Chapter 498 Pirates
From the Lanzhou estuary to the North Sea, there is a vast sea area in between, which belongs to the South Region.
This distance is a gap that is difficult to cross in a lifetime for ordinary people, and it is also far away for cultivators. This section of the sea is also the range for cultivators in the South Region to go out to sea. Most of the cultivators go out to sea within this range to obtain resources.
The sea is still a vast world in this world. Its loneliness and silence are quietly solemn in this world, carrying time, carrying history, and occupying most of the area of this world. The resources in the ocean are still a treasure to be discovered for cultivators.
Whether it is the ubiquitous sea spirit beasts in the vast ocean, or the relics that sank to the bottom of the sea a long time ago, or the natural treasures that were brewed in the ocean environment...
For cultivators, they are all of great value, so the profession of sea seekers also came into being.
The sea surface was sparkling, reflecting various colors of light under the sunshine. Looking around, you can see ships floating on the sea like leaves. When you go deeper, the ships become sparse. On the vast sea, except for occasional reefs and surging waves, there is only monotony.
"It's really comfortable. The years are quiet and good, probably like this."
In the sea, on the spiritual boat where Yu Changsheng and Wei Lao are, Yu Changsheng stood on the deck and looked into the distance. The sea breeze slapped his sleeves, and his sleeves bleated. The sky was bright, and his eyes were dazed, and he sighed.
From the time they set foot on the sea to now, the two have been sailing for more than two months. They are very far away from the Lanzhou mainland. In this endless sea, at a glance, there is nothing else except the surging waves.
After the initial shock, Yu Changsheng got used to the increasingly monotonous and unchanging sea surface. While practicing, everything was relatively stable, which was rare and peaceful.
The concentration of spiritual energy in the sea area was much richer than that on the mainland, which also meant that practicing here was faster and more suitable than other places.
Fortunately, there was the black tortoise during the two-month voyage. Under its aura, many sea beasts left early and did not dare to come to provoke them.
However, it was not completely calm. Some of the strange stories were eye-opening even for Yu Changsheng's knowledge.
For the cultivation world, the sea may be a more mysterious place for humans than the land. The vast sea area and special environment, how many dangers are brewing in it, are unknown.
However, compared to the undisputed overlords of the continent, in the ocean, the spirit beasts have become the masters of the sea. Without the interference of human cultivators, under the condition of natural development, many spirit beasts in this sea area have reached a height that can be called terrifying to the cultivators.
For example, Yu Changsheng encountered a giant whale spirit beast with a length of a thousand feet last month. When it suddenly surfaced, it rolled up a shocking wave, covering the sky. In the midst of the ups and downs, Chen swallowed another spirit beast in the shape of a dragon into his stomach.
The wave of fear erupted, the dragon screamed, and the breath it burst out had reached the level of the fifth level, but it had no resistance in front of this giant whale, and was swallowed and refined by it directly.
Fortunately, perhaps because the giant whale was too big, it looked down on Yu Changsheng, a small shrimp, so it did not care about Yu Changsheng. After eating the dragon, it continued to lurk in the dark seabed, leaving Yu Changsheng in fear and fear, and more cautious.
Level 6 spirit beasts may not be common in the deep sea, but they are not rare either, and level 5 spirit beasts are not even top-notch.
Therefore, Yu Changsheng was more cautious and careful in the rest of the journey. Fortunately, such things did not happen again.
In addition to the threat of spirit beasts in the sea, man-made disasters are also very common and serious in the sea.
Unlike the profession of sea seekers, who go out to sea to search for resources, pirates are also active in the sea. As the name suggests, they are a group of people who specialize in robbing other people's spirit boats, robbing resources and killing people.
The specific number of them is unknown and difficult to count. Most of them live in groups, and they are divided into different pirate groups according to their strength and number of people.
Because there are many forces entrenched in the North Sea, and their vision is serious, it is far beyond the ability of this group of small people to resist and think about. Therefore, the existence of pirates is generally active in the North Sea and Lanzhou Sea.
This kind of thing is commonplace in the sea and is not surprising.
For example, two months later, the spirit boat continued to set off towards the North Sea. After a safe journey, at noon that day, the sun was shining brightly. On the deck, Yu Changsheng, who was practicing with his eyes closed, slowly opened his eyes. At the same time, Wei Lao, who was beside him, stood up, frowned slightly, and looked at Yu Changsheng.
"Should we care?"
Wei Lao asked indifferently.
Ahead, the waves surged, and two large spirit boats collided. One by one, the cultivators fought fiercely. The light of magical powers and spells flashed all over the sky, and the sound was deafening, bombarding waves of huge waves, which rose up. In the waves, the cultivators of the two boats fought fiercely on the waves.
Both boats were a hundred feet in size, but one was a little bigger. The huge sails fluttered in the wind. As the sea breeze spread fiercely, a pattern like a dragon was engraved on the white sails, which was lifelike, with its teeth and claws bared and ferocious, as a flag.
On the other end of the ship, a huge sail made a roar in the wind, with a skull pattern painted on it. The flagpole that ran through the sail was hung with ferocious skulls. There were animals and humans, flashing with a faint red light, and an astonishing evil spirit was rising.
Whistling sounds and screams echoed on the sea surface. The sea water surged and gradually became dyed red. A body gradually fell into the sea water, being pushed by the waves or sinking to the bottom of the sea.
However, the one with the smaller spirit boat was obviously more damaged, that is, the side with the dragon pattern flag. With the loss of each monk, it was obvious that the defeat was certain.
"Qin Kairong! Don't go too far, you idiot pirates. You even dare to rob the ships of my Jiaolong Island. You are really lawless and arrogant. You really think that our Jiaolong Island is invincible. If you are discovered by my island master, you will be destroyed." All members of the ignorant pirate group!”
On the Dragon Island side, one of the middle-aged monks wearing green robes knocked away another person he called Qin Kairong with one blow, and then made an angry sound.
A trace of blood flowed from his forehead, and his mid-level cultivation of golden elixir spread out. However, facing Tan Kairong, it still didn't look good enough.
"Haha, Han Hua, look at what you said. Who in the vast sea is not a pirate? They are all living a life of licking blood on the tip of a knife. Stop talking nonsense with me and hand over the fourth-level spiritual beast Tenghailong Neidan. I might even be able to keep your body intact."
Qin Kairong sneered and looked at Han Hua with an obvious look of amusement in her eyes.
"you!"
Han Hua was extremely angry, pointing at Qin Kairong, his chest heaved violently, and he spit out a mouthful of blood while gritting his teeth, "If our island master hadn't been away, how could you dare to be so arrogant? Aren't you afraid of being retaliated against after you go back?"
"Oh? You mean that kid Jiaolong, haha." Tan Kairong shook his head and sneered, "The ending will be the same if he comes, not to mention..."
Qin Kairong paused, looked at Han Hua and the other three with cold eyes, and said in a cold tone: "As long as I kill you, who in this vast sea will know that it was me who killed you?"
"Second Master, the island owner is not here. We are no match for Tan Kairong. If we find an opportunity, we will help you escape!"
The remaining three people on Jiaolong Island approached Han Hua. They were all scarred and panting violently. Both of them were in the early stage of Jindan. They protected Han Hua and said with a wry smile.
"this……"
Han Hua gritted his teeth and pursed his lips, feeling the strength in his body. He remained silent and felt a bitter feeling in his heart.
"Want to escape? That's a good idea, but unfortunately it's far from qualified."
Qin Kairong smiled and shook his head. As he waved, the two companions beside him raised their swords high in the hands and looked at the three of them with excited and bloodthirsty eyes.
"Okay, let's deal with you as soon as possible to avoid long nights of nightmares. As for the dragon, if he can find it, we can kill him together."
Qin Kairong looked at the three of them and sneered. She slowly raised her arms, and the ice needles condensed one after another, flashing with cold light...
"It's over..."
Han Hua's heart sank, he took a deep breath, suppressed the injuries on his body, and waved a protective shield in his sleeves in front of him.
"Um?!"
At this moment, Qin Kairong suddenly raised his head, frowned slightly, and looked to the side not far away. He happened to look at Yu Changsheng who was passing by across the sea. The movements of his hands stopped and he squinted his eyes.
Yu Changsheng looked indifferent, looking at everyone with lowered eyebrows, shaking his head and not intending to pay attention, so he continued to drive the spirit boat on the waves without saying a word, and was about to leave.
When Mr. Wei saw this, he just gave him a slight glance, and naturally he was too lazy to pay attention.
Tan Kairong, on the other hand, looked at Yu Changsheng and others warily. After he could no longer see through the cultivation level of Yu Changsheng and others, his eyes dimmed and he hesitated.
Seeing this, the eyes of Han Hua and the other three people on the side lit up. Seeing that Yu Changsheng and his party were about to leave, they suddenly became anxious and shouted quickly:
"Fellow Taoist, we are from Jiaolong Island. We are not asking for help from a few fellow Taoists, but we are asking you to send a message to our island owner after we come down from the mountain. I, Han Hua, want the fourth-level sea beast we got from going to sea because Qin Kairong killed people and took treasures. Neidan was killed by the ignorant pirate group Qin Kairong!"
"At that time, my island master will definitely be rewarded with a lot of money, and I will be very grateful."
After saying that, the air suddenly became quiet, and Qin Kairong suddenly turned her head and looked at Han Hua, her face was gloomy, and her murderous intent was revealed.
"Shut up!"
Yu Changsheng stopped for a moment, lowered his eyebrows and looked at Han Hua, who had pursed lips and a pale face. His brows narrowed and he spoke lightly:
"not interested."
After saying that, Yu Changsheng looked at Qin Kairong, raised his legs and was about to leave.
"Wait a moment."
A sudden voice suddenly sounded, but it was Qin Kairong with a gloomy face. His eyes were focused and he looked deeply at Yu Changsheng and others. The corners of his mouth twitched, showing a bad look on his face.
"Huh?" Yu Changsheng raised his eyebrows, but he didn't look at Qin Kairong, but at Mr. Wei.
Elder Wei looked calm, glanced at the people below, and said to Yu Changsheng: "Although the fourth-level sea beast Teng Hailong is not very powerful, its bloodline is very rare, and it is a great supplement for spiritual beasts of the same attribute. The best ingredients are worth a lot of money and are just right for Black Turtle.”
When Yu Changsheng heard this, he understood in his heart, nodded gently, and looked at Qin Kairong with indifferent eyes.
Tan Kairong gritted his teeth, his brows darkened, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, and after careful consideration, he spoke sadly:
"Originally I didn't want to keep you, but since you all heard it, in order to prevent you from snitching, there is no other way."
When Qin Kairong thought about it, although he was somewhat unsure of the cultivation level of Yu Changsheng and others, judging from the situation, his young appearance must not be that high, otherwise he would not have left in such a hurry.
What's more, he is in the late stage of foundation building. In this sea area, as long as the purple mansion does not come out, he should have no problem protecting himself.
Facing Tan Kairong's threat, Yu Changsheng chose to ignore it, but turned to look at Han Hua, frowned and said lightly:
"Where is the inner elixir of the sea beast?"
Han Hua took a deep breath, looked at Yu Changsheng, lowered his head involuntarily, and murmured in a low voice:
"Here, if you wish me out of trouble, there will be a large reward."
Seeing that he was directly ignored, Tan Kairong's expression was straight, and then he laughed in anger, waved his sleeves and said coldly: "Yunfeng, Yunhe, play with this guest."
As soon as the voice fell, the two companions beside him suddenly exploded, raised their long swords, rushed towards Yu Changsheng and chopped him hard.
"Noisy!"
Yu Changsheng frowned, looked at the two people, a cold light flashed in his eyes, without dodging or evading, he stretched out a finger, the power of his body burst out, the blood and qi surged and condensed into a huge finger, and flicked it at the two people rushing over!
"Swing!"
The next moment, the long swords in Yunfeng and Yunhe's hands were swung away, and their bodies flew backwards like kites with broken strings, and large mouthfuls of blood kept flowing out of their mouths, bleeding into the void.
Yu Changsheng's expression was cold and unmoved, his blood and qi surged, and once again condensed into a blood-colored giant palm in the sky, and darkened it towards the two people flying backwards!
"Boom!"
In an instant, Yunhe and Yunfeng's bones were all broken, their eyes bulged out, and the fear on their faces did not wait to completely solidify, and two balls of fire burned from their bodies out of thin air. Without a scream, their bodies were completely turned into ashes and blown away by the wind.
"What?"
"How is it possible? You are the Purple Mansion True Lord?!"
Qin Kairong was stunned, screamed, looked at Yu Changsheng, the horror in her eyes was not concealed, and the next moment, without the slightest hesitation, she turned around and ran away.
Fast, too fast, from the time Yu Changsheng made his move to the end, it took only two breaths, and he had already suppressed Yunhe and Yunfeng. This kind of strength, in Qin Kairong's view, is unfathomable, and only the Purple Mansion can have it.
Therefore, she was able to not run away, and her heart was trembling incomparably, and the horror filled her mind, and she regretted it secretly.
"Want to run, is it useful?"
Yu Changsheng looked at Qin Kairong's fleeing figure, shook his head indifferently, stretched out his hand and flicked it lightly, and the next moment, a sword light suddenly flashed.
"Puff..."
The next moment, a head flew up quietly. (End of this chapter)
