The Palace of Heaven's Favorites has existed for an eternity and nobody knows of its history. Even the owner of the Palace is someone very few people have seen.
However, because the Palace of Heaven's Favorites activates once every 100 years, the mysterious place is widely known and many people know about it.
Inside this small world, there are many places with hidden treasures. They are places that all cultivators want to go to. There are also many holy places for cultivation with dense spiritual energy that makes one's hair stand on end. They are the most suitable places for isolation.
Other than these places, the most attractive places for cultivators are without a doubt, the three forbidden areas.
Though the Palace of Heaven's Favorites has warned people not to enter these three places, in reality, the Palace has never stopped anyone. It was as if they allowed it.
Even though these three places were filled with danger, everyone knew that they contained enormous opportunities.
Therefore, every time the Palace of Heaven's Favorites activates, countless cultivators head to the two forbidden areas.
Why are they called the two forbidden areas? Because nobody has ever acquired fortunes from the third forbidden area. Though that place is much less dangerous than the first and second forbidden areas and many people can easily get in.
But at the end of the road, they will encounter a woman in green who will throw them out. They won't even get a spiritual medicine of the ninth realm.
Ever since the Palace of Heaven's Favorites was opened, Ling Xian was the only person who has acquired fortunes from there. And they were all great fortunes!
Therefore, as time went on, everyone chose to forget about the third forbidden area and instead headed towards the extremely dangerous first and second forbidden areas.
The reason for that was because even though these two places were dangerous, if one was lucky or powerful enough, one would be able to obtain great fortune.
Legend has it that a long time ago, a cultivator acquired a real dragon bone from the second forbidden area and forged it into a heavenly sword!
Rumor has it that the first forbidden area is filled with heaven-defying fortunes. It's just that after all these years, nobody has ever acquired it. The accuracy of this rumor has yet to be verified.
However, two things are certain. One, the two forbidden areas are very dangerous. Two, there are many fortunes inside.
Knowing these two points is enough. The latter, in particular, makes everyone's heart race. Therefore, most cultivators who think they can escape unscathed will head to the two forbidden areas in search of fortunes.
Ling Xian was the same.
After he and Feng Jiu Ge left the Third Forbidden Area, they flew in the direction of the Second Forbidden Area. The reason why he knew the direction was not because he had asked around, but because he could see cultivators rushing towards the Second Forbidden Area at any time.
They even formed a torrent that flew toward the Second Forbidden Area.
Therefore, Ling Xian didn't even have to ask for directions. All he had to do was follow the group.
After flying for three days, he and Feng Jiu Ge finally arrived at the legendary Second Forbidden Area.
"Is this the legendary Sea of Death?"
Ling Xian raised an eyebrow and shifted his gaze to the ocean below.
This sea was not the usual blue color. Instead, it was pitch-black, as if it was an abyss of despair. It gave off an oppressive feeling.
The black seawater flowed, and the raging waves beat against the shore. The waves swept into the sky like a primordial beast that could devour everything, causing one to tremble with fear.
Even if the sun hung high in the sky and scattered down endless sunlight, it still couldn't disperse the strangeness and coldness of this place.
This was the second forbidden ground of the Palace of Heaven's Favorites, the Sea of Death.
It was said that a long time ago, this place used to be an ancient battlefield. Then, an omnipotent moved an ocean over and covered it up.
However, because far too many people have died here, the killer's intent was sky-high and never dissipated. After a long time, the seawater was dyed black and had the ability to corrode living beings.
"This is probably the origin of the word 'death'."
Staring at the black ocean, Ling Xian's expression froze. Then, he shifted his gaze towards the cultivators who came with him.
The moment these people saw the Sea of Death, their expressions changed. Only a small portion of them could maintain their composure.
Then, these confident cultivators jumped straight into the ocean in search of fortune.
At this, the remaining cultivators all made their moves as well, creating black waves on the surface of the ocean.
In the blink of an eye, all the cultivators who arrived at this place had entered. Only Ling Xian and Feng Jiu Ge remained suspended in midair.
Seeing this, Ling Xian softly smiled and prepared to enter as well.
However, just as he was about to enter, he saw dead bodies appear on the surface of the ocean. They were the people who entered before him!
This froze his expression. He didn't think the Sea of Death would be this terrifying.
One had to know that from the moment those people jumped into the sea until now, only a few breaths of time had passed. They were all Heaven's Favorites of the original level. Though their capabilities were weak, they were still decent Heaven's Favorites.
Yet after a few seconds, they were all killed by the sea. How terrifying was this?
Even Ling Xian was startled by this.
"What a terrifying Sea of Death. It is no wonder it is listed as the Second Prohibited Area." Feng Jiu Ge's expression was heavy and she shuddered.
If those cultivators were killed by tangible attacks, the two of them wouldn't react this way. But these people died without making a sound.
This was enough to make everyone feel strange.
"Killing without leaving a trace?"
Ling Xian frowned, "Legend has it that this place used to be an ancient battlefield. They were probably killed by the killer's intent that lingered for tens of thousands of years."
"That is a possibility. I also heard that the sea here has the ability to corrode." Feng Jiu Ge nodded.
"No matter what, since I am here, I have to go in and check it out."
Ling Xian softly grinned. His eyes flickered with curiosity, "I sure want to see just how terrifying the legendary Sea of Death is."
Then, in a flash, he dived into the ocean.
Seeing this, Feng Jiu Ge also moved her body and entered.
When the two of them entered the ocean, they immediately felt two different forces. One was resistance, the other was pressure.
The former was stopping them from sinking, the latter was like a mountain pressing down on them. It was extremely terrifying.
However, to Ling Xian and Feng Jiu Ge, these two forces could be ignored.
With their capabilities today, even if these two forces were 10 times stronger, they wouldn't pose a threat to them.
Therefore, Ling Xian and Feng Jiu Ge slowly sank. In the blink of an eye, they had sunk for hundreds of meters.
At this point, another two forces appeared. One was the power of corrosion, the other was killer's intent.
"It is no wonder those people died. Even if the first two forces cannot pose a threat, these two forces are enough to kill normal Heaven's Favorites."
Ling Xian exclaimed and understood why those people died. Then, the corner of his lips curled up, "But, I am no normal Heaven's Favorite."
At those words, Qi at the peak of the original level poured out of him, creating giant waves that blocked out the two terrifying forces.
"Jiu Ge, let us go."
Grinning, Ling Xian marched forward in giant steps. Like a God, everything in the world retreated!
HOMMM!
The sea churned and waves rolled. However, not a single drop landed on Ling Xian.
Every step he took, the sea water automatically split apart. It was as if the entire Sea of Death was being cut in half. This strange scene was truly unbelievable. It proved just how powerful he was today!
After walking for a while, he suddenly saw a dilapidated ancient ship floating in front of him.
