Chapter 262 Sailing, Three Forces

A few days later.

On the surface of the Endless Sea, a huge fleet was slowly advancing.

In the middle of the fleet, there was a giant ship that was extremely luxurious. It pushed away the waves and moved forward.

This fleet belonged to the Harmony Prince Duan Chaofeng.

Now, they had already set off from State Wansheng, riding the wind and waves to the overseas archipelago where the Night Beast roamed.

Xu Ning was also on this giant ship with Duan Chaofeng. The sky in the distance was dark, thunder and lightning were rumbling, and a storm was brewing.

However, when the raindrops landed on the giant ship, they were repelled by an invisible membrane.

With it, the hull and deck of the giant ship were not wet at all.

There were many void realm disciples on the deck, some patrolling, some looking into the distance to observe the situation.

They set off at almost the same time as Mo Lan’s fleet, but the two ships took different routes, so they did not encounter each other on the way.

“Xu Ning, I remember you are not from State Wansheng?”

At this moment, Duan Chaofeng walked out of the cabin and came onto the deck.

They stood at the bow of the ship, looking at the waves in the distance.

“Yes, I’m from abroad.”

Xu Ning was standing behind Duan Chaofeng.

In addition to him, Zhang He, Zhuo Weisong, and three other faces stood next to Duan Chaofeng.

These people were all Duan Chaofeng’s trusted aides.

“Heh…”

Zhuo Weisong showed a mocking expression when he heard Xu Ning came from abroad.

In his opinion, State Wansheng was the center of the martial arts world, and people from outside State Wansheng were regarded as bumpkins by Zhuo Weisong.

“When you crossed the Endless Sea and came to State Wansheng, the trip was probably full of dangers.”

Duan Chaofeng’s tone was full of concern.

This made the people around him a little envious.

“It was a close shave. Although there were some difficulties, we all successfully crossed the sea in the end.”

Xu Ning responded.

Whoosh!

At this moment, a huge wave slammed into the transparent barrier of the giant ship. “Hmm?”

Duan Chaofeng’s eyes twitched. “Zhang He, is there something underwater?”

“A mid-level dao realm sea demon beast.”

Zhang He sensed it ahead of time and responded.

Zhang He was in the dao realm sixth stage core transformation realm, and he was the second strongest person among the people who went out to sea this time.

The strongest of them was Dong Ji, a dao realm seventh stage master transferred from the Harmony King’s to Duan Chaofeng’s side.

However, this Dong Ji was a senior. Although he was also on the giant ship, he was not with them. He was alone in the cabin.

As soon as he finished speaking, a huge fishtail suddenly emerged from the bottom of the sea.

Bang!

The fish tail slammed into the sea, raising huge waves that were dozens of meters high.

The fierce impact disrupted the formation of the fleet.

Even the medium-sized ship that was leading the way was knocked off course. “Zhang He, go deal with it!” Duan Chaofeng ordered Zhang He.

If they let this demon beast in the sea continue to torment them, their giant ship would be fine, but the other ships of the fleet would be in danger of capsizing. There were not many masters on the other ships. They were all just followers sent to search for the Night Beast. “Yes, Your Highness!”

Zhang He accepted the order.

Afterwards, he jumped off the giant ship.

Zhang He stepped on the sea surface and flew quickly.

“Ha!”

With a shout, Zhang He flapped his robe and dived directly into the water.

Zhang He was courageous. He dared to enter the water and fight against the demon beasts in the sea.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The fleet began to slow down, and the sound of explosions came from the water ahead.

Waves surged one after another on the surface of the sea, creating circles of white edges.

Obviously, the fight between Zhang He and the demon beast under the sea was extremely fierce.

After about half an hour, the sea surface began to calm down.

Whoosh!

Zhang He’s figure emerged from the bottom of the sea. With a few steps, he flew up and returned to the deck of the giant ship. “Done, Your Highness.”

Zhang He was still covered in dust, and there was no trace of water on his clothes.

“Your strength has improved again.”

Duan Chaofeng smiled and said, “How far are you from the seventh stage?” When Zhang He heard this, he responded, “At least five years, at most thirty years.” “Okay!”

Duan Chaofeng laughed. “There will soon be a high-level master next to me!”

“I wish Senior Zhang He a breakthrough as soon as possible.”

Xu Ning also said at the side.

Although years, decades, and centuries were still considered long for Xu Ning, it was nothing to these dao realm masters.

The advancement time mentioned by Zhang He was not considered long at all.

After Xu Ning said this, the others echoed what he said.

Only Zhuo Weisong had a cold expression.

Duan Chaofeng also noticed Zhuo Weisong’s reaction, but he didn’t say anything. In fact, Duan Chaofeng didn’t like Zhuo Weisong.

Duan Chaofeng only accepted him as a trusted aide because of his father, Zhuo Cengyun. When Duan Chaofeng was young, Zhuo Cengyun was sent by the Harmony King to teach him martial arts.

Otherwise, Duan Chaofeng would have already transferred Zhuo Weisong away.

Without the underwater demon beast’s interference, the entire fleet returned to their previous formation and began to move quickly.

“The clear sky region is not far ahead. Once we reach the clear sky region, we can bathe in sunlight.”

Duan Chaofeng smiled, and the others echoed what he said.

Although they were all dao realm masters who did not have high requirements for their environment, their long term habits made everyone wishing they were traveling under the clear sky.

The fleet continued to advance.

There was no day or night.

Two months went by just like this. On this day, everyone appeared on the deck of the ship.

But this time, there was a skinny middle-aged

man.

He had a beard and his eyes narrowed as he looked into the distance.

There was no aura of a powerhouse coming from this person, but Duan Chaofeng, Zhang He, Xu Ning, and others next to him did not dare to underestimate him.

Because this middle-aged man was the high-level dao realm seventh stage master, Dong Ji.

“The area where the Night Beast appears is right ahead.”

Duan Chaofeng said to Dong Ji.

Duan Chaofeng’s tone was respectful.

“Mmm…”

Dong Ji nodded. “This Night Beast is extremely good at hiding its aura and sneaking around. Even for me, it is difficult to locate its aura and determine its location. Therefore, you have to coordinate the people accompanying you and let them search this island.”

“If they find any traces of the Night Beast, they should immediately send out a signal so that we can arrive as quickly as possible.”

“Everything has been arranged, Senior Dong, don’t worry.”

Duan Chaofeng said.

Xu Ning stood aside and looked into the distance.

There was more than one stretch of coastline in front of him.

This was an archipelago. The sea was separating islands from islands.

The Night Beast did not live on a specific island, so it could appear anywhere in this area.

“Pick an island to disembark first, we will search one island after another.”

Duan Chaofeng said to the guard leader.

Although they had a lot of manpower, it was still difficult to spread out several teams and search.

Moreover, Mo Lan’s people must have also arrived. There would inevitably be conflict between them.

Therefore, gathering people together and investigating each island was the most suitable method.

Bang! Bang!

Finally, they reached the shore. The people on the ship also began to disembark in an orderly manner.

‘I finally stepped on land…’

Xu Ning sighed.

However, although they were on the sea, the giant ship was very stable, similar to when they were on land. It did not suffer much turbulence.

“This island is still under the clear sky region…’

Xu Ning looked up. There was still sunlight.

Half of this archipelago was in the clear sky region, while the other half was under dense dark clouds.

“Pick a suitable place to camp and rest first.”

Duan Chaofeng ordered, “Arrange for the Master Tamers to be protected in the middle of the camp.”

“Yes!”

The guards of the mansion responded.

The Master Tamers were the key to this operation.

Their unique beast taming skills and the demon beasts they controlled were all very helpful in searching for the Night Beast.

Afterwards, the group began to move.

After half a day.

On another island far away from Xu Ning’s fleet, another fleet landed onshore.

These people were naturally Princess Mo Lan and the others.

‘I wonder if Duan Chaofeng’s group has arrived…

After getting on the island, Mo Lan thought to herself.

After asking around, she also learned that a fleet of the Harmony King Mansion had also left the sea just as she was leaving for the sea.

After making some deductions, Mo Lan knew that the person who planted spies around her was Duan Chaofeng.

His goal this time was probably the same as her own: To capture the Night Beast.

“Tell everyone to rest here.”

Mo Lan ordered the people around her, “At the same time, station sentinels on the shore. If you see Duan Chaofeng’s group approaching, report it immediately.”

Mo Lan was a little afraid of Duan Chaofeng.

At this moment.

Far away from the islands, a big fish was swimming towards the islands.

On the back of the fish sat several figures.

They were all wearing gray robes that covered their bodies.

Woosh!

A sea breeze blew by.

And one person’s gray hood was blown away.

An old face was revealed.

This person was Lie Ying, the man who had requested Xu Ning to refine pills.

“Lie Ying.”

The person sitting in front of the fishback tilted his head slightly.

“Master.”

Lie Ying was very respectful to this person.

“You are a Master Tamer, so it’s up to you to search for the Night Beast.”

The man who was called master by Lie Ying said gently.

“Master, don’t worry.”

Lie Ying said, “I will definitely try my best to find the Night Beast.”

“Mmm…”

The master nodded in satisfaction. “Thank you. Whether you succeed or not, I will give you generous gifts in the future.”
