This was the largest fortress town in the southern part of the Kaya Empire, Mingdu Sun Never Sets.
Sun Never Sets, as its name suggested, described the vastness of this region. The time zones in the east and west were separated by an entire day. It was early in the morning in the east, and the sun had not set in the west. This was not an exaggeration for the Great Forest of Sun Never Sets.
The Land of Light was divided into two parts, the north and the south. The Great Forest of the Sun Never Sets divided the land into two parts. The forest spanned across the entire continent, millions of miles long and hundreds of thousands of miles wide. It was a natural moat between the north and the south of the continent. It would take an ordinary traveler at least half a year to cross it. Moreover, the forest was filled with countless dangers. Even many illusionists and holy swordsmen did not dare to cross it alone, making it difficult for the north and south to communicate. This directly caused the north to prosper while the south declined.
In the north were the Kaya Empire, the Tis Duchy, the Padoric Kingdom, and the Sisistan Kingdom. There were only a few relatively small countries in the south. None of them could be compared to the four northern countries. Although the Kaya Empire's territory was divided to the south, it was only a small part.
Therefore, it was not surprising that even great illusionists were rare to see in a remote town like Qin City.
However, Sun Never Sets City was the largest fortress in the south of the Great Forest of the Sun Never Sets. It relied on the rich resources of the Great Forest of the Sun Never Sets. Adventurers, merchants, and mercenary teams came and went constantly. It was located in the hub of the four northern countries. Its scale was not inferior to the famous city of Lixia in the north. It was more than 20 times larger than an ordinary city.
In the evening, the sun was setting in the west. At the city gate of the Sun Never Sets Stronghold, a young man in a tattered black robe looked at everything before him in shock.
The 100-meter-tall city wall reached into the sky and was about seven to eight meters wide. The city wall was covered with a layer of asphalt paint, and it was green in color. It looked ancient and majestic. At the top of the city wall, more than ten arrow towers stood in a crisscross manner. There were also turrets with magic crystal cannons. Soldiers in heavy armor stood on both sides of the gate of the fortress. The Griffin Legion flew in twos and threes in the sky and patrolled the ground from time to time. Everything looked solemn and magnificent.
The black-robed youth couldn't help but exclaim softly,"I didn't expect to see such a majestic city here."”
This young man had a head full of shiny black hair, long and elegant, with sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes. Although his figure could not be considered tall, his entire person exuded an extremely steady aura. Beside him was an elegant and handsome silver wolf that was half the height of a person. It was very eye-catching, and almost everyone passing by could not help but take a look at her. However, when they saw her expression and her somewhat tattered clothes, they all revealed disdainful expressions.
A typical country bumpkin who had never seen the world before. To think that she even brought a magical beast with her. She seemed to be an illusionist!
In Sun Never Sets City, it was not rare to see real illusionists who had reached the seventh sword level or above. There were also many powerful ninth-sword illusionists and even great illusionists. There were also many illusionary beasts with them. Wind wolves, saber-toothed tigers, striped leopards, snow monsters, mountain spirit cats, and many other unrecognizable illusionary beasts.
"Fang, let's go." After a short pause, the black-robed youth was about to walk into this magnificent fortress town.
"Stop! The Sun Never Sets Stronghold forbids anyone with suspicious identities from entering and leaving!”A heavily armored soldier who had been observing her for a long time suddenly raised the sharp spear in his hand and blocked in front of the young man. His cold gaze revealed a few traces of contempt.
Apart from being a famous city, Sun Never Sets was also the largest military fortress in the south. It was guarded like an iron bucket, strictly preventing spies from other countries from entering. Therefore, it had never allowed refugees to enter. This young man was handsome and calm, but he was dressed in tattered clothes. He also brought a magical beast to look around. It was very consistent with the impression of a spy who pretended to be a victim in order to avoid being searched.
The soldiers guarding the city stared at the young man and thought, Little brat, don't think that I don't know you just because you're dressed like this. You want to sneak into the city from me? In your next life!
"Suspicious identity?" The black-robed youth seemed to find it very funny and seemed to have understood something. He stretched out his slender hand from under his robe, and three simple rings on his long white fingers appeared in everyone's vision. With a wave of the wind, the youth hung a silver badge that appeared out of thin air on his chest and asked the soldier,"How about this?"
" Uh…" The soldiers guarding the city widened their eyes in shock. Below the silver badge was a triangular star, and above it were nine small silver swords. The tips of the swords gathered at a point to form a fan shape. The silver glow was especially bright under the setting sun, causing many passers-by to stop and look at it in surprise.
Nine Sword Great Illusionist!
The soldiers guarding the city felt their throats turn dry. They swallowed a mouthful of saliva, hurriedly put away their spears, and bowed respectfully."Honorable illusionist, please forgive my rudeness.”
Although there were many illusionists and great illusionists in Sun Never Sets City, it was rare to see a great illusionist with seven swords or more. The young man in front of him had nine swords at such a young age, and he had an extremely precious interspatial ring that was worth tens of thousands of Obis. He must be a disciple of an extremely high status aristocratic family. Such a person would naturally not be a spy.
Many geniuses from the aristocratic families often went out to train. The Forest of the Unsetting Sun was a good place to go. Those who dared to venture into the Forest of the Unsetting Sun were at least great illusionists, and they were very bold because they could lose their lives there if they were not careful. The black-robed youth looked too young and was unlikely to be a great illusionist. Therefore, the soldiers guarding the city did not think of him as a trial-taker.
Everyone's gaze towards the black-robed beauty instantly changed. They were filled with respect and envy. Many people even lowered their heads humbly and bowed respectfully.
The respect for the strong had already reached a terrifying level of fanaticism on this mainland! This was an indisputable rule that was born after thousands of years of development! Illusionists were noble in their own right, and there was no need to mention the strong among them. Even though she was still a relatively young youth, it did not hinder people from pursuing her.
"Where is the nearest clothing store?”The black-robed youth did not blame him and asked. The clothes on her body were really too tattered. Although she did not care about elegance, she did not want to be looked at like a peephole.
"Milord, if you follow this path into the city, you will find the Hyde Merchant Association's trading center. There, you will find all sorts of items for sale. Moreover, you will be able to purchase Magical Beast Essence Crystals, furs, and other items that the adventurers who come out of the forest have obtained. You will even be able to find lodging there. If Milord requires it, we can send someone to lead the way for you.”The city guards were obviously very experienced. A travel-worn young man like him must have just come out of the forest. The first thing they would do was to replenish their supplies, sell their items, and find a place to stay.
"There's no need to lead the way. Thank you." Nodding her head, the black-robed youth slowly walked in the direction he had pointed. He seemed to be extremely slow, but in the blink of an eye, he had walked dozens of meters. The crowd around him did not even touch her clothes. The silver wolf that was half the height of a person nimbly followed. The gazes of the passers-by focused on the badge on the youth's chest. They were all surprised, and no one paid attention to her tattered clothes.
The soldiers guarding the city seemed to be in a dream as they muttered and sighed,"Isn't this world a little too crazy? Such a young Nine Sword Great Illusionist, oh my god, which great clan is this lord from?”
This was Ao Feng, who had already left Qin City for more than a month.
Before they set out, Ao Feng had never thought that the territory of the Radiant Continent would be so huge. The Forest of the Unsetting Sun was full of danger. The journey from Qin City to the City of the Unsetting Sun was only the periphery of the Forest of the Unsetting Sun, but there were also powerful magic beasts in it.
Ever since he was chased by a group of Thunderbirds and fled in panic, Ao Feng no longer dared to fly around the forest on his tusk. That was undoubtedly an act of courting death.
A large group of ordinary Magical Beast Fangs could still be dealt with the pressure of a Saint Beast, but most of those Magical Beasts had a King. Last time, there was a mutated Nine-star Spiritual Beast among the group of Nine-star Magical Beast Thunderbirds. It barely withstood the pressure of the Fangs and brought its tens of thousands of followers to sweep over.
The ants could kill an elephant. Ao Feng and Fang couldn't hold on any longer. They quickly turned around and ran away. It was not easy to get rid of those deadly guys. At that time, Ao Feng understood that the horror of the Forest of the Unsetting Sun was not just a lie. It was not just the horror of a single magical beast. Once the magical beasts in a group went crazy, it was simply fatal to a lone person like her.
After that, Ao Feng relied on walking in the forest while carefully hunting magical beasts to consolidate his level that had advanced too quickly. Fang only occasionally attacked at the most critical moment. After a month, Ao Feng had become proficient in the use of the illusory power in his body. His originally extraordinary combat skills had reached a new level. Coupled with his own set of footwork, he could also smoothly kill nine-star magical beasts.
One man and one wolf also encountered two lone low-star spirit beasts. Under the attack of Fang, their crystal cores and corpses all entered Ao Feng's space ring. At this stage, Ao Feng's Illusion God Art could not contract too many magical beasts. Ao Feng did not want to easily tame and contract magical beasts that were not holy beast level. One Fang's combat power was already strong enough, no matter how many spirit beasts there were, it was meaningless.
After walking in the forest for a whole month, his clothes were almost completely destroyed by the messy plants. Today, Ao Feng finally arrived at the Sun Never Sets City. The harvest along the way was very rich. Now, he just needed to find a place to sell them and buy enough supplies. Then, he could cross the Sun Never Sets Forest and head to the capital of the Kaya Empire to find his big brother and little uncle.
Ao Feng was thinking about what to buy when he suddenly heard a panting voice behind him."Esteemed Lord Illusionist, please wait!”
Ao Feng stopped and looked back, only to see a young swordsman wearing exquisite light armor and carrying a heavy sword chasing after him. This man had short, sharp hair, and a heroic spirit. He wore a triangular badge with silver patterns on his chest and seven stars hanging above it. His footsteps were light, and he quickly caught up to Ao Feng.
A seven-star Great Swordsman, what did he want from him? Ao Feng blinked his eyes in confusion. The fangs under his feet turned their heads in a human-like manner. Xiao Bing, who was on his neck, suddenly popped out half of her head and stared at the man.
