In the Ding Wei Region, there was only one Floating Island.
It belonged to Yang Valley, which assigned powerful cultivators to guard it.
Xuanwei Captain Ding Jingshan was the guardian of this Floating Island.
Though he had reached the Divine Presence Realm, his combat strength was relatively weak. He was not qualified to raise a banner of his own, and could only carry Yang Feng's Xuanwei Banner. Thus, he was called Xuanwei Captain.
On an ordinary Floating Island, an Outer Tower Peak cultivator with a Supernatural Power would be enough to keep it secure. But the Ding Wei Region had only one Human Race Floating Island, isolated and outnumbered, so it had to be garrisoned by a Divine Presence expert.
Unless they were willing to give up the island.

He felt a deep affinity with the Ding Wei Region, because his own surname was Ding.
This Floating Island was where he had earned his merits. It was his duty, and his honor.
For many years, he had never slacked off.
It was no exaggeration to say that the Human Race's ability to hold onto a Pure Land in the Ding Wei Region, resisting the pressure of five Sea Nests without falling completely, owed much to Ding Jingshan.

For an extraordinary cultivator, carving a mountain into a platform was a trivial
