Episode 16: Sea of Stars and Mist Chapter 27: The Secret Place

“Leaving Tearloe Island?” Linley was puzzled at the sound of that.

It had only been a few days since the last great war. Cecily had also just gotten married to Sequeira not long ago. How had she suddenly left Tearloe Island? Even if it was true that she had left. It should have been seen by someone. But in the past few days. I’ve asked a lot of people.

No one knows about Cecily. No one had seen her either.

“He’s lying!” Linley judged in his heart.

Why lie? In an instant, Linley had a bad feeling in his heart.

“Everyone follow me and set off.” Sequeira’s face was also gloomy at the moment, and after saying that, he was the first to walk alone towards the depths of the Faceted Yang Peak, and although Linley had doubts in his heart, he could only follow.

The mountain road was rugged, but Linley and the other nine people drifted forward.

A few moments, Lin Lei they came to a deep cave, which did not have a trace of sunlight within the cave, Sekhra first scampered into the deep cave, Lin Lei and the other eight people slightly hesitant. Linley and the other eight were slightly hesitant, but they went in as well.

“Young Master Sekera.” An Elder God spoke. “Where exactly is this Western Island secret place? This cave seems like it’s so deep that it can’t seem to reach the bottom.”

“Just follow me.” Sekera said indifferently.

Linley, Lomu, and the others, however, followed calmly. What were they afraid of? This Sekra was right in front of them. The two of them could easily kill Sekera. There was absolutely no fear of Sekera playing tricks. And Linley also knew from Tarosha. There were floating shadows hidden in that secret place.

“Linley.” A voice rang out in Linley’s mind.

Linley turned his head to look at Lomu beside him; it was Lomu who had just transmitted the voice. The corner of Liao Miao’s mouth turned upwards as he continued his divine sense voice transmission, “After watching you strike, I’m certain. The Four Divine Beasts Family is really living up to its name. I wonder what the strength of the Four Divine Beasts Family, the other three veins are?”

“What’s the point of asking so many questions.” Linley transmitted.

In reality, Linley himself knew very little about the Four Divine Beasts Family.

“Right. There’s no need to ask, we’ll know when we actually fight. When we come out of the secret land this time. Let’s compete first. And so on later. I’ll go to the Blood Peak Continent’s Yu Lan Mansion again. Look for the other three vein experts of your Four Divine Beasts Family to compete.” Although Liao Miao’s expression was cold. However, his eyes were shining.

Liao Miao was very much looking forward to battling against experts.

Linley couldn’t help but have a headache.

Coming out of the secret place. A match with this madman? It wasn’t that he didn’t like competing, but Linley himself knew his own strength. Encountering someone who specialized in material attacks was fine. Encountering someone who specialized in soul attacks would be disastrous.

Linley cursed in the bottom of his heart, “It’s really true, it’s crazier than the first time that Nilmons wanted to challenge an expert when he encountered one.”

At this point in time, talking with this Lomu’s divine sense voice transmission. With Linley’s speed, it was enough for them to advance several miles. It was enough to advance several miles, but the strange thing was. After traveling down this cave for several miles. They still hadn’t found the end.

“According to this depth, it should be inside Tearloe Island.” Linley said in his heart.

Suddenly Linley realized. The front of this passageway that had been going down was surprisingly full of water.

“It’s all water down there. Still going down?” Someone couldn’t help but speak.

“Just follow me, no nonsense.” Sekera was in a foul mood. Linley’s questioning at the Faceted Yang Peak had made his mood extremely bad, and the words Cecily had said before she died were even worse than Cecily being pregnant with someone else’s child. It was even more humiliating to him!

“Bubbling~”

Linley and the few of them followed Sequeira into the water. A shield formed around all eight of their bodies. It easily resisted the water.

“I didn’t carefully ask Tarosha where exactly this Western Island secret place was in the first place.” Linley also felt puzzled. The walls of this water-soaked passageway were filled with some green plants, and it was clear that this passageway had been water-soaked for a long, long time.

Suddenly-

The cavern went from downward to flat. There was even a hidden light at the end of this flat passage.

“It’s finally at the end.” Linley couldn’t help but feel a surge of pleasure in his heart as well. After leaving this underwater passage. It was the boundless world of water and earth.

“Eh? This Western Island Secret Land, it’s actually in the ocean?” Linley couldn’t help but speak in surprise.

Sekera sneered, “Very chi-long?”

Linley had also noticed. Ever since he had asked, this Sekra’s face had been ugly, and his temper was particularly short-tempered. Linley didn’t bother responding, fighting with this Sekhra was really more trouble than it was worth.

After flying through the seabed for a few moments, Linley and the others were shocked.

In the distance. A black, massive castle tens of miles square stood in the depths of the seabed. It was like a huge monster lurking there, and the most appalling thing was that densely packed figures were patrolling around the castle. The manpower was extremely large.

“This is our West Island’s secret place.” Sekera proudly said. “My Bagshaw family’s secret place! You guys are lucky to have the chance to come here.”

With that, a group of black-armored, black-cloaked guards flew over from the distance. Seeing this group of guards. Linley and a few others felt a chill in their hearts, these ten guards naturally exuded a fury, each with a cold expression.

“Every single one of them is an expert.” Linley was astonished.

Compared to the island guard warriors of Tearloe Island, these warriors in black armor and black cloaks gave off an aura of power, bravery, and indifference, and even that Lomu’s eyes were narrowed. Looking carefully at the black castle in the distance.

“A family’s men and horses, there are so many of them!” Linley’s heart was shocked.

There were thousands of people that his eyes alone could see. Every single one of them was an upper level deity, and all of them were considered good upper level deities. Not the Island Protector warriors. The sort of level that any random upper level deity could assume.

“Young Master Sekera.” The leader of that squad saluted.

“They’re all here. Let’s go.” Sequeira said indifferently, and the ten black-armored guards immediately led Linley and his group. Moving towards the black castle, the gates of the black castle were also wide open.

Deep under the sea. This black castle had existed for an unknown amount of time.

The most bizarre thing about it was that-

The black castle seemed to have a bizarrely earthly power that actually eschewed seawater, all seawater couldn’t even come close to the black castle by a mile, it was as if, there was a transparent cover that protected the ancient castle and propped up all the seawater outside.

Linley and the others entered within the waterless area.

“Huh?” Everyone was astonished. Lomu’s eyes also lit up in amazement.

Linley turned around and looked carefully. However, he didn’t find any special cover at all, “It’s really nothing.” With entering inside the black castle. Seeing the large number of guards in the black castle. Linley was also shocked.

“This. I’m afraid this is the real power of the Bagshaw family.” Linley’s heart was dark. Shocked.

Inside the black castle. An empty square. Linley and the eight of them stayed here.

“You guys wait for a while, someone will be here in a little while.” Sekra said indifferently. “Whether or not you guys have a chance to go into the secret land. It has to be tested.” After saying that, this Sekera himself turned around and left.

His mission was accomplished.

“Test?” At once, someone was puzzled.

“Didn’t you say that we can come to the Secret Land to view it if we win a hundred victories? Why is there still a test?”

Hearing those people murmur. Both Liao Miao and Linley remained silent. Linley he was clear that there was this hurdle of inspection, Linley looked around, there were also a large number of black-armored guards patrolling the citadel on the ground above the square, the entire citadel was as if it was a military fortress, it was very strict.

Just wait a moment. In front of the square, there was a ten-meter-high, ancient, dark green door that opened with a bang.

“Squeak ~” the dark green door opened. The unpleasant sound of friction on the ground was emitted.

Six people walked out from within the gate. The first one had white hair and a white beard, wearing red armor and a red cloak, and the five people behind him were all in black armor. Yet they were also clad in red cloaks.

“Welcome everyone!” This white-haired and white-bearded old man came first and laughed aloud. “Come to Handyside Castle! Introduce yourself, my name is Yurai!”

Castle Handyside?

A trace of doubt welled up in Linley’s heart.

“Although it is said that anyone who has won a hundred victories in the Fighting Martial Arena can come to the secret place.” You Lai laughed. “But the floating shadows in the secret land. Not everyone who comes can see it. If you want to see it, you still need to be tested.”

“Floating shadow, what floating shadow?” Lomu said.

“The battle of the seven-star demons, the Shura vs. Dimensional wars. Even the floating shadows of the Lord God striking the earth!” You Lai smiled, “This is the accumulation of my Bagshaw family for countless years!”

The moment these words came out. Those people’s eyes lit up, even Liao Miao’s eyes lit up, and Linley sighed darkly, this kind of floating images of superpowers battling each other. It did indeed have a staggering appeal.

“Now one by one, you will come out and compete against my people, and I will base my decision on your performance. Judge whether you are qualified to go in and watch.” Yurai glanced at one of the people at his side. At once the cold, bald, burly man in black armor with a red cape stepped forward.

You Lai reached out and pointed at a Hundred Victory Upper God and said, “You go first.”

“Good.” That Hundred Victory Upper God laughed twice and walked up. “You can’t blame me for killing him.” This Hundred Victory Upper God was wearing a blue robe. It had thick eyebrows and big eyes.

“You can kill. Feel free to do it.” You Lai smiled faintly.

At once, this blue-robed Upper God. and the bald, burly man both arrived at the center of the square, the two of them facing each other.

“Begin.” You Lai gave an order.

“Boom!” The blue-robed Elder God’s entire body instantly transformed into an endless blazing fire light, the blazing heat even made the air emit a ‘snorting’ sound, and then, that endless fire light even converged into a flaming arrow, and this flaming arrow was then suspended in the square’s mid-air, emitting a palpitating pressure.

“Whoosh!”

The flame arrow shot out like a meteor.

“Hmph!” That bald and strong man let out a low humph, his whole body immediately surfaced with earth yellow armor, his huge fist was flowing with ripples, and he blatantly smashed his fist fiercely on that flame arrow.

“Peng!” A low rumbling sound, the square all faintly trembled.

The streams of light on that bald and burly man’s fist shattered. Even the entire fist exploded into crumbs. Even the earth-colored armor on the surface of his body had cracks. The entire person could not help but take several steps back. The ground was shattered.

And that fire-red arrow also collapsed. That blue-robed Upper God’s face was white at the moment, but he stood resolutely.

“Not bad.” The white-haired and white-bearded You Lai nodded. “You are qualified to enter the second secret room.”

“The second secret chamber?” The blue-robed Upper God was puzzled.

“Yes, the secret room is divided into the second secret room. The first secret room, there are more floating shadows in the first secret room. The strength of the experts in the floating shadows is also stronger.” You Lai blandly said.

“Then how do I qualify to enter the first secret room?” That blue-robed Upper God was a bit unwilling.

“One strike. Kill him.” You Lai pointed at the bald, burly man.

That blue-robed Elder God instantly gave up.

Linley couldn’t help but be stunned when he heard this, “Does the leader of this castle land not take human lives seriously? Can his own people be sacrificed at will?”

“Next. You.” Yurai pointed to a Medium God.

“Don’t be so troublesome.” A cold voice rang out, and Lomu directly walked forward. Looking at You Lai indifferently, “Let me go first, didn’t you say that killing him with one strike. Then you can enter the first secret room. Right?”

That You Lai looked at Liao Miao in amazement. Then laughed, “Your name is Lomu. Right?”

Lomu nodded bashfully.

“You don’t need to test the ground.” You Lai shook his head and laughed, “Of the eight of you, you as well as the red-robed elder Linley. None of them need to be tested. It’s possible to directly enter the first secret chamber for viewing.”

Linley couldn’t help but smile.

“But opening the secret chamber. It’s a very important matter. We need to apply to the fortress lord. Then unify the time, so you guys go rest first. We’ll go inform you all soon.” With that, You Lai arranged for a person to lead Linley and Lomu to leave first.

Following this black-armored, red-cloaked escort. It also dawned on Linley in his mind.

“It’s not that the castle chief doesn’t take human lives seriously. Rather, when they encounter a true expert, they don’t even need to be tested.” Linley was also looking forward to it in his heart. The moment to go to that secret room to view the many floating shadows would come sooner.

The black castle was very large. Thick walls. Stripes of passageways that were complicated.

“Captain Moab. I have been waiting here for almost a month. Why doesn’t the lord he see me?”

“What’s your hurry, the lord will see you if he wants to. Otherwise you’ll just stay here.”

Linley couldn’t help but frown when he heard voices coming from around the forks in front of him, “That sound is so familiar!”

The front was precisely the four forks of the road. There were two people walking out from one end of the fork in the road in front of them. One of them was wearing a green robe. There were also fish scales on his face, and he was currently talking continuously with another guard wearing black armor and a red cloak. With that, these two entered the other end of the fork in the road.

“Gammontain?” Linley’s face was filled with disbelief, “Why is he here?”

The dagger stopper was none other than Gan Montin, who had hijacked Linley and the others on the Sea of Stars and Mists to offer Olivia to the ‘Lord Commander’!
