Bingdong!
Beyond the Antarctic ice wall lies an unknown land.
The enormous city, like a giant beast, sits atop the glacier.
It's hard to imagine what a massive undertaking it would be to build a city on a glacier.
In the world of China, there are also many miracles that are unprecedented and unparalleled.
The Great Wall of Xia, the Egyptian pyramids, and so on.
However, compared to the enormous city of Bingdong, it is nothing but a drop in the ocean.
That's right, this city is called Bingdong City.
Its history is so long that it is impossible to describe.
It is said that several civilizations have existed there.
That's right, several civilizations!
A civilization typically lasts about 36,000 years.
This Bingdong City is a relic left behind by a civilization from two previous eras.
The city remains, but its people come and go.
Over the course of hundreds of thousands of years, the people inside have changed several times, and civilizations have risen and fallen, but the city itself remains.
Despite several near-death experiences, it remains as solid as a rock.
This is Bingdong City.
There are five major families in the city.
Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, and Zhao.
These are all ancient Chinese surnames.
In reality, there is absolutely no connection between them.
Because these five surnames existed much, much earlier than the Warring States period.
These five families ruled Bingdong City for thousands of years.
This is the information Lin Yu obtained after arriving in Bingdong City and gathering information over the past few days.
Outside the city lies a boundless world of ice and snow.
Large numbers of migrants of different races came from all directions and gathered in Bingdong.
Some of them have fair skin and pointed ears, like elves.
Some have big heads and small eyes, resembling dwarfs.
These people are clearly not from the Chinese world.
They were people from other worlds outside of Bingwinter.
Jambudvipa consists of hundreds of worlds.
Not every place in the world has such a uniquely advantageous geographical location as China.
Beyond the Antarctic ice wall, the frigid temperatures, coupled with the towering walls of Winterfell, kept people from other worlds outside the city.
Therefore, none of these people from other worlds can set foot in China.
At this point, let's refrain from using the word 'world' for now.
Using the word "world" is not quite accurate; describing other worlds as "countries" and "civilizations" is more appropriate.
Because of different civilizations, there are different ideologies, and conflicts often break out between different countries.
This is inevitable. Even within the Chinese world, there are different ideologies: Eastern, Western, capitalist, and egalitarian. So this is quite normal.
Wherever there are people, there is a world of intrigue; wherever there is intrigue, there is resource plunder and struggle!
Because there are no geographical barriers between the kingdoms of Jambudvipa, conflicts frequently break out.
It was even common for them to destroy entire countries at the drop of a hat.
The result of war is that a large number of refugees are displaced.
At the same time, people in these countries know that the Chinese world is the only place in the last few thousand years where no war has broken out, and it is very safe because of its geographical advantages.
Therefore, some refugees would often come to the city of Bingdong, hoping that the city lord would open the city gates and take them in.
Initially, hundreds of years ago, Bingdong City would occasionally open its gates to accommodate some refugees.
However, later on, as the number of refugees taken in by Bingdong City increased, people of different races formed cliques, established their own power, and even launched attacks and challenges against the five major local families.
The five major families seemed to realize the problem; if things continued this way, there would likely be endless troubles in the future.
So, hundreds of years ago, they joined forces and launched an unprecedented annihilation campaign.
All the foreign tribes in the city were wiped out.
The massacre lasted for ten days, during which blood flowed like rivers and cries of agony filled the air.
Adhering to the principle of "better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free," all the local people who colluded with foreign tribes were also exterminated!
There were no traces of foreign races left in the entire city of Bingdong.
Since then, the five great families have issued another decree.
Those who are not of our kind will surely have different hearts; Winterfell will no longer accept refugees from any other world.
This crackdown operation was known as the 'Ten Days of Winter'!
This is a dark period of history, which has never been mentioned by later generations. Even some young people are completely unaware that this actually happened in history.
Although the actions of the five major families were cruel, they did indeed eliminate future troubles.
Since then, Bingdong City has remained Bingdong City. Although the five major families occasionally fight, they are mostly able to coexist peacefully.
Lin Yu had learned some things about these five major families while in the city.
These families are all extremely powerful; any one of them could easily rival the ancient martial arts and divine bloodlines.
Among them are many top experts at the Profound Realm. As for Martial Saints, needless to say, there are hundreds of them.
The reason for this is due to the unique geographical environment. Once outside the Antarctic ice wall, he could sense that the spiritual energy in the unknown land was much richer than that in China.
The world of China clearly shows signs of being artificially designed. While it is safe, humanity's inherent potential has been weakened, and cultivation resources are very limited. Therefore, most people are just ordinary individuals.
This Bingdong City is rich in spiritual energy, everyone values martial arts, and masters emerge one after another.
Although the city has been peaceful for hundreds of years.
But their sense of crisis seems to be ingrained in their bones, so they train their children to practice martial arts from a young age.
Even the old man selling fried pancakes would often sigh at the towering city wall.
"We never know whether tomorrow or an accident will come first!"
