Chapter 1658: Illusory Island Appears
As a Great Saint, Teluo Basi was rather well-known among the islanders. Now that someone was provoking him so publicly, he was naturally infuriated.
"You are definitely foreign bandits! I, Basi, shall personally end you!" roared Teluo Basi as he sent a blue palm flying toward Little White"s chest.
Little White took a step forward, puffed his chest out, and allowed the palm to hit him.
Boom!
A Great Saint was strong enough to overturn seas and rivers, but the palm attack failed to do any sort of damage to Little White.
"This is not even strong enough to scratch my itch," said Little White with derision before charging Teluo Basi.
Before Teluo Basi even realized what was happening, he found himself being held by his neck. Death felt ever so close, and he froze up in fear.
"Do you want to die?" asked Little White coldly.
"Little White, keep him alive for now," said Xiang Shaoyun. He then addressed the other islanders, "We"re not locals. We came from the Western Desert, and we"re here for the Illusory Island. I hope n.o.body will cause unnecessary trouble for us."
Xiang Shaoyun"s words seemed to have triggered something as all the islanders immediately glowered at them.
"They really are foreign bandits! We can"t allow them to leave!"
"That little girl from Weili Island was probably kidnapped. Let"s kill them and free the girl."
"Foreign bandits have never been good people. They can forget about entering the Illusory Island with us."
"Right. We can"t spare them. They are bringers of calamity. When they entered the Illusory Island in the past, they had caused the deaths of all our ancestors who were exploring the island at the time. That is a grudge we can"t forgive!"
...
More and more islanders converged around them, and a fight seemed to be on the verge of breaking out.
"Bring it on. This old fart will be the first I kill!" roared Little White as he held Teluo Basi in his hand.
At this time, the Crystalrock Island"s G.o.d, Teluo Mengde walked out and said, "Release Basi, and we will allow you to leave. Otherwise, this will be where you die."
Just as Little White was about to say something, Xiang Shaoyun said, "Since we"re unwelcomed, we will leave. Little White, release him."
Xiang Shaoyun had actually backed down. Little White had not seen that coming. After some hesitation, he released Teluo Basi. Right that moment, someone from a different island attacked.
"Foreign bandits, we can"t allow you to leave!" shouted the attacker.
That person was even stronger than Teluo Basi. However, his strength was still not enough. Little White was able to move away from the attack without much effort. Before Little White could make a counterattack, Xiang Shaoyun moved. He grabbed both Weili Yana and Little White and sped off rapidly.
The islanders tried to give chase, but they were naturally not as fast as Xiang Shaoyun. Unless the G.o.ds moved personally, the islanders would not be able to catch up to Xiang Shaoyun.
However, each of the G.o.ds was incredibly prideful. They wouldn"t lightly make any moves, much less when they were trying to focus on the Illusory Island.
After shaking off all the pursuers, Xiang Shaoyun stopped running.
Little White asked doubtfully, "Boss, why did we flee?"
"If we had stayed, we would have had no other chance to leave," said Xiang Shaoyun.
"You think we wouldn"t have been a match for them?" asked Little White.
"Yes. I can feel several fellows who are probably at the fourth- or fifth-stage Rebirth Realm. If we really decide to fight, escaping will be difficult," said Xiang Shaoyun seriously.
"What should we do, then? Are we giving up so easily?" asked Little White.
"Of course not. It won"t be too late for us to rush over from here when the Illusory Island appears. It"s not like we must stay on that nameless island."
"Ok. I"ll listen to you."
...
Half a month pa.s.sed quickly. Finally, the time had arrived for the Illusory Island to make its appearance. Prior to the island"s reappearance, tsunami after tsunami erupted in the sea region of the extreme north, creating an apocalyptic scene that filled everyone"s heart with despair.
At the same time, numerous terrifying aquatic beasts emerged from the sea. These beasts were extremely powerful, with Demon Saints and even Demon G.o.ds among their ranks. Their violent appearance alarmed all the islanders.
Many of the aquatic beasts charged onto the nameless island and engaged the islanders in an intense battle. The islanders were able to kill many of the beasts, but many among them perished as well. Before anyone knew it, an indistinct island appeared amid the mist, driving everyone crazy.
"I must step on the island this time! I need to get my hands on the divine treasures there!"
"The divine treasures will belong to the Dream Moon Island!"
"Seven-colored fantastical spring, here I come! I will forge the strongest physique, and n.o.body can stop me!"
"Everyone, let"s focus on getting through the obstacles first. Otherwise, all of us will die before reaching the island."
...
The islanders started madly charging toward the Illusory Island. But before they could reach the island, a large number of aquatic beasts appeared in their path. Additionally, countless ma.s.sive waves roared toward them, creating numerous obstacles between them and the island. Amid all the chaos, the people from the three strongest islands remained idle. They knew very well that blindly charging ahead would not bring them to the Illusory Island.
"This time, the three of us will work together. We will definitely be able to reach the island," said Bing Ruogang resolutely.
Lan Shuirou said, "That"s right. After preparing for so long, we can"t fail this. Let them tire out the aquatic beasts first before we make our move."
"Whatever divine treasures we find, we will distribute them based on strength," said Xue Xiong.
"Sure. However, those hidden rascals seem to be planning to profit off our hard work," said Bing Ruogang.
"They can think about it after pa.s.sing through the obstacles. With the little strength they have, they have no way of getting through," said Lan Shuirou.
"Cut the c.r.a.p. Let"s gather our strength and prepare to advance," said Xue Xiong impatiently.
The three groups then combined their s.h.i.+ps, forming a formidable force that sailed toward the raging tsunami.
"Time for us to make a move," said Xiang Shaoyun.
