Chapter 533
"Li Yao, wait a moment." After the old patriarch finished speaking, there was no more sound from the seashell.
Shang Shang Yana walked to his side, looking at the seashell in Li Yao's hand.
She was quite curious now: what would a friend in the Abyss look like?
However, she didn't interrupt, just stayed quietly by his side.
Before long,
a voice of surprise rang out in both their minds simultaneously.
"Li Yao! We found it!"
"You are at Bee Bay Strait!"
Bee Bay Strait.
Shang Shang Yana took out her little notebook again.
Between the Barowika Continent and the Endless Sea,
she wrote down the name of the bay.
"The Brain-Eating Bee territory, how could you be there?"
"It's super dangerous!"
"The Brain-Eating Bees are a very terrifying group; even the top powerhouses of the Titan race wouldn't dare go and provoke them!"
"Li Yao, just stay by the seaside, don't run around!"
"It will take me about a week to get there."
Li Yao interrupted: "If we come to find you, in which direction?"
"Find me? That won't work!" Hearing Lingxin's voice sounded anxious. "There is a boundless sea of flowers between us. They don't move, but once you enter their territory, it's even more dangerous than the Brain-Eating Bees!"
"Taking a detour would be slower than waiting for me to come find you."
"What about by air?" Li Yao asked.
"By air?" Hearing Lingxin was stunned.
The patriarch spoke up: "Lord Li Yao, is it an Ark?"
"Yes."
The old patriarch was astonished.
He hadn't expected Lord Li Yao to have actually obtained such a rare treasure as an Ark.
"If Lord Li Yao is in a hurry, you could come to pick up Hearing Lingxin. With the Ark, there is no danger on this route."
"But please remember, when piloting the Ark, you must not exceed the cloud layer."
"Understood." Li Yao didn't ask why.
Previously, inside the Silver Tree,
he had warned Shang Shang Yana not to go higher than the clouds.
Although he hadn't sensed any aura,
above the clouds, a vague sense of inexplicable threat permeated.
It was as if something was warning him.
To be able to shield his perception and convey a warning—
there was no need to think;
the strength of that being must exceed his understanding.
"Then just follow the coastline, and travel in the direction the wind is blowing for eight thousand 'frown-fish' distances."
"Uh..."
What kind of distance unit is a 'frown-fish'?
Li Yao thought for a moment and asked, "Hearing Lingxin's height is about one meter. How many meters is one 'frown-fish'?"
The voice on the other end of the seashell paused.
Old Patriarch: "Five hundred meters!"
"So that's four thousand meters."
"Alright, I understand."
He hung up the seashell.
The two boarded the Silver Tree and set off again.
This time, they had a clear goal.
Shang Shang Yana didn't conserve energy.
The Silver Tree moved at full speed!
One hour later,
the golden-yellow beach gradually evolved into a dark green land.
It was the same scene he had witnessed when he first emerged from the Flame-Seat Crab.
The Silver Tree slowed down,
gliding slowly at low altitude along the coastline.
To survive, every member of the Floating Sea Spirit race possessed a special ability:
immunity to perception.
When he first met Hearing Lingxin inside the Flame-Seat Crab,
Hearing Lingxin had easily evaded his perception, and he only discovered Hearing Lingxin's existence when it appeared right in front of him.
Therefore, he could only search for Hearing Lingxin with his naked eye.
Hearing Lingxin's height might be less than a meter, or perhaps taller than a meter.
There was definitely a margin of error.
Once that error was magnified countless times,
they might be hundreds of kilometers away from the target location.
As a result,
the journey had only taken one hour.
Another hour passed before he saw a slightly reddish figure amidst a pile of dark green reefs.
Hearing Lingxin, who had come ashore alone, looked a bit apprehensive.
It hid behind a giant reef, a pair of small eyes cautiously surveying the surroundings.
The Silver Tree docked nearby.
Hearing Lingxin subconsciously wanted to flee,
but remembering that Li Yao was traveling in an Ark,
it stayed behind, observing cautiously.
Not until Li Yao stepped out of the cabin door
did the red glow on Hearing Lingxin's body instantly turn azure blue.
A tentacle extended from the water flow on its body, waving continuously in the air.
Without physical contact,
they couldn't communicate.
Li Yao walked over quickly.
Shang Shang Yana stayed at the cabin door, watching this floating stream of water.
Azure blue, very beautiful.
Is this Student Li Yao's friend in the Abyss?
Li Yao walked over.
Hearing Lingxin jumped onto Li Yao's head in one motion.
The water flow turned into an oval shape, just like a blue hat.
"Li Yao, you've become so much stronger!"
"Is it my imagination?"
"Probably not." Li Yao chuckled and brought Hearing Lingxin back to the Silver Tree.
Hearing Lingxin curiously examined the interior of the Silver Tree,
with the exact same expression Li Yao had when he first entered.
This was the legendary Ark!
Even the old patriarch had only heard of it in documents!
Passing through the passage tied together by tree roots, they took a floating leaf
to the lounge space above the cockpit.
Everywhere here were sofas made of leaves.
Li Yao found a place to sit down.
During the journey just now,
Shang Shang Yana had heard Li Yao say that Hearing Lingxin needed a water source,
so she had prepared a large water vat early on.
Shang Shang Yana carried it over and placed it beside Li Yao.
Hearing Lingxin's small eyes looked at Shang Shang Yana, then at Li Yao.
"She is a friend," Li Yao said.
"No wonder she's so good-looking!" Hearing Lingxin jumped into the water vat.
Two tentacles extended out, touching Li Yao and Shang Shang Yana respectively.
"Hello, Li Yao's friend, my name is Hearing Lingxin, I am also Li Yao's friend."
Shang Shang Yana covered her mouth and chuckled, imitating Hearing Lingxin's phrasing: "Hello, Li Yao's friend, my name is Shang Shang Yana, I am also Li Yao's friend."
"You can call me Xiao Na."
So, creatures of the Abyss aren't all that terrifying!
"Let's chat later." Li Yao got straight to the point. "Hearing Lingxin, I called you here because I want you to take us to the Lost Continent."
"If possible, I want to set off right now."
This time coming to the Abyss,
he only had two things to do:
bring back Xiao Bai,
and on the Lost Continent, hunt the monsters on the Life Tree to gain as much experience as possible!
And both of these things required going to the Lost Continent.
The situation on Blue Star was urgent now;
he had to get back as quickly as possible.
And Li Yao noticed that
when the Lost Continent was mentioned,
a flash of red representing fear crossed Hearing Lingxin's body.
