Chapter 959

Arriving at Jia Shen Island

In the boundless Sea of Bitterness, terrifying black waves rolled and soared into the sky. It was as if there was a huge black dragon hidden in the Sea of Bitterness, roaring and tossing on the surface of the sea from time to time. It was a magnificent scene.

Whoosh!

A huge sailboat broke through the countless black waves like a bolt of lightning, passing through the countless waves and sweeping into the distance.

On the other side of the Sea of Bitterness, a vast piece of land was faintly discernible in the black waves. It seemed so close yet so far away.

When the Boundless Sailboat gradually approached the piece of land, many cultivators on the deck also started to notice the faintly discernible piece of land in the distance.

When the sailboat was ten miles away from the piece of land, many cultivators on the deck realised that the piece of land was actually an island. It was just that the island was too huge. If they didn't observe it closely, they wouldn't have realised that it was just a huge island floating in the Sea of Bitterness.

"Is the outer courtyard of the Jia Shen Academy on this island?" Many cultivators couldn't help muttering as they stared at the huge island before them.

The Jia Shen Academy was an extremely mysterious existence to the cultivators of the Eastern Lands on the other side of the Sea of Bitterness. The Nine Netherworld Realm was even more mysterious and illusory. It was rumored that the Nine Netherworld Realm existed in the deepest part of the Sea of Bitterness.

However, the Sea of Bitterness was boundless, with no end in sight. Even the Boundless Sailboat in the Desolate Ancient City might not be able to reach the end of the Sea of Bitterness. In other words, it was unrealistic to rely on oneself to find the Nine Netherworld Realm.

If outsiders wanted to enter the Nine Netherworld Realm, they would have to be led by someone from the Nine Netherworld Realm. Outsiders wouldn't be able to find the entrance to the Nine Netherworld Realm.

Jian Mu, who had relied on his own strength to cross the Sea of Bitterness, should be a cultivator from the Nine Netherworld Realm. Crossing the Sea of Bitterness meant returning to the Nine Netherworld Realm alone.

Other than having a cultivator from the Nine Netherworld Realm lead the way, there was another method, which was to enter the Nine Netherworld Realm through the outer courtyard of the Jia Shen Academy. This could be considered as a shortcut to enter the Nine Netherworld Realm.

At this moment, the Flame Emperor, Zhuowen and the other geniuses of the Yan Xuan Empire were gathered on the deck. Their gazes were all looking at the huge island before them, with hope in their eyes.

They were about to arrive at the Divine Institute. This was the thought in the hearts of many martial artists.

"Who would have thought that the Divine College would be located on an island. Also, this Bitter Sea is really huge, as far as the eye can see." Five Elements Sect's Que Tu said casually.

"The Sea of Bitterness is boundless, and no one knows how big it is. Moreover, in this huge Sea of Bitterness, there isn't just this one island in front of us. There are many other islands. This Boundless Sailboat can carry tens of thousands of people. Not all of them will go to the island of Fine God Academy, but some will go to other islands."

The Flame Emperor explained faintly, which piqued the curiosity of Zhuowen and the rest. They did not expect that there was more than one island in the Sea of Misery. It seemed that the Sea of Misery was not as simple as they had imagined.

Zhuowen nodded in agreement. In the three days that he had been in the third class cabin, he had seen many older martial artists. There were even some martial artists who were carrying some specialties and items from the outside world. The goal of these martial artists was definitely not the Divine College, but the other islands.

Perhaps they were bringing the items from the outside world to the other islands to trade for things like spirit stones. After all, the outside world was much bigger than the Sea of Misery, and there were many different types of items.

Looking at the Bitter Sea, it was a barren land, and there were not many martial artists. Naturally, it was not as rich as the outside world.

If they were to sell the items on the other islands, the price would be several times higher.

While Zhuowen's attention was on the island in front of them, a cold gaze was cast on Zhuowen, causing Zhuowen's gaze to freeze. He turned his head and met the gaze of the owner of the cold gaze.

The owner of the gaze was no stranger to Zhuowen. It was the Third Prince of the Yaoguang Sacred Dynasty, Yuansheng, who had a conflict with Zhuowen three days ago.

Seeing Zhuowen looking over, Yuansheng's gaze was cold, and he immediately turned his head away.

Zhuowen's eyes flashed coldly. If this Yuansheng did not know what was good for him and provoked him again, Zhuowen did not mind eliminating the source of trouble. Although the Emperor's aura on Yuansheng's body was terrifying, it could only threaten ordinary Heavenly Masters. If Zhuowen was in his Demon State, he would not be afraid of the Emperor's aura at all.

Whoosh!

When the ship was three miles away from the island, a figure suddenly rushed out from the cabin below the ship. He stepped on the void and came to the deck, a pair of sharp eyes staring at the island in front of him.

This person was about 95 years old, and he was dressed in coarse clothes. He looked ordinary, but the aura he exuded made many people tremble. This person was definitely a terrifying Emperor Realm master.

"Drop the anchor!"

When the ship was one mile away from the island, the master floating above the deck finally spoke. Then, with a wave of his sleeve, a terrifying Yuan Power surged out and turned into eight huge palms. Like the tentacles of an octopus, they swept towards the ship in all directions.

Clang!

The sound of chains colliding rang out. Then, the eight palms pulled out eight huge anchors from the ship's surface. The eight palms exerted force and the eight thick anchors were plunged into the water.

Buzz! Buzz!

Buzz! Buzz! A loud sound of friction rang out, and the Boundless Ship's speed gradually came to a stop.

At this moment, they were only half a mile away from the island. On the shore of the island, there was already a group of people wearing the same uniform waiting. They were probably the people from the Fine God Academy who had come to receive the geniuses.

"Open the seal and lower the viaduct!"

The Emperor Realm master in the air roared again. The purple halo above the deck faded, and a half-mile long viaduct was formed in front of the ship.

"We have arrived at the Fine God Island. Our destination is the outer court of the Fine God Academy. Passengers may disembark. Remember, you must walk on the viaduct."

Once these words were spoken, some of the young martial artists were already impatient. They did not follow the Emperor Realm master's words and directly flew towards the shore.

"Ah!

Ah! "

Suddenly, three screams rang out. The first three young martial artists who flew out seemed to be affected by a terrifying gravitational force the moment they stepped off the ship. One after another, they fell into the Bitter Sea.

When they fell into the Bitter Sea, a terrifying corrosive force spread throughout their bodies, making them unable to resist. Their bodies were slowly corroded, from their feet to their bodies. Finally, they turned into a pool of black water.

Hiss! Hiss!

Gasps could be heard one after another. Originally, there were many cultivators at the back who thought it was troublesome and wanted to directly cross the Sea of Bitterness to reach the shore. But now, all of them stopped in their tracks, their legs trembling, and they didn't dare to take another step.

"The Bitter Sea is a cursed sea. Above the Bitter Sea, there is an extremely terrifying gravitational force. Martial artists below the Emperor Realm who wish to fly above the Bitter Sea are simply courting death."

The Emperor Realm master hovering above the deck glanced indifferently at the martial artists who had turned into three pools of black water. He slowly opened his mouth and continued, "Even Emperor Realm masters will not be able to hold on for long if they fall into the Bitter Sea. If you think you are strong enough, you can fly like the three people just now. There is no need to walk on the viaduct."

As soon as these words were spoken, many people cursed in their hearts. Three Exalted Realm cultivators had died for no reason. With such a precedent, how could they possibly treat their own lives as a joke?

Hence, the martial artists on the deck followed the viaduct in an orderly manner and slowly walked down the shore. The Flame Emperor also brought Zhuowen, Mo Lingtian, and the rest. They blended in with the crowd, looking very ordinary.

After all the martial artists on the deck had disembarked, the Emperor Realm master on the deck shouted again and steered the Boundless Sailboat towards the other islands.

Once the Boundless Sailboat left, everyone's gaze landed on the group of people wearing uniforms on the shore. They knew that this group of people should be the martial artists sent by the Divine Academy to receive them.

However, what surprised everyone was that this group of 75 people were all at the Heavenly Venerate Realm. The weakest was at the initial stage of the Heavenly Venerate Realm, while the strongest was at the peak of the Heavenly Venerate Realm.

Moreover, these 75 people were not old. The average age was no more than 85 years old. They should be students from the Outer Academy.

This group of people was led by a man and a woman. The man was cultured and elegant, and his actions were appropriate. The woman was charming and had good looks. They could be considered a perfect match.

The man walked forward with a smile and said, "You must be the juniors who came from the outside world to participate in the Outer Academy Assessment.

My name is Cheng Dong, and I'm likely to become the senior of many of you. This time, the Outer Academy sent me to receive you. "

"So it's Senior Cheng Dong. When I was in the Yaoguang Holy Dynasty, I often heard of Senior Cheng Dong's name. You are a genius on the Heavenly Venerate List."

Cheng Dong's eyes lit up. He stared at Yuansheng and said, "You are from the Yaoguang Holy Dynasty?

How are Yuan Zhao and Yuan Kong related to you? "

Yuansheng raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile, "They are my brothers!

Yuan Zhao is my eldest brother, and Yuan Kong is my second brother. "

"So that's how it is. Your eldest brother and second brother are very talented. In the test a few days ago, their results were very good, and they were crowned as monsters. It's worth mentioning that your eldest brother, Yuan Zhao, is very talented. I believe it won't be long before he can enter the Heavenly Venerate List," Cheng Dong suddenly said with a smile.

"Eldest Brother and Second Brother both passed the test?" Yuansheng's face flushed red, and his eyes were filled with excitement.

Many cultivators in the surroundings looked at them with envy. The Yaoguang Holy Dynasty was indeed worthy of being one of the seven strongest forces in the outside world. Yuan Zhao and Yuan Kong's talents were actually praised by Cheng Dong. Moreover, this Yuansheng's talent was also not weak. It was likely that he would also be able to enter the Outer Academy.

"Blue Whale Holy Dynasty's Blue Smoke greets Senior Cheng Dong!"
