Journey to Devil Island
Having advanced to the Divine Craftsman level and acquired the Four-Word Battle Armor, this was Long Yuan's main purpose in returning to find Zhen Hua.
Afterwards, he sought out Mu Ye and Yun Ming to study for a period of time, mastering the Body Refining Method of the Body Sect and Yun Ming's prized Sky-Supporting Sky-Supporting Divine Spear Technique.
Then, he left with A Ruheng and Sima Jinchi.
After some time, under the powerful Spiritual Power senses of Long Yuan and the summons of the Devil Islands, the three arrived at the area where the Devil Islands were located.
Located in the northeastern sea area of the New Douluo Continent, all the islands are black, inspiring fear. The main island, Devil Island, is filled with Destruction Aura and lacks the Heaven and Earth Origin Energy, making it impossible for people to recover their Soul Power.
The seawater within 300 meters of the island is all black.
A Life Tide erupts every 100 years.
Devil Island originated from a generation of Shrek Seven Monsters. When that generation of Shrek Seven Monsters was monitoring the continent, they discovered the anomalies on Devil Island and went to investigate. As a result, an accident occurred, their bodies were destroyed, and their souls were imprisoned on Devil Island, which became the Devil Island we know today.
Devil Island may be related to the Douluo God Realm, or perhaps to the God of Destruction, since the core of Devil Island is Destruction God energy.
At the same time, the Life Energy in the central area of Devil Island is extremely rich, and it is also related to the Goddess of Life.
The three arrived at Devil Islands and couldn't help but shiver; it was extremely cold there.
The vegetation covering the area was mostly coniferous forest, which looked lush and green. However, all the trees, vegetation, and even the earth were black, Pitch-Black as Ink.
It is awe-inspiring, as if haunted by ghosts.
Tang Wulin and the Shrek Seven Monsters had already been here.
Long Yuan also wanted to come and gain some experience. His real purpose was, of course, to see if he could absorb the Divine Power left behind by the Goddess of Life and the God of Destruction.
The three of them moved forward, feeling something strange. It was as if the elements had been stripped away; everything seemed normal, but the Heaven and Earth Origin Energy was completely gone.
All three are very strong, and ordinary restraints have little effect on them.
"You are... from the Shrek Academy?"
"Not bad, you were able to get in without being shown the door!"
After a while, an old figure appeared in their sight. He was about 1.8 meters tall, with a hunched back, messy white hair hanging down, and his face was full of wrinkles, with a wrinkled and bald appearance.
He held a cane in his hand, and his eyes were very clear, without any dimness.
"No, the strength of the three of you, two of you are close to Titled Douluo and one is Super Douluo, it's impossible that you've only come to train now."
"With cultivation levels like these, training here won't be as effective as for those at lower cultivation levels! Shrek Academy knows exactly who you are!"
The old man thought for a moment, frowned, and said, "Could it be that you're not from the Shrek Academy?"
"We're from the Shrek Academy. We're just here to gain some experience and see what's so special about this place!"
As Long Yuan spoke, he handed over the Shrek Academy certificate that he had prepared in advance.
"Yes, it's true. Then come with me. How much you gain is up to you!"
After seeing the certificate, the old man didn't say much and led the three of them deeper into the island.
"Let's treat them!"
Before long, the old man led the three to a place where they encountered an old man in Black-Clad, with a gloomy look in his eyes, a hooked nose, and his hands behind his back.
"Come with me!"
After saying that, the old man in Black-Clad walked forward, and as he walked, Long Yuan sensed a strong vitality.
At the same time, they also saw a huge purplish-black pillar of light in the distance, filled with Destruction Aura that chilled them to the bone.
It was a completely subconscious fear, one that was beyond one's control.
Long Yuan was surprised. Even though his cultivation level had reached Level 96, he was still unconsciously feeling fear.
It truly lives up to its reputation as the Destruction Aura left behind by the God of Destruction.
"Introduce yourselves!"
The old man led the three to a valley and turned to ask.
"My name is Long Yuan!"
"My name is Sima Jinchi!"
"My name is A Ruheng!"
All three of them only introduced themselves by name, without mentioning their Martial Soul or Soul Power Level.
"My name is Nightmare, and this is Devil Island. You are currently in the center of Devil Island, Devil Valley, and I am the devil here. You can call me Nightmare Old Devil!"
After giving the three of them a deep look, Nightmare Old Devil introduced himself and couldn't help but reveal a wicked smile.
"From now on, this will be your resting place. Remember, do not try to approach those Light of Destruction out of curiosity. If you get contaminated, no one can save you, understand?"
"We just arrived today. Find your own food; there are all kinds of food in the forest. Okay, that's all for now!"
After saying that, Nightmare Old Devil's body became ethereal, and he vanished in a flash.
The three of them came here under the guise of training at the Shrek Academy, and everything still needs to be arranged by these old devils.
This was something that Long Yuan, A Ruheng, and Sima Jinchi had already discussed on the way.
Moreover, the basic information about Devil Island had already been explained to the two of them.
Although they were curious, neither of them spoke much and simply followed Long Yuan's arrangements.
"The Life Goddess force here is abundant; absorb and refine it as much as possible—it will benefit your body!"
After saying that, Long Yuan sat down cross-legged and began to absorb the Life Goddess force.
"Good!"
A Ruheng and Sima Jinchi also quickly sat down cross-legged, calmed their minds, and entered into meditation.
The Life Goddess here is extremely strong, which greatly helps their cultivation.
Boom! Just as the three entered a meditative state, a sense of crisis arose as three dark figures lashed out at them.
Long Yuan's Spiritual Power was incredibly powerful. He suddenly opened his eyes and struck out with a palm.
He slapped the three dark figures to pieces, and then a muffled groan was heard as the dark figure was sent flying a hundred meters away.
"Ahem, you've actually reached the level of Titled Douluo, kid. Not bad at being vigilant!"
The Nightmare Old Devil's voice came from all directions and reappeared in front of the three of them.
"Since you're here to train, you should train properly and not resist!"
As he spoke, the Nightmare Old Devil waved his hand again, and three black shadows struck the three of them, causing them to feel a stinging pain.
Small holes were pierced, and blood was faintly seeping out.
Long Yuan nodded. "Alright, then let's train hard and not resist."
Now that we're here, we have to accept everything; these are things we might face in the future.
A very important characteristic of the human body is that the capacity to withstand secondary or primary stress is vastly different, especially in terms of psychological endurance.
Having endured all the hardships here, I will be able to deal with similar difficulties more easily in the future.
"Just enjoy this Neurotoxin. There's no need to try to treat it or resist it with your Soul Power. It's useless. Once you've been in pain for two hours, you'll recover naturally."
After saying this, Nightmare Old Devil disappeared.
Subsequently, the stinging sensation on the three people intensified rapidly, and their entire bodies began to tremble.
Then, the old demon reappeared and applied an extremely itchy ointment to them, making the three of them suffer.
The pain was excruciating, reaching to the bone, and the intense itching lasted for a full two hours before it subsided.
But all three of them persevered. All three are ruthless. Long Yuan had told them beforehand that they should be mentally prepared and accept whatever might happen.
Just as the ordeal of intense pain and itching subsided, a faint yellow mist slowly began to drift towards the three of them from all directions.
A new trick is coming.
Soon, the three were enveloped in the yellow mist. Without any resistance, they quickly fell into a coma.
