The Misty Region was divided into outer, inner, and core regions. They were currently in the outer region. Under normal circumstances, it was difficult even to determine their bearings in the outer region, let alone understand the true expanse of the Misty Region. However, the distinction between the outer and inner regions was marked by a very clear boundary.
“That’s right,” Dominator Yun Lan explained. “To enter the inner region from the outer region, one must cross a misty river. This river is filled with nurous Mist Beasts. If one’s strength does not reach the level of a Heavenly Venerable, it is very easy to fall in the misty river. As for the inner region, I am unsure how to enter the core area. It is said that even in the Chaos Sea, very few know this secret. Even Supres dare not venture into the core region rashly.”
He continued, “I heard a secret that the core region is ho to terrifying Mist Beasts. The weakest among them are comparable to Supres, and the most powerful Mist Beast lords are beyond even the First Divine Lord of the Immortal Race.”
Listening to Dominator Yun Lan’s explanation, Ye Tian gained a deeper understanding of the Misty Region. Although the Human Race’s Kunwu Supre had also entered the Misty Region, it had been a very long ti ago, and he had only ventured in once before leaving. At that ti, Kunwu Supre had only stayed in the outer region for a while, so his knowledge of the Misty Region was not extensive.
“Dominator Fa Tian, are you planning to enter the inner region?” Dominator Yun Lan asked.
“Yes!” Ye Tian nodded. The outer region, although containing many treasures, did not hold much value for him. He sought treasures that could greatly benefit him and even considered exploring the core region if possible.
Suddenly, Dominator Yun Lan bent over and said, “Dominator Fa Tian, I wish to enter the inner region, but I am aware of my limited strength. Even in the outer region, the likelihood of falling is high. I know it is an excessive request to ask you to lead us into the inner region, but I have no one else to turn to. I know of a place with many top-tier spiritual herbs. My father and I once entered there. It’s a valley filled with Mist Beasts, and even my father, with his fourth-tier Heavenly Venerable strength, was injured there.”
He continued, “The location is remote, and since most of the old team that accompanied my father perished, it should be relatively unknown. If Dominator Fa Tian could take us there, I only ask for a few spiritual herbs.”
“Oh? Is there sothing in that place worth risking your life for?” Ye Tian asked.
“There are Nine-Colored Heavenly Crystal Grasses there, which can elevate a Chaos-level cultivation talent to a Mixed-level cultivation talent!” Dominator Yun Lan revealed.
“Really?” Ye Tian was moved. Although he did not need treasures to enhance his cultivation talent, the Human Race did! He could not reveal his ability to copy and bestow talents, but if he had Nine-Colored Heavenly Crystal Grasses, it could help the Human Race produce more Supres. Besides, the value of these grasses was high, and they could be traded for imnse wealth.
“Yes, but I cannot be certain of the exact number of Nine-Colored Heavenly Crystal Grasses. Additionally, we did not delve deep into the valley, so I cannot confirm if there are grasses comparable to Supres,” Dominator Yun Lan admitted.
“Alright, I’ll take you there! If we succeed, I will claim eighty percent of the spiritual herbs and treasures!” Ye Tian promised.
“Thank you, Dominator Fa Tian!” Dominator Yun Lan said excitedly. The other mbers of the Yun ng Mist rcenary Group were also visibly thrilled. They ventured into the Misty Region for resources and treasures. A single significant haul could set them up for the next hundred thousand years or even longer, eliminating the need for further perilous expeditions.
With a powerful figure like Ye Tian leading them, the group still faced dangers, but they had sufficient protection. Though they might not obtain top-tier spiritual treasures like the Nine-Colored Heavenly Crystal Grass, there was hope to acquire other valuable herbs and treasures. This was a rare opportunity.
“Let’s go!” Ye Tian commanded.
With a rush, the group headed toward the inner region of the Misty Region. Along the way, whenever Mist Beasts charged at them, Ye Tian swiftly dealt with them. As a result, the Yunng Mist rcenary Group faced no real danger, making it feel like a leisurely stroll through a garden.
Everyone knew this was all thanks to Ye Tian. Without him, attempting to fly quickly to the inner region would be suicidal. A few days later, they reached the misty river that separated the outer region from the inner region. The river teed with countless Mist Beasts, their roars shaking the entire area.
“There’s a peculiar rule over the misty river: high-altitude flight is impossible, only low-altitude flight is permitted. Moreover, spatial rules are prohibited, so we can’t just teleport across,” Dominator Yun Lan explained.
“Let’s fly straight across!” Ye Tian instructed.
The Yunng Mist rcenary Group flew over, activating their defensive formations but still feeling very anxious. A massive number of Mist Beasts, around a thousand, appeared, moving at incredible speeds—so even faster than a Dominator, matching the speed of a Heavenly Venerable. Among them were several Heavenly Venerable-level beasts, making it nearly impossible for even a fifth-tier Heavenly Venerable to pass without exhausting their treasures.
“This is bad! Why are there Heavenly Venerable-level Mist Beasts this ti?” Dominator Yun Lan was alard. On her previous visit with her father, they had not encountered such powerful beasts; the strongest had only been at the peak Dominator level, and her father had managed to cross with so effort. This ti, they seed particularly unlucky.
“Don’t worry,” Ye Tian said calmly. Dominator Yun Lan glanced at Ye Tian and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“Suppress!” Ye Tian pointed, and the void solidified. Under the pressure, nurous Mist Beasts were crushed into blood mist, and the Heavenly Venerable-level beasts were easily dispatched by Ye Tian, their bodies falling into the misty river.
Thanks to Ye Tian’s intervention, the group crossed the misty river without incident.
“So powerful!” Dominator Yun Lan secretly admired. Previously, Ye Tian had effortlessly defeated Heavenly Venerable Blood Wolf, but it had happened so fast that they hadn’t fully grasped his strength. Now, witnessing him easily annihilate a large number of Mist Beasts showcased his true power.
“Could Dominator Fa Tian, with such strength as a Dominator, be a top-tier Supre Prince cultivated in secret by a great cosmic race?” Dominator Yun Lan speculated. Even then, it was rare for a top-tier Supre Prince to possess such power.
“Or perhaps, Dominator Fa Tian is one of the Children of the Era from the Twelve Cosmic Eras,” she pondered further.
“Dominator Yun Lan, lead the way,” Ye Tian ordered.
“Alright!” Dominator Yun Lan nodded. Using various thods to determine their position, she finally identified the location of the valley.
“That way!” Dominator Yun Lan pointed in a direction.
