...

Ordell operated the ship as it moved along and sailed back a bit, then it changed direction and instantly rushed towards the harbor of Menluo Island.

Their iron ship was like a shooting star. Its speed became faster and faster, and it went straight for the harbor.

"Whoosh!"

Then it suddenly stopped and steadily anchored in front of the harbor.

"Fuck! Who's messing around! Wanna die?" On the harbor, a large shirtless man cursed out angrily. He was drenched by the splash and got very mad.

After the man wiped off the water on his face and saw that a blonde man with blue eyes radiating terrifying pressure was staring at him coldly from the ship that splashed him, his expression immediately changed.

"Puchi!"

The shirtless big man that made an insulting remark suddenly felt as if a mountain was thrown on his chest. His eyes were popping out, and he fell on his knees.

Next to this big man, many warriors with superb capabilities were all silent. No one dared to say anything. They all lowered their heads and pretended they saw nothing.

He hurriedly apologized and pleaded, "I didn't see, Please forgive me, forgive me."

"Hmph!" Leylin snorted coldly as he looked around and finally said, "Tell me what is going on here, why are so many families and warriors are gathering to this place."

The guy was momentarily stunned and looked at them weirdly for not knowing about this famous news but he still put together his fists again, and smiled apologetically, "Please calm down, Sir. On the Menulo Island, a shocking incident happened. A massive earthquake made a seemingly bottomless trench on the island. At the epicenter of the earthquake, a chunk of ice suddenly blasted up from the ground. It is only a tip of the iceberg, but the cold aura its emitting is astonishing. There seems to be some mysterious signs floating around the tip, and no one knows what secrets it holds. That's all this servant knows. "

"It's alright." Leylin waved his hand, and smiled at Ordell, he said, "We should get going."

"Ok." Ordell nodded, and said lightly: "Let's go."

Leylin walked away with her.

"Young master?" After Leylin and Ordell left that short fat elder pondered for a second, then said "These two seemed to have been riding a Ying Yang Wonderland ship. This ship should be the one that was missing. The Yin Yang Wonderland has put out word that they would generously gift the one that captures the perpetrators that hijacked the ship."

"I know." James nodded, smiling. "If it weren't that I wouldn't have tried to crash into it but that man..."

"It was good that you let them go, Young Master. It would have been very difficult for us to capture them."

"Hmm.. That dangerous, does all elder feel that way!"

"Yes, that man is definitely dangerous and he may come from a rather extraordinary background and we are here for a different task it's better to not engage them unnecessarily. But we can still give the word about them to the Yin Yang Wonderland, and they would owe the Gunther family a favor?" The short fat elder said while stroking his beard.

The other elder thoughtfully nodded and said no more.

"Let's go, we can do that later as well but it's best to understand them and dig deeper in their identify before acting, else we offend a tiger for a fox. We should get to the island too. The people from the Magical Wonderland, the Wolfe family, and the Heaven Lake Divine Land should have arrived at the destination by now. We can't be left behind."

"You are wise, Young Master."

...

In a carriage pulled by a fire rhino, Leylin and Ordell sat face to face. At the head of the carriage, a skinny man intently whipped the fire rhino, a concentrated look on his face.

Menluo Island is a place of frequent volcanic eruptions. There are more than a dozen different sized volcanoes on this island. Every volcano will spew lava every once in awhile. Because of that, the Three Gods Sect, the Gunther family, and the Wolfe family never cared about this area. They let the few militant forces on the island take charge.

And currently this supposedly land of volcanoes suddenly an iceberg appeared!

Obviously there seems to be some mysterious signs around it too. which is incredibly strange but it is this anomaly that attracted very much Leylin. This is his destination.

'This is the last stop in my otherwise unhindered journey so far in Grace Mainland. After I acquire the infamous natural treasure of this world I would be on my own and without the help of any future knowledge.' Leylin thought as he calmly closed his eyes. Leylin only has the future knowledge about this world and the events leading upto here. This is where his heads up ends and afterwards he didn't had anymore information to draw any further plans upon but he wasn't afraid instead he was excited. He has already reached a power level matching the warriors at Sky Realm, which is already a top level warrior level. Spirit Rank warriors who stands at the very top of Grace Mainland are few and scarce, it's not easy to make from them to make move so, as far as the current Endless Sea situation goes Leylin is pretty much unhindered and without any obstacles in his journey.

"But I can feel that a storm is stirring...with all these forces that came to join the fun, it would be very interesting."

-------------------

At nightfall, red clouds filled the sky, and the earth was tinted red by the light of dusk.

The ground was devastated. Bottomless ditches were spread everywhere, like sword wounds on one's body. Under the sun's fading light, the ground looked like it was covered with a layer of blood, which looked a little creepy.

In the ditches, there were roots of many plants with the corpses of many demon beasts and humans. A light rotting odor was spreading from inside the ditches, giving off a nauseating smell.

A carriage slowly stopped at a far end of this piece of land.

"We're here." The coachman turned back and looked into the carriage. He hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I'll wait for you in this area. You should come back as soon as possible. I will not wait for long."

The carriage door opened and Leylin headed out.

After him a veiled Ordell slowly walked out of the carriage. They didn't bother with the coachman and walked straight towards that area with all the bloody crevices.

The land in that area was filled with bottomless ditches. The carriages wouldn't be able to go through.

In the ditches, the corpses of demon beasts and humans were giving a strong odor, which was not something any ordinary person could handle. It was reasonable that the coachman didn't want to come.

They walked forward without talking. On the way, they encountered many warriors of different ranks. They were also traveling on foot.

This place was originally a small town, but, due to the earthquake, all the houses collapsed and many people were buried alive. Some low level demon beasts from the nearby mountains were also struck by the disaster, and became corpses in the ditches.

Along the way, Leylin was quite indifferent, but Ordell was frowning the whole way. She covered her nose with her delicate hands. Clearly, she didn't like the smell here.

"Nauseating right?"

"Yes, it truly is and also pitiful."

"Yes, pitiful indeed. But this is the way of the world we live in, we walk forward and atop to topple those standing above us grasping the place that we consider should belong to us. We feel such entitlement because we work hard for it."

"In this world those who pertain to this cycle perishes and those who forgo this also perishes, it's a conundrum isn't it? But what we can take from this is a simple understanding that, with hardwork you might fail but without it you would definitely fail, like these people did. Sadly, their failure means their death."

"So you are saying even if someone wants to live a peaceful life without fighting for power, others might not leave them alone."

"Yes, you can say that in a sense, although most powerful people disdain to interact in such a way and waste time. Freedom, peace, silence, security, serenity all of these are rights and a commodity in this world and without power, one isn't guaranteed to possess any of them. Although commoners and weak people might live a life without any trouble but if trouble brews they don't have anything to lean upon and can only be trampled down, smashed to smithereens."

" I see..."

"It's an extraordinary world, Ordell even the natural catastrophe can evolve into something we need to be wary off, let alone them."

Ordell fell silent as she pondered on Leylin words, there were ditches everywhere, so the two had to be careful while walking. They moved through the higher points, around the long deep ditches.

Around them, three groups of warriors were also covering their noses and frowning. They observed their surroundings and carefully moved forward at the same time.

The three groups of warriors had a few dozen people. Most were at the Human and Nascent realms, with a few being Disaster realm warriors, but they were all of very old. Some were even white-haired.

These people should be either Menluo Island warriors, or from some insignificant forces from the neighboring islands. They were not exceptional people.

Within them, a few male warriors were lustfully glancing at Ordell while walking. There were also some that purposely dropped behind so they could stare at her alluring waist and butt, drooling all the while.

Leylin didn't care much, but when he realized that Ordell was repeatedly stealing glances of him, trying to see his response Leylin shook his head helplessly and he quietly used his Profound Qi to make some weak lightning attack zapping them into next week.

Leylin attack was so subtle that let alone them, even Ordell was only able to minutely feel it and it was mostly because she was paying attention to him.

"Thump!"

A fifty year-old man, whose eyes were the most perverted, suddenly stumbled and turned stiff dropping straight down into a ditch, making direct contact with the rotting corpses in the bottom.

"Thump! Thump!"

More warriors with impure thoughts in their eyes fell into the ditches, one after the other, making close contact with the demon beast corpses and the human corpses. Their bodies were covered with rotting odors.

Soon, warriors from the surrounding groups all realized this strange phenomenon.

Among those people, there were some skilled cultivators, but not even they could figure out what was going on.

Thus, when they looked at Leylin and Ordell again, their eyes were filled with more fear and respect. Those male warriors all stopped the lustful looks on their faces, and put on serious faces. They no longer dared to stare at Ordell.

"Oh you." Ordell lightly shook her head, as she seemingly said in frustation, "I'm already used to these looks. If I was like you and attacked everyone that kept looking at me, wouldn't I die from exhaustion?"

'So why the hell are you grinning ear to ear.' Leylin complained inwardly but he didn't opt to actually say it, instead he turned around and threw casual glare at those people, then he snorted coldly, "If we leave them alone they would get more and more bold, we need to establish a statement that we cannot be trifled with, otherwise they would start approaching us soon enough. Don't underestimate the allure of your breath taking beauty, it's something that people are willing to die for."

"Ah!" Suddenly after listening to him, Ordell blushed and stopped talking.

After two hours.

The two arrived at a crowded, noisy place. Here the ditches were so deep, it was as if they were bottomless, each being like a giant pit. They were dark and deep, and filled with countless corpses.

A prism-shaped iceberg poked out of one of the deep ditches, like a sharp sword. It was two thousand feet tall, and pointed straight up into the sky.

A chilling icy energy was spreading out from that iceberg. The closer you came to it, the cooler it felt.

Some lower ranked warriors could only watch from afar, as they couldn't dare to get too close to the iceberg.

The dozens of well-dressed warriors from the Magical Wonderland, the Wolfe family, and the Heaven Lake Divine Land were gathering around a thousand meters away from the iceberg. Their expressions were confused, and they were whispering to each other, as if quietly discussing something.

Ordell suddenly stopped and Leylin also stopped after her. At fifteen hundred meters from the iceberg, they gazed up to the sky above.

The iceberg was wreathed with a light cold fog. Under the setting sun's light, it gave off a bloody, red light. Inside the glistening iceberg, there were many strange signs hovering.

Those signs seemed to come from some secret spells, and they were swirling with bright colors and lights, and giving faint energy fluctuations.

This was only the tip of the iceberg. A bigger block of ice was hidden more deeply in the ground. It was unknown as to how big it was.

Ordell furrowed their brows while looking at the iceberg, then they secretly looked at the three groups of people closest to the iceberg. Their expressions were serious.

"The Sky Realm elder Chris Duncan, from the Magical Wonderland, the Saintess Razia Vulcan, from the Heaven Lake Divine Land, and Wolfe Jarrett, from the Wolfe family" Ordell pointed towards the three groups of people present there, and explained quietly about the backgrounds of those three people.

Following Ordell's finger, Leylin quietly looked towards the three groups of people.

The Magical Wonderland's Sky realm elder Chris was a big chubby guy. He had a beaming smile and tiny eyes. His face was full of fat, and the fat on his face shook and quivered as he talked. Beside him, there were twelve Magical Wonderland warriors. Their ranks include those who were at the Nascent to Nirvana realms.

The Saintess from the Heaven Lake Divine Land wore a white palace dress. The hem of the dress was decorated with beautiful triangular jade pieces. Her figure was enchanting and her skin was fair as snow. Although her face looked quite normal, her temperament was deep and profound, making her hard to figure out. Beside her, there were also seven Heaven Lake Divine Land warriors. They were all beautiful women. Five were in the Earth realm and two were in the Nirvana realm.

Wolfe Jarrett had a green robe on and his expression was cold. He was in the third sky of Nirvana realm, and behind him stood twelve warriors. One of them was an old lady that looked extremely young and lively. There was not a single wrinkle on her skin, and she was actually in the Sky realm.

The Magical Wonderland, the Heaven Lake Divine Land, and the Wolfe family didn't specifically send people here. They were all active in the nearby seas, and suddenly heard of the strange phenomenon on the island and, thus, they hurried here.

Leylin is usually very nonchalant about the introduction of different experts especially younger generation but these higher level warriors were worthy of his attention as he started and gauged everyone but when his eyes fell on Razia, Ordell snorted.

"Razia Vulcan is a very famous beauty in the Endless Sea. It's just that she usually wears a thin mask, and rarely shows her true face. A sainteses from the Heaven Lake Divine Land can never fall in love with a man in their lifetime, so the sainteses never show their true faces in front of men."

"I see." Leylin ignored the remarks of Ordell as well as her rather obvious signs and continued to glance at everyone spiting Ordell even more.

"There are so many people."

Suddenly James Gunther gentle voice came from behind.

Soon, James and the four Nirvana realm warriors from the Gunther family crossed through the scattered warriors and approach the iceberg. When he arrived at a thousand meters away from the iceberg, along with the Magical Wonderland, the Wolfe family, and the Heaven Lake Divine Land, they separated into four groups, each standing beside the iceberg.

"James, you're here too?" Wolfe Jarrett glanced at him, and forced a smile onto his cold face, "Are there any others?"

"Greetings, uncle Jarrett." James bowed, he smiled, "No, it's just us. I just happened to be at Gyro Island, and I heard something strange happened here, so I came to see. Uncle, you were here early, did you discover anything?"

Many surrounding warriors, once they heard James, all focused towards Jarrett.

"The mysterious signs in the Iceberg flowed with a constraining power. Our three sides already attacked the constraint together many times, but none of us has succeeded." Jarrett shook his head, "The constraining power is very unusual. We tried a couple of times and the constraining power finally seems to be loosening. Soon, we will try again. Hehe, you should contribute too."

"My pleasure." James smilingly nodded.

Then, James scanned the crowd, and quickly found Ordell and Leylin.

James eyes brightened, he smiled and nodded towards them, as a greeting.

Both of them had an indifferent expression, as if they didn't see him. They remained unmoved.

He didn't seem to mind, and he still kept that warm smile on his face but his eyes were full of venom as he glanced at Leylin but as soon as he did, he seemingly fell into an odd state where he witnessed a pair of cold terrifying vertically slit eyes milky blue eyes staring a hole at him.

They appeared as if they can stare straight into his gut. James shuddered and stepped back a bit, coming back to reality, looking away with beads of sweat all over his face.

"Young Master?" The short fat elder saw his abrupt change and asked.

"It's nothing." Before the four elders could ask any further, James immediately furrowed his brows and stopped them. He couldn't help but consider that he was hallucinating but...

"We should keep trying." Chirs Duncan suddenly spoke, his chubby face filled with a wry smile, "the sooner we break the secret of the iceberg, the sooner we can report back, or else, if we wait until more forces come, even if we find something in the iceberg, it will become shared by more people. Don't you all agree?"

Although He said it like that, his eyes only looked at Jarrett Wolfe, Razia Vulcan and Gunther James. He didn't look at the warriors scattered a thousand meters away.

In his mind, if there really was a secret in the iceberg, no one else had the right to share it.

"Alright." Jarrett nodded. He spoke to the warriors behind him "Everyone just has to try their best later."

All the rest nodded in agreement.

"Let's go."

Once Chris saw that these three sides agreed, without even looking at anyone else, a little silver hammer suddenly flew out of his sleeve.

A deep overwhelmingly heavy force came from that little silver hammer. The little silver hammer suddenly grew bigger in mid-air. Like a little silver mountain, it fiercely struck at the revealed tip of the iceberg.

"Are you going to compete as well Leylin?"

"I won't compete, because competition is against people at your level. Similarly to how these people don't put the lower level wandering warriors in their eye, I also don't put them in mine."

"That's a rather arrogant statement, even for someone like you."

"You would see, don't underestimate the last glory of my special treasure."

"Do you have to use it, you know the price. Isn't it better to sit this one out?"

"No, this is an opportunity we must seize. Don't worry, it's an investment I am willing to make without regret and I also understand the risk and rewards involved."

"Still.. "

"Ordell, trust in me and remember one thing, It's going to be okay."

"Okay, just be careful."
