After another week of travel, Gravis and Siral arrived in the proximity of the Nine Elements Sect. The number of mortal villages and cities became higher the closer they got. The Immortals, Immortal Kings, and Immortal Emperors probably didn't dare to fight this close to the Nine Elements Sect, granting the mortals a relative paradise.
Fortunately, Gravis and Siral didn't come across any Cultivation cities, thanks to the red arrow that the old man in the Life Sect's branch had shown them. There had to be a ton of powerful cities and Sects under the rulership of the Nine Elements Sect, but by just following the red arrow, Gravis and Siral avoided all of them.
