Chapter 247

~8 min read 1,573 words

A group of boats sailed in the vast and boundless sea.

Approaching dusk, the sky was gloomy, the air was extremely evil and cold, thick frost appeared on the boats, and the Primordial Dan Realm cultivators of various sects had their cultivation suppressed by the strange aura on the sea, trembling slightly from the cold.

And the Qi Sea Realm and Qi-condensing Realm cultivators below were trembling non-stop, simply sitting down one after another, practicing to resist.

Many people subconsciously looked at the "behemoth" boat in front, and were shocked to find that the "cat-faced man" in the cabin was sitting cross-legged, and had even taken off his coat, looking very hot.

"Is this guy pretending to be mysterious and grandstanding?" Ye Hongxue sat on the bow of a middle-grade boat, practicing while wrapped in a thick cotton-padded jacket.

"Hard to say, after all, he bought so many things!" Liu Yu's voice was a bit shaky.

Niu Wanli patted the side of the boat: "Move closer to the large boat!"

More than a dozen disciples behind who were controlling the boats immediately manually rocked the oars, sticking the middle-grade boat to Heng Xian's behemoth.

When they got close, they suddenly sensed a trace of warmth drifting down.

The group looked at each other.

"The cold-avoidance pill from the grocery store?" Liu Yu asked.

"Presumably so!" Niu Wanli said, "It's really much warmer."

Ye Hongxue waved to the other boats around.

Another middle-grade boat and ten low-grade boats approached.

Yu Qiuyi stood on the bow of the middle-grade boat and asked: "What's wrong?"

Before finishing the sentence, they also sensed the warmth, "Cold-avoidance pill?"

Liu Yu nodded: "That's right! This cat-faced man is too cunning, he prepared so thoroughly!"

Du Qiyue raised their hand to feel it: "Fire element roasting, like the bright sun in August, this cold-avoidance pill is indeed remarkable!"

Shen Qiong hesitated for a moment: "Shall we go up? Rob him? Although the cat-faced man has many methods, it seems his realm is not high, and he shouldn't have formed a Dan!"

Niu Wanli pointed to the hull: "After the boat starts, at least three layers of ancient restrictions are activated. Touching them means death for a Primordial Dan expert!"

The group was speechless, simply sitting down and gathering around that trace of warmth to keep warm.

Heng Xian's "behemoth" suddenly became everyone's safe haven.

The "boat fleet" swayed and sailed forward. On the sea, waves slowly rose, and colder chilliness rushed over from afar bit by bit, and an invisible suppression tightly "locked" everyone.

At this time, not to mention that the Qi Sea Realm and Qi-condensing Realm cultivators couldn't fly with swords, even the Primordial Dan Realm cultivators couldn't fly off the boat.

They suddenly understood the old man's words: "Three Thousand Ice Sea, evil energy rushing to the sky, sinking hair and trapping mist, immortals cannot pass!"

A strange sea where even hair and mist can sink, who can fly across?

Just at this moment,

The cabin door on the "behemoth" opened, and the "cat-faced man" walked out.

"He's out!" Someone below shouted in a low voice.

"See what he's going to do?" The group was focused, looking over tightly.

They saw the "cat-faced man" leisurely hang a windproof palace lantern on the left side of the cabin, illuminating the sea surface for more than ten zhang, and hung a string of fire-red bells on the right side of the cabin,

and then returned to the cabin, taking out an evil-avoiding pill and placing it on the head of the bed.

Yu Qiuyi said in a deep voice: "Eternal lamp, demon-driving bell, and evil-avoiding pill. It's almost dark, lighting a lamp is understandable, but what do the demon-driving bell and evil-avoiding pill mean?"

The nun Yuanyao pondered for a while: "Could it be that some evil thing is coming?"

The group looked at the sea area around them, and Liu Yu said: "Hurry and hang up our demon-driving bell!"

Du Qiyue took out the "demon-driving bell," looked at the dozen or so boats, but there was only one bell, and there were too many boats, so it was really hard to choose, so they simply hung it on the bow of their boat.

At this time, Ye Hongxue suddenly pointed to the distance: "Waves are coming!"

They saw giant waves of dozens of zhang high from all directions fiercely slapping over, and the entire sea surface seemed to have suddenly boiled.

"Hurry and use the cold iron chain to lock the boats together!" Yu Qiuyi shouted.

Among the sect disciples, many had cold iron chains in their storage bags. This was a countermeasure discussed in advance, so they immediately took them out and fixed the dozen or so boats from head to tail.

Just as they finished fixing them, the giant waves had arrived, roaring like demons, crazily surging.

"Boom—"

The dozen or so boats reached the crest of a thirty-zhang wave in an instant, and the next moment they turned sharply downward, falling into the abyss of endless spray.

The feeling of rapid ups and downs was shocking to the mind.

However, the "behemoth" in front sailed steadily, and the waves couldn't shake it at all.

Yu Qiuyi and the large group of people felt a trace of envy in their hearts, then practiced to suppress the hull and maintain balance.

In the behemoth, Heng Xian sat cross-legged, looking at the giant waves outside, while tasting small wine and side dishes, very comfortable.

Only occasionally looking at the "small boat fleet" that was rising and falling outside.

This strange sea is not peaceful. I don't know how many people will die outside. Whether Ye Ling'er and Xu Wei can survive is hard to say!

The key is that he is also powerless. With his cultivation, wanting to control the boat to save people in the wild waves is harder than ascending to heaven.

Sure enough, whatever he thought of came.

Almost not long after his thought arose, the demon-driving bell suddenly rang.

Heng Xian was immediately alert and looked outside the cabin.

They saw strange red octopuses suddenly appearing in the waves, blood-red, with blue light-spotted tentacles twisting in the sky, each tentacle holding a human head, "ga ga ga" weirdly laughing, penetrating the giant waves, faintly spreading over.

The scene was very terrifying!

Except for the "demon-driving bell" on his own "behemoth" and the "demon-driving bell" on the middle-grade boat of Yu Qiuyi, Du Qiyue, and the others, which made these "human-headed octopuses" avoid them a bit,

all the other boats were within the range of attack.

For a time, the sect disciples scolded constantly, spirit swords danced, and magic treasures erupted with dazzling light.

The "human-headed octopuses" didn't have strong vitality, and they were killed one by one, their tentacles cut off, falling densely like rain.

Blood-red ink dyed the nearby waves red.

However, this not only didn't repel them, but instead attracted more and more "human-headed octopuses" with the blood water. Looking around, the entire sea surface was like a mountain of rice, all "human-headed octopuses."

Heng Xian found that he might have a bit of trypophobia, so he simply lowered his head and didn't look.

Outside, there were constant weird cries and angry scolding, but the major sect disciples were, after all, major sect disciples. Twenty or thirty early-stage Primordial Dan experts were no joke. Of the twelve boats, none had an accident...

They resisted until the early morning hours, when the "human-headed octopuses" didn't retreat, and another kind of monster appeared—

Humanoid, without human skin, the whole body slightly transparent, strange evil things with blood-red eyes, which could shuttle through the waves and boats, flying back and forth.

The sect disciples were caught off guard, and instantly more than a dozen people were hit. Those monsters crawled on their backs, gently sucking at the back of their heads, and their brains and essence were all sucked away. They didn't even have time to scream before falling into the sea.

Seeing more than a dozen disciples die, Yu Qiuyi, Niu Wanli, and the group were furious, immediately sitting down, consuming magic power, driving their Golden Dans, and erupting with ten thousand zhang of light.

"Hum—"

The Golden Dan light was incomparably domineering, instantly clearing the surroundings of the boats, and corpses floated all over the sea surface.

Whether it was the "human-headed octopuses" or the humanoid monsters, they all stayed far away!

In Heng Xian's "behemoth," a few humanoid monsters also appeared at this time, but they were illuminated by the light of the evil-avoiding pill, and amidst screams, they turned into a puddle of wet slime.

Heng Xian approached in surprise, only smelling a sour, foul stench that was hard to describe, not knowing what kind of ghost thing it was.

He looked at the sect disciples in the giant waves outside and the Golden Dan light, and couldn't help but shake his head. Magic power couldn't be recovered at sea, and consuming Golden Dan to avoid evil was ultimately not feasible.

The "boat fleet" broke through the wind and waves under the Golden Dan light and continued to sail forward.

The "human-headed octopuses" and "humanoid monsters" suddenly disappeared.

Just at this moment, a strange monk appeared on the waves in front, wearing a brocade kasaya, with Buddha light filling the sky, yet revealing an indescribable evil nature.
