Dyon's eyes left Malthor for a moment, sweeping over his Demon Generals. Seeing their disheveled appearances, a deep seeded killing intent wafted from him. If Thadius saw his wives, River and Ronica, in this sort of state, there's no doubt he would lay waste to this entire city.

"Ava, how many Danger Zones does this city have control over?" Dyon suddenly asked.

Danger Zones were both heavenly training grounds and places ripe with resources. There were some areas with battle scars of long fought battles, other areas with rare abyssal cores, and still yet other areas with precious minerals and spiritual ingredients.

However, all of these Danger Zones of course had a level of danger associated with them. While studying the battle scars of sword masters could greatly improve your sword will, it was also possible for latent sword qi to shatter your soul. At the same time, while it was possible to find precious minerals and spiritual ingredients, it was practically guaranteed that they'd be protected by powerful beasts.

That said, though, Danger Zones were the symbol of power for any strong hold, not to mention a great source of income. By forcing those not under your flag to pay a certain fee to enter your Danger Zones, one could imagine how easy it would be to acc.u.mulate energy stones.

As the seventh ranked quadrant, there was no question that the Enigmatic Sect controlled quite a few Danger Zones on every tier. One had to remember that the resources garnered on the celestial and dao floors were incredibly important to a sect's foundation. Knowing this, how could the 7th ranked quadrant not invest properly in controlling them?

"Low Enigmatic City controls a territory of 13 Bronze Danger Zones and 3 Silver Danger Zones." Ava responded despite not knowing what Dyon was getting at.

Every celestial tier had exactly 999 static Danger Zones. This essentially meant that no matter the day or time you enter, these 999 static Danger Zones would always be here. These were the kind of Danger Zones that could be claimed and controlled.

That said, the ownership of Danger Zones was incredibly fluid. Some of the more volatile ones changed ownership every other month. Only incredibly powerful Clans and Sects could maintain power for extended periods of time. In fact, this fluidity was often decided by key wielders. Key wielders had special rights and were thus in better position to protect in comparison to a normal powerful individual. This was why the Water Mist Sect had such strict rules about when their key could be passed on.

This aside, with the existence of static danger zones, there were, of course, dynamic danger zones. These were Danger Zones that appeared and disappeared. Some dynamic danger zones had a set cycle that could be timed and managed. However, there were also some that appeared and disappeared at will without rhyme or reason.

In truth, the Ancient Battlefield was the most enigmatic of all dynamic danger zones. This wasn't only because its appearance was erratic, but also because it didn't care for a person's cultivation when it did appear. Anyone, whether dao expert, celestial, or even saint, could enter as long as they were Kings as a minimum.

In fact, even this King rule was tossed out for some. After all, the outer quadrants participated in its appearance as well… It was truly an enigma no one could understand.

The last important point about Danger Zones were their ranks. Static danger zones came in three tiers: bronze, silver, and gold. There were 900 bronze danger zones, 90 silver, and just 9 gold. One could see how valuable gold danger zones were considering even the Enigmatic Sect wasn't qualified to control one!

"Is that so?" Dyon smiled. "The Sacharro Clan will be taking control of all of your danger zones. You have two options. The first is to fight me and leave half dead. Or, you can make the smarter decision and simply leave now. The choice is yours."

When Ava heard Dyon's words she simply left his arms and smiled, falling backward. In that moment, not just her, but the other five also felt a keen sense of security. Since Dyon had said he'd do it, he could do it!

The crowd s.u.c.k.e.d in a cold breath. The matters of City Strongholds and Danger Zones wasn't as simple as a squabble between the younger generation. Although even behemoth-like Clans allowed their youths to fight and earn these things, no one doubted how important it was to a Clan as a whole. If Dyon suddenly seized all of the Enigmatic Sect's territory in the lower tier, even their secluded elders would hear about it!

Malthor stared at Dyon, trying to gauge whether it was serious or not. Surprisingly, his immediate reaction wasn't unbridled anger.

"How funny." He suddenly said. "First your people steal like a bunch of beggars, and now their leader comes to steal as well."

Dyon waved his arm, stopping those behind him from protesting.

"Wrong. I didn't come to steal, I've come to take. For your words today, not only will Low Enigmatic City lose its Danger Zones on this tier, I'll be taking this Stronghold as well.

"It just so happens that one of my rewards is the right to claim a territory that disallows outside attacks for five years. I've decided that I'll be taking this one."
