Chapter 649: Gods Bestow Tribe
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Currently, Jiang Yi was indeed at the nearby sea region of Sin Island. After recuperating for one hour at the Blood Night Fearsome Sea, he had immediately executed the Heaven Evasion to move across over 20 million miles to arrive at the Sky Dragon Continent which was at the east of the fearsome sea.
Jiang Yi was rather lucky and had appeared in the wilderness. He scouted the area, audaciously took out the Thearch Palace, and swaggered inside to continue recuperating.
The Thearch Palace had been discovered very quickly, but how could regular martial artists be able to break the defenses of the Thearch Palace? By the time they reported to bring Vajra Realm experts over, Jiang Yi’s injuries were already almost recovered. He didn’t start the battle and simply kept the Thearch Palace and ripped through the void. This time, he immediately arrived by the borders of the Endless Deep Sea.
Similarly, when Jiang Yi made sure there weren’t any powerful sea demons nearby, he got the Golden Flood Dragon to scout out the path while he returned into the Thearch Palace to recuperate. When the Golden Flood Dragon ascertained the direction, he then continued to use the Heaven Evasion. He didn’t dare to teleport too far away so that his body wouldn’t suffer too much of a backlash, and he would be able to escape if there was any danger.
Just like this, he continued to teleport and arrived at the nearby region of the Sin Island.
When he arrived at this place, he didn’t dare to continue using the Heaven Evasion. He used his Divine Perception to make sure that no one was pursuing, and he entered the Union of Heaven and Man State while flying to the east.
In this state, if an enemy was coming out from the Void Ancient Path, he would instantly detect it and would be able to escape with the Heaven Evasion in advance. Previously, at the territory of the Void Barb Beast, he had detected the She Clan like this.
In fact, when Jiang Yi entered this nearby sea region, he had nothing to worry about. It was also the reason why the two clans had withdrawn their armies after the Astrologers had found out that he was in this place.
Sin Island was the land of sins and the place where the members of the Nine Thearchs Clans were disdained to approach. The clan rules had stated that they must not go anywhere near a million miles of the Sin Island. Hence, Jiang Yi was very safe during this journey, and the strange thing was there were no powerful sea demons nearby as well. There would only be some tier-three low-grade sea demons.
Sin Island wasn’t just a single island. There were plenty of islands here instead, which numbered up to more than 100 islands.
The islands here were very strange. Over a dozen islands would gather together and form groups of islands in the shape of nine long snakes. The ‘heads’ of the nine snakes would all clutter and form a giant island in the center, it gave shape to a natural terrain of ‘nine dragons striving for a pearl’.
The terrain here wasn’t a normal terrain. In fact... Sin Island was able to exist until this date because of the terrain. Back then when the 13 clans were banished to this place, they were nearly extinct. There was this exceptional genius that appeared in the last surviving clan that put down this unique formation array on the islands... the Nine Dragons’ God-Extinguishing Array!
It was precisely this great array that allowed the 13 clans to withstand against waves of attack from the sea demons, which finally allowed them to form a pact with the Demon Race of the Endless Deep Sea—for them to mutually cease attacks. Of course, the Demon Race was willing to accept this pact because the 13 clans and the Demon Race had a common enemy, the Mystic Thearch. Back then, the Demon Race was slaughtered miserably by the Human Race which was led by the Mystic Thearch. Many of the great demons were driven out of the East Imperial Continent and forced into the Endless Deep Sea.
If they had a common enemy, it meant that they were friends. The 13 clans and the Demon Race in the Endless Deep Sea had made a pact: they were allowed to mutually attack one another, but if the East Imperial Continent’s human armies were to attack any one of them, they would offer assistance. It was one of the main reasons why the Nine Thearchs Clans failed to eradicate Sin Island.
Jiang Yi didn’t know all these things so he continued to advance at a loss. When he realized there wasn’t a single demon king in the nearby sea region, he felt a little puzzled.
Jiang Yi’s flying speed wasn’t fast. He was flying close to the surface of the sea, and his Fire Cloud Armor was hidden within his body. He looked just like a regular second-stage Vajra Realm martial artist.
Sin Island was very notorious, and he didn’t dare to maintain a high profile. Yi Chan was right. If he was overly excessive in the outside world, he was going to perish very quickly. Sin Island was now the only safe place for him. He had to first stabilize himself before he could make other plans.
“Eh? There is a fog...”
After advancing another thousand miles or so, there was a thick fog that appeared in the sea ahead. It made the sky and the surface of the sea turned into a patch of whiteness, with extremely low visibility. When he extended his divine senses, he was slightly surprised as he couldn’t sense anything.
“This white fog must be made by some restriction. Could I be almost reaching Sin Island?”
Jiang Yi pondered for a moment and resolutely continued flying forward. Since he was already here, he had no other ways. His only choice was to join the Sin Island and establish himself on Sin Island.
Swish!
When he just entered the white fog, he felt as though the spatial zone was vibrating slightly. Immediately after, he was enveloped by powerful energy which caused him to vanish from the air.
“Teleportation restriction!”
He felt a flash of white light and appeared on a small island. This island was very small, and a single glance was enough for him to see the surrounding sea region. It was probably around 10 miles in radius and was filled with lush greenery, which made the scenery extremely beautiful.
He didn’t have the mood to look at the scenery as his eyes were locked onto a black castle at the front. He could feel many powerful aura presences inside the castle, and there were at least 30 Heaven Monarchs!
The teleportation array was on a limestone plaza, and it was surrounded by nothing else. There was only a small castle at the front, and he wasn’t sure what was going to happen next. He instinctively stayed vigilant and was getting ready to battle or flee at any moment.
Shh-shh-shh!
There were a few footsteps that echoed from within the castle. Five martial artists wearing white armor walked out silently from the castle. These sets of white armor had beautiful and unique flower patterns as they should be a kind of clan’s special armor.
Four of the five who walked out remained silent while a slightly older martial artist—who was at the higher stages of the Heaven Monarch Realm—spoke indifferently, “Young man, I welcome you to the Gods Bestow Tribe. If you want to join the tribe, you will have to pay 2000 celestial stones per individual or work as laborers for a year. If you don’t wish to join the tribe, you may leave the islands; and you will be teleported out automatically.”
“Gods Bestow Tribe!”
Jiang Yi blinked his puzzled eyes and asked, “Isn’t this the Sin Island? Why is it now the Gods Bestow Tribe?”
“Hmph!”
A middle-aged martial artist by the side of the elder snorted and stared at Jiang Yi with indistinct eyes before saying, “Young man, the ‘Sin Island’ is a blasphemous name that the East Imperial Continent gave us. If you dare to mention those two words again, you will be killed without mercy! Remember, this place is called the ‘Gods Bestow Tribe’, a pure land that is bestowed to us by the gods.”
“Oh, this one doesn’t know about it. Please forgive me.”
Jiang Yi realized his mistake and quickly spoke apologetically with cupped hands. He quickly took out 2000 celestial stones from the ancient divine essence ring while his heart ached and handed it over to the elder. Who knew that the elder actually shook his head and said, “Not 2000, it’s 18,000 celestial stones. You should have a spatial artifact, right? You have a total of seven humans and two demonic beasts! So the total will be 18,000 celestial stones. As for the two smaller beasts, I will not charge any celestial stones according to the tribe rules...”
“Huh!”
Jiang Yi’s soul spirit got a shock. The people on this Sin Island had such powerful ability that could detect the number of people inside the Thearch Palace? They could even sense Xiao Fei and the Zouwu Beast so clearly?
“18,000 celestial stones!”
Jiang Yi was grieving bitterly. Where was he going to get so many celestial stones? He originally had over a thousand celestial stones after excavating the divine vein from Summer Rain City. He had already used up a lot of it, and Su Ruoxue had used a portion of it to nurture a batch of Soul Travel Realm experts. Feng Luan didn’t give him some afterward, but he had given Qian Wanguan a thousand them. Right now, Jiang Yi only had 3000 celestial stones. Jiang Yi didn’t bother about having more as his body was previously crippled, and he couldn’t even refine more even if he wanted to. Neither did he dare to.
Three thousand celestial stones were only enough to admit a single person, or everyone would have to enter as laborers. He didn’t even know about the situation inside Sin Island; what if being a laborer meant to be a slave for others? Wouldn’t they be easily killed by someone else?
Jiang Yi was in a dilemma.
