Chapter 981: Green Cloud Island (1/2)

“From another island?” Huang Xiaolong was slightly caught off guard but swiftly nodded, “Yes.”

“No wonder.” The black-haired elder smiled understandingly. Following that, he briefly gave Huang Xiaolong some information about the Bloodwind Forest.

As mentioned before, the primeval forest he landed in was called Blood Phoenix. It had existed ever since the ancient times, no one really knew how long it had been in existence.

According to an old legend, long ago in the ancient times, a powerful blood phoenix died here, which was also the origin of the forest’s name.

Due to the effect of the blood phoenix’s blood, all the demonic beasts inside the Blood Phoenix Forest possessed varying degrees of blood phoenix bloodline. Naturally, after so long, its traces had become extremely faint.

This Blood Phoenix Forest was located on an island named Green Cloud Island, which, although small in comparison to a land surface in the Divine World, was still twice the size of the Black Tortoise Galaxy.

Two Black Tortoise Galaxies, yet it was only a small island!

The Blood Phoenix Forest took up about one-third of the entire Green Cloud Island, moreover, it was located in the most central part, which was why this forest was known throughout the island.

Around the perimeter of the Blood Phoenix Forest were several tens of thousands of countries, big and small.

Naturally, other than these countries, there was also a great number of sects. Amongst them, the strongest three were the Barbarian God Sect, the Great Whale Sect, and the Elephant Genesis Sect.

Huang Xiaolong’s eyebrows slightly creased, he didn’t expect he would ascend to this Green Cloud Island. If this was so, then outside the island would the sea!

Just an island was already so big, he couldn't even begin to imagine how large the sea was! What about after the seashore?

Huang Xiaolong asked this question to the black-haired elder.

The elder answered, “Outside the Green Cloud Island is the Endless Sea. I’ve heard the sea has four great mainlands; one is called the Fortune Mainland, another is the Eternal Mainland, then the Dark Elf Mainland, and the last one is the Primal Chaos Mainland.”

Huang Xiaolong’s heart quickened, the Fortune Mainland? Could this Fortune Mainland be related to the Fortune Gate of the lower realm? Otherwise, it was too much of a coincidence. And that Eternal Mainland, was it related to the Wangu Clan?

But the elder himself had never ventured out of the Green Cloud Island, thus what he knew wasn’t a lot, and was unable to give Huang Xiaolong any detailed information about the four great mainlands.

Huang Xiaolong could only give up.

After this, the black-haired elder went to deal with the guards' corpses. After a while, when the three of them were about to leave, they invited Huang Xiaolong to accompany them, which he didn't refuse.

He was unfamiliar with this Blood Phoenix Forest, going with these three people made it easier for him to leave. Furthermore, he was alone in this new environment, befriending some forces would be beneficial to him later on.

Hearing Huang Xiaolong agreeing to travel with them, all three people rejoiced.

They had witnessed his strength with their own eyes. If Huang Xiaolong was with them, they need not worry about the more powerful demonic beasts attacking them.

The black-haired elder promised Huang Xiaolong that if he could ensure their safety until they were out of the Blood Phoenix Forest, they would definitely request their Fort Lord to heavily reward him once they were back to the family.

Toward the elder’s promise of rewards and what-not, Huang Xiaolong didn’t really care.

Although he couldn’t yet manipulate the pure spiritual energy here and convert it into divine stones, his ability remained. As long as his comprehension toward the Divine World’s laws deepened, he could endlessly condense the spiritual energy into divine stones.

At that time, he wouldn't be lacking in money.

On the way, Huang Xiaolong asked the three how they came about being attacked.

The black-haired elder sighed, recounting the events to Huang Xiaolong.

The three of them came from a force called Tie Family Fort. The elder’s name was Yan Hai, a guard captain of the Tie Family Fort, whereas the young man and woman were Tie Mu and Tie Xinlan respectively.
