Chapter 946: The Weird Turtle Shell Island

Translator: Sparrow TranslationsEditor: Sparrow Translations

A dense rain of rocks came down from above, smashing onto the defensive array of the flying ship. The larger rocks were many meters wide, while small ones were over 10cm in radius.

Although a Grade 3 god array was set up on Mo Wuji’s flying ship, the ship began to wobble as though it could be broken at any moment.

Da Huang and Shuai Guo drew out their magic treasures in preparation to deflect the falling rocks after the defensive array broke.

”My lord, I don’t know where these rocks are coming from. It can’t be detected by spiritual will.” As he saw Mo Wuji come out, Da Huang said after heaving a sigh of relief.

Mo Wuji’s spiritual will swept out and indeed he could not pinpoint the origin of those rocks. The edge of his spiritual will could only see a blur.

The surface of the Clear Ocean Path also seemed to be covered in a layer of mist, and the long ocean path could no longer be seen, almost like the dark red Nirvana Ocean had filled up the Clear Ocean Path once again.

This made Mo Wuji frown. Based on what he knew, the Clear Ocean Path should disappear only a hundred years after it first appears. It had only been five to six years, so why did it disappear already?

”My lord, there’s an island.” Shuai Guo exclaimed.

Even before Shuai Guo shouted, Mo Wuji and Da Huang had seen it as well. There was indeed an island on the forward left side of the flying ship. The island was like a turtle shell that was placed on the water surface, with many cracks all over its surface. At the center of the island, there seemed to be an area that sunk downwards.

”Let’s continue talking on the island.” Mo Wuji steered the ship to the vicinity of the island. With the density of rocks falling from above, even if there wasn’t the issue of the Clear Ocean Path vanishing, the flying ship couldn’t continue moving forward either.

To other cultivators, the Clear Ocean Path vanishing would mean death. However, to Mo Wuji, it was a mere inconvenience. After all, he could just enter the sea.

On the other hand, Shuai Guo and Da Huang weren’t as capable, so once the Clear Ocean Path disappeared, both of them could only enter the Undying World.

If they hadn’t helped him to steer the flying ship and he had walked by himself, not only would the time he took increase by many times, he wouldn’t have the time to research Array Dao and Talisman Dao.

Moreover, Da Huang and Shuai Guo cultivated at a rather fast pace outside. In these few short years, Da Huang was in advanced Nascent God Level 3 while Shuai Guo had become Godbeast Level 2.

The island wasn’t situated that far away from the flying ship, hence they soon landed on the edge of it. When they landed, the falling rocks seemed to disappear completely, giving Mo Wuji the shock of his life.

What was going on? Mo Wuji didn’t leave the flying ship, instead, he tried to steer it to get off the island. However, once he reached a certain distance away from it, the dense rain of rocks began falling again.

”My lord, those rocks seem to want us to stop on the island.” Shuai Guo said worriedly, no longer wanting to compare cultivation levels with Mo Wuji.

Initially, Shuai Guo still intended to compare himself with Da Huang. But Da Huang’s rate of cultivating became faster over time, so it gave up on the idea, instead marking Mo Wuji as its next target. All this while, its cultivation level paled in comparison with his, but now finally it had caught up. This was originally something to celebrate, and it had already planned for this to wait until its lord had praised him. However, with the current situation, it was too worried to do anything of that sort.

While Da Huang had some level of intelligence, his intelligence was insufficient, so he was not as smart as Shuai Guo. The life experiences that Shuai Guo had was also much more than him, as it had even been caught for its blood to be drained once. Hence, before he could sense that something was wrong, Shuai Guo had already beat him to it.

”You’re right, this should be a giant array. The aim of this array is to force us to land on this turtle shell like island. You two, enter my Undying World first.” Mo Wuji was still much more experienced than Shuai Guo, with his adventures bringing from the cultivation world to the Half Immortal Domain, Immortal World, etc, so he had seen many more devious tricks and dangerous situations. How could he not realised that something was off about this island?

Shuai Guo and Da Huang didn’t dare to utter a word even though their cultivation level was about the same as Mo Wuji. They knew that if there was really some danger present, they wouldn’t be able to help with their current cultivation. Their lord could at least escape into the Nirvana Ocean, and they would just wait for death on the outside.

After Mo Wuji brought both of them into the Undying World, he kept the flying ship and landed on the Turtle Shell island.

Upon taking the first step onto the island, Mo Wuji could feel a weird aura present.

This island was very unusual, as there were no rocks, trees, or even a single blade of grass. Only crisscrossing cracks on the island's surface could be seen. When Mo Wuji extended his spiritual will into those cracks, he could see everything inside very clearly.

In the cracks, there were countless skeletons, discarded magic treasures, and even some rings…

Could it be that those cultivators that failed to cross the Nirvana Ocean died here? Then their skeletons got blown into the cracks of the island by the wind?
