Sword God in a World of Magic

The two of them traveled for a bit more and eventually slipped past the defenses.

They had officially left the Eternal Maw's territory, making the journey far easier.

As soon as they left the Eternal Maw's territory behind, they rapidly continued towards the east, zigzagging constantly.

"Are there any more dangerous territories?" Shang asked.

"One more," the Sweeper answered, "but it is the least dangerous one. Usually, it would be quite dangerous, but if you have some insights into darkness, it won't be a problem to get through it."

Shang nodded. "And that's it?"

"Correct. After that, the only dangerous location would be the Sky Lantern's territory, but it isn't as aggressive as the Eternal Maw."

By now, the two of them were about 200,000 kilometers away from Shang's branch, which actually wasn't even a third of the complete way.

However, the two most dangerous areas were near the center of the Natural Selection Company's territory, and they had just passed them.

Shang and the Sweeper kept traveling for nearly three days after this spot.

They broke through several borders, but none of the borders had been troublesome. Of course, there were more dangerous areas, but they didn't need to go through them.

By now, they had traveled for a total of four days, and they were only 100,000 kilometers away from the Sky Lantern.

Even though the climate hadn't changed previously, Shang could now see the difference.

They mostly traveled towards the east, but they had also traveled quite a bit towards the south, and Shang could tell that the surroundings had become a bit hotter.
