The Barren State was boundless . In the north was the Demon City that was at the border of the Demon World . The Demon God race and Taixuan Mountain loomed there . White Cloud City guarded the west, pressing down on the boundless land . There was also Inferno City near Fire Mountain that occupied a lot of land .
The south had an endless snowy terrain . There was a temple there with two gusts of power . The snow area and Fire Mountain formed a strange territory . The center was the renowned Alchemy City . Of course, Zhongzhou City was still the richest . This place loomed over the center of the Barren State . Strong cultivators were everywhere there .
Yunyue City in the east of the Barren State wasn't the main city there, but it had an ancient history and was magnificent .
Right now, a Black Wind Eagle flew in the sky above Yunyue City . Its eyes were very sharp . It was an eagle, but when it flew, it felt like a roc . It was that fast . There were four youths on its back . The one at the front was handsome and he looked forward . Beside him was a muscular youth . He was resting with his eyes closed . The one-armed handsome youth behind them had two ancient swords crossed behind his back . There was also a veiled girl . She had long silver hair that fell down like a waterfall . Her eyes shone with silver light, beautiful yet demonic . They were cold .
This was Ye Futian's group, coming to the Barren State from the Eastern Barren Territory . They paused at times along the way . Mooncloud City was one of the bigger cities . Its liveliness was comparable to the Qin Imperial City in the center of the Eastern Barren Territory .
"That should be Crescent Lake . " Loulan Xue stood up . Wind blew against her as she pointed at a crescent moon-shaped lake . She held a map that she'd bartered for after entering the city .
"It should be White Jade Tower before Crescent Lake . " Looking forward from the lake, one could make out a palace-shaped building . The Black Wind Eagle sped up and it became clearer .
It was a palace-shaped inn—one of the three biggest inns in Yunyue City . It was entirely white and seemed to be made from jade, hence the name . It was as magnificent as a royal palace .
As they got closer, the Black Wind Eagle rushed downward and landed on the steps of White Jade Tower . Ye Futian felt Spiritual Qi hit him . This meant that White Jade Tower was made from spiritual stone . It contained a matrix inside . Living in it, they would feel powerful Spiritual Qi . It was beneficial to cultivation .
Looking up, Ye Futian walked up the steps and stopped outside the main hall . Loulan Xue and Yu Sheng held the spiritual stone and walked in . They were going to spend a few days here, so they chose somewhere like White Jade Tower . It would be easier to get information . They also needed a map of the Barren State . They couldn't get it in a smaller place .
Many people walked up and down the steps .
"Sir, are you a foreigner?" a thin youth in a blue robe asked Ye Futian .
"Yes . " Ye Futian smiled and nodded .
"I am Yang Ting," the other greeted .
"Ye Futian . "
"Brother Ye, are you here for the battle between the four clans?" Yang Ting asked .
"No . " Ye Futian shook his head . He'd just arrived and didn't know anything about the four clans .
"Most people who come to Yunyue City are here for that reason . I misunderstood . " Yang Ting put his hands together in apology .
"No problem . I just arrived and am new to Yunyue City . Please help me in the future," Ye Futian said politely .
"You flatter me . We can help each other," Yang Ting said, smiling .
"Brother, it's done," a voice said . A pretty figure walked out . She had a ponytail and looked young, clean, and pure .
"This is my sister, Yang Yi," Yang Ting introduced . "This is Brother Ye . "
Ye Futian and Yang Yi nodded at each other . Yang Yi stared at Ye Futian with her pure eyes, thinking that Ye Futian was really attractive .
As Ye Futian matured, his temperament kept changing . His features became more handsome too . He was very attractive now .
"What are you looking at me for?" Ye Futian asked, smiling gently .
Yang Yi realized that she'd spaced out . Blushing, she averted her eyes quickly .
"Brother Ye is handsome, but you don't have to do that," Yang Ting also joked .
Yang Yi kicked him and whined, "What are you saying? I'm just curious . "
At this time, the ground below them shook . Ye Futian looked and saw a figure land on the white jade steps . The person was tall and extremely burly . His upper body was bare . The silver armor only covered his most important part . His eyes were like bronze bells, filled with authority as he scanned them . He climbed the steps and walked through Ye Futian's group .
"What beast is that?" Yang Yi was looking up . She saw a fiery-red knight with a mount come . The beast was a dark bird .
The knight was a woman clad in fiery-red clothing . Her curvy body formed a beautiful picture with a different kind of attractiveness . The woman's manliness was beautiful and cold .
"Blue Phoenix," Yang Ting said .
The woman's Blue Phoenix landed . She also walked past Ye Futian without even looking . However, her Blue Phoenix glanced at the Black Wind Eagle and cawed .
The Black Wind Eagle had been silent . After the Blue Phoenix cawed, its eyes sharpened instantly . It shot a gaze at the phoenix . One could see darkness flowing through its eyes .
The Blue Phoenix wouldn't stop . The knight frowned and glared at it, wondering why it was bullying an eagle . After glancing at the Black Wind Eagle, the Blue Phoenix entered the hall with the knight . The Black Wind Eagle glanced at it arrogantly and closed its eyes to rest .
At this time, Yu Sheng and Loulan Xue walked over . "Brother Yang," Ye Futian said, "I'm ready . "
The Yang siblings looked at Yu Sheng and Loulan Xue . This group all had great temperaments . Loulan Xue had her face veiled, but judging from her body, she wouldn't be ugly .
"Come, let's go together," Yang Ting said, smiling . Ye Futian nodded . The two walked to the side and climbed the steps . They found their own floor and courtyard . Coincidentally, they were neighbors .
After entering the courtyard, they found that the entrance was in the backyard . After a hallway was the front courtyard . They could see Crescent Lake and the people arriving at the inn .
"The Eastern Barren Territory should be in that direction," Ye Futian murmured, looking into the distance . Now, he had already stepped foot inside the Barren State . He was extremely far away from the Eastern Barren Territory . It would take months to cross that distance . Now, he would truly be in the outside world, far from his home .
Loulan Xue stood beside him and said softly, "I asked around in the hall earlier . The map isn't easy to get . The Barren State is too big . Even many people in this city haven't gone out of the eastern region, let alone the entire Barren State . "
Ye Futian nodded lightly . "You've worked hard . Our future is unknown . I hope you won't regret this . " He'd warned Loulan Xue, but she had insisted on coming .
"This is my duty as a servant," Loulan Xue replied softly . "As for regret, this is my own decision . "
"Is Brother Ye here?" a voice came from the other courtyard .
"Yes, Brother Yang . Come over," Ye Futian said .
"Okay . " A laugh sounded and then two figures came from the sky .
"The view is quite nice here," Yang Ting said, laughing . "But it's truly expensive . "
"Brother Yang, I have a question to ask . I came here to challenge myself and I wish to travel the entire Barren State . Is there anywhere I can get a basic map?" Ye Futian asked .
"The entire Barren State?" Yang Ting's eyes flashed in shock . It wasn't realistic to travel the entire Barren State at Ye Futian's age unless he improved his cultivation as he traveled . Many people did this though, so he didn't find it too strange .
"Yes . " Ye Futian nodded .
"This type of map is rarely used . I don't know where to find it, but the top four forces of Yunyue City will have them," Yang Ting said .
"Which four forces? How are their abilities?" Ye Futian asked .
"Yunyue City has the Feng Family, Wang Family, Thunder Clan, and Yunyue Merchant Union," Yang Ting said . "They form the uppermost level in Yunyue City . All have people in the Noble Plane . "
Ye Futian nodded . This was only Yunyue City . How powerful would the main cities be?
"Brother Yang, are you from this city?" Ye Futian asked .
"Yes . "
"Then why are you living here?" Ye Futian was curious .
"Brother Ye, how about we get a drink? We can chat while walking," Yang Ting said .
"Okay . " Ye Futian nodded . The group left the courtyard and walked towards the wine house at the top level .
"The top four forces control most of the resources in the city . They hold a battle at the end of every year to decide the distribution of the resources . To be fair, they don't use the Noble Plane . Thus, all those who fight are in the Arcana Plane . Because there are injuries and casualties and the forces use it to attract more talents, it became a custom . Every year, this event is when they choose talents to fight for them . Those who perform well can join them .
"The White Jade Tower belongs to the Yunyue Merchant Union . Every year, they would invite others here . That's why I asked if Brother Ye came for that reason . "
As Yang Ting explained, they arrived at the open-ceiling wine house . Many people were there; it was very busy .
"So you wish to join the Yunyue Merchant Union?" Ye Futian asked .
"They are a force in the chamber of commerce . They have the most resources and are the most generous," Yang Ting said, eyes sparkling .
Ye Futian nodded . After coming to the Barren State, he discovered that they would often use cultivation resources . For example, spiritual stones were common here and used as currency .
"Brother Ye, are you interested?" Yang Ting asked after they found somewhere to sit .
"No . " Ye Futian shook his head, laughing . He'd come to the Barren State to cultivate . He wasn't going to join a force!
