The Lie Yan Archipelago was dotted with islands of different sizes.
According to legend, this group of islands was originally a vast island that had been formed after the collapse of a single island.
That island had originally been called Grand Evolution Island. It was said that it was so vast that it resembled a continent.
In the previous era, after the human race had mastered the art of breathing spirit energy and learned the art of cultivation, they had risen from the lowly state of being enslaved by the demon race and stepped onto the path of "contending for the heavens."
The human race's cultivators had fought a world-shaking war against the original rulers of the Haoran Continent, the dragon race, and some of the greater demons.
The war had been incomparably tragic. Many greater demons, giant dragons, and the founders of the human race's sects had perished.
Grand Evolution Island was one of the most famous ancient battlefields.
After that war, the enormous Grand Evolution Island had shattered into pieces.
Then, it had become the current Lie Yan Archipelago.
The Lie Yan Archipelago had originally been a giant island that had shattered due to the war between the human race and the demon race. Therefore, every island had been together at the beginning.
If a powerful cultivator was willing to use their magic power, they could use a large island to "swallow" a small island in the Lie Yan Archipelago.
There were also new battles that would cause a large island to shatter into even more small islands.
Ever since the Lie Yan Archipelago had been formed, the sects, factions, and wandering cultivators of the Tranquil Continent and the Tianyuan Continent had revolved around this area and fought both openly and secretly all year round.
In the past, the Grand Evolution Island had been rich in spirit energy.
Therefore, after it had shattered into the Lie Yan Archipelago, the spirit energy between the different islands was different.
Some islands were rich in spirit energy that was suitable for cultivators to breathe in, grow spirit herbs, and rear spirit beasts.
Some islands were barren, dry, and barren.
The major sects and rogue cultivators usually seized the islands that were rich in spiritual Qi. They had abandoned the islands that weren't suitable for the establishment of a sect's branch.
The Lie Yan Archipelago bordered the southern part of the Tranquil Continent and was relatively close to the Tianyuan Continent.
The largest branch of the Tongtian Trading Company was set up in the Lie Yan Archipelago. Almost all of the cultivation spirit materials and herbs collected from the three continents and the various seas were sold there.
The largest island in this group of islands was Heaven Span Island.
This island, which was firmly controlled by the Chamber of Commerce, was the Tongtian Trading Company's most important stronghold other than its headquarters.
Beside Clear Sky Island were Medicine God Island and Weapon Island.
The two smaller islands belonged to the Medicine God Sect and the Tool Sect. Together with Heaven Span Island, they were responsible for the glory and uniqueness of the Split Yan Archipelago.
Other than that, the Tianyuan Continent's three superior sects and seven inferior sects, the Tranquil Continent's Devil's Palace and Goblin Temple, the Red Devil School, the Heavenly Evil Sect, and the Juling School all had their own islands on the Split Yan Islands.
Moreover, almost all of them were directly named after the sect. It was clear at a glance.
The Rift Yan Archipelago was special in that it was a holy land for Haoran cultivators to openly trade with each other.
Spirit stones, medicinal plants, medicinal pills, spiritual tools, spell formations, spiritual incantations, and all kinds of cultivation materials could be traded on the Split Yan Islands.
However, the Lie Yan Archipelago was never a safe place. There was always fighting and fighting.
There was no sect or force that could maintain the order and rules of the Rift Yan Archipelago and make all the cultivators behave themselves.
Even the Tongtian Trading Company only said that cultivators who entered Clear Sky Island were not allowed to fight on the island.
As long as they left Clear Sky Island, they wouldn't care how the cultivators fought, fought, or robbed.
The sky began to brighten.
A five-story "cruise ship" was sailing toward the Leiyan Islands from the eastern sea.
Standing by the window and enjoying the moist sea breeze, Yu Yuan looked outside and said, "We're almost there."
Together with him, Yuan Lianyao also looked out curiously. "The destination of this cruise ship is Heavenspan Island. There's a teleportation portal on the island that leads directly to the Wasteland. Originally, Lord Fang Yao's agreement with the Skyspan Trading Company was to escort me off the ship at Skyspan Island. I was allowed to move about freely on the island before returning to the Forsaken Lands. "
After a short pause, she added, "Lord Fang Yao said that I shouldn't get off the ship or walk around on Clear Sky Island."
She had heard a thing or two about the Lie Yan Islands when she had taken Fang Yao to the "sea cruise".
She knew very well that the situation on the Rift Amplification Islands had been extremely chaotic since ancient times. Not to mention the Crimson Devil Sect, even the Devil Palace and Demon Hall didn't dare say that they could protect their disciples on the Rift Amplification Islands.
Of course, if she stayed on Crimson Devil Island, she would be safe.
However, the safest and most secure place was Clear Sky Island.
As long as she could get off the ship on Clear Sky Island, she would be able to move around freely on the island and then teleport to the Wasteland with the help of the Chamber of Commerce.
Clear Sky Island was the most important branch of the Chamber of Commerce. It had all kinds of spiritual materials, medicinal pills, and spiritual tools that could satisfy most of her needs.
"What do you think?" She asked Yu Yuan. "Should I go to Clear Sky Island with you and then return to the Wasteland?"
"Why don't you go to Clear Sky Island with this cruise ship and wait for me there?" Rubbing his chin, Yu Yuan pondered for a moment before saying, "I need to find something and do something in the Split Yan Islands. Once I'm done, I'll go find you on Clear Sky Island and then return to the Wasteland with you. "
Yuan Lianyao suddenly fell silent.
Looking at the sea, Yu Yuan waited for a while. Seeing that she didn't say anything, he couldn't help but look over his shoulder and ask, "Why are you so quiet?"
"Are you trying to drive me away?" Looking displeased, Yuan Lianyao walked towards the table and sat down angrily. "What are you looking for that you can't take me with you? My cultivation base and strength are both higher than yours. You don't think I'll be a burden to you, do you? "
Yu Yuan suddenly realized why she was angry.
"The Split Yan Islands are a dangerous place. Many people know that I have the Giant Beast Essence Amber." With a bitter smile, Yu Yuan said, "The mask that the manager of that chamber of commerce gave me can help me hide my identity. But if I go with you, you'll be too eye-catching, and I'll be easily targeted. "
In fact, he didn't want Yuan Lianyao to know about the island he planned to go to and the place he wanted to open with the key.
That place was a backup plan he had prepared for this life in his previous life.
There were some things he wanted to do there that only he knew.
"If you think I'm too eye-catching, I can learn from you and hide my appearance." Yuan Lianyao snorted. "I don't have such a mask like the one in the Tongtian Trading Company, but I do have two, which I used when I traveled in the early years."
As she spoke, two masks appeared out of thin air in her flawless palms.
"Hahaha! We're here! We're here! "
While Yu Yuan felt a headache coming on, he heard cheers coming from outside the window. Then, he saw some rogue cultivators waving their large sleeves and flying out of the window towards the neighboring island.
Plop!
Those with low cultivation bases jumped directly into the sea from the deck.
The Tongtian Trading Company's cruise ship would only stop for themselves. Earlier, they had stopped on Flying Dawn Island to collect spiritual materials from the island, so they had stopped there for more than half a day.
On the Split Yan Islands, the cruise ship wouldn't stop until it reached Heaven Span Island.
Those with high cultivation bases would fly away, while those with low cultivation bases would swim in the sea. The trading company wouldn't pay any attention to them.
"This is difficult..."
Leaning against the window, Yu Yuan looked out and at Yuan Lianyao from time to time. After a moment of hesitation, he said, "You can come with me, but you'll have to listen to me."
Yuan Lianyao's beautiful eyes lit up as she complained, "Since the Falling Moon Forbidden Land, the Desolate Abandoned Land, and even Dark Moon City, when have I not listened to you? You've always been the one calling the shots. I've never disobeyed you, have I? "
Yu Yuan smiled. After a moment of pondering, he realized that this sister of his was indeed very docile and obedient when it came to important matters.
Thus, he nodded reluctantly and said, "Alright, you'll have to wear a mask later. Ahem, you'll have to cover your figure as much as you can. You'd better wear loose clothes. "
This fiery lotus had an exceptionally hot figure. It would be too conspicuous for her to wear such a tight dress.
"I'll listen to you! As long as you don't leave me behind, I'll do whatever you want! " Yuan Lianyao's mood instantly improved. She asked with a pleased tone, "What are you going to do on the Split Yan Islands? I heard that this island is extremely chaotic, and fights are everywhere! "
Before she could finish, a cultivator outside let out his last bloodcurdling scream. "Ahhh!"
Eyebrows furrowed, Yu Yuan said, "As long as you leave this cruise ship, no matter if you fly or enter the sea, you'll be killed if your cultivation base doesn't match what you're carrying. The cruise ship itself is a conspicuous target."
