The Legend of the Great Desolation: I Am the Fortress

On the quiet Star Island, Lei Zhan walked across the island with a faint smile on his face.

The entire Star Island is only a hundred feet in circumference, but though small, it has all the essential parts.

The pavilions, terraces, and a rather elegant courtyard are decorated with unique carvings, exuding a distinctive charm.

"This island will be where I live for the rest of my life." Lei Zhan looked around and nodded with satisfaction.

The moment Lei Zhan landed on the island, the entire Star Island recognized him as its master, and the entire courtyard and some buildings became a complete cave dwelling.

Lei Zhan walked into the courtyard, found a place to sit down, and with a casual wave of his hand, a golden letter flew out of the house and into Lei Zhan's hand.

This golden scroll contains a wealth of information about the other 400,000+ Star Islands.

It also records the inherited treasures possessed by cultivators on each star island! There are also descriptions of ninety-nine rather precious inheritances.

Naturally, this is also what Lei Zhan wanted to know first.

Lei Zhan held the golden scroll in his hand and slowly flipped through it.

It's only his first day on Star Island, and he can only fight once a day, so he's not in a hurry.

"The number one 'Heart Power Inheritance' was left by the 'Yushang Daojun' within the Twelve Palaces of Mangya Kingdom. Heart Power Inheritance is already quite precious, and this Yushang Daojun is a heaven-defying Daojun comparable to the Eternal Emperor."

Lei smiled and said, "Judging from this introduction, the legacy left by this 'Yushang Daojun' seems to be much more powerful than what I obtained in the core world of the Endless Ice Sea."

This Feathered Robe Dao Lord was once the most powerful Dao Lord in the Endless Territory!
After failing to achieve Dao integration, he killed an Eternal Emperor before his death and the dissipation of his Dao...

Although he cannot compare with a monstrous Dao Lord like Ruosang Dao Lord, he is still much stronger than the Myriad Gods Dao Lord, making him a truly heaven-defying Dao Lord in the first tier of the endless territory.

"It's not much different from what I expected. This number one inheritance is scattered across 3,600 inheritance treasures, and now they are all in the hands of Betalieu."

Lei Zhan shook his head and smiled. Betalieu was currently the only cultivator at the sixth level.

Unless Betalieu himself is willing, or a cultivator advances to the sixth level, according to the rules, no one can fight him.

Lei Zhan then looked at the second-ranked inheritance information, which was also the inheritance that Lei Zhan himself was most concerned about.

Furthermore, whether Lei Zhan can become the personal disciple of the Mangya Overlord ultimately depends on this lineage.

"Huh? There are a total of 1,800 inherited treasures, and no one can collect them all?" Lei Zhan was stunned after reading it.

The time-space legacy left by the Mangya Overlord on Star Island, though only the first volume, is still very precious.

Lei Zhan had already obtained a copy of the Eternal Emperor's temporal inheritance from the ruins left by Daoist Ruosang.

The second primordial spirit also obtained a Dominator-level escape technique within the Nanfeng Sect ruins, but it has never had the opportunity to inherit the Dominator's own legacy.

"The spacetime legacy left by the Overlord on this Star Island..." Lei Zhan pondered for a moment. The 1,800 legacies are now held by cultivators on the fourth and fifth levels of Star Island.

Lei Xian has only just arrived on Star Island and is currently on the first level, the lowest level, but he wants to fight against cultivators from the fourth and fifth levels...

"Unless someone challenges me, it will take at least a month to reach the fourth level," Lei Zhan thought to himself, pondering the rules of Star Island.

As for whether he could obtain the inheritance of the second-ranked ruler, Lei Zhan was never worried. With his strength, coming to Star Island was like a tiger accidentally entering a sheep pen, a completely different level of strength crushing him.

Wow wow wow~~~~
Just as Lei Zhan was still flipping through the golden scroll in his hand, he saw light flashing on the scroll more than ten times in a row, each flash coming from a different cultivator.

"A challenge to a duel? You've come at just the right time." A glint appeared in Lei Zhan's eyes. It's like someone bringing you a pillow when you're sleepy.

"Among these dozen or so challenge messages, thirteen cultivators from the first level have challenged me. Three from the second level and one from the third level have also challenged me..."

"Huh? There's one on the fourth floor too?"

Lei Zhan browsed through the challenge messages that kept appearing one after another, and a faint smile suddenly appeared on his face. His gaze fell on the golden scroll in his hand, and his expression was inscrutable.

"Eighteen people challenged me to a duel, so... you're the one."

……

"Are there new people here again?"

"So many at once!"

"They were all plundered from the endless territories, so there should be quite a few treasures!"

"Hurry! Challenge them! If we're too late, the treasure will be taken by someone else, and that won't be worth it!"

When nearly 40,000 floating islands appeared in the air below, they were noticed by the cultivators who were already on Star Island, and their eyes lit up.

Fresh blood means a large number of treasures, magical artifacts, and chaotic spiritual liquid.

No one ever thinks they have too many treasures and magical artifacts, not only on Star Island, but even if they leave Star Island in the future to live in Mangya Kingdom, they will still need a lot of treasures.

"We need to hurry and grab these newcomers."

"A challenge."

"A challenge."

Many of the stronger beings in the World Realm were tempted. The weaker ones had already been exploited, some even losing their magic weapons and having nothing left.

Some of them stood on their own star islands, gazing into the distance, while others gleaned simple information through golden scrolls.

The golden scrolls usually contain detailed information about the cultivators on each star island, as well as information about their inherited treasures.

Most importantly, you can only challenge someone once a day, so it's first come, first served.

……

"Huh? They actually agreed!" On the fourth floor of Star Island, a gray-robed man with a hooked nose showed a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"They've got some nerve! They've barely arrived on Star Island and already dared to accept a challenge from the fourth level! These newcomers these days..."

In Mangya Kingdom, life goes on the same way, and treasures are still needed. Although he is on the fourth level, his strength is already quite good within the entire Star Island, but there are even more powerful beings above the fourth level.

Even someone as powerful as him couldn't avoid having his magical treasures stolen by someone even stronger.

Naturally, even he had to start arranging battles immediately and needed handy magical artifacts! This naturally led to the exploitation of the newcomers.

“I sent out nearly a hundred invitations, but only this one person dared to accept the challenge at the first level.”

A slight smile appeared on the face of the hook-nosed man in the gray robe.

"Interesting! Interesting!"

"Then... I'll teach you a lesson!"

Wow.

The man in the gray robe took a step and went straight into a room.

Inside this room, there are numerous divine runes on the floor and walls. Anyone inside the room is within this array of divine runes.

In an instant, a large number of divine runes lit up.

“Buzz~~~”

The space rippled, and the gray-robed man standing in the center vanished into thin air.

……

On the desolate island, a dim yellow light shone through the air, with swirling yellow sand making the entire island appear desolate.

Wow~~~
Space is distorted.

Lei Zhan appeared on this isolated island, looking around.

Before them was a sky full of flying yellow sand, but once the sand got close to the area around the fortress, it seemed to be blocked by an invisible barrier. The sand, which was almost everywhere, could not get close to the fortress at all.

"It looks really desolate." Lei Zhan glanced at it, shook his head, and a jade-colored wine pot appeared in his hand. He leisurely drank the wine.

"It is indeed quite desolate, but that also shows that you are not very lucky." A voice rang out.

Wow.

A spatial teleportation followed, and a cultivator with a hooked nose and wearing a gray robe emerged from the swirling yellow sand.

"They're here?" Lei Zhan looked over.

"Hmm? You actually have the leisure to drink?" The hook-nosed cultivator was taken aback, his slightly sinister eyes staring at Lei Zhan. "You dare to challenge me, a cultivator at the fourth level, as soon as you arrive at Star Island, and you're so relaxed. It seems you're very confident in your strength."

"Confidence? I guess a little!" Lei Zhan smiled faintly.

"Is it his own strength? Or a magic weapon or treasure?" The hook-nosed man in the gray robe's eyes lit up immediately.

Those who dare to accept challenges and are confident in their abilities are generally quite strong, and those who are strong usually possess a lot of treasures.

This was also one of the reasons why he chose to challenge the new cultivators on the first level.

Of course, most importantly, the weaker cultivators on the third and fourth levels had their treasures looted.

Those with greater strength who want to plunder all of their opponent's treasures may easily provoke the opponent to fight desperately. If they are injured or their strength is greatly reduced, it would undoubtedly be very dangerous on Star Island, where the competition is extremely fierce.

Lei Zhan glanced at the gray-robed man who had become somewhat excited and nodded, saying, "I do indeed have some treasures here."

"Hahaha! It's good that you have treasures!" A sinister smile appeared on the gray-robed man's face. "Hand over all your treasures quickly, and I will spare your life."

"Hand over all my treasures?" Lei Zhan laughed. "Are you sure? The last person who said that was instantly annihilated into nothingness by me."

"Hmph! Don't compare me to the trash you've killed."

The gray-robed man's aura suddenly surged, and he revealed six arms, each gripping a black hook.

"Useless?" Lei Zhan was taken aback. Dragon God Dao Lord's strength was indeed average among the three-step Dao Lords, but the title of 'useless'...

"Boy, die!" The gray-robed man was filled with a cold killing intent, and the six hooks in his hands transformed into six streams of light. In an instant, lightning flashed, and terrifying thunder carried an endless aura of destruction.

"He's courting death." Lei Zhan shook his head, pointing at the gray-robed man who was rapidly approaching.

Wow~~~
A large amount of chaotic power condensed and instantly transformed into a hand a hundred feet in size, which directly crushed down on the gray-robed man holding the hook.

"Huh? What?" The gray-robed man sensed the terrifying power and his expression changed immediately. At the same time, he swung his six hooks directly at the giant hand.

Boom boom boom! ! !
The palm, hundreds of feet in size, resembled a dark cloud, exuding overwhelming power.

"Do not--"

Lei Zhan's strength is extraordinary. Even a Dragon God Dao Lord at the third-step Dao Lord level could fight him head-on for a long time, let alone a World God.

Without giving the gray-robed man a chance to react, in just a moment, they completely annihilated him like dry leaves being cut down.
