The Cursed Land was one of the six forbidden lands in Division 3. It was located in the east of the Peaceful Ocean and was an isolated island in the sea.
The island was called the Cursed Land. It was not because humans would be cursed when they arrived there. Instead, it was because all the monsters that entered the island by mistake would be cursed and would not be able to leave.
It was said that all the monsters that left the island would die within 24 hours. Their bodies would then turn into a spirit type and return to the island.
More than one Imperial Censor in Division 3 had experimented with his pet monsters. As long as the pet monsters were summoned on the island, they would die within 24 hours even if they were recalled back into the pet space and brought out. They would then turn into a spirit type. The contract between the pet monsters and the Imperial Censor that had turned into a spirit type would be invalid. To return to the island, they would attack all the creatures that stood in their way.
Apart from that, all the creatures that died on the island, including humans, would immediately turn into a spirit type and become the new prisoner of the island.
Lin Huang had heard about all sorts of stories about the forbidden land when he had just arrived in Division 3. He had also read about it in the documents. In the past, his attitude towards such places had always been to keep a respectful distance. He was not sure if the curse would work on Bloody and the rest, but he did not plan to try.
The reason why he chose such a place to hunt cross-ranking monsters was that Lin Huang suspected that there were soul-type god items or god relics hidden on the island.
In reality, Lin Huang was not the only one who had such an idea.
Back when the Cursed Lands were first discovered, some people had suggested this idea. More than a hundred years ago, the rumor that there were soul-type treasures in the Cursed Land had spread throughout the entire Division 3. Almost everyone in the transcendent-level circle knew about it.
During that era, the Cursed Land welcomed waves of explorers. The undead monsters that were originally spread all over the island were almost killed by the human explorers. Almost every inch of the island had been explored, but to no avail.
In the past hundred years, no one had found the so-called soul-type treasure. Gradually, the number of people who believed in this theory decreased, and the number of explorers who went to this island also decreased.
Lin Huang's plan was simple. He was looking for a place with a large number of immortal-level rank-9 monsters. There were only six forbidden lands in Safety Sector No. 3 that fit the criteria. One of the forbidden lands, the Cursed Land, happened to have a legend of spiritual treasures, so he decided to check it out.
He did not have much expectations for this trip. His main goal was to kill monsters and obtain the cross-tier reward. After that, he would just stroll around and leave.
Starting from Martel City, Lin Huang traveled for two days before he finally arrived at his destination, the Cursed Lands.
The island was not as desolate as Lin Huang imagined. He originally thought that there should be no living plants in a place where the undead were everywhere. However, the vegetation on this island was exuberant, and the trees were as green as a carpet. Due to the lack of human activity for a long period of time, this place was completely a primitive jungle.
Most of the immortal-level powerhouses had to be careful when exploring such a dangerous place. Lin Huang was no exception.
He did not go deep into the jungle immediately. Instead, he flew into the air slowly and retreated hundreds of meters away from the island. He then summoned Bloody.
As long as he did not enter the area covered by the island, the curse would not work. That was the reason why the fish that were hunting nearby could always leave safely.
Lin Huang only dared to summon Bloody after confirming that. However, for safety's sake, he only crushed Bloody's card after retreating 300 meters away.
"Is this the cursed island?" Bloody was curious about the island as well. "It looks more alive than I imagined."
"I think so too." Lin Huang smiled. "I won't bring you guys along this time. Help me find out where the immortal-level rank-9 monsters are and we'll head back."
Bloody nodded. It knew that Lin Huang was doing this for its own safety.
Under Bloody's control, the Leech Pods soon floated towards the huge island.
Approximately half an hour later, Bloody then nodded at Lin Huang. "I've found them. There are many immortal-level rank-9 monsters on this island."
"You must have done some other investigation. Did you find anything?" Lin Huang knew Bloody very well. It knew that there was a spiritual treasure hidden on the island, so it would definitely check it out.
"There's nothing special. There's a burial ground on the west side of the island. However, it seems like it has been excavated countless times. There are a few lakes on the other side. I think they have been explored by people. Let me mark them on the map. "
Lin Huang projected the map that he bought from the black market. Bloody marked them with different colors and marks. The immortal-level rank-9 monsters were marked with yellow dots while the imperial-level monsters were marked with red dots. The lakes were marked with blue water droplets while the burial ground was marked with a skull. There were also a few places that seemed to be unusual. Bloody marked them with yellow question marks.
After doing that, Bloody briefly told Lin Huang about the few places outside the burial ground. Lin Huang then recalled Bloody into its card form and headed towards the first yellow dot that was closest to him.
Before he started his exploration, he planned to get all the cross-ranking card rewards.
Soon, Lin Huang arrived at his first destination.
The first monster whose position was marked by Bloody was a flying spirit type bird.
It had two heads, but it was obvious that they did not grow after it became a spirit. Instead, it had them when it was alive. On both of its heads, its four eyeballs were white without irises. There were obvious wounds on its abdomen and wings. The wounds had stopped bleeding and were even rotten. However, it did not seem to notice that at all.
"I wonder how long this Double-Headed Dragon Vulture has been dead." Lin Huang could recognize what kind of monster the spirit bird was when it was alive.
After observing for a while, Lin Huang crushed the Double Reward Card in his hand. He then dashed towards the immortal-level rank-9 monster and attacked it.
If he were to level up to gold flame-level normally, he would not be confident that he could kill an immortal-level rank-9 monster. However, he was confident that he could kill most of the immortal-level rank-9 monsters now.
In less than two minutes, the Double-Headed Dragon Vulture howled in pain as its two heads were chopped off by Lin Huang. Before he managed to keep the carcass in his storage space, Xiao Hei's notification came into his ears.
"Congratulations, you've completed a cross-ranking kill. You've obtained 60 card draws!"
The Double Reward Card was only valid for an hour.
