The Cursed Land was one of the six forbidden lands in Division 3 . It was a lonely island located on the east coast of the Peaceful Ocean .
The reason why the people named it the Cursed Land was not because humans who visited the land would be cursed . Instead, it was because all the monsters that entered would be cursed and would be unable to leave .
It was said that all the monsters that left the island would die within 24 hours . Their dead bodies would transform into spirits, and they would return to the island .
There was more than one Imperial Censor who had performed experiments here with their pet monster . As long as the pet monster was summoned on the island, they would die within 24 hours, transforming into a spirit despite being recalled when the Imperial Censor left the island . The contract between the pet monster and the Imperial Censor would then be rendered void . They would attack all the creatures that blocked their way for the sake of returning to the island .
Apart from that, all the creatures that died on this island, including humans would turn into spirits and become new prisoners on the island .
Lin Huang had heard of the different kinds of stories about the forbidden land soon after he reached Division 3 . He had also read through the information, so he was not even going to attempt it .
He chose such a place to obtain the cross-ranking reward because he suspected that there would be a hidden spiritual god's item or god relic on this island .
In fact, Lin Huang was not the first one who thought about this .
Just as the Cursed Land was discovered, many had suggested this . Up until more than 100 years ago, the rumor had spread to the entire Division 3, and almost all of the transcendents knew this .
Back then, many groups of explorers visited the Cursed Land . The explorers slaughtered almost all the spirits on the island . Every single corner of the island was explored, but nothing was discovered .
Over the past hundred years, nobody managed to find any of the spiritual items . Soon, the number of people who believed in this became lesser, and the number of explorers who visited the island declined .
What Lin Huang was thinking of was pretty simple . He merely wanted to look for a place with many immortal-level rank-9 monsters . The only locations that fulfilled this criterion were the six forbidden lands in Division 3 . Since the Cursed Land was one of the forbidden lands and there was such a legend about it being a place with spiritual items, Lin Huang decided to pay it a visit .
He was not expecting much from this trip . His main intention was to hunt the monsters so that he could obtain the cross-ranking reward . He would walk around and leave the Cursed Land after that .
He departed from Martel City and finally arrived at his destination, the Cursed Land, after two days .
The island was not as deserted as Lin Huang expected . He used to think that a place where spirits lived would not have any living plants . However, it was an island with lush greenery . Since the island was barely visited, it looked like a primitive jungle .
Most of the immortal-level explorers had to be extra careful when exploring a forbidden land like this, including Lin Huang .
He did not enter the jungle in the first place . He gradually floated into the air, retreating hundreds of meters away from the island . He then summoned Bloody .
The curse was not going to work if one did not enter the region covered by the island . This was also the reason why the fishes nearby could leave safely after hunting for food in the vicinity .
After confirming this, Lin Huang then dared to summon Bloody . However, for the sake of his monster's safety, he retreated 300 meters away before crushing Bloody's card .
"Is this the Cursed Land?" Bloody was curious about the island . "It's much livelier than I thought . "
"That's what I thought too . " Lin Huang said, smiling . "I won't bring you in this round . Please help me to check the location of the immortal-level rank-9 monsters, and I'll recall you back into your card form later . "
Bloody nodded its head . It knew that Lin Huang was doing so for the sake of its safety .
The Leech Pods were then controlled by Bloody, spreading towards the vast island .
After more than half an hour, Bloody then nodded its head at Lin Huang . "I've found them . There are quite a number of immortal-level rank-9 monsters on this island . "
"I supposed that you've explored further . Is there anything else you discovered?" Lin Huang knew Bloody very well . Since it knew that there were hidden spiritual items on this island, it would definitely check those out .
"I found nothing special . There's a burial ground situated at the west of the island . However, it seems like it's been dug countless times . There are a few lakes, which I think the people have explored as well . I'll mark them on the map for you . "
A map that Lin Huang had bought from the black market was then projected . Bloody marked it with different colors . The location of the immortal-level rank-9 monsters was marked in yellow whereas the location of the imperial-levels was marked in red . As for the lakes, Bloody marked them with a blue water droplet, and the burial ground was marked with a skeleton symbol . Several places looked strange to Bloody, so it marked them with a yellow question mark .
After getting all these done, Bloody briefly explained to Lin Huang about the condition of the places other than the burial ground . Lin Huang then recalled it back into its card form and headed towards the yellow spot, which was the nearest to him .
Before exploring, he wanted to obtain all the cross-ranking rewards first .
Soon, Lin Huang arrived at his first destination .
The first monster marked by Bloody was a spiritual bird .
It had two heads, but it obviously had them all along even before turning into a spirit . On top of the two of its heads, four white eyeballs without irises appeared . There were wounds on its stomach and wings . The wounds had stopped bleeding and had even begun to decay . However, it did not seem to have any reaction to it .
"I've no idea how long the Twinhead Dragon Condor has died for . " Lin Huang could tell what type of monster it was at first glance .
After observing it for a while, Lin Huang crushed the Double Reward Card he had and attacked the immortal-level rank-9 monster in a flash .
If he leveled up to gold flame-level under the regular leveling process, he would not have the confidence to kill an immortal-level rank-9 monster . However, he was pretty confident that he could now kill most of the immortal-level rank-9 monsters .
In less than two minutes, both the Twinhead Dragon Condor's heads were chopped off by Lin Huang's constant attacks . Before he could even store its dead body in his storage space, a notification from Xiao Hei arrived .
