<h4>Chapter 472: Territory</h4> <h4><strong>Trantor: </strong>As Studios <strong> Editor: </strong>As Studios</h4>


    “Brother Lin Feng, let’s go down together.”


    Venerable Vigil shrank his body and flew directly into Vigil with Lin Feng.


    “Dominus.”


    “Dominus…”


    Lin Feng entered the and realized that it had an antique style. There were cultivators everywhere, and there were very few technological things. Moreover, the people he met all addressed Venerable Vigil as “Dominus”.


    “Brother Lin Feng, I advocate pure cultivation, so I rarely use technological things.”


    As if seeing Lin Feng’s confusion, Venerable Vigil exined meaningfully.


    There were a total of 72s in the region upied by Venerable Vigil. Apart from the stars, there were arge number of cultivators on all thes, and their poption exceeded 100 billion.


    These hundreds of billions of people and 72s all fell under the territory of Venerable Vigil. In this territory, Venerable Vigil was the only ruler, just like Divine King Bemond of the Bemond Gxy.


    This was also the case for most of the regions of the North River Gxy. Some powerful cultivators controlled their own faction and upied manys. They turned theses into their territory and ruled in their own way.


    These rulers were all called Domini.


    The Domini were naturally differentiated into greater Domini and lesser Domini. The lesser Domini were basically just elementaryary lifeforms that ruled over one or a fews.


    The slightly greater Domini were known as the Venerables, and basically all ruled over more than tens. Someone like Venerable Vigil was a Venerable, and was rather powerful among the Venerables, ruling over a total of 72s.


    As for the great Domini, there were rtively few of them in the North River Gxy. Every great Dominus basically ruled over 1,000 territorials, and they were all ultimateary lifeforms. In the North River Gxy, such great Domini were all called Grand Emperors!


    Every Grand Emperor was famed and undefeated in the cosmos. Apart from the gctic-level Divine Kings, they were the strongest.


    The North River Divine King was the strongest in the North River Gxy, but he basically did not interfere with the various major factions in the North River Gxy. Moreover, he had not developed a powerful faction like the Divine Pce of Bemond.


    Hence, countless ambitious cultivators and countless factions entered the North River Gxy to “stake their im in the new market”. Cultivators even often attacked each other and annexed each other’s territory.


    As for the use of these territories?


    Of course they were useful, and the uses were huge. Manyary lifeforms needed resources. Arge amount of resources, such as some cosmic miraculous items, also required some resources for purchase.


    Where would the resourcese from?


    Naturally, they came from theses. Due to the open nature of the North River Gxy, countless cultivators surged in, making it a holynd for cultivation.


    There were all kinds of Origin Weapons, cultivation methods, and miraculous items. They were simply innumerable. As a result, every in the North River Gxy was developed to the extreme by cultivators, and had the best cultivation environment.


    As time passed, the North River Gxy naturally became a holynd for cultivation.


    There were even fiends hiding among them to stir up trouble. After all, in such a holynd for cultivation, even if they only devoured one, there would be powerful cultivators within. Devouring one such was equivalent to devouring dozens ofs in other gxies.


    Naturally, the North River Gxy would attract countless fiends to infiltrate it. However, the cultivators of the North River Gxy also viewed fiends as public enemies. After all, even when two Domini attacked each other, it was for the sake ofpeting for the territorials. Basically very few people would destroys on arge scale.


    However, fiends could devours and everything. They were consideredpletely destructive. Once traces of fiends were discovered, cultivators would quickly band together to attack them.


    Of course, there must be some very cautious and deeply concealed fiends.


    “Dominus, this is…?”


    In the Dominus Manor, there was a Minotaur with a pair of long, curved horns. Even in his ordinary form, he was more than two meters tall. He looked very burly and ferocious.


    “Bai Xiong, this is Brother Lin Feng, whom I just met. He is a disciple of the Divine Pce of Bemond!”


    “Brother Lin Feng, this is Bai Xiong, my right-hand man. Normally, when I’m not around, Bai Xiong would manage all the matters in the territory.”


    “Greetings, Brother Bai.”


    “Your Highness Lin Feng.”


    This Bai Xiong looked boorish, but he was actually very thoughtful. He had heard the title “Brother Lin Feng” from Venerable Vigil. This was very rare indeed.


    Bai Xiong knew Venerable Vigil very well. Venerable Vigil was prideful. He was outstanding among the Venerables, and even had a chance of bing a Grand Emperor. There were very few cultivators that Venerable Vigil regarded with respect.


    Even if those who were also Venerables might not be regarded highly by Venerable Vigil.


    However, now that Venerable Vigil was so “familiar” with Lin Feng, and even befriended him as an equal. This was unusual, and meant that Venerable Vigil regarded Lin Feng very highly.


    Bai Xiong could only sense the aura of six life transitions on Lin Feng. It had to be known that life transitions could not be concealed. The aura of six life transitions meant that Lin Feng was only aary lifeform.


    Why was aary lifeform so highly regarded by Venerable Vigil?


    Even though Bai Xiong was very curious, he was very respectful towards Lin Feng.


    Lin Feng was also observing Bai Xiong. He sensed the aura of six life transitions on Bai Xiong. Clearly, the other party was also an elementaryary lifeform.


    In the universe, a cultivator that was an elementary lifeform was quite rare toe by. He did not expect to see aary lifeform so soon.


    “Dominus, how is your artifact?”


    “Although there were some twists and turns, it is finallypleted!”


    “It ispleted?”


    A look of joy appeared on Bai Xiong’s face. He knew how much effort Venerable Vigil had put in for the Ennead Pearls of Spirit Fire. This was no ordinary Origin Weapon. Just collecting the materials had taken centuries.


    “Bai Xiong, has anything happened in the territory recently?”


    Venerable Vigil could also tell that Bai Xiong seemed to want to say something but hesitated. Hence, he waved his hand and said, “Brother Lin Feng is one of us. If you have anything to say, just say it.”


    Bai Xiong gritted his teeth and said, “Dominus, during your absence, Venerable Oceanus recruited some foreignary cultivators from somewhere. Although they are only elementaryary lifeforms, they are very strong. They often provoked us. A fewmanders in the territory could not tolerate the provocations and fought with them, and wound up suffering heavy losses.”


    “There’s such a thing?”


    Venerable Vigil’s expression darkened.


    “Dominus, the mysterious cultivators that Venerable Oceanus recruited are indeed very strong. Almost every one is not inferior to me. Even I am not confident of defeating them myself.”


    “Fortunately, we are protected by the cosmic array, so those people do not dare to enter the territory. However, I think Venerable Oceanus must have a major agenda for recruiting these mysterious cultivators, and provoking us continuously recently. Dominus, please make preparations early.”


    Venerable Vigilughed coldly and said, “Oceanus has fought with me for thousands of years. What method has he not used? All he wants is to annex my 72 territorial stars. As long as I’m around, he can forget about ever defeating me. However, your reminder is right. That Oceanus has recruited so many cultivators. He wouldn’t keep them around for nothing, and will definitely cause trouble. Pay close attention to those mysterious cultivators and investigate them thoroughly.”


    “Yes, Dominus.”


    Bai Xiong epted the order and left. Venerable Vigil turned around and said to Lin Feng with a smile, “That was embarrassing in front of Brother Lin Feng. I’ll go and deal with some mundane matters first. How about I let Bai Xiong bring Brother Lin Feng for a tour around the?”


    “It’s fine. Big Brother, go ahead. I happen to be a little tired, so I will go and rest first.”


    “All right, I’ll hold a wee party for Brother Lin Feng after I’m done with mundane matters.”


    Hence, Lin Feng parted ways with Venerable Vigil and turned to leave the residence.
