Capítulo 1998: Chapter 1997: Martial King Zhou, Sea Beasts
After the death of Old Tree, his body fell into the sea, eventually forming Immortal Island.
This is the legend.
Of course, there’s another part to the legend.
It’s said that the natives of Immortal Island all carry the bloodline of Old Tree, as his descendants.
No one knows if it’s true or false.
Because Old Tree has long been dead.
When Xu Zii and his companions erged from the teleportation array, they had already arrived at the entrance of Immortal Island.
The entire Immortal Island is extraordinarily vast.
It’s almost hard to imagine how large Old Tree’s body must have been when he was alive.
You can’t see the end with one glance.
The islands, lined up like a barrier in the vast sea, appear endless even if you take to the skies.
One cannot see the border of Immortal Island either.
All around the island, sturdy trees rise densely, forming thick jungles, with trees tall and thick-trunked.
However, a hundred ters from Immortal Island, an invisible barrier stands in the way.
Xu Zii looked at the barrier.
He realized this barrier was no trivial matter.
This barrier wasn’t simply arranged with spiritual energy; it’s connected to the entire trend of Immortal Island.
Countless creatures, millions of territories.
This is the grand trend of Immortal Island.
Although Xu Zii did not take action, he could sense that even if he attacked forcefully, it would be difficult to break through this barrier in a short ti.
“Interesting,” Xu Zii said.
“Taoist Friend Xu, do you have an identity token?” Suru Ancestor asked from the side.
“If not, we can find a way to bring you inside.”
Xu Zii shook his head.
He took out the token of Lu Ling’s father.
This is the key to entering and exiting Immortal Island.
Of course, just having the token isn’t enough; it also requires the blood of an island native.
Lu Ling bit his finger and dropped a drop of blood on the token.
In an instant, the token seed to co alive.
It rged into Xu Zii’s body.
At this mont, Xu Zii felt a sense of intimacy with the barrier before him.
This feeling was very special.
When Xu Zii touched the barrier again, he felt no discomfort and passed through it directly.
“The token lasts for ten minutes,” Lu Ling explained.
“During these ten minutes, you can pass through the barrier freely.”
“Who set up this barrier?”
Xu Zii asked with interest.
“The person who set this must be a genius.”
“It was set up by Old Tree,” Zhou Rusui, standing nearby, chid in.
“Just before Old Tree’s death, this strange barrier appeared.
Everyone says our Immortal Island is in a sealed state.
But actually, it’s not our choice.
We can’t even break through this barrier ourselves.”
Xu Zii nodded slightly, realizing it was related to Old Tree.
He was very interested in Old Tree.
His visit to Immortal Island this ti was for two things.
To find Old Tree or the whereabouts of the Inferior Corpse, and then revive Lin Ruhu.
And to find Gongsun Muya, to enable his Divine Continent to undergo a second transformation into a great world.
“Let’s go to your Hidden God Sect first,” Xu Zii said.
To find these people, he needed the help of the Stealth Sect; otherwise, without a foothold here, he wouldn’t know when he’d find them.
Suru Ancestor summoned the giant wheel.
The giant wheel didn’t fly in the sky but circulated the water, heading towards the interior of Immortal Island along the sea’s horizon.
Although Immortal Island is quite vast.
In reality, each area of the island is separated by sea channels split by the sea.
The giant wheel can reach anywhere on Immortal Island by navigating these channels.
After passing through the barrier, the giant wheel quickly entered Immortal Island.
Suru Ancestor knew it was Xu Zii’s first ti here.
He introduced, “The outside of Immortal Island is guarded by the Battle Body family.
In fact, ever since the existence of Immortal Island, the Battle Body family has been guarding it for generations.”
“What’s the purpose of guarding it?” Xu Zii asked.
“Is it to prevent outsiders from coming in?”
“Not at all,” Suru Ancestor shook his head.
And replied, “Every year, gigantic creatures from the sea attack our Immortal Island.
The task of the Battle Body family is to defend against them.”
“The Battle Body family is our Immortal Island’s first line of defense.”
“Since you’ve arrived on Immortal Island, you should know so things.”
“Unlike the intrigues and deceit of the outside world,
although our Immortal Island houses hundreds of forces, each one maintains harmonious relations.”
“Everyone works together to protect this island, our shared ho.”
Hearing this, Xu Zii found it even more interesting.
It’s fascinating to find a place where so many people leave behind their grudges and beco one family.
……
As they traveled through the channels of Immortal Island, Xu Zii noticed several figures standing on the shore.
One figure, in particular, was extraordinarily fast.
It descended from the sky like a missile.
The sound of a sonic boom echoed in his ears.
The extre friction brought a booming sound.
Soon after, the figure landed on the warship.
“Suru, you’re back?”
A hearty voice rang out with laughter.
A magnificent middle-aged man in a black and gold long robe walked over.
The manner in which he descended was straightforward and aggressive.
Suru Ancestor also smiled imdiately, and the two seed like old friends.
“Martial King, long ti no see.”
Martial King Zhou’s gaze landed on Xu Zii.
“Oh, is there a newcor?”
Suru Ancestor nodded with a smile and said, “He’s a distinguished guest of our Hidden God Sect.”
His words were a bit of a reminder, hinting to Martial King Zhou that the person before him was not to be trifled with.
Martial King Zhou was briefly stunned but quickly understood.
Expressing goodwill, he smiled at Xu Zii and said, “Let introduce myself, I am an elder of the Battle Body family.
Martial King Zhou!”
Xu Zii also introduced himself.
“How are the sea beasts recently?” Suru Ancestor asked proactively.
The sea beasts are eager to destroy Immortal Island, but that’s certainly impossible.
The entire human race of the island is on the defense, especially the Battle Body family, who takes the brunt.
“Not good, the third beast tide of the year is gathering again,” Martial King Zhou sighed.
“I estimate that in a month’s ti, the sea beasts will attack once more.
I’ve already spread the news, with the periter defenses now tight and reinforcents from other forces arriving gradually.
Just unsure of how many will die this ti.”
Hearing this, Suru Ancestor was visibly angry.
He slamd his right hand heavily beside him.
And snorted, “I really wish to slaughter them in their lair and exterminate all these sea beasts.”
“That’s impossible,” Martial King Zhou shook his head, also sighing.
“The sea beasts’ lair is three hundred million kiloters underground, and it’s impossible for our people to get in.
Only so strong ones can.
But it’s full of danger inside, and over the generations, those who entered never ca back alive.”
Suru Ancestor fell silent.
The atmosphere beca heavy for a mont.
