At the exit, the area had already been occupied by the Rakshasa Tribe. Ding Fan was uneasy, instructing Herr Ningshuang to warn the elders of the Rakshasa Tribe again, ensuring they regard this place as a forbidden area, forbidding anyone from approaching.
"Let's go!"
Ding Fan led the charge into the swamp, and the teleportation array was indeed still there. Everyone emerged, and amidst flashes of white light, they finally arrived in the Tigertooth Ape's alien world.
"Alright."
Ding Fan and Ye Li arrived in the Tigertooth Ape world, exchanging a glance filled with relief. Outside, Herr Qianjun and others were still guarding the area, with thousands of Fifth Level experts from the Divine Realm protecting it.
"Miss Ningshuang!"
Herr Qianjun's eyes lit up upon seeing Herr Ningshuang, and he called out excitedly; Herr Ningshuang's eyes reddened too. Though she was covered in mud, she didn't care, rushing over to kneel on one knee, chokingly said to Uncle Qianjun, "It's my fault, Ningshuang has been thoughtless, worrying Uncle Qianjun."
"Stand up, stand up, as long as you're back safely, nothing else matters."
Herr Ningshuang is the hope for the Herr Family, this niece is treated like a daughter by Herr Qianjun himself.
"Zhong Zhiyong!"
Ding Fan had no time for Herr Ningshuang and Herr Qianjun at the moment, instead he went to Zhong Zhiyong, solemnly saying, "You go out immediately, summon skilled craftsmen and materials, I want to build a large structure here to seal off the teleportation mechanism, barring anyone from passing."
"What?"
Zhong Zhiyong was shocked, as were the others who couldn't help but stare at Ding Fan.
Ding Fan gestured for Herr Qianjun to lead the Fourth Level and Fifth Level Divine Realm experts to retreat before explaining, "This Barbarian Land is not only inhabited by the Rakshasa and Copper Fiend Tribes, but also many terrifying races. There are at least a dozen Seventh Level experts. Should they emerge, the Northern Wastelands would be doomed."
"This?"
Everyone's complexion changed, Ding Fan's words took them by surprise, and Ye Li understood his intent, nodding in agreement, "It seems we really can't let the races from this interface emerge, or the Northern Wastelands might face an apocalypse."
Zhao Tianyong frowned, considering, "Given the fearsome races and powerful experts inside, why don't we destroy the teleportation passage directly?"
Wouldn't destroying this passage solve the problem once and for all? Why would Ding Fan expend so much manpower and resources to seal it?
Ding Fan naturally could not divulge the real reason, pausing before explaining, "The Rakshasa Tribe occupies the other side of the exit, so we are still safe for now. We can build a sealing formation here; if foreign invaders come, we can sever the connection between the Tigertooth Ape world and the Northern Wastelands. You've seen the numerous High Level Spirit Villages in that world; we can find a way to sneak in and secretly harvest some Spiritual Materials."
"Indeed!"
The eyes of the group suddenly brightened, they all noticed the abundance of High Level Spiritual Materials in that world, though they couldn't harvest them now, there would surely be opportunities in the future.
"Listen to me!"
Ding Fan solemnly explained, "Apart from us, speak to no one of this alien world, not even your wife and children. This world not only has one passage but supposedly another linking to the Central Plains. It might even belong to one of the Super Families of the Central Plains, so once this news spreads, you should be aware of the consequences."
"Mm mm!"
The group nodded quickly, none daring to be careless. This matter affects everyone's interest, and if mishandled, entire families could be obliterated.
"Alright, everyone stay here for a while, wait until the Great Formation is completed, then you can leave."
After speaking at length, Ding Fan gave instructions to Zhong Zhiyong; in reality, building a Great Formation isn't difficult, many families in the Northern Wastelands have such craftsmen and materials.
Herr Ningshuang asked Herr Qianjun to notify Madam Yan; she didn't leave immediately. Learning Ding Fan slaughtered an entire Tigertooth Ape world in search of her moved her deeply; she was reluctant to leave.
The group settled by the swamp, where a small river stood. They camped by the riverbank, cleaned up, sent people to hunt beasts, and enjoyed a feast of roasted meat.
By the riverbank.
A breeze swept by; Ding Fan and Herr Ningshuang stood by the river, and it was Herr Ningshuang who had actively invited Ding Fan there. However, when he brought her to the riverside, she fell silent, staring blankly at the water.
Escaping the dangerous alien world, rescuing Herr Ningshuang, Ding Fan's heart was now at peace. The picturesque scenery and beauty at close hand, lifted his spirits, turning to ask, "Ningshuang, what are you thinking?"
Herr Ningshuang gathered courage, looked up at Ding Fan, "Ding Fan, I mastered the Rakshasa Tribe's Divine Skill; it's a very... vulgar Secret Technique. You won't abandon me because of this, will you?"
Ding Fan couldn't help but laugh, realizing she'd been worried about this all along. Learning the Rakshasa Tribe's Secret Technique made her feel less pure than before, fearing Ding Fan might disdain her for it.
Ding Fan took Herr Ningshuang's delicate hand, "Ningshuang, I've unified the Northern Wastelands, established the Aotian Empire, now the Empire needs a queen, would you... honor us?"
Herr Ningshuang blushed, withdrew her hand, shyly saying, "I was asking you something, why are you... bringing this up?"
"Hahaha!"
Ding Fan laughed, playfully adding, "Not just a Secret Technique, even if you became a Rakshasa Tribe warrior, I wouldn't abhor you. Of course, you belong to me now; your... Rakshasa Tribe Secret Techniques can only be used on me."
"You… you rascal!"
Herr Ningshuang was so embarrassed she couldn't bear to face anyone, covering her face as she fled, her skirt flaring like a dancing butterfly...
Ten days later, Zhong Zhiyong returned with many skilled craftsmen, completely excavating the swamp where the passage lay, then establishing a Super Great Formation outside the teleportation passage.
Should anyone teleport from the alien world, they'd be trapped in the formation, and its Guardians would immediately know someone had arrived.
Ding Fan, still lacking confidence, added another Great Formation outside it, forming two layers of formations. Even a Seventh Level expert from the alien world would have ample time to issue a warning.
After the warning, powerful Guardians at the Tigertooth Ape world's exit would destroy the passage. Although they may never have the chance to return to the Barbarian Lands, at least Northern Wastelands would be secure.
Having completed all this, Ding Fan left several staunch loyalists of the Herr Family to guard while withdrawing the rest.
Ding Fan issued a stern order forbidding anyone from revealing matters regarding the Tigertooth Ape world and Barbarian Lands, under penalty of death for leaking, and annihilation of their family.
Ding Fan and his group leapt into the abyss at the exit, amidst a flash of white light, everyone emerged in the Demon Sea.
The Demon Sea teemed with Sea Beasts, but such mighty experts' presence frightened them away long ago. Ding Fan and others appeared directly within the Demon Sea.
"Ah! Look, there's another tornado?"
Soaring into the sky, Ding Fan saw the storm raging, lightning flashing, with a huge tornado in the distance.
How similar this sight is to what they saw at sea? Ding Fan was moved, taking out a Super Airship, leaping aboard, and waving at Zhong Zhiyong and others, "Zhong Zhiyong, you handle the follow-up, I'm going to cultivate here for a while."
Zhong Zhiyong and Crimson Flame had a glint in their eyes; both knew Ding Fan once had an "insight" at sea. For a cultivator, realizing Heaven Earth True Insight is a major event. Though the Empire was founded, and much needed handling, Ding Fan never bothered with trifles; cultivating here is no different than in Dream Love City.
"Patriarch Ye and I will guard here, Zhong Zhiyong, you handle your affairs, and ensure no great turmoil breaks out in the Northern Wastelands."
Crimson Flame considered, addressing Zhong Zhiyong and Zhao Tianyong, who nodded. With Ye Li and Crimson Flame guarding, security was guaranteed. They were Great Generals with matters to attend to, lacking time to protect Ding Fan.
"Ningshuang, return home for now; your aunt and sister are worried about you."
Herr Qianjun noticed Herr Ningshuang's gaze on Ding Fan, whispered softly, Herr Ningshuang nodded, ascended the airship, joining Ding Fan's side, saying, "Ding Fan, I'll check back at home, then return to see you."
"Alright, alright!"
Ding Fan smiled, waved, continuing to gaze at the distant tornado, ignoring farewells from others, focused in silence.
He felt, perhaps... this time he might realize the True Insight contained within the tornado.
Everyone departed, Zhong Che Yong arranged guards in the vicinity, prepared to destroy the passage to the Tigertooth Ape world at once should any issue arise.
