Chapter 945: Chapter 5: Second Assessment

After meeting Luo Yi, Ye Lingyue finally had a familiar face on the ship.

Luo Yi also learned that Ye Lingyue came with her "younger brother."

She told Ye Lingyue that she also had a three or four-year-old brother back home. The two chatted happily and, before they knew it, the ship had sailed deep into the sea.

The journey to the Lonely Moon Sea was much longer than either Ye Lingyue or Luo Yi had imagined.

From dusk till dawn, and then to noon, the ship traversed the choppy sea for two whole days and nights.

During these two days and nights, the ship only provided the most limited amount of fresh water and hard-as-rock dry food.

Luckily, the disciples responsible for the transport, seeing Little Di Shen so young, gave Ye Lingyue some extra goat’s milk.

The blue sea disappeared, and the water turned inky.

Luo Yi, who had experience going to sea with her father, told Ye Lingyue that the black waters indicated great depth, and that formidable sea beasts likely lived beneath.

The distant coastline was completely gone, and ahead was a mist that lingered for years.

In the mist, a vague silhouette appeared, resembling a ridge stretching across the middle of the sea.

This sea area was vast, and the sudden emergence of such a sea ridge, especially at night, gave off a ghostly aura that made one’s bones shiver.

"Disembark, one by one, no rushing, onto Galaxy Creek."

A male disciple of the Lonely Moon Sea commanded from the ship’s bow.

With that, the other disciples began roughly driving the initial selection participants.

Ye Lingyue and Luo Yi were startled.

Getting off here, where there wasn’t any island ahead, let alone a shadow of the Lonely Moon Sea.

But no one dared defy the orders of those senior brothers and sisters, so they had no choice but to disembark into the knife-like sea wind and head toward the sea ridge.

Based on Ye Lingyue’s experience, the sea winds around this ridge were unusual.

This seemed to be a gang wind, and under such oceanic gang winds, it was hard to gather primordial power; most disciples on the ridge were now no different from ordinary people.

In the darkness, the sea ridge, silhouetted against the moonlight, looked like a ferocious sea beast crouching by the sea.

The sea ridge was much taller than anyone had imagined, reaching five or six hundred meters high.

On the ridge, not a blade of grass grew; the rocks, constantly washed by seawater, were covered with a frost-like layer of sea salt.

The entire sea ridge was about a mile long, appearing desolate and lifeless. Who knows why someone named it "Galaxy Creek."

Upon reaching the highest point of the ridge, everyone heard the roaring sound of waves.

Looking down, they all gasped and finally understood why this sea ridge was named Galaxy Creek.

Because below the creek was a deep sea trench, over two people wide, with an unfathomable depth.

Mother Nature is truly marvelous; this trench, like an oceanic rift, seemed to have been cleaved by a giant axe from above.

Wolfish and tiger-like waters rushed fiercely into the eerie trench, producing a lion-like roar.

Forget about humans; even large ocean-going vessels would be instantly shredded upon encountering such a trench.

"Listen up, this Galaxy Creek before you is your second assessment target. Only those who jump into Galaxy Creek and survive can pass the second selection."

What was even harder for everyone to accept lay ahead.

The words of the escort disciples from the Lonely Moon Sea were a harsh wake-up call for everyone, leaving them stunned.

Jump down from here? What a joke!

Not to mention that the depth of the Galaxy Creek is unmeasured, just the sea ridge alone is five or six hundred meters high. If one had primordial power for protection, at most, they’d suffer minor injuries.

But due to the oceanic gang wind now, most primordial power couldn’t gather.

This was like being asked to jump down without any defenses; it would be surprising if one didn’t get shattered to pieces.

Everyone hesitated.

After all, they were just twelve or thirteen-year-old girls and boys, the youngest only seven or eight. Facing such a treacherous landscape, their faces all changed.

But if they didn’t jump, the ship that brought them had already left, and they couldn’t stay on the ridge indefinitely.

"What should we do?" Luo Yi’s face was also pale.

"Wait and see." Ye Lingyue glanced back at Little Di Shen lying in the bamboo basket behind them. The little guy was sleeping unfaithfully, unaware of anything that was going on.

Men are indeed unreliable.

Ye Lingyue cursed inwardly.

"This is insane, what bullshit Lonely Moon Sea. You’re clearly trying to get us killed. I’m opting out."

At this point, a very handsome boy stepped out.

His heart throbbing, he glanced at Galaxy Creek, and without another word, he took out a spiritual artifact.

It was a peach wood sword, unlike typical peach wood swords; this one was engraved with numerous seal scripts.

It was clearly a flying spirit artifact. This boy was one of the few alchemists among the hundred or so people, and judging by his artifact, he was likely a six or seven-rank alchemist.

Relying on his flying spirit artifact, the boy made a break for it.

"Once here, it’s not up to you whether to quit or not."

Seeing the boy’s actions, the male disciple of the Lonely Moon Sea who spoke earlier flashed a cold gaze.

The sea surface suddenly underwent a change.

The fierce gang wind, carrying wild winds and furious waves, swept forward.

The flying sword of the boy who had flown several dozen meters was snapped in two by the gang wind.

Caught in the gang wind, the boy became like a seagull with broken wings, flapping a few times before plummeting straight down, swallowed by the waves of the Galaxy Creek.

The entire process lasted just a blink of an eye. Seeing this, everyone on the sea ridge fell silent.

Those disciples who had been itchy to escape and quit immediately lost all hope.

"You all saw it, right? He is your lesson. The Galaxy Creek lies at the outskirts of the Lonely Moon Sea, and multiple prohibitions are set here. Forget flying; even attempting to use primordial or spiritual power is prohibited. You have only two choices: jump or die."

The male disciple’s words jolted everyone’s spirits.

"You, go first."

After speaking, the male disciple glanced at a shivering, frail girl beside him.

When the girl was named, it was as if her soul had been extracted; her eyes blacked out.

She was practically forced over the edge of the ridge.

Ah—

With a scream, the girl stumbled and hit her head on a hidden reef below, her head cracking open, her brains splattering everywhere.

Even in death, her eyes remained wide open, staring fixedly at the pitch-black sky. The inky sea waters were tinged with red but were quickly washed away by the waves.

The sea ridge returned to a deathly silence.
