Chapter 995: 508 Eternal life! Eternal life! (4000) Chapter 995: 508 Eternal life! Eternal life! (4000) For a time, the Southeast region of the Hong Li Empire was faced with a major upheaval.

At the Totem Temple in the southern Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, the returning Lava Wizards conveyed the will of the Totem King and began to rally the totem wizards active in the regions of the South. They called the elite back to the old nest to gather.

And they also notified the other Great Wizards to come and discuss matters together.

This sign of an impending storm made some supernatural forces around the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains quite apprehensive, fearing that the powerful Totem Temple was targeting them. Luckily, the Totem Temple’s attention was turned towards the East.

In the Eternal Islands, the Ripple masters experienced a major event as well. They began to recall their forces spread throughout the entire southeast of the Hong Li Empire, and even within the small island nations between the North and South Reef Continents. The Mother Tree had given birth to three Supreme Bone Rings, and it was clear that what followed would be a decision on who was worthy to inherit the Bone Rings.

The Door Organization, a secretive base in the Southeast sea territories, had several kings starting to gather their followers. Core members from both overseas and within the country continuously joined them, bringing their developed forces. The Magic Phoenix Saint Fist’s whereabouts were unknown, while Whale King Arlington was still healing in the Deadly Pass.

In the Anta Mountains, Black Rain Villa began to stir, as top-tier knight-ranked Eerie Night Guests kept returning. They usually operated alone throughout the Federation on their tasks, mysterious and solitary, rarely gathering. Now, clearly a significant event was imminent. Some who were there to join in the commotion idly counted the number of arrivals in front of the Baptism Church. To their surprise, they discovered that in the past week, close to twenty top-tier knight-ranked Markers had entered the Church. Adding the previous arrivals, it was feared that over two-thirds of the top-tier Knight Rank from Black Rain Villa had returned.

The storm was brewing, but it was uncertain whether it would be for better or worse.

However, what was certain was that it was a big event, a high-stakes event.

East Sea County, Huaifeng Region, Water Cloud Region.

The major Secret Martial Art Schools in these three coastal counties, upon receiving orders from their revered Elders or Gate Masters, sprung into action. They collectively exerted their influence, mobilizing various contacts and resources, and astonishingly assembled a convoy at the coastal ports. Among them were even two decommissioned Wind Sail Battleships from the Hong Li Empire Navy—mighty and tall, capable of carrying many people.

Having such warships, navigating through the fog and storms of the Eternal Islands would be somewhat easier. Of course, all those on board were high-level fighters.

Even if they fell into the sea, as long as they were near the coast, and could find the direction of the mainland, they could swim back with their terrifying physical strength and inhuman endurance! During this, as long as they didn’t encounter extraordinarily exaggerated waves or deep-sea monsters, everyone could return safely. For things like the Great White Shark, even in their oceanic home, they were creatures to be killed as sports by the people.

Besides the warships, the major Schools put a bounty with substantial rewards. They found several local fishermen familiar with the routes to serve as guides.

The Eternal Islands are perennially surrounded by fog and storms, making it a highly dangerous area. Sometimes, one could lose direction or even run aground on hidden reefs. There’s only a very short, safer period each year to enter. Clearly, that time was not now. Hence, heading to the Eternal Islands during the storm season was exceptionally dangerous, with a high mortality rate. Even skilled fishermen were reluctant to guide, after all, it was a gamble with their lives.

However, great rewards bring out bold adventurers.

It was indeed dangerous to set off for the Eternal Islands in the midst of the storm season, and the fishermen initially wanted to refuse, but the rewards offered by the major Schools were too substantial!

With so much money, it could support a family for ten generations.

Enabling progress with generous compensation, the process became exceptionally smooth. At least four or five old fishermen were willing to lead the way, and even a retired Navigator from the military had his eyes dazzled by the substantial gold. He had been a Navigator for twenty years, encountering various situations at sea, evidently quite the professional.

The major Schools were not picky; with so much money, they hired all of them.

Over the course of three to four days, one task after another was completed. By the time the fighter teams were about to depart, the road was already paved.

During this process, many Schools were very active, clearly under the instructions of their Elders and Gate Masters behind them. It was probably their intention to put in more effort so that when it came time to plunder the Boxing Method Armory, they could command more influence in the allocation process. If a bit of money could exchange for a powerful Secret Martial Art…

All the major Schools would be laughing madly; isn’t that like picking up a bargain?

In any case, the whole process was very smooth.

On August 6th, four days after the International Exchange Meeting concluded, there were still many fighters lingering in East Sea City. That morning, they came to Cafu Hall for a brief meeting to reconfirm the details settled over the past three to four days. There were no objections.

When the meeting ended, the fighters, each one exuding a strong aura, poured out of the gate like a shoal of sardines, striding like meteors towards their respective Schools.

Half an hour later, dozens of Secret Martial Art Schools set off at the same time, leaving East Sea City in horse carriages. They formed a convoy as long as a dragon on the wide roads, their destination clear: the coast of Huaifeng Region.

There lay the closest straight line to the Eternal Islands.

From the sky above, one could see on the endless green plains, the yellowish-grey roads busy with carriages racing joyously. One after another, they made up an imposing procession.
