Li Qi was still trekking, but now he was finally leaving the 'coast' and was about to arrive at Dongyu Island.
Although it is said to be along the coast, it is already two to thirty thousand miles away from the real 'shore'.
However, it is still considered a coast. After all, the world is still quite big. Although the sea here is hundreds of miles deep, it is still considered a 'shallow sea'.
The shallow sea is actually the most lively. A large number of small fish and shrimps, sufficient sunlight, and nutrients washed down by rivers on land make the shallow sea more dynamic.
As for going further, to the deep sea, there will not be such a rich ecology there now.
It's just that... that kind of place is already out of touch with the 'mortal' ecology.
Although the shallow sea at this moment looks strange, it generally abides by the rules of the ecological circle. There are many mortal objects and ordinary fish and shrimps.
But... because it's in the world, it's actually not very ordinary. It shouldn't be a problem for the mortal fish here to unite and kill all the ninth-level fish.
But once you get to the deep sea, things start to change.
The only ones that exist there are spiritual beasts, mythical beasts, monsters and real dragons.
The deep water vapor in the deep sea, as well as things like the remains of the Dragon King, as well as the most terrifying storm in the deep sea, the strong wind layer from the entire world, have all shaped it into a zone where only the strong can survive.
Especially the Gangfeng layer.
Li Qi knew that at the end of the East China Sea, the far east of the world, there was a cliff. Water was constantly falling from the edge of the sea and the void, forming a very spectacular huge waterfall that spanned countless thousands of miles. The wind picks up and spreads throughout the world, completing a water cycle. (See Chapter 337)
Therefore, it can be seen that the Gangfeng layer is attached to the disc continent of the world like a soap bubble. According to this structure, the closer to the center, the farther the Gangfeng is from the ground, and the closer to the edge, the closer the Gangfeng is to the ground. .
On the ground, there is steam from the earth to compete with it, so it is just an ordinary wind.
But in the East China Sea... the Gangfeng layer is close to the sea surface. Such storms will set off huge waves hundreds of miles high, and even seventh-grade people will be unable to extricate themselves from them.
The big storm coming from the Gangfeng layer, all kinds of giant sea monsters, spiritual beasts, and all kinds of demon dragons that absorbed the energy of the East Sea and practiced cultivation...
That is the truly cruel place in the East China Sea, and it is also Li Qi's destination.
Finally, after two and a half days of trekking, Li Qi finally arrived at Dongyu.
The path pointed by the mirage seemed to be right.
In fact, it doesn't matter if it's wrong, he can always find a way, it just takes a few more days, it's a trivial matter.
The Dongyu that Li Qi came to this time was Dongyu 4632.
Dongyu, which Li Dao cooperates with Donghai, is essentially a large-scale institution with more than 6,000 in total, distributed along the entire East China Sea coast, making it convenient to receive guests who want to come to Donghai.
Li Qi has always been strange about Li Dao.
Li Dao is similar to martial arts. They are both second-rate Taoist traditions in the world. Although they do not occupy one of the nine places in the world, they have their own influence in various places.
For example, Li Dao has a deep connection with the Mohist School of Humanity, is also involved in witchcraft, and is even more closely related to spiritual Tao. I heard that Li Dao initially participated in the development of Taoist elixirs...
Today, Dongyu in the East China Sea was also built by Li Dao...
Perhaps, is there a possibility that there is such a core existence in Li Dao and Martial Arts that controls these second-rate Taoism to spread their own roots in all parts of the world?
In this way, although they cannot occupy the nine places in the world, they can still maintain their status and inheritance.
If you have the chance... look for similar clues, maybe you can get a deeper understanding of these second-rate traditions.
Thinking like this, 'Dongyu' finally appeared in front of Li Qi as he originally expected.
However, it is not the same as the imagined Dongyu.
The Dongyu Island in Li Qi's imagination should be a giant mechanism island, just like the one in science fiction. A large island made of metal, like a city, floats on the sea in some way.
After all, the book he read recorded the existence of such a thing as Dongyu, but did not say what Dongyu looked like.
However, when Dongyu appeared in front of him, he was still stunned.
It's not an island, it's a puppet.
A super, extremely, extremely huge and towering puppet!
The puppet is roughly human-shaped, with hands and feet, and stands on two legs——
That's right, standing, Dongyu... stood on the seabed. In other words, this puppet must have a body of at least five hundred miles long. He stepped on the seabed, and then walked continuously on the seabed.
However, although it is human-shaped, it does not look like a human being, because his head is not a human face, but some kind of... mountain?
Li Qi didn't know how to describe it. This was not a face that a humanoid creature should have. No... this giant statue had no face at all.
It's just a disk installed around the neck, with a city standing on the disk.
In addition to this, there are two discs on each shoulder.
Then, two hands were raised, each holding two disks.
In this way, the five disks, plus the countless "metal mountain"-like buildings inserted on them, are the whole picture of "Dongyu".
And this giant, carrying five disks, walked on the seabed step by step.
This giant has a huge size, as can be seen from its body that is hundreds of miles long, so the five disks are also extremely huge, and you can clearly see many people living, walking, and flying on them.
There are magic weapons and mounts constantly coming and going among the various disks, as if different disks are different urban areas, responsible for different social functions.
On the chest of the giant, there is a large and moving deep-water port. The ships coming and going, all made of magic weapons, sail into this port.
There is also a flying magic weapon, but that is obviously for laymen to come to the East China Sea.
Even people like Li Qi who have read travel guides know that flying magic weapons are not practical in the East China Sea.
As the ocean voyage progresses, the wind layer will get lower and lower, getting closer and closer to the sea surface.
After all, the Gangfeng layer is a flat soap bubble-like structure. The closer to the outer reaches of the world, the lower the Gangfeng layer is, and the easier it is for flying magic weapons to be affected. Moreover, the East China Sea does not have the earthly air to counteract it, so in Donghai's use of flying magic weapon is a very stupid thing.
Do you think so? Is the magic weapon for diving better? After all, you don’t have to worry about the Gangfeng layer in the water.
But in fact it's not the case. Although you don't have to worry about the Gangfeng layer, you have to worry about the undercurrents and sea beasts in the water.
Therefore, boats are the most practical.
Floating on the water, you don't have to face sea monsters anytime and anywhere. It can resist strong winds with the help of buoyancy. Moreover, when necessary, the boat can actually dive, and you don't even need to have a special diving function.
As long as it sinks, it will be fine. It is difficult for practitioners to drown anyway.
Seeing 'Dongyu 4632' in front of him, Li Qi suddenly had an idea.
Could it be that all Dongyu Islands are made up of giant puppets? How many people can this thing beat to death in a fight?
A bit annoying.
Li Qi was thinking wildly in his mind, but Lao Ma didn't stop. As his explosive speed increased, he rushed towards Dongyu.
Li Qi passed by many things, and he could see that near Dongyu, the population density increased rapidly.
Here, all mortals have been screened out, and everyone is at least ninth grade.
Without the ninth grade, there is no qualification to step into the deep sea.
Li Qi could see people flying in the air and people taking various means of transportation. Of course, the most common ones were boats.
Some are running on water by themselves, while others are riding different mounts, such as big fish, or various exotic beasts, white wolves, lions, and tigers.
There are even many horses, and there are also many dragon colts that are just like the old horses.
Of course, the most impressive thing was the strong man Li Qi passed by before. He actually controlled a dragon, stepped on the dragon's head, roared through the crowd, and attracted many times more attention than Li Qi.
Li Qi just glanced at it and immediately turned away.
What's the big deal if you have at least a fifth-grade cultivation level or above and control a dragon?
But, if you look at it this way...
The strength of Dongyu seems to be very high. My seventh grade is really in danger. It may not be that simple to gain a foothold here.
Fortunately, I didn't come here to establish myself, I just came here to travel and do some things.
Thinking about these things, Li Qi finally arrived within a hundred miles of Dongyu.
However, just as he entered this distance, he heard a loud noise!
It wasn't a crackling sound, but a very clear human voice. It was the elegant human language that Li Qi was familiar with. It was also a dynamic female voice, but the volume was too loud.
But he heard the voice ringing in Li Qi's ears at a huge decibel: "Newcomer! Please come to me to register your identity and go through the formalities!"
Li Qi was stunned when he heard the words "go through the formalities."
Is this place humane?
Doesn’t it mean that the Way of Heavenly Evolution never cares about these things?
Thinking about this, he began to look for the source of the sound.
Looking around, no one responded. It seemed that I was the only one who heard this voice?
Fortunately, the direction of the sound was very clear. Following this direction, Li Qi saw...a giant whale.
That's really... huge.
The sea whale shows its back and cuts across the sea, dividing the seashore into two parts.
But... Li Qi has become accustomed to this kind of giant beast in the past few days since he came to the East China Sea. Although the giant whale in front of him is dozens of miles long, it is just like that.
However, is this the sound made by this giant whale?
Li Qi thought about it, and took the initiative to gather all the information about Zhenzhiyun and the information flow field of vision, and he really saw the clues.
The giant whale in front of me seems to be able to emit a unique sound wave that only certain people can hear.
It's really interesting.
Moreover, there are many people surrounding the giant whale, and various means of transportation are piled on top of each other, as if they are all for registration.
In that case, go ahead and ask.
Ask why such a humane thing as 'registration' appears on Dongyu Island.
Li Qi rode his old horse and walked in the direction of the giant whale. The giant whale seemed to sense the direction Li Qi was coming, so it didn't yell at Li Qi.
But she was still sending out sound waves, and from time to time, other people would cover their ears with pain on their faces, obviously shocked by the sound of the giant whale.
Soon, Li Qi came to the edge of the giant whale, and saw the giant whale speaking again, uttering the same female voice as before: "Please come up to me, there is someone responsible for registration above."
"Human?" Li Qi was stunned and couldn't help but ask.
What happened to people? No, this is the East China Sea!
But the whale didn't respond.
Li Qi couldn't ask this giant whale, so he had to prepare to come on her back.
The old horse jumped into the air and quickly came to the back of the giant whale.
Li Qi took a closer look and saw that there were really many people up there, but... not people in the ordinary sense.
They are indeed the human race, and they are quite orthodox, from all over the world, but their bodies have undergone a considerable degree of transformation. Half of their bodies have been inlaid with various parts. It can be seen that those are The magic weapon of miniaturization.
There are various races that handle business in front of these half-human, half-magic 'people'. It's quite fast. Basically, they just walk around in front of them and get it done.
From this angle, Li Qi could see that he had collected the breath of the registrant, and then stored the breath for registration, and then he could leave.
I have to say, he is quite humane...
However, humanity should not have such extreme physical transformation. After all, for them, such transformation is meaningless. They have no method that requires this kind of transformation. It is purely a burden.
That is to say...
Reason?
Is Li Dao managing Dongyu?
Never heard of it.
Thinking of this, Li Qi asked Lao Ma to stand aside while he went to line up.
The queue is quite long, about two or three miles, all on the giant whale, and there is a steady stream of new people joining the queue. If we don't queue up quickly, it will probably be delayed for another half hour.
There were many giant beasts and other strange races in the team, but at this moment they all used the art of transformation to reduce their bodies so as not to occupy too much space, and they all lined up honestly.
Li Qi was also a little excited while queuing up.
This is the first time I have met a true, pure person of reason. Maybe we can exchange a few words and understand the reason.
After all, what you see in books is never true, and what you see on paper is ultimately shallow.
The queue lasted for about a quarter of an hour. Although the queue for the first two or three miles was very long, everyone was very conscious and did not jump in line or anything like that. It was orderly and efficient. We arrived at Li Qi in two quarters of an hour.
Li Qi walked forward enthusiastically, knowing that his rhyme was fully open and his vision of information flow was open, ready to analyze the pile of magic weapons on the opponent's body.
However, when they first came into contact, Li Qi's expression instantly became serious.
A special barrier bounced away the power of Zhen Zhi Yun!
This was the first time that Li Qi encountered something that could bounce Zhen Zhi Yun away.
You know, in the past, it was either impossible to scan, such as scanning Teacher Zhu Fengdan, and I really knew that in Yun's eyes, he was directly transparent and did not exist.
Either it can be scanned, and then the information will be read slowly.
For the first time, I really knew that Yun was 'rejected' by something.
What is the magic weapon on the other side?
