Chapter 604: Chapter 601: What is a Monster?!_1
Many people could not imagine Yang Chen breaking through to the eighth island, but similarly, they also found it hard to believe that Yang Chen, after passing the eighth island, remained calm on the eighth island.
This eighth island was different from the sixth island.
“The eighth island is inhabited by holy ants!” Yang Chen sat in the center of the Stone General Array Disk, looking around at the assembled ant tribes as if watching a spectacle because these holy ants could not harm him in the slightest.
The Holy ants were stronger than the Red Blood ants, being an elite race among the ant tribes. The word “holy” represented everything; it was said that wherever the holy ants were, other ant tribes would obey them. Holy ants were born stronger than other ants, with greater authority than other ants.
Just like the position of the Black Dragon Sect among the various forces, the status of the holy ants in the ant tribes was the same, not the strongest, but already very authoritative.
However, it was still the same.
The strength of these holy ants ranged from the first level of the Origin Martial Realm to as high as the sixth level of the Origin Martial Realm!
With such strength, thousands of them attacking together would be unimaginably terrifying, simply driving people to despair. Moreover, considering the more powerful innate abilities of the holy ants compared to other ant tribes, it is no wonder that Qingyin and Luo Yunhu both failed on this eighth island.
It couldn’t be helped, as holy ants were indeed very powerful.
However, none of this mattered to him.
Why would he be afraid of these holy ants with his Stone General Array Disk?
You have to know that his Stone General Array Disk is said to be unbeatable even for those at the True Martial Realm.
The power of so many holy ants combined would indeed be comparable to the True Martial Realm, even stronger than ordinary True Martial Realm practitioners. But so what? As long as these holy ants’ combined power did not exceed the third level of the True Martial Realm, they could not harm him.
But obviously, while the combined power of so many holy ants was enough to be comparable to the True Martial Realm, it was impossible to surpass the True Martial Realm’s third level. If they had reached that level, Luo Yunhu and Qingyin would have died long ago, without even a chance to call for help.
Yang Chen was very laid-back at this time, allowing these holy ants to bite him freely, while he stayed in the Stone General Array Disk, without any issues.
Black Dragon Sect members, who controlled the prohibition of Desperate Island, saw Yang Chen’s situation in their eyes.
They looked at the scenes projected by the prohibition, and in these scenes, was it not Yang Chen sitting in the Stone General Array Disk, whistling, and looking extremely relaxed?
This made the senior members of the Black Dragon Sect who were responsible for the prohibition of Desperate Island grit their teeth in anger, staring at each other, not knowing what to do.
“What kind of treasure did Yang Chen take?”
“With this treasure on him, he feels no pressure at all on the eighth island.”
“Going on like this, Yang Chen will not only be able to stay on the eighth island for one hour but may even stay for a few more hours without any issues.”
At the time of the discussion, an elder said, “Well, let’s keep him inside for a few more hours. I don’t believe that the defense of his Stone General Array Disk cannot be broken. Everything has a limit, and the Stone General Array Disk is no exception. It will eventually be taken down by wave after wave of holy ants!”
“Hmph, you’re taking this lightly. Wait another hour? Ha, do you think the people outside are fools? Each of the eight islands represents eight hours, and if Yang Chen hasn’t come out after another hour, do you think that the people of Beishan Main City won’t question it? Beishan Main City is not to be trifled with. Once the people find out that our Black Dragon Sect is secretly involved in Desperate Island, affecting the balance, our sect will not be able to withstand it. Do you understand?”
This made the white-haired elder furious, “What should we do? When Yang Chen wanted to give up, we all pretended we didn’t hear it. Who would have known that this kid has been hiding this treasure? If we had known earlier, we would have let him leave Desperate Island.”
These people looked at each other with regret.
What the hell were they doing?
If they had known that Yang Chen didn’t want to continue when he reached the sixth island, they could have just let him leave, couldn’t they?In the end, Yang Chen was pushed to his limit. The result was obvious – when Yang Chen was forced into a corner, he took out a treasure, and no one could do anything about it. With this Stone General Array Disk treasure, not only the seventh island but also the eighth island posed no problem for him.
“What if we let him out now?”
“Are you kidding? We don’t know what’s going on now. Once Yang Chen leaves, we’ll just blame it on the prohibition malfunction. If we let Yang Chen out now, how do we explain the fact that Yang Chen voluntarily gave up earlier, but we didn’t hear anything about it? Isn’t that just asking for trouble with our Black Dragon Sect?”
“This… ”
Everyone present was extremely troubled.
What should be done?
As these high-level members of the Black Dragon Sect were pondering, Fu Longyue’s heart began to fill with a growing sense of unease.
It was because Yang Chen had been on the eighth island for nearly an hour, and the lamp still had not gone out.
If the lamp went out, it would mean that Yang Chen was dead.
But the lamp had not gone out yet. What did that mean?
It meant that Yang Chen was still alive and kicking on the eighth island.
He immediately used his soul to transmit sound to find out the situation of Yang Chen on the eighth island. Upon finding out, he realized what was going on.
“Sect Leader, what should we do? Shouldn’t we release Yang Chen after an hour?” The high-level members of the Black Dragon Sect transmitted their sounds.
“Hmph, are you an idiot? If we don’t let him out, how do we explain this to other forces?” Fu Longyue scolded.
He was filled with hatred in his heart, and he couldn’t have imagined that Yang Chen would be so at ease on the eighth island. He could only transmit a sound immediately: “For now, let’s just watch and see how things unfold. If this kid really makes it through the eighth island, we’ll have no choice but to let him out.”
Fu Longyue cursed inwardly, and he was naturally a hundred times unwilling to let Yang Chen out.
However, as the saying goes, what you fear, comes true. Fu Longyue was extremely unwilling for Yang Chen to pass through the eighth island. But contrary to his wishes, by the end of an hour, Yang Chen was teleported out of the eighth island.
When he was teleported out, he appeared in front of the Teleportation Array, where the Black Dragon Sect entered Desperate Island.
Lady Silver Bell was there to receive him, and the other geniuses were waiting at the location as well.
At this moment, Lady Silver Bell’s face was full of bitter smiles, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. She said gracefully, “Congratulations, young friend Yang Chen, for successfully passing through the eighth island of Desperate Island and becoming the second person to fully conquer Island of Deadly Fate after our Sect Leader!”
As soon as these words fell, the geniuses who were initially doubtful and unsure of which island Yang Chen had reached, were all plunged into shock.
“Oh my god, the eighth island!”
“I didn’t even make it through the fourth one!”
“It’s really infuriating to compare oneself to others.”
The Holy Lady of Blue Lotus Sect looked at Yang Chen, her gaze deep and silent.
As for Luo Yunhu, his brows were furrowed, and he gritted his teeth with anger clouding his face.
