Outside Of Time



There were four provinces in the northwestern part of the county capital.

The extreme west was the Linlan province, which was where the current western battlefield was located. The snowy plains in the north was the Taihe province, which was the northern battlefield.

In the gap between these two provinces, there was a province called the Yutian province.

Due to the constant melting and nourishment from the snow plains in the far north, the terrain of the Yutian Province remains moist. Additionally, there are volcanic remnants underground, which lead to the continuous rise of mist and rain into the sky, resulting in abundant rainfall. That is how the province earned its name[1].

The fourth province was near Yutian Province. It was called Qiling Province.

This name came from a famous mountainous region in this province.

Mountainous regions and mountain ranges were different.

The latter was a series of connected mountain peaks and ridges that extended endlessly like meridians with obvious folds.

Mountainous regions didn't have obvious folds and were mostly distributed in some volcanic zones. It resembled a massive complex formed by countless independent peaks and the land itself.

The Full Spirit Race lived in this 50,000-kilometer-wide mountain region.

The members of this race were all tall with an average height of 50 feet. Their cultivation method leaned toward the physical body, especially after they attached themselves to the Quasi-Immortal Race. Following the traditions of the Wanggu Continent, they were bestowed with the bloodline of the Quasi-Immortal Race, causing their race to change and grow wings.

However, because they had a huge body, the wings weren't able to provide them with flying ability. It was more like a symbol.

The reason why the Quasi-Immortal Race valued them so much was because the Full Spirit Race had exceptional skills in weapon forging and alchemy.

There were countless forging and alchemy workshops in the Qiling Mountains. Some were run by individual clansmen, and some were jointly created by many people.

There were at least hundreds of thousands of them.

The clanking sounds and the medicinal fragrance emitted by alchemy existed all year round in this mountainous region. Earth fire was continuously drawn out from various areas, so the climate of this mountainous region was mainly hot.

It could be said that at every second, a large number of medicinal pills and magic artifacts would be made by them and flowed into the market.

There were also restricted areas where they dried medicinal materials. There were so many of them that it was astonishing.contemporary romance

With the earth fire and their innate talents, the medicinal pills and magic artifacts that came from this race were often considered good-grade on the market and were quite expensive.

However, no matter how high the price was, it was impossible for a pill that usually cost 20 spirit stones to be priced at 1,000 spirit stones.

If it was before the war, it would be impossible for such a ridiculous thing to happen. Not to mention buying them, even if the Sword Holding Palace wanted them, they only needed to send a decree.

Even though they were attached to the Quasi-Immortal Race, the Full Spirit Race knew the path of balance very well. They wouldn't offend the human race over such a small matter. Even now, they had their own reasons behind increasing the price so much.

At that moment, on the ancestral mountain temple of the Full Spirit Race, the leaders of the Four Veins were having a secret discussion.

"This high price is to express our standpoint to the Quasi-Immortal Race!"

"During this war, there's a high chance that this enclave of the human race won't be able to survive."

The leaders of the Four Veins wore luxurious clothes and carried many luxurious decorative magic artifacts.

As for the temple they were in, there were two statues enshrined in it, one in front and one behind. The statue in front looked similar to them, and the one at the back was an immortal in the sky.

It was the ancestor of the Quasi-Immortal Race.

In front of these two statues was almost 10,000 precious spirit fruits and top-grade medicinal pills, emitting dense spirit qi fluctuations.

This was their respect for these enshrined ancestral statues.

These spirit fruits or medicinal pills were resources that were urgently needed on the frontline battlefield.

Up until now, there were many casualties in this war to defend Fenghai County.

It would be an exaggeration to say that one of these medicinal pills and spirit fruits could save a life. However, ten of them would be enough to save one.

However, none of these four leaders cared about the life and death of the human race on the battlefield. From their standpoint, they only cared about the impact of the future situation on their race.

"However, we still have to give face to Marquis Yao. After all, in the past few hundred years, Marquis Yao has provided us with a lot of convenience. In order to build an image that we repay the gratitude shown to us, we still have to give some medicinal pills."

"Alright, we'll first sell a large portion for a high price to express our stand to the Quasi-Immortal Race. Then, we'll give a small portion to establish our image. In the end, we'll sell a small portion at a fair price to represent our stance."

"This is actually the thought of all the clansmen. Before I came here, I asked our clansmen and all of them agreed that we should sell the pills at a high price at this time. After all… the human race is rich."

"It's the same for my branch. Many clansmen even proposed to clear the warehouse of those shoddy medicinal pills that were originally going to be thrown out. However, this can easily cause trouble. What a pity."

"Since everyone has the same thoughts, let's do it the old way. One branch will support the human race, one branch will repay the debt of gratitude, one branch will observe and remain silent while secretly contacting the Holy Wave Race to express goodwill, and one branch will continue to express its standpoint to the Quasi-Immortal Race!"

"In order to make this matter look more real, we will argue for a few days and put on an act…"

The four leaders smiled at each other and stood up one after another. Just as they were about to end this secret meeting, a terrifying pressure that shocked everyone and even caused their hearts to skip a beat suddenly descended from the sky.
