Chapter 102 Gate of Boundaries
After some further discussion, the group decided to go and check out the seventy-ninth floating island!
After all, Jade Island is where newcomers reside, while Bright Island exists almost entirely because of the Mountain and Sea Wonders Ranking.
The "Shan Hai Qi Wu Ranking" encompasses everything and is clearly a place for consumption, which is good in itself!
However, the list of strange items in the mountains and seas seems to have some regional discrimination. For example, even if you have enough emotional crystals, the items you can exchange for are quite limited based on your status as a resident of Qingyu Island or Guangming Island!
Many items require the identity of a resident of another island to redeem! Anyway, everyone still has some Emotional Crystals, so it's worth a look!
Yingzhao naturally had no objections. After everyone paid the travel fee, the Rainbow Bridge reappeared, and the group headed to the seventy-ninth island!
After dropping them off, Yingzhao made a move to leave. Chen Yang panicked and quickly said, "Boss Yingzhao! Don't go! How are we going to get back if you leave!"
"I still have to watch over the Last Island, I have no time to waste with you here! There are naturally places here that can send you away, just go directly to the center of the island! All eighty-one floating islands exist based on special buildings, such as Jade Island based on the Trial Grounds, and Bright Island based on the Mountain and Sea Wonders List! It's the same here!" After Yingzhao finished speaking, he turned into a beam of light and flew away!
"Lord Yingzhao, don't go! What will we do without you! We can't bear to part with you!" Even though Yingzhao had already gone far away, Chen Yang was still wailing and howling!
"Alright! Stop howling! They're all gone!" Jiang He said, rubbing her forehead.
Chen Yang quickly regained his composure, his expression changing swiftly, and said, "I was just exaggerating a bit, maybe that would leave a good impression on Boss Yingzhao!"
"Speaking of which, don't you guys feel something's wrong?" Wang Jianguo, who was usually silent, finally spoke up!
"Huh? What's wrong?" Everyone turned to look at Wang Jianguo, and Chen Yang was the first to speak.
"Didn't Yingzhao say that among the eighty-one floating islands, except for the End Island, if you don't have islander status, you'll have to pay a price just for staying on any of the other floating islands? On Bright Island, the price was emotional crystals, but what about here?" Wang Jianguo said quietly.
"When did you say that? If my memory serves me right, Yingzhao shouldn't have said that!" Kong Shizhang questioned.
Jiang He thought for a moment and said, "Ying Zhao did mention it, but it was when we first set foot on Bright Island. You hadn't entered the Mountain and Sea Realm yet, so it's normal that you didn't know!"
"That makes sense. After all, it's impossible for us to become islanders the moment we set foot on this floating island!" Jiang He said with a somewhat serious tone.
"Uncle Wang, Sister Jiang, don't scare me! This is getting weirder and weirder!" Chen Yang said.
"Maybe Yingzhao was just joking with you guys back then? It might not even be true!" Kong Shizhang said in a joking tone to ease the tension when he saw that things were getting a little awkward.
"It's not impossible, but what's certain is that this floating island is definitely different from Bright Island. After all, once we set foot on Bright Island, we were required to become islanders! We know so little about the Mountain and Sea Realm!" Jiang He remained calm and composed despite Kong Shizhang's words.
"Why think so much! Didn't Yingzhao just say that each floating island exists because of a special building? He also said that there's something that can take us away! Let's go take a look first! We'll figure things out when we get there!" Su Fan said at the right moment.
"Exactly, there's no reason for Boss Yingzhao to lie to us! Why think so much? Since we're here, let's make the best of it and get to work! I'm the main character, so even if there's any danger, I'm sure I can turn misfortune into good fortune!" Chen Yang said as he began to explore the floating island!
Since the group didn't have any better ideas, they began to explore as well!
"Look! There are so many doors over there!" Chen Yang said, pointing to a spot not far ahead.
"Let's go! Let's go take a look! This must be some kind of special building!" Kong Shizhang chimed in.
The group arrived at the door. "This thing is a special building! It's impossible to open!" Chen Yang tried to push the doors, but found that they wouldn't budge.
"Unlike the Ranking of Wonders of Mountains and Seas, it doesn't provide information immediately upon contact!" Su Fan said.
"Could it be that these doors are indeed special structures, but like a training ground, they require someone to oversee them in order to function? And the person in charge isn't here right now?" Kong Shizhang speculated.
"Yeah! Where is everyone? Didn't Boss Yingzhao say there was someone who could send us away? We haven't seen anyone along the way!"
"These can't be the unique decorations, can they? After all, Jade Island uses jade directly for decorations; the only thing this floating island's decorating style is is a bit ugly." Seeing no reaction, Chen Yang voiced his guess.
"Wanxiang Island has finally welcomed a newcomer!" Suddenly, an unfamiliar voice rang out among the crowd!
"Who? Who's speaking?" Wang Jianguo looked around suspiciously, but didn't find any life!
"Boss! We were sent by Yingzhao. Where are you? We can't see you!" Chen Yang shouted loudly, acting like a bully trying to intimidate the unknown entity, as if hoping to tell them that they had a powerful backer!
"Stop yelling! You want to enter the gate without even paying the price?" The voice rang out again, its tone disdainful.
Not far away, a tree transformed into a tailless black dog, which moved with incredible speed and arrived beside the group!
Trees transforming into human form is quite bizarre and fantastical, but this is the Mountain and Sea Realm! So it's quite common here. Not to mention trees transforming into human form, they've also seen strange phenomena like summoning lightning whips to injure people, controlling celestial bodies, riding the clouds and mist, and rainbows transforming into bridges, so they're used to it!
"Great sir! You must be the great being that Lord Yingzhao said could send us away! Please forgive us if we do anything wrong since we're new to your land!" Chen Yang squatted down without any airs, his gaze meeting that of the black dog Qiping that had appeared, and spoke.
"At least you have some manners! We can send you away, but each of the eighty-one floating islands offers its own opportunities, but also comes at a price. You're not planning to come here for nothing!" The black dog was satisfied with Chen Yang's attitude, but clearly didn't intend to buy it!
"What do you want, boss? We're just ordinary people anyway. Take whatever you want from me!" Chen Yang adopted a tough-guy attitude, ready to take whatever he wanted.
After all, he had some experience. People from the Mountain and Sea Realm are not to be trifled with. When Luo Jiuchuan first met him, his bad attitude made him feel the humiliation of kneeling down!
Yingzhao also used his thunder whip on any troublesome trial participants. After fighting with Luo Jiuchuan, Chen Yang realized that his strength was insufficient to act recklessly in the Mountain and Sea Realm, so he knew when to bow his head!
Although Chen Yang considers himself the protagonist, he's not stupid; he takes the initiative to mock everyone he meets!
