That's only one aspect. Another aspect concerns the Boundary Tree.

He always felt that this thing was unusual and that he would be able to use it in the future.

His original region has become no-man's-land, no longer protected by the rules, and anyone can invade it.

Therefore, he needs to find a region that is still protected by the rules, and use the system rules to protect the players in that region, so as to prepare in advance for possible attacks from other transcendents in the future.

Therefore, his current plan is to transform into Night Owl and take Sun Eater to explore the Realm of Sin.

One reason is that he doesn't want to expose himself, and another is that Night Owl is the leader of the Shadow Hands, and has a lot of influence in the Netherworld. Maybe he can avoid conflict and just use his connections to get through.

The reason for bringing Sun Eater along is naturally because of Sun Eater's true heart and the bond between the two kings.

After making up his mind, Liu Nian prepared to set off with his men.

Before leaving, he opened the guild channel and asked the people who had been promoted to the Endless Wilderness: "Is anyone in danger or facing any emergency? I'll teleport there to provide support first."

The guild chat was silent for a few seconds, then a few scattered replies came through.

"No, it's safe."

"We're grinding monsters right now, it's great."

"Don't worry, sir, we're all keeping a low profile."

Liu Nian nodded and was about to turn off the channel when a message popped up.

The one speaking was Vayne, the Abebe bee.

"My lord, I'm not in any danger here... but there's something I don't know if you'd be interested in."

Liu Nian raised an eyebrow: "Speak."

Vayne: "There's a resource point nearby that produces a mineral called 'Moonlight Fluorite,' which can be used to make high-level enchanting materials. I've seen several waves of orc players come to fight for it every time it spawns."

Resource points are places where a certain type of resource will spawn regularly. These places are everywhere in the Abyss. The Endless Wilderness is too far away from here, and Liu Nian has no interest in going to great lengths for a resource point. So he told Vayne to be careful and not to get involved. He would take her back to Altavian later.

Vayne quickly replied, "Understood, sir."

Liu Nian turned off the channel and this time brought Yun Xiangrong, Yin Qianyu, and Kal'tsit with him.

"Let's go, come with me to pick them up!"

The reason for bringing Kal'tsit along is that she is quite famous among the snake people, and bringing her along is meant to provoke them.

Liu Nian activated the Boundary Breaker; a flash of light, and they were already standing on a gray-yellow wasteland.

Endless wilderness.

The sky here is higher and farther than in Ottaway, a pale blue, like an old cloth washed countless times. There are no mountains or forests around, only an endless wasteland stretching to the horizon, with a few lonely rocky hills standing out abruptly now and then.

It's very windy.

It was the kind of unrestrained, unobstructed wind that whipped up withered grass and yellow sand, stinging our faces. The air was thick with a dry, fishy smell—the scent of wild beasts, omnipresent.

Liu Nian took a deep breath.

Ah, the scent of the wilderness.

The first one he received was Devouring the Sun.

The teleportation coordinates were set next to Devourer of the Sun, who was currently fighting a wasteland wolf.

The wolf was as big as a calf, with grayish-yellow fur and fangs that were half a foot long. The sound of its pounce could be heard from a great distance.

But the power of the Sun Devourer is undeniable—level 103 monsters are just a warm-up for him.

With a few swipes of its claws, the Steppenwolf's head flew off, blood gushing out and staining the surrounding withered grass red.

The Devourer of the Sun withdrew his attack and looked at Liu Nian and the others:

"You've arrived!"

Liu Nian nodded, without exchanging any further pleasantries. Time was precious, so he immediately continued teleporting with Devouring Sun.

One by one, the local guides.

After gathering all ten people, Liu Nian teleported to the side of the Troll King Mosh.

Mosh hadn't been idle for the past month. He had already located the Wilderness Fortress and, at Liu Nian's request, rented a tower there as a temporary base.

Liu Nian handed the people over to be placed in the tower, and then made several more trips to gather all the players who had been upgraded to the Endless Wilderness.

Once everyone was present, Liu Nian gave a brief introduction to them.

The Abe bee people, the demon bear tribe, the trolls... exchanged pleasantries with each other.

From now on, we'll all be colleagues...

"Alright," Liu Nian clapped his hands, "Let Mosh show us around the city. You might need to come here to do quests and grind reputation in the future, so let's activate all the teleportation arrays today to save ourselves trouble later."

The crowd responded with a resounding roar.

The moment Liu Nian stepped out of the tower, he finally saw this legendary, barbaric fortress clearly.

Shocked!

That was his first reaction.

If Otawien is a combination of neatness, elegance, and sophistication, then Wild Fortress is the ultimate embodiment of savagery and power. The buildings here are taller and rougher, and every stone and every bone tells the same story—power.

The city wall was not built with stones, but rather with a mixture of huge stone blocks, whole animal bones, and rough metal.

Each of those stone slabs was thirty or forty meters long and as thick as ten people could hug, with a surface so rough that it could wear out one's palm; the animal bones were even more exaggerated, with some ribs being hundreds of meters long, bent into huge arches, embedded in the city wall like the fangs of giant beasts; the metal was not refined steel, but crude iron extracted directly from the mine, retaining its natural texture, color and sharp outline.

"From the outside," Mosh's voice was deep and powerful, "you'd be even more amazed!"

Liu Nian asked curiously, "How so?"

"This city is built atop a mountain, its entire shape sculpted to resemble a coiled dragon," Mosh gestured. "The fortress entrance is the dragon's mouth, and unless the fortress is under attack, its mouth remains open. It's said that the dragon's mouth isn't just a simple city gate, but also serves a combat function!"

As everyone imagined what the city would look like, they walked into the streets, where the hustle and bustle hit them.

It's noisier, more chaotic, and more vibrant than Ottawien.

The streets were ridiculously wide—at least thirty meters wide—yet still incredibly crowded. People of all races thronged the streets, some on foot, some on horseback, and some even in chariots…

Green-skinned orcs with protruding fangs, minotaurs carrying battle axes, jackals hunching over and sniffing around, rabbit-men with long, erect ears hopping about, lion-men with imposing heads, and rhinoceros-men whose every step shook the ground...

There are many more races whose names I don't know.

What impressed Liu Nian the most was the elephant man.

Those creatures were even larger than the Demon Bear Clan! They were definitely over five meters tall, with skin as rough as old tree bark, and two curved tusks over two meters long, gleaming sharply in the sunlight.

Their weapons were even more astonishing—the spiked clubs they wielded looked like they were made from whole trees, and their shields were almost the size of city gates! All their other equipment was also of special models… It's worth mentioning that this race had a player ranked fourth on the combat power list.

"These guys..." Sun-Eater's eyes lit up.
