Seizing Bishui Again, Striking at the Heart

Feipeng Fortress stood in the Ice-Snow Mountain Range along the border between Vajra Temple and Ice God Palace.

The mountains here gathered spiritual energy, and the aura was rich and abundant. After several centuries of operation by the Feipeng Chamber of Commerce, this once barren, freezing snowfield had long transformed into the most prosperous cultivation stronghold on the border.
