Eternal life begins with saving my clan

Chapter 140 : Land of Fallen

As the tranquil sea horizon met the sky, a formidable sight emerged.

Hundreds of battleships, each adorned with the symbols and banners of the most prominent clans from Baiyun City on the mainland, sailed towards the barren land.

The ships cut through the calm waters, leaving ripples in their wake as they moved in a synchronized formation, a silent but powerful armada.

The sunlight reflected off the metallic surfaces of the battleships, creating a dazzling display that caught the eye of anyone witnessing this spectacle.

The banners fluttered in the sea breeze, showcasing the unique insignias of the various clans.

Even though the sea was eerily calm, that couldn't be said on the ships. Everyone had a solemn gaze, looking into the distance as they couldn't wait to arrive in the barren land.

On the Liu clan main ship, the Liu Patriarch stood on the bow of the ship with an indiscernible expression on his face. The death of his beloved left a deep void in his heart, and only the blood of the barren land could fill that void.

Their previous delay had irked him to no end, and he didn't have anywhere to vent his anger. But now, it seems luck was on their side; in the next couple of hours, they would arrive in that damn forsaken land.

"Patriarch! Look…" His butler called him, pointing his finger to the sudden abnormality happening on the sea.

Patriarch Liu Jing turned his gaze and looked at where his butler was pointing at.

In the distance, amid the calm southern sea, an otherworldly event unfolded. Out of the void, a mirage emerged—a massive landmass materializing as if summoned by ancient forces.

The contours of this newfound island blended seamlessly with the tranquil surface of the southern sea, creating a mesmerizing spectacle of two worlds converging.

The mirage took shape gradually, its edges wavering like a dream materializing into reality.

The island seemed to possess an ethereal glow, catching the sunlight in a way that made it appear both mystical and mysterious.

Waves gently lapped against the shores of this phantom land, as if the southern sea itself were welcoming the arrival of an ancient secret.

For a couple of seconds, the various ships came to an abrupt stop as they fixed their gaze on the mysterious phenomenon happening a couple of hundred meters to their west.

Even though they were still at a considerable distance from the mysterious island, they could feel the ancientness of the mirage island.

"I-I think I know what this is…" The Chen patriarch said with a trembling voice.

"This is the Land of Fallen."

The Land of Fallen had been a mystery to the people of the Lotus world. In the long river of time, the Lotus world was prosperous, filled with immortals and gods.

Everything changed when a sudden battle erupted, throwing the Lotus world into chaos. According to history, the heavens cried, and the earth bled under the horrifying battle.

A portion of the world was cut off, shattered into smaller islands that drifted through the void. Once in a millennium, one of the broken lands would merge with the Lotus for a couple of hours before disappearing into the void once again.

Those that were lucky enough to enter the Land of Fallen had their strength skyrocket, leading the generation of their time.

Now, such a golden opportunity lay before their eyes. For a couple of seconds, each clan patriarch had their hearts race, their hearts pounding heavily against their chests.

Their gazes filled with greed as they couldn't wait to rush into the Land of Fallen. Instantly, the clan masters commanded their ships to change direction and sailed toward the Land of Fallen at a breathtaking speed.

The top three main clans of the Baiyun lead the race, their eyes burning with anticipation and excitement.

Meanwhile, the barren land patrol ship saw the sudden phenomenon and quickly reported to the elder in charge.

Listening to the news, Elder Feng didn't dilly-dally and took a ship to check things out. The ship sailed at its top speed toward the west.

As Elder Feng was rushing to check everything out, he received another call from the patrol ship.

"What do you mean there are hundreds of military ships rushing toward the location?" he shouted.

When he finally received the full details, he realized the situation had just gotten more dire. Without thinking twice, he released the alarm through the Spirit Comms military channels.

Also, he left a message for their sect master while rushing toward the mysterious land.

With the alarm out, a blaring sound echoed throughout Jade City. The seaport was instantly shut down, and all civilians rushed into the city.

Inside the Huang clan mansion, Huang Yin received the alarm signal - Outlanders. Level-3 Threat.

"It is high time they visit us." She mused with a slight frown on her face. She wasn't that worried about the Outlanders, but the trouble of dealing with them gives her a headache already.

Since the threat came from her region, she needed to deal with it immediately. She stood and called the elders for battle.

As she was preparing for battle, the seaport was filled with soldiers rushing into battleships and sailing toward the west.

Su Yen saw the alert but didn't take any action. Since he had long expected the arrival of the Outlanders, he didn't change his expression and waited for Huang Yin to handle.

Unless she couldn't handle it, that was when he would move.

Meanwhile, the Outlanders had arrived near the Land of Fallen, but the pressure coming made no one dare to move forward.

As they were waiting for the pressure to disappear, they saw an unknown small boat in the distance. Looking at the small boat, they only looked at it for a moment before they averted their gaze.

To them, the Land of Fallen was more important than some nobody.

On the small boat, the captain of the team looked at the Land of Fallen with wide eyes. He had never seen such a mysterious scene in his life. He even thought he was hallucinating, but when he asked his men, they confirmed he was not.

"Captain, I think we should take pictures and send them to the commander." One of the patrol guards advised.

"Yes. Yes. How could I forget." The captain slapped his forehead and quickly took out the Spirit Image Crystal and took both images and a video of the Land of Fallen.

When Elder Feng received both the images and video, his heart skipped a beat. Treasure Island! He screamed in his heart.

At once, he forwarded it to Su Yen.
