1354 The Truth Of The Island



~SHA~SHA~SHA~

The sound of waves hitting the coast could be heard as the ship neared the desolate island.

Lin Mu and the rest had finally reached their intended destination after over a week of travel. While there were a lot of dangers like aquatic beasts and more on the way, with Elder Niji’s guidance and the ability of the Haima, avoiding them was a breeze.

If this was any other ship, they might have been wrecked several times over in this time. The same distance that they had covered in seven days might have taken them over four or five months since they would have to either go around a lot of the dangers or wait till they passed.

“So this is the Safe Haven?” Kunzi asked seeing the desolate island that had little life on it.

“This is merely the outer appearance of this island. Plus the Safe Haven isn’t this island, but is located on the ocean floor.” Elder Niji said as he controlled the ship and let the people get down from the ship.

Once the Haima members were down, Elder Niji dissipated the water part of the ship, letting it return to its normal form. Only then did the rest of the passengers, mainly the convict humans got down.

“I can sense some arrays… the energy distribution here is rather erratic.” Lin Mu spoke while squinting his eyes.

His spirit sense was unable to sense any formations here, but with his spatial perception, Lin Mu managed to ‘see’ the energies moving around. The pattern they were moving around was an easy clue for a formation.

“Noble Lin Mu is right. There is a huge illusory array on the island. This array hides the main area of the island.” Elder Niji spoke. “Though this island has no particular name. Ancestor Muxuan didn’t name it since he wanted it to stay unknown.” He added.

“I see…” Lin Mu and Kunzi nodded their heads.

“Let’s see how it really is then.” Lin Mu felt a little excited and jumped down from the ship.

Elder Niji sped ahead and took the lead, guiding them into the island.

The path was no fixed as the island was mostly made out of rocks. Some sea weed was seen growing from the cliff walls and the rocks on the shore, but other than that, there was little to no life on the island.

Even the common bird beasts flying around the ocean didn’t land on the island to rest. Instead, they avoided the island entirely, taking a large circle around it.

Lin Mu continued to look around while spreading his spirit sense, taking all the sights in.

‘It really is quite desolate… all I see are rocks, stones and boulders… even the soil here is mostly stone dust…’ Lin Mu observed.

After about ten minutes though, the large group came to a stop in front of a small boulder. The boulder was about three meters tall and four meters wide, having an irregular oval shape.

It looked utterly mundane in appearance, and yet it stood out due to the fact that there was just this one boulder in a 100 meter wide flat area.

“What is this?” Lin Mu asked, his spatial perception only telling him that the energy density here was highest and so were the number of runes.

“This is the entry point to the actual island.” Elder Niji spoke before walking to the boulder. “Hai as in Ocean and Ma as in Horse…” he muttered while placing his hand on the boulder.

~HUALA~

As soon as he did that, a pulse of energy was felt by everyone.

~ZING~

Suddenly, a light blue glob of energy shot straight up from the boulder. It reached high up into the sky and a long blue line could now be seen. It looked like someone had built a blue pillar in the air.

“Open.” Elder Niji ordered.

~HONG~

The tall blue pillar seemingly expanded in the air, making it look like translucent curtains were being pulled apart.

“This is a peak immortal grade illusory array.” Lin Mu identified.

With his recent lessons with Xukong, it would be a shame if Lin Mu couldn’t even do this much.

“That’s right.” Xukong confirmed as well. “Whoever set this was at the very peak of the Immortal realm once. Though the array seems to have weakened over the years.” He added.

“It has really weakened senior? Even when I could barely sense it?” Lin Mu was surprised.

“It is precisely due to the fact that it was weakened were you able to sense its presence. If not for that, even your spatial perception would be unable to tell. At its full potential, this illusory array can even hide from the senses of a spatial Dao expert.” Xukong replied.

“Whoa… I should perhaps study this.” Lin Mu muttered.

The other Haima tribe members as well as the human convicts were stunned at this scene too. Only when the ‘curtain’ was fully opened did they gather their wits.

“Beautiful…” Lin Mu couldn’t help but say seeing the true appearance of the island.

It was a lot bigger than it appeared on the outside and was full of life!

There were millions of plants growing everywhere, and both animals and beasts could be seen running around on the island as well. Not just that, but the concentration of spirit Qi and immortal Qi was rather high here.

“Come, we have a little more distance to cover.” Elder Niji stated.

The group continued onwards while marveling at all the scenes.

“Isn’t that Sun Drop Magnolia?”

“And that is Blue Mist Azalea!”

“Heavens! Is that a Long Horn Bark Immortal Antelope!?”

The humans convicts soon started to recognize some of the things that were present here. Not only was there a bound of herbs here, there were some immortal beasts spread around the island!

Lin Mu took looked at the Antelope beast in the distance, only to find it disinterested in them. The Immortal beast ran away without caring for them.
