When Ye Luo opened his eyes and saw the scene before him, he was immediately stunned!

Oh my god, why are we still on Divine Spirit Island? Could it be that the Island Master is playing a joke on us?

The Saintess and the Princess beside him naturally widened their eyes in confusion, looking at the Island Master.

However, the expressions on the Island Master’s face and the Elders were equally bewildered; clearly, they didn’t know what had happened either.

"Damn, I didn’t expect them to seal off the surrounding space. It seems they’re targeting the back mountain!" The Island Master’s expression became serious.

Of course, Ye Luo and his companions were not concerned about the danger of Divine Spirit Island; what they wanted was to teleport out!

"Island Master, should we try again?" Li Ba suggested.

The Island Master shook his head as he gazed at the sky, "It’s useless. I thought we had more time, but I didn’t expect them to act so quickly. Not only can you not teleport out, but the tens of thousands of islanders on Divine Spirit Island are all trapped as well!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Luo realized the severity of the situation. It seemed all of this was the work of that monster!

"Maybe this is fate!" the Princess said with a bitter smile.

Who could have thought that after several days of effort, this would be the result?

Ye Luo and his group had no choice but to return to their dwelling, while the Island Master and Elders disappeared, apparently seeking a solution, ignoring Ye Luo and the others.

Returning to their dwelling, seeing familiar places, they all felt a sense of things and people changing.

"Are we really going to be buried here?" Li Ba’s expression was somewhat dazed, and Ye Luo knew he wasn’t worried about his own safety but about his sister.

"Everything must be fought for ourselves. I think the monster’s target is not us. If we work hard, there might be hope for escape!" Ye Luo squinted his eyes.

In fact, teleporting out isn’t impossible! As long as Ye Luo is willing to pay a price, it’s still achievable!

For example, forcibly elevating his realm! As long as he reaches the Heavenly Martial Realm, his Dinghai Pearl should be able to cross the outer barrier. Of course, it would certainly teleport to the ocean, and without the young girl, they’re not necessarily safe there.

Moreover, the cost would be damage to vitality and talent! Overall, it’s still very unwise.

"Indeed, I must get out. My sister is still waiting for me!" Li Ba clenched his fist and said determinedly.

"May I come in?" the Princess suddenly asked from outside the door.

"Of course you can!" the Saintess replied with a smile, knowing that the Princess was now Ye Luo’s woman too, and no matter how jealous she was, she had to accept this reality.

More importantly, she felt that the Princess was a woman who valued relationships, which she admired greatly.

Besides, they had something in common in that they both took many measures before. Now, thinking about it, they couldn’t help but sigh, creating a natural bond of mutual respect and shared feelings between the two, which gradually brought them closer together.

"You arrived just in time; help us analyze the current situation!" In urgent times, Ye Luo became calmer.

"Alas, who would have thought things would develop to this point!"

Then, the Princess slowly began to speak.

As she had been working for that monster for several years, she was privy to some of the monster’s secrets.

That monster is a symbiotic organism, one half being an ancient ferocious beast known as the Insect King. Even in ancient times, its vicious reputation was widespread, and nowadays in the Martial Realm, it has virtually vanished, yet here in the Sixth Region, one has emerged.

And the Divine Soul, naturally from the ancient period, was the person who tamed this beast, but he is definitely not its master. The beast cannot accept a master, and this person and the beast became a symbiotic pair!

In other words, these two life forms share life! If one perishes, the other cannot survive!

But there is a benefit; cultivation progresses extremely quickly!

Of course, there are many secrets the Princess doesn’t know; she couldn’t understand them all, for while the monster let her work, that doesn’t mean it fully trusted her.

One point is that since ancient times, these two life forms were injured and have been lurking in the ocean, accidentally discovered by the Princess’s grandfather. They immediately killed her grandfather, occupied his body, stole his memories, and returned to Divine Spirit Island.

This is what led to subsequent events! Of course, some parts of this are purely the Princess’s speculation.

But one thing she was sure of: through absorbing Divine Souls, these two life forms could merge into one! Only by merging together could they become a true ancient ferocious beast! In other words, right now the two life forms are separated, making them incomplete, with greatly affected talents and powers!

But to achieve this is extremely difficult! Therefore, they prepared for several years.

According to the Princess, during this period, they absorbed Divine Souls from thousands of people, who were then seeded by the beast!

If these seeds fully erupted, one can imagine what the situation in the Sixth Region would be like.

Of course, Ye Luo’s main concern was their safety.

Upon understanding, the Princess confirmed that the only thing capable of combating the monster in the back mountain was the Sea Spirit Pearl!

This is not only a treasure of Divine Spirit Island but a treasure of the ocean, and with this Sea Spirit Pearl, Divine Spirit Island can rank among the top ten overseas powers!

"Unfortunately, the current Island Master cannot control even a fraction of the Sea Spirit Pearl. The ability to activate the Sea Spirit Pearl’s power is naturally minimal, making it practically impossible to fend off the beast!" the Princess said.

This left Ye Luo speechless as he understood that some things entirely depend on opportunities, and forcing refinement could sometimes lead to counterproductive results.

Dong dong!

While they were discussing, the back mountain’s bell suddenly tolled.

Whenever the bell tolls, it signifies a major event, often a moment of life and death for Divine Spirit Island.

Upon hearing the bell, the disciples from the surrounding peaks, like locusts, flew towards the main peak.

"Let’s go and see. Since we’re staying, if we have strength, we must contribute. After all, if the back mountain falls, we fall too!" Ye Luo sighed.

Then, they proceeded towards the main peak as well.

The square at the main peak was extremely vast, capable of accommodating tens of thousands, but at the moment, it was already crowded with disciples of Divine Spirit Island. However, in terms of disciples, there were only a few thousand, with more being their family members and servants.
