Immortal God of War
Chapter 1085 - 1022: Devil Island, the Great Enemy Approaches!
Roar!!!
Splash!!!
Inner sea, southwestern direction.
In the sky above a stretch of sea, one sea beast after another roared furiously, some as large as mountains, others as small as rocks, emitting a formidable, overwhelming presence.
Below, the sea waves surged tumultuously, deafeningly!
Their fierce eyes were all fixed on the gigantic ship below.
It was the Saint King Vessel!
At the bow, Wang Youer stood against the wind, her skin like ice and her bones like jade, her hair fluttering, like a fairy about to ride the wind and depart.
Qin Feiyang, Young Master Hao, and Wang Zicheng were sitting nearby in quiet cultivation.
It had been five days since they snatched Viper One.
During these five days, apart from the harassment of various sea beasts, it had been relatively peaceful.
The Saint King Vessel had also entered the depths of the inner sea.
According to Wang Zicheng, they were only two days away from the location of the Dan Fire.
And the number of sea beasts they encountered was increasing.
Roar!
Accompanied by earth-shattering roars, sea beasts from all directions charged towards the Saint King Vessel.
But Wang Youer remained unfazed, not even sparing a glance, steering the Saint King Vessel rapidly forward.
Buzz!
Boom boom boom!
As the sea beasts approached, a light curtain suddenly appeared around the Saint King Vessel.
Immediately after,
those sea beasts were sent flying one after another.
The Saint King Vessel was a Holy Artifact, unless an emperor beast appeared, no one could intrude upon this forbidden zone and harm Qin Feiyang and the others.
After an hour passed.
Wang Youer suddenly looked towards the sea on the left and said in a low voice, "There’s an island there."
The three of Qin Feiyang opened their eyes and looked up.
Indeed, a few miles away, there was an island, very large, estimated to be fifty or sixty miles in diameter, but it was barren, full of chaotic rocks.
And in the center of the island, there was a huge rock, emitting a dark red light all over, like a blood-stained demon sword, piercing into the sky!
Wang Zicheng’s pupils slightly contracted, and he said in a low tone, "Don’t approach that island."
"Is there something wrong?"
Young Master Hao asked, confused.
"Yes."
"That island is called Devil Island, and no creature that enters it has ever survived, it’s one of the three ferocious places in the inner sea."
Wang Zicheng said.
"That dangerous?"
The three of Qin Feiyang were shocked.
"Yes."
"It’s said that Devil Island harbors a mysterious power that robs creatures of their life force and lifespan."
"And once you enter, it’s like entering a prison, you can’t come out again."
"Don’t think I’m exaggerating."
"Once, I personally saw a Two-star War Emperor, thinking he was powerful, ignore his companions’ advice and break into Devil Island."
"As a result, his lifespan was slowly drained by that mysterious power until he died in despair."
Wang Zicheng said in a deep voice.
The three of Qin Feiyang looked at each other.
Even a War Emperor couldn’t make it out alive, that’s terrifying!
"If you don’t believe, you can go closer and see, the island is full of human and sea beast remains."
Wang Zicheng said.
Young Master Hao asked, "Is it dangerous to get close?"
Wang Zicheng shook his head and said, "As long as you don’t step onto the island, there’s no danger to your life."
Young Master Hao got excited, turned to Wang Youer, and said, "Big sister, let’s go take a look."
"The calf that fears no tiger!"
Wang Youer shook her head, and with a thought, the Saint King Vessel slowly turned and headed towards Devil Island.
Seeing the Saint King Vessel head towards Devil Island, the pursuing sea beasts stopped in the void.
The fierce light in their eyes instantly turned to terror.
Thud!!!
Immediately after,
they disappeared into the sea one after another.
Watching the sea beasts’ reaction, Qin Feiyang’s eyes flickered, seems this Demon Island is indeed not a friendly place.
Very soon,
the Saint King Vessel arrived in front of Devil Island, separated by only half a league.
Wang Youer dared not approach any closer, stopping the Saint King Vessel.
And here, not a single sea beast came to disturb them.
To be precise, the sea around Devil Island was devoid of any fierce beasts.
Apart from the sound of the wind and waves, it was deathly silent.
Wang Zicheng stood up, glanced at Devil Island, and reminded once again, "Don’t venture in with any hopeful thoughts."
Actually, he didn’t need to remind them, the three of Qin Feiyang dared not enter either.
Because they could already see the remains on Devil Island.
Everywhere their eyes could reach was piled high with bones, beyond the term ’monstrous.’
It was a mountain of corpses and sea of bones.
A hellish Asura!
Sending shivers down the spine!
Suddenly,
Qin Feiyang seemed to think of something, turned to Wang Zicheng, and said, "You just mentioned the island has a mysterious power that can rob creatures of their life force and lifespan?"
"Yes."
Wang Zicheng nodded.
Qin Feiyang said, "And you said Devil Island is like a cage, you can enter but can’t exit?"
"Correct."
Wang Zicheng nodded again.
Qin Feiyang looked at Devil Island again, a look of doubt in his eyes.
He thought of the Black Dragon Glacier.
If what Wang Zicheng said is true, then this place is identical to the Black Dragon Glacier.
Wang Youer suddenly looked to the side and said in surprise, "Hey, look, there’s another island over there."
Qin Feiyang and Young Master Hao looked up.
About a couple of miles away from Devil’s Island, there was indeed another island, but it was much smaller than Devil’s Island, only about five or six miles in size.
On the island, the traces of trees and sea beasts could faintly be seen.
Young Master Hao exclaimed, "Brother Wang, could that island also be a ferocious island?"
"How could there be so many ferocious islands?"
"It’s just a very ordinary little island, inhabited by some sea beasts."
"However, there used to be a ruin on that island, but we’ve already cleared it out."
Wang Zicheng said with a sly smile.
Qin Feiyang asked, "Are there many ruins in the inner sea?"
"Of course, there are many."
"Especially beneath the deep sea; if lucky, you can discover one in half a year."
"But powerful emperor beasts lurk in the deep sea, and most people don’t dare to venture down."
"Sometimes I go down on a whim to search."
Wang Zicheng said.
Qin Feiyang nodded.
Wang Zicheng’s words revealed a very important piece of information.
Emperor beasts generally lurk beneath the deep sea.
In other words.
Emperor beasts rarely appear on the sea surface; as long as you don’t enter the deep sea floor, you basically won’t encounter any deadly danger.
Wang Zicheng said, "Don’t waste any more time, let’s hurry along!"
Wang Youer nodded and steered the Saint King Vessel, continuing to head southwest.
Qin Feiyang kept paying attention to Devil’s Island, with an imperceptible strange light flickering deep in his eyes.
And just after the Saint King Vessel sailed away, a figure suddenly shot out from the small island next to Devil’s Island.
It was a disheveled old man, over fifty, wearing a tattered black robe, and holding a worn snake-headed staff.
The black-robed old man watched the Saint King Vessel from a distance, with eyes hidden under his hair emitting a green and eerie light, giving a cold sensation like those of a snake.
And at his brow was also a viper tattoo, just like the One-Eyed Dragon’s.
"Heh heh!"
"Finally found you all."
Suddenly.
The black-robed old man chuckled lowly, appearing quite sinister, then took out an Image Crystal Stone.
Buzz!
Soon.
The virtual image of a stunning woman emerged.
The stunning woman asked, "Black Snake, any news?"
The black-robed old man replied, "News indeed, they’re near Devil’s Island, likely heading to Blood Dragon Island."
"Isn’t Blood Dragon Island the place where the Pill Fire was born? It seems they’re all going for that Pill Fire."
The stunning woman said.
The black-robed old man nodded.
"Alright, wait there for me, I’ll meet up with you shortly."
After the stunning woman finished speaking, the image swiftly dissipated.
About a hundred breaths later, the stunning woman descended over the sea area near Devil’s Island.
Accompanying her were over two hundred burly men, all looking fierce, full of bandit-like aura.
And at their brows, there was a viper tattoo imprinted.
Clearly.
They were all Black Snake’s subordinates.
Rumble!
Then.
The stunning woman waved her hand, and a giant ship appeared out of nowhere, landing on the sea below, stirring up huge waves.
The giant ship’s shape and size were identical to the "Viper One," also exuding a terrifying Saint Prestige.
The only difference was the flag on the mast, imprinted with the word "Two."
"Move!"
The stunning woman waved her hand, leading the group of burly men to land on the deck of the giant ship one after another.
Then the stunning woman glanced around and quickly spotted the black-robed old man standing above the island.
The stunning woman shouted, "Black Snake, where are your people?"
The black-robed old man chuckled wickedly, waved his withered hand, and another giant ship soared from the canyon of the island below.
That giant ship was also identical to the Viper One, the only difference being the flag on the mast, imprinted with the word "Three."
And standing on that giant ship was a group of people, all exuding fierce hostility, clearly not the kind of people to mess with.
The black-robed old man leapt to the bow of the ship, then piloted the giant ship, descending to the sea surface, speeding towards the stunning woman.
After the two groups met, the black-robed old man immediately looked at the stunning woman and said disdainfully, "That One-Eyed Dragon was really useless, not only did he lose his life, but he also lost the Viper One."
"What do you mean by that?"
The stunning woman asked suspiciously.
"I just saw them with my own eyes."
"Two Nine-Star War Saints, one one-star War Saint, and one Two-Star War Emperor. With such cultivation, what kind of storm could they possibly stir up?"
The black-robed old man sneered.
"So weak?"
The stunning woman was surprised, then continued puzzled, "Since they’re so weak, how did the One-Eyed Dragon die?"
The black-robed old man replied, "He must have let his guard down and got wasted by Wang Zicheng."
"Makes sense."
"After all, Wang Zicheng is capable of unleashing forbidden techniques, just not at will."
The stunning woman nodded, pondering.
"Exactly."
"Faced with life and death, Wang Zicheng certainly wouldn’t sit and wait for death, so when we catch up with them later, we can’t be as careless as the One-Eyed Dragon."
The black-robed old man said.
The stunning woman coldly smiled, "You don’t need to tell me that, I know."
"Then let’s set off!"
The black-robed old man’s eyes flashed with cold light, and the giant ship beneath him immediately turned into a stream of light, breaking through the waves.
The stunning woman also piloted the giant ship, right beside the black-robed old man.
