Skyscraping World

Skyscraping World (摩天界 motianjie), world where mozu like Yue Xiaoqian live. 
The Primordial Devil Ancestral land is located here. (More info at Primordial Devil/History.)
== Story ==
=== Pills ===
Long Chen helps them get pills for cultivation. XTD and Pill Valley had a row, but he could get the pills via Huayun Sect.
I'll give them pill formulas and have them refine a huge amount of healing pills. Once all your people are better, they can then refine other pills for you, such as those for cultivation. The Eastern Wasteland is basically dominated by the Xuantian Dao Sect now. The Corrupt path is heavily injured, and the ancient races don't dare to make a move.
"During this time, you can establish a secret base. On the surface, you'll be engaging in some minor business, but in reality, I'll have the Xuantian Dao Sect and Huayun Sect open back channels for you. With the two of them supporting you, no one will dare to provoke you. It would be best if your business involves rare things that few others are involved in. The fewer your customers, the better. It would also be best if your business is the kind that only reveals itself every few years."
Within a few days, a huge pile of pills arrive, and Yu and Yue are delighted.
After sending off aunt Yu, Long Chen once more had a meeting with Zheng Wenlong. When he mentioned he wanted to cooperate in terms of alchemy, Zheng Wenlong became ecstatic. The profit from medicinal pills was the greatest in this world.
Long Chen gave Zheng Wenlong over ten medicinal pill formulas in one go. They were all pills that didn't exist in the outside world. Pill Valley had never sold them, and their medicinal effect was extremely great. Zheng Wenlong almost fainted from joy.
Last time he had cooperated with Long Chen like this, he had earned a hefty sum. Even now, money was flowing into his pockets.
Armed with these new medicinal pills, Zheng Wenlong promised to properly use them and give a fierce slap to Pill Valley's face.
=== Gilded Past ===
The two of them progressed deeper into the Skyscraping World. Long Chen hadn’t expected the Skyscraping World to be so marvelous. It was like the Spirit World. However, a large part of it was now a barren wasteland.
Yue Xiaoqian explained that there had once been a terrible battle, a battle strong enough to influence the laws of this world. The vitality in those barren wastelands had been stripped away, and their situation had been extremely bleak, especially with the inability to get more resources from the Martial Heaven Continent.
“Originally, the Skyscraping World was a sacred land. Based on the historical murals, it was filled with beautiful ancient forests and wonderful sights. Unfortunately, all of that was destroyed in battle. Battle really is the most frightening thing. No matter what you have, battle will mercilessly strip it from you. Your resources, your wealth, your inheritance, and even your life. That’s why I hate battle.”
== Spatial tears ==
On the way, the Elder explained that the Skyscraping World was a minor world, and now that the great era was descending, the Martial Heaven Continent’s world energy was squeezing it, causing cracks to appear in many parts of it. Those spatial cracks opened the path for demonic beasts to invade.
The demonic beasts had started coming a year ago. The original devil race had sent blockades to the spatial cracks to kill the demonic beasts that came out.
However, it wasn’t that they were too strong, but that they came in an unending tide. As time passed, the spatial cracks grew larger, and stronger demonic beasts started to appear.
There were now over ten major spatial cracks in the Skyscraping World. The largest one was over a thousand miles long. Powerful demonic beasts were constantly pouring into the Skyscraping World, forcing the original devil race to defend day and night.
The majority of the original devil race’s energy was being taken up by the demonic beasts. Even some of their experts that had been out on missions had been called back.
== Entrance ==
The flying boat quickly flew to the northeastern part of the Sea-Ring. After a few days, the Elder had Long Chen stop at a certain coordinate within the sea.
It was a very unremarkable location. The Elder took out an ancient bone talisman and made a stroke with it through the air. A resplendent light enveloped the flying boat.
Long Chen felt the flying boat enter a current of space. The Elder made another stroke through the air with the bone talisman, bringing the flying boat into a different current.
Long Chen knew that this was an extremely complicated method of transportation. Even if others found the location, without knowing the spatial nodes, they would never find the real entrance. This was one hundred percent safe.
After nine times, a transportation formation appeared ahead in the air.
This transportation formation was actually in the sky, completely out of Long Chen’s expectations. He had thought that the final transportation formation would be at the bottom of the Sea-Ring.
Once they were there, Long Chen saw four more Elders sitting cross-legged in the air like four statues.
They only opened their eyes when the flying boat approached. The Devil character appeared in their eyes. These four Elders might only be at the Life Star realm, but the pressure they exuded was startling.
Long Chen’s flying boat had its own defenses, but their eyes seemed to be able to see through anything. After looking at the flying boat, the four of them formed hand seals, causing the transportation formation’s runes to light up. It formed a channel, and Long Chen’s flying boat was drawn out of his control.
The flying boat shuddered. The world in front of Long Chen’s eyes changed. He felt the world was completely different from the Martial Heaven Continent.
This was a barren land with unending mountains and no tall trees, only some short vegetation. Most places were covered in bare rock. Those rocks looked like they had experienced many years. The aura of powerful experts still lingered on them. There were even some faint red marks. It seemed that the blood of experts had seeped into these rocks.
“The Skyscraping World was originally a sacred and holy land, but after experiencing countless battles, it’s gained its current appearance,” said the Elder sadly.
The flying boat continued onward. The remnant pressure lingering on the ground grew stronger, and countless gorges appeared in the ground. Along the dark red rocks, it was like everything was shouting that this had once been a battlefield.
After half a day, they finally arrived at a giant gate. This gate was so tall that it reached the clouds. A giant Devil character was carved into the top of it.
That Devil character shone with divine light. It was like it was the mark of a god.
== Relationships ==
“Why has our original devil race become the target of all the Martial Heaven Continent’s experts?” Long Chen had wanted to ask this many times on the way here, but he had endured. Seeing the scene in front of him, he could no longer hold back his curiosity.
He knew that this was most likely the original devil race’s greatest secret. There had never been a good time for him to ask, but when Yue Xiaoqian had helped him annihilate those Empyrean Winged Blood Devils, he had thought of a certain possibility.
“You should personally ask the sacred daughter this question. The story’s too long, and having an old man like me tell it would make it sound tedious.” The Elder smiled faintly. His eyes contained a different kind of meaning.
