Just before the morning sun was about to fall on the river, the Beiming stopped on the shore of Zhabei Pier.
The practitioners who had finished a night of partying walked down the gangway. The handsome and elegant captain stood on the deck beside the gangway as always, watching the practitioners get off the Bei Ming and disperse from the dock.
After the last practitioner who attended the party disembarked, the captain waved his hand and ordered people to put the gangway up. Then the Bei Ming turned the bow and sailed towards the sea.
A mist rose from the sea without warning, covering the hull of the Bei Ming, and the Bei Ming quickly disappeared on the sea.
...It's not because of the horizon. There seems to be no horizon in this world...
Shu Guan, who was standing on the shore of the dock with his hands behind his hands, thought so as he looked at the disappearing Beiming.
He felt that that should be Ms. No. 3’s method.
Because the fog that had just risen on the sea gave him a very similar feeling to the fog that had been shrouding Ms. No. 3's face.
"Sir, let's go now."
Song Qingyu, who was standing next to him, said something eagerly.
"That place may indeed be dangerous, Miss Song, I think you should tell the people in your Qingmei Club."
Shu Guan pondered for a moment and said.
He was afraid that something might happen to Song Qingyu, and then the two land gods from Qingmei Club would probably come all over Shencheng looking for him.
Shu Guan did not want to offend the largest cultivator force in Shencheng just after the Tantai family was destroyed.
"No, this matter is my personal matter. I don't want others in the club to know."
Song Qingyu shook his head firmly.
"Then wait a moment, I'll make a phone call first."
Shu Guan thought for a while, turned his head and glanced at the port authority on the pier in the distance, and said with a smile:
"I'm going to find a helper."
"Looking for help? I think you want to run away!"
Danyangzi, standing on the other side, said coldly.
"How about you follow me?"
Shu Guan walked towards the port authority and turned around to ask Danyang Zi.
Danyangzi snorted, but stood there without moving.
Just like he should have gone, but didn't.
Because he wanted to see how this masked man, whom he regarded as a liar, would end up in the end.
Shu Guan went to the empty port authority, found a phone, made a call to the horse racing club, and then returned to the dock.
"Who did you go to for help?"
Song Qingyu couldn't help but asked curiously.
"A friend, a powerful friend in the sea, he will be here soon."
Although Shu Guan himself had practiced Huan Shu, Huan Shu only allowed him to control water. In an environment as big as the sea, Ao Tiancai was truly powerful in all directions and without blind spots.
"It's very powerful in the sea..."
Song Qingyu's expression became a little strange.
Because when it comes to her abilities in the sea, since she attained Taoism, she has never encountered a practitioner stronger than her in the same realm.
Danyangzi sneered again. He glanced at Shuguan lightly, with an expression on his face that he was watching a good show.
So far, he still doesn't believe that the masked man has really figured out where the fish bone came from, and because Shu Guan has never revealed his Nascent Soul realm, Danyangzi doesn't think Shu Guan can do anything. Awesome friends.
It wasn't until more than ten minutes later that Ao Tian strode over from outside the pier.
"Boss, I'm here."
Ao Tian walked up to Shu Guan and greeted him warmly.
Beside Shu Guan, Song Qingyu and Danyangzi froze at the same time after Ao Tian appeared.
Danyangzi's face at this moment was full of disbelief and shock.
He is actually a powerful Nascent Soul!
This guy went to make a phone call and called for a powerful Nascent Soul!
Although Danyangzi still had no way of knowing whether the heroic and sunny young man who appeared at this time was really powerful in the sea, just being a Nascent Soul was enough.
In particular, this powerful Nascent Soul actually called the masked man "boss", which made Danyangzi's jaw almost drop in shock. At the same time, there was finally a hint of fear and fear in Shuguan's eyes.
As for Song Qingyu, her expression is more complicated.
Shu Guan summoned a Nascent Soul Powerful One with just one phone call, which naturally made her equally surprised and surprised. However, as a member of the Qingmei Club, her adoptive father and stepmother were land gods. There were a total of nine demon clansmen in the club, excluding In addition to his adopted father and adopted mother, there are still five Nascent Soul Powers left. Being with such powerful people every day, Song Qingyu's immunity to the Nascent Soul Powers is naturally higher than when he first entered Shen City. I don’t know how high the sky and the earth are in Shencheng’s cultivation world. Danyangzi is much stronger.
But when this young man full of masculine charm strode forward, Song Qingyu still felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
Because there was an aura about this young man that made her extremely kind and familiar, but within that familiarity, there was also a sense of oppression that made her fearful and make her want to worship him.
This feeling of oppression was even stronger than when she faced her adoptive father and stepmother.
It's not because this young man is stronger than his adoptive father and mother, but because this young man naturally has an aura that makes her blood and even her soul tremble.
"You...you are...the water tribe!"
Song Qingyu stared at Ao Tian and asked with a trembling voice.
Ao Tian heard the news and went away. This was the first time he looked at Song Qingyu.
Then, he watched this first glance for more than ten seconds.
"...Yeah...you too..."
He replied blankly.
In these ten seconds, Ao Tian was a little distracted and a little lost.
Ao Tian and Song Qingyu were facing each other and staring at each other. The emotions in their eyes changed from shock and surprise at the beginning, to later they seemed to just want to stare at each other.
Shu looked at Ao Tian and then at Song Qingyu. The expression under his mask became a little weird and a little surprised. He didn't expect that such a thing would happen after calling Ao Tian over.
Of course, we don’t know yet whether this is a good thing or a bad thing.
Then Shuguan coughed.
Ao Tian and Song Qingyu said "Ah" at the same time and both came to their senses.
"Boss, why did you ask me to come here?"
Ao Tian turned his head and asked with some embarrassment.
"Let's go help Miss Song do something."
Shu Guan glanced at Ao Tian lightly and said.
Ao Tian's expression suddenly perked up.
But Shu Guan had already taken a step forward.
He stepped directly from the shore of the pier to the sea, and his feet landed among the blue waves. The waves under his feet instantly subsided and turned into a flat and transparent ground like glass.
Then Shu Guan stepped forward and walked forward. Wherever he passed, the waves were calm, as if he were walking on flat ground.
Shu Guan walked towards the depths of the sea with his hands behind his back.
Ao Tian also quickly jumped down from the pier. He was in the air. Before he landed on the sea, a high wave suddenly surged on the sea, firmly supporting Ao Tian's feet.
Then Ao Tian also followed Shu Guan and walked into the distance. Unlike Shu Guan, wherever he passed, there were waves, but those waves did not have any wild meaning. Each one was obedient and followed the gentle little ones. Like a cat, it carried Ao Tian forward quickly.
Seeing this scene, Song Qingyu's eyes burst out with extremely bright light.
As a water tribe, she could naturally see how mysterious and shocking the methods displayed by the two people when they entered the sea just now.
The man with the mask showed his absolute control over the water.
A kind of absolute control that even a water tribe like her who grew up by the sea could only dream of.
The problem is that the masked man is basically a human race. How can he control water so much more powerfully than the aquatic race?
But what that heroic young man showed was his absolute affinity for water.
It was also a kind of closeness that made Song Qingyu feel ashamed, and even made Song Qingyu feel jealous, as if a very good friend of hers was suddenly better with another person.
Then Song Qingyu, who was dazed for a few seconds, suppressed the shock in his heart like waves, and gently jumped up, jumping into the sea like a spiritual fish.
She didn't stand directly on the sea like Shu Guan and Ao Tian did. It wasn't that she didn't want to, but that she really couldn't do it.
The actions of those two people seemed simple, but in this era of declining Dao, it was definitely not something that a Fetal Movement Realm practitioner like her could do, even if she was a water tribe.
Song Qingyu can walk on the water for a certain distance, but if he has to walk hundreds of miles, he definitely doesn't have the strength.
So Song Qingyu jumped into the sea, and her graceful body floated up and down among the waves, but the clothes on her body were not stained by water, and she looked like a mermaid.
And even Song Qingyu couldn't walk on the sea, so naturally Danyangzi couldn't do it.
He watched with dumbfounded eyes as the three of them entered the sea one after another. With his strength in the middle stage of Fetal Movement Realm, it was no problem to fly hundreds of meters across the sea with just one breath.
If he worked hard, he could run all over the sea, but then there was nothing he could do. The problem was that he was still a landlubber and couldn't swim at all.
I originally thought I was going to an island a hundred miles away by boat, but I thought these three people actually walked or swam there directly!
Danyangzi stood blankly on the shore, wanting to follow him to have a look, but he didn't have the strength.
At this time, Song Qingyu, who had already swam five to six hundred meters, seemed to finally remember that there was a person like Danyangzi. She quickly touched the corner of her eye, and a seven-colored scale flew out from the corner of her eye, fell into the sea water, and transformed into For the sake of the size of the table, he floated in front of Danyangzi.
"Your Excellency Danyangzi, please stand on these scales and come over. Don't worry, I will never let you fall into the sea."
Song Qingyu let out a burst of giggles.
Danyangzi looked at the colorful fish scales swaying in the sea water and hesitated for a few seconds. Finally, curiosity and reluctance overcame fear. He gritted his teeth and jumped on top of the fish scales.
…
This is a small and desolate island.
The part exposed on the sea is only two or three miles in radius. The island is bare at first glance, with only pieces of cold and rugged rocks. The rocks are covered with seabird excrement. It is not even because there are many seabirds building here. It is not a nest, but the droppings left by predatory seabirds that occasionally pass by here and temporarily settle down.
This can be deduced from the dryness of the guano.
This island is so desolate.
There are no trees on the island, no streams, and nothing but rocks.
Such an island is naturally not suitable for human habitation, and there are no traces of anyone living on the island.
But Shu Guan felt that even though this island was very beautiful and so close to the coast, it might have never been discovered before.
Because when he came over, he found a strange undercurrent in the sea more than ten nautical miles away from the island. That undercurrent flowed around the island. The current was very powerful. As for how powerful it was, that's all. Well, even today's steamships, as long as they are less than 10,000 tons, enter that undercurrent, they will be pushed off course by the undercurrent.
And ten nautical miles away, even if the weather is clear, it is difficult for ordinary people to see this small island, which is only about two or three meters above the sea.
So that undercurrent is like a natural barrier. This island is isolated from the outside world and blocks any ships and mortals who want to approach this island.
Without extraordinary power and a 10,000-ton steamship, mortals in the past would never have dreamed of discovering this island.
And 10,000-ton steamships have only appeared in this world for a few decades and are extremely rare. How could they discover this small island in the sea by such a coincidence?
So Shu Guan even felt that this island did not exist in Dahua's sea map.
Of course, practitioners are another matter.
Otherwise, Song Qingyun's fish bone, according to his calculation, came from this island.
Since it is impossible for mortals to get close to this island, who brought that fish bone out of the island?
Naturally, it should be a practitioner, or at least a creature with extraordinary power... Of course, it may also be a seabird that occasionally passes by this island.
At this time, Shuguan's speculation has stopped so far.
But no matter what, you can already feel the strangeness of this island before you even land on it.
Shu Guan stood on the sea a few hundred meters away from the island and carefully observed the island. His eyebrows under the mask frowned slightly.
The feng shui leyline aura of this island is a bit strange.
No wonder when Song Qingyu asked for help at a trade fair, he not only asked for knowledge of hexagrams, but also Feng Shui.
Just looking at it this way, Song Qingyu seems to have known about this island a long time ago, so he made such a request.
After standing on the sea for five or six minutes, Shu Guan slowly landed on the small island.
At this time, Ao Tian, Song Qingyu and Danyang Zicai finally arrived at the island.
Ao Tian naturally has no problem, but the undercurrent surrounding the island is also an insurmountable gap for Song Qingyu.
A fish demon in the Fetal Movement Realm, her power is absolutely incomparable to that of a 10,000-ton ship.
So after discovering that Song Qingyu was washed away by the undercurrent several times, Ao Tian went back and brought the two of them in.
As soon as she set foot on the island, Song Qingyu's expression became extremely strange. She seemed very excited, very confused, and a little sad. She kept looking around as if she was looking for something.
The first thing Danyangzi did after setting foot on the island was to squat down and vomit.
Things like seasickness are sometimes born, and even if you are a strong person in the fetal movement realm, there is nothing you can do to change it.
After vomiting for a long time, Danyangzi, who was originally very charming, finally wiped the corners of his mouth and stood up without any manners.
His face was very pale.
But when he looked around the island, his face became paler.
"The place where all souls are haunted!"
This scream came from his mouth.
"This is a very dangerous place! Miss Song, we have to leave here immediately. We must not stay here for a long time!"
While shouting in great fear, he turned around in panic and ran to the seaside again.
But at this time, the fish scales that carried him had been taken back by Song Qingyu. Looking at the vast sea, Danyangzi had no way to escape.
"What is the Land of Ten Thousand Souls?"
Song Qingyu hurriedly came to his side. Affected by Danyangzi's panic and fear at this moment, she also asked with a sudden change in her face.
"The Land of Ten Thousand Souls is one of the ten dead places mentioned in Feng Shui. It is a place where the evil spirits of ghosts condense and persist after too many lives have died in one place."
"If you stay in such a place for a little longer, let alone a mortal, you will be killed immediately. Even a practitioner will be invaded by the evil spirit into the body, mind and spirit. At the least, he will become a demon, and at worst, the soul will be assimilated by the evil spirit. , become part of the ghost here.”
"Although I am a practitioner of the Gua Dao, I have also mastered the art of Feng Shui. I will never be mistaken. The evil spirit on this island is so strong that it must be the place where the evil spirits of thousands of souls are located."
"So, Miss Song, we must leave here immediately!"
Danyangzi explained quickly anxiously and fearfully.
And his words also made Song Qingyu's face turn pale.
"Your Excellency, is what he said true?"
Song Qingyu quickly asked Shu Guan.
After Shu Guan landed ashore, he walked slowly among the jagged and cold stones, sometimes frowning, sometimes in a daze.
Of course, he also heard every detail of the conversation between Danyangzi and Song Qingyu.
At this time, Shu Guan turned his head and chuckled under the mask:
"Don't listen to his nonsense, he got it wrong again."
"This place may be a little dangerous, but it's definitely not as serious as he said, and it's not a place where all souls are haunted."
"How could I be wrong? It seems that you are really a liar. Are you saying that you are proficient in Feng Shui and can't even see the endless ghost energy on this island?"
Danyangzi yelled at Shuguan excitedly and angrily. At this moment, he couldn't care less about Shuguan's jokes and just wanted to leave the island immediately.
Shu Guan pointed at a few seabirds on the beach that were frightened and flew away because of their arrival, especially because of Danyangzi's roar at this moment, and said lightly:
"Then can you explain what's going on?"
Danyangzi was suddenly startled.
Yes, if this is the place where all souls are haunted, how can these ordinary seabirds come and go freely?
For a moment, Danyangzi was so stunned that he couldn't say a word.
"follow me."
Shu Guan, on the other hand, still walked towards the center of the island with his hands behind his back.
