The Queen of Scrolls never admits defeat

Chapter 579 The Edge of the World
[Vashida: Moran, thank goodness you left quietly. You have no idea how terrifying the looks Knotak has given the gourmet witches these past few days! When Igniva and I were fighting, he even came to watch and asked me if I knew how to make desert salt-baked giant scorpions.]

[Moran: After I land on the west coast of Valen Continent, I'll turn these dishes I researched for the dragons into gourmet cards and put them up for sale at the Dawn Academy. That'll shut him up.]

[Washida: Where are you now?]

[Moran: We're almost at the edge of Valencia.]

On all maps of the Valen Continent, Dragon Island and the Sacred Mountain Range, where Paradise Mountain is located, are situated on opposite sides of the ocean in the far east and on the land in the far west, respectively.

If it were a planet like Earth, one could travel east from Dragon Island all the way to Paradise Mountain on the west coast of the continent.

But Valen is a dimensional world, and dimensional worlds have an end.

The edge of the Valen world is an insurmountable gray fog, like a bubble enveloping Valen.

In theory, to get from Delicious Island to Paradise Mountain, she would have to travel west, crossing the entire continent.

However, the journey was too long, so Moran decided to try going to the edge of the world.

Bronze dragons possess a spell called "Fog Barrier Teleportation" upon reaching adulthood, which allows them to instantly teleport to any location within a fog barrier upon contact with it.

Moran had memorized the dragon language incantation for the fog teleportation and practiced it until he knew it by heart, so casting the spell was no problem at all.

Crossing the entire continent, from Delicious Island to Paradise Mountain, even flying at full speed on a flying carpet would take more than half a year to almost a year.

Use the fog barrier teleportation to fly from Delicious Island to the fog barrier at the eastern edge of the continent, then use the fog barrier teleportation again to reach the fog barrier at the western edge of the continent. It only takes one week.

This week was mostly spent traveling to Wuzhang.

After hearing Moran's plan, Vasida couldn't help but reply to her.

[Washida: So, when I go back to the Wilderness later, can I teleport directly from the eastern fog barrier to the southern fog barrier, and then return to the Wilderness?]

The Witch Wilderness is located at the southernmost part of the continent.

[Moran: Of course. But you need to practice the spell beforehand. If the fog teleportation goes wrong, you might get stuck deep inside the fog and unable to get out, or you might get stuck anywhere on the continent.]

The fog barrier is essentially formed by dense spatial power, and it is also the source of the spatial laws of the Valen continent.

If the transmission goes wrong, the danger is still very high.

[Washida: I understand!]

She still cherishes her life.

A few days later, at the edge of the world.

Moran looked at the seawater that was suddenly blocked by the gray-white mist-like spatial power, and immediately took out her camera to take pictures.

Even though she had read many books and seen descriptions and hand-drawn illustrations of the edge of the world and fog, she was still awestruck when she actually arrived here.

The fog is insurmountable, like a void wall standing at the edge of the world.

But the layers of waves crashing against the fog did not leave any trace of being blocked.

At first glance, it looks as if the seawater has surged into the fog.

In reality, countless predecessors have proven that non-living matter that comes into contact with the fog barrier is actually transported to other areas outside the fog barrier by the spatial power of the fog barrier.

So sometimes you can see the waves disappear into the fog, and sometimes you can see waves surging out from inside the fog.

The waves surging into the fog could appear at any edge of the fog, in any direction.

However, no matter how they are teleported, they will still be in the sea; they won't fall from the fog in the sky, nor will they appear in the fog below the abyss. But it's different for living things.

Like Moran, when she reached out to touch the fog barrier, it was not as unobstructed as the waves.

It felt like I had actually touched a gray, misty wall, and encountered some resistance.

However, the resistance is not great; it's soft and yields easily with a little effort.

However, Moran dared not do that, because once he actually entered the fog barrier, he would encounter a real random teleportation with spatial turbulence.

Even top-tier experts skilled in spatial magic can only ensure they are not harmed by the spatial turbulence within the fog barrier; they cannot control where they will be teleported next.

It's alright in the sea, but it would be troublesome if it were in a desperate situation like deep in the rock layer or in the lava abyss.

She wouldn't have come here if she hadn't learned the Bronze Dragon's Fog Barrier Teleportation.

She used her magic to walk on water, temporarily hovering on the sea surface. Then, she touched the mist, her magic transforming into dragon power, and chanted an incantation:

"SOL-KAARN! XHAROTH-NETH! FDHEWO-DWEIF! MORDHAK-ZYTH!"

The moment the incantation was finished, Moran felt an irresistible suction force pull her into the fog.

The next moment, it was spat out by something and had a close encounter with the seawater.

Moran surfaced and threw out a flying carpet to climb up.

Looking at the map in the flying carpet's automatic flight path function, she saw that she was now at the edge of the world in Valencia, exactly as she had predicted.

Behind her was a gray fog, and in front of her was a calm sea.

Clearly, the storms from the eastern edge of the world were not transmitted here by the fog barrier.

The flying carpet traveled westward for a day and a night, and Moran finally saw the outline of the continent.

Before she even reached the shore, she could clearly feel that the concentration of light elements had increased, and the closer she got to the land, the more concentrated the light elements became.

These are all effects brought about by Paradise Mountain.

When the Gods descended, other races came to Valen and then seized territory, recuperated, and developed their power.

Only the angels descend with their own territory.

The entire Paradise Mountain is made up of foreign elements.

Upon arrival, they chose the highest point on the entire continent, placing Paradise Mountain atop the highest peak of Valen, Tianzhu Mountain, and renamed it the Gate of Heaven.

It was set up as the entrance to Paradise Mountain.

The abundant light elements of Paradise Mountain surged out from the Gate of Heaven, spreading to the surrounding mountain range and gradually changing the local geography.

The angels then named this nameless mountain range the Sacred Mountain Range.

In the past, when the Temple of Light of Angels was popular all over the continent, the Sacred Mountains were the blessed land of the God of Light. Only the most devout believers could live in the Sacred Mountains and enjoy the blessings of the gods.

However, later, the God of Light was proven to be a fraud, and after the angels gave up spreading their faith in Valen, people realized that the Sacred Mountains were simply a place with abundant light elemental power, producing magical plants and beasts with light attributes.

Only a few intelligent races, who still depend on the angels but are not allowed to live in the Heavenly Mountains, continue to reside in the sacred mountains.

Occasionally, you can also see angels flying down from Paradise Mountain to play here.
