YM778.TV Chapter 201 - Forbidden Island
50 for an entire powerhouse and another 50 for the participants?
If this condition was presented by some ordinary sect, perhaps many would voice out their complaints and definitely not agree to it. After all, taking half of the said treasures for one\'s self is too over the board.
Unfortunately, it was the Sea Ancient Race. They were the strongest powerhouse of the entire Sea Continent, overseeing everything. With seven alive Immortal Emperors, who would dare offend them and disagree? Besides, if not for the first three Immortal Emperors ascending, they might have a full 10 Immortal Emperors residing the ancient race! Anyone with a bit of brain would already know that it\'s not a good choice to offend something this terrifyingly powerful.
Although the Sea Princess had said this, there were still some seniors who weren\'t convinced. They felt that there was something more than meets the eye. They just could not determine what is it. But it was certain that they were hiding something. With the strength of the ancient race, why would they need the power of tons of cultivators under them?
"And since I already said my piece, I will wait for everyone at the entrance of the Forbidden Island. Everyone is welcome to try their luck there! But of course, please be advised to bring at least an Immortal with you to ensure your safety. But Immortal Emperor is better." The Sea Princess smiled once again before turning her back. After which, a glint of wickedness flashed right through her eyes. However, no one had noticed it.
Soon, the majestic palanquin along with the 10 figures disappeared out of thin air and everyone began to disperse. They must immediately prepare for the trip to the island.
"Young Master Jin, it seems like your luck is good this time." Lang Zing said. If many people will come venture the island, then it would increase their chance of survival. And with the free entrance in 2 days, Jin Rou no longer needed to talk to the Sea Ancient Race regarding his matters and he could just proceed.
"Mnm." Jin Rou nodded. It would save him less trouble and whatnot. However, he could not help but frown. The entire happenings were strange to the point that even he could sense a conspiracy being brewed. So he asked Lang Zing, "What do you know about the ancient race?"
"From what I know, they are the race who\'s like they are humans, however, at the same they\'re not. They\'re living in the very deep part of the sea and it remained a mystery even until now. Since they\'re conducting their business above the sea, and they would immediately disappear in the thin void, no one even the Immortal Emperors knew the exact location of their place." Lang Zing explained, "Why are you asking this by the way?"
Hearing that there was no more clue that he could get, Jin Rou dropped the topic, "Nothing. Let\'s go, we will set forth towards the Forbidden Island."
---
2 days later.
Many sea ships could be seen in the outside part of an island that was desolate enough to give off an uncomfortable vibe. And this island was the most restricted place of all time in Grivexia, the Forbidden Island.
Even if one had yet to enter, there was a certain feeling of being suffocated, making one hard to breathe. It was filled with dark aura as if a demon was looming around the place. What\'s more, there were no living things that could be seen by the eyes. All of the trees withered and there were tons of bones, particularly human bones, in the entrance of this place. Many juniors sweat profusely and thought if coming here was the right decision.
"This is one scary place..." Lang Zing could not help but mutter. The aura of the island was intimidating enough even for an Immortal Emperor. What\'s more for someone like him who had low cultivation?
Jin Rou did not say anything, but he was calm like a peaceful ocean. It seemed like whatever lies within, he won\'t bother stressing himself out of it. He only has one goal right now and that was to seal the compass inside the island, no longer be conquered by anyone else. He scanned the surroundings and found out that the Revenant Heavenly Sect\'s sect master and the high elders were present, with an Immortal Emperor in tow. It seemed that they were taking things seriously this time. A sect would not dare enough to make an Immortal Emperor come into being for a subpar reason.
Of course, it\'s not just the Revenant Heavenly Sect, there were also powerhouses that brought their Immortal Emperors in order to ensure their safety. But to those non-legacy powerhouses, they could only bring their strongest Immortal.
"Seems like many surrendered to the temptation of the treasures." Jin Rou sighed. He knew that a few bunches of knowledgeable old monsters in the crowd knew that something must be going on the moment the ancient race offered free entrance in the island. But they did not pay it any heed as they thought that they could handle it when the time comes.
After which, more sea ships came that it already filled the entire seaside of the island.
And finally, the Sea Princess had appeared along with the 9 old men and 1 young man behind her. No one knew how, but the princess had just appeared right at the entrance without a single fluctuation in the void. How was that possible?
"Since everyone is already gathered here, I will now open the formation of the island!" The princess said in joy. She lifted her jade white hands and began chanting something. Soon, a bright blacklight towered towards the sky and twin majestic gates appeared in front of her. Soon, the gate sounded a creak and slit a slight opening up to the point that the entrance was fully open.
"Now that the gate is now opened, everyone can freely enter! But please be reminded that no matter what, ensure your safety as my ancient race would not be held liable for any mishap that happened to any of you." The princess said with a flash of her eyes.
