Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills.
Xiao Chen did not have a good way to deal with this Yan Zhe at the moment, so he could only continue acting with the other party.
Firstly, the Iron Horn Pirate Group was very powerful.
Yan Zhe's cultivation was even more unfathomable. He was at least a late-stage Star Venerate. Whether it was a Small Perfection late-stage Star Venerate, a Great Perfection late-stage Star Venerate, or a peak late-stage Star Venerate.
He knew nothing and could not feel it at all.
This was a terrifying enemy that could destroy the Black Cutlass in an instant.
Under his generous appearance, there was a heart as vicious as a poisonous scorpion.
It would be a huge mistake to be fooled by his appearance and think that he could just walk away.
He wasn't afraid of the other party acting, but he was afraid that the other party wouldn't be willing to act and would resort to forceful means.
That Xiao Chen really couldn't do anything about it. He could only allow himself to be slaughtered.
It was unfortunate to be targeted by such a person. The situation was much more dangerous than it seemed.
However, since he liked to act, it was exactly what Xiao Chen wanted.
For the time being, he would play dumb, pretend to be infected, pretend to be schemed against.
What the Black Cutlass and him needed was time.
Xiao Chen believed that as time passed, the balance of power would slowly tip in his favor.
Back at the Black Cutlass.
Elder Tang quickly asked, "How is it?"
Xiao Chen smiled and said, "It's okay, he refused."
"You refused? In that case, wouldn't we have misunderstood him? "Elder Tang was slightly surprised. The others were also quite surprised.
The corners of Xiao Chen's mouth curled into a mocking smile. "He's just playing hard to get. This person's methods are really extraordinary. However, it does not matter. We just need to put on a good show with him. I do need such help for the Scarlet Blood Pirate King's treasure. "
The chess game was unpredictable. Yan Zhe wanted to use Xiao Chen as a chess piece. Since that was the case, Xiao Chen might as well beat him at his own game and make good use of him.
"Come, let's go to the Ash Gray Sea!"
Using the Iron Blood Token, Xiao Chen successfully met the Pirate Hall's Hall Master, an old man with unfathomable strength.
The feeling he gave Xiao Chen was actually much better than Yan Zhe.
The Pirate Alliance was very mysterious. For it to be able to exist openly for so long, it definitely had many outstanding aspects.
If the Wolf King Jiang Hengchuan was the overlord of the Grave Sea on the surface, then this old man was the Grave Sea Monarch in the dark.
However, the Pirate Hall had always been neutral. It would never seek revenge for pirate groups or start a feud with the Divine Shield Army or sects. It felt like the Pirate Hall did not have a strong presence.
It was more like a large chamber of commerce that knew how to make money.
Anyone, even if they were not pirates, could trade treasures, purchase materials, and auction items in the Pirate Hall.
Furthermore, even if it was a disciple of a righteous sect who came to register as a pirate, the Pirate Hall would not ask about it, simply ignoring it.
His attitude was rather ingenious.
Even so, no matter how weak the Pirate Halls in the Grave Sea were, they would not be able to survive. The Divine Shield Army and the Blood Sword Army did not dare to target the Pirate Hall. This was a taboo.
No one dared to comply.
"Captain Xiao, are you sure you want to use the Iron Blood Token to head to the Ash Gray Sea? It is not good for you to go to the Ash Gray Sea with your strength. Why don't you wait a few more years? "
The old man gave Xiao Chen some face, not saying that only death awaited him if he went to the Ash Gray Sea.
He only said that it was not good and that he would go later.
"I've already made up my mind. Senior, please help me."
"It's not really help. The Iron Blood Token is issued by the Pirate Hall in the first place. I will follow the instructions of whoever holds the Iron Blood Token."
When the old man saw how determined Xiao Chen was, he did not say anything more.
The old man ferociously clenched his fist and directly crushed the Iron Blood Token.
"Whoosh!"
Boundless blood flowed out of the old man's hand. It was like a river of blood had appeared in his hand, pouring out blood continuously.
Soon, the blood piled up, drowning Xiao Chen, Xiao Suo, and even the Black Cutlass.
In the next moment, the blood turned into an unending stream of scarlet light soaring into the sky.
The scarlet light shot towards the sky above the Pirate Hall. Stars flickered above the Pirate Hall, and a formation appeared out of nowhere, absorbing all the scarlet light.
The light disappeared in a flash. Many people saw this scene but did not know what happened.
"Captain, they are going!"
The Iron Horn Pirate Group's people immediately called out. However, they were no strangers to this.
Yan Zhe showed a grave expression as he said, "Follow them."
Right after Yan Zhe spoke, an Iron Blood Token appeared in his hand, and he crushed it.
After a while, another beam of scarlet light soared into the sky, entering the mysterious Starry Heavens Formation above the Pirate Hall.
The Iron Horn Pirate Group followed.
Indeed, it was as Xiao Chen expected. This Yan Zhe would not remain indifferent to the Scarlet Blood Pirate King's treasure.
Furthermore, Yan Zhe would not let Xiao Chen's group escape Yan Zhe's grasp.
Back then, when Xiao Chen obtained that jade strip, he knew that this jade strip could let him contact the other party.
It could also let the other party know where Xiao Chen was at all times.
If Xiao Chen tossed it away, then Yan Zhe would know Xiao Chen's plan. Then, Yan Zhe would immediately use force to make Xiao Chen work for him.
Unfortunately, Yan Zhe was not strong enough. Even if he knew the other party's plan, Xiao Chen could not toss away the jade strip.
He could only beat Yan Zhe at his own game.
The moment Xiao Chen and the others were submerged in blood, they lost consciousness. When they reappeared, they were already dead.
When they reappeared, the Black Cutlass appeared in a new sea.
One of the seven great forbidden seas, the Ash Gray Sea!
"Captain, the seawater is corroding the first layer of defensive formations. It will not last for another hour."
"The level of space is too terrifying. A few of the internal components of the pirate ship have been crushed. If we do not think of a way to deal with this, the ship will disintegrate in half a day. "
"Captain, there is a ferocious beast swimming over in front!"
…
The moment Xiao Chen's voice landed, bad news arrived. Everyone had no time to appreciate the vastness of the vast Ash Gray Sea.
Xiao Suo was very busy. The entire Black Cutlass worked quickly, doing its best to keep the pirate ship moving normally in the Ash Gray Sea.
"Don't panic. According to the previous plan, the Black Cutlass should have no problem moving normally in the Ash Gray Sea."
Xiao Chen was strangely calm, calming Xiao Suo's somewhat anxious heart.
Xiao Suo nodded and said, "Right. It is just that we suddenly came to the Ash Gray Sea and need some time to adjust. We can deal with the other problems. However, that ferocious beast is somewhat problematic. "
Xiao Suo pointed to a strange bird that appeared on the water screen in the captain's quarters.
However, Xiao Chen smiled and said, "It came at a good time. The Immemorial Demon Soul Formation happens to need some nourishment."
Right after Xiao Chen spoke, Xiao Chen left the pirate ship with a few flashes.
"Whoosh!"
"What strong spatial pressure! The forbidden sea truly lives up to its reputation."
Xiao Chen could already move freely in the Grave Sea. However, when he arrived at the surface of the Ash Gray Sea, he felt pressure.
There seemed to be many invisible hands on the surface of the sea, pulling on Xiao Chen's feet and pulling him into the sea.
The surging seawater seemed to possess a demonic nature, deterring one from looking at it for long.
The seawater here was definitely much more terrifying than the seawater of the Grave Sea.
"Open!"
Xiao Chen shouted, and the Vital Qi in his body swam through his dragon veins. All the dragon bones in his body crackled, sounding like a terrifying dragon roar.
The moment Xiao Chen brought out his Small Perfection Divine Dragon War Body, he resisted all the pressure.
Xiao Chen looked into the distance. There was a huge scarlet bird with scarlet feathers covering its body. It was nearly one kilometer long.
"A Demon Blood Vulture!"
Xiao Chen's eyes lit up. He was somewhat reluctant to use it as nourishment for the Immemorial Demon Soul Formation.
Even in the Ash Gray Sea, such mutated beasts were extremely rare. They possessed a demonic nature and had strong growth potential, able to evolve continuously.
It would not be strange for several Demon Blood Vultures to evolve into existences like the Underworld Ghost Bird or the Dragon Shadow Condor.
The prerequisite was that the Demon Blood Vulture had to continuously absorb all sorts of demonic nature.
If Elder Tang managed to tame it, it would definitely become a great weight for the Black Cutlass.
When that Demon Blood Vulture felt Xiao Chen's gaze, it could not help releasing its demonic nature.
To think that an insignificant human wanted to tame it. He truly overestimated himself.
