In the sea.
A small boat braved the wind and waves as it sailed into the distance.
Qin Shujian stood at the bow of the boat with his hands behind his back. The wind only blew his clothes slightly.
Along the way.
Many boats were overtaken in an instant.
"Damn, it must be a small electric motor!"
"Driving so fast, it must feel good when it hits!"
"F * ck —"
Some players who were rowing the boat strenuously looked at the small boat that flew past them. After being stunned for a few seconds, they couldn't help but complain.
Compared to the other party.
Looking at the people who were rowing the boat, it was simply two extremes.
Although a cultivator could use True Essence to drive the boat after breaking through to the True Martial Realm.
But doing so would consume too much True Essence.
And it wouldn't last long.
As for the speed, it might be faster, but it definitely wouldn't be much faster.
Like Qin Shujian, who passed by with a whoosh, it was simply blinding their titanium dog eyes.
Different from the complaints of the players.
Some local cultivators had serious expressions as they looked at the boat that had become a small black dot. They couldn't help but say, "I wonder which expert entered the sea alone."
"To be able to use True Essence to drive the boat so fast and ensure that the boat doesn't break, his strength is at least at the Prominent Divine Realm, or even the God Martial Realm."
"Prominent Divine Realm, God Martial Realm, it's really fascinating!"
Hearing this, some people also sighed with emotion.
In this world, cultivators who could cultivate to such a level were not rare, but there were definitely not many of them.
In the past, the appearance of such an expert would attract the attention of many people.
On the other side.
Qin Shujian had already sailed the boat and completely left the range of the dock.
At this moment, he sat on the boat and took out a small tea table from his storage ring. Then, he took out a tea set and placed the Osmanthus Spirit Tea that he had already prepared on the tea table.
With a light wave of his sleeve, a small stream of water rose from the sea and gathered towards the teapot.
In the process of flying, all the impurities in the water were removed.
The entire process.
It was completed in less than a breath.
Qin Shujian held the teapot in his hand. In less than a breath's time, the tea inside had already boiled.
— —
After tossing and turning for a while, Qin Shujian tasted the spirit tea and looked at the surrounding scenery. The sea view was also considered a scenery, so he was in a good mood for a while.
As a great cultivator of the Deva Realm.
He should have been flying.
However, Qin Shujian had no intention of flying.
Firstly, it was still a problem whether there were islands in the sea. It was fine to fly occasionally, but if one were to fly for ten days to half a month, even if it would not consume much of one's Divine Sense, one would still feel nauseous.
Therefore, Qin Shujian chose to buy a small boat for his own use.
In any case, using True Essence to drive the boat would not be much slower than flying in the air.
This time, Qin Shujian was prepared for a long voyage when he entered the sea.
In his opinion, such a small difference in speed was not a big problem.
"Moreover, flying in the air isn't as comfortable as I am now!"
Qin Shujian couldn't help but laugh. Sipping tea and looking at the sea view, wasn't that much better than flying?
Even driving a small boat would consume some energy, but for a Celestial, multitasking was a trivial matter.
Looking at the blue sea surface.
Qin Shujian recalled everything about the sea area.
From the information he had obtained, the sea area was very large, but no one could give an accurate answer as to how large it was.
In addition to that.
The dangers in the sea area were no less than in other places.
Among all the dangers, there were only two greatest dangers. One was the ferocious beasts, and the other was the forbidden land formed by heaven and earth.
The so-called ferocious beasts were actually monsters.
They were just called monsters on land and ferocious beasts in the sea.
As for how strong the ferocious beasts were, one could refer to the Endless Mountains for details.
And it was different from the Endless Mountains.
All year round, there would be human experts going into the Endless Mountains to kill some powerful monsters and suppress the development of monsters.
But the sea area was different.
Almost no human would deliberately enter the sea area to kill some ferocious beasts.
After so many years.
The sea was not full of ferocious beasts, but there were also many hidden ferocious beasts.
Among these ferocious beasts.
There were even existences that could threaten Celestials.
If his strength had not broken through to Celestial, Qin Shujian would not dare to set foot here easily.
In addition to the ferocious beasts.
It was the forbidden land formed by heaven and earth.
These forbidden lands were also commonly known as natural disasters.
Ordinary natural disasters couldn't threaten Celestials, let alone Celestials. Even a slightly stronger cultivator couldn't threaten them.
But the natural disasters in the sea area were different. Some powerful natural disasters could even make Celestials kneel.
In general.
The sea area was very dangerous. If one was not careful, one would die.
"The imperial court did not dare to send people to explore the sea area because they could not afford the loss. If too many human experts died here, it would not be a good thing for them."
"In the past, the human race was threatened by the Demon Clan. Today, the human race is facing the hidden dangers of the three continents."
"Before these problems are solved, the human race must preserve enough strength to deal with any possible emergencies."
"For tens of thousands of years, the sea area has not posed any threat to the human race. Even if there is something here, the imperial court will not easily provoke it!"
Qin Shujian recalled the rumors about the sea area and the human race, and he had a rough idea in his mind.
Humans were born with the impulse to explore and pursue the truth.
If there were no external threats, sooner or later, the human race would set foot on the vast sea.
But now was not the time.
For a long time, there had been a hidden danger lurking in the dark, forcing the human race not to be distracted in dealing with it.
It was also because of this that there was not much information about the sea area.
As for why Qin Shujian knew that the sea area had not posed a threat to the human race for tens of thousands of years.
It was because —
The information from even further back had already disappeared.
The lifespan of a Celestial was at most 7,000 years. Tens of thousands of years was enough for many Celestials to reach the end of their lifespan. As for the others, it was needless to say that they had died many generations ago.
For some things, it was understandable that they would disappear after a long time.
Qin Shujian did not have the intention to explore the vast sea area. He just wanted to confirm his guess and see if there was anything in the sea area that he remembered.
"If this is really the Dong Sheng Divine Continent, then Huaguo Mountain should exist."
"Of course, Huaguo Mountain might have sunk."
"Or not at all."
He wasn't sure if he was right or not.
But since he was here, there were some things that he had to clarify.
Not to mention exploring the true meaning of the world, Qin Shujian at least wanted to know what kind of world he was in. If possible, he also wanted to know why he was here.
He just wanted to know.
As for the way back, he did not think of looking for it.
Now was good.
He was strong, lived for a long time, and had a sect with hundreds of thousands of people. Wherever he went, he was "respected". Where else could he find such treatment?
The boat cut through the sea.
The ripples on the water gradually disappeared after the boat left.
Qin Shujian sat on the boat, looking at everything around him leisurely. In fact, his Spiritual Will had spread out and covered thousands of miles.
It was said that there were many ferocious beasts in the sea area.
As his Spiritual Will covered the area, he also found many weak auras.
These weak auras were only in front of Qin Shujian.
In fact.
Most of these auras were at the True Martial Realm. Some of them were at the Spirit Martial Realm.
However, Qin Shujian had not gone too deep into the sea. It had only been about half an hour since he had left the dock.
Half an hour.
Given the speed of the boat, it was enough to travel a few True Provinces.
"It seems that there are indeed many ferocious beasts. If the people of the East Pattern Prefecture were fishing, they would not have gone too deep. As for the sea near the dock, there are no ferocious beasts."
Qin Shujian spread out his Spiritual Perception, paying attention to the changes in his surroundings.
There were no ferocious beasts at the dock.
He did not need to guess to know that the experts of the Covering Sea Sect or the Imperial Court had exterminated those ferocious beasts.
After all, many people in the East Pattern Prefecture relied on the sea to survive. If the sea was full of ferocious beasts, then most of them would starve to death, and their lives would be extremely difficult.
However …
After traveling for a while, Qin Shujian also discovered a problem.
The Spirit Qi in the sea was much denser than in the East Pattern Prefecture.
"The Spirit Qi is so dense. No wonder so many ferocious beasts were born. However, does the density of the Spirit Qi mean that there are many Spirit Stones in the sea?"
Qin Shujian was slightly stunned.
Soon, he came back to his senses.
Spirit Stones!
Yes, there were many Spirit Stones in the sea.
Any Spirit Stones that appeared in the Human Clan would be collected by the cultivators.
The Human Clan was not involved in the sea, and the ferocious beasts were not very intelligent. Therefore, there must be many Spirit Stones buried at the bottom of the sea. Otherwise, how could the Spirit Qi in the sea be denser than in the Human Clan?
There were cultivators in the Human Clan, and ferocious beasts in the sea.
Everyone was rich in Spirit Qi, so no one was better than the other.
Qin Shujian was a little excited as this thought lingered in his mind.
This time, he mainly wanted to confirm his guess. However, if he could take the opportunity to fish for some Spirit Stones, it would be a good thing for him.
However, this was just a thought.
Qin Shujian did not really take action to search for Spirit Stones in the sea.
Although this place was far away from the dock, it was not too far away. If there were really Spirit Stones, the Human Clan might have dug them all out after so many years.
He could think of something.
Qin Shujian did not think that others could not think of it.
Whoever treated the people in the world as fools would be the biggest fool.
"There's no hurry. When we go deeper into the sea, there might be Spirit Stones. Although the density of Spirit Qi is not weak now, it's still far from the level of Spirit Stones."
Suppressing the thoughts in his heart, Qin Shujian drove the boat and continued to sail in the sea.
Whoosh —
The boat rode the wind and broke the waves, shuttling through the sea like lightning.
Boom!!
The sea in front of them suddenly became turbulent.
Powerful fluctuations spread out in all directions, causing the waves to surge as if a tsunami would occur at any time.
Qin Shujian put down the teacup and walked to the bow of the boat. He looked at the turbulent sea with his hands behind his back. His expression was as calm as ever.
The boat under his feet did not slow down at all.
At this time.
The waves rose up, and it was more than ten feet high.
Then, it slammed down heavily, causing a terrifying fluctuation.
When the surrounding ferocious beasts sensed the fluctuation, they all fled in all directions.
At the same time.
A series of shocking roars came from the sea.
Qin Shujian looked at the sea, and his vision directly penetrated the obstruction of the sea. He just happened to see two tall beasts fighting each other.
One was a giant ape-like beast.
The other was a giant tortoise.
The giant ape stood up, and it was more than ten feet in size. Every punch stirred up the sea.
The tortoise that was fighting with the giant ape had a greenish-black shell, and it was not smaller than the giant ape in size.
In its open mouth, there were sharp fangs, and the claws on its limbs were like steel needles. At first glance, it was not a character to be trifled with.
Between the two, it was unknown who was looking for trouble.
The battle between the two caused a lot of movement in the sea.
In Qin Shujian's perception, the strength of the two beasts was probably between the Airborne Realm and the Prominent Divine Realm, but he was not sure which level they were at.
Boom!!
A huge muffled sound came.
The giant ape's fist slammed heavily on the tortoise's shell. The terrifying force did not break the tortoise's shell. Instead, the tortoise bit the giant ape's body, causing a rain of blood.
The giant ape was in pain.
However, the pain did not make it afraid. Instead, it stimulated the fierceness in its heart. When the tortoise was about to retract its head, its broad palm directly grabbed the tortoise's neck and immediately squeezed hard.
A terrifying force erupted, causing the tortoise to suddenly bleed from its seven orifices.
However, the tortoise did not show any weakness. Its sharp claws desperately slashed at the giant ape. Its thick hair and hard skin were easily cut open by the sharp claws, and blood instantly dyed the sea red.
The giant ape roared in pain, but it did not let go of the tortoise's neck. Its other hand was madly hammering at the tortoise's head.
The two beasts were fighting.
Qin Shujian also saw it.
It looked like a simple fight, but it was a fatal attack.
This was the instinct of living creatures.
For these beasts with no intelligence, killing was carried out by instinct in their bloodline.
Those instincts.
It was deeply engraved in their bloodline by their ancestors who had been fighting day and night.
From the beginning of the battle until now, only ten minutes had passed.
Whether it was the giant ape or the tortoise, they had reached the point of life and death.
The giant ape's chest was badly mutilated, and one could vaguely see its beating heart. The seawater wanted to pour in, but it was blocked by a mysterious force.
As for the tortoise, it was not easy either. The giant ape's strength was incomparably powerful. Its head was badly mutilated, and even its brain juice flowed out.
But even so.
Neither of them intended to stop.
"This is a beast, more terrifying than the monster beasts in the Endless Mountain Range. If such a beast was thrown in the Endless Mountain Range, it could fight against three!"
In the end, Qin Shujian's eyes also became a bit dignified.
The strong were afraid of the stupid.
The stupid were afraid of the suicidal.
These two ferocious beasts gave him the feeling that they didn't care about their lives.
If it was the monster beasts, when the battle reached this extent, their instinct would drive them to retreat and return to their nest to lick their wounds.
But for the beasts.
Injuries, on the contrary, aroused their fierceness.
Qin Shujian muttered to himself, "Perhaps the difference between ferocious beasts and demonic beasts isn't just a matter of living in the sea and on land. There's also a difference in biological instincts. Ferocious beasts are much more savage than demonic beasts.
In just a short while.
The two beasts had reached the point of death.
Seeing this.
Qin Shujian no longer hesitated.
With a move of his divine thought, the terrifying power directly controlled the seawater and turned it into a big hand, pinching the two beasts.
The next moment.
The two beasts directly exploded.
A large amount of blood mist dyed the sea red. Two fist-sized crystal stones appeared in Qin Shujian's hand, and in the storage ring, there was an additional tortoise shell.
"Beast core."
Qin Shujian smiled slightly. The two beasts contributed two beast cores, which could be considered a gain.
The reason why he made a move.
It was purely to harvest the source of life.
After all, the two beasts were going to die no matter how one looked at it. It was better to die in his hands.
To be honest.
At Qin Shujian's level, it was rare for him to hunt ferocious beasts and demonic beasts.
Because there was no need for that.
For him, every level up now required at least tens of billions of life sources.
Unless it was a Celestial.
Otherwise, he was afraid that he would have to kill tens of millions of beasts of other levels to have a chance to raise his strength.
"However, there are no human cultivators in the sea. They are all beasts without intelligence. Maybe I can take this opportunity to harvest a wave of life sources."
Qin Shujian thought for a moment and a smile appeared on his face.
Normally, killing ferocious beasts would not yield much life force. However, if he used the Red Lotus of Delusion, he would be able to obtain more life force.
Putting away the two beast cores.
Qin Shujian also moved the tortoise shell in the storage ring slightly.
The tortoise shell that was ten feet long, which was the storage ring he was using now, belonged to Du Chengwu of the Fallen Moon Mansion.
Otherwise, it would not be able to put such a big thing.
He put away the tortoise shell.
This was because the tortoise shell itself was a high-grade material. Coupled with its huge size, its value was not much lower than that of ordinary ninth-grade materials.
Now, more than half of the Yuan Sect had been emptied.
It was always good to be able to replenish some.
After casually killing the two beasts, the smell of blood spread out and attracted many beasts.
However, Qin Shujian had already left his original position.
The sea was vast.
Now, he was not really deep in the sea.
Although Qin Shujian seemed to be traveling aimlessly now, with his Celestial perception, he had already formed a navigation route in his mind.
Because the sea had not been explored much by the human race, there were no navigation routes sold in the Great Zhao.
Even if there were, it would be some sea areas close to the human race.
These navigation routes were not of much use to Qin Shujian.
"This world should have a square sky and a square earth. In other words, if I keep moving forward, I will only reach the end of the world and will not turn back to the human race's territory."
"In that case, if I want to explore the entire sea, I will have to go back and forth a few times."
The Divine Senses of a Celestial were powerful.
But compared to the sea, it was just a drop in the ocean.
Now, according to Qin Shujian's point of view, it was a straight line forward. Instead, his Divine Senses spread out thousands of miles and constantly searched ahead.
In other words.
The straight line that Qin Shujian was walking was thousands of miles wide.
Whoosh —
The small boat cut through the sky and the waves at an extremely fast speed.
Unlike the calm sea in front, the sea where Qin Shujian was now was full of beasts killing each other. From time to time, waves would be set off. The smell of blood mixed with the smell of the sea water made people frown.
With the appearance of the small boat.
Some of the ferocious beasts that were fighting stopped in an instant and chased after Qin Shujian.
However, the speed of these beasts.
Compared to the speed of the small boat, they were much slower.
By the time they reacted, the small boat was only a black dot.
Boom —
A huge wave of thousands of feet suddenly rose, as if covering the sky and the sun, and smashed down heavily on the small boat.
Qin Shujian waved his sleeves, and a terrifying aura spread out, turning into an indestructible air wall that blocked the crashing wave.
The weight of thousands of feet of sea water was more than a million catties.
But even so, it could not do anything to the air wall at all.
"Disperse!"
Qin Shujian waved his hand again, and the crashing wave crashed back to its original position.
Rumble!!
A terrifying fluctuation spread out.
"Roar!!"
With an angry roar, a giant beast thousands of feet suddenly appeared from the bottom of the sea. It was an octopus that had been magnified countless times. Then, a black shadow rose from the bottom of the sea, setting off a large number of waves.
The next moment.
The black shadow covered the small boat, and the sky darkened in an instant.
Qin Shujian put away the small boat with one hand, and then his body expanded to three thousand feet in size, and he grabbed the falling black shadow with one hand. It was a tentacle thousands of feet long and hundreds of feet thick, and the force of its fall could easily destroy a mountain range.
But this force had no effect in front of Qin Shujian.
Grabbing the tentacle with one hand, Qin Shujian pulled hard, and the giant beast was directly pulled out of the sea by him, and then smashed heavily on the surface of the sea.
Qin Shujian took a step forward, and a mysterious force emerged from the seawater under his feet, supporting his body from sinking. His fist had already shattered the void, and landed heavily on the octopus' body.
One punch.
A bloody mist exploded from the octopus' body, and dark green blood dyed the sea.
"Roar —"
The octopus roared in pain, and countless huge tentacles frantically wrapped around Qin Shujian.
Qin Shujian grabbed several tentacles with both hands, and then pulled hard. Suddenly, these tentacles were torn in two, and the intense pain caused the other tentacles of the octopus to twist irregularly.
And he took this opportunity to continue to attack the other party.
A great battle.
In the blink of an eye, it erupted.
That terrifying force spread out, and some of the beasts that wanted to approach instinctively scattered at this time.
Whether it was Qin Shujian or not.
Or the aura of the giant octopus, it was not something these beasts could withstand.
Although the beasts did not have intelligence, they still knew when to fight and when to turn around and run.
Speaking of seeking luck and avoiding disaster.
The beasts were better at this than some humans.
