Chapter 528 - 167: [Evil!] (6,800)_2
"What’s this Escape Realm about? Didn’t the Saint issue a decree forbidding crossing the world wall?"
"It’s not forbidding crossing the world wall but prohibiting large-scale territorial expansion."
Chen Yan grinned.
Got it. They were beaten back, can’t openly colonize, but secretly crossing over to grab some benefits is still possible?
Seeing Chen Yan’s disdainful expression, You Su Yi could roughly guess what he was thinking and shook his head, saying: "It’s not as you imagine. The rules of this world are different. Although it has its own civilization development, in terms of the Domain Realm, there’s actually nothing here that the Domain Realm needs for cultivation.
If large-scale territorial expansion isn’t feasible, sending scattered individuals over won’t yield any significant benefits."
"Then why do people from the Domain Realm come over?"
"Just simple interaction." You Su Yi shook her head and said, "Having discovered a world and opened a portal, it can’t remain closed forever.
Even if there’s the Saint’s decree... human nature is curious, is greedy.
Your world also has laws, but is there no one who defies them?"
Chen Yan fell silent.
What the old fox said seems quite sensible.
"The Domain Realm gradually grasped a pattern; coming to your world without causing major disturbances won’t provoke the Heavenly Dao’s retaliation and reckoning.
After all, it’s a brand new world, and some people are always willing to come and explore.
Once the passage is open, where hearts desire, it can’t remain shut forever.
I know your Dragon Country in ancient times also practiced isolationism, but... even then, it was just closed for several decades or centuries.
In the Domain Realm, it’s been tens of thousands of years; it can’t remain forbidden forever.
Especially with your side’s civilization development, where you have your expertise, people from the Domain Realm wish to come over, exchange items of your civilization, and bring back insights for the cultivation civilization of the Domain Realm.
It’s said that blocking is not as effective as channeling; wanting to prohibit something entirely is impossible.
Therefore, within the world wall, some cultivators from the Domain Realm are periodically allowed to come as the array initiates its cycle.
Once the gateway opens, it equates to having a fixed passage.
With a fixed passage, there’s also... smuggling."
"Smuggling?"
"The world wall isn’t simply as you imagine, like a door, or a road, with some cultivators guarding with swords and guns—it’s not that simple."
You Su Yi shivered slightly as she continued, "The connection between the two worlds isn’t as you imagine, like a country’s customs point, just a passage with security checks and guards.
The location of the world wall is actually where two worlds’ spaces overlap.
It includes vast ocean areas, towering mountain ranges, space turbulence, boundless deserts...
Moreover, many locations within the world wall I’ve mentioned can change in an instant.
Originally flat deserts can suddenly transform into abysmal chasms.
Originally towering mountain ranges can collapse within space turbulence in an instant, turning into dust!
You might be walking fine one moment, and then suddenly a space tear appears in the air before you, ripping you into pieces!
It’s a chaotic space and almost boundless.
Such a vast space of overlap can’t be fully guarded.
The so-called Boundary Wall Array merely isolates the most stable and passable areas using an array.
The other chaotic zones are virtually inaccessible.
And thus, the Escape Realm was born."
You Su Yi seemed to recall her own experience with the Escape Realm, shivering suddenly, her complexion turned pale, she said in a low voice: "When I originally escaped through the Realm, it was out of sheer desperation, taking the risk to escape the Realm for a chance at survival.
During that escape, besides me, there was also that White Fox, and accompanying us were dozens of Domain Realm’s human race cultivators and demon cultivators.
Within the world wall, we crossed various chaotic zones, enduring countless dangers at the risk of our lives!
Ultimately, only I and that White Fox survived, the other cultivators and demon cultivators perished within the turbulent flows of the world wall.
I even personally witnessed a Body Cultivator at the Celestial Human Realm walking just fine in front of me one second.
The next second, his body suddenly split apart, torn into pieces by the power of a space turbulence that appeared out of nowhere!"
Seeing the fear on You Su Yi’s face, Chen Yan couldn’t help but frown and ask: "With such immense danger, why are there still individuals from the Domain Realm willing to risk escaping?
What crime did they commit in the Domain Realm that warrants such enormous risk to escape the Realm?"
Upon hearing this, a strange expression emerged on You Su Yi’s face, and she sighed lightly: "My friend, haven’t you heard a phrase... information disparity."
"Hmm?"
"Those who haven’t experienced escaping the Realm don’t realize how dangerous it is inside!
And those who have truly experienced the dangers of escaping the Realm are all dead.
Dead people don’t speak.
And those who survive, like me... can’t return to the Domain Realm and tell the Domain Realm’s people about it."
Pausing for a moment, You Su Yi shook her head and said: "Even with the Immortal Platform issuing bans, clearly stating prohibitions on escaping the Realm and the multitude of dangers within the world wall.
But... without firsthand experience, the so-called ’multitude of dangers’ are just four words in people’s minds. They always feel with their cultivation, relying solely on their cultivation, they can make it.
