Chapter 1290

In the ancient and modern times of Southern Jiang, the most talented and beautiful holy maiden — 【2】 Her heart pounded thump-thump in her chest. 【3】 "Whoosh." 【4】 Enticing words echoed in her ears, the night breeze teasing her hair. 【5】 She turned back. 【6】 Moonlight bright and clear, tree shadows swaying. 【7】 The surging within her body, like the morning tide, receded — the "Enchanter" vanished without a trace. 【8】 Hundreds of jointed limbs rose and fell, climbing; the crimson-red centipede let the mouse wrap around it, then burrowed anew into the silken cotton quilt; the ice mint in the copper brazier burned inward, exhaling pale smoke, releasing a mist that refreshed and awakened the parasitic insects; Awei lay reclined nearby, swallowing clouds and exhaling mist. 【9】 Li Xianghan snapped back to awareness. 【10】 "Quick, quick, quick — Da Huang, grind the ink! Zhong Hui, paper! Xiao Bai, brush! Hurry, hurry!" 【11】 "Hey ya!" 【12】 The mice bared their front teeth, shouted loudly, then crisscrossed and leapt like the wind. 【13】 Soon after. 【14】 The gray mouse embraced the sky-blue narrow-necked wide-bellied porcelain bottle, poured out clear water; the yellow mouse gripped the ink stick, pushed and pulled hard, the ink stick mixed with clear water, gradually diffusing into black ink, staining its paws black, spreading along the fur gaps to the calves. 【15】 Li Xianghan bent over the desk, writing furiously, legs crossed, her raised front paws tapping up and down, incessantly striking the horizontal rail, her eyes gleaming with sharp light. 【16】 "One point, three months; a full meridian, four points — all clarified, that's a whole year! Hehehe, I've struck it rich, struck it rich!" 【17】 If the new Tusi wishes to shake the Great Shun, it's impossible to simply contact a single demon king; conservatively, ten or more, with a small portion acting on impulse, only then could they possibly disrupt Great Shun's governance of the yellow sands — truly, casting a wide net to catch big fish. 【18】 As long as we clarify half of them, five demon kings, five full routes — 【19】 Five years! 【20】 Five years of reverse nourishment at the Yinglong level would be enough for her to advance to the peak of the Shouhu realm; by then, she would be the thirty-five-year-old Zhen Xiang Holy Maiden of Southern Jiang — no, as long as Liang Qu can sustain his descent, she wouldn't need thirty-five; half a year per realm, thirty-three, thirty-four! 【21】 Gazing across all of Southern Jiang, she would also be an extraordinarily radiant presence. 【22】 Before Liang Qu of Huai Wang, what was the youngest age for a Zhen Xiang breakthrough in Great Shun's records? 【23】 It seemed to be a man named Bai Guangyi, thirty-one years old, and to this day, he has not suffered an Yinglong. 【24】 But mainly because Great Shun's founding is still recent — only over sixty years — so such a figure has only just emerged; in the former Qian Dynasty, over a thousand years, there were younger ones, seemingly twenty-six or seven, but that was already long ago; Southern Jiang's Nine Villages pay no heed, and the people of Southern Jiang have no memory of it, after all, the current great enemy is Great Shun. 【25】 Thirty-three to thirty-one! 【26】 The gap has already narrowed considerably; inevitably, this will allow us to pull in another wave of resources. 【27】 Fighting spirit — ignited! 【28】 "Hehehe, snort snort." 【29】 Li Xianghan inhaled sharply, raised her hand, and wiped. 【30】 She laughed too fiercely, and saliva unintentionally dripped out. 【31】 "How to get hold of the confidential details? Qing Gu Valley doesn't participate, the old woman can't act — why not directly become a disciple of Heishui Du?" 【32】 With my unparalleled talent and beauty, I should be entrusted with important tasks, allowed to participate. No, no — being too obvious is bad; the dog-like scoundrel rotten to the point of oozing pus, these clues would surely make them want to ambush the road; later, constant bribery failures would let others steal the advantage, suspicion would arise, and I'd be doomed — 【33】 【Dominion over Water Beasts: Cui Mu Jiao E, Mo Hu Jiao, Gang Gang Crab Wang, Jin Chi Tian Wu, Ling Jiang Tun Huang, Shen Long, Chi Long Ju, Man Xing Sen Luo — 】 【34】 — 【35】 【Consumable: 9,450,000 Ze Jinghua, 10 points of River Dominion, 60 points of River Favor, to evolve Mo Hu Jiao into Hu Mo Wang.】 【36】 【Hu Mo Wang: Splits ink to form realms, swims freely, alters mountains and waters】 【37】 【Consumable: 740,000 Ze Jinghua, to grow Jin Chi Tian Wu.】 【38】 【Jin Chi Tian Wu: Born bearing Jin Shi poison and slaughter, refining a hundred toxins while condensing essence, killing to save the world.】 【39】 【Consumable: 690,000 Ze Jinghua, to grow Gang Gang Crab Wang.】 【40】 【Gang Gang Crab Wang: Dwells by nurturing earth veins, nurtures earth veins and self alike, mutual nourishment and symbiosis.】 【41】 【Ze Jinghua: 7,560,000】 【42】 Ze Jinghua fills the Inside Inside Ze Ding, black as an endless sea, slowly undulating, tide heads rippling with hidden light, striking the ding walls, recoiling into beautiful spray. 【43】 On the sea surface are various-colored heavenly and earthly vital airs; beneath the surface are essence-gathering, inwardly condensed dew seeds. 【44】 Communicating with the Inside Inside Ze Ding. 【45】 After inspiring the holy maiden, Liang Qu examined each water beast's evolution needs one by one, rubbing his hands. 【46】 One must earn ze jinghua, and also know how to spend it. 【47】 7,560,000 ze jinghua — unprecedented wealth in a single surge exceeding six million; he had only obtained this number on the Dragon Pearl before, when he was propped up by the jiao long and iron-head fish to run, got it and spent it immediately, never having time to accumulate; now there's the illusion of having spent six-four-eight, plus a first-time recharge doubling, so much money he doesn't know how to spend it. 【48】 Ze Ling full, wanting to use it but can't. 【49】 What remains most worth investing in, without doubt, is dominion over water beasts — after specific-direction cultivation, planting, breeding, heavy industry — 【50】 Each has its own specialty industry, returns abundant. 【51】 Which to invest in? 【52】 Currently under his command, A Fei is truly unmatched, a upper-boundary great demon far ahead. 【53】 Then the Third Prince, "Cannot Move" middle boundary. 【54】 Further down, the main water beasts are all lower boundary. 【55】 But in combat power, due to certain "historical legacy" issues, the ancestral sect's gifts, accumulated over generations, have caused the upper-boundary A Fei to be unable to overcome the middle-boundary Third Prince. 【56】 The Third Prince's combat power relies on nurturing mirage qi; ten great demons have already been fully nurtured, shifting from quantity to quality, racing wildly along the path to single-head middle-boundary mirage-beast great demons; in the future, no need for pairwise fusion — all can be ten fully matured great demons. 【57】 Liang Qu himself lacks sufficient dominion degree; he cannot give the bottleneck-phase A Fei hope for a counterattack. 【58】 After a round of screening. 【59】 This time, the primary evolution targets are Awei, Quan Tou, and Long Binglin! 【60】 "Awei is undercover in Southern Jiang, responsible for the upcoming interception; first evolve to middle boundary, strengthen normal cultivation reverse nourishment, let Li Xianghan taste some sweetness, so she works earnestly — one tenth of creation great medicine gives tenfold vigor, just cultivation too fast — "

Her heart pounded hard in her chest.

"Hua."

Enticing words echoed in her ears; the night's cool breeze stirred the ends of her hair.

She looked back again.

The moonlight was bright and clear; tree shadows swayed gracefully.

The surging tide within her body receded like the morning sea; the "Beguiler" vanished without a trace.

A hundred segmented limbs rose and fell, climbing; the golden-red centipede let the mice wrap it up and burrow back into the silk velvet quilt. In the bronze brazier, ice mint burned inward, curling white smoke, releasing a mist that invigorated the Gu insects. Awei lay leaning to the side, inhaling and exhaling clouds.

Li Xianghan snapped back to her senses.

"Quick quick quick, Big Yellow, grind ink! Middle Gray, paper! Little White, brush! Hurry hurry."

"Heiya."

The mice bared their incisors, let out a loud cry, then crisscrossed and leapt like the wind.

Before long.

The gray mouse hugged the sky-blue slender-neck wide-belly porcelain bottle, pouring clear water; the yellow mouse hugged the ink stick, pushing and pulling hard. The ink stick mixed with clear water, gradually staining into black ink, dyeing its paws black, spreading along the fur gaps up to its lower legs.

Li Xianghan bent over the desk, writing furiously with her legs crossed, her raised front paw bouncing up and down, striking the crossbar incessantly. In her eyes, brilliant light shone.

"One point, three months, a whole meridian four points, figure it all out, that's a whole year! Hehehe, striking it rich, striking it rich."

For the new Tusi to shake Great Shun, it's absolutely impossible they'd only contact one Demon King; conservatively ten or more, among them a small portion moved to act, only then could they interfere with Great Shun's governance of the Yellow Sands — truly casting a wide net to catch a big fish.

As long as she figures out half of them, five Demon Kings, five whole routes ————

Five years!

Five years' time, Jiao Dragon-level feedback, enough for her to advance to the Hunting Tiger peak. By then she'll be the Southland's thirty-five-year-old Entering Zhen Xiang Saintess. No, as long as Liang Qu keeps descending, no need to wait till thirty-five; half a year per realm, thirty-three, thirty-four!

Looking across the entire Southland, that's also an extremely dazzling existence.

Before Prince Huai Liang Qu, what was Great Shun's youngest Entering Zhen Xiang breakthrough record?

Seems it was someone named Bai Guangyi, thirty-one years old, hasn't reached Jiao Dragon even today.

But mainly because Great Shun's founding is still recent, only sixty-some years, only just produced this one. Former Great Qian had thousands of years, had younger ones, seemingly twenty-six or seven, but that was long ago. Southland Nine Villages don't care; Southland commoners have no memory of it either. After all, the current great enemy is Great Shun.

Thirty-three to thirty-one!

The gap has already shrunk considerably small; she'll surely leverage this to pull another wave of resources.

Fighting spirit, ignited!

"Hehehe, slurp slurp."

Li Xianghan inhaled sharply, raised a hand to wipe.

Laughed too hard; saliva accidentally dribbled out.

"How'd she get the classified details? Green Bamboo Valley doesn't participate, the old woman doesn't act. Why not just go apprentice to Black Water Poison?

With my unparalleled talent and beauty, I should be entrusted with important tasks and get involved. No no, too obvious. The dog thing is rotten to the point of oozing pus; it definitely wants to ambush for these clues. Always failing at bribes, getting intercepted, suspicion will fall on me, then I'm done for ————"

【Command Water Beasts: Emerald Wood Jiao Crocodile, Ink Tiger Jiao, Golden Crab King, Golden Wing Heavenly Centipede, Spirit River Dolphin Emperor, Mirage Dragon, Red Dragon Colt, Vine Star Forest Luo ————】

————

【Can consume 9,450,000 Water Marsh Essence, 10 River Dominance points, 60 River Favor points, to evolve Ink Tiger Jiao into Tiger Ink King.】

【Tiger Ink King: Splash ink into a realm, swim freely hidden, change mountains and rivers.】

【Can consume 740,000 Water Marsh Essence to grow Golden Wing Heavenly Centipede.】

【Golden Wing Heavenly Centipede: Born bearing Jin Shi poison sha, refines a hundred poisons yet tempers essence, kills to save the world.】

【Can consume 690,000 Water Marsh Essence to grow Golden Crab King.】

【Golden Crab King: Dwells on earth veins, nurtures earth veins and nurtures itself in turn, mutual nourishment and symbiosis.】

【Water Marsh Essence: 7,560,000】

Water Marsh Essence filled the Marsh Cauldron, pitch black like a boundless sea, slowly rising and falling. Wave crests rippled with dim light, striking the cauldron walls, curling back into beautiful spray.

Above the sea surface are Heaven and Earth Long Qi of various colors; below the surface are Dew Seeds with radiance restrained within.

Communicate with the Marsh Cauldron.

After motivating the Saintess, Liang Qu reviewed each water beast's evolution needs one by one, rubbing his hands.

Must know how to earn essence, more importantly how to spend essence.

7,560,000 essence, an unprecedentedly wealthy war chest. Only once before had he seen a figure over six million — on the Dragon Pearl. Back then he was propped up by the Jiao Dragon and Ironhead Fish and ran; got it and used it up, no time to save. Now he has the illusion of having whaled a 648 pack with first-recharge double bonus, so much he doesn't know how to spend it.

Marsh Spirit at perfection, wants to use but can't.

The most worthy investment left is undoubtedly the Command Water Beasts. Through specific directional cultivation — planting, breeding, heavy industry ————

Each has its own specialty industry, rich returns.

Which to invest in?

Currently under his command, A Fei is unrivaled, far ahead as an upper-realm Great Demon.

After him, Third Prince, "Cannot Move," middle realm.

Further down, the main water beasts are all lower realm.

Yet in combat power, due to certain "historical legacy" issues, Laozu Sect gifts, generations of accumulation, upper-realm A Fei can't beat middle-realm Third Prince.

Third Prince's combat power relies on Mirage Qi cultivation. Ten Great Demons already fully nurtured, transforming from quantity to quality, sprinting toward the path of a single-headed Mirage Beast middle-realm Great Demon. In the future, won't even need pairwise fusion; all ten can be perfected Great Demons.

Dominance points Liang Qu doesn't have enough for himself; can't give bottleneck-stage A Fei hope for a counterattack.

A round of screening.

This time the main evolution targets are Awei and Fist and Long Binglin, these three!

"Awei undercover in Southland, responsible for the upcoming interception. Evolve to middle realm first, strengthen normal cultivation feedback, give Li Xianghan a taste of sweetness so she works hard. One point of creation elixir, ten points of vigor. Just cultivation too fast ————"

Liang Qu noticed a problem.

Awei's time from lower to middle realm was too short—only a year and a half, nearly matching Zhang Longxiang's speed, making him stand out awkwardly in the Southern Frontier.

The water beasts could actually advance on their own; they consume medicine, they consume great medicine, and aside from extracting water marsh essence, they can still absorb medicinal power, yet they appear completely dependent on essence, as if lacking cultivation talent, solely because their advancement speed is too fast.

Liang Qu's cultivation over more than ten years has already become a unique wonder under heaven; scanning through history, only one legendary tyrant—whose truth is unknown—can be found.

What talent could compare to that?

Most of the water beasts under his command also followed him at the same time.

If the water beasts were a unified race with national disputes, they would likewise speak of auspicious omens; breaking records, Awei and the others could all be rolled out for grand promotion, especially the fists—Liang Qu's cultivation duration, fist size, not even having passed puberty.

It's just that before Liang Qu became a master of Entering Zhen Xiang Sect, the water beasts beneath him didn't show off much before people; after the Flood Dragon Queen, his own strength explained everything.

The one who truly understands should be the Frog King, who has fully witnessed Awei's growth.

Li Xianghan merely hunting tigers, with high attention, is still insufficient to bear the responsibility.

"Wait a bit, wait a few months, maybe a couple of years—not too outrageous, and I've kept the Insect Valley Festival's Longevity Qi reward. Once Li Xianghan converts Longevity Qi into resources and feeds it to Awei, we can save a lot of essence. So, it's decided—you two!"

Fist! Long Binglin!

Fat Fist Heavy Industry, grand earthworks—the fist is a crucial component in the assembly; its talent can greatly absorb earth's rigidity, allowing Awei's ink-spitting renovation to achieve twice the result with half the effort, very important, not merely a sidekick.

Strengthen it, speed up resolving the Qinggong Bay affair, to avoid disturbance in the Southern Frontier, lest long nights bring many dreams.

Long Binglin, one of the dragon people who has followed Liang Qu the longest, was chosen for no special reason.

【Consumable: 84,000 essence】

Eighty-four thousand, sprinkle water casually.

Qinggong Bay, black ink swirling, Da He Li turns its flat tail, the Water Surveillance Overseer.

As an undercover white ape agent of the flood dragon, eating the flood dragon's activity funds, yet captured by the Jade Qilin, the flood dragon's undercover white ape agent, again receiving a second share of funds—actually a body of loyal bones, loyalty unspeakable, earnestly cracking down on corruption, the fat fish spitting black mist, slowly sinking the land for several li around.

The fist group gathers, dwelling at the bottom mineral veins, absorbing earth's rigidity, digging out all soil and ore "infected" by the black mist, suddenly feeling the spiritual link jump with joy, extending eye stalks, eight feet stretching and contracting, shattering rock layers, shaking off a body of mud and mist, rushing straight into the waterway.

The fat fish can't make heads or tails of it, waving its long whiskers, asking if the fist will return for dinner; if not, it will have to eat two portions today.

The fist swings its large pincer, vanishing without a trace.

Bubbles disperse, a yellowish-brown sand trace floats in midair, slowly dissipating.

The whiskers scratch their head, delighted at double dinner tonight, harboring the thought to run farther with the fist, the fat fish continues working.

Boom!

Boom!

【Water Marsh Essence: 6,779,000】

The golden cocoon shatters, bubbles bubbling up.

Long Binglin half-floating in water, extends his palm, grips the fist tightly.

The water flow is seized into a vacuum, emitting the sound of silk tearing.

A surge of mighty power erupts; he incredulously gazes at the second heavenly palace within his body, and beneath it, the qi sea expanding to sixty times its size, his heart filled with astonishment.

This is far more enjoyable than cultivation pain!

A dreamlike experience, and upon waking, he is already a grand master.

No wonder I often watched Awei, the Third Prince, and Awei fighting, discerning loyalty from treachery, executing traitorous ministers—

Splash.

The qi wave explodes.

The fist raises its giant pincer, folding at a ninety-degree angle.

Commander!

Liang Qu's eyes brighten.

Evolving again, the fist grows another third, eight feet like spears, each strong, the giant pincer sharp and keen, flashing cold light, iron-blue radiance bursting forth, overall round, covered in fur, appearing broad and substantial, security overwhelming.

The white shell on the chest surges with cold, hard luster, no different from metal, quite like two large pectoral muscles; the iron-blue armored back edges bear small spines, the uppermost left and right have curved small horns, ferocious and deadly, increasingly domineering and mighty.

Among the water beasts, the most domineering are Awei and the fist—both armored types.

Not the handsomeness of a small clam dragon, but the metallic cold hardness favored by males.

Face!

If only I could bring forth a fist clan, that would be nice.

Usually engaged in grand earthworks, on key festivals, also able to serve as an honor guard—

Seeing the fist beside him raise its pincer and fold, likewise having just advanced, Long Binglin feels awkward, truly unable to adapt to the atmosphere the fat fish brings; he kneels on one knee, clasping loudly: "Myriad thanks, Water Lord, for your blessing!"

"Diligent and responsible, bearing hardship and resentment—this is what is due; why such fuss?" Liang Qu helps Long Binglin up, "Moreover, the capable bear more work; today comes first as reward, second, indeed to entrust you with a task."

"Then I beg the Water Lord to command!"

"No need to be so solemn—just go to the North Sea, inquire a bit, see what the Jade Qilin is up to."

"Jade Qilin?" Long Binglin exclaims in surprise.

"Well, mainly there are two points of confusion; you should know the Frog Lord's talent for avoiding misfortune and seeking fortune."

"Naturally, everyone in the Jianghuai Great Marsh knows, no beast unaware; in demon beast times, the Eight-Armed King still fell short, the Great Demon Queen, unmatched under heaven."

"But the Frog Lord stole the Jade Qilin's treasure."

Long Binglin didn't understand: "Did the Frog Lord go to the North Sea not because you, Water Lord, sent him?"

"You haven't grasped it—I let the Frog Lord help search for treasure in the North Sea to save twenty million in expenses, not to let him steal from anyone's treasury, to settle grudges.

Since the Frog Lord chose to grow webbed feet, the benefits gained are ninety-nine percent greater than the losses incurred, thus proving the Jade Qilin doesn't truly care about the cold jade's presence or absence; usually it's just a mere pillow, discarded if lost—yet—"

Long Binglin suddenly understands.

"Then it's because the Jade Qilin let A Fu take on the role of undercover performer, making a fuss over nothing?"

"Exactly." Liang Qu nods, "It either should have come directly to me to seek justice, or let me pay compensation, yet it chose this way. Why must it act as an undercover agent against me and the flood dragon? Here lies self-contradiction: if the Jade Qilin truly valued the cold jade, compensation would be impossible, turning into a great enmity, again conflicting with the logic of the Frog Lord growing webbed feet to steal treasure—"

Long Binglin's expression turned solemn: "The Jade Qilin is actually in opposition to my lord!"

"Yes." Liang Qu clasped his hands behind his back, "Currently, only this reasoning can explain it clearly, because Ren Jiu is opposed, the Frog Lord naturally has no burden in extending his webs, lice multiplying causes no itch, and he might even be proactively provoking the Jade Qilin to warn me; since they are opposed, there are conflicting interests, so it seizes the opportunity, intending to place aquatic creatures around me and the Jiaolong, but I do not understand—"

"The Jade Qilin is far away in the North Sea, and has had no prior dealings with the Huaijiang, so why would it be in opposition to the Water Lord, you, Jiaolong?"

"Yes, I need to clarify this matter."

Long Binglin's expression turned grave: "I understand now."

"Haha, Binglin, relax, don't be so bitter and vengeful, the Jade Qilin is formidable, I am not a pushover either, I might not be able to defeat it, but it won't come to a one-sided rout, you should find some time to inquire about the Jade Qilin's past experiences, its relations with demons and such."

Especially, whether it has ever been associated with the Whale Emperor, if not found, it doesn't matter, we already have precautions, remember, do not take risks with dangerous matters, human life is more important than anything else.

Whale Emperor—

A heavy burden of a thousand jin, Long Binglin drew a deep breath.

"Understood!"

"Ah wu ah wu!"

Small fish piled up into mountains, continuously sliding down from the peak, spreading out, Fu Yu sat down on his buttocks on the ground, both fins flailing wildly, gulping down large mouthfuls, the storm rushed in, the blue fish demon beside him sweated profusely.

Suddenly.

—

A fist floated on the water, leapt and thrust, flying swiftly closer.

Fu Yu was greatly startled, looked left and right at the two small hills, opened his big mouth, and swallowed the small fish mountain on the right in one gulp, his fins covering his mouth.

Until the fist arrived, Fu Yu hurriedly embraced the fish mountain on the left, mumbling indistinctly.

"Yours has already been eaten by me, this is mine."

Xie Feng, joyful at the happy occasion, waved his giant pincers, departed generously.

Feedback turns divine, add a night shift!

The fat fish grew increasingly strange, watched the fist depart, swallowed the large fish in his mouth down his belly, in a daze, felt that the other was somehow different.

"What a heavy aura, the fist crab is truly extraordinary in transformation. I said how come, originally just left, it was a breakthrough." The blue fish demon exchanged glances.

"Pfft!"

"Big fish! Ferocious-toothed general big fish! Alas, why did you spit it all out? Is today's food not to your taste? Come quickly, fish."

"The River God manifests his power, the River God manifests his power!"

By the riverbank, the grass leaves gradually turned yellow, the common people devoutly knelt in worship.

Sharpening the knife does not delay chopping firewood, Chui Qing and Gen Hai completed their promotions, Liang Qu strengthened in all aspects, holding Chui Qing and Gen Hai, water control efficiency greatly increased, as if there were a small half hour, all spent waiting for Heposuo to finish preparing the two banks' evacuation and dredging.

Receiving the map delivered by Si Nan, Liang Qu and Xu Yuelong, Ran Bi Shi, who came from the Huaidong Heposuo to support, together with the veteran clerks who had served locally for seven or eight years, discussed from which direction to expand a new tributary, to irrigate farmland, and incidentally test the 【Drawing the Tail to Paint the River】, just then, the situation changed, white clouds gathered.

Si Nan was astonished, thinking it was Liang Qu's doing, then immediately noticed Liang Qu's solemn expression, similarly staring at the white clouds.

Silver bottle shattered, water splashed and burst.

The white clouds gathering at the situation thickened to a certain extent, as if a reservoir opened its gates, pouring and cascading, flowing downward from the ground.

White clouds fell upon the eight directions of the fields, rising toweringly from the center into a colossal cloud giant!

Si Nan retreated half a step.

Xu Yuelong and the others who had received the Whale Emperor all straightened their faces solemnly.

The cloud giant performed a salute with clasped hands: "Cloud Giant Yun Gou, pays respects to the Huai King! Formerly, the Huai King declared upon first entering the Martial Saint realm, still unaware of the world's vastness, unaware of what treasures exist, His Majesty inquired, unaware whether, after one year, there could be any ideas?

If there is leisure, His Majesty also wishes to invite the Huai King to the Whale Emperor's palace for a meeting, to witness the vast structure of the Eastern Sea, the splendid beauty of myriad fish."
