Since the Carefree Sect's northern campaign occupied White Dragon Valley, more than forty years had passed.
Now, after decades of painstaking development by the Carefree Sect, White Dragon Valley's Grade 3 High-grade Spirit Vein had long since been cleared of all its miasma, becoming a spiritual land suitable for Human Race Cultivators to live in.
However, situated at the very forefront of the sect's battlefield, White Dragon Valley lay extremely close to Golden Feather Mountain, which was controlled by the northern Demon Race. Its location deep within enemy territory was likewise highly dangerous.
Apart from White Dragon Valley's Level 3 Spirit Vein, the surrounding areas were teeming with demonic beasts and remained largely under the Demon Race's control, with scarcely any cultivators or mortals living there.
After occupying this spirit vein, the Carefree Sect had also stationed quite a few cultivators here to guard against an invasion by the northern Demon Race.
Yet because White Dragon Valley's position was too exposed, defending it was far more arduous than defending Guiyun Marketplace in the rear. It could easily be surrounded by the Demonic Beast Army from all sides.
By the time Song Qingming and Bai Yuxian arrived at White Dragon Valley through the Teleportation Array connected to Guiyun Marketplace, the valley had already been besieged by the Demonic Beast Army for quite some time.
But as it was already late at night, neither side had launched a major battle. Thus, apart from the conspicuous Mountain Protection Array, all of White Dragon Valley seemed especially quiet.
Upon hearing that Song Qingming and Bai Yuxian had arrived, Chen Xuanxin, who was overseeing the city, hurried over with a delighted expression and cupped his hands in greeting before them.
"Greetings, Martial Uncle Bai, Martial Uncle Song!"
Ever since the great battle at Nanyue Marketplace
