Although Chen Feng did not understand what Patriarch Skytour meant with those words, he nodded.

“Yes. As I am now in control of East Dragon Island, it is only natural for me to become very familiar with everything on this island.”

“Then, I wonder if Island Lord is familiar with what lies beneath this island,” Patriarch Skytour continued.

“Beneath this island!”

Chen Feng's eyes suddenly lit up.

“Is Patriarch Golden Turtle beneath this island?”

“It is very possible. We do not have the exact details as to what is beneath this island. However, when we were together in the past, Patriarch Golden Turtle did inadvertently mention something about it before. Additionally, it is likely the reason why Patriarch Golden Turtle's strength is stronger than the three of us,” Patriarch Azure Eyes interjected.

Nodding, Chen Feng then pondered the matter. It would appear that the three of them were telling the truth. If Patriarch Golden Turtle was truly hiding beneath this island, then Chen Feng would have to go check it out, regardless of what may lie there.

“I understand. I will go check it out.” Chen Feng nodded.

“If so, the three of us will take our leave.” Patriarch Skytour and the other two saluted Chen Feng respectfully before slowly leaving the room.

After the three of them had left, Chen Feng pondered the issue again. Their words should be true. However, whether or not they truly meant well by telling him that was another matter.

After leaving East Dragon Island, the Patriarch trio did not say anything to each other. They continued moving until they reached Skytour Island. Chen Feng had a.s.signed the three of them to safeguard Skytour Island.

Upon their arrival there, they turned around to check their surroundings. Next, they quickly put up restrictive arrays around them. Only then did they breathe a sigh of relief.

“Do you guys think Chen Feng will go?”

“I am not worried about whether or not Chen Feng will go there. What I am worried about is whether or not Patriarch Golden Turtle can defeat Chen Feng.”

“So what if he can defeat Chen Feng? Even if he kills Chen Feng, then what? Did you fellows forget about the peak-level Demon Kings? Even one of them can kill us all off. I seriously don't know what you fellows were thinking back then. To think that you would actually agree to Patriarch Golden Turtle's request.”

“What's wrong? Are you regretting it? Do not forget, the three of us are now on the same boat. If anything happens to one of us, the rest will be unable to get away as well.”

“Hey, I never agreed to it since the very beginning! You two are simply begging for death here! That Chen Feng is not to be underestimated.”

“Then, what should we do now? Do we go back and inform Chen Feng?”

“Forget it. Let's just wait it out. If something unexpected happens, we'll book it as fast as we can. If it comes down to it, we can just cast the islands aside and find a new place to start anew.”

“Easier said than done. I am afraid that we might not get the chance to leave.”

…

Despite having made up his mind, Chen Feng did not immediately set off. Instead, he waited for 10 more days before setting off.

Utilizing an earthslip technique, Chen Feng began drilling his way underground. Not long after that, his figure made its way past the whole island to enter the ocean.

It truly is a floating island. Chen Feng nodded. There was no need to exert too much of his soul power to sense the energy fluctuations within the ocean waters around him.

It was a very peculiar power. Although intermittent in nature, it was very powerful. It contained the characteristics of the ocean's undercurrents. Most importantly, this power was coming from the depths of the ocean and was acting on the island.

The three fellows did not lie to me about this. There is indeed something going on below. After reaching that line of thought, Chen Feng's figure then became like a wyrm diving into the ocean, splitting the surrounding water currents away as he quickly descended.

At Chen Feng's level, even a depth of 10,000 zhang beneath the ocean surface would be no different from standing on the surface for him.

While descending, Chen Feng sensed about. After descending for 1,000 metres, various undercurrents began moving to intersect one another. There were very few fishes and other aquatic life forms here. The only creatures that can survive in this place were some ocean yaos and water monsters with some accomplishments in the path of cultivation.

After descending 10,000 metres below the ocean surface, even ocean yaos and water monsters grew scarce. Stretching his hand out, Chen Feng felt a light pain from the a.s.sailing force of the surging undercurrents.

Pondering for a moment, Chen Feng then brought out a piece of stone from the Longevity Tower. Upon appearing within the ocean, the formidable water pressure there crushed the stone into bits.

Chen Feng's eyes transformed to become two black holes and waves of black light shot out from his eyes.

5 kilometres.

50 kilometres.

500 kilometres.

Chen Feng's gaze penetrated the increasingly heavy water currents, continuing to move forward through a distance of 500 kilometres without stopping.

Chen Feng, on the other hand, grew increasingly alarmed. He had managed to make out something peculiar deep within the ocean.

Reflected upon Chen Feng's eyes was a gigantic maelstrom that was rapidly spinning deep within the bottom of the ocean. The aura and power of destruction that it was emanating alarmed even Chen Feng. In fact, he had a feeling that, if he were to rely solely on his current fleshly body to enter the maelstrom, he would be torn to pieces.

There is such a gigantic maelstrom 5,000 kilometres below the water surface. Is this a naturally-forming thing? It doesn't seem to be as simple as a naturally-forming thing. Chen Feng contemplated the matter time and again. Finally, he stopped his descent.

Patriarch Skytour's group likely had bad intentions by informing me about this. However, is Patriarch Golden Turtle here? For the average people, entering this maelstrom is the equivalent of suicide. Light radiated out from Chen Feng's eyes. At the same time, his mind raced to a.n.a.lyse the situation.
