Chapter 457: Generous Huo Lieyang, Jiang Chen's Preparations

Huo Lieyang hadn't paid much attention to Jiang Chen's youth before.

But when he suddenly discovered Jiang Chen's level, he was as if he had discovered a new continent.

A Level 52 person appearing in the Lower Space of the Ancient Battlefield is simply unheard of.

Previously only people above Level 70 could go to Upper Space; it had never been heard that people below Level 70 could come here.

Jiang Chen inadvertently created another piece of history.

Huo Lieyang's words attracted the others' attention, and they each looked at Jiang Chen in surprise.

Huo Lieyang asked, "Little brother, what's your name? How did you get here?"

Jiang Chen didn't hide it, "I am Jiang Chen, I came here because of some accident."

When they heard Jiang Chen's name, everyone was surprised.

Jiang Chen knew that these people might not have left the Ancient Battlefield for a long time.

Indeed, some people train in the Ancient Battlefield and stay for several years.

During those years, information becomes scarce, even cutting off contact with the outside world.

It's normal that they don't know themselves.

Jiang Chen didn't wear the Military Badge on his shoulder, and others didn't know his Two-Star Divine General status.

Communicating this way actually makes it a bit easier.

Huo Lieyang said, "Fortunately the little brother arrived on this Qinghai Grassland; it would have been dangerous elsewhere."

He thought that Jiang Chen, only Level 52, anywhere else besides here, encountering any monster, could instantly annihilate it completely.

Huo Lieyang said, "Alright, little brother, follow us first; when we finish our business here and go back, we'll see to it that we send you back as well."

"Our Blue Leaf Guild has a garrison here, arranged with a"

"departing Teleportation Array."

Huo Lieyang is very generous, and immediately invited Jiang Chen to join their party.

Jiang Chen didn't refuse, as he also wanted to inquire about the Deep Space.

He truly knows nothing about Deep Space, not even the direction.

Even if he wanted to go to Zang Lei Canyon, it would be blind as night.

However, Huo Lieyang's generosity made him feel goodwill.

He thought Huo Lieyang seemed somewhat similar to Wu Lingdong.

Compared with the Imperial Guild he once dealt with, he didn't know how much stronger he was.

After grouping Jiang Chen, the group set off again.

The group flew in midair; the Qinghai Grassland posed no danger, allowing free flight.

Conversely, walking on the grassland could potentially be dangerous.

Jiang Chen used his flight skill to stay beside Huo Lieyang; regarding Jiang Chen's flight skill, Huo Lieyang merely made a casual compliment, not showing much surprise.

What surprise could surpass Jiang Chen being able to come here.

Jiang Chen asked, "Senior Lieyang, what's the situation in Lower Space?"

Huo Lieyang laughed heartily, "Don't worry about calling me senior or not, it sounds awkward. Just call me brother; we're all brothers, I only happen to be a few years older than you."

Jiang Chen replied unreservedly, "Brother Lieyang, could you tell me about Lower Space?"

Huo Lieyang was very straightforward, "Of course, no problem. Whatever you want to know, I can tell you."

Jiang Chen said, "Everything about Lower Space."

Huo Lieyang thought for a moment, "Alright, let's start with the region we're in. This area is Qinghai Grassland, which is said to have been an ocean countless years ago."

"You should have seen the monsters here"

"already, right?"

Jiang Chen nodded, "Earlier a group called the Flying Eagle Guild killed some octopus monsters, took the Purified Water, and now went to Poison Snake Land."

Huo Lieyang laughed loudly, "Those guys are looking for trouble again. Not long ago they went there, got beaten back, and even lost lives."

"The Venomous Jiao is a Level 85 World-Class Boss; it's not that easy to deal with. But that's someone else's business, we can't intervene."

"Alright, never mind them, I'll continue speaking with you."

"Here we call it Qinghai Grassland; heading west leads to Poison Snake Land, and crossing Poison Snake Land reaches Giant Leaf Forest."

"Each region has a World-Class Boss, which is their territory."

"And the continent we are on is called the Wild Continent."

Huo Lieyang is generous, and he speaks with great patience.

Through his explanation, Jiang Chen gradually began to understand some information about Lower Space.

Lower Space indeed differs greatly from Upper Space.

Upper Space is the whole continent, merely divided into three major zones: the Outer Perimeter, the Central Core, and the Upper Layer.

But in Lower Space, it can be divided into four continents.

It is said that these four continents were once a single whole long ago.

Later, due to a great war, a super-stronger shattered the entire Lower Space into four continents.

Each continent is separated by seas, and at the center of the four continents lies the former battlefield, now the Devouring Void.

Traveling from one continent to another is not easy.

The continent they are on now is the Wild Continent located in the southern Lower Space.

The Blue Leaf Guild, as the top guild of the Human Race, is powerful.

In the southern Wild Continent and the eastern

Divine Dragon Continent also have garrisons.

Moreover, they have also set up a Teleportation Array, allowing travel between each other.

Jiang Chen also asked about information on Zang Lei Canyon.

Zang Lei Canyon lies at the center of the northern Wind‑Thunder Continent.

There are two routes to get there.

One is to go through the eastern Divine Dragon Continent, then cross the Wind‑Thunder Sea to enter the Wind‑Thunder Continent.

The other is from the far north of the western Falling Star Continent, which also leads into the Wind‑Thunder Continent.

But to reach the Falling Star Continent, one must first traverse the entire Wild Continent, and that is not easy.

Jiang Chen now understands that within the Wild Continent, the Qinghai Grassland is the southernmost point and the closest area to the Divine Dragon Continent.

Crossing the whole Wild Continent requires not only passing through the domain of the Venomous Jiao, but also the realm of the Giant Leaf Mother Tree, followed by several even more dangerous zones.

Jiang Chen outright declared that he would give up.

For now, it seems better to first return to the Divine Dragon Continent and then head north to the Wind‑Thunder Continent from there.

However, to reach the Divine Dragon Continent, one must either cross the Sea between the two continents oneself or use the appropriate Teleportation Array.

The Sea is filled not only with many powerful sea‑folk monsters but also with countless flying creatures, making passage difficult.

Jiang Chen decided to save his effort and shamelessly borrow the Blue Leaf Guild's Teleportation Array.

After all, he had rescued Huo Yuyao before, so borrowing their Teleportation Array didn't seem like a big deal.

"Brother Lieyang, are you of the same clan as Huo Yuyao?" Jiang Chen asked.

Huo Lieyang looked slightly surprised, "Jiang brother knows Yuyao?"

Jiang Chen replied, "I saw her in Upper Space; we had a brief encounter."

Huo Lieyang laughed heartily, "So that's how it is; in that case we really do have"

"…a connection. Huo Yuyao is my little sister; how is that girl doing now?"

Jiang Chen thought for a moment, "It's been over half a month since I last saw her; she's in the Core Area."

Huo Lieyang shook his head, "That girl is attached to some Knight Order and just wanders around. Fortunately her strength is decent, so she shouldn't be in danger."

This elder brother is not only cheerful but also magnanimous.

It wasn't just danger; she almost died, and that happened more than once.

Huo Lieyang sighed, "Counting it up, it's been more than two years since I last saw that girl. After we return this time, I'll also go back to rest for a while."

"Or if I can find a Space-time Portal, I could make a trip back to Upper Space to see that crazy girl."

Jiang Chen smiled faintly; in his view, the two siblings have somewhat similar temperaments, both hot‑headed.

Huo Lieyang suddenly asked, "Jiang brother, why are you inquiring about Zang Lei Canyon?"

Jiang Chen answered honestly, "I need to go there."

Huo Lieyang replied with surprise, "That's not easy to get to; there's no Teleportation Array between the Divine Dragon Continent and the Wind‑Thunder Continent, and even I can't be certain I could send you across the Wind‑Thunder Sea."

"When we get back to the Divine Dragon Continent, I'll think of a way and see if I can find a party to escort you."

He didn't even question why Jiang Chen wanted to go to Zang Lei Canyon; instead, he began helping to figure out how to get there.

Jiang Chen couldn't help but be greatly impressed by this burly man.

Jiang Chen said softly, "Thank you, Brother Lieyang. My matter isn't urgent; take your time."

At that moment the party halted, and Huo Lieyang said, "Jiang brother, you step back first."

Jiang Chen saw the destination that Huo Lieyang and his companions were heading for.

A gigantic monster with a light‑bulb atop its head.
