Heroes' Prison

Chapter 802 - 763: A Bizarre Giant Eye

The oceanic expanse of The Second World is vast and limitless, dotted with mysterious, uncharted islands. These islands might hold treasures buried deep, grow unheard-of Spirit Grass, or harbor creatures that cannot be found anywhere else.

For instance, the fierce battle between the Giant Bear and the Pharaoh recently occurred because they had both discovered a mysterious island. That island contained precious resources such as World Stones, ultimately leading to their confrontation.

Now, Huang Yi has encountered such an island filled with treasures!

Before, he might have had to struggle to get those treasures. But now, with the Deep Sea Demon Flesh, everything has become much easier—he can crush through any danger directly.

"God of Slaughter, this island feels a little eerie!" Just then, the Tidal Calling Siren Princess frowned, her beautiful face filled with gravity as she spoke.

"What’s wrong?" Huang Yi’s heart skipped, and he quickly asked.

"Just take a look for yourself!" The Tidal Calling Siren Princess extended her delicate finger, summoning a dense concentration of Water Elements from the surrounding air and condensed them into a water orb that quickly floated toward Huang Yi.

Huang Yi stared closely at the water orb.

To his horror, he soon noticed that the water orb was dissipating, breaking back into Water Elements and drifting toward a particular direction, trailing behind a long path.

It looked as though something far away was absorbing the elements of heaven and earth, drawing even the Water Elements toward itself!

And the direction toward which those Water Elements were scattering was none other than the mysterious island.

The Tidal Calling Siren Princess was an exceptional expert at the Heavenly Domain Level. The water orb she had condensed shouldn’t have dissolved so quickly—it should have lasted for an extended amount of time unless actively dispelled.

Yet even her conjured water orb was disappearing at an alarming rate. Clearly, something incredibly powerful within the island was absorbing these Water Elements.

"Actually, not just Water Elements," the Siren Princess said gravely, her beautiful eyes fixed firmly on the distant island. "I can sense that all things with spiritual energy in this world seem to be getting absorbed by that island."

"Let me take a closer look first! Stop the Deep Sea Demon Flesh here!" Huang Yi said, summoning Little Dragon and flying toward the island.

Having been confined for a while, Little Dragon perked up as soon as it breathed the free air of the ocean. Flapping its wings with excitement, it let out a thunderous roar that echoed across the sea.

Before long, Little Dragon carried Huang Yi to the island.

From up close, the island appeared rather large, with several towering peaks. Viewed from the skies, the island’s lush forests were filled with giant trees, and the occasional roars of wild beasts echoed through the woods, signaling an overwhelming sense of vitality.

At first glance, the island seemed normal—no rampaging Magical Beasts, no manmade structures. It looked just like an ordinary island.

The only anomaly was the overly abundant life force within its forest! The trees below, known as Straight Leaf Trees, were species Huang Yi had seen many times on other islands in recent days. On those other islands, these trees grew no taller than 20–30 meters. Yet here, they towered to astonishing heights of 50–60 meters, far surpassing their limits.

Huang Yi urged Little Dragon to fly toward the nearest treasure point as located through his Treasure-sniffing Ability. Soon, Little Dragon hovered over the designated area.

The target area was a canyon filled with dense vegetation. Faint signs of animal activity could be discerned below—nothing seemed out of the ordinary compared to the rest of the island.

"Little Dragon, use fire to burn down the forest!" Huang Yi thought for a moment and patted Little Dragon’s head.

Little Dragon nodded its head and opened its mouth toward the valley. It unleashed a stream of Sacred Flame of the Holy Dragon upon the forest below.

"Whoosh!" A torrent of blazing flames descended from above, like fire raining from heaven!

This was the flame of the Golden Holy Dragon, imbued with a 50% Holy Element attack. Its adhesive properties were extremely potent—once ignited, it was nearly impossible to extinguish. The fire would rage for a long time.

In an instant, the entire canyon fell into chaos. The towering trees caught alight and burned fiercely, releasing thick plumes of white smoke!

The flaming inferno rapidly reduced the forest to ashes, scattering debris across the wind and exposing the barren ground.

"Hmm? What’s this... they’re not dead yet?" To his shock, Huang Yi noticed a herd of living wild deer beneath the forest!

These deer were far larger than ordinary ones, nearly several times the size. Their auras were extraordinary, emanating with an unmistakable spiritual energy, resembling Immortal Deer.

Though injured under the Sacred Flames of the Holy Dragon, they were still alive. Raising their heads, they snarled at Little Dragon in the sky with ferocious expressions!

A few of the larger deer even spat out torrents of water arrows, launching aggressive Magic Attacks toward Little Dragon!

These supposedly peaceful wild deer were behaving like savage carnivores, capable of Magic! This defied all natural logic!

Little Dragon’s agile frame maneuvered deftly to avoid the deer’s attacks. Feeling provoked, it furiously intensified the Sacred Flame’s output, unleashing the wrath of its Golden Holy Dragon heritage.

This time, the deer finally succumbed to heavy damage, burning to ashes. The ground lay utterly barren and unobstructed.

Huang Yi scanned the surface but found nothing. There could only be one explanation—the treasures must be buried underground!

After contemplating briefly, he decided to return to the Deep Sea Demon Flesh to leverage its brute force for the search.

"Tidal Calling Siren Princess, guide the Deep Sea Demon Flesh to crush its way through the island!" Huang Yi ordered upon returning to the Cloud Sail Battleship.

The Siren Princess nodded, raising her hand to unleash a Heavenly Domain Level Water Magic Spell right onto the Deep Sea Demon Flesh’s tentacles!

"Boom!" Jolted into motion, the massive creature charged forward, sending waves crashing outward as the sea convulsed beneath its bulk.

The colossal figure of the Deep Sea Demon Flesh moved with the force of nature itself, leveling everything in its path as it collided against the island and rolled over it!

Its sheer size dwarfed the island, crushing everything underfoot completely!

Once the Deep Sea Demon Flesh had passed over to the other side, Huang Yi turned to inspect the island.

By now, the island had become a vision of hell—soil and stones churned up, its peaks obliterated and ground into flat earth. The lush trees that had once thrived were now splintered debris, their essence utterly destroyed.

A vibrant, thriving island had transformed into a desolate wasteland, silent and lifeless, void of any sound or vitality.

Huang Yi mounted Little Dragon again, flying back to the island’s skies.

He headed to each location marked by his senses, clearing the debris from the surface and collecting treasures.

Most of the treasures were natural resources—Magic Ore, natural crystals, and the like; very few were artificial objects.

After gathering everything, he flew toward the final area. The items exuding an epic aura and the Divine Artifact Fragment were all concentrated in this zone, seemingly indicating it as a pivotal treasure site!

As Huang Yi approached, his body trembled uncontrollably. His gaze fixated on the far end of the island.

What he saw there was an utterly shocking sight!

At the edge of the island stood an enormous eye, towering dozens of meters high, coldly staring at him under the blazing sun!

The eye resembled a human’s, with the whites marked by twisted, fearsome red veins resembling writhing worms, all converging around its pitch-black pupil.

Amidst the ruins, this eye was bizarrely prominent and unnervingly terrifying!

Locking eyes with this monstrous eye, Huang Yi felt a chill down his spine, as though some unspeakable horror had set its sights on him. Even the sunlight seemed devoid of warmth.

Why would an abandoned island hold such a colossal eye?

To whom did this eye belong?

What purpose could this eye serve?

Huang Yi swallowed hard, sensing the sheer absurdity of what lay before him.

Who could have imagined an island containing such a sight?

Surrounding the eye were mounds of earth and rubble, evidence that it had been buried deep beneath the ground. The Deep Sea Demon Flesh’s rampage had cleared away the surface, revealing the eye, yet not damaging it in the slightest—a testament to its formidable resilience.

"Woof! Woof!" Little Dragon, upon seeing the eye, let out guarded barks. Its body visibly tensed, seemingly apprehensive, and its flight slowed down hesitantly.

Although Little Dragon was a Golden Holy Dragon, still in its growth phase and not yet at its peak, it was far stronger than typical dragons. Even so, facing this eye made it uneasy!

"Don’t be nervous. Let’s get closer to take a look!" Huang Yi took a deep breath and patted Little Dragon’s head to calm it down.

Little Dragon steadied itself and cautiously flapped its wings, approaching the gigantic eye.

Now face-to-face, Huang Yi gazed directly into the vast eye.

Up close, the eye was even more terrifying, its twisted veins like red serpents slithering within the eyeball, squirming as though alive.

An overwhelming pressure emanated from the eye, enveloping Huang Yi entirely.

The presence of the eye was too horrifying. Huang Yi could almost sense its stare physically pressing down on him, though he couldn’t ascertain whether the eye was dead or alive! (To be continued.
