First Arrival at Sea God Island

"Why don't we go over and see what's going on?" Yu Mingxiao's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately turned around and sped off toward that place.

Since we'll be landing on Sea God Island sooner or later anyway, it doesn't matter if we make contact with the people Sea God Island sooner.

On the other side...

On the sea, a giant ship from Sea God Island sailed smoothly, the trident flag at the top of its mast fluttering in the wind.

Several middle-aged men in yellow shirts were standing on the deck, talking about something.

"I don't know what the High Priestess was thinking, actually sending us to the Demonic Whale Sea Area to find someone. I've heard that the sea is extremely dangerous, and very few Sea Soul Master can leave there alive."

"Shh, keep your voice down, I heard it's an order from above."

"Above, are you referring to the divine decree issued by the Lord Sea God?"

At this moment, the man in black leaning against the bulwark not far away slowly opened his eyes and said calmly, "What are you talking about?"

The two middle-aged men in yellow robes said with trepidation, "Lord Sea Dragon, please forgive us."

"Do not question the High Priestess's orders!"

Sea Dragon Douluo's expression was solemn as he said, "Before I left, I received news that the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, who inhabited the Demonic Whale Sea Area, had already been hunted down."

"The person we're looking for on this trip is one of the participants in the hunt for the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King."

"If we manage to bump into that person on this trip and have a pleasant conversation, there shouldn't be any danger."

"That terrifying whale has been hunted down?!"

The two Yellow-robed Spirit Master exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with undisguised shock.

As native residents of Sea God Island, they had heard the terrifying legend of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King since childhood.

It is the leader of the three overlords of the sea and is recognized as the strongest Soul Beast in the sea.

Even the two major clans, the Demon Soul Great White Shark and the Evil Orca King, dare not provoke them easily.

How could such a terrifying being be hunted down?

As the shock subsided, the two breathed a sigh of relief.

At least, there's no need to worry about being devoured by the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King.

Why do you all appear to be in such a hurry?

Suddenly, a voice rang out on the deck.

"Who!?" Sea Dragon Douluo abandoned his lazy demeanor, his expression immediately becoming serious, and the surrounding group of Yellow-robed Spirit Master also tensed up.

Yu Mingxiao's figure flashed and appeared on the deck. He said calmly, "Don't be nervous, I mean you no harm. You're from Sea God Island, right? What are you doing here?"

"You... you are the person in the portrait."

Sea Dragon Douluo saw Yu Mingxiao's face clearly, he froze, stunned on the spot.

"Portrait? What portrait?" Yu Mingxiao was completely confused.

Sea Dragon Douluo immediately took out the portrait given to him by Bo Saixi, slowly unfolded it, and handed it to Yu Mingxiao.

Yu Mingxiao glanced at the painting and noticed that the person in it bore a striking resemblance to him. He raised an eyebrow and asked, "It really is a portrait of me. Where did you get it?"

Sea Dragon Douluo hesitated for a moment, then said, "This was given to me by the High Priestess, who instructed me to lead a group out to sea to find you."

It was Bo Saixi who gave it to him. Could it be... that the Sea God has been spying on me all along, and even sent down a divine decree ordering Sea God Island to send people out to sea to find me...?

Yu Mingxiao's mind raced, and in an instant, he clearly connected the cause and effect.

There was only one thing that puzzled him: why would the Sea God go to such lengths as to send a divine decree and have the Sea God Island travel all the way to find him?

Yu Mingxiao remained calm and probed, "I have no connection with Sea God Island, so why did you specifically set sail to find me?"

Sea Dragon Douluo said, "This is the High Priestess's order, and also the decree issued by the Sea God."

"I don't know the specific reason, but the High Priestess specifically instructed that you be invited to Sea God Island. Would you be willing to make the trip?"

As expected, it involves the Sea God. Judging from the attitude of these people, they have no ill intentions; on the contrary, they are quite gentle.

Since that's the case, let's go with them.

Yu Mingxiao had a thought, and chuckled softly, "I was just about to go to Sea God Island myself, so I'll trouble you all to give me a ride."

"That's wonderful!" Sea Dragon Douluo laughed. "You're too kind. The High Priestess specifically instructed me to do this."

The large ship set sail on its return journey, navigating the vast ocean.

During the journey, Yu Mingxiao chatted idly with Sea Dragon Douluo in a relaxed atmosphere.

When Sea Dragon Douluo learned that Yu Mingxiao was not yet thirteen years old, his first reaction was disbelief, but Yu Mingxiao did not care.

After sailing on the sea for an unknown period of time, the outline of the island finally came into view.

Yu Mingxiao followed Sea Dragon Douluo off the ship and onto the dock. His feet touched the soft sand, and he looked up at the horizon.

Looking around, the entire Sea God Island is lush and green, with abundant vegetation and all kinds of plants, many of which are unique to this island.

A sea breeze blows, making you feel refreshed and comfortable; the whole island is full of vitality.

Sea Dragon Douluo walked ahead, raising his hand in a gesture of invitation, "Mr. Yu, I'll take you to see the High Priestess first."

"Okay." Yu Mingxiao nodded and followed him into the woods.

The island has dense forests, and the air is filled with the freshness of nature.

After traveling for an unknown amount of time, they came to a pool of water.

The pool is about 500 meters in diameter, and in the center there is a triangular platform with a strange stone pillar standing on it.

The stone pillar is shaped like a pointed cone, with a special sculpture carved at the top, and countless complex patterns engraved on the entire pillar.

It seemed to be some kind of writing, an invisible and strange energy emanating from this strange pillar.

"This is the Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar that I guard, and it is also one of the Seven Sacred Pillars of Sea God Island."

With a devout expression, Sea Dragon Douluo slowly said, "The Lord Sea God bestowed divine power upon the Seven Sacred Pillars Seven Sacred Pillars, through which the God's will is disseminated."

"Um."

Yu Mingxiao responded indifferently, glanced at the pillar, and then looked away.

Sea Dragon Douluo did not linger at the Sacred Pillar, but continued to lead the way, telling the story of the local customs and Sea God of the Sea God Island along the way.

After walking for about fifteen minutes, we finally emerged from the woods and came into view a small town— Sea Dragon City.

It's called a small town, but it really is small; it's more like a seaside village with only two or three thousand people.

According to Sea Dragon Douluo, this is already the largest settlement on Sea God Island; the other six small towns each have only a little over a thousand people.

The two did not stay in Sea Dragon City for long before leaving the city and heading towards the center of Sea God Island.

That is the location of Sea God Mountain, and on the summit is the Sea God Temple, which was also the residence of the High Priestess Bo Saixi.

The Sea Dragon Douluo led him to a Ring Sea, with the sea surrounding a small island in the middle. At the highest point of the island stood a grand hall that looked like it had been carved from a single piece of white jade.

"Sea Dragon, is this the child the Lord Sea God is looking for? You've done very well."

A gentle, soft voice drifted slowly from the depths of the main hall.

Immediately afterwards, a woman of stunning beauty and noble elegance stood silently in front of Yu Mingxiao.
