Chapter 3398: An invitation to the island (1)
An Alchemist on the ship let out a long sigh, his tone carrying a touch of luck.
our luck is really bad this time. We actually encountered an ancient creature and even tried to intercept the fleet!
Another cultivator said with an expression of having just survived a disaster.
“You’re wrong. This ancient creature didn’t deliberately block it. It should be attracted by the aura of the lamp oil.
That’s why this lamp oil can’t be used rashly. Once there are ancient creatures nearby, they’ll definitely be provoked.”
Upon hearing this explanation, the cultivators sighed in unison. They had not expected this to be the reason.
As expected, powerful items all had their own flaws. It was impossible to achieve perfection.
Due to the unexpected encounter with ancient creatures, the fleet had no choice but to use their trump cards to escape the crisis.
Fortunately, the ancient creatures were repelled. Otherwise, once the fleet was intercepted, the cultivators in Lou city would die without a doubt.
Although the hunting ships that were built with a lot of money could withstand the damage from super creatures, they could not withstand the attacks of ancient creatures.
Once the hunting warship was destroyed and the cultivators of Lou city couldn’t save it in time, they were doomed to be swallowed by the sea monster.
This time, the sea trip would also be a trip of life and death.
Fortunately, the danger had passed, and the forbidden Sea above them had disappeared. Although it was still dark, the suffocating feeling of danger was gone.
He didn’t need to worry about sea monsters falling from the sky.
The cultivators of loucheng city took a short rest and immediately checked their losses and repaired the warships.
This was not their first time venturing deep into the ocean, so they were not lacking in experience. Although the battle earlier was intense, it did not cause much damage.
In the end, it was Lou Cheng who was rich and generous. He built a fleet at all costs, which was why he was not afraid of the attacks of ordinary super creatures.
This kind of high investment method was actually to be responsible for one’s own property and also to ensure the safety of the cultivators in Lou Cheng.
The more one invested when forging equipment, the higher the safety factor, and the lower the probability of loss.
This was a principle that everyone knew, but it was a pity that it might not be possible.
After experiencing the previous danger, the cultivators of Lou Cheng were much more vigilant and kept their eyes on the surrounding sea.
After travelling for a while, the leader of the fleet gave an order for the cultivators of loucheng to start hunting sea monsters again.
Everything was the same as before, and there seemed to be no difference.
However, Tang Zhen was very clear that the fleet of cultivators in loucheng definitely had a target and wouldn’t sail randomly.
The silver-horned spirit Lizard King obviously had a special use, but it still hadn’t been used yet. This was enough to explain the problem.
If the fleet was only hunting sea monsters, they would not need to waste a lot of time and could stay in the sea area where they were before.
He didn’t need to take such a huge risk and go deep into the unknown sea.
To the cultivators of loucheng, this Forbidden Sea was actually very familiar. However, the accident this time caught many of them off guard.
Perhaps due to the restraint of discipline, the cultivators of Lou Cheng were always very cautious when they talked.
He would never talk about things that he shouldn’t talk about.
Therefore, until now, Tang Zhen still wasn’t clear about where this fleet was heading to.
However, he had enough patience to wait for the answer to be revealed.
Fatty became happy because Tang Zhen was refining another pill bait. He would be able to capture even more silver-horned spirit Lizard Kings.
As for other things, fatty couldn’t be bothered. He was happy as long as he could catch sea monsters.
As the fleet continued to move forward, the scenery of the forbidden Sea began to change. It became like a bright River of Stars.
In this Forbidden Sea, from time to time, one could see colorful gargantuan creatures, like schools of fish and jellyfish, swimming past.
These balls of light weren’t illusions. They were life forms that truly existed in the forbidden Sea, an extremely special form of energy.
Although they existed in the forbidden Sea, they would not cause any harm to the cultivators of Lou Cheng, including the sea monsters.
After entering the new Sea area, it was obvious that cultivator Lou Cheng’s expression became more relaxed.
It was as if they were certain that this Sea area was safe enough and they didn’t need to worry about the sea monster’s attack.
The bright and colorful environment diluted the oppressive atmosphere, and many cultivators began to talk and laugh.
A melodious singing voice could be heard from the fleet in the distance.
The alchemists once again gathered together. They were refining pills and discussing at the same time. From time to time, they would also ask Tang Zhen for advice.
When they were having a pleasant talk, the high-level immortal general in charge of commanding the battle team came to the platform silently.
All the cultivators immediately stood up and saluted.
continue with your business. I have something to discuss with this person. The alchemists looked at each other and seemed to understand their leader’s purpose. They nodded and retreated to the side.
“What do you think of our loucheng?”
The leader didn’t waste any more time and went straight to the point. It was obvious that he didn’t want to waste too much time.
they’re powerful enough, far more powerful than ordinary cultivator organizations.
Tang Zhen’s tone was calm. Even though he knew the other party’s intention, he still did not change his expression.
“Are you willing to join our city?”
With the first question as a foreshadowing, the leader immediately threw out the second question. He wanted to see how Tang Zhen would react.
“Join loucheng?”
Tang Zhen seemed to be a little hesitant about this question and did not directly answer the fleet Commander.
since you’re so hesitant, we can postpone this matter. We can continue to discuss in detail after you’ve made up your mind.
Although the commander asked Tang Zhen, it didn’t mean that he wanted him to join Lou Cheng immediately.
He was just giving Tang Zhen a signal to let him know about this matter and to let him know that Lou Cheng had the intention to recruit him.
If Tang Zhen wanted to join Lou Cheng according to the normal process, it would definitely not be so sloppy and easy.
The second matter was the other party’s main objective.
“Do you know why we urgently need the silver-horned spirit Lizard King?”
From the beginning of the cooperation, the other party didn’t tell Tang Zhen the use of the silver-horned spirit Lizard King. It was the same for the other cultivator organizations.
Tang Zhen was also very curious about this matter.
Of course, Tang Zhen also had some speculations. It was just that he was unable to verify them. This moment should be the time to reveal the answer.
“Could it be that these silver-horned spirit Lizard Kings are also a special type of pill used to deal with certain monsters?”
Tang Zhen replied. He had thought about this matter and felt that this was the most likely.
The commander nodded gently. He did not feel particularly strange that Tang Zhen was able to guess the truth.
However, Tang Zhen only knew the general idea. The more specific content was the secret of the various large organizations.
“The silver-horned spirit Lizard Kings are indeed bait. Since they’re of great use, the more the better.
In fact, there’s a special Island in this Forbidden Sea. That’s our destination, and the silver-horned spirit Lizard King is going there.
Your strength is extraordinary, and if you are willing, you are fully qualified to participate in this operation.
As long as you participate in the operation, you’ll have the opportunity to land on the island and obtain enough benefits.”
The fleet Commander seemed to feel that the temptation was not strong enough, so he added, ” there are actually many super powerhouses on the island with unbelievable strength. If you can get the appreciation of one of them, you can definitely get unexpected benefits.
Tang Zhen’s eyes moved slightly when he heard these words. After which, he nodded gently.
“If that’s the case, then I’ll do as you say!”
