Chapter 306: 286: The Mysterious Yin Ying Island
“Since I have now fully resolved his obsession, I fear that the next time I enter the Fallen Immortal Realm, I will be in a different location.”
“I wonder what kind of encounters I will have then.”
It seems that being trapped in the same space-time in the Fallen Immortal realm is actually a rare opportunity.
If there’s only one chance to try, and you can’t repeatedly attack and excavate the various clues hidden in space-time.
I’m afraid it would be extremely difficult to gain so much.
Of course, the premise is that one can escape from the trap of infinite reincarnation.
As for how, just wait until the next time I enter, then I will know.”
Feeling a slight sensation in his heart, Li Fan frowned.
Perhaps it was due to the two harvests he made this time, the time limit for entry had almost doubled.
It was estimated that the limit would not disappear until about a year later.
“Good things come slowly, so I can only wait patiently,” Li Fan sighed to himself.
Deserted Island.
Ever since Su Xiaomei and Zhang Haobo’s departure, Xiao Heng seemed to have been stimulated in some way, and his cultivation had become even more diligent.
Not long ago, the bottleneck that had always plagued him had finally dissipated, and he could now advance to the Golden Core Realm at any time.
Drawn by a sense of purpose, he went to the central sea area of the Cloud Sea in search of his destiny.
At the same time, the Yin sisters had also reached the status of Perfect Energy Cultivators, and each of them had obtained a top-tier oddity — the [Treasure Silk] and the [Divine Escape Needle], respectively, in the Skeleton Pioneer Realm, beginning their journey of secluded base building.
On the Deserted Island, the only one left who hadn’t built a base was Su Changyu.
However, he had only just broken through to the Final Stage of Energy Refining.
Base building was still a long way off for him.
For a moment, even Su Changyu, with his calm temperament, could not help but feel at a loss.
“When Xiaomei and Xiao Heng return, they should have entered the Golden Core Stage.”
“And I’m still stuck in the Energy Refining Stage.”
“In fact, the gap between me and them will only get wider and wider.”
Standing on the beach, watching the tide rise and fall, Su Changyu couldn’t help feeling a bit bitter.
He was not a saint, after all.
Those around him were all talented individuals, and being with them every day, how could he not feel pressure?
However, in the past, he always kept these frustrations inside and never talked about them.
Now that all the familiar faces suddenly vanished…
Even the two younger sisters who joined the deserted island later were going to build their base before him.
At last, Su Changyu was finally a little overwhelmed.
After all, he was just an ordinary young man.
Feeling frustrated, he didn’t even have the motivation to cultivate.
For the first time, Su Changyu flew away from the deserted island, wandering aimlessly.
Along the way, whenever he encountered other cultivators, he instinctively avoided them.
After what felt like forever, he came to his senses and found himself near a desolate island without even realizing it.
The island was small, with little vegetation.
The only thing it had was a square black stone building standing on it.
Seeing that there seemed to be someone living on the island, Su Changyu decided to avoid it to prevent any misunderstanding.
Just as he was about to leave, however, a sudden burst of fire came out of the black stone building on the island.
And it was accompanied by faint cries for help.
After hesitating for a moment, Su Changyu eventually decided to land and rush into the square building.
Inside the building, there were transparent cages everywhere.
Inside were all manner of bizarre and horrific creatures.
Two-headed pythons, goat-headed sea turtles, giant disc-shaped water maggots, weird species made up of six skulls and hands, etc.
For some reason, these creatures had all lost their life essence.
Only their bodies lay still in the cages.
With a solemn expression on his face, Su Changyu became alert and continued deeper into the building.
Heading into the distance, they arrived in front of a massive rectangular transparent cage.
There were four small cages on each side, interconnected with this rectangular cage.
These four cages housed several mortal beings in tattered clothes.
Some had already died, while others were still barely clinging onto life.
A fierce fire was spreading from the central giant cage towards the surroundings.
The cries for help that Su Changyu had heard earlier came from these mortals.
Upon seeing this, Su Changyu performed a water-controlling technique, intent on extinguishing the fire.
Unexpectedly, these flames were not ordinary.
Upon contact with water, they didn’t extinguish but instead burned more vigorously.
At this, Su Changyu’s expression changed; he manipulated the water while simultaneously combining it with the spiritual energy in his body.
Only then could he slightly obstruct the raging flames.
However, he was ultimately incapable of extinguishing them.
After a short time, Su Changyu started to struggle.
The spiritual energy he consumed got weaker and weaker, while the fire prospers more and more.
Seeing an Immortal Teacher saving them, the mortals in the cage rekindled their hopes for life, and they began to kowtow to Su Changyu.
Su Changyu gritted his teeth and persisted.
Just when his spiritual energy was about to be depleted, two strange voices rang out simultaneously.
“Why? Why would you, a cultivator, want to save these mortals?”
“Why? Why would you, a cultivator, want to save these mortals?”
Su Changyu was startled and followed the direction of the voices. He saw an old cultivator with snow-white hair, who had somehow appeared behind him.
He was staring at Su Changyu, muttering to himself in a somewhat befuddled manner.
Su Changyu didn’t know how to respond immediately.
It had been only over a decade since he left Da Li, disengaging from the life of mortals.
During this time, he has been living on a deserted island with his friends and family.
He never harbored any thoughts of distinction between immortals and mortals.
It was instinctive for him to lend a helping hand to anyone in need of help.
Upon seeing Su Changyu’s slightly embarrassed state, the man scoffed.
With a casual wave of his hand, the raging fire instantly dispersed.
Su Changyu let out a sigh of relief.
“Follow me.”
“Follow me.”
Still, the two voices rang out simultaneously.
A door nearby suddenly opened, and Su Changyu went in.
The chaos inside surprised him.
The place should have been deliberately destroyed, with shattered skeletal remains strewn all over the floor.
There were those belonging to humans, as well as some strange and exotic beasts.
There was even a terrifying small dog in the middle of the passage with human hands as limbs and multiple eyes on its stomach.
The white-haired cultivator didn’t seem to care.
He casually swept these things aside, clearing a path.
Su Changyu cautiously followed.
At the end of the path, there were stairs leading downward.
The man looked back at Su Changyu, gave a mysterious smile as if signaling Su Changyu to follow, then slowly started to descend.
The place was filled with an eerie atmosphere, Su Changyu took a deep breath, thought for a moment, and decided to follow the stairs downward.
Once his eyes adjusted to the darkness in the space below, he clearly saw his surroundings and a chill suddenly surged up in Su Changyu’s heart.
The not-so-spacious area was densely packed with hundreds of bodies.
Most of these bodies were broken and tattered, lying around like ruined cloth dolls.
The various body parts were scattered around irregularly. The terrifying situation was like purgatory.
