intention behind the Nine-dragon Divine Ring and realized that there might be a terrifying enemy of the Ancient Wizards, Yang Ling had become even more cautious, afraid that he would accidentally reveal his identity as a Great Soul Wizard and attracting a powerful enemy. Before he possessed absolute advantage and strength, boasting that he was searching for the relics of the Ancient Wizards was undoubtedly a foolish decision!

“Ancient Wizard?” Richardson shook his head, knitting his brows and thinking deeply for a moment before continuing, “I am not too sure if there are relics of the Ancient Wizards in the Graveyard of Deities and Demons or not. However, legend has it that there is a tall Skyreach Tower in the Crouching Dragon Mountain Range in the Chaos Dimension that is said to be a relic left behind by the Ancient Wizards. However, the Crouching Dragon Mountain Range is enveloped by a perpetual fog and has dangers lurking around every corner. It is even more dangerous than the Graveyard of Deities and Demons, and even powerful fighters with abilities at the peak of High-level Deity will have difficulty moving in there. But legends are legends, and no one really knows what exactly is there!”

Skyreach Tower?

There’s also a Skyreach Tower in the Core Chaos Dimension?

Yang Ling’s heart shook, quickly meeting eyes with the Corpse Wizard King. It was rumored that there was also a Skyreach Tower deep in the Death Bone Sea in the Dimension of Death, also a relic left behind by the Ancient Wizards. There are legends of Skyreach Towers in both the Dimension of Death and Chaos Dimension, and they were both related to the Ancient Wizards. This showed that they were not baseless rumors.

“It is rumored that other than the Chaos Dimension, other Core Dimensions like Order, Life and Power also have a Skyreach Tower, but unfortunately, no one knows exactly where they are!” An elder dressed in a black robe walked over as he spoke, sitting down beside Yang Ling as he started speaking about an ancient legend, once again shocking Yang Ling. At that moment, Yang Ling could not understand just what was going on with the Skyreach Towers. He desperately wanted to head to the Dimension of Death or Chaos Dimension to have a look for himself.

“Yang Ling, after this, we will be traversing on Sunset Plains and attempting to infiltrate Moon River. Where will you be going?” Richardson quickly confirmed the next step of his plan after a short discussion with the other wanderers.

“We have merely come here to explore and are not too familiar with the situation in the Graveyard of Deities and Demons. We are still not too sure as to where to go next!” Yang Ling shook his head bitterly, then asked curiously, “That’s right, what kind of the place is the Moon River you talked about. Why is the area of a ten-mile radius around the place sealed by the Abyssal Demons?”

“Moon River is an extremely dangerous place, but it also has a treasure that anyone would want — the Moon Stone. However, more importantly, it is rumored that the Great Black-horned Demon that has been slumbering for a million years in the Moon River is about to awaken. When that time comes, his cave would open. There are many precious divinities from ancient Divine Demons and Divine Weapons in there. Obtaining even one of them would be immensely beneficial.” The black-robed elder was called Wilcox, and he specialized in the Law of Life. Even though his offensive capabilities were not as strong as the Cutting Edge Warrior Richardson, he was extremely knowledgeable. Seeing that Yang Ling was not clear on anything, he slowly started his explanation after letting out a smile.

As it turned out, legend has it that countless Divine Demons had fallen in battle during the Great Battle of Gods and Demons. Amongst them were figures like the leader of the Abyssal Demons and the Great Black-horned Demon. Using the last shred of his Divine Knowledge, the leader of the Abyssal Demons had used a powerful spell to summon a large bunch of Evil Demons from the Abyssal Dimension to protect his body. He had a massive influence, and no one dared to offend him. On the other hand, the soul of the Great Black-horned Demon that had fallen into Moon River had nearly scattered completely. It had managed to avoid harassment using the natural dangers around Moon River, slowly recovering after slumbering for millennia.

After news that the Great Black-horned Demon was about to awaken from his slumber and lord over the Moon River spread out, in order to collect the precious Moon Stones as well as obtain the divinities and Divine Weapons that was rumored to have fallen together with the Great Black-horned Demon, any people had swarmed into the area. They did not expect to be stopped by a large group of Abyssal Demons, with the area around the Moon River being sealed off.

The souls and divinities of an Abyssal Demon were already this powerful, how great would it be if I managed to absorb and fuse with the divinities and souls of ancient Divine Demons?

Yang Ling had a glint in his eyes after understanding what was going on, quickly finding a way to improve his strength rapidly.

According to the explanation of the black-robed elder Wilcox, the so-called Moon Stone harbored a large amount of energy and could greatly boost a person’s Soul Energy in a short amount of time. This item was definitely valuable, and it would be even better if he managed to take advantage of the situation and obtain the divinities and Divine Weapons of the ancient Divine Demons, or perhaps subjugate their souls!

Furthermore, even if they managed to make their way around the Sunset Plains and infiltrate the area, they might still encounter the obstruction of the Abyssal Demons along the way. Even if they were unable to obtain any Moon Stones or divinities and Divine Weapons of the ancient Divine Demons in the end, killing a few Abyssal Demons along the way was also pretty good. He could meld with their divinities and subjugate their souls to boost his abilities quickly!

“Brother Richardson, let’s go. Why not we barge into Moon River together and snatch all of the Moon Stones and treasures of the ancient Divine Demons for ourselves!” Yang Ling smiled, quickly coming to a decision to move together with the wanderers.

“Hahaha, great, with us brothers joining forces, we’ll see if any ignorant Evil Demons would step forward to their deaths!” The Cutting Edge Warrior Richardson was forthright, laughing loudly as he patted down heavily on Yang Ling’s shoulder.

Yang Ling hoped to move together with the wanderers and make use of their strength and experience to avoid any unnecessary trouble. After witnessing the abilities of Yang Ling and the guards around him like Hydra and Butler, Richardson also hoped to receive Yang Ling’s assistance in dealing with the dangers along the way.

They reached an agreement immediately!

Elated, the two parties sat down and started negotiating the next step of the plan, prepared to take action as soon as possible.
