Chapter 615: Chapter 57: The Wang Family of Southern Desert?_2 Chapter 615: Chapter 57: The Wang Family of Southern Desert?_2 For this reason, there are not a few strange fierce beasts and exotic spirit plants within the Tianlong Mountain Range.

It’s said that deep within Tianlong Mountain, there are even remnants of level-seven fierce beasts lurking.

Even a cultivator of the Purple Abode Realm would not dare to arbitrarily tread deep into Tianlong Mountain.

However, humans have the Tianlong Mountain surrounded, and high-level fierce beasts would not dare to casually leave the barrier of Tianlong Mountain, or else they would be gifting humans with Heaven and Earth treasures.

Of course, in the same vein, it is not easy for humans to traverse the Tianlong Mountain either.

Currently, there are only three paths to traverse the Tianlong Mountain.

The first is to follow the flow of Peace River upstream, overcoming countless dangerous ravines to cross the Tianlong Mountain Range.

… Second is to leave from the Northwest Guard, the northernmost point of Longzuo County, traverse the vast Da Huang Prairie and reach Southern Desert County.

However, the Da Huang Prairie is boundless, most of it still consists of desolate lands that humans have not reclaimed.

Not only do uncivilized barbarian tribes live there, but many fierce beasts inhabit too.

Taking this path is extremely dangerous.

The third is to traverse through the narrowest part of Tianlong Mountain, the Qing Long Corridor.

After traveling just several hundred miles, you can reach the famous “Qing An Basin”.

This is a vast basin abundant with lakes and water sources, fertile land, and a pleasant climate.

It’s an ideal place for human habitation.

This basin is also one of the earliest areas reclaimed by humans in Great Qian Land.

Inside the Qing An Basin, there is a prefecture named “Qing An Prefecture”.

Qing An Prefecture is one of the prefectures within Great Qian Land that has the least disaster and is one of the wealthiest.

The conditions of the prominent families here are generally much better than those in Longzuo County, with even more luxurious clothing and food.

There are also more 7th and 6th rank prominent families compared to Longzuo County.

Wang Shouzhe and Qian Xuerui took this route through the Qing An Basin this time.

However, “Qing An Prefecture” was not the destination of Wang Shouzhe’s journey this time.

Therefore, he only briefly rested in a few convenient guard cities along the way and casually appreciated the wealth and style of Qing An Prefecture.

The flying carriage traveled northwards, after five or six days of travel, it arrived at “Zhen Bei Pass”, located in the northernmost part of Qing An Prefecture.

Zhen Bei Pass was formerly the first stronghold of Great Qian Land, with daunting terrain that was described as being “where one man guards the pass, ten thousand are unable to open”.

Once they exited “Zhen Bei Pass”, they reached the destination of Wang Shouzhe’s journey – Southern Desert County.

Southern Desert County earned its name for its location south of the Great Desert.

But Southern Desert County is not a desert region, but instead a boundless prairie.

Its terrain, prominent family structure, industrial chain and so on, bear some resemblance to the Five Guards of the Northwest in Longzuo County.

However, compared to the scale of the grasslands in Southern Desert County, the grasslands in the Northwest Five Guards are insignificant, not even reaching one-tenth.

The current developmental strategy for both counties is for Longzuo Northwest Five Guards to reclaim land towards the southern desert, while Southern Desert County extends towards the Northwest Five Guards.

Coming like this hundreds or thousands of years later, Southern Desert County and Longzuo County will be connected by the prairie.

Since Southern Desert County has such a vast area of grassland, its industrial structure naturally focuses on animal husbandry, with farming and trade as supplements.

Although the soil on the prairie tends to be sandy and not fertile, and there are not many water sources from extensive river networks, it’s hard to become the granary of Great Qian like Longzuo County and Qing’an County.

But Southern Desert County is the largest meat producer and supplier of the finest horses in Great Qian, famed as the “nation’s meat warehouse”, “nation’s horse warehouse”.

At the same time, Southern Desert is rich in wool and leather, along with a variety of dairy products, making it the largest producer of leather and dairy products in Great Qian.

Through these related industries, both large and small prominent families in Southern Desert are living quite prolifically.

In terms of wealth, Southern Desert is only slightly inferior to Qing’an County.

As one of the first several counties developed in the early days of Great Qian, Southern Desert has a rather long history and is generally safe.

Along the way, both spirit bird flying carriages had a smooth journey heading north.

Looking down from the sky, the vast grasslands lush and verdant, like an emerald-green sea.

From time to time, groups of livestock, such as cattle, sheep, and horses, can be seen slowly moving on the grassland, grazing or running, a vision of tranquility and comfort.

The “Wang’s Large Pasture” that the Changning Wang Clan originally acquired from the Huangfu Clan can only be described as a drop in the ocean compared to the vast prairie of Southern Desert County.

Most prominent families own pastureland that is extremely expansive, even more than several times the land size owned by Longzuo County’s prominent families.

Although they do have main residences, they spend most of their time living on the pastureland.

However, such a scene is interesting at first, but after half a day, it feels monotonous and boring.

Wang Shouzhe quickly lost interest and turned his attention back to the journey.

Two days later, the spirit bird flying carriages had crossed numerous large pastures in the sky, and finally arrived at the county town of Southern Desert County.

The county town is built by the lake.

This is a gigantic prairie lake with a diameter of approximately one thousand miles.

The lake is not deep and freezes over completely in winter.

During this time, the entire lake’s surface glows under the sunlight, strikingly transparent like a bright pearl embedded in the prairie, hence its name – “Dong Cha Cha Lake”.

It is said that the lake was named based on the pronunciation of the tribal language of the barbarian tribes who initially lived here.

Southern Desert County town already has a history of over two thousand years.

The city walls are made with traditionally fired red giant bricks, towering over twenty meters high and several meters wide.

The city is set up with a huge defensive array.

Alongside the city’s army and advanced Purple Abode cultivators, it has even held off a level-eight beast tide before.
