Chapter 435

Treasure Island was a very peculiar existence in the Cosmic Sea.

Although it had the word "island" in its name, Treasure Island was actually a very large continent, comparable to a small star sector.

Treasure Island was in the form of a continent, not a planet. It floated in the Cosmic Sea, and there was only one in the entire Human Cosmic Sea. What was even more peculiar was that its position never followed the orbit of any other celestial bodies. Even if it floated past a giant black hole, the black hole seemed to ignore it. It was like a naughty child in the Cosmic Sea, going wherever it wanted to go, and no one could control it. The most peculiar thing was that this island also had nine huge super stars that revolved around it. This allowed this continent to have day and night on time every day, and it was suitable for human survival.

To describe it in a less pleasant way, it was a "weirdo" in the Cosmic Sea.

Because it was a weirdo, there were many legends about it, and there were also many theories about its origin. One of the most widely circulated theories was "The Theory of Plate Collapse in Ancient Times."

Legend had it that in ancient times, the Cosmic Sea was not a sea at all, but an entire continent. Later, due to some reason, the continent shattered and disintegrated, turning into countless pieces of gravel and turning into stars, which later formed the Cosmic Sea. Treasure Island, on the other hand, was a relatively large piece of gravel, so it was preserved.

This theory, in fact, was not very tenable from a scientific point of view. The flavor of a myth was too strong.

The most convincing theory was "The Theory of Objects from the Higher Dimension."

The idea of this theory was that this continent came from a higher dimension and appeared in the Cosmic Sea from a space-time rift due to various coincidences. This theory actually explained to some extent why this continent was not bound by any physical laws of the Cosmic Sea, because it was very likely that it itself carried other laws from another dimension. As for why the unknown higher dimension would have such a celestial form, it might also be due to the laws.

After all, our mooncakes were round, but it did not mean that mooncakes from other dimensions could not be made into cubes. Our celestial bodies were spherical, but we could not expect other dimensions to be spherical like ours. Wasn't this the same logic?

Moreover, scientists could not refute this theory. No one knew what the physical laws of other dimensions were like. Therefore, the acceptance of this theory was the highest.

In fact, the Treasure Island had existed for a very long time. Almost since the beginning of the records in ancient times, the name of this continent would appear in various documents from time to time. This was because its existence was too special.

"Neptune, do you know how Treasure Island came to be?" Gu Ding could not help but ask as he looked at the huge continent outside the spaceship.

"I don't have enough authority, so I don't know the real situation. However, I personally believe that the theory of 'Objects from the Higher Planes' is the most reliable theory." Even the Ocean Emperor admitted that he did not know the origin of this continent.

"I also have a question. Won't this continent be damaged if it encounters any super black holes, super stars, or other extremely dangerous celestial bodies?" The one who asked this question was Mi Ke Ke. He had not found much information about Treasure Island on the Skynet. Most of the information was hearsay, so he had some doubts.

"No, this continent is very special. It has a very special repulsive force that can push away all dangerous celestial bodies in advance. This repulsive force is like an independent rule that works on all celestial bodies in the cosmic sea, including black holes. Therefore, even black holes can't devour it and will only be pushed away. "

"Sounds like fun." Gu Ding grinned.

"There are many powerhouses living in seclusion on Treasure Island, and there are also all kinds of demon powerhouses. Gu Ding, you have to be careful. There will probably be a lot of demigod demon powerhouses who will challenge you, "Neptune continued. "Since two weeks ago, when you jumped from second place to first place on the Demigod Demon Ranking and pushed that guy Futu down, countless people on the Skynet have been clamoring to challenge you."

"You can't blame me for this, can you? I inexplicably jumped to first place and suddenly became the target of public criticism. "Gu Ding was a little speechless about this. He had been sitting well in second place. As a result, the last time he cultivated the Asura Armageddon, the second day after he came out of Robert's domain, the Demigod Monster List was updated. His and Futu's names impressively swapped places, jumping from second to first.

As soon as the ranking came out, countless demon powerhouses clamored to challenge Gu Ding on Skynet, but Gu Ding chose to ignore them.

Lilliath and the others even criticized him by name. "Gu Ding, can you keep a low profile?!"

Many people on the Skynet also raised doubts about Star Pavilion.

"Gu Ding clearly didn't do anything. How did he suddenly jump from second place to first place?!"

"That's right. Star Pavilion even boasted that their ranking is the fairest. Gu Ding's crew occupied four names in the top ten. It's obvious that they spent money to buy the ranking. Now it's even more obvious. They even took first place. How shameless can they be?! "

"Futu just successfully escaped from a TOP2 siege some time ago. That's a TOP2. There were nine people involved in the roundup, and each of them had a cultivation level of at least Three-star Medium Deity and combat effectiveness of at least Two-star Higher Deity. Moreover, they were led by two regular members whose combat effectiveness was comparable to that of a Four-star Higher Deity. Why is Gu Ding ranked ahead of Futu?

Gu Ding only smiled at these comments. However, Gu Ding had been paying attention to news about Futu during this time. The guy was really strong and had the strength to cross nearly three ranks. Gu Ding himself had only surpassed him after cultivating Shura Armageddon. This made Gu Ding a little curious as to how Futu had cultivated it.

Of course, Gu Ding also told Lilliath and the others about the Shura Armageddon and asked them to work hard to meet the cultivation requirements as soon as possible.

Biggie had only not met the requirements for physical strength. Elsa's martial arts concept was only at the beginner level and had not reached the beginner level. Dockett's martial arts concept was even more so. Lilliath lacked more. Her physical strength, God Source strength, and martial arts concept had not met the requirements.

Therefore, everyone had been cultivating diligently for the past two weeks.

The one who had made the most progress was Miko. He had reached Rank-10 Gene Body and his combat effectiveness was comparable to a demigod.

In fact, for those with extraordinary talent, the biggest obstacle to cultivation was resources. One was resources such as cultivation techniques, and the other was resources such as medicine and energy.

The reason Gu Ding was able to rise in such a short period of time was that he was limited in terms of resources before he left Cerule. When this restriction was lifted, his strength was almost unstoppable. The same was true for Biggie and the others. As for Lilliath, she had enough resources, but she had never put her mind on cultivation until her parents' accident. She slowly began to cultivate seriously.

…

Amid everyone's teasing, Neptune controlled the spaceship to land steadily at a port on Treasure Island.

Treasure Island was huge and had a total of thirty-six interstellar ports. It was the largest number of ports on a single planet and ranked first in the human Cosmic Sea.

When the spaceship landed, Gu Ding and the others were guided by Neptune to find a well-reputed hotel to stay in.

They had used ultra-long-distance Space Shuttle many times on their journey this time. It could be said that the journey had saved them more than a month. Therefore, Gu Ding's idea was to rest for two or three days on this strange mainland and give everyone a break.

Due to its uniqueness, Treasure Island often drifted in the Cosmic Sea. Whether it was shallow waters, deep waters, or underwater restricted areas, it had explored them all. Therefore, many powerhouses chose to live in seclusion here, including powerhouses from deep waters and even underwater restricted areas.

"There are really a lot of powerhouses on this island. There are more than twenty people who have broken through the God Barrier, and the strongest person has even broken through five barriers. Try to keep a low profile and don't cause trouble, "Neptune reminded everyone in their ears. "Fighting is prohibited on this mainland. If there's any conflict, settle it in the ring. If a private fight is discovered, you'll be sent to prison. To some extent, this can be considered the safest place in the entire Cosmic Sea. "

"Is this also managed by the Federal Government?" Gu Ding was a little surprised.

"No, this mainland is jointly managed by various human forces. However, they use part of the Federal Government's management model. After all, their management model is more mature," Neptune explained. "Many of the buildings were donated by various large forces or powerful individuals, such as interstellar ports, hospitals, prisons …"

"If that's the case, the Federal Government can't arrest people here?" Lilliath asked curiously.

"You could say that if the Federal Government wants to arrest someone, they have to write an arrest request and list the crimes of the person being arrested. After verification and evaluation by the relevant authorities here, they decide whether to accept the application or not. If the application is accepted, the arrest will not be done by the Federal Government. Instead, the local authorities will organize an arrest team to carry out the arrest. In fact, as long as it's not a crime against humanity, the arrest request will basically be rejected. Therefore, people from the Federal Government generally won't take the initiative to come here, "Neptune continued. Neptune continued, "This is also the main reason why I chose this place as my landing point."

"Safety is indeed very important. I heard you say that the trade here is also very developed?" Gu Ding was more concerned about this issue. He hoped to improve his strength as soon as possible.

"That's right. There are three huge trading markets on this mainland, all supported by large consortiums. More than ninety percent of the things in the human Cosmic Sea can be obtained through trading here! "

"Let's go to the trading market and see if we can get anything good this time." For Gu Ding and the others, such a large trading market was indeed a good place to pick up leftovers.
