The night passed by quickly, and it was already the next morning.
There were thousands of people gathered in the center plaza of the crystal island.
"The first mission is very easy. I will take it."
"Me too."
"It seems to be almost the same. It doesn't matter which one I take. "
Everyone found that although the tasks on the task cards were different, the difficulty was very low. They really couldn't understand why the Blackwater Alliance issued such a simple task. Couldn't they complete it themselves? Was the Blackwater Alliance trying to attract people?
Of course, it was just a thought. For them, the easier the mission, the better. After finishing it, they would be able to exchange for endless Zhen yuan crystals.
There were a couple of rows of powerful warriors standing next to the board. One of the leaders stood out and sneered, "Don't think that these missions are easy. Indeed, the missions themselves are easy, but don't you forget what kind of place this is."
After being reminded by the leader, everyone realized that there was a legend about the devouring island here. If one was devoured, there would be no way out. If they ran into the devouring island, then the mission would be even more dangerous.
"Damn! The devouring island is only a legend. If I ran into it, I can only blame my bad luck. If I were afraid, I would not have come in the first place."
"Yeah! Who is afraid of who?"
The warriors who came here were all powerful and brave. Not many of them would be afraid.
"Which mission should we take?" Ye Chen looked at the board and asked Murong Qingcheng.
Murong Qingcheng thought about it and said, "Let's take the second one. This mission is for us to find the ancient ruins on the map. "
"Alright, let's take this one then. The reward is not low either."
The missions on the board all had a reward, but of course, it was very low. The reward for the second mission was divided into three levels: one thousand top rank soul stones for Astral Reaching Realm warriors, twenty thousand for Seas of Souls Realm warriors, and one hundred thousand for half step king warriors. If it were in other places, it would be unbelievable. Normal master level warriors would have at least fifty thousand.
However, people were not here for the reward anyway. It would be great if there was one, but it would be fine if there was none. The fact that the alliance was willing to give out the reward would actually make people feel good about it.
However, the reward would only be given out after the mission was completed. If the mission was not completed, then the reward would be canceled.
"You guys are also taking the second mission? What a coincidence!"
Not far away, Dongfang Hao smiled when he overheard their conversation.
In fact, he had not decided which mission to choose. He was waiting for Ye Chen and Murong Qingcheng to decide. Otherwise, he would not have the chance to come into contact with them.
"What a coincidence."
Ye Chen smiled faintly.
"Do you want another one?"
Murong Qingcheng frowned.
"There's no need. If we change, they will change as well. It's superfluous. I want to see what kind of tricks they are playing." Ye Chen was not a person who was afraid of trouble. Since trouble came to him, running away was not the best solution.
"We really are fated. It's a pity that the mission is about to start. Otherwise, I would definitely invite you for a drink," Dongfang Hao said.
"Haha, Brother Hao rarely invites people to drink."
Meng Xiaoling interrupted.
At this time, the experts of the Blackwater Alliance near the task board separated and formed a line of three groups. The leader of the first group shouted, "Whoever takes the first task, come to me."
"Those who want to take the second mission, gather here with me."
"Do we need someone else to lead us?"
Dongfang Hao frowned. He had only arrived a couple of days earlier than Ye Chen.
There were ten missions in total, so there would be hundreds of people taking the same mission. There were about two hundred people in Ye Chen's group, and among them, there were more than a hundred Astral Reaching Realm warriors.
"Listen up, I am the leader of your group. You will have to listen to everything I say. If anyone does not listen and tries to mess things up, I will ask him to leave the group immediately. Within one year, he will be disqualified from taking any missions. We, the Blackwater Alliance, do not welcome him."
The leader of the second group was a man with grey hair. His cultivation was very high, and he was a half step king warrior. The two beside him were also top master level warriors. It was quite a powerful group. Perhaps only a huge alliance like the Blackwater Alliance would be able to send out this many half step king warriors and top master level warriors.
"Don't worry, I will do whatever you say. As long as you don't ask me to die, it will be fine."
Right next to Ye Chen, the evil looking man with a face full of stubble said with a loud voice. He was a half step king warrior, and in this group, only he and Dongfang Hao were half step king warriors.
"Alright, I believe you will not do anything stupid."
The man with grey hair nodded.
"Since that is the case, let's go. Time waits for no one."
The man with grey hair did not say anything more as he jumped into the air with the other two top master level warriors, flying into the distance.
"Let's go!"
Ye Chen and the rest followed.
…
Over five hundred thousand miles away from the crystal island, over two hundred people were standing in the sky. The gray-haired man said, "The ancient ruins should be right under this ocean. Everyone, don't fall behind. Dangers are everywhere in the deep ocean."
"As long as we do not run into the sea demon king, it will be fine."
The evil looking man licked his lips.
Dongfang Hao crossed his arms in front of his chest and said confidently, "Brother Ye, lady Murong, we will form a group later. I will make sure you guys are safe."
Murong Qingcheng said, "We will take care of ourselves."
"Hehe! It is better to be safe than sorry. "
On the way, Dongfang Hao had been trying to find a chance to talk to Ye Chen. Actually, he was using Ye Chen as a bridge to talk to Murong Qingcheng. Unfortunately, there had not been any results. Although Murong Qingcheng looked noble and dignified, Dongfang Hao had run into a lot of trouble with her.
Dongfang Hao could not wait for some huge danger to appear so that he could show off.
Ye Chen looked on coldly. If it were not for Dongfang Hao's sense of propriety, he would not mind showing him how high the sky was and how deep the earth was.
"Let's go."
The man with grey hair and the other two jumped into the ocean first.
Shoo! Shoo!
Shoo! The next second, two hundred people jumped in one after another. Soon, there was not a single person left on the surface of the ocean.
The reason why the deep ocean was called the deep ocean was not only because it was extremely dangerous, but also because there were all kinds of strange beasts lurking around. Most importantly, the depth of the deep ocean was much deeper than the shallow ocean. Here, it was normal for the water to reach one hundred thousand meters, or even two hundred thousand meters. Normal Astral Reaching Realm warriors would not even be able to reach that deep. Therefore, the Astral Reaching Realm warriors who came to the crystal island were at least at Late Astral Reaching Realm.
When they had reached a hundred thousand meters deep, a lot of light spots suddenly appeared from all directions, and they started to gather towards them.
The man with grey hair squeezed his eyes as his voice spread out with the help of his zhen yuan, "Everyone, be careful! It is a deep ocean electric eel."
The deep ocean electric eel had a powerful thunder power inside its body. Once it reached a certain size, it would be very scary. It was very common in the deep ocean.
"Attack!"
Without any orders, everyone started to attack instinctively. Beams of sword qi, blade qi, and fist shadows attacked towards the group of electric eels. Crack!
Crackle!
After being attacked, the electric eel became even more furious. The thunder power spread out from its body, turning the area within ten miles into a thunder zone.
After battling for a while, the electric eel still could not win against Ye Chen and the rest, and was killed.
Boom!
All of a sudden, a massive electric eel waved its tail and charged over at an extremely fast speed. The thunder power on its body was blue with a hint of black, evaporating all the water around it and turning it into a vacuum.
"Electric Eel King!"
Everyone was shocked.
This electric eel was the leader of the group, and it was obviously a half step sea beast king. Not only was it huge in size, its beast power was also extremely powerful. Normal half step king warriors would only be able to run if they ran into an electric eel king, since they would not be able to beat it at all.
Among the half step sea beast kings, the electric eel king could be counted as one of the tyrants. With its unique thunder power, no one would dare to underestimate it.
The appearance of the electric eel king made everyone cautious. The man with grey hair did not say anything right then as he crossed his arms in front of his chest, looking at the evil looking man and Dongfang Hao.
Besides the man with grey hair, these two were the only half step king warriors.
"Let me do it."
Dongfang Hao glanced at Murong Qingcheng before walking out of the group.
"Hehe!"
The evil looking man was happy that someone else had taken care of it for him, so he let out an ugly laugh.
Swoosh!
The electric eel king sensed the powerful qi coming from Dongfang Hao's body. Its eyes, which were very small compared to its body, shrunk with a vicious light.
"If it were the White Bone Shark King, I might be a bit worried. But it is only an electric eel king, and it dares to block our way."
Dongfang Hao waved his hand and a four to five feet long iron stick appeared in his hand. It was only a semi extreme rank weapon, but it looked extremely heavy, as if it was made of a mountain. Swoosh!
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Boom!
Pap!
The electric eel king was enraged by Dongfang Hao. A sky full of thunder power poured out of its body, attacking toward Dongfang Hao who was not far away. Facing this kind of scene, a lot of people's faces turned pale. They thought that under this endless thunder power, they would not even be able to last one breath.
"Die!"
Facing the sky full of thunder, Dongfang Hao's body flashed, flying toward the eel king's back. Along the way, the incoming thunder power was shattered by the iron stick in his hand before it could even get close to his body.
Dongfang Hao's speed was extremely fast, but it also seemed to be fake at the same time. The electric eel king could not lock on to him at all, so it could only roll its body to increase the range of the thunder attack.
Shoo!
In the boiling ocean water, a purple light flashed, and Dongfang Hao appeared out of nowhere.
"Earth Shattering Art!"
Holding the iron stick, Dongfang Hao smashed it onto the eel king's head.
Whoo!
The yellow light expanded, covering the Electric Eel King. The next moment, the Electric Eel King's body was torn to pieces. There was no blood coming out of the wounds. It was completely petrified. It was like a broken statue of the Electric Eel King.
"Interesting! Very powerful!"
The evil looking man was a bit surprised.
'Among this group of people, he should be the most powerful one.' The man with gray hair thought to himself.
Meng Xiaoling smiled at Ye Chen and Murong Qingcheng, "This kind of eel king … Brother Hao has killed a couple of them already. Even that extremely cruel White Bone Shark King might not be his opponent. With him here, we will be very safe. There is no need to worry about anything else."
"His power is indeed not bad."
Ye Chen nodded slightly.
Swoosh!
Meng Xiaoling almost laughed out loud. She was only at peak level Late Sea of Souls Realm, and she was judging her boyfriend's power as only not bad.
