The fairies I flirted with in the game became real?!

The pavilion was shrouded in white mist, thick with moisture in the air.

Li Muyang was utterly honest, laying his cards on the table as he awaited Glass Immortal Maiden’s reply.

Dragging his feet had never been his style.

However, after his words had been spoken, Glass Immortal Maiden before him fell silent.

She tilted her head in thought for a moment before saying, “This journey north to find Nameless Lord is primarily to deliver a warning. I heard from Brother Shen that Lord Nameless is somewhat uninformed about the situation north of Yin Mountain…”

Chu Qingxue gazed toward Star Moon Lake outside the pavilion, her eyes seemingly piercing through the dense fog to see the bottom and the Dragon Palace.

She quietly said, “Indeed, slaughtering evil beings and purging Demons in the lands of North Land bring boundless blessings to all living beings.”

“But to open the Dragon Palace of the Water Mansion, flaunting its presence… such actions are too provocative and will lead to disaster,” she added.

After some contemplation, what Glass Immortal Maiden spoke of was not related to feelings but was extremely serious about non-emotional matters.

Li Muyang’s ears suddenly filled with the sound of the dragon maiden’s disappointed voice.

“Ah? Is that what she wanted to talk about…”

Not seeing the anticipated drama of a love-struck pair, the dragon maiden was very disappointed.

Li Muyang was also slightly taken aback, looking puzzledly at Chu Qingxue in front of him, unable to grasp the immortal’s true intentions.

Was it that she believed this matter to be most important, thus she mentioned it first,

or was it… that this immortal was avoiding the issue?

Uncertain of Chu Qingxue’s thoughts, Li Muyang could only continue the conversation along her line of topic for the time being.

This topic indeed was of his concern as well.

“Lead to disaster, huh…” Li Muyang thought for a moment and asked, “Could the immortal clarify, what disaster are we talking about? Are you referring to the evil beings from beyond the North Land?”

Glass Immortal Maiden nodded her head initially, but then she shook her head immediately after: “Yes, but also no.”

“Your actions with the Jade Water River Dragon God will indeed attract the hostility of those foreign entities from beyond the border. Yet, the crisis is not limited to just those evil beings there but also extends to the land north of Yin Mountain.”

Glass Immortal Maiden said, “My master once stated that the land north of Yin Mountain hides a thread of immortal fate, but within that opportunity lies danger… This land will consume people.”

The last statement from Chu Qingxue caught Li Muyang off-guard.

The watching dragon maiden was also very surprised.

“The land eats people? What does that mean?”

This phrase sounded rather sinister.

Li Muyang furrowed his brows and asked, “Could the immortal elaborate, what does it mean by the land eating people?”

Glass Immortal Maiden said, “It means just what it sounds like… this land will devour living beings.”

“Living, cultivating on this land, you are always at risk of being consumed by it.”

“And the higher the cultivation, the stronger the life force, the more likely it is to be targeted and devoured by this land.”

Chu Qingxue looked at Li Muyang, speaking these terrifying words in an eerily calm tone.

“This land… is alive.”

“???”

At Chu Qingxue’s words, Li Muyang was utterly baffled.

The land is alive?

And it eats people?

What the hell…

In that moment, he suddenly felt a bone-chilling sensation.

The land north of Yin Mountain, eats people?

The higher the cultivation, the higher the risk of being consumed?

Is that why there are no cultivators or demons in the land north of Yin Mountain, and even the Demon Suppression Magus of the imperial observatory wouldn’t set foot in that place?

Li Muyang stared blankly at the mud below his feet, which looked just like any other patch of land he had stepped on before.

He could neither feel the pulse of life nor sense any danger.

Yet, Li Muyang did not doubt what Chu Qingxue had said.

There was no reason for the Glass Immortal Maiden to specifically come to deceive him.

Li Muyang frowned and said, “So, that’s why there are no cultivators or demons in the North Land? Even the vile creatures beyond the borders don’t dare to step inside… is it because the land inside the borders devours humans?”

The Glass Immortal Maiden shook her head, “To correct you, it’s not just the land inside the borders. The entire land north of the Yin Mountain devours humans.”

The Glass Immortal Maiden said, “And the further north you go, the greater the risk of being consumed by this land becomes.”

“Only those anomalies beyond the borders somehow manage to avoid being devoured using some method.”

“However, their avoidance techniques seem to only work outside the borders. Once they cross in, they become ineffective.”

The Glass Immortal Maiden then burst out with another critical piece of information.

After hearing this, Li Muyang finally felt a sense of sudden clarity.

So, was this the power dynamic of the land north of Yin Mountain? Stay connected with My Virtual Library Empire

The land devours humans, and even the vile creatures from beyond the borders could only avoid it with some peculiar technique?

No wonder the counties of the North Land became a corner forgotten by both sides, roamed only by a few vile creatures.

And these creatures also seemed to vanish into thin air at times.

Before arriving here, the villagers in the North Land would either pray to the supernatural beings beyond the borders for salvation or wait for the roaming vile creatures nearby to leave on their own.

Now it seemed, those creatures might not have left at all; they were likely consumed by the land.

This is insane…

Li Muyang sighed deeply and said, “The Tianyuan Dynasty really is a land of outstanding individuals and spirits!”

He couldn’t help but express this sentiment again.

Truly, this continent was utterly pervaded by a sinister nature.

Always concocting some fresh mischief.

Li Muyang had thought that after experiencing the ancient grudge well in the south, the Demon Suppression Magus of the Celestial Oversight, and the roaming vile creatures beyond the borders, he was hardly shockable anymore.

Yet, the very ground he tread upon turned out to be alive!

Li Muyang curiously asked, “Did True Person Qing Ye ever say why this land is alive?”

A land that devours humans, this was truly an eye-opener.

However, the Glass Immortal Maiden shook her head and said, “My master did not mention it. Perhaps he also knows little.”

“But this land devours humans, hence it has been forgotten by the world.”

“Nameless sir, you and the Dragon God of the Jade Water River have been cultivating here, even ostentatiously establishing the Dragon Palace of the Water Mansion, yet your cultivation has steadily increased…”

The Glass Immortal Maiden looked worriedly at Li Muyang and said, “I am very concerned that this land could devour you at any moment.”

“…” Hearing Chu Qingxue’s concern, Li Muyang also fell into a silent contemplation.

He pondered for a moment and asked, “If I stay flying in the sky, never landing on the ground, could I avoid being devour?”

The instincts of a game player made him want to exploit the bug.

But the Glass Immortal Maiden shook her head, “That won’t work. This land and the sky are one and the same.”

“As long as you are within this domain, unless you can fly above the nine heavens where all is barren, you will be devoured by the land.”

The Glass Immortal Maiden’s description made the land seem even more terrifying.

According to her, you’d have to fly into the vacuum of space, beyond the nine barren heavens, to avoid being devoured?

That being the case, this land was far too frightening, and its range of devouring far too broad.

The Dragon Maiden had started to feel afraid.

“Li Muyang, can we go with your friend to the south? This place is just too sinister!”
