The rain was pouring down.
Since entering the boundless sea, the scenery has never changed. The sky is always covered with dense storm clouds, intertwined with dense thunder snakes. Occasionally they fall into the ink-like sea below, and you can also hear the sounds of unknown sea beasts, full of... The shrill roar made people shudder.
Looking at the huge fleet on land, it seemed extremely small at this moment.
Especially when encountering huge waves, the two-hundred-foot-long hull will be thrown up high like a small sampan, and then fall heavily to the trough of the waves. Every time they encounter such long waves, the monks on the boat will inevitably suffer some hardships, and they are always reminded that the road to wealth in the East China Sea is not easy.
But there is no good news at all.
In such bad weather, even sea animals will not come out to look for food.
During the voyage, except for a few low-level sea beasts with no eyes that were knocked unconscious by the waves, rushed up and damaged the armor plate of the seagoing ship, and swallowed a sailor who panicked and fell into the sea, no other decent threats were encountered. .
Lu Zhong was very satisfied with this.
But at the moment, the fleet has just entered the boundless sea, so it is normal to encounter no trouble.
According to the information Yu Mingzi received, when he enters more than 60,000 miles into the depths of the boundless sea, a sea area called the "Blue Sea Abyss", the demon cultivator will most likely ambush him there, and that's when he will face the challenge. , once unable to repel the attacking demon cultivators, they can only fly to the East China Sea by themselves.
This is tiring and dangerous, and I don’t know how many times I’ll have to fight along the way.
"Wuding Sea, if there is no such sea area, the fleet can go straight to the East China Sea without taking huge risks, almost going deep into the inland sea of the Boundless Sea." Lu Zhong thought of the Boundless Sea, and only a few words came to mind. , only gave a rough description of this dangerous place.
The boundless sea is located along the coast of Tianyuan Immortal Palace. It is said that there was once an immortal battlefield.
"Immortal? Haha, if it is really the battlefield of immortals, I am afraid that the time when the war took place would have been before the ancient times, when the civilization of this world had not yet begun."
Lu Zhong couldn't help but continue to guess.
What on earth could cause the immortals to fight?
It's probably just a conflict of interest.
After all, even if you practice to become an immortal, you can't avoid the most fundamental word of interest, and where there are interests, there will definitely be conflicts. It is estimated that even immortals are not immune to this.
"Maybe I really guessed it!" Lu Zhongmo thought.
In the following days, the fleet continued to sail towards the deep sea.
Strangely enough, the deeper you go into the boundless sea, the weaker the storm becomes. At the same time, the color of the sea water gradually changes, turning into a normal deep sea color.
At the same time, the number of sea beasts encountered on the road also increased.
Affected by this, the fleet encountered more and more attacks every day.
Monks continued to die as a result.
Due to cost reasons, the fleet does not always turn on the shield.
Therefore, strange sea beasts often sneak into the fleet. Their abilities are varied, or they can emit toxins, causing a large number of casualties among monks; It is already too late;
And some sea beasts are extremely talented. Although they are extremely weak and can easily strangle mortals to death, they can perfectly disguise themselves as monks, and even the Tianluo Mysterious Child Technique can't detect any abnormalities.
If Lu Zhong had not given a true reply, he would have concealed it.
Compared with these sea beasts with all kinds of strange abilities and difficult to guard against, he still prefers to face the enemy head-on with real swords and guns. It doesn't matter even if the opponent is a demon cultivator in disguise. In this way, he doesn't have to worry too much, and he doesn't have to fight with those weird sea beasts. Brave.
People were dying all the time, even Lu Zhong was numb.
For such a large fleet, the death toll is just a reasonable loss. As long as it can be controlled within half, everyone will be happy. After all, according to normal data, the loss is usually around 30%. All the monks accepted this condition before buying a ticket to the East China Sea.
They took such risks just to head to the East China Sea, which is full of opportunities.
Regarding this point, Lu Zhong agreed very much.
But while the East China Sea is full of opportunities, it is also a bottomless pit that swallows human lives. The low-level monks on the ship are probably aware of this, but they are more willing to pay the price of their lives to try their luck in that land of opportunity than in Middle-earth, which has no hope at all.
Or be buried in the demon's belly.
Or become a new legend of the East China Sea!
…
It’s the tenth month of departure.
"winter!"
The ship shook violently, almost knocking away the tea that Lu Zhong had brewed.
"Just now... there seemed to be an astonishing evil spirit, did you feel it?" Shui Niliu frowned slightly, returning the teacups and teapots that were fixed in the air to their places one by one, and said to Lu Zhong at the same time.
"I sensed it." Lu Zhong's expression became solemn.
This demonic energy was the most powerful he had ever seen in his life, and even the black dragon was inferior by a few points. The intensity of monster energy is often the direct criterion for evaluating the strength of monster beasts. Usually, the stronger the monster's aura, the more terrifying its strength will be, and there is no exception to this.
"You can continue to recover peacefully. It's best to recover before arriving at Qingbi Haiyuan. I'll go see what happened." Lu Zhong held down Shui Ni who was about to get up. It was not convenient for her to take action in such a state. There is no need to take action, it is better to recuperate and recover as soon as possible.
After all, if the sea beast or demon cultivator they encounter is too strong for even him to repel, then the two of them can just use escape techniques to escape without thinking about anything.
"I hope this situation will not happen..." He gave Shui Ni a reassuring look, but he couldn't help but have such thoughts in his heart.
Compared with the known land, even after millions of years of immortal preaching, the vast and boundless ocean is still an area rarely explored by immortal cultivators. Even to this day, no one knows the other side of the boundless sea. One end, what exactly is there?
After comforting Shui Ni.
Lu Zhong ducked to the deck, where the Danjie Steward was already waiting.
However, the steward did not need to describe the current situation orally. At this time, he already knew what happened just now through a pair of naked eyes.
On the left side of the fleet, huge islands suddenly appeared.
Being in the depths of the boundless sea, logically there shouldn't be any islands. There is only one explanation for this situation, and that is encountering an "island turtle".
If you look closely, you can see that the giant islands are moving slowly.
"Senior, we encountered a group of island turtles. The shock just now was caused by a young turtle accidentally hitting the bottom of the boat when it was floating."
The steward pointed to a place on the side of the ship. There was indeed an island there.
Through the deep blue water, you can still see the flapping limbs of the island turtle. The shape is similar to that of most turtles in the sea, and the head looks a bit simple.
Before long, the reckless hatchling swam further and further away.
"Okay, it turns out it was a false alarm." Lu Zhong breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, we saw streaks of escaping light flying from the ships in front of us. We guessed that some monks thought that this was a rare opportunity and wanted to go to the island on the back of the island turtle to collect the treasures that might exist on it.
The fleet will not stop their behavior, but they will also not provide help.
After all, when you make a decision, you have to be responsible for it.
