Cloud fell silent upon listening to Tyrone's words. It was clear that he was being weighed down by his troubles.
Jared asked quizzically, "What sort of sect is Cosmic Sect? Also, what is the Night Sea? Why would there be magical
items?"
When he saw the puzzled look on Jared's face, Yuven explained, "Cosmic Sect is a sect based on the mainland of
the eastern region that runs a transportation business with airships. As for the Night Sea, it's a vast ocean that is as
black as the night, hence the name. It's extremely mysterious as any aircraft that flies over it might crash for no
reason. Even demon beasts can't fly over it! Rumor has it that it was the site of an ancient battlefield during the
Celestial Battle. Back then, the battle was so brutal that people believed the Night Sea was formed from the blood
shed by cultivators and their souls. That is why it has become a no-fly zone, and aircraft are banned from flying

Blown away by Yuven's explanation, Jared probed further, "The mainland of the eastern region? What is that
place?"
Yuven replied, "Mr. Chance, the eastern region consists of a huge mainland located on the eastern part of the
Ethereal Realm. Ethereal Realm is divided into five regions, the northern, eastern, southern, western, and central
regions. Just like the three kings and four archons of the beast race and the various demon leaders, human
cultivators are spread across various mainlands that are divided into regions.
Each of the five regions is ruled by their respective governors. The northern region governor is in charge of this
region which we're in. It's just that the Ethereal Realm covers an expansive territory where many of the regions
intersect. This is where many conflicts between the different parties are sparked."
Yuven added, "For example, Stellaris Sect and Cosmic Sect are in conflict with each other due to their overlapping
interest, resulting in the incident you've just heard. However, the governor doesn't interfere in such trivial matters.
Only large-scale conflicts or the resurgence of demons leading to chaos on the mainland would cause the governor
to send men to suppress it. In the event they failed, he would then deal with it personally. To be honest, I've never
seen any of the governors in the last hundred years and not heard about them making an appearance. With time,
people have even begun to forget their existence. In spite of that, the borders of the five regions still remain, and
from what we can see, Cosmic Sect has come out of their turf to steal Stellaris Sect's airship business!"
Jared was awed after listening to Yuven describe Ethereal Realm's governance structure. He had not expected to
learn about the existence of governors.
After giving it some thought, however, he didn't find it surprising. Given how massive the Ethereal Realm was, it
would have long been destroyed by anarchy if some semblance of structure had not been imposed upon it.
However, Jared wondered if the governors of the five regions really existed since they had. not shown themselves

"Do you know what the governors' cultivation levels are?"
Jared was curious as to how powerful those who ruled over such a huge territory were.
Shaking his head, Yuven answered, "I don't know. I've not seen or heard of them before. In fact, I've not even heard
of anyone who has seen the governors fight. I have a feeling that they've achieved Immortal Realm. People like
them dislike getting involved in worldly affairs and are probably more concerned with ascending to heaven. After
all, the problems of the common man are nothing to real immortals."
"Immortal Realm..." Jared fell into deep thought. He couldn't fathom the extent of one's terrifying power at that
level.
Silence descended upon the airship. Cloud looked out the window solemnly. He had never felt such pressure before.
