With the help of the fire G.o.ddess, we will go to the netherworld region and if a possible recruit anyone to the team if they proved their worth. We then decided to take a break, since we were moving for around 5 hours. I then looked at Duan and Chen and asked them, "So how do you feel about the adventure? This is your first time outside the glory city for a long time.".

Chen answered, "I am happy. This is a turning point for us in cultivation. New places, new stages of cultivation and new faces and new races to see. After seeing Duan Jian, I wanted to meet more people from more species. Explore more ruins to learn the history of cultivation. This is like a never-ending adventure for me. Thank you for giving me a chance.".

Duan Jian looked at me and said, "You freed me from the clutches of Silver-winged family and you gave me a second life. My life is yours to use. I will follow you to the end of the world.". I just sighed. One is adventurous and one is loyal. This team will be unique. I don't even want to ask Ning'er since I already knew her answer.

We were travelling for three days to heavenly fate plateau. During this period we were able to meet many demon beasts and were able to hone the skills of those two. Chen was specialised in bo staff, and Duan was in sword arts. From morning to evening aside from moving they will fight the demon beasts to test their skills.

After three days, they were able to reach the Heavenly fate plateau. It looked like small human settlements with small fences to guard against the demon beasts. The buildings were primitive, and the clothes were somewhat out of fas.h.i.+on. When I used my observation, I found that none of them was demon spiritualist. They were fighter cla.s.s with the legend rank fighter as chief.

We slowly walked towards the heavenly fate plateau. It was a natural stronghold with one way in and out where even the demon beasts will have difficulty to reach. And also it has a natural defence of Black spring, which is poisonous in nature and where the fire G.o.ddess resides. And also as the name depicts, the heavenly fate plateau is a high terrain region. These natural obstacles made the place much safer. The only problem is that the food deficiency. This is what they made the life of the people in misery.

Many people started to notice the four people. Ye Yan was in scouting for netherworld.region. Many were whispering about them. One girl asked the other, "Where do these people come from. Are they from a n.o.ble family?". I just chuckled at their antics.

We then looked at the shops and evaluated the lifestyle of these people. The transaction currency is normally food. Any form of food is used as currency. Nie li used the food to gain purple smoke rock, but for us, it would be a waste. Instead, I could use it to attract the village chief and strike a deal with them. The more the merrier for the glory city and it would be a win-win situation for both of us.

We went to a confer shop and looked around. I was able to identify the gold hair man same as depicted in the novel. Then this shop is the place where Nie li met Yun Ling. I looked around the menu and asked for 4 wood-powder congee. After placing the order, she looked at us. Her eyes contained a curious glint. She then asked, "Are you from this region?"

I just shaped my head indicating a no sign. Her curiosity got to the next level. She just sat next to us and asked, "Where are you sure from? Are you from the outside region? Are there still humans present in those regions?". At the end of her questions, many started to look at us. They were some people who had a mocking expression, but I don't care about that.

I looked at her and said, "We are from a city called the glory city. It is one of the humanity last stronghold against the demon hordes. And yes there are still humans living under the city with safety. We are here to enter deep into St. ancestral mountain.". Many were shaken at the thought of it. There were people still exist in the outside world and they are entering into the St. Ancestral mountain. There was quite a commotion for a while.

Suddenly a voice boomed, "Who are you outsider? What are you doing in this place? Are you an enemy?". Many started to whisper, " Is that young master Xiao Kuang? Why is he here?". I then thought 'so this must be Xiao Kuang. The work became easy now'.

I looked at him and said, "My name is Long Tian and we are from the glory city. The glory city is one of the humanity last standing fort against glory city. We have withstood demon beast horde and stood victorious. Our city population is around millions and we are demon spiritualist. We have two legend ranks with tens of black gold obsidian rank and hundreds of bronze rank. We are here to venture deep into the St. Ancestral mountain to visit black spring. We are fortunate to meet fellow human settlement in this region. Our food production is so high we dump millions of demon beast flesh a year. If you don't believe me then I can show you this.". Saying this, he merged with his demon spirit and showed his true rank.

Xiao Kuang was now sweating buckets. He nearly offended a legend rank demon spiritualist. Others were now in awe and reverence. I then asked him, "You can send one of your companions to check the credibility. You can reach the gates of glory city and show this letter. It would hurt to do this. So what do you say?". Others were waiting for Xiao Kuang's answer. He contemplated for a while and said."...
