Chapter 798: Chapter 797: Rainbow Island Unleashed
"Master Ling, I am not Shi Xuanzhong."
Seeing Ling Jingsi behaving frantically, Shi Xiaole has to remind him.
The smile on Ling Jingsi’s face gradually faded, the red spot also faded, he stopped struggling and murmured, "I know you’re not, but how I wish you were."
The tone of his voice was full of despair, and Shi Xiaole suddenly woke up. Ling Jingsi sounded confident, but in his heart, he probably didn’t think Shi Xuanzhong could escape from the five Void Origin Realm powerhouses.
You have to know, besides the Thousand Dark Poison Emperor, the other four were already well-known thousands of years ago and had declared themselves emperors. They are among the top ten extraordinary masters of the West Sea Islands!
Five people working together, with deliberate intent against an unsuspected victim, is nearly a desperate situation for anyone in the world.
Not wanting to make the other party sad, Shi Xiaole said, "About three years ago, my father appeared and entered Rainbow Island!"
Hearing this, Ling Jingsi was shocked again as if his cherished dream was confirmed, his dull eyes showed strong joy for real this time.
He didn’t doubt the words of Shi Xiaole
Not only because of the latter’s identity, but also because he risked danger to enter here, which itself explained many issues.
"Good, good, perhaps in my lifetime, I might see Brother Shi again! Child, you look so much like your father, as if carved from the same mold."
The tone of his speech carried a rarely heard warmth.
"Uncle Ling, I don’t have much time, can you tell me how to save you?"
"Haha, you can’t save me. The arrangements here cannot be overcome even by the strongest person in the West Sea, perhaps only your father might have a chance."
"Is he very strong?"
"Very strong, the only master I’ve ever come across in my life."
Ling Jingsi falls into deep reminiscence, "he first time I met your father in the ancient ruins, I wasn’t convinced by him. We even fought for treasures several times. But he always showed mercy. Later, when I was trapped by the Chou Family, unexpectedly your father saved me, disregarding our past disputes."
"At that time, though I grumbled, I was secretly grateful. During my recuperation, your mother took care of me and inevitably I discussed martial arts with your father. That fool! He offered many unconventional insights that had never been heard before, which greatly improved my understanding!"
"He is a true genius, that provoked my jealousy, but he was too kind, so kind that I wanted to punch him! Heh, I always return a favor, so in the following days, I travelled with your father, secretly protecting him so that he wouldn’t be fooled by others!""
Shi Xiaole nodded, "How did my father come into conflict with the Thousand Dark Poison Emperor?"
A strong regret and pain flashed across Ling Jingsi’s face, "I don’t know! At that time, because of the Qin Building incident, I had to leave temporarily. By the time I settled the matter, I heard that the five great masters had teamed up to kill him. I, I did my best to rush over but was still a step too late, only to see blood everywhere..."
Shi Xiaole, infected by him, felt suffocated and asked, "After that, there hasn’t been any news of them?"
"I used all the resources of the Qin Building to investigate for many years and found the Emotionless Whip Emperor and his four allies. However, I fell into their trap and was captured."
"Uncle Ling, do you know why my father came to the West Sea?"
A light appeared on Ling Jingsi’s thin face, it’s a mixture of admiration, astonishment, and pride: "He came to look for ancient martial arts civilization."
"Brother Shi had conclusive evidence to prove that a long time ago, there was a flourishing martial arts civilization, and our current civilization is only a rebuilding after its demise. He wants to instil the essence of both civilisations and carve a path for the future that no one had walked!"
Shi Xiaole involuntarily drew a breath. With his talent, he didn’t dare to think so far ahead. It turned out that his father had started his journey a thousand years ago.
"Brother Shi had another objective. He suspected that the reason for the destruction of the ancient civilization was not natural calamities but a human-made catastrophe! He wanted to find some clues."
Ling Jingsi revealed another shocking news.
Shi Xiaole forced himself to calm down and asked a question he always wanted to know, "Uncle Ling, do you know anything about the background of my father and mother?"
Ling Jingsi looked deeply at him, "I am not sure about your mother, but your father once told me that he is from Outer Heaven Mountain, Peach Blossom Village."
"Where is it?"
"He didn’t say, it seems to be something he is reluctant to discuss"
"Uncle Ling, didn’t you look it up?"
"Hmph! if your father did not want to disclose it, how could I take action in secret?"
Shi Xiaole’s face turned red from Ling’s words, but he silently remembered the name of the place in his heart, planning to investigate it once he finds a way out.
"Right, you just said that your father entered Rainbow Island, it seems that he must be looking for the Exotic Fruit to extend your mother’s lifespan."
Only then did Shi Xiaole know that his mother Ling Yujie is a common person, at least she has never shown martial arts cultivation in front of others. Despite consuming numerous spirit drugs, only the Exotic Fruit from the world’s top ten could continue to extend her life.
Listening to Ling Jingsi talk about many things about his parents, Shi Xiaole remembered them one by one.
"Since you managed to sneak in here, you should leave quickly, lest you be discovered."
Ling Jingsi urged him.
"Uncle Ling, take good care of yourself, I will definitely find a way to rescue you."
Shi Xiaole said solemnly.
Ling Jingsi laughed silently, repeatedly promising in approval.
Since he was Brother Shi’s child, his talent naturally wouldn’t be bad, but Ling Jingsi is clear that not to mention whether Shi Xiaole can do it, even if he can, it will probably take hundreds of years. How many twists and turns would there be in between?
So he doesn’t hold out any hope.
"Nephew, if you meet Brother Shi, don’t tell him my whereabouts, otherwise he will surely come to save me."
Shi Xiaole paused, then without turning his head, he left the depths of the dungeon behind.
Although he had learned much, he had not yet uncovered the mystery of Shi Xuanzhong’s poisoning. Starting from the four of the Emotionless Whip Emperor? It was unrealistic. It seemed there was only one way left.
Shi Xiaole passed through numerous checkpoints and returned to Poison Elimination Peak. He took Yan Yuchai with him in the middle of the night, not forgetting to relay Ling Jingsi’s words to her.
"Did Master really not suffer any persecution?"
"At least his strength remains undiminished, his body unharmed, although even your Master doesn’t know why. With your strength, you definitely can’t rescue him. You better make long-term plans after returning."
Yan Yuchai wept and laughed. She was not a hot-headed person. She quickly found her disguised Senior Brother.
"The Array System protecting the palace has been activated, we can’t escape. Furthermore, considering that Second Junior Brother and Master are deeply trapped here, how can we ignore their safety?"
Said the Senior Brother.
"Swordsman Jin, I just want to ask you, how can you approach the dungeon?"
"This... "
Shi Xiaole knew they had originally planned to lurk here and strike when the time was right; sadly, they had thought too simply. If they hadn’t reached the Void Origin Realm, they could forget about rescuing Ling Jingsi.
Yan Yuchai made a decision and after much persuasion, she finally convinced the Elder Brother.
"You two, follow me."
Shi Xiaole led the way.
The two looked at each other. Although they didn’t understand what he was planning, they had no choice but to follow.
The fierce battle in the sky continued. Clearly Fu Zongming was worried about the other two disciples, so he had not retreated yet.
After the Thousand Ghosts Poison Emperor had extracted the power of the Array System, many weaknesses in the Palace’s protection were exposed. After a few 2-hour periods, under the wide-eyed stares of Yan Yuchai and the Elder Brother, Shi Xiaole found an exit.
"Go!"
The three passed through the Array System and successfully escaped.
Upon receiving the signal, Fu Zongming naturally wouldn’t linger. He partnered with the Nine Unions Martial Emperor for hundreds of moves before they both left.
"You sure ran fast."
The Thousand Ghosts Poison Emperor didn’t pursue them. Relying on the power of the Array System, he could barely withstand the two of them. With a thought, he projected his consciousness into the dungeon. After inquiring about the situation, he finally relaxed.
...
"It seems that to rescue Senior Brother, we must gather at least three Void Origin Realm masters."
Getting a clear picture of the situation from Shi Xiaole, Fu Zongming considered for a moment before finally drawing a conclusion.
"Gathering three people is not difficult. The difficult part is ensuring the other two do not have ulterior motives, otherwise, it might be detrimental to Master."
Yan Yuchai remained calm.
On the other hand, the Elder Brother, thinking of the danger that even Second Junior Brother was in, seemed frantic, wishing to set out on a rescue mission immediately.
Shi Xiaole watched with cold eyes. He did not intend to interfere with Qin Building’s actions and took the initiative to say goodbye.
"Stay, Brother Shi. With your talent, as long as you have the guidance of Martial Uncle, your power will make great progress."
Remembering this young man had saved her and everyone else, and that he was Shi Xuanzhong’s biological son, Yan Yuchai’s voice softened slightly.
Fu Zongming also quickly urged him to stay.
"Thanks for your kindness, but I want to continue to investigate my parents’ clues and gain experience along the way. If Martial Uncle Fu is not bothered in the future, I will come to you with my doubts."
The guidance of a master in the Void Origin Realm was worth countless opportunities, but Shi Xiaole understood that the time was not right. Right now, he had more important things to do.
Fu Zongming laughed: "You are a very determined child, be careful on the road."
To be honest, he did not agree with Yan Yuchai’s idea either. Shi Xiaole was too young. Let’s talk about it after he has decades of experience and his mind is more mature. If he is guided now, it could do more harm than good.
After bidding farewell to the three, Shi Xiaole set off.
In the following year, while cultivating, he went to the places Shi Xuanzhong and his wife had been, trying to follow their trail, but unfortunately, he found nothing. However, his power was steadily improving.
As the sun rose and set, and the stars shifted.
Shi Xiaole stepped foot on many islands and passed through many secret territories. He met many more people. Unconsciously a year had passed quickly.
Boom!
One day, the sea suddenly burst into a dazzling rainbow light that in the blink of an eye covered a large area of the sea. Within the rainbow light, a drifting island slowly emerged, revealing just the tip of the iceberg.
"Look quick, that is... "
"Hahaha, Rainbow Island, the biennial opening has indeed arrived!"
From a distance, many ships were visible. Numerous martial artists ran onto the decks laughing with joy upon seeing the commotion. They were gazing at the spectacle in the distance.
"Although the opening time of Rainbow Island is fixed, its location is elusive. I didn’t expect to be this lucky."
After a while, many silhouettes appeared on the sea, charging towards the rainbow light at breakneck speed.
