Chapter 3691: Main Island

Above the sea, three warships sped forward in a triangular formation.

Fang Heng stood on the deck of the central ship, gazing into the distance ahead.

With the blessing of the hell divine statue, the ship’s speed at full sail was already comparable to that of an undead Bone Dragon dragging them through the air.

It saved them quite a bit of effort.

Even so, it still took them an entire day to reach the Sea of Chaos.

The sea wind whipped their clothes loudly in the air.

Lyanna stood respectfully at his side and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, we have already entered the Sea of Chaos region. According to the planned route, we should soon see the Eye of Chaos."

The Sea of Chaos belonged to the outer sea region.

The sea monsters living in the outer sea were exceptionally ferocious and highly aggressive. Only under the protection of a grandmaster-level deity could a fleet avoid most sea monster attacks and sail steadily.

In addition, the Eye of Chaos existed within the Sea of Chaos.

The Eye of Chaos looked like a gigantic ocean vortex on the surface and possessed teleportation abilities. Ships could make use of the Eye of Chaos to greatly shorten their voyage.

"The Eye of Chaos was the result of the combined effect of deep-sea vortices and chaotic spatial power. Every Eye of Chaos possessed teleportation abilities, but required the protection of a divine statue. In addition, the destination of each Eye of Chaos changed over time. The teleportation points of every Eye of Chaos were only determined after repeated trials by our predecessors."

"The Island Lord of Sea God Island possessed a special ability to alter the Eye of Chaos and could change some of its teleportation nodes. So as long as we found the correct fixed Eye of Chaos, we would soon be able to enter the main island of Sea God Island."

"Mhm."

Fang Heng gave a faint acknowledgment and then asked, "Did Sea God Island already know about me?"

Lyanna replied, "Yes. I had already made contact with Sea God Island. They were greatly shocked by Your Majesty’s strength and believed you were a false god of some heretical faith. They were extremely wary of you."

"The Island Lord had already begun gathering representatives from the three Sea God Islands to meet and jointly discuss a plan to deal with you. Quite a few radicals had already proposed launching a joint attack against you and completely exterminating both you and the Oz Empire."

Fang Heng curled his lip and said, "Is that so... that fast?"

"Not that fast," Lyanna said. "The Island Lord of Sea God Island was Ansel. He had always acted cautiously and prudently. Before a complete plan had been discussed, Sea God Island would not act rashly. Besides, Sea God Island was still waiting for my return to deliver a full report."

Fang Heng asked, "Was my identity arranged?"

"Your Majesty, you would enter the island as my personal guard. As for the others, I’m afraid they could only remain aboard the ships for the time being."

"Mhm."

After thinking for a moment, Fang Heng asked again, "Lyanna, have you heard of Black Castle?"

Lyanna lowered her head and thought carefully for a moment before nodding. "I had some impression of it. I had heard that Black Castle had close ties with Aeonia, another main island that worshipped the Sea of Nature. I had seen some related reports. Black Castle had once planned to enter the Black Sea and attempt to explore the deep-sea world."

Fang Heng’s eyelid twitched slightly. "The Black Sea?"

"Yes. The Black Sea was a sea region that had not yet been fully explored. It was considered the entrance to the deep-sea world. It was extremely dangerous and filled with high-level sea monsters. In addition, once a ship entered the Black Sea, it would gradually break apart until it sank completely. Only a demigod-level divine statue could resist that power."

"Oh?" Fang Heng asked, somewhat surprised. "Sea God Island was actually willing to lend a demigod-level divine statue to Black Castle?"

"Under normal circumstances, certainly not. I believe Black Castle must have reached some kind of agreement with that main island."

Fang Heng said, "Help me gather some information related to Black Castle. I have use for it."

"Yes."

Very soon, the sailors in the ship’s sentry tower issued a warning, indicating that an anomaly had appeared on the sea ahead.

The sailors all turned to look toward the sea.

In the distance, a massive vortex had appeared on the ocean ahead.

"It was the Eye of Chaos. The other end of this Eye of Chaos connected to Sea God Island."

Lyanna raised her voice and said, "Do not panic. Activate the protection of the divine statue. We are entering the vortex. It will take us to Sea God Island."

"Understood!"

Howell shouted orders, "Slow down! Activate the protective barrier! Target the Eye of Chaos and continue forward!"

The ships slowly sailed into the Eye of Chaos.

The entire ship was swept up by terrifying ocean currents. Under the protection of the protective barrier, the surroundings were enveloped by seawater, and the oceanic space twisted strangely. In an instant, the ship seemed to pass through a marine passage.

Five minutes later, the ships passed through the Eye of Chaos, and the surrounding tides slowly receded.

Ahead, an island suspended in the sea had already appeared before them.

"Your Majesty, we have arrived. Ahead is the main island of Sea God Island."

....

The main island of Sea God Island was not large, and ships of all sizes were docked around the harbor.

The three ships slowly entered the harbor and came to a stop.

"Lord Oracle."

When the harbor guards saw Lyanna stepping off the ship, they all bowed respectfully.

"The Island Lord was already waiting for you in the reception hall."

"Good. Take me there."

Disguised as a personal guard, Fang Heng remained silent and followed Lyanna all the way into the large base located at the center of Sea God Island.

At a glance, tall towers stood throughout the base.

Lyanna entered the council hall of the palace to report on the journey to the Island Lord.

Fang Heng waited at the entrance.

While Lyanna was away, Fang Heng spread out his perception and probed the entire island.

Over there.

Fang Heng quickly focused his attention on a tower on the right side of the island.

The aura fluctuations of the divine statue were extremely obvious.

Before long, Lyanna finished reporting to the Island Lord.

According to the story Lyanna had prepared in advance, they had searched the Oz Empire for many days before accidentally discovering clues about Fang Heng, then left the Oz Empire to launch a proactive strike.

As a result, they were ambushed by Fang Heng midway.

The power of the deity Fang Heng worshipped was terrifying and possessed the ability to control undead creatures.

Tobias and Felix had unfortunately died in battle.

Lyanna led Fang Heng out of the main hall and said quietly, "People from the three main islands and the various branch islands will arrive one after another tonight. We will discuss countermeasures at the banquet. At that time, Your Majesty will be able to see the followers of Aeonia from the Sea of Nature. They should be very familiar with Black Castle."

Fang Heng then pointed toward a tower in the distance and asked, "What place was that tower?"

"That was the Tower of Oracle. Inside were stored Sea God Island’s divine statue as well as some of Sea God Island’s confidential records. It was not open to outsiders."

"Take me there to have a look."

"Yes."

Lyanna responded softly and led Fang Heng toward the tower.

The area outside the tower was silent.

Several guards at the entrance saw them approach and immediately bowed.

"Lord Oracle."
