.5.
Qiu San decisively issued a few orders.
"Have all the lookouts come out and release all the scouting pigeons. We must find out exactly what is happening within a hundred miles. At the same time, all the axemen and spearmen are to be on standby! No matter what danger we encounter, I demand that everyone must immediately repel all enemies! "
The green-robed servants hurriedly walked around the ship upon hearing this, loudly calling out for everyone to be on full alert.
Sensing the foreboding wind in the air, the sailors, servants, and soldiers on the steel ship did not dare to be negligent. They began to carry out orders in an orderly manner. The steel ship had turned into a huge war machine, exuding a strong aura of killing and biting coldness.
The cultivators on the deck were completely at a loss. They all looked at each other and waited for the situation to develop.
More and more cultivators in the ship heard the news and squeezed onto the deck to see what was going on!
After the sailors were on full alert, Liu Xuan, the leader of the servants, quickly separated the crowd and ran back to Qiu San's side. He reported to Qiu San with a nervous expression.
"President, a layer of faint red fog suddenly appeared a hundred miles ahead. Nothing can be seen inside it. It has covered the entire sea!"
"Hm?"
Qiu San nodded without batting an eyelid. He thought for a moment, and a trace of extreme fear flashed across the depths of his eyes. He seemed to have thought of something.
Clenching his teeth, Qiu San forced himself to maintain a calm expression. "How wide is the fog? What is the visibility? Can we go around it? "
"It is boundless. The entire sea ahead is covered by that red fog. Although the fog looks very faint, it is impossible to see what is inside. There is no way to go around it!"
Liu Xuan's voice was already trembling slightly.
Actually, Liu Xuan didn't know what this fog was either, but he instinctively felt fear and despair.
"I understand …"
Qiu San only pondered for a few breaths of time before a smile appeared on his face. He smiled and said, "Then let's turn around. Since we don't know what's in the fog, it shouldn't be a big deal. There's no need for us to get close. After all, there's a whole ship of people here. There's no need for us to take the risk … Pass down my order.
Qiu San's smiling face was no different from usual, but Chu Chen could feel the coldness and despair in his spiritual perception. At this moment, his spiritual perception had already fallen into an endless abyss.
His smiling face was just to appease the people on the ship. This feeling was like knowing that the ship was going to enter hell, but he didn't want to make everyone panic before entering hell.
"Guild Leader, are you sure we should return?"
At this moment, a tall and muscular figure walked out of the cabin. This man was dressed in red armor and had a valiant face. He was in his early forties and had a tall and straight figure. His face was covered in stubble, and he exuded the aura of someone who had experienced many battles. He was the captain of this steel tower ship.
He strode in front of Qiu San, his expression solemn. "Are we really going to turn back?"
"My goal isn't to turn back, but to avoid the red fog!"
Qiu San smiled faintly. "Who knows if the red fog is something ominous? Let's avoid it first."
Chu Chen faintly felt that he already knew the nature of the red fog!
Seeing that the captain was still hesitating, Qiu San spoke again.
"It's like this … The entire sea ahead has been sealed. We can only retreat. You've heard many legends about the Western Sea, right … There's a lot of nonsense. Let's not take the risk. It's not a big deal. We'll just avoid the red fog! "
Qiu San said casually. The captain first nodded, but then he suddenly paused, as if he had suddenly thought of something.
The corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch a few times. He wanted to say something, but was stopped by a look from Qiu San. He lowered his head sadly.
"I understand."
The captain nodded to himself and walked back to the control room in a daze.
Chu Chen's heart became increasingly uneasy. He probably knew better than the other cultivators on the ship what kind of person Qiu San was. He was a super expert from the Meteor Chamber of Commerce who guarded the Yin Mountain.
Now that they were in such a desperate situation, one could imagine how terrifying the red fog was!
Chu Chen looked at the sea. At this moment, the blue horizon ahead had been occupied by a faint red halo. The red fog was light and elegant, and it brought with it a strange wave that sealed the entire sea. It could already be seen clearly with the naked eye.
After a few breaths, the servant Liu Xuan returned to Qiu San's side, trembling with fear as he spoke.
"Speak." Qiu San's smile became more and more forced.
"The captain told me to tell Sir President that we … we can't avoid it … It seems that the fog has been affected by the sea breeze. Our rear has also been sealed by the fog … we've been trapped by the fog!!"
Chu Chen saw Qiu San's eyes darken, as if his heart had finally been shattered. He took a few deep breaths, and the smile on his face faded bit by bit.
"This is troublesome … we actually encountered something like this. I'm afraid we won't be able to avoid this legendary 'Blood Sea'!"
A deep voice rang out from behind the crowd. Chu Chen turned his head and saw a tall figure standing beside Qiu San with a solemn expression on his face.
He was dressed in white, his skin was slightly yellow, and he had dragon eyebrows and tiger eyes. He was the second strongest person in the group for this trip to the Western Wilderness, the Sect Leader of the Pure Sun Sect, Fang Rentang.
Qiu San didn't say anything. He knew that he couldn't hide the truth anymore.
When a charming female cultivator heard the two words' Blood Sea ', her beautiful face turned pale. "Sect Leader Fang, could this really be the legendary' Blood Sea '?"
"That's right. This is the legendary 'Blood Sea'."
Fang Rentang nodded solemnly, and sighed faintly. "This thing is incomparably strange. I didn't expect that we would encounter it. President Qiu, what should we do?"
Qiu San still didn't say anything. His face was expressionless, as if he had nothing to say.
Fang Rentang's pupils contracted, and he said in a low voice, "The Blood Sea … it's a legend. A legend that only exists in the Western Sea. To all cultivators, it's a nightmarish legend."
Among the group of cultivators, there were obviously many who had heard of the Western Sea's legend. Their eyes all became dull, and their bodies unconsciously trembled.
