Alex didn't have any thoughts about Gatlin. Others might be afraid of Gatlin's special background, but Alex didn't care about that. What is more, Alex now knew much more than any of these people. He knew that Gatlin is really not a simple old man. He is actually a Martial Emperor. A martial warrior like him couldn't be found in the entire Red Leaf City and even in the entire Wasteland. In fact, even in the Middle Lands, there should be very few Martial Emperors.

That night, when Alex returned, he heard Gatlin's shout. Gatlin kept shouting that he was hungry. Alex had not eaten anything as well. Therefore, he casually cooked some food.

After dinner, Gatlin drank another big bowl of Spirit Wine and then went back to the storeroom to sleep once again.

Alex did not notice anything at first. When Alex was about to go back to his room to rest, his eyes inadvertently glanced over, and then he discovered a very special scene.

Gatlin was sleeping very peacefully, breathing naturally, however, a faint stream of starlight could be seen slowly gathering towards his body.

A thoughtful expression appeared on Alex's face. He knew that this was not normal. He kept observing the situation on Gatlin's body. He saw the starlight entering his body and at that moment, his body suddenly trembled a little. It was as if something wanted to come out of his body.

However, the next instant, a circular magical formation appeared on his body. Then hundreds of black divine chains appeared that wrapped around the old man's body. It was as if these chains were binding the thing that wanted to come out. And soon the chains disappeared and everything returned to normal.

Alex didn't know what happened, but he knew he was not strong enough to know the old man's situation.

.....

A few days passed just like this. Alex had broken through to Golden Core Stage Level 3. In these few days, he met Gatlin only two times. Two days ago, he suddenly disappeared somewhere.

Today, Alex was planning to visit the Alchemy Hall to buy some pills using the contribution points, however, he was still midway there when every Inner Court Disciples were summoned by First Elder.

Alex had to turn back and go to the place First Elder had told every Inner Disciple to come.

When he arrived at that place, there were already more than 500 disciples gathered. He blended into the crowd, not attracting anyone's attention.

Although his achievements were outstanding, it was still in the Outer Court. In the Inner Court, only a few people knew about his achievements. So, he didn't attract anyone's attention and blended into the crown successfully.

First Elder was floating in the air above, and behind him were floating a few other elders. Alex also saw the Third Elder floating in the sky. This third elder was the one who came to look for him after knowing about his cultivation talent when he came to the Floating Cloud Academy for the first time.

As the time passed second by second, more and more people continued to come. After half an hour, more than eight hundred Inner Court disciples gathered at this place.

"What is going on? Why do you think First Elder summoned us here?"

"Who knows what is going on here!"

"I think there must be something very important to announce. This is why the First Elder summoned every Inner Court disciple here."

"Yesterday, I saw a middle-aged who was exuding a powerful aura and was walking with a domineering attitude side by side with the First Elder. I think the reason First Elder summoned us here must be related to that middle-aged man in some ways."

Almost all the disciples of the Inner Court were present now, so naturally, they'll chat with each other. Their conversation only stopped after hearing the First Elder's coughing sound.

Seeing almost all the disciples of the Inner Court has come, the First Elder was finally ready to say something. As for those who didn't come, they were the people who either were not present in the Floating Cloud Academy and were outside doing some mission or due to other reasons, or they were the disciples who were killed and died.

"Silence!"

"Everyone, listen carefully. You all might not know about the thing I'm gonna announce now. So, I'll talk in detail."

"Our Essence Sky World is very big and we are living in a small corner. Our Floating Cloud Academy is located in the Red Leaf Country and Red Leaf Country is only like a dot in the middle of millions of small dots like itself. The Red Leaf Country is actually located in a place called Wasteland. There are nine countries in the Wasteland and Red Leaf Country is only one of them. However, even the entire Wasteland is nothing but an abandoned place."

"Yes, you might not believe what I'm saying, but this is the truth. The Wasteland was abandoned about ten thousand years ago because, for some reason, the spirit energy in the air here suddenly became thin. Now, even breaking through to Heavenly Completion Stage in the Wasteland has become very difficult."

"Outside the Wasteland, there are three cultivation lands. They are called Purgatory Land, Middle Land, and Thunder Sky Land. The Middle Land is located between the Purgatory Land and Thunder Sky Land, maybe this is the reason why it is called Middle Land. Anyways, our Wasteland is nothing but a border between the Purgatory Land and the Middle Land. It is not even as big as one-tenth of any one of the three cultivation lands."

"In the cultivation lands, you can find Heavenly Completion Stage and above martial warriors casually walking on the road. Even a Heavenly Completion Stage martial warriors like the leader of our Floating Cloud Academy are only treated as ants in the cultivation lands."

The inner court disciples who were hearing all these didn't know how to react. The next moment, a commotion broke out between the inner court disciples. They all started talking among themselves. Every single one of them was shocked and astounded. None of them knew that the place they were staying was so small.

Even Alex was no different from these people. Although he knew about the existence of the Middle Land, he had no idea where it is located or how big it actually is.

"Silent!"

First Elder said loudly, causing everyone to place their hands on their ears. First Elder's voice was really too loud. The previous commotion immediately disappeared. All the inner court disciples knew that First Elder still have many things to say, so they become silent and started listening to the First Elder once again.

The First Elder nodded his head in satisfaction after seeing the disciples' reaction. Then he took a deep breath and once again started saying, "If you are thinking of leaving the Wasteland and going to any of the three cultivation lands, then let me tell you, leaving the Wasteland is no small matter."

"I've previously already said that our Wasteland is located at the border between the Purgatory Land and the Middle Land. If you want to leave the border and go to any of the three cultivation lands, you'll have to first cross the Valley of Death."

"Valley Of Death is named like this because anyone who enters the Valley Of Death never returned alive. The Valley of Death is extremely big, extending to the three cultivation lands. In short, then be it if you want to go from the Purgatory Land to the Middle Land or from Middle Land to the Thunder Sky Land, you'll have to cross the Valley Of Death first. The Valley Of Death is the true border between the three cultivation lands."

"Our Wasteland was abandoned not only because the spirit energy here has become too thin, but it is also because it is located extremely close to the Valley of Death."

"No one knows how the Valley of Death appeared, but there is a rumor that about a million years ago, a terrifying war was fought which resulted in the appearance of the Valley of Death. This war also shattered the entire Essence Sky World into five parts called five continents. The three cultivation lands that I just talked about are located in the Eastern Continent of the Essence Sky World. Well, you can say that these three cultivation lands together are called the Eastern Continent."

"And Eastern Continent is the weakest among the five continents."
