Alex next read the political structure of the land, and while it was informative, it wasn't really something he was excited to learn about.
It only talked about the tensions between some minor sects that he would never have anything to do with. The bigger sects that ruled the land never really tried to attack the other State and start an all-out war. That was just not profitable for them.
Alex ignored that book and moved on to the talismans he had.
The next talisman he had was something that apparently noted down many famous spots to visit in the continent, including what was known as the 9 greatest places, which was also known as the 9 Wonders of the Northern Continent.
The talisman had information on two mountain peaks that were side by side where one spewed out lava, while a glacier flowed down the other one.
There was mention of a place so dense in water Qi that it was forever misty.
