1196: Chapter 1196: The Strange Formation of Misty Island 1196: Chapter 1196: The Strange Formation of Misty Island After enduring a siege of sea beasts and the test of heaven and earth’s might for more than a dozen hours, the martial artists aboard the sea vessel had greatly strengthened their ntal resilience.
During the thousands of miles of sea journey that followed, although the ship encountered several large-scale attacks by sea beasts, the martial artists united as one, bringing the situation under control.
Now, the only one on the ship who hoped for stormy weather again was Dongfang Ruhua.
Every day, she would run to the ship’s deck multiple tis, looking up into the sky in all directions, muttering to herself, “Thunder and lightning, follow my wishes, appear quickly…”
However, day after day passed with a tranquil sea under a clear sky.
Dongfang Ruhua was deeply disappointed, but the other martial artists were overjoyed, hoping to safely reach Shenwu Continent just like this.
“We are approaching Misty Island now.”
One morning, Wu Rongshan stood on the ship’s lookout post, peering into the distance where mist was spreading, and loudly addressed the gathered martial artists on deck: “Our ship will stop at Mist Island Port for one day to resupply.
If any of you need to exchange cultivation resources, feel free to go ashore and take a look at the Martial Artists Trading Market on the island.”
“Steward Wu, what kind of place is Misty Island?”
Dongfang Ruhua looked up at Wu Rongshan, asking curiously.
Although Dongfang Ruhua was young and only at the initial stage of the Vast Level, Wu Rongshan respected her due to her close relationship with Fang Bai.
He smiled and replied, “Miss Dongfang, Misty Island is an island on the Purgatory Sea, and it is a necessary stop for ships from Tiansheng Continent heading to Shenwu Continent.
Ships from Tiansheng Continent that pass by Misty Island almost always dock at its port for replenishnt.”
Dongfang Ruhua uttered an “Oh” and continued to ask, “Is Misty Island very big?
Does it have permanent residents?”
Wu Rongshan said, “Misty Island is roughly a thousand square miles, quite a large island indeed!
There are about ten thousand permanent residents on the island…”
Dongfang Ruhua remarked, “A thousand square miles with only about ten thousand people doesn’t seem too crowded!”
Wu Rongshan said, “The population might be small, but don’t underestimate those ten thousand people.
They have moved there from various places in the True Martial Realm, and each person’s strength is incredibly powerful.
It is said that the majority are Cosmic Level Experts, and there might even be Universe Level Experts.
The most critical point is that the island’s residents are very unified.
No matter what happens, they always stick together…”
“Just think about it, nearly ten thousand unified Cosmic Level Experts—how powerful is such a force?
Anyway, it’s much stronger than any second-level Sect, and it is not outclassed compared to first-level Sects!
As a result, for many years, countless ships have passed by Misty Island, yet no one dares to cause trouble on the island!”
As Wu Rongshan said this, he glanced towards the dense fog ahead, his eyes reflecting a look of reverence.
“Wow, that’s amazing!”
Dongfang Ruhua stuck out her little tongue and blinked her big eyes, her pretty face expressing astonishnt.
Before this, the strongest sect Dongfang Ruhua had witnessed was Green Bamboo Stronghold, a second-level Sect.
Even Green Bamboo Stronghold only had a dozen or so Cosmic Level Experts.
But on Misty Island, nearly ten thousand Cosmic Level Experts were gathered—how terrifying must their collective strength be?
“Steward Wu, are there any fun places on Misty Island?
I heard the scenery on the island is extrely beautiful!”
Zhuge Lian asked.
Having spent her childhood within the Sect, Zhuge Lian seldom ventured out for training.
Free from the Sect on this occasion and accompanying Fang Bai in the search for her mother, she felt like a bird released from its cage, her mood soaring.
Moreover, being a girl of rely seventeen or eighteen, naturally playful at heart, the thought of Misty Island hanging isolated in the sea, untouched and undisturbed by the rest of the world, and ho to a handful of powerful residents, undoubtedly made it seem like a paradisiac refuge, sparking an endless longing in her.
Wu Rongshan nodded and said, “In the area of Misty Island, the sea is azure and the sky is blue, filled with abundant Essence Energy.
The island is surrounded by green mountains and clear waters, with a variety of Spiritual dicines planted everywhere – the scenery is indeed extrely beautiful!
But if we’re talking about fun places… for us Martial Artists, naturally it’s the Martial Artists Trading Market on the island!”
Zhuge Lian said, “The Martial Artists Trading Market is nothing more than a place for Martial Artists to exchange or trade Cultivation Resources, not interesting… not interesting…”
Wu Rongshan smiled and said, “Ordinary Cultivation Resources may not intrigue Miss Zhuge, but… there are high-grade Frostflower Grass, Blood Jade Vine, Purple Bamboo Leaves, and even Beauty Ganoderma available there… I wonder if Miss Zhuge might be interested?”
Zhuge Lian’s eyes shone brighter as Wu Rongshan ntioned those varieties of Spiritual dicine.
She had heard of them, and they were known for their excellent benefits to a woman’s appearance.
Especially the Beauty Ganoderma, which is the main ingredient for crafting Youth Retaining Pills.
These pills can preserve a woman’s youth and prevent aging of her face.
If Misty Island truly has high-grade Beauty Ganoderma, it would surely drive countless won of the True Martial Realm insane with desire.
While everyone was talking, the sea ship entered the foggy area ahead, slowing down and proceeding gently.
The dense fog surrounding Misty Island is said to form naturally, existing all year round.
Wu Rongshan and others had grown accustod to seeing the pervasive and lingering mist every ti they passed through this sea area near Misty Island.
Moreover, sea ships that usually pass by Misty Island are commonly equipped with a compass to guide their way, ensuring that they don’t lose their sense of direction.
However, in Fang Bai’s eyes, the thick fog was not actual fog but an illusion created by a massive Illusory Formation.
Perhaps the person who initially set up this Illusory Formation did not want the existence of this secluded island to be discovered, to avoid disturbing the peace.
However, for so reason, this island has now beco a well-known waypoint for sea ships traversing the Purgatory Sea.
Fang Bai deduced that whoever set up such a vast Formation must be at least an Array Master with Innate Cultivation Level, and it would require tens of millions of Essence Stones and at least several months or even years to succeed.
This Formation, established by an Innate Expert, would naturally be inscrutable to ordinary Martial Artists.
However, for Fang Bai, breaking this Formation to disperse the fog is not a difficult task; it would only take so ti and effort.
Fang Bai wasn’t sure if the Innate Expert who created the Formation lived on Misty Island, but if they did, he was quite keen on eting them.
After all, Innate Experts are the pinnacle of the Martial Dao in this world, and Fang Bai held a great deal of interest in them.
He pondered that once an Innate Expert takes one more step forward, they would reach Foundation Establishnt, marking the beginning of a new Martial Dao Realm.
Engaging with Innate Experts could provide insights into the Cultivation World, known as the Three Thousand Great Worlds – the place of Fang Bai’s past life.
However, Fang Bai bore no malice towards the inhabitants of Misty Island and had no intention of disrupting the Formation.
He simply stood on the sea ship, exerting all his might to release his Divine Sense, exploring the surroundings, and hoping to detect the presence of so Innate Experts.
