"Master Situ, since only Celestial Kings or those who are stronger can break the barrier Formation and return to the borderlands, it's a little ridiculous and redundant to say the twin Ten Directions Celestial Dukes from the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect are invincible to those weaker than Celestial Kings, right?" Duan Ling Tian said. After getting a good grasp about the situation in the Southern Heaven Territory, he discovered it was redundant to say the two Ten Directions Celestial Dukes were invincible in the borderlands to those who are below Celestial Kings. After all, there were no Celestial Kings in the borderlands at all.

"Indeed, there are many people who think the twin Ten Directions Celestial Dukes are shameless for saying they're invincible to those who are weaker than Celestial Kings." Situ Ming nodded. "After all, there are so many Ten Directions Celestial Dukes in the central area. Many of them cultivated King Grade cultivation methods and mastered King Grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities… Any one of them can easily defeat the two brothers. They know very well that Celestial Kings won't be able to come or return to the borderlands that's why they're shameless enough to say they're invincible to anyone below Celestial Kings in the Southern Heaven Territory."

Situ Ming continued to say, "However, there's no denying the brothers are strong. When they join forces, they're able to defeat the Ten Directions Celestial Dukes from the Blissful Sect and other sects."

Duan Ling Tian nodded. A thought appeared in his mind, and he asked, "Master Situ, the Six Southeastern Regions are located in the borderlands of the Southern Heaven Territory, and the borderlands surround the central area of the Southern Heaven Territory. If we travel inward through the barrier Formation, we'll arrive at the center of the Southern Heaven Territory… Where would it lead to if we travel outward from the borderlands?" He was extremely curious about this.

Instead of Situ Ming, the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect answered Duan Ling Tian's question, "If you travel outward and leave the borderlands, you'll arrive at the Riot Star Sea." His tone turned solemn when he mentioned the Riot Star Sea.

"Riot Star Sea?" Duan Ling Tian was perplexed.

"The Riot Star Sea covers much of the Spirit Overarching Heaven, and one could travel to everywhere in the Spirit Overarching Heaven through the Riot Star Sea. There are many low-intelligence Celestial Beasts there. However, despite their lack of intelligence, they're very strong. Since there are as many Celestial Beasts in the sea as there are stars in the sky, people call it the Riot Star Sea. It's said that to cross the sea or to travel the sea, one has to be as strong as a Celestial Lord at least. Even ordinary Celestial Lords would perish at sea. In the Spirit Overarching Heaven's history, only titled Celestial Lords and Celestial Emperors had successfully crossed the sea unharmed," the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect patiently explained to Duan Ling Tian.

Duan Ling Tian inhaled sharply. Just how terrifying and dangerous was the Riot Star Sea?

"Since the Riot Star Sea surrounds the Southern Heaven Territory, there are only two choices for people in the borderlands. They can either head inward to the center of the Southern Heaven Territory or head outward to the Riot Star Sea!"

Suddenly, another thought appeared in Duan Ling Tian's mind. He looked at the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect and asked, "Old Ancestor, if someone from the Tai Yi Celestial Sect breaks through and becomes a Celestial King… Does that mean the Celestial King can annihilate the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect and the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect before leaving the borderland to the center of the Southern Heaven Territory, leaving the Tai Yi Celestial Sect in charge of the entire Wasteland?"

"Impossible!" The Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect refuted immediately, "There are rules in the Southern Heaven Territory. Once a Ten Directions Celestial Dukes in the borderland breaks through and becomes a Celestial King, they can no longer participate in the disputes in the borderland… Otherwise, they will be executed by a special envoy from the central area! The restriction Formation that blocks the central area and the borderlands is able to monitor a Celestial King and restrict his or her strength. Therefore, those who have just become Celestial Kings don't dare to act recklessly."

Duan Ling Tian inhaled sharply, clearly shocked by the strength of a titled Celestial Lord. Just a Formation set up by a titled Celestial Lord was so strong. Not only must Celestial Kings obediently head to the center of the Southern Heaven Territory after their breakthroughs, but they were also monitored and restricted by the Formation. However, he was unaware that the restrictive Formation was not set up by the titled Celestial Lord, the Formation had existed since the founding of the Spirit Overarching Heaven. All the titled Celestial Lord needed to do was to maintain it at regular intervals. At that time, the Southern Heaven Territory was not called the Southern Heaven Territory yet.

When Duan Ling Tian no longer had any questions to ask, he silently focused on alchemy and cultivating during their journey to the Alchemy Conference. It was no longer useful for him to discuss alchemy with Situ Ming and the others since his alchemy skills had surpassed theirs.

Although the three prominent Celestial Alchemists wanted to discuss alchemy with Duan Ling Tian to improve their skills, they did not want to disturb Duan Ling Tian since he was about to participate in the Alchemy Conference.

On the other hand, since they had left the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, Huan'er had been silently comprehending her Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities. From time to time, an intimidating aura would ripple out from her body.

…

Time flew by quickly. In just a blink of an eye, two months had passed.

Duan Ling Tian and the others arrived at the Barren Land where the Alchemy Conference would be taking place. Although it was said that the Alchemy Conference was jointly organized by the Six Southeastern Regions, it was actually organized by one region. Each time, each region would take turns organizing the conference. This time, it was Barren Land's turn to organize it. To be more precise, it was organized by the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Barren Lands.

The Barren Land was very similar to the Wasteland. The Three Major Celestial Sects of the Barren Lands were located in the center of the ​​Barren Land, and each of the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Barren Lands was based in a bustling city that spanned a large area. However, the Alchemy Conference this time was not held in any of the three major cities. It was going to be held in a city that was located on a plain in the center of the Barren Land.

The city was vast. Although it was not better than three cities occupied by the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Barren Lands, it was not much worse either.

"This city is called Alchemy City. It's where the Alchemy Conference would be held. There is a city like this in the Wasteland and the other four regions as well. Most of the time, these cities are protected by a restrictive Formation and aren't open to the outside world," Situ Ming took the initiative to explain to Duan Ling Tian when they arrived in Alchemy City. After all, among the group of people, Duan Ling Tian and Huan'er were the only ones who had not participated in the Alchemy Conference before.

Situ Ming continued to say, "In Alchemy City, in addition to the estates owned by the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Barren Land, there are also many Celestial Pills and medicinal herb stores specially opened for us… The Three Major Celestial Sects of the Barren Land also provide accommodations for sectless cultivators and small sects. They're also allowed to shop in the stores. Alchemy City is open to the public for three months starting from a month before the start of the Alchemy Conference… During this time, people can come to participate in the Alchemy Conference and buy rare and precious medicinal herbs and Celestial Pills. There are also many who come just to join in the excitement."

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian saw large groups of people entering Alchemy City from all sides one after another.
