After learning more about the Holy Ranking from Long Yang, Xiao Chen felt a sense of yearning towards the Chosen on the Holy Ranking.
Putting everything else aside, just the fact that he was protected by the Will of the Heavenly Dao was already heaven-defying enough.
The Chosen on the Holy Ranking could only fight against people of the same generation. Experts of the older generation could not fight against the Chosen on the Holy Ranking. Moreover, this was the rule of the Will Of The Heavenly Way. There was no need to think about hiding anything from the Will Of The Heavenly Way.
Unlike living beings, did the Will Of The Heavenly Way have a life? It did not seem to have a physical existence. However, such a mysterious existence controlled everything in this world. Or rather, it coexisted with this world.
Therefore, in this world, there was no need to think about hiding anything from the Will Of The Heavenly Way. It was also because of this that no one dared to violate the rules of the Holy Ranking. After all, The Great Sage had used his life to prove this point.
The Will Of The Heavenly Way and this world coexisted. Neither of them could leave the other. If the Will Of The Heavenly Way disappeared, this world would not be far from destruction. At the very least, the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth would quickly dry up and no one would be able to set foot on the Martial Way.
After learning the answer from Long Yang, Xiao Chen was no longer worried about Long Yang and Feng Jue going to the Human Race's territory. After all, with the rules of the Holy Ranking, the experts of the older generation of the Human Race would not dare to make a move. As for the younger generation, no one in the Human Race was a match for Long Yang.
After chatting casually in the inn for a while, the four of them returned to their rooms one after another. Xiao Chen naturally shared a room with Tian Yue. Long Yang originally intended to have a room for himself, but Feng Jue refused to comply. In the end, Long Yang and Feng Jue also booked a room.
After Xiao Chen's persuasion, Feng Jue seemed to have thought it through. He treated Long Yang with extreme gentleness. However, Long Yang couldn't adapt to such gentleness. It was simply torture for him.
However, Feng Jue's method was perfect. At least Long Yang didn't have any way to break it. He couldn't just beat Feng Jue away.
They did not bother about Long Yang and Feng Jue. After a night of cultivation, the four of them woke up early the next morning. After washing up, they left Delight City and headed for the Human Race's territory.
Because Delight City was already at the border of the human territory and there was no teleportation formation that led to the human territory, Xiao Chen's group of four could only rely on flying to travel.
However, the four of them were not in a hurry. They would be able to reach the human territory in less than a day.
Along the way, they didn't rest much. In the afternoon, Xiao Chen's group of four arrived at a wide river. According to Long Yang, this river was the dividing line between the Beast Race and the human territory. It was called the Heavenly Chen River.
The Heavenly Chen River cut across the entire border between the human and beast races. The human and beast races' territories were also divided by the Heavenly Chen River. The southern bank was the Beast Ancestor's territory, while the northern bank was the human territory.
On the Heavenly Chen River, there were many experts from both races guarding it. They formed many strongholds, and when these strongholds were connected together, they formed a solid line of defense.
It could be said that both the human and beast races had set up a heavy defense on both sides of the Heavenly Chen River. The three main races of the beast race and the human race had sent many experts to guard the area.
Of course, compared to the human and ghost races' territories, the two sides of the Heavenly Chen River were relatively peaceful. After all, the relationship between the human and beast races was not as tense as the ghost race.
The border between the ghost race and the human race had gathered many of the top battle prowess from both races. The defensive force there was at least five times that of the Heavenly Chen River.
The human race and ghost race could go to war at any time, especially now that the War of the Hundred Races was approaching. As a result, the relationship between the two races became even more tense.
As for the beast race and the human race, they were mostly on guard. As a result, the Heavenly Chen River was relatively peaceful.
They came to a crossing on the Heavenly Chen River. There were many such crossings on the Heavenly Chen River, and they were there for the convenience of travel between the two races.
Of course, passing through the crossings was not something that could be agreed upon. This was because regardless of whether one was from the human race to the beast race or vice versa, they had to go through the checks of both races. Only after going through the checks could they successfully enter one of the territories.
Xiao Chen and the other three naturally had to go through the checks of the beast race. However, due to the presence of Long Yang and Feng Jue, the experts of the beast race did not dare to make things difficult for them and directly chose to let them pass.
On the entire Heavenly Chen River, almost 80% of the places were set up with Forbidden Flight Formations. Therefore, if one wanted to rely on strength to cross the Heavenly Chen River, one would either have to find those extremely dangerous places, but the danger was too high, or have the strength of the Quasi-saint Realm and forcefully break through the Forbidden Flight Formations to cross.
However, these two methods were not the best choice. The best choice was naturally to find a crossing.
Every few hundred miles, there would be a ferry. However, the only problem with crossing the river through the ferry was that they would have to be interrogated by the two clans.
Speaking of the Heavenly Chen River's crossings, it was actually very simple. There were no boats or bridges. To put it bluntly, it was an area between Flight Prohibiting Formations. Hence, it was called a crossing.
As there were no Flight Prohibiting Formations here, cultivators could naturally fly across without any worries. However, there were strongholds of the two races on both sides of the river. One was for defense, and the other was for checking those who crossed the river.
After successfully passing through the checks of the beast race, the expert of the beast race in charge of this stronghold personally escorted the group to the riverside after learning of Long Yang and Feng Jue's identity.
The expert of the beast race reminded Long Yang and Feng Jue with a fawning smile on his face as he looked at them.
"Young Master Long Yang, Princess Feng Jue, the defenses on the other side of the river have just changed two days ago. It is said that the person in charge of this stronghold is an elder of the Heavenly Yin Sun Sect. This person doesn't seem to have a good impression of the beast race. Young Master and Princess should be more careful."
The expert of the beast race took the initiative to remind them. Hearing this, Long Yang smiled slightly and said, "It's fine. Brother Xiao Chen will take care of the human race. Isn't that right, Brother Xiao Chen? It's your territory now. You have to protect us. "
Long Yang was clearly joking. However, hearing this, Xiao Chen still rolled his eyes and said in annoyance, "Forget it. I can't even protect myself when crossing the river. You know that I'm not from the Central World. I don't have an illustrious identity like yours. So if you want me to protect you, forget it."
