Because of the rising coastline. Yantai has also been greatly affected. Penglai has even become an isolated island overseas. "Young man, do you want to go to Penglai Island?" An old man asked when he saw Wang Yuxuan staring at Penglai Island shrouded in white mist. "Yes, I heard that there are immortal legends on Penglai Island, and I want to go and check it out." Wang Yuxuan said. "Hey, there is no such thing as immortal legends. Those are all lies for children. Listen to what the old man said. Don't go there. That place is very weird." The old man sighed. "What do you mean?" Wang Yuxuan asked with interest. "That place is a place where people are eaten without leaving any bones. About 20 or 30 years ago, an expert said that there are all kinds of exotic flowers and fruits growing on Penglai Island, which can prolong people's lifespan and break through their cultivation level." "For a while, Penglai Island became a permanent place for hunters." "It was okay at the beginning. Some hunters actually brought out some rare flowers and plants, but later on..." the old man suddenly sighed.
"What happened later?" Wang Yuxuan asked hurriedly. "Later, that Penglai Island seemed to be occupied by a demon. No matter how many people entered, they disappeared. Without exception, no one could go in and walk out. Even my stupid son never came out." There was grief in the old man's eyes. "Uncle, are you saying that Penglai Island was not like this at the beginning?" Wang Yuxuan asked, pointing at the Penglai Island shrouded in white mist. “Yes, the fog on Penglai Island was not so thick at the beginning. You could still see the whole picture of the island from time to time. It became like this after a large number of hunters entered the island to hunt for treasure.” The old man nodded and said. "So that's how it is. I understand. Thank you, old man." Wang Yuxuan said. "Young man, remember don't get close, even if it's just the outskirts. Some time ago, someone saw a few sirens approaching Penglai Island, but they died on the sea not long after." The old man warned. "Okay, I understand." Wang Yuxuan nodded. …… After the old man left, Wang Yuxuan said solemnly: "It was fine at first, but it became like this after more people came. Could it be that this Penglai Island originally sealed something, and it was accidentally unlocked by later people and turned into this?" "It should be. After all, when it comes to interests, humans will always take risks. What? Do you still want to go and take a look?" The figure of Gardevoir emerged from Wang Yuxuan's shadow. "Go, why not? No matter how bad things get, we can still be resurrected, right?" Wang Yuxuan said. During these few months, I didn't get any new items, but I did get two resurrection coins, as well as training resources such as the Fire Stone and the Thunder Stone. …… Wang Yuxuan and Gardevoir arrived near Penglai Island from the air. The white fog here was so thick that the outline of the island could not be seen. "Yuxuan, there seem to be bugs in the fog." Gardevoir said with a frown. "Bugs?" Wang Yuxuan was stunned for a moment when he heard that, then he used his mental power to scan the area, but did not find the bugs that Gardevoir mentioned. "My mental power can't scan it out. I can feel the emotions of the bugs. There are so many of them. There are hundreds of millions of bugs in front of us alone. They only have one emotion, which is to devour us." Gardevoir said. Upon hearing this, Wang Yuxuan switched to Gardevoir's skill tree, and suddenly a wave of malice rushed towards him like a huge wave.
"Hiss, it's impossible to detect it with mental power. No wonder no one has discovered this for so many years. Fortunately, these insects seem unable to escape from the white fog, otherwise Yantai would probably become a Jedi." Wang Yuxuan took a breath. Knowing the problem, it is not difficult to solve it. Wang Yuxuan directly called out Yan Ji, and the Fierce Cloud Fire covered it. Although the fog insects on Penglai Island were very strange, insects were still insects, and the Fierce Cloud Fire had a special attack against insects. A raging fire burst out from Yan Ji's mouth, accompanied by a sizzling sound and a smell of burnt insects. The white mist in front of her was like being bitten off, and suddenly a large open space appeared. "Let's go! To the island!" …… The island was also shrouded in white fog, but compared to the white fog that had just enveloped the periphery of Penglai Island, the fog here was much lighter, with visibility reaching at least three meters. However, those fog insects still filled the area around Wang Yuxuan. If it weren't for Yan Ji's Fiery Fire, these fog insects would probably swarm over and devour Wang Yuxuan, Gardevoir, and Yan Ji in an instant. Along the way, Wang Yuxuan saw some worn-out clothes and backpacks, but no skeletons. He thought that the fog worm must be a terrible creature that devours even bones. According to the old man, there were many animals and monsters living on Penglai Island. However, along the way, there was nothing but deathly silence. It seemed that all the living creatures here were devoured by the endless fog insects, without even a trace left. Until Wang Yuxuan walked into a valley, there was a towering tree that had been growing for who knows how many years. Its shape was very similar to the Fusang tree in the Classic of Mountains and Seas. In front of this tree, there are several dilapidated altars, one of which has several shovels stuck around it. "These fog insects come out from this altar." said Gardevoir. "Greed." Wang Yuxuan shook his head. Wang Yuxuan did not go to see the dug-up altar, but walked straight towards the hibiscus tree. Strangely enough, there was no fog within a hundred meters of the hibiscus tree. It seemed that the fog insects were afraid of this unintelligent hibiscus tree. When he came under the tree, there were several stone tablets. Wang Yuxuan did not recognize the words on the tablets, but the patterns and marks on the tablets were extremely familiar. Isn’t this a similar pattern to the one on the Eye of Time and Space and the Eye of Vastness? And I also saw a totem mark related to the Moon Moth Phoenix or the Holy Feather Vermillion Bird. "Could the Fusang tree be the three-legged golden crow?" Wang Yuxuan guessed. "Yuxuan, there is a hole over here, and there seems to be a wood carving inside." Gardevoir transmitted the message from a hundred meters above the Fuso tree. "Come here!" …… Wang Yuxuan came to the cave that Gardevoir mentioned. It was filled with various wood carvings and murals, and they were all extremely clear, as if they were newly carved. The story here is almost consistent with Wang Yuxuan's previous guess. There once lived a three-legged golden crow here, and there was also a tribe that worshipped the three-legged golden crow as a god. This tribe thrived under the protection of the three-legged golden crow and soon became a large tribe, also taming several exotic beasts. But the good times did not last long. Not long after, something unexpected happened. The three-legged golden crow left Penglai. When it came back again, its body was covered with wounds. Not long after, it fell from the Fusang tree. Without the protection of the Three-legged Golden Crow, the tribe living in Penglai quickly declined. In just a hundred years, it went from a large tribe with tens of thousands of people to a small tribe with only a few hundred people. In order to survive, this tribe, which was once the Jinwu tribe, left Penglai and integrated into other tribes. The three altars in front of the Fusang tree are where the powerful enemies who were defeated by the three-legged golden crow are stored.
Among them, the fog insects released were the descendants of a species called the Sun-Eating Insect, which once swept across the nine provinces of China and devoured several ancient totems. It was finally killed by the sun flames of the Three-legged Golden Crow. In order to commend the achievements of the Three-legged Golden Crow, the people of the Golden Crow tribe took the eggs of the Sun-Eating Insect and placed them in the altar. After the baptism of time, the once invincible sun-eating insect degenerated into a weak fog insect that can only survive in the fog to avoid the sun, but still inherited the killing instinct of the sun-eating insect.
