Fighting for the Purple Immortal Island

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When it rained, it poured.

The assault boat swayed violently under the attack of the mutated water snake and was about to capsize.

"Hit it in the eye!"

Tang Xiqing tried his best to control the assault boat. Lu Hui took his gun and fired at the mutated water snake's eyes.

The mutated water snake was in pain. It dove into the water and stopped moving.

Naturally, the people on the ship were not naive enough to think that the water snake would die just like that. Not to mention submachine guns, even missiles might not be able to kill this water snake.

As expected, in the next moment, the water snake's huge head blocked in front of it and its bloody mouth pounced on it.

The little girl on the boat was so frightened that she sat down on the boat and cried loudly.

Just as they were about to be swallowed by the mutated water snake, a fishy smell assaulted their noses. They suddenly saw the mutated water snake fly out in a strange posture.

Then, the 30-meter-long body of the mutated water snake suddenly shrunk and disappeared.

"What's that?!"

Tang Xiqing's eyes widened.

Everyone on the ship looked as if they had seen a ghost.

A girl sat on the water and smiled politely at them.

On a closer look, he realized that the girl was sitting on the head of a huge beast. It was this huge beast that had swallowed the mutated water snake just now.

"Thank you for your help just now!" the girl said.

"You, you… are you under the Golden Carp King?" Tang Xiqing rubbed his eyes. They knew that after the Golden Carp King completed its evolution, it was no longer shining with golden light and had become even more ferocious. The most eye-catching characteristic was the golden horn on its head.

"Golden Carp King?" Zhang Shanfeng's jaw dropped. He did not know that the Golden Carp King looked completely different.

"Let's go quickly. The deep-sea beasts are coming." A voice sounded in everyone's mind.

Tang Xiqing and the others were numb. If the Golden Carp King could communicate with them, this news would definitely cause a huge commotion.

Looking back at the huge wave that was so close to them, they decided that it was more important to stay alive. They would thank it later.

The assault boat quickly left.

Zhang Beili faced the huge waves. He came here mainly to fill his stomach with these deep-sea beasts and save Zhang Shanfeng and the others.

Crash!

The huge wave surged into the sky, and Zhang Beili plunged into it. A barrier formed around him like a water curtain, blocking the impact of the water, and preventing Zhang Xuanxuan from being injured.

At this moment, the deep-sea beasts that made countless people tremble in fear were delicious food to Zhang Beili.

After half an hour, he closed his mouth in satisfaction. If not for the fact that he could not refine so much energy in one go, he would have killed the deep-sea beasts everywhere and completed the third-stage evolution.

Evolution could not be rushed.

What Zhang Beili wanted to do now was to go to the Purple Immortal Island and occupy all the resources inside!

"Brother, the Purple Immortal Island you mentioned really has a cultivation technique to become an immortal?" Zhang Xuanxuan asked curiously.

"I'm not too sure about the details. It's said that there's an Ascension Platform on the Purple Immortal Island. Mortals can obtain great benefits when they ascend the Ascension Platform." Zhang Beili did not know much about high-level secrets. In his previous life, he was only a small figure living at the bottom.

"Wow, we're going to become immortals together and enjoy an endless lifespan," Zhang Xuanxuan said.

"It's not that simple." Zhang Beili smiled and shook his head.

The Purple Immortal Island was located in the suburbs of River City. Looking around, the human buildings had basically collapsed from the flood. The entire world was like a sea.

The Purple Immortal Island was wrapped in a hazy fog and could not be seen clearly. More than ten warships were exploring the surroundings of the island. Other than the warships, there were at least a few hundred assault boats. Cannons, machine guns, and other modern weapons were ready.

"The higher-ups have ordered us to occupy this island no matter what!"

The person in charge of the Purple Immortal Island was an eight-foot-tall middle-aged general with a beard. He looked domineering and handsome in his neat military uniform.

A sound came from the walkie-talkie hanging on his waist. "Zhong Haicheng, where are you now?"

Zhong Haicheng frowned slightly and replied, "Commander, I'm cleaning up the mutated creatures near the Purple Immortal Island!"

At the military base, Yang Qing'an looked at the image displayed on the radar and sighed. He pressed the call button on the walkie-talkie and said, "You guys are in trouble."

"What trouble?" Zhong Haicheng was stunned.

"The Golden Carp King… is heading in the direction of the Purple Immortal Island," Yang Qing'an informed. "Don't get into a conflict with the Golden Carp King yet. Stall it. We're having a meeting to discuss!"

Putting down the walkie-talkie, Yang Qing'an glanced at the generals at the conference table and said,

"The Imperial Capital contacted us urgently last night and said that the Purple Immortal Island is very special. It's related to the future development of the empire, so we have to occupy it!"

"Now that the Golden Carp King seems to have taken a fancy to this Spirit Treasure Island, who has a good solution?"

A general closest to Yang Qing'an knocked on the table and sneered at Xia Yujiao. "Immortal Xia, I said that we should kill the Golden Carp King when it evolved. Not only did you not listen, you even sent it food. Now you've shot yourself in the foot, right?"

Xia Yujiao hugged her sword and said coldly, "The Golden Carp King has always been at the forefront of evolution. Do you think you can deal with it with a weapon that can deal with the deep-sea beasts?"

"How would we know if we don't try?!" The male general snorted. "A beast is still a beast. Do you think it'll get along with us just because we send it some food?"

"The Golden Carp King's IQ might even be higher than yours." Xia Yujiao's expression was cold.

"Alright, stop arguing. We are discussing a solution now, not for you to quarrel," Yang Qing'an said.

After saying that, he looked at the chief of staff and asked, "A soldier reported that the Golden Carp King saved their lives last night and even spoke. Is that true?"

"That's right. The Golden Carp King can communicate with people." The chief of staff said solemnly, "This guy is not as simple as an ordinary mutated creature. Moreover, from the looks of it, the Golden Carp King has basically never injured anyone, which proves that it is not hostile to us."

"If we attack him, I'm afraid it won't be the right choice."

"Let's ask the Imperial Capital about this. Let Zhong Haicheng retreat from the vicinity of the Purple Immortal Island first."

Yang Qing'an nodded and said, "It's decided then. The Willow Tree King also advised us not to provoke the Golden Carp King. Let's wait for the Imperial Capital to reply."

After a short meeting, Yang Qing'an quickly contacted Zhong Haicheng.

On the warship, Zhong Haicheng's expression was a little ugly. Back then, he had also supported killing the Golden Carp King. Now that the command center told him to retreat and let the Golden Carp King occupy this island, he was unwilling to accept it.

The assistant beside him observed his thoughts and said, "In my opinion, we should teach the Golden Carp King a lesson. Otherwise, this guy will really be lawless. It even dares to snatch our territory!"

Zhong Haicheng took a deep breath. "I really don't understand why the command center is so afraid of this big fish."

The assistant asked carefully, "Should we withdraw our troops now?"

Zhong Haicheng narrowed his eyes and said, "Let's not retreat for now. Wait ten minutes."
