C1406 Fulfillment

0Then, an old man in a gray robe slowly walked out from behind a huge rock and appeared in front of Zhou Yan.

"Thank you, senior, for your help. This junior is extremely grateful."

Zhou Yan immediately bowed deeply to the old man and said respectfully.

Although the fees on the Black Demon Island were very high, no one on the island dared to cause trouble.

This was because countless experts from the Ten Thousand Sword Sect were gathered here.

Even if some people were greedy, they would have to think about whether they could withstand the anger of the entire Ten Thousand Sword Clan.

More importantly, the Black Demon Island was backed by the Black Demon Sea, and every year, many powerful Demonic Beasts would be sent to other areas of the Black Demon Sea for the disciples of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect to train.

Therefore, even though the fees on the Black Demon Island were expensive, it still attracted many martial artists.

After all, besides the Black Demon Island Lord, the other experts on Black Demon Island weren't too harsh.

"There's no need to be polite. What is your name?"

The elder smiled and shook his head, "My name is Zhao San. What about you?"

"Junior is Zhou Yan!"

Zhou Yan cupped his hands and replied.

Zhao San nodded and continued to ask: "Zhou Yan, you just arrived at the Black Demon Island, right?"

"En! This junior has just arrived here!" Zhou Yan nodded and said.

"Hehe, in that case, let me introduce you to the Black Demon Island." Zhao San nodded slightly.

"There are twelve mountains on the Black Demon Island. There are some weaker elders living in these twelve mountains. My Black Demon Sect is the strongest among the twelve forces on the Black Demon Island."

Hearing this, Zhou Yan's expression immediately became serious.

He knew that the Ten Thousand Sword Sect was the number one force in the Eastern Continent.

As for the Black Demon Sect, it was one of the twelve super forces in the Eastern Continent, on par with the Ten Thousand Sword Sect.

From this, one could see that there were probably Sacred Sovereigns guarding the Black Demon Island.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yan couldn't help but shiver.

"Zhou Yan, you don't have to be nervous. Although there are experts at the Saint Sovereign Realm guarding my Black Demon Island, they usually stay in their respective cultivation grounds."

Zhao San seemed to have read Zhou Yan's mind and immediately comforted him: "Therefore, I don't really manage the Black Demon Island. Basically, I'm in charge of managing it."

"Oh, so that's how it is!"

Zhou Yan suddenly came to a realization.

No wonder Zhao San had a smile on his face.

It turned out to be a butler.

No wonder he could control the entire Black Demon Island and let the disciples of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect go there for free.

"Oh right, Old Zhao, do you usually recruit disciples on the Black Demon Island?" Zhou Yan asked tentatively.

"Of course!"

Zhao San smiled: "Our Black Demon Island is the largest merchant union in the Eastern Continent. We manage countless resources and wealth every day, and we also need a large number of disciples."

"Forces like the Ten Thousand Sword Clan and the Black Demon Sect usually choose to recruit disciples to increase the strength of their sects."

"So that's how it is...."

Zhou Yan nodded thoughtfully.

He finally understood why the rules of the Black Demon Island were so strict that they even allowed the disciples of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect to participate in the test.

"That's right, Old Zhao, according to what I know, the disciples of the Ten Thousand Sword Clan come to the Black Demon Island every half a year to take the test, right?"

Zhou Yan suddenly asked.

According to the tradition of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect, every half a year, the disciples of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect would come to the Black Demon Island to hold a trial. Those who passed would receive generous rewards.

It was even possible for some disciples to break through to the Xiantian realm.

Therefore, every half a year, the disciples of the Ten Thousand Sword Clan would come to the Black Demon Island for a trial.

Furthermore, the Ten Thousand Sword Clan would give out extremely good treasures as rewards.

Therefore, the disciples of the Ten Thousand Sword Clan were all looking forward to this trial.

"That's right, the Ten Thousand Sword Clan does have this tradition. They come to the Black Demon Island every half a year."

Zhao San nodded his head and said: "Not only that, every disciple of the Ten Thousand Sword Clan is a genius. If you can pass this test, you'll definitely have the chance to reach the Sacred Sovereign Realm in the future."

"Really?"

Zhou Yan's eyes lit up.

He had long coveted the Holy Sovereign of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect.

However, it was far too difficult to step into the realm of the Sacred Sovereign.

Even with the help of the pill, it was still impractical.

Now, if he could advance a pill or increase his cultivation by a little, he would be a step closer to the Saint Sovereign realm.

"Hahaha, of course it's true. How could I lie to you?" Zhao San said with a faint smile.

After that, he pondered for a moment before continuing, "Oh right, Zhou Yan, since you came to the Black Demon Island to participate in the trial, you should have some understanding of my Black Demon Island, right?"

"Yes."

Zhou Yan nodded and said: "It is said that the Island Master of the Black Demon Island is a Holy Sovereign expert, and that there is a secret Spirit Vein in the Black Demon Island!"

"That's right!"

Zhao San nodded his head in satisfaction and said: "The Spirit Vein on the Black Demon Island was personally set up by the ancestor of the Black Demon Sect a thousand years ago. This Spirit Vein gathers the essence of the spiritual energy within a hundred miles, and is extremely helpful for cultivation."

"Not only that, the quality of this Spirit Vein has also reached the highest level. Unfortunately, a Spirit Vein of this level is simply too rare!"

As he spoke, Zhao San sighed softly, feeling somewhat regretful.

"Oh?"

Zhou Yan asked curiously: "Old Zhao, what level is this Spirit Vein?"

"This Spirit Vein has appeared twice in the history of my Black Demon Island. The first time was a thousand years ago, when my ancestor of the Black Demon Sect accidentally discovered it and led everyone to occupy this Spirit Vein!"

"However, even with this Spirit Vein, my ancestor of the Black Demon Sect is still unable to develop it."

"Therefore, this Spirit Vein has always been in its current state, without the slightest bit of improvement!"

Zhao San shook his head, and his tone was also filled with regret.

After all, once they had this Spirit Vein, it meant that the Black Demon Sect had the hope of advancing to the Saint Sovereign Realm.

However, the Black Demon Island was a dead end.

"Then, what about the second Spirit Vein?"

Zhou Yan's eyes flickered as he asked: "Could it be that at that time, the experts from the Ten Thousand Sword Sect had already captured this Black Demon Island?"

"Of course not!"

Zhao San shook his head and said: "At that time, our ancestor of the Black Demon Sect was travelling outside and was chased by enemies, causing him to be heavily injured."

"Luckily, the Black Demon Island Lord saved him or else he wouldn't be alive today."

"After he recovered from his injuries, he decided to repay the favor and left this Spirit Vein behind!"

"He used up all of his savings to obtain this Spirit Vein from a Secret Realm!"

Zhao San slowly said: "Unfortunately, a thousand years have passed, and my Black Demon Sect has not been able to give birth to another Holy Sovereign expert..."

"So that's how it is!"
