Shi Tianhe spoke truthfully; the Central Region was indeed more dangerous than the Southern Territory.
In the past few centuries, the thirteen nations of the Southern Territory had enjoyed peace through a truce with the ten great demonic sects of the Western Wilderness.
However, the three great dynasties of the Central Region, with their countless sects and intertwined power structures, along with abundant resources and numerous ancient relics and treasures, often sparked all sorts of conflicts and ambushes, resulting in countless old powers being destroyed each year and just as many new powers rising.
In terms of strength, the Central Region was terribly formidable; the strongest entities in the whole Southern Territory and Western Wilderness were but fourth-tier sects with early-stage Heavenly Saint Realm experts, whereas the Central Region housed not only third-tier sects but even second-tier sects with late-stage Heavenly Saint Realm powerhouses!
