Chapter 1392 - Because You’re Weak
Across the boundless plains, a lone figure swept forward at lightning speed. It was none other than Chen Fan.
Although the Immortal Conferral Ancient Realm was expansive, countless years of exploration had carved out havens amidst its dangers. Enormous cities rose one after another, serving as places of rest, trade, and survival for those within.
But permanence did not exist here. The names of these cities shifted constantly, tied not to history but to power.
The map in Chen Fan’s hands marked the city ahead as Taifeng City, yet whether it still bore that name was uncertain. Here, a city’s name changed with its ruler. Whoever seized it by force claimed the right to rename it.
Over a decade ago, Taifeng City was occupied by a peerless pride of heaven by the name of Jiang Taifeng. Whether he still reigned or had long since been defeated and replaced, Chen Fan had no way of knowing.
After all, the Immortal Conferral Ancient Realm was an open realm. As long as an Immortal King realm expert acted as a guide, people could be sent in. There was no time limit. One could remain indefinitely, venturing as deep as they dared.
Every year, new prodigies entered to chase fortunes and uncover hidden legacies, so many that no one could say how vast the current number of inhabitants truly was. It was a land of treasures, yes, but also a merciless trial ground.
Here, status meant nothing. Even the descendant of a Sage could be struck down like any other. Every day, countless lives were claimed, for only strength spoke the final word.
Within the ancient realm, the wills of Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors, or even Sages, were completely useless. Anything that exceeded the realm’s allowed limit of power would be crushed outright by the rules of this world.
This way, things were absolutely fair.
Most who entered the ancient realm carried extraordinary backgrounds. So, while not all had the immortal wills of Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors protecting them, at least half did.
The wills could not intervene in a crisis here. If they were triggered at every brush with death, the Immortal Conferral Ancient Realm would lose its meaning entirely.
