An hour passed by quickly. The sun began to fade, and the moon slowly showed up in the sky, emitting gorgeous blue moonlight.
At this moment, the surrounding thick fog began to move backward, revealing a faint silhouette of an island in the distance. At the same time, countless ships nearby started to sail toward the island, competing to be the first one to land.
Yun Lintian was in no hurry. He was looking at the curtain of moonlight that shone down upon the fog with a thoughtful expression. Although he couldn't confirm it yet, he was sure this was a work of an ancient formation he thought of. It was called the Moon Sealing Formation.
Situ Chaofeng frowned slightly upon seeing this. He wanted to find the Burning Heart Flower as soon as possible, but the decision was not in his hand. He could only wait for Yun Lintian's command.
Yun Lintian retracted his gaze and said to Nantian Lingyan. "Let's go."
Nantian Lingyan immediately sent a signal to a captain, and the ship began to move toward the island.
As the ship drew closer, a lush island gradually appeared in Yun Lintian's line of sight. Instead of a golden color, the beach was emitting a blue shade, reflecting the moonlight. A row of ancient tropical trees could be seen further behind the beach. As the moonlight fell down, the forest seemed to become alive and constantly swayed from side to side, greedily absorbing the light.
"It's so beautiful," Linlin exclaimed, her golden eyes staring at the island.
"Yeah." Yun Lintian responded in agreement.
A while later, the ship found a vacant space to anchor down. Yun Lintian turned to look at everyone and said. "I won't restrict your movement here. You can go wherever you want. However, all of you have to remember in your mind that our mission is to find a clue about your missing fellow sisters and brothers. Please contact each other as soon as possible when you find a clue. Also, do not try to venture alone. It's more dangerous than you think."
Situ Chaofeng cupped his fists and said. "We understood, Senior Brother Yun. I'll bring my people away now."
Yun Lintian said faintly. "Good luck."
Situ Chaofeng nodded and quickly flew away toward the island with his fellow brothers.
"What about all of you?" Yun Lintian turned to look at the others.
Xue Qianqian was the first to speak. "We will naturally follow Senior Brother Yun." Without a doubt, following Yun Lintian was the best choice here.
"We, too, will follow you, Senior Brother Yun." Tong Mi'er replied.
Meanwhile, Wen Yunshan thought for a moment and said. "I think spreading out is better. We will go in an opposite direction."
As for Nantian Lingyan and the other four Divine Phoenix Palace disciples, they were, of course, staying with Yun Lintian.
Yun Lintian nodded gently and said to Wen Yunshan. "See you later."
"I'll leave first." Wen Yunshan smiled and turned to his brothers. "Let's go."
Following that, he and the other nine disciples immediately flew onto the island and headed in the west direction.
"We should leave, too." Yun Lintian said calmly and flew away, followed by the rest.
Yun Lintian didn't choose to go too far. He simply landed on the beach and observed the vicinity first before choosing a direction.
However, the moment his feet touched the sand, he immediately felt a strong suppression bore down on him. It was so powerful that he couldn't put up any resistance. In the next moment, he perceived a large portion of his strength had been sealed within his body. Undoubtedly, he couldn't exercise his full power here.
"Big Brother Yun?" Linlin tilted her head to look at Yun Lintian curiously. She seemed to perceive the change in his body, but she couldn't pinpoint it.
"I'm fine." Although he couldn't use his full strength, Yun Lintian believed no one could be his opponent here.
He turned to look at Nantian Lingyan and the others. "How's everyone?"
"My strength has been suppressing." Tong Mi'er said.
"Me too." Xue Qianqian frowned slightly.
Meanwhile, Nantian Lingyan and the others were totally fine.
"So it's really random?" Yun Lintian touched his chin while looking at Tong Mi'er and Xue Qianqian. Except for their realms, Yun Lintian didn't see any similar point in them, which meant this suppression had no principle.
"You, too, Senior Brother Yun?" Xue Qianqian asked curiously.
Yun Lintian admitted honestly. "Yes. This is quite tricky. We have no idea why there is such a restriction here. What's its purpose?"
Everyone fell into silence. Even though some of them had been here a few times in the past, they simply couldn't figure out the reason behind this.
Thinking for a while, Yun Lintian shook his head and said. "Forget it. We better move now." He glanced in the island's center direction. "We will go straight to the center area. Do you have an opinion about it?"
Xue Qianqian and the others shook their head, indicating Yun Lintian could make a decision, and they would follow.
"Let's go then." Yun Lintian didn't waste time further. He quickly rushed into the forest with everyone.
The first scene that came into his vision was a fairyland-like scenery with countless exotic flowers and plants everywhere. With his knowledge, Yun Lintian immediately recognized several high-rank magical plants. These plants had various uses and could be sold at a high price.
For example, a rainbow-colored lotus in a small pond on Yun Lintian's left side. This lotus was called Rainbow Cloud Lotus. It was a scarce magical herb used to aid one's soul. The price in the market was at least a million high-grade Profound Stones.
Yun Lintian paused his track and glanced at several figures far away. These people were clad in the same attires, showing they were in the same group. Their gazes were fixated on the Rainbow Cloud Lotus in the pond while they kept glancing at Yun Lintian's group from time to time.
Naturally, Yun Lintian didn't care about this lotus. With the Celestial Buddha Lotus in his hand, this Rainbow Cloud Lotus was utterly useless to him.
Yun Lintian turned to look at Xue Qianqian and Tong Mi'er. "Do you want it?"
Xue Qianqian hesitated slightly and shook her head. "No. We shouldn't waste our time picking them."
"Sister Xue is right. We don't need it." Tong Mi'er echoed.
Yun Lintian nodded. "Very well. Let's go."
Watching Yun Lintian leave, the people in the distance heaved a sigh of relief, and one of them didn't hesitate to fly toward the lotus.
However, the moment his hand was about to land on the lotus, a strong fluctuation suddenly occurred behind him. A small crack of space appeared, and a streak of black light shot through the gap, shooting straight at the man.
"Watch out!" The others shouted in unison upon seeing this scene, but it was already late. The black light had already penetrated the man's heart, reaping his life away and disappearing along with the space crack…
