This assassin is upright

Chapter 284 See you again on the original island? (Seeking monthly tickets!)

“What a huge ocean~”

Yu Zhun lay on the deck with his hands on his head, staring blankly at the white clouds floating in the clear sky.

Three or four days have passed since we set out to sea.

After leaving the village, he never saw any land again, only endless sea.

You know, during these few days, Yu Zhun had no intention of saving his willpower, so the speed of the pleasure boat was so fast that it seemed like flying on the water, and he did not go in circles, always choosing the same direction.

Under these circumstances, it was quite outrageous not to see any land or islands for three or four days.

At this moment, he faced a very important decision.

Should I turn around and spend three or four days going back? Or should I keep going forward and gamble that I will soon see land or an island?

"Mad, give it a try!"

Yu Zhun sat up suddenly, his eyes firm.

He will keep moving forward.

No space can be absolutely without boundaries, and the same is true for this unknown world.

There is no sea in [Tianxu Holy Realm], but there is one here.

So Yu Zhun always had a feeling that there might be clues he wanted to know in the ocean.

Time passed little by little, and about another day passed. Yu Zhun looked into the distance at the sea level and finally saw a small black dot vaguely at the end.

"There's something!" Yu Zhun's spirits instantly lifted, and he accelerated the [Water Sky Boat] again and shot towards the direction of the black spot.

As the black spot in his sight gradually grew larger, the outline of an island gradually became clear before Yu Zhun's eyes.

When he saw the island clearly, Yu Zhun's pupils suddenly shrank and his expression became stunned.

This island…

So familiar!
In the secret island that was destroyed before he fell into a coma, he and his four teammates pieced together a dozen broken islands bit by bit, and put them together into a complete island, which they called the "original island."

And now, the island that appeared before his eyes was surprisingly similar to the outline of the original island.

When he stepped onto the island and measured it bit by bit with his footsteps, Yu Zhun's expression became more and more surprised.

Not only are the outlines similar, but the sizes are exactly the same.

Standing on this island, Yu Zhun almost thought that he was still in the secret island.

But he remembered clearly that when the secret island was destroyed, the original island had turned into ashes along with the secret realm.

Yu Zhun stopped and his face looked uncertain.

Could it be that the unknown world he is in now has an important connection with the secret island?
if it is like this…

Brigadier General Yu looked towards the seabed that had not been explored in depth before.

Is there some special existence under the sea here?

With this guess in mind, Yu Zhun hesitated for only a moment, then jumped into the sea without hesitation.

"thump--"

Once you enter the sea, everything seems exceptionally quiet. The sunlight shines through the sea surface, casting dots of light like silver scales.

After a brief exploration, Yu Zhun returned to the shore.

He didn't encounter any dangerous creatures, but he saw a few ordinary small fish.

In addition, Yu Zhun saw the part of the original island under the sea surface.

Although the island above the sea was the same as the original one in his impression, beneath the sea it was just an ordinary island.

This discovery made Yu Zhun frown again.

So far, there seems to be nothing wrong beneath the surface.

But it would be a lie to ourselves to say that the similarity between this island and the original is purely coincidental.

Everything here is too normal, but this too normal situation is precisely an abnormality.

After a moment's silence, Yu Zhun boarded the [Shui Tian Zhou] again, marked the location of this place, and continued to move towards the distance.

He wanted to see if there was anything unusual here.
-
"Made..."

Lu Wen stared in amazement at the endless desert before him.

"Why do I feel this place is so familiar the more I look at it?"

Following the direction from which the group of guys who attacked him came, Lu Wen searched all the way but did not see any traces of human beings.

He walked all the way from the mountains to the desert, and finally came here.

And this desert gave him a sense of déjà vu.

As if thinking of the bad past, Lu Wen looked at the sand under his feet with a vigilant look.

But after a long time, the sand still did not move at all.

"This is really strange..." he muttered to himself as he walked deeper into the desert.

The further he walked, the stranger his expression became.

“It’s exactly the same.”

If we ignore the desert monsters that may emerge from the sand at any time, this place is almost exactly the same as the secret place he had visited before.

"So, why aren't those monsters here?"

Lu Wen stomped on the sand under his feet, but the sand still did not move, which made Lu Wen have an idea.

"How about...I'll take the initiative to go down and try?"

He did it as soon as he thought of it. Lu Wen pulled out two swords from their scabbards and used them as shovels, and started digging with all his strength.

Soon a deep pit appeared on the sand, and sand kept flying out of the pit and falling on both sides.

As time passed, the pit became deeper and deeper. Lu Wen, who was able to throw the sand out of the pit at first, could now only temporarily store the dug sand in his backpack bit by bit.

One thousand meters... two thousand meters... three thousand meters...

Lu Wen dug mechanically, his expression becoming increasingly dull.

Damn it, it’s so deep, why haven’t we found the cave yet?

Only after digging to the depth of two underground caves did Lu Wen angrily throw his two swords aside and said, "Damn it, I won't dig any more!"

He guessed wrong. Although the desert here was the same as that in the secret realm, there was no cave underneath and no monsters.

Thinking of this, Lu Wen couldn't help but raise his head...

The next moment, his expression fell.

A pit several thousand meters high...

"How am I supposed to get up there?!"
-
"Finally there is land!"

After continuing to explore in the same direction for a long time, Yu Zhun's eyes quickly lit up when he saw a line suddenly appearing at the end of the sea level.

In addition to the previous island, Yu Zhun discovered several more islands one after another, but there was nothing unusual about these islands, so after some exploration, Yu Zhun finally chose to give up and leave.

And now, he finally saw the land he had expected.

"This unknown world is really huge." Thinking of the exploration during this period, Yu Zhun couldn't help but sigh.

Comparing the scope alone, Yu Zhun’s current exploration range is almost exceeding the map range of [Tianxu Holy Realm].

But he had only crossed a piece of sea in this world, and he didn't know how many such lands and seas there were.

"I hope the other piece of land can give me a little surprise." Muttering softly, Yu Zhun controlled the boat to accelerate to the shore.

After reaching the beach, he retracted the [Water Sky Boat] and looked around curiously. There was no trace of human beings or villages here. It was covered with lush primitive jungle that stretched as far as the eye could see.

"anyone there--"

He cupped his hands around his cheeks, yelled, then shook his head and chuckled, "I'm overthinking it. How could there be someone in this position..."

"Whoosh-"

There was a sharp sound of breaking wind. Yu Zhun's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he caught the arrow that was shot at his face. He followed the direction of the arrow and looked at the figure that flashed in the jungle.

Is there really anyone?

"Stop!"

With a low shout, Yu Zhun chased after the other party as fast as lightning.

When he caught the arrow, Yu Zhun felt that the opponent's attack was very weak and could almost be ignored by him.

This means that the opponent is not strong.

Without strong strength, the speed will naturally not be fast either.

Within a breath or two, Yu Zhun had come behind the other person and pinned him down hard.

He was a very primitive man wearing a grass skirt, carrying a primitive bow and arrow on his back. This was the weapon he used to attack Yu Zhun.

"Why are you attacking me?"

"You are a sinner and will be judged by the 'Great God'!" The man roared madly, looking at Yu Zhun with deep hatred in his eyes.

Yu Zhun frowned slightly.

Great God?

He had heard this word in Lanshi Village across the sea.

He didn't pay much attention to it at the time and just regarded it as some kind of local belief.

But across such a vast sea, in the mouth of a nearly primitive man, he heard the same word...

Yu Zhun’s expression gradually became solemn.

If this "great god" really exists, his influence is really terrifying.

In addition, the other party's hatred seemed to come out of nowhere. After all, he had just arrived on this land and had done nothing.

"What kind of sinners are you talking about?" Yu Zhun asked in a deep voice.

The man did not answer, but just looked at Yu Zhun with hatred. Even when Yu Zhun put the dagger on his neck, he just kept cursing.

The dagger ended the man's life with a single stroke. Yu Zhun murmured in a low voice, "This belief... is a little too devout."

As he said this, he turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly he realized something was wrong and looked back at the man's body.

As time passed, Yu Zhun's expression became more and more solemn.

The body did not disappear, and he did not gain any power of wish.

He had never taken action before in Lanshi Village. It was only when he came here and killed someone for the first time that he realized this problem.

"So..." Yu Zhun looked down at the dagger in his hand, "There is no way to obtain wish power in this place, at least not from the magic system."

Taking a deep breath, Yu Zhun continued walking deeper into the woods.

In this way, you will have to be more restrained when using your willpower next time.

Walking quickly through the woods, Yu Zhun did not encounter any human figures, which made him frown slightly.

Did he miss the human traces hidden in the woods, or did the primitive man just appear out of nowhere?
Just as he was thinking, Yu Zhun suddenly stopped.

He approached the nearest tree, reached out and touched the rough bark on the trunk, frowning slightly.

This touch...

Sounds a bit familiar?
Realizing the familiar source, Yu Zhun's movement of stroking the bark suddenly froze, and the next moment he jumped up and leaped above the tree canopy.

A familiar forest appeared before his eyes.

This is…

Yu Zhun's pupils suddenly shrank and his expression gradually became stunned.

Although it has been a while since then, he thinks his memory is still pretty good.

The forest before him was exactly the same as the secret realm he first encountered in the [Tianxu Holy Realm]!

If only the previous original island was discovered, Yu Zhun would only think that this unknown world was related to the previous secret island.

But now, as he discovered a place in the unknown world that was exactly the same as the secret forest, his previous speculation was quietly overturned.

One could be a coincidence, but two certainly cannot be.

A horrifying guess popped up in Yu Zhun's mind.

Is it possible that any scene in the secret realm can find a completely corresponding scene here?
If this speculation is true...

So where exactly this place is seems to become clear all of a sudden.

After all, according to his previous speculation about the secret realms, all the secret realms in the [Tianxu Holy Realm] are actually small spaces where the master of the [Tianxu Holy Realm], the master of the Tianxu Divine Palace, seals the strong.

If that is the case, then all the secret realms must have been created by the other party. This place is suspected to be related to the origin of the secret realm...

Naturally it also has something to do with the other party!
If we continue to follow this speculation...

Yu Zhun’s brows furrowed even more.

"Great God" also refers to the master of Tianxu Temple?

Yu Zhun rubbed his brows and became more frightened the more he thought about it.

He still hasn't figured out how big this world is, but what is certain is that it is probably the largest world he has ever seen. Yu Zhun has no idea how many indigenous people there are here.

If all the natives of this world believed in the master of Tianxu Temple...

Then this place is completely the other party’s private reserve of faith!
Almost subconsciously, Yu Zhun took out the [Wish Gem] and wanted to try to teleport away.

But the next moment, his expression turned ugly.

Hundreds of thousands of wishes are not enough to leave here?

After a moment of silence, Yu Zhun slowly raised his head, with a burning fighting spirit in his eyes, "I will never be trapped here!"

In a short period of time, Yu Zhun vaguely thought of the clue to break the deadlock.

That was what the primitive man called him before!
The so-called "sinners".

There are only two possibilities for the other party to call him that.

The first possibility is that there is some factor in Yu Zhun that he himself cannot perceive, which allows the indigenous people to recognize that there is something wrong with his origins, and thus develop strong hostility and hatred towards him.

But Yu Zhun thinks this possibility is not very high.

The reason was very simple. On the other side of the sea, in the fishing village called Lanshi Village, he had not been attacked or treated hostilely by anyone. The indigenous people there treated him like a normal stranger.

"In that case, then it can only be the second possibility."

Yu Zhun murmured.

"This person may not be seeing me for the first time."

If it was when he first met the other party, Yu Zhun might have been completely confused, but here, not far from the other party, Yu Zhun saw a scene that was exactly the same as the secret realm he had destroyed.

So is there a possibility...

When Yu Zhun destroyed the secret realm of the forest, the man saw him and regarded his act of destroying the secret realm as a "sin"?
"If each secret realm is taken from a corner of this world, the people who appear in the corresponding secret realm may really be able to interact with the corresponding scene in this world."

Yu Zhun's eyes flickered slightly.

"But this cannot be easily verified."

"unless…"

"Someone has entered a new secret realm, and I happen to be near the scene that corresponds to that secret realm in this world!"

Thinking of this, Yu Zhun couldn't help but feel a little excited.

Although, this possibility is not that great.

But if there is a chance to achieve this...

"The secret realm can interact with this world in some way, so conversely, this world may also interact with the secret realm!"
