Wait until the storm at sea dissipates.

When the vortex of magical power dissipates.

Juanlu advanced to the eighth stage and landed on the deck.

Now, everyone on the boat, except Simon, has advanced to the eighth stage.

It was a little faster than Alka had expected.

Because they are about to enter the Broken Sea.

They had been sailing at sea for almost a year.

Everyone also entered the eighth stage one after another.

"Simon, how long will it take you?"

Alka looked at Simon next to him and couldn't help asking.

With the emergence of the decomposition block, Simon once again shifted most of his energy to the research and construction of machinery.

This made his speed slightly slower than everyone else.

But it's not far off.

"It will probably take more than two months."

Hearing this, Alka nodded.

That means it can probably be before Trial Tower No. 12.

Jason stood nearby and said, "Now I finally understand why crown-level treasures are so rare. Until now, we have not seen any crown-level treasures in detail."

Hearing this.

Everyone couldn't help but nodded.

That's true.

In theory, the sixth stage is enough to master the crown-level treasures. The eighth stage is enough to fully master the crown-level treasures and start the ascension ceremony.

However, until now, they do not have even a crown-level treasure.

What Alka knows now.

There is information about red light crown level treasures.

There are only a few in total.

Able to determine what is easily available.

The earliest one was the Zehai that separated the flower fairy land.

Zehai is the area where life and death meet, and it is also the area where a giant dragon with certain power in the realm of death and undead once died.

It is certain that there is a crown-level treasure there.

Judging from the environment, it is likely related to the power of the dead.

Then there are the world scars.

In the area of World Scar, Alka knew two things that were certain.

One is the lighthouse.

One is the world treasure house that Alka has obtained in his dream, and through him he saw the phantom of history. This is a treasure that has no use for the time being except for its commemorative value.

Thinking of this, Alka could not help but have a silver snake appear in his hand again. He caught it in his hand and it flew up and down.

When Alka was promoted to a god in his dream and mastered the secrets, he used the silver snake representing the element of luck for divination.

This trip will definitely bring him a crown-level treasure that suits him.

But now the journey is almost coming to an end.

But the result of the divination remained unchanged.

Continue sailing forward?

It didn't take much time.

They soon entered the Broken Sea.

This damn place really makes people feel familiar.

Alka stood on the deck.

Looking at the vast sea in front of me.

Staring at the sky, he suddenly smiled.

"Voice of Dawn, do you still remember this place?"

"Hmm?"

The sound of music came from the hull, but the music was full of doubts.

Apparently Voice of the Dawn didn't remember this place either.

Lucilia on the deck heard this and turned to look at him.

Julia, who was practicing music on the other side, also looked over, wondering what Alka was talking about.

"This... is where we first arrived, remember? It was from here that we fell into the boundless ocean from our forward route."

"Are you sure?" Lucilia jumped onto Alka's shoulder and looked around.

To be honest, with the vast sea and unchanging sky, it is difficult to tell whether there is even the slightest difference between here and other places.

"Of course I am sure." Alka pointed to his eyes and said.

His eyes have already seen the traces he once left here.

The desire for a new world of one's own still lingers in the air around him.

Although this sounds a bit mysterious.

But after all, it is a peek into one's own secrets.

If Alka wants to.

He could even reverse this space into a mirror, and then rewind time to watch them when they first fell.

Think of this.

A huge mirror appeared around them, as if it was actually reflecting the area, and then the mirror shrank and condensed into a circular lens.

The inside of the mirror reflected the phantom of the real world, which was then installed by Alka and placed into the treasure house of his own dream.

I am back to the place where I started, so of course I have to record it well.

At this time, something happened on the sea.

The waves seemed to have created a tsunami, but they were completely different. They turned over with the sound of dawn and then drove on the ocean in the sky.

Because of the chaotic space in the Broken Sea, and the unique ocean conditions.

The once familiar feeling came over me.

"Now I believe that the place we just passed might really be the place we first arrived at." Lucillia said while standing on Alka's shoulder.

Soon the ship sailed forward.

Saw an island.

Looking at the island in the distance.

"The Broken Isles...ah, so nostalgic."

Alka couldn't help but say.

Other people on the ship also came to the deck one after another.

The island ahead.

It really is like returning to the past.

The ship passed by within a few hundred meters of the island shore.

Looking at the island, Alka thought for a while, and suddenly threw a ball of light towards the island.

The ball of light dispersed and then disappeared.

"What did you lose?" Jason asked.

"Take control of the ruins on the island and completely destroy and close down the harmful ruins."

After all, this area is a sharp corner of the island in his small world, and it was formed by being separated.

From the information provided by the Vastva people, Alka and his companions had long known about the relics left on the island, namely the experiments represented by the ruins of the temple.

Alka naturally knew which ones were harmful.

So since you're here now, it wouldn't hurt to lend a hand.

"Next is Southern Cross Island. Counting it up, this should be our third time here, right?"

Xia Daiti thought of something and said.

Alka nodded.

Counting it up, this is indeed my third time to visit Southern Cross Island.

The first time they were forced to leave was because of the general.

He returned for the second time for revenge and the first scepter-level treasure.

And now, the third time, it went around the world a little bit and came back again.

It took about half a month to a month.

Under the full speed of the Sound of Dawn.

The location of the Southern Cross Island is about to appear in their sight.

“Something’s wrong…”

Alka sat on the deck, frowning.

He had an inexplicable premonition that something bad was happening.

This made him a little upset.

I want to take a peek with my eyes that can see secrets, and find out what the reason is.

In addition to this inexplicable premonition, he also discovered something was wrong.

“Although Southern Cross Island is a bit remote, it is a landmark island after all, right?”

"Yes." Hearing Alka's words, Xia Daiti next to him nodded.

"Why? Don't you feel strange? Why are there no ships coming and going? We are almost approaching the Southern Cross Island.

In a little while, we might be able to see the outline of an island in the distance.

But, there are no merchant ships coming and going? This is too abnormal."

“Now that you mention it…” Jason stood up and was about to say something, but then he stood there staring into the distance.

Everyone looked over immediately.

horizon.

The outline of the Southern Cross Island appeared before them.

However, the first thing they should see should be the lighthouse with a flashing red cross star.

But now.

All I saw was a round tumor there.

They are very familiar with this thing.

There was no doubt that the thing made of flesh and blood was exactly the flesh and blood nest from the newborn god that they had encountered before and finally cleared out.

See this scene.

Everyone's expressions not only became serious, but also became extremely ugly.

Maybe I sensed their emotions.

The Sound of Dawn increased its speed and sailed quickly towards the island.

Soon they arrived at the flesh and blood island that almost completely encompassed the Southern Cross Island.

Looking at the flesh nest on the island.

However, what caught their attention more was that, facing them, there was a living ship made of flesh and blood.

The boat slowly moved towards them.

Standing on the deck of this ship were the faceless flesh monsters transformed from cultists that Alka had faced in the Flesh Nest.

"Arka, the enemy of my god. Here is my oracle..."

The faceless blood monster in front of him, who seemed to be the leader, was speaking, but before he could finish his words, his body began to split apart.

Some scarlet runes and magic circles appeared on his body.

Looking at the runes and magic circles, Alka frowned.

Because it's very familiar.

Still old friends.

Under the rendering of runes and magic circles, the body of this faceless flesh and blood monster cracked, and then a demon crawled out of his body.

The flesh and blood of the surrounding faceless monsters were completely integrated into the body of this demon.

Looking at the expressions of these cultists, it seems that they themselves are not aware of the situation.

The demon touched his horns, spread his wings, and stretched his muscles.

"Ah~ Alka, we meet again."

As he spoke, he bowed gracefully, and then gestured to the nest of flesh and blood behind him that covered the entire island.

"How is it? Do you like this final gift? I prepared it specially to celebrate the end of your voyage."

Arka's eyes had completely turned into golden crystal pupils without her knowing.

He looked at the devouring mouth in front of him, at the nest of flesh and blood behind him.

"So? Why did you cooperate with those traitorous gods you hate the most?"

Alka asked.

Obviously, the Devouring Mouth was very patient at this time.

"This cannot be called cooperation, but mutual benefit."

"I want to kill you, but you know you are a genius and possess the soul I desire most. The glittering light of the value of your soul makes my greed almost come out."

"But like I said, I can't do anything to you. You are beyond my understanding of this world. Your strength increases very quickly, and the choices you make are very precise and your timing is very clever.

I haven't had any good opportunities since I met you.

Every time I set a trap for you, you would use a force beyond my expectations and crush the rest of my trap into slag.

And your dream power makes your companions unable to dream? I can't find a chance to invade your team.

To be honest, this is frustrating, and I hate this feeling. It reminds me of the time when I succeeded in blowing up your world, but got nothing, or even worse.

This is a bad feeling, and I really don’t like it.”

As he said this, he turned to look at Alka, his eyes showing wildness, anger and the desire to kill, without any concealment.

Only at this time could Alka feel that the devouring mouth in front of him was not a devil from hell, but a demon from the abyss.

That chaotic desire for killing was so blatant.

"suck……"

The swallowing mouth took a deep breath, calmed its emotions, and exhaled a breath of sparking air.

"After your visit, I know what you are going to do, but I can hardly find any opportunity.

At this moment, those damn gods who betrayed the world and were insidious enough came back.

That stubborn guy among them was actually looking for you. I learned a little about the situation and we hit it off immediately."

Having said that, the Devouring Mouth smiled.

"So you picked a place for him where I would definitely go and asked him to wait there, right?

By the way, I also turned everyone on this signpost island into a bargaining chip that I would not escape from, plus the tower that I must collect.

Use these chips together to ensure that I will not escape and will definitely fight him."

"Oh, you are very smart. You see through it so quickly?" The Devouring Mouth said with a surprised smile.

Alka looks at him.

"Why are you so sure that I can't kill him? I could kill him the first time, and I can kill him the second time, too."

"I like your confidence, but so what? This is the best opportunity and solution I can think of.

There are always certain risks in setting traps and schemes, but as long as the results and risks are bearable, then it doesn’t matter, right?”

"Hmph." Alka snorted and laughed.

"Stop talking bullshit here and take me there."

"When I win, you wait for me in the World Scar. Even if I have to rush into hell, I will chop off your head and extract your soul."

The Devouring Mouth smiled as it controlled the flesh-and-blood sailboat to sail ahead, taking Alka and the others towards the Trial Island where they had been before.

Standing on the deck, he looked at Alka and smiled, "If possible, I'll wait and see."

And on the boat.

Everyone looked at Alka with serious expressions.

"Don't look at me like that. I still have some confidence."

"Why? You have to know that even though you killed the limited-time body of that god last time, he will come again this time, and he has obviously made sufficient preparations.

I don’t even know how long they’ve been preparing for this moment, and you know, your condition doesn’t allow you to play to your full potential.”

Xiadaiti looked at Alka from the side and said very solemnly.

“And there’s a Devouring Mouth next to it. Damn it! These traitorous gods are all sinister and cunning villains.

They will definitely not fight you so easily, and they will definitely set up many traps for you there." Jason also reminded from the side.

Everyone was talking about the risks Alka would face this time.

In fact, it goes without saying.

The worst that can happen is that we can just give up this tower.

This tower is strong enough. Unless the world is broken, the tower, which is connected to the rules, is basically difficult to destroy.

It's even difficult to move.

That is to say, this trial island and this trial tower will always stay here.

Alka could have first tried to find a crown-level treasure to stabilize the connection between his real body and his dream soul.

Use your overwhelming strength to crush these insidious things.
