Chapter 641: Boundless Sea (2/2)
If one were to observe from a distance, the Cemetery of Death which was usually undetectable with the naked eyes, currently transformed into a giant sphere that gave of faint greenish shimmers. It appeared extremely strange and mysterious.
The earth started to shake as the Cemetery of Death rumbled like a rocket engine. With plenty supply of energy, the Cemetery of Death which took the shape of a giant greenish sphere slowly lifted off from the ground and soared high into the sky.
The element of death continued to gather towards the Cemetery of Death from all directions. Han Shuo, whose soul had formed a bizarre connection with the Cemetery of Death, flew the structure high into the sky. After identifying the direction, he flew it above the clouds and away from the Dark Forest.
As the Cemetery of Death was high in the sky, the faint green light that it gave off was unnoticeable during flight. Separated by such great height, no one on the ground would discover the abnormal flying object in the sky. Besides, the boundary around the Cemetery of Death had the ability to block the soul sensing power from experts. Therefore, Han Shuo was confident that no one would notice that big flying building of his.
Han Shuo charted a course and piloted the Cemetery of Death straight to his destination. Through the magical console in the Cemetery of Death, Han Shuo could see the view outside. After flying at full speed for a day, Han Shuo and the Cemetery of Death arrived at the Boundless Sea at the western shore of Profound Continent.
The Boundless Sea was a vast ocean. It was told in the legends that the ocean was the edge of the world. It was vast, remote, and uninhabited. Only ocean creatures could survive there.
After flying over the Boundless Sea for some time, Han Shuo discovered a region scattered with big and small uninhabited atolls. He noticed an island that resembled the shape of a gourd below him. When he unfolded his consciousness, he discovered that there were only sporadic weak and small wild beasts that inhabited the island. Hence he piloted the Cemetery of Death to slowly descend from the sky.
The earth shook more and more violently as he descended. Finally, the building plowed into the ground like an asteroid. It landed in the middle of a jungle and its underground section was buried just like it had been back at the Dark Forest. That boundary around the structure was still intact and functioning well. Not a human nor beast could detect the presence of the Cemetery of Death.
When the Cemetery of Death first lifted off from the Dark Forest, Han Shuo had taken certain meticulous measures so that the piece of land where his spirit demons were being refined would be carried along. Hence, when the Cemetery of Death now landed on this place, the formation that was refining his spirit demon remained in good condition and was supplying the three spirit demons with an unending stream of energy as before.
As there were an awful lot of trails and marks in the dense forest made by the Cemetery of Death’s descent, after exiting the Cemetery of Death, Han Shuo summoned earth elite zombie and wood elite zombie. The two of them worked together to rapidly reforest and patch up the area. Broken tree branches were reconnected and bumpy grounds were leveled.
Han Shuo hovered loftily in the sky. When he gazed at the surroundings, all he saw was a dark blue sky and an azure ocean that stretched beyond the horizon.
The warm ocean wind blew on his face. Ocean waves splashed at the coarse, rugged, and ancient cliff rocks. There were some seabirds and sea creatures resting and sunbathing on the cliff rocks. It was a serene scene.
There were also some huge fruits naturally growing on the gourd island. They were bright red and green in color and could be found everywhere on the island.
Merely gazing into the boundless ocean made Han Shuo feel rejuvenated. A feeling of heroism suddenly soared in his heart. The exceptionally beautiful scenery of the gourd island was able to lift his heavy mood from the ground. He thought that if the three ladies were there, they would surely fall in love with the place.
Han Shuo, who was in a great mood, unfolded his consciousness and spread it across his surroundings with the gourd island as the center. He wanted to see if he had any interesting neighbors.
The consciousness at the Nine Changes realm had an extensive coverage area. Han Shuo kept hush and focused on the task. The area covered by the consciousness grew wider and wider. Fishes, shrimp and magical sea creatures swam in the ocean, seabirds circled around in the air, and all kinds of life aura of sea creatures were registered by Han Shuo’s consciousness.
When the consciousness covered several dozen miles in radius, he suddenly detected a decently strong soul. When the soul detected Han Shuo’s probing, it became belligerent and transmitted an unfriendly message, “Get lost from my territory! This piece of the ocean is mine! Leave now or pay with your life!”
Han Shuo left out a soft cry of surprise and thought that the warning was laughable. From what Han Shuo’s consciousness sensed, he could tell that the soul wasn’t that of a human’s. Based on his mastery towards souls, Han Shuo was certain that the creature’s strength was about the same as Pegasus’. Although the creature could be considered a top-notch expert on Profound Continent, in Han Shuo’s eyes, it was as puny as an ant.
An expert of that level perhaps had never come across any existence as formidable as Han Shuo all its life on Profound Continent and therefore thought of itself as unequaled. The message transmitted by its soul also sounded extremely egotistical and brassy. Han Shuo merely ignored him. He continued to unfold his consciousness and spread it further into the distance.
“Huh?!” Han Shuo gasped as his consciousness was startled. Surprisingly, Han Shuo’s consciousness was met with an obstruction at a spot underneath an isolated island. There seemed to be a boundary present at that location that was obstructing his consciousness’ probing. Curiosity struck Han Shuo once more.
