Seeing the divine turtle kill the demon beast and even bring the beast core to him, Jared was overjoyed. He never
expected the divine turtle would be so formidable within the Night Sea. I didn’t realize this when I first tamed it
either!
“Mr. Chance, the divine turtle you tamed is so impressive. That demon beast earlier seemed quite strong, yet your
divine turtle killed it and even fetched its beast core for you,” Cloud said with evident envy upon witnessing that
scene.
“I didn’t expect this divine turtle to be this powerful either!” Jared happily retrieved the beast core from the turtle’s
mouth.
Then, he fetched some spiritual plants from his Storage Ring to feed the divine turtle, which responded with a
satisfied roar. Subsequently, Jared and the other two rode on the divine turtle, heading straight for the island.

sunk.
Moreover, among the debris floated over at dozen corpses, which made for a haunting. sight. Upon seeing that,
Cloud turned pale, and his eyes were filled with distress.
He was afraid that was the spirit ship his father had been on, and one of those floating bodies might be his father.
Sensing Cloud’s worry, Jared comforted him, “There are many who travel by spirit ships across the Night Sea.
Besides, many spirit ships pass through here, so this might not necessarily be your father’s. We can inspect those
bodies to see if any members from Stellaris Sect are among them.”
Once Cloud nodded in agreement, Jared directed the divine turtle toward the floating debris. After they got closer
to one of the dead bodies, Cloud began examining it.
Because the corpses were bloated from soaking in the seawater, identifying them proved challenging.
Nevertheless, Cloud still managed to confirm their identities through the clothes and accessories.
“This is a disciple from Stellaris Sect. Their clothing and the unique bracelets on their wrists are distinctive to our
sect,” Cloud uttered in a shaky voice.
“Let’s not jump to conclusions yet. We should check all the bodies first to see if your father is among them. If he
isn’t, that means he might’ve survived. We’re close to the island now. Even if they suffered a shipwreck here,
there’s a chance they could’ve escaped to the island,” Jared consoled Cloud, quelling his agitation.
Subsequently, they started inspecting each body and found that all the corpses were indeed members of Stellaris
Sect. This confirmed that the sunken spirit ship was undoubtedly the one their sect had ridden on. Thankfully,
Cloud’s father wasn’t among them, giving Cloud a glimmer of hope.
“Let’s get to the island first,” Jared suggested, breathing a sigh of relief upon verifying none of the dead bodies was
Cloud’s father and deciding to check out the situation on the island.

Soon, the divine turtle brought them to the island’s edge. However, it refused to move any closer, as if something
on the island frightened it. Jared and the others had no choice but to leap. from the turtle’s back onto the island.
With a pleasant surprise, he quickly noticed that the peculiar gravitational force present in the Night Sea didn’t exist
on the island, allowing them to move through the air freely.
“Wait for us here, and don’t wander off,” Jared instructed the divine turtle, which bobbed its head in
acknowledgment.
“Jared, look!” Quinley suddenly called out, pointing to a part of the island’s beach not far away. They all hurried
over and saw a series of footprints on the ground. Although some were partially covered with sand, they were still
distinctly visible.
“It seems someone landed on this island a few days ago. It might’ve been your father and his party!” Jared
remarked after examining the footprints. A relieved expression finally spread across Cloud’s face after he heard
that..
