"What on earth, am I seeing things? Why did our boss let that crab go? Wouldn't it have been delicious to make soup with it?"
Guras, tears in his eyes, rubbed his empty stomach and sighed deeply.
The other members of the Glory team around him also looked completely bewildered. After all, Xu Yang had already suppressed it with such terrifying power; why then did he choose to spare its life in the end?
However, only Xu Yang could provide the answer to that question.
Soon, when Xu Yang returned to the Black Pearl with the enormous crab claw, his trophy, the members of the Glory team immediately gathered around him, forming a circle.
"You don't need to look at me like that; I naturally know what you want to ask. That crab has been beaten back to blue-level cultivation strength and no longer poses any threat to us. What's more, half of its vital essence has already been transferred back into the Black Pearl for you all to use for cultivation. Surely such a gift is worth sparing its relatively worthless life?"
Upon hearing Xu Yang say this, all the other members of the Glory team hung their heads in shame. They had to admit that they began to reflect on whether they had been too greedy, but this scene did not last long.
Xu Yang chuckled, breaking the momentary silence.
"Look at your crestfallen faces. In the world of cultivation, the law of the jungle is merely a fundamental rule. However, I want to impart an idea to you: forgive when you can. When an opponent has completely lost their ability to threaten you, try not to kill them if it's avoidable. This can be seen as accumulating a little fortune for future generations. Prolonged slaughter can accumulate a certain degree of malevolent energy deep within a cultivator's heart. While this negative effect may not fully manifest in the short term, once it builds up to a certain extent, it will inevitably cause significant problems for your future cultivation. It could even lead to a life-threatening qi deviation at a crucial moment. Therefore, killing is never a true solution to problems; it is merely a means to clear obstacles and achieve goals at the appropriate time. Never mistake slaughter as the true path to higher cultivation, otherwise, you will eventually stray from the right path in your temperament and descend into an abyss from which there is no return."
Whenever these moments arose, Xu Yang would become exceptionally serious. All the members of the Glory team, listening to his guidance, adopted a humble and attentive posture; none dared to act rashly.
"Understood, Boss. We will engrave your admonitions and guidance in our hearts."
Xu Yang nodded with satisfaction. "Guras, go locate any island strongholds nearby. Let's find a place to rest our feet, stew this crab meat, and give you all a boost, while also enhancing your strength. We've now eliminated two of the three Endless Sea overlords. The last one remains, and while we might not find it in the short term, that's no longer important. It's time for us to refocus our offensive target on Dragon Demon Island."
Xu Yang roughly calculated the time in his mind. According to his data analysis, Dragon Demon Island's most recent millennium eruption would soon occur, leaving little time for everyone to land on the island. If they failed to land on the island before then, once the Endless Sea Millennium Tribulation descended, all the top-tier marine species previously dormant in the depths of the Endless Sea would awaken and surge around Dragon Demon Island. At that point, landing on Dragon Demon Island and invading a place they consider sacred, all while under the collective watchful eyes of hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of marine creatures, would undoubtedly be an impossible feat.
Of course, with Xu Yang's strength, if he were determined to land, no number of sea creatures could stop him. However, he didn't want to turn the entire Endless Sea into an ocean of blood simply to satisfy the selfish desires of a few individuals. Since there was an easier way to solve the problem, why not take it?
"Reporting, Boss! A new location has been identified, but the island's formation is quite unusual, and the radar wave signals detected around it are also very peculiar."
Hearing Guras's words, everyone quickly entered the control cabin's command room and gazed at the radar display, soon noticing some unusual signs.
"Boss, based on our many years of sailing experience, this peculiar radar pattern suggests the presence of a powerful energy sealing array around that island, which is likely responsible for generating this unique wave signature."
Xu Yang nodded, a look of realization dawning on his face. "So that's it! The presence of array wave energy indicates that outsiders must be stationed there. Isn't that precisely what we're looking for? Let's go investigate!"
With this new direction, the Black Pearl immediately set off at full speed. The incredibly powerful vessel, operating at maximum capacity, moved astonishingly fast, covering the original eight hundred nautical miles in just half an hour.
Standing on the deck, Xu Yang and the others gazed intently at the island before them.
"My goodness, the radar didn't indicate such a large area! It's astonishing to see how vast this island truly is up close; it's absolutely eye-opening!" Mr. and Mrs. Plancisi were the most astonished, as they had sailed the seas for hundreds of years and had never before encountered such an enormous, isolated island. From their vantage point on the deck, they could only glimpse the tip of this enormous island.
"I'd say an island of this size could rival a small city-state on the Western Continent!" Lister said, a cigar in his mouth, his face filled with pleasant surprise.
"Regardless of its origins, since we're here, let's explore it first." Xu Yang, however, remained composed. Powerful individuals never panic when encountering something new, as they possess the strength to resolve any unforeseen events. Nothing from the unknown poses a fatal threat to those who are truly strong.
After re-sealing the Black Pearl, Xu Yang and the others disembarked from the deck, one by one, to land on the enormous island. As expected, a powerful energy seal tightly enveloped the entire island, immediately drawing the close attention of Xu Yang and the others.
"Boss, judging by the sheer size of this sealing array, there must be quite a few top-tier experts residing on this island. Perhaps the remaining factions of the Ten Great Legions are hidden here!"
Lister's words quickly met with unanimous agreement from the rest of the team.
"If that's the case, then it would be incredibly convenient."
