I can’t believe that’s how you pay to cross the river.... Considering how ridiculous the price is, there seems little point in crossing the river. And I bet there must be more to the story.0

As Xu Qing continued to peruse the information in the map, he was able to confirm his previous supposition.0

The God Blood River doesn’t just separate the west and south. It forms the borders between the other regions as well. And the process of crossing the river is guaranteed to be safe!0

Xu Qing’s eyes narrowed.0

Once you step foot on the ferry pilot’s boat, they take responsibility for your safety for the duration of the six-day journey. They won’t allow anything to interfere with the voyage. No one seems to know exactly how strong the ferry pilots are. But they do come from the Immortal Capital, and they’re not just ordinary people from there, they’re convicted felons.0

It didn’t take long for Xu Qing to come up with a theoretical possibility.0

Based on what I know of the Immortal Capital’s Trial of the Hunt, the people with the permission medallions are like venomous bugs in a jar. Their main goal is to rob and kill each other. And that means that these so-called ferry pilots... can provide a safe haven to the participants in the Trial of the Hunt. Twice!0

It doesn’t matter what danger they’re in. As long as they can get to a ferry pilot’s boat, they’ll have six days to rest and recuperate. When powerful experts fight, a six-day break to recover and prepare can completely change the outcome.0

Xu Qing’s eyes glittered brightly. Looking at it from that perspective, crossing the river could be considered a very valuable asset.0

The key is the timing. And if I can understand this, so can other cultivators in the Fifth Star Ring. In fact, probably everyone realizes...0
