“Submarine?” The cheap cat asked with a puzzled look on his face, “What’s a submarine?”
Instead of answering the cheap cat’s question, Yang Zhen marveled.
This was getting more and more interesting, he didn’t know why the Eastern Desolation Emperor set up a life-transforming array here, even changing and utilizing the veins of the earth.
Such a lavish setup, there must be some good stuff on that small island.
Even though Yang Zhen still had no idea why Wang Meiling had come here, he assumed that what they were looking for must also be on that mythical, unapproachable island.
With this in mind, whoever could land on that island would surely be the ultimate winner.
Yang Zhen turned around and looked at Wang Meiling with a playful smile, asking, “You guys have made some preparations, right?”
Wang Meiling let out a bitter laugh, saying, “Not only us, but others also have made preparations. Elder Gu and his gang were here long ago, attempting to build a chain spanning the entirety of the Sea Dragon Pool, but it seems they have failed!”
Yang Zhen laughed, looking at such a vast expanse, the Sea Dragon Pool, without modern bridge-building technology, it was not surprising that they had failed.
“What did you guys prepare?” Yang Zhen asked curiously.
Wang Meiling carefully studied Yang Zhen, then said, “There’s no harm in telling you now. We prepared a boat capable of moving underwater. Although it was a success, it can only stay underwater for an hour before needing to resurface for air. Until now…we haven’t found a way to do that. If we get hit on the way, we cannot safely reach the island. That’s why we have to pass quickly, avoiding conflicts with others.”
Upon hearing this, the cheap cat turned green and turned to leave.
Yang Zhen grabbed the cheap cat and asked, “What are you doing?”
“What am I doing?” The cheap cat glared at him, saying, “Obviously, I’m leaving this damn place. I don’t want to drown here. Kid, you better leave as well. Don’t blame me for not warning you. This woman is crazed. Even a practitioner at the Divine Travel Stage, once fallen into the water and unable to come up at the first time, will drown here alive.”
Yang Zhen chuckled, revealing a creepy smile, and said, “It’s precisely because of this, I can’t leave.”
Wang Meiling’s eyes brightened upon hearing that, she grabbed Yang Zhen’s hand and excitedly asked, “Do you really have a solution?”
The cheap cat looked at Yang Zhen with suspicion before saying uncertainly, Boy, don’t joke about your life. Even if it’s some unknown object left by an emperor, not to mention a legacy of imperial techniques, it’s not worth taking such a risk. No, this isn’t a risk, it’s seeking death.”
Yang Zhen gave the cheap cat a sidelong glance, confidently saying, “The solution is right there, just some people can’t figure it out. Our Dirty Detachment Gang’s submarine is not something your common folks could understand.”
The cheap cat glanced at Yang Zhen in confusion and suddenly became interested, saying, “I am here anyway, so I might as well check out your submarine. But remember, if I think it is not reliable, I am not going to risk my life with you.”
Yang Zhen burst out laughing, turned around, and walked off, saying, “Rest assured, even if you want to go with me to meet your doom, I won’t go with you.”
Wang Meiling said excitedly, “Do you really have a solution?”
Yang Zhen nodded his head, lost in thought.
Along the way, Wang Meiling and Wang Ba had basically filled him in on the situation here.
There were three distinguishing features of the Sea Dragon Pool on the night of the Blood Moon, one was the prohibition of any True Essence, second was the inability for things to float in the Sea Dragon Pool, anything falling into it would sink. Thirdly, any living creatures entering the Sea Dragon Pool would be paralyzed, rendering them incapable of any physical exertion, ruling out the possibility of swimming across.
Given these conditions, there were only three ways to land on the island.
One was to construct something similar to a submarine that could move underwater, another was to train a powerful beast capable of flying a long distance with its physical body, and the last… was to power through with emperor-level cultivation!
We can dismiss the third, all the emperors have vanished, even the practitioners of the Great Saint Stage have also disappeared, it was simply impossible.
As for the second, any beast that could meet this requirement was wilful and hard to train. It would take three or five decades to make them serve humans. However, after three or five decades, the intrinsic nature of any beast would devolve, whether they could fly across or not remained a mystery. In so many years, no one has been able to land on the island, obviously, no one could successfully train such a beast.
I’d have to do it underwater then!
Yang Zhen’s thoughts grew fervent, thanking his good-for-nothing old man for obligating him to become the man of the house. He had picked up toy making and innovation from a young age.
Yes, Yang Zhen was going to craft a toy, a massive one that would dazzle those around him with its titanium-dog-eye brilliance.
After coming up with a plan, Yang Zhen didn’t appear before the crowd. He found a quiet area not far away, scavenged some Star Iron and other miscellaneous items, and began crafting his device.
As time went on, night fell, and the entire area around the Sea Dragon Pool grew bustling.
The island was set to appear the next day. The Sea Dragon Pool was relatively peaceful for now, with more and more people losing patience and starting to test their island-landing tools.
The Scoundrel Cat had disappeared who knows where, as had Wang Meiling; Yang Zhen was alone and undisturbed, immersed in the heat of making his toy. The constant clanking sounds continued unceasingly, interspersed now and again with astonished cries from outside.
Good heavens, just how was this massive thing from Mountain Hua’s blessed land made? It’s simply as intimidating as a fortress!”
“I’ve heard long ago that Mountain Hua’s blessed land is determined to take the island. Their underwater tool is called Dominated Sky, it took them ten years to successfully craft it.”
“Wow, such a divine object, there’s no need to worry about running out of air. As long as you can move slowly underwater, you will surely reach the island. Mountain Hua’s blessed land is indeed formidable; they managed to craft such an amazing device.”
“What’s that, in comparison? Friend, take a look over there.”
“That… what is that?”
Roar!
A roar that shook heaven and earth rang out. Not far away, a massive creature let out a heaven-quaking roar, and wild energy waves covered the sky. Intense waves of True Essence swept through the world, and huge wings filled the sky; its appearance was fearsome.
“Oh my god, that’s a Heavenly Dragon Beast! Which faction had such resources to tame such a wild and fierce beast?”
“Who else could it be other than the Beast Control Sect of Northern Border? The Beast Control Sect may have only risen to become a major faction in recent hundred years but the seems the most likely to succeed in landing on the island this time. After all, no other faction can tame such terrifying beasts like they do.”
Various methods kept emerging, and more and more practitioners grew excited.
“I heard that Yang Zhen has also arrived at the Sea Dragon Pool, but I don’t know why we haven’t seen him yet.”
Yang the Scoundrel is here?” The practitioners who heard this trembled slightly, then laughed and said, “Even if he is here, he can only hide in secret. Now that Mountain Hua’s blessed land is so powerful, how dare he show up?” “But Yang Zhen should really be here. I just saw that Scoundrel Cat sneaking towards Mountain Hua’s blessed land.”
Boom!
A heaven-shaking sound was heard, and near the Emperor Stele, a mountain peak shattered. An ancient-looking massive object was dragged out by the crowd.
This… this shuttle… Was it collectively crafted by Elder Gu and others?”
By dusk on the second day, blood fog began to condense, and the atmosphere near the Sea Dragon Pool became eerie.
More and more massive machines broke out of the ground. The Scoundrel Cat’s eyes widened in astonishment, cursing, “Damn, I’ve never seen any of these things before, do they really need to be so big?”
With that, the Scoundrel Cat rudely rushed into the cave where Yang Zhen was hiding, yelling, “Kid, let’s get out of this hellhole. Damn it, Dominated Sky and Breaking Sea Shuttles are just too big, we can’t compete with them.. That Elder from Mountain Hua’s blessed land who’s in the Divine Travel Stage is threatening to take your life, damn it, why are you hitting me? The Elder said it, not me!”
