Chapter 275: Landing on the Island
Under Shi Quan's piloting, it was not long before Sea Soul Beasts began to appear around the Qianlong.
The surrounding Sea Soul Beasts swam past them as if they did not see a ship passing by their side.
This was naturally due to the interference of Shi Quan's powerful Mental Power.
Sailing in the sea was undoubtedly dull; once the excitement of the group faded, everyone began to cultivate one after another.
The hull of the Qianlong was very stable, so it would not disturb everyone's cultivation.
Days passed one by one, and the Qianlong continued to travel quietly beneath the sea, always keeping within a range reachable by sunlight, yet able to avoid the influence of sudden weather changes on the sea surface.
Except for taking a bit more time to detour around the Demon Whale Sea Area, the journey was very smooth.
In the early morning, the sea surface was still calm and beautiful, with green waves rippling.
Only on the distant horizon did a black dot appear.
The Qianlong slowly surfaced, and Shi Quan looked at the black dot in the distance, then looked at the sea chart in his hand, "Ahead is Sea God Island."
"Do you feel it?" Shi Quan looked at the blue radiance all around and said slowly, "Do not forget the other name of the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, Haichenzhixin; only in the middle of the ocean can it unleash the true power of the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud."
"You will understand in a moment." Shi Quan controlled the Qianlong to sink, slowly diving toward the deep sea.
"No." Shi Quan shook his head, looked at Gu Yuena, and continued, "To avoid unnecessary trouble, the next part of the journey must rely on Lingling."
"Alright, let's go out." Shi Quan smiled slightly, "We need to walk the rest of the way."
A flash of blue light, and the Qianlong was instantly enveloped within it; the brilliant blue radiance emitted by the Hanhaihushunzhao instantly illuminated everything around them.
Hearing this, the group was a bit excited and began to look around one after another.
"Me?" Ye Lingling asked in confusion, "Xiao Quan, what do you mean?"
"This is?" Feeling the power coming from the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, Ye Lingling was a bit stunned.
"Okay!" Ye Lingling nodded in agreement, and as she spoke, her brow lit up, and the shining blue Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud had already landed in her palm.
"Xiao Quan, then what are we waiting for, let's go straight over!" Dugu Yan said excitedly.
Thud!
A low sound came; having sunk about two hundred meters, the Qianlong had already landed on the seabed, and everything around was as dark as night.
"Lingling, release the Hanhaihushunzhao." Shi Quan looked at Ye Lingling.
"Walk?" The group looked at Shi Quan, unable to accept the meaning of his words for a moment.
The further down the Qianlong went, the darker the surrounding light became; when the depth exceeded one hundred meters, the ocean outside had already become pitch black.
"You will know once you go out." Shi Quan was the first to walk out of the cabin.
The group followed closely behind, and until they walked out of the cabin and truly stood on those damp and even somewhat soft corals on the seabed, they still could not believe that everything before their eyes was real.
They were just standing on the seabed like this.
"Xiao Quan, why do we have to do this?" Li Meili asked curiously.
"Mom, the area around Sea God Island is guarded by a large number of island-protecting Divine Beasts, the strongest of which are already Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts. If we continue to take the ship over, we will be attacked, and Lingling's Hanhaihushunzhao has the ability to turn invisible and repel water. With this protection, we can walk out from the blockade of these Sea Soul Beasts and enter Sea God Island."
"Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?" Li Meili was startled and said with some worry, "If something goes wrong on the seabed, wouldn't we all be drowned?"
"Mom, what nonsense are you talking about?" Shi Quan said helplessly, "You have to trust your son's strength, and if your son isn't enough, there is still Gu Yuena; she is even more powerful than a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast."
"Actually, you could have just sailed the ship over; if that Great White Shark Sea Soul Beast really came, I would just use my deterrence," Gu Yuena said.
Shi Quan shook his head, "Unless absolutely necessary, Gu Yuena, you had better not expose yourself. After all, it is the Sea God's territory; being cautious doesn't hurt."
"Alright, everyone follow Lingling's footsteps, let's go." Shi Quan waved his hand, signaling everyone to follow.
Under their feet, there were beautiful corals everywhere, extremely gorgeous under the blue light of the Hanhaihushunzhao. Of course, this was only the situation they saw from inside the Hanhaihushunzhao; from the outside, it was still pitch black here.
Traveling on the seabed is much more difficult than on land. The seabed is uneven, even giving people a feeling of rolling mountains. Fortunately, the group's strength was not weak. Even if they encountered very difficult places, they could still move forward quickly as if walking on flat ground.
Gradually, the group felt the terrain of the seabed rising, and they understood that Sea God Island was almost here.
"What is that?" Zhu Zhuqing's gaze narrowed slightly, only to see a huge white shadow speeding from afar, having already quietly swept past about twenty meters in front of them. Like a ghost in the ocean, it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Great White Shark Sea Soul Beast, one of the fiercest island-protecting Sea Soul Beasts," Shi Quan introduced, "Let's go, don't worry, it can't discover us."
The group's originally tense hearts also relaxed a bit.
Moving forward again.
Finally, the ground under their feet gradually turned into gravel, the surrounding vision became bright, and the group walked out of the sea step by step.
"We're out! We really walked out from the seabed," Yu Feng laughed out loud.
Under the sunlight, the beach was white and delicate, with sand grains like little crystals reflecting silver light. Upon arriving here, the first thing one felt was clarity; the sea and sky were one color, with seagulls competing in flight. The sky was azure blue, blue to the point of being high and distant, pure, and transparent.
Looking at the beautiful scenery of Sea God Island, the group could not help but be somewhat intoxicated.
"This place is so beautiful." Li Meili took Shi Jian's arm and leaned her head gently on Shi Jian's shoulder.
"Didn't Xiao Quan say we could live here? If you like it, we can just stay here," Shi Jian said softly.
"Okay!" Li Meili nodded.
"Lingling can retract the Cosmic Protection Shroud."
Ye Lingling nodded, a light shining in her eyes, and the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud that had been protecting them had already quietly returned to the depths of her brow. From the outside, their group appeared as if they had appeared out of thin air on the beach, their bodies revealed as the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud was retracted.
The group took a few breaths of the refreshing, moist air, and a slightly startled voice came from the forest in front of the beach.
"Who is it?" Accompanied by a low shout, seven or eight figures suddenly darted out from the woods and appeared in front of the group. These people had different appearances, but they had one common characteristic: the clothes on their bodies were outfits similar to martial attire, in pale yellow.
"The guides have arrived," Shi Quan whispered with a smile on his lips.
