A month later, the Black Flying Boat appeared above a desolate island more than a hundred li across. The terrain was high in the east and low in the west. The eastern side was covered by a verdant mountain range with luxuriant vegetation, while the western side was an open plain.
Wang Mengbin, Cheng Zhenyu, Zheng Nan, and Flying Dragon Lord stood aboard the Black Flying Boat, each wearing a different expression.
"Fellow Daoist Wang, this is the place."
Flying Dragon Lord pointed at the desolate island below.
He formed a Hand Seal, and the Black Flying Boat slowly descended.
Wang Mengbin and the other two spread their divine senses wide, carefully scanning the entire island. They detected no Restrictions or traces of other cultivators.
The Black Flying Boat landed in a long, narrow valley. Green moss covered the uneven Stone Walls, while more than a hundred green vines as thick as fists climbed across them.
Flying Dragon Lord flicked his sleeve, sending out a Formation Flag flashing with yellow light. It shot into a stone wall like lightning and vanished.
The stone wall immediately lit up with dazzling yellow light, and an opening several zhang wide appeared.
"That secret site is beneath the sea, guarded by a fourth order high-grade Demon Beast. It'll be more convenient to enter from here."
Flying Dragon Lord explained this as he strode inside. Wang Mengbin followed, with Cheng Zhenyu and Zheng Nan right behind him.
After walking more than a hundred steps, the passage suddenly opened up. An Underground Cave about one mu in size appeared before them. In the upper left corner was a pool of water more than ten zhang across. The stone wall above it had split open, revealing a row of water droplets that occasionally fell into the pool.
