Heroes' Prison-Chapter 1285 - 1220: Barbaric Turtle Village

After Huang Yi logged in, he decided to absorb the five pieces of Heroic Aura from the Fallen God Continent.

The Fallen God Continent is the most dangerous place in The Second World, located deep within the oceans of the desolate Southern Hemisphere.

Among the more than two hundred continents in The Second World, the vast majority are situated in the Northern Hemisphere, while the Southern Hemisphere is mostly endless ocean, nearly forgotten. Even most world maps omit the Southern Hemisphere, showing only the geographic features of the Northern Hemisphere.

The Second World knows very little about the ocean regions of the Southern Hemisphere, and even the Oskan Royal Academy is unaware of what species exist there. Only a few explorers who have survived trips to the Southern Hemisphere have left behind legends of its ocean realms.

Legend has it that the waters of the Southern Hemisphere are bottomlessly deep, hosting various strange sea monsters, including some relic species from the Eternal Ancient Era. Their appearances often cause colossal tsunamis, hurricanes of fury, beyond human force to resist. Compared to the oceans of the Southern Hemisphere, those of the Northern Hemisphere resemble safe ponds.

Due to these reasons, the Southern Hemisphere has very few Public Teleportation Arrays, so Huang Yi has to fly there himself to reach the Fallen God Continent.

At this moment, Huang Yi’s incarnation is flapping the Wings of the Sun Chaser, flying towards the Fallen God Continent.

Initially, he would pass by some islands and continents, occasionally catching sight of bustling cities. But after crossing the equator and entering the Southern Hemisphere, the number of islands dwindled, and villages and cities became a rare sight.

Half an hour later, the Wings of the Sun Chaser accelerated to light speed. Huang Yi could no longer clearly see the scene below, with only a chaotic blue expanse in his vision, as if moving through a river of time and space.

However, even at light speed, it takes quite a time to reach the Fallen God Continent. For ordinary people, it may take years, decades, or possibly never reach it.

After flying at light speed for a while, Huang Yi suddenly felt a pull, as if an invisible force was forcibly slowing him down, beyond even his Ascension Stage strength to resist.

His speed slowed increasingly, and his body felt torn apart. Finally, when his speed reduced to a certain level, the chaotic and unclear colors in his view gradually became distinct, allowing him to observe specific objects again.

He saw a giant island had somehow appeared in the ocean below, covered in bamboo groves, with small village huts nestled within the groves.

Huang Yi felt it was this massive island below that slowed him down, like a giant magnet pulling him.

He decided to descend and explore.

At that moment, he was startled to discover the island was moving rapidly!

Observing from the air, the movement was hard to detect, but after lowering his altitude, he could distinctly perceive the ground beneath advancing like rapid lightning, with bamboo groves rushing like carpets. If he didn’t adjust where he fell, he might miss the island and fall into the wake left behind it.

Upon closely observing, Huang Yi was astonished to find it was not an island, but a colossal sea turtle.

The turtle was so gigantic, its shell resembled an island, overgrown with bamboo groves and even housing some living creatures.

This giant turtle has been roaming the sea surface for countless years, showing from the bamboo and creatures on its back, that it has never submerged to the sea bottom for years, always staying above sea level.

Now, Huang Yi finally landed in one of the bamboo groves on the turtle’s back.

"[System Prompt]: You have discovered the Barbaric Turtle Village, experience points +1000000."

"Barbaric Turtle!" Upon hearing these words, Huang Yi immediately recalled a species from the Eternal Ancient Era.

In the Eternal Ancient Era, The Second World had many giant creatures capable of tearing the skies and shattering the earth, overturning rivers and seas, and even preying on the Dragon Clan, among them was the Barbaric Turtle.

But these giant species were extremely difficult to breed, and their intelligence was low. As humanity developed and strengthened, and nature’s spiritual energy gradually depleted, they became extinct.

According to historical records, the last sighting of a Barbaric Turtle was in the Ancient Times. Back then, Bloodhoof the Ascendant, having just reached Demigod Level, caught a brief glimpse of a Barbaric Turtle in the Feyma Trench.

However, Huang Yi still wasn’t sure whether the island he was on was indeed the legendary Barbaric Turtle.

The bamboo grove Huang Yi landed in was quiet, with occasional sounds of cicadas and birds, and somewhere afar a few monkeys were leaping among the trees, emitting crisp calls.

Warm sunlight filtered through the bamboo leaves, as a breeze rustled them with a soft sound.

Huang Yi stepped forward towards several village houses he saw earlier from the sky.

Exiting the bamboo grove, he saw several rustic village homes built entirely of bamboo, with roofs covered with patches of grass and flowers blooming atop them.

The nearest village home had its door open, with a few chickens leisurely pecking on the lawn, and a big yellow dog lazily basking in the sun, taking a nap.

A song drifted from the house, seemingly sung softly by an old man, adding serenity to the afternoon sunshine.

Huang Yi tiptoed closer to the village home, the big yellow dog at the door lifted its eyelids and glanced at Huang Yi, then closed its eyes to continue sleeping, showing no sign of alertness.

Huang Yi stepped inside the house.

The furnishings were simple, just a few bamboo tables, chairs, and beds, like an ordinary village household.

Beside a window inside the room, an old man was sitting on a bamboo chair, softly humming a tune while cradling a young girl to sleep.

The afternoon sunlight shone through the window upon them, the little girl peacefully resting in the old man’s arms, smacking her lips as if she just fell asleep.

At this moment, the old man noticed Huang Yi’s arrival and was slightly surprised but not startled. He nodded gently, gesturing towards the girl in his arms as if to tell Huang Yi to remain quiet.

Huang Yi quietly sat down on a chair by the door, the warm sunlight slanting in, dust particles dancing in the light beam. Outside, faint cicada sounds whispered through the bamboo grove, carrying a gentle echo as if from afar, softly brushing Huang Yi’s ear.

He hadn’t experienced such tranquility for a long time; all fame and noise drifted away, all battles and bloodshed evaporated, as if returning to the carefree times of childhood.

A breeze gusted into the room, gently closing Huang Yi’s eyelids.

In this secluded ancient village, in this peaceful afternoon, Huang Yi fell asleep in tranquility.
