"Hey, this island is so big, and it's an archipelago!"
Yang Si's voice rang out, his tone full of shock.
Ye Li could now see the whole picture of the island. For some unknown reason, the fog that had clearly covered the entire sea area suddenly dissipated inexplicably near the island.
The entire island seemed to be protected by some force, preventing the fog from spreading.
"Captain, what's going on? Why is there no fog above the island?"
Ye Li asked.
Yang Si said: "Brother Ye Li, you don't know that there is a strange phenomenon in the entire Chaos Sea, that is, all the islands are not shrouded in fog.
There was no fog on the islands we visited before, and the same is true for this archipelago.
But what puzzles me now is why our outpost fortresses were attacked so fiercely even though they were built in such a vast archipelago area."
When Ye Li heard Yang Si's words, he was stunned. He didn't quite understand what Yang Si meant.
"Captain, why is it that the island is so large and won't be attacked fiercely?"
Ye Li asked with a puzzled look on his face.
Yang Si glanced at Ye Li, knowing that he didn't understand, so he explained: "Brother Ye Li, think about it, we are constantly exploring the endless sea, and every time we pass a certain distance, we land and clean up the islands we encounter, then build a fortress as a stronghold and set up defensive fortifications.
Well, if the island is very small, the fortifications we can deploy will naturally be very incomplete, and the fortresses we can build may also be small and have weak defensive capabilities.
But if the island is very large, or like an archipelago like this one, we can build a defense network to cover the entire area.
At the very least, even if a monster swims over to attack us, such a large area is enough for us to set up a formation and fight back.
I am just wondering what is attacking our outpost fortress that requires us to mobilize all our forces to defend it. Is it really the existence of other humans as we have deduced?"
After hearing Yang Si's explanation, Ye Li immediately understood. It was indeed the case. This island was large enough to build a complete defense system that could even withstand a tide of beasts.
Moreover, this is in the ocean, how is it possible that a monster would swim over and land
As they were talking, everyone had already rowed to the shore. After quickly landing on the shore, everyone immediately gathered together and began to rush towards the outpost fortress under the leadership of the leaders.
While hurrying on the road, Ye Li listened and found that there seemed to be no sound of fighting on the island.
Soon, Ye Li saw a huge fortress standing at the highest point of the island not far away. On the fortress stood talisman masters wearing costumes of the four major holy places. Obviously, they were all their people.
Since people from the four holy places are in the fortress, it means there is no problem with the fortress. I wonder why they dare to come to support.
They quickly arrived in front of the fortress, and the people inside saw them. An old man walked out of the fortress quickly.
Judging from his clothes, he is obviously from the Imperial City.
Yang Si took a look and whispered, "This is the Grand Elder!"
Hearing Yang Si's words, Ye Li was slightly stunned, then he reacted.
The so-called supreme elder is actually the person who served as an elder in the past. When he is old enough and has a high enough level of cultivation, he will hand over power to the younger generation, while he will devote all his energy to cultivation and become the strongest fighting force in the sect.
"Uncle Xue, what's the situation? What about the attack you mentioned earlier?"
The old man surnamed Bing took a step forward and greeted the Grand Elder.
Ye Li was stunned when he heard this. The old man surnamed Bing looked old enough, but he didn't expect that he would call the supreme elder "uncle". This really surprised Ye Li.
"It's Xiao Bing. We have already won the previous battle. The people sent by the other side have all been beaten back under the joint defense of our four families.
In order to find out the location of the enemy's lair, our people basically followed them out. It seems that if we continue to explore forward, we should be able to find another continent in no time."
Ye Li and his group were in the front and could vaguely hear the words of the Grand Elder, and their hearts were suddenly shocked.
"Senior Tunri, did you hear the other world that old man just mentioned?"
Ye Li shouted towards Tunri.
Tunri naturally heard what the other party said, and the shock on his face was no less than Ye Li's.
“In the past, legends did mention another continent, but almost all of us thought it was just a legend.
After all, the Chaos Sea is simply impassable. If we can't get through it, how can we be sure that there is a continent on the other side
I never expected that they would discover the secret deep in the Chaos Sea. It is so shocking."
Tunri's eyes had already become somewhat wandering at this time, and no one knew what he was thinking about in his mind.
Ye Li said: "They just talked about the people sent by the other side, so it is obvious that the people fighting with them are also humans. Could it be that they are humans from another continent?"
Tunri nodded and said, "I think that's the case. It's incredible. Let's see what the humans over there are like!"
The conversation between the Grand Elder and the old man surnamed Bing did not end. The Grand Elder said, "Xiao Bing, after we beat back the enemy, they fled towards the front of our island, and our people are chasing them in that direction.
We discovered at the outset that they had no chains to guide them, and we had no idea how they had located themselves and found the archipelago.
Later, we found a strange prop on the body of a dead leader of the other side, which seemed to be able to guide the direction.
The prop looked like a crystal disc, which was hollow in the middle with two small needles floating in the middle.
The two small needles were crossed, one pointing to the archipelago, and the other pointing to somewhere deep in the chaotic sea. I thought maybe that place was the other side's continent.
The purpose of our pursuit is to verify this and see if we can find the legendary continent."
As the Grand Elder spoke, he took out a crystal disc and said to the old man surnamed Bing, "Take this disc and look carefully. This golden needle points to the opposite side, and the silver needle points to this island.
Now you can take the boat and follow the direction indicated by the golden needle to catch up and see if the people ahead need support. In any case, it is always good for you to go over there. If they need support, you can help them. "
The old man surnamed Bing took the crystal disc with a surprised look on his face. After fiddling with it for a while, he nodded heavily and said, "Okay, we'll catch up and take a look right away, just in case."
