"Trial? Our elders did not tell us that it was a trial, but that they meant escape. At that time, our Divine Eagle Clan was fighting with the Cat Clan. Many tribesmen were killed by the strong men of the Cat Clan, and even the clan leader was injured. , Shendiao Mountain was destroyed, and we were also driven out. At that time, there were many of our tribesmen, probably at least 100,000, and they fled in seven or eight directions. I was still young, so I escaped under the protection of the elders. Arriving inside the Hongmeng Mountains. This is my earliest memory." Jinshan said.
"Emperor Ling met you in the northern kingdom of God. How did you get there?" Huang Long said.
"After I flew out of this mountain, I didn't see a single clan member again. I flew around at will and visited many places, including the great forest in the north where you are, and the beach to the east. I even went to the sea for a long time," Jinshan said.
"Hehehe, no wonder you are well-informed and courageous!" Kameyama said enviously.
"Go, go, go! I was on the run. I didn't dare to stay in one place for too long, so I could only fly everywhere. Only after seeing Emperor Ling did I stop flying randomly!" Jinshan said.
"Shan Ying and you are of the same race, haven't you ever communicated with him?" Huang Long said.
"I communicated with Shan Ying. He didn't escape with me. He was born in the northern forest. He said that his parents should be the same as me. They both escaped from the south of Hongmeng Mountain." Jinshan said.
"Where are his parents now?" Kameyama asked curiously.
"Shanying said that not long after he was born, roughly when he was able to fly, his parents flew away, and he didn't know where they were going," Jinshan said regretfully.
"By the way, this Tianguan Divine Kingdom was established by the Shendiao family. Could it be that it was established by the clansmen who came with you?" Guishan said.
"I have suspected it too, but not in terms of time. This Heavenly Crown Divine Kingdom has been established for more than two hundred years, but I remember that it hasn't been that long since we were kicked out, probably less than a hundred years at most!" Jinshan said.
"No, I saw the mountain eagle in the forest three or four hundred years ago. Although the mountain eagle's cultivation level was very low at that time, it was often with the Ox King and stood on top of the Ox King's head. Sometimes You also helped Brother Ox King pick the fruits from the tree!" Huang Long said.
"Hahaha, brother Jinshan, you may have mistaken the time by flying around!" Kameyama said with a smile.
"This is also possible. I remember one time I was resting on a cliff and I didn't know how long I slept." Jinshan said while flying.
"Your divine infant and claws are not only 10,000 years old, but also 5,000 years old. It is absolutely impossible to be more than a hundred years old. You must have forgotten the time in your cultivation." Huang Long said.
"Hahaha, you all came from the demon world and have a clear concept of time. We, the Divine Eagle Clan, really have no concept of time. Maybe it has been a long, long time since I escaped from the family!" Jinshan said mockingly.
At this time, more than ten miles to the right of Jinshan Mountain, in a huge mountain basin, Sha Guanbang's team surrounded Xing Guanbang's team, and the two armies were confronting each other.
"This is a flat road that runs from north to south. It is also the place where we intercepted the strong man from Sha Guan State last time. According to the traffic of Sha Guan State's team, this should be the most important north-south passage." Huang Long said.
"Yes, I have explored this road. It is wider and flatter than the roads to the west. No wonder Sha Guanbang uses this as the main battlefield every time." Guishan said.
"Although other roads are relatively smooth, they are all rugged and difficult to navigate. Only this road is flat and wide, suitable for large teams to walk. This is a road that we must focus on in the future. Okay, let's move on!" Huang Ling said.
"Would you like to watch the battle between Sha Guanbang and Xing Guanbang again?" Jinshan said.
"Forget it, let's do our own business and stop worrying about the battle between Xing Guanbang and Sha Guanbang! Their victory or defeat has little to do with us!" Kamishan said.
"Yes, maybe we can see the results of their battle when we return." Jinshan said while flying forward.
Huang Ling, Huang Long, and Guishan continued to observe while talking to understand the situation inside the Hongmeng Mountains.
Two days later, there were no more mountains in front of Jinshan Mountain, replaced by flat grassland as far as the eye could see.
Guishan said: "The Hongmeng Mountains end here. To the west of this grassland should be the western forest. The western forest extends from the northern forest."
"If the passages in the Hongmeng Mountains are guarded, the creatures from the south can also come to the north through this grassland. It seems that it is impossible to completely isolate the north and south of the Hongmeng Mountains!" Huang Long said.
"Yes, the entire God Realm is connected. Although there is a forest barrier between the human race and the demon clan, they can still communicate with each other, let alone within the demon clan. It is impossible for us to completely rely on mountains to isolate the north and the south. This is We are required to continuously increase our strength, strive to maintain the balance between the north and the south, and reduce the nuisance of the creatures in the south. Of course, if the creatures in the north become stronger, they can also go to the south to wander!" Huang Ling said.
"Yes, yes, yes, that makes sense! As long as we are strong, we are not afraid of the creatures from the south coming to disturb us. It seems that improving our cultivation and increasing our strength is the key." Huang Long nodded.
"Okay, let's go back to the east!" Huang Ling said.
Jinshan then turned and flew eastward.
The distance from where Jinshan is now to where Xing Guanbang and Sha Guanbang's teams fought is about six thousand miles.
These six thousand miles range from majestic mountains to low hills to rolling grasslands, with diverse terrain and complex conditions. Although reaching the far west is flat grassland, it is not easy to cross from south to north or from north to south.
If we did not go through the passage in the middle of the mountains and detoured from the westernmost grassland, the length of the route would exceed 10,000 miles.
Such a length of road is a serious test for any living being or any divine kingdom, and it is a waste of time.
It is precisely because of this that when creatures from the south want to cross the Hongmeng Mountains, they usually pass through the passage in the middle of the mountains instead of going around to the westernmost grassland.
Huang Ling stood on the back of Jinshan and thought while observing.
"The territory to the west of Tianquan Divine Kingdom is vast and there are many divine kingdoms. From what we know, the areas of several divine states in the south of Tianquan Divine Kingdom are relatively large, which is larger than the combined area of Xingguan Bang and Du Guanbang of Tianguan Divine Kingdom. Big, why did the divine kingdoms with such disparity in geographical area form in the first place?" Huang Long said.
"I heard that when the divine kingdom was first formed, the size of the territory was not considered. It was mainly based on the number of creatures in the divine kingdom. As long as the number of creatures was large, you could establish a divine kingdom on your own. Some divine kingdoms relied on one or two. Cities were built, and then they fought for territory and gradually formed the territory of the divine kingdom. This is probably how Xingguan State and Du Guan State were formed. All the divine states in the Tianquan Divine Kingdom are large in area. I am afraid that they were all established after the divine states were established. Gradually occupied," Kameyama said.
"Among the Tianguan Divine Kingdom, the largest territories are Mangguan State and Banqi State in the north, as well as Yiguan State and Dongguan State in the east. They expanded north to east and gained a relatively large territory. As for the west, Since the Meng Guan State, Kang Guan State and Xing Guan State are bordering several divine states of the Tianquan Divine Kingdom, they cannot expand their territories at all," Guishan continued.
"It seems that the Heavenly Crown Divine Kingdom is indeed inferior to the Tianquan Divine Kingdom, both in terms of the number of creatures and the territory. There is also a clear gap in combat effectiveness. It was indeed completely correct for us to start with the Heavenly Crown Divine Kingdom! Huang Long said.
"Yes, compared to each other, Tianguan Divine Kingdom is indeed weaker, but it is relatively easy for us!" Kameyama said.
"This may be the reason why the creatures in the south are willing to come to the north from Xingguanbang!" Jinshan said.
Two days later, Jin Shanfei returned to the place where Xing Guanbang and Sha Guanbang's teams fought.
However, there are no fighting teams here, only patches of blood and fragments of meat and bones are left.
"Their battle is over. I don't know if Sha Guanbang's team fled to the south, or if Xing Guanbang's team fled to the north?" Guishan said.
"Judging from the traces left behind by the battle, Xing Guanbang's team escaped, while Sha Guanbang's team chased north. Should we go over and take a look?" Jinshan said.
"No need to look. Xingguanbang's team has not escaped yet, and Sha Guanbang's team is still pursuing. I'm afraid that in two days, Xingguanbang's chief assistant will send a message to Brother Guishan and ask Yunxi Bang went to support them. Let's go, let's continue eastward until we see the Hongmeng Mountains." Huang Ling said.
"Okay!" Jinshan agreed and continued flying east.
He knew that it was still more than five thousand miles from here to the east coast, and it would take two days of flying to reach it.
"We don't need to form an alliance with Xingguan State. Their victory or defeat has nothing to do with us. There is really no need to see them anymore," Kameyama said.
"Yes, instead of caring about the victory or defeat of Xing Guanbang and Sha Guanbang, it is better to consider the possibility of Du Guanbang forming an alliance with us. Du Guanbang is calm now, and there is no war around. I am afraid that his desire to form an alliance is not very strong." Jinshan said.
But at this moment, Guishan received a message from the manager of Dongguan State Mashan.
The content of the message was that Du Guanbang sent representatives to Dongguanbang and asked Dongguanbang to help them contact and introduce representatives of the Northern Alliance, hoping to join the alliance.
"Hahaha, it's true that the flowers are planted intentionally but the willows are planted unintentionally. Xing Guanbang rejected us, but Du Guanbang took the initiative to contact us. Okay, great!" Huang Long said with admiration.
"Okay, reply to General Manager Mashan and directly agree to Du Guanbang joining the alliance, and ask the leader of Dongguan State and Du Guanbang's representative to discuss the agreement first. We will arrive tomorrow." Huang Ling said.
Guishan responded to Mashan and informed him of Huang Ling's intention. Then, as a representative of the alliance, he sent a message to the leader and chief auxiliary of Dongguan State, requesting the leader and chief auxiliary of Dongguan State to negotiate with representatives of Du Guanbang on behalf of the alliance and formulate an agreement to join the alliance.
"Hahaha, the alliance headed by Yun Xibang is indeed an open alliance! Chief Assistant Guishan sent a message, asking us to discuss the agreement to join the alliance with Representative Du Guanbang on behalf of the alliance. This means that the alliance must be based on our The agreement negotiated with Du Guanbang is the main one. They will come over tomorrow to preside over the signing ceremony for Du Guanbang to join the alliance. Okay, very good! Mr. Chief Assistant, we will entrust you with all the matters regarding the alliance agreement with Representative Du Guanbang. I hope you can negotiate the right solution. We, Dong Guan Bang and Du Guan Bang, have an agreement that is beneficial to both parties!" The leader of Dong Guan Bang said happily after receiving the message from Guishan.
The chief assistant of Dong Guanbang, standing next to Mashan, said: "Thank you for your trust, Lord! I will definitely negotiate an agreement with Representative Du Guanbang that is beneficial to our two states. According to the wishes of the chief assistant of Guishan, the agreement of the alliance should be more open and more open. It is conducive to the exchanges and common improvement between Shenbang and Shenbang, and I will definitely implement these alliance intentions of Guishan Chief Assistant and the state leader."
