In the outer sea far away from the continent, it was a place that would make people pale at the mention of it.
Since ancient times, there had been countless legends and warnings from the elders. Unless one had the ability of the Divine Dao, one was not allowed to set foot in the outer sea.
However, on this day, a Venerable One stepped into the Forbidden Land of Death, which caused people to tremble in fear upon hearing its name.
It was a Western powerhouse. He was tall, handsome, and had dense golden hair that was as dazzling as the sun.
He was Edwin, the God-favored one of the Western Shrine's new generation.
After he became a Venerable One, he encountered a super battle between the Western powerhouse, who was at the peak of the human path, and the Eastern powerhouse, He Yiming. In that battle, the Western powerhouses were completely defeated, and the only remaining 2 powerhouses at the peak of the human path were killed.
Before the Western Shrine's Pope, Franklyn, died, he ordered Edwin to go to the outer sea to find the legendary Island of God.
Edwin, who was determined, accepted the Pope's last wish without hesitation. With the shrine's help, he immediately prepared a fleet to set off to the outer sea.
Before entering the outer sea, they had an entire fleet. Nevertheless, when they arrived at the border between the outer sea and the inner sea, they were attacked by sea creatures for the first time.
The strength of those sea creatures was absolutely beyond people's imagination. Even Venerable Ones, who were respected and admired in the human world, could only barely protect themselves in front of those sea monsters.
In the end, he had no choice but to leave the damaged ship alone and enter the outer seas.
Before entering, he had only heard rumors about the dangers of the outer sea, but when he entered, he deeply felt the powerfulness of the outer sea creatures. The Venerable One's cultivation base did not seem to be particularly outstanding here. He had encountered several humongous sea creatures. Some of them fought to snatch territory, while some fought to devour each other. The enormous power that was drawn from them made Edwin sigh at his inferiority. He could only try his best to stay away from those terrifying creatures.
This was because he was not confident that he could win.
So far, the only thing that made him feel fortunate was that among the creatures that he had encountered, there were no top-notch holy beasts that were equivalent to the peak of the human path.
One had to know that a sacred beast of this level was a powerhouse that could be compared to a powerhouse like Franklyn.
He was a mighty Venerable One but if he was unlucky and encountered a sea creature of such a level, he would not be able to escape in the end.
At this moment, there were two thick wooden boards under his feet, and he was using the buoyancy of the wooden boards to walk on the sea.
Given his strength as a Venerable One, it would not be a problem for him to walk on the waves, but he knew that he would not be able to return in a short time. Since that was the case, it would be good to conserve some of his True Qi.
He stretched out his hand, and there was an emerald ring there. It was a rare spatial ring.
After the disappearance of the Divine Dao, the number of spatial items decreased with each use. To a certain extent, their value was not inferior to imitations of divine artifacts.
With Edwin's strength and status, he shouldn't have been able to wear spatial accessories. However, the journey this time was of great significance to the entire Divine Hall. Therefore, after a discussion, the Divine Hall Elders decided to give him a spatial item that they treasured.
With the flow of True Qi, the space opened, and Edwin took out a strange item from it. It was a strange hexagonal metal object that was divided into several different colors. When this thing was exposed to the outside world, it immediately emitted an extremely bright luster.
Edwin pointed at one of the fulcrum points with his fingertips and slowly erected it. A pure light power was injected into it.
It was difficult to find people with a pure light physique and a pure darkness physique even in the temple and the Dark Alliance. However, although Edwin did not have a pure light physique, he was the talent that leaned towards the light physique the most among all the younger disciples of the temple in this generation. Therefore, after he achieved great success in martial arts, he also mastered the light power.
Although this power could not be compared with the dead His Majesty Pope Franklyn, it was considered one of the few people in the entire temple with the purest power.
After the hexagonal object in his hand absorbed a large amount of light power, it began to spin. In just a moment, it had spun countless times.
A very powerful power was emitted from this object. This power seemed to be communicating with a power that Edwin could not understand through some means.
Edwin put all his energy into it. His eyes flashed with a strange light, as if he had seen something from it.
After a long while, it came to a sudden stop. Then, Edwin lifted his head, identified a certain direction, and sped towards it at a rapid speed.
However, after Edwin left, the surface of the sea where he originally stood suddenly moved.
Circles of ripples spread out from that point. A moment later, the seawater split open, and a huge strange fish slowly emerged from it.
This was a bream with a triangular head, sawtooth-like steel teeth in its mouth, and fine scales all over its body.
When it appeared, all the marine creatures were silent and tried their best to escape from the place. This situation would only emerge when the absolute overlord of this sea area appeared.
This strange fish was the king of this sea area. When Edwin appeared and took out the hexagonal object, it sensed it. However, because it sensed the power attribute released from the hexagonal object, it did not dare to attack this human on the sea surface.
Because from this power attribute, it sensed an aura that belonged to the overlord of the outer sea.
In the face of this aura, all the creatures in the outer sea, especially the top sacred beasts, did not dare to provoke or disobey.
Just like how no other creatures in the entire sea area dared to challenge its majesty under its rule, it did not dare to provoke the patience and tolerance of the overlord of the outer sea.
Long before it became an adult, its elders had warned countless times that the dignity of the overlord of the outer sea was not to be challenged, and all the creatures that disobeyed would suffer a fate worse than death.
It had been like this for tens of thousands of years …
Therefore, it looked at Edwin from afar until this weak human was far away from the sea area that it ruled. Then, it wagged its thick tail and returned to its nest.
Ai Dewen didn't know that when he took out the Divine Dao treasure in the outer sea, it was as if he had placed a protective talisman on his body, protecting him from danger and allowing him to move unimpeded.
No matter which sea area he went to, although he would encounter some powerful sea monsters, they inexplicably rarely took the initiative to attack or provoke him.
Even if some powerful spirit beasts in the sea attacked him sometimes, as long as he escaped for a period of time, they would disappear as if they had lost interest.
Edwin always thought that the spirit beasts living in the ocean lacked enough perseverance and patience. However, he didn't know that the sea monsters who were courageous or didn't sense the majesty of the hexagons didn't stop their pursuit. Instead, they were devoured alive by other more powerful sea creatures.
Not to mention Edwin, even the popes of the past and the chairman of the Dark Alliance did not know this.
A few months later, Edwin finally stopped because there was a fog in front of him.
The area covered by the fog was extremely large. By the time he discovered it, he was already at a place where he could not see the end of it at a glance.
After confirming the direction of the hexagonal object again, Edwin finally gritted his teeth and broke into the fog.
He knew that in such a harsh environment, he might encounter even more terrifying sea monsters. He might even encounter the legendary top Holy Beasts.
But at this moment, he was no longer willing to retreat.
Drifting alone in the boundless sea was definitely not a pleasing sight. After a few months, if it were not for his firm faith and tenacious will, perhaps he would have collapsed at this moment.
He was even looking forward to seeing if something strange would happen in this fog.
Of course, the main reason was that the hexagonal object was pointing to the center of the fog. If not, he might not be so bold.
Holding the divine weapon in his hand and stepping on the wooden planks that had seeped through water, Edwin bravely entered.
The fog seemed to be endless. After walking here for seven days, he still did not reach the end.
Edwin, who was already physically and mentally exhausted, struggled to move forward. If it were not for the hexagonal object pointing the way, he almost gave up in his heart.
There seemed to be some kind of mysterious power here that could weaken a person's fighting spirit and perseverance. It would erode and weaken a person's spirit unknowingly.
But in any case, Edwin still persevered because he always remembered the words of His Majesty the Pope before his death.
If he wanted to revitalize the Temple and let the Western World rise again, he must find the Island of God.
After an unknown period of time, perhaps a few days, or perhaps a few months, when Edwin staggered on the sea like a walking corpse, a golden light suddenly lit up in front of his eyes …
There, the fog dissipated and the light shone brightly.
A huge island abruptly appeared in this boundless fog, and also abruptly appeared in front of his eyes.
Edwin opened his mouth wide and his eyes were instantly filled with tears. He gathered all the strength in his body and crawled from the sea to the island as fast as he could.
He had never seen this island before, but for some reason, when he saw it for the first time, he knew in his heart that this was the Island of God, the Island of God that belonged to the legends of the Western World.
At the moment when his will was at its weakest and his body was at its weakest, he finally found it and arrived on the island.
When he set foot on the flat land, an intense and irresistible tiredness suddenly swept over him.
He wanted to stay awake, but he found that he could not do so at all.
His body tilted and his eyes closed. He had already fainted.
However, the moment before he completely lost consciousness, a message seemed to appear in his mind: "You did very well. Now rest, my child …"
