I Am Overlord

Chapter 1657: Gathering of Various Island Powerhouses

From the old icemirror bird, Xiang Shaoyun learned that the path ahead of them was not smooth at all. They would have to go through terrifying natural disasters and numerous terrifying God Realm aquatic beasts. These beasts were much scarier than the old icemirror bird. Any carelessness could very well cost them their lives.

Furthermore, the nearer one was to the Illusory Island, the easier one could lose one's way. Slowly but surely, one would be trapped, doomed for all eternity. Xiang Shaoyun believed what the old icemirror bird told him. He had never thought that he and Little White were undefeatable. If they were to encounter the stronger ones among the Demon Gods, they could very well die.

He also learned from the old icemirror bird that what Yana said was correct. Once per 1,000 years, the Illusory Island would reappear in the world. That was the only time when the island could be found. Advancing toward the island before its scheduled reappearance was merely a waste of time and energy.

After learning all that, Xiang Shaoyun decided to spend some time on the Icemirror Island. It wouldn't be too late for them to set off when the scheduled time arrived. Naturally, Little White and Weili Yana had no objections. On the other hand, the old icemirror bird became incredibly gloomy. He definitely did not want them to stay on his island.

Weili Yana took advantage of the idle time to consume the icespirit fruit and start cultivating on the island. She could sense the big gap between her and Xiang Shaoyun. Furthermore, Xiang Shaoyun was treating her like a child. She had calmed down considerably and come to realize that perhaps only strength would grant her more opportunities to meet this man in the future.

Weili Yana possessed a rather incredible cultivation talent. After all, she was someone with a discerning heart, granting her a high comprehension. At a young age, she already had a grasp over the profundity of ice.

After Weili Yana was done with her cultivation session, Xiang Shaoyun couldn't help but give her some pointers, deepening her comprehension of the profundity of ice. With his guidance, she would soon be able to obtain an even deeper mastery over ice.

Meanwhile, numerous powerful warships were heading toward the Illusory Island from the various islands.

Each warship was manned by crew members no weaker than the Heaven Battling Realm, with some of them even being Gods. They all longed to enter the Illusory Island, believing firmly that countless god-grade treasures could be found on the island. Even the fabled seven-colored fantastical spring could be found there. The spring would grant them the seven-point discerning heart, bestowing upon them the ability to peep into the secrets of the heavens.

Of the various islands, the Divine Glacier Island, Water God Palace, and Snowrain Island were the three strongest islands. They had deployed a much larger number of Gods and Saints than the other islands for this event, and the three were the strongest representatives of the North Illusionary Sea as a whole.

The strongest expert sent by the Divine Glacier Island was the Divine Hand of Ice, Bing Ruogang. He was a heroic man who looked about 30 years old. His arms were encased in a pair of ice gloves, and clad in a white outfit, he looked confident and carefree. He was a fifth-stage Rebirth Realm cultivator.

The strongest expert sent by the Water God Palace was Lady Lan Shuirou. She was the Water God Palace's deputy palace master, an enchantingly beautiful fifth-stage Rebirth Realm cultivator.

As for the Snowrain Island's group, they were led by Grand Commander Xue Xiong, a sturdy man with an incredible strength granted by his ancient bear bloodline.

Apart from the three, there were also many other experts from the various islands, all of them speedily traveling across the sea. If they could reach the periphery of the Illusory Island, they would be able to make their attempt on the Illusory Island the moment it appeared.

Half a month before the scheduled reappearance of the Illusory Island, the warships of the 72 islands of the North Illusionary Sea were all gathered at a nameless island etched with some symbols. The nameless island was the nearest island to the Illusory Island.

This island served as a forward base for the expedition into the Illusory Island, a place established after countless attempts at entering the Illusory Island by their predecessors. With such a large gathering of humans, the aquatic beasts naturally started launching occasional attacks on these humans.

Some of the weaker humans couldn't even survive a single one of these attacks. Tsunami and storms also wreaked havoc around the island, as though the world was ending all around them. Space collapsed, and one cultivator after another perished.

The cultivators of the 72 islands were enveloped in despair upon witnessing the cataclysmic destruction all around them. Without the protection of the Gods among them, most of them wouldn't even be able to reach this far.

Meanwhile, Xiang Shaoyun and Little White also set off from the Icemirror Island, heading for the same nameless island. Traveling by flying above the sea without using any vessels, they encountered numerous aquatic beast attacks. Initially, they could easily deal with the attackers, but as they advanced, the aquatic beasts they encountered became stronger and stronger. Eventually, they could only flee instead of repelling the attackers.

One time, they nearly got themselves washed away by a sudden tsunami. That tsunami was no different than an attack from an actual God. Only after braving numerous hardships did the two reach the nameless island. The moment they arrived, they attracted the attention of everyone on the island.

The islanders had always been xenophobic, especially those from the stronger island nations. They greatly disliked seeing outsiders in their seas. As far as they were concerned, any foreigner was a bandit, here to shamelessly pillage and plunder.

"Who are you?" questioned someone.

Xiang Shaoyun and Little White did not even bother giving a reply. Rather, they picked an empty spot and settled down. They had been rather exhausted from their journey.

As for Weili Yana, she knew the internal situation of the 72 islands well. Thus, she hurriedly explained, "We're from Weili Island. I'm Weili Yana. This is my proof of identity."

A conch-like object appeared in her hand. That was the lifeconch, used by the islanders for the purpose of holding their life imprints. Upon seeing Weili Yana's lifeconch, they became much less suspicious of the trio. Of course, they were still doubtful how a weak island nation like Weili Island could actually send someone this far. It was rather bizarre.

Right that moment, a different voice rang out, "The other two need to show their proof of identity as well!"

The voice belonged to a middle-aged man. He radiated a chilly aura, and his eyes looked like the eyes of a viper. He was Teluo Basi, a Great Saint from Crystalrock Island. Crystalrock Island was a middle-range island among the 72 islands. For this expedition, their group was led by a second-stage God. Weili Yana was greatly frightened, not knowing how to explain their identities.

That left Little White to impatiently say, "Are you dumb?"

"Little bastard, what did you just say?" berated Teluo Basi.

"I asked you if you're dumb. If you're looking to die, just get over here. What's the point of only running your mouth around?" said Little White furiously.
