The next morning, Shen Liuyun led the group to the port. There was only one ship there. It must be the Kun Ship.
The Kun Ship was shaped like a sand ship. It had a square bow and a square stern. The deck was spacious, the hull was small, and the freeboard was low. Only the stern was different. It was shaped like a Kun's tail, like a fin. It was about three hundred and fifty feet long and fifteen feet wide. There were oars on both sides of the hull. The most unique thing were the sails. Other than the bow and the stern, there were forty-seven sails. In other words, there were forty-seven masts. Even though it was retracted, it looked spectacular from below.
Su Xingyu couldn't help but frown. "There are so many sails. If we open them all, the hull will immediately fall apart. Is there a need to install so many?" With so many masts, there wasn't much space on the deck. If there was danger, it would be difficult to use them.
Shen Liuyun didn't explain and only said, "It has to be like this." Then she urged the group to board. All the supplies and water had been moved onto the ship by the Sea Race before dawn. A hundred Sea Race sailors were already on standby.
The group boarded in a line.
"Saintess." Qin Kong called Shen Liuyun. Although she was old, this beautiful woman who still retained her charm looked deeply at Shen Liuyun and said meaningfully, "Lady Saintess should know that this is the final time limit. You are already very clear about the situation of Sea Cloud Divine Palace. If the Divine Mother does not return, the sea race will be plunged into misery and suffering!"
Shen Liuyun said, "No matter what the result of this trip is, I will go to the divine palace to take the position of Divine Mother."
"Be careful. Come back soon." Qin Kong let them go.
Liumu Bingjian walked at the back. When she heard this, she thought, Is Shen Liuyun the reincarnation of the Divine Mother of Sea Cloud? She waited for Shen Liuyun to board and invited her to the side. "Miss Shen, accepting the position of Divine Mother means that your dharma body will be occupied. At that time, it will be hard to say if you will still be you. Why did you agree to them?"
Shen Liuyun looked up at the sky. Memories of the past appeared one by one. Her beautiful eyes were misty. "I think that people should be born in the right place. Actually, the Sea Race had given me a deadline of three years. Now that it had been delayed for another three years, what else could I be dissatisfied with? After saving Little Fan, I won't have any more regrets. "
When everyone arrived on the ship, they discovered that the materials used to build the ship were all extraordinary. Precious artifacts' radiance flickered everywhere. It must be Gu Haiyuan's doing.
The Kun boat set sail. The wind direction was just right. The captain was the sea race's Shi Shen. He stood at the helm and controlled the overall situation. He first ordered the sailors to raise twelve sails, and then they flew like flying fish.
Zhao Ting took Su Rongrong for a swim and came back. He exclaimed, "So it's a combination of many boats, so that each mast and sail can exist independently. This kind of skill is really ingenious. Even if an ordinary shipbuilder had the blueprint, he wouldn't be able to make it. Also, the material of these sails is probably made of the highest quality linen, airtight. There are talismans inside the masts, which should be tough talismans that prevent them from breaking. Moreover, the eleven masts form a whole, so even if they encounter hurricanes and tsunamis, they can calmly deal with them. "
"Wow!" Su Rongrong said in admiration. "Grandpa Zhao, you really know a lot. I have to look at you in a different light!"
"In my early years, I also ran a boat to make a living." Zhao Ting enjoyed it very much.
Next, the Kun boat followed the course recorded in the Jambu Annals. It left from the east to the west — the west meant the end of the Western Sea — and then turned north. But to the west was really too far. When there was wind, the twelve sails could move quickly. When there was no wind, they used the soul stone to drive the oars and oars. There were talismans on the corresponding mechanisms, and the medium that carried the talismans was also made of the highest quality materials. Otherwise, the Kun boat would fall apart before reaching the end of the world.
Even so, it still took them twenty months to finally reach the Western Sea. Fortunately, this was the territory of Sea Cloud Divine Palace, so there were no blind sea races or sea beasts that came to cause trouble. Then, they turned north.
They had to travel a hundred thousand li. Because they had to travel according to the navigation map, they couldn't use the Void Shattering Shuttle to travel through the Spirit Realm. The Kun boat was only three to five times faster than a normal boat, but much slower than the Void Shattering Shuttle. It traveled about three thousand five hundred li in a day, and it would take about a month to travel a hundred thousand li.
Yu Jun used an abacus to record the journey accurately. When it reached a hundred thousand li, he had Shi Shen stop and put away all the sails. On this day, the sky was clear, and there were no clouds in the blue sky. The warm sun shone on all things, and there were no signs of it darkening.
The sea was wide and flat, as if there were many paths leading to the heavens. However, they didn't know where the Evil Prison was.
Shen Liuyun read the Jambu Annals carefully, frowning in silence.
Liumu Bingjian looked into the distance and said, "Even so, we didn't leave the territory of the sea races. In my opinion, the Evil Prison is somewhere the sea races can't touch. Otherwise, Sea Cloud Divine Palace would have a record."
"Indeed." Yu Jun agreed. "I've been born for more than thirty years, and I've never heard of a sea region like the Evil Prison."
Su Rongrong smiled. "You're actually more than ten years older than me, but you don't look like one at all, little brother."
Yu Jun's face reddened. "Sister Rongrong, we sea races have a different way of calculating age. We need to be fifty-four years old to be considered an adult."
"If that's the case," Su Rongrong patted Yu Jun's little head with great interest, "You're now equivalent to a human around ten years old. Not bad, not bad. At such a young age, you've already taken on such a high position. Your future is limitless. You're only a little worse than me. "
"Oh …" Yu Jun's face reddened even more. He lowered his head and didn't dare to speak.
Su Xingyu said mockingly, "I'm afraid you've said it the other way around. Yu Jun is the successor of the High Priest in the future. In Sea Cloud Divine Palace, there's only one person above all others. Even if Phoenix Hall is on the same level as Sea Cloud Divine Palace, only Gu Qingyou is on the same level as him. You're just a little inspector, you're far from it. "
"You …" Even though Su Rongrong was eloquent, she couldn't find any words to refute him. She was even angrier that Su Xingyu had actually managed to call Phoenix Hall and Sea Cloud Divine Palace on equal footing. Her face was full of anger as she said, "What's so great about your Dragon Elephant Mountain? You still dare to call yourself righteous? Back then, you had a part in framing and killing Young Master Yan! "
This was a topic that everyone had always avoided, because once they started arguing about it, the implications of their hatred would be endless.
"Damned girl," Su Xingyu flew into a rage, pointing at Su Rongrong's nose and cursing, "You dare to spout venomous slander? What proof do you have for saying this?"
Su Rongrong sneered, not to be outdone, "Proof? Why did a Divine Domain expert of your Dragon Elephant Mountain die? Also, that Eldest Brother of yours was clearly saved by Young Master Yan from the Demon Realm, but he also participated in the framing. His conscience has truly been eaten by dogs! "
"You're seeking death!" Su Xingyu's eyes revealed killing intent.
Upon hearing this, Liumu Bingjian knew that the situation was bad. He hurriedly stepped forward to stop Su Xingyu, saying, "Alright, alright. Are you two natural enemies? In the last three months, you've already quarreled several hundred times. Even if you usually quarrel, you still have some restraint. Why are your words so heavy today? Let bygones be bygones for now. Give me some face. First find Brother Yan, then we can settle the score. "
"I'm not going to bicker with a girl who hasn't even fully grown her hair yet!" Su Xingyu said through clenched teeth, then angrily stormed off.
Su Rongrong disdainfully said, "Hmph, who's the one who hasn't even fully grown her hair yet? Childish!"
"Alright, Rongrong," Liumu Bingjian said helplessly, "Brother Xingyu admires that Eldest Brother of his the most and will not tolerate anyone speaking ill of him. You've really touched his reverse scale. The reason he can endure this is not because I stopped him, but because he has a kind heart. He really can't bear to harm a cute little girl like you. In the future, it's best not to bring up this topic again. "
Su Rongrong angrily said, "Who told him to look down on Phoenix Hall? Besides, what I've said is the truth! "
Liumu Bingjian said, "At least when Brother Xingyu heard that it was to save Brother Yan, he came without hesitation. Just because of this, you should at least give him some face. Just look at how protective Brother Eleventh is. Even he didn't say anything today. It's clear that he thinks so too. "
"Alright." Su Rongrong pursed his lips and said reluctantly, "Then I'll go cook something for him to eat, lest he holds a grudge against me." Then he left.
Liumu Bingjian let out a sigh of relief and looked at Liu Letian with a bitter smile. "Speaking of which, this Brother Xingyu isn't young anymore. How can he quarrel with a little girl like this?"
"Perhaps it should be called the Heart of a Newborn," Liu Letian said with a smile.
"Shi Shen!" Shen Liuyun suddenly shouted.
Shi Shen left the helm and walked to the side of the ship, silently waiting for his orders.
"Turn the ship around and reverse fifty steps," Shen Liuyun ordered.
"Yes." Shi Shen immediately left.
When the ship had retreated to a certain distance, Shen Liuyun jumped up and stood on the highest mast. He stretched out his hand, and the wind and clouds suddenly surged in the clear blue sky. Amidst the intense whistling sound, a large fish swam out of the clouds and plunged straight into the sea. As soon as the large fish entered the water, the surface of the water was under heavy pressure and surged in all directions. In an instant, the seawater rose into the sky in a ring shape. And in the center of the ring, a whirlpool grew bigger and bigger, and bigger and bigger. In the end, the force of the whirlpool turned the seawater into a tornado, connecting the sky and the earth.
Despite the size of the Kun Ship, it couldn't withstand the force and was sucked into the whirlpool.
"Remember to hold on tight, don't fall!" Shen Liuyun warned.
Su Rongrong was busy in the kitchen when she suddenly felt the ship shake violently. Under the great inertia, she flew off the ground and out the window. Her small body suddenly faced the great power of heaven and earth.
"Save … me …"
The hurricane tore at her body, quickly sucking her into the whirlpool. In a blur, she only saw a dark hole at the bottom of the whirlpool. She, who had never encountered such danger, felt shocked and frightened, and couldn't help but scream. However, her scream was too weak. Under the great power of heaven and earth, it didn't even make a splash.
Suddenly, she heard the unique "jingle" of metal. It sounded like a bell, but not like a bell. It sounded like the sound of metal being continuously disassembled and reassembled. It was very pleasant. Her body suddenly tightened, as if she was entangled by something. Then, she was pulled to the side of the ship and fell heavily on the deck. Her small body arched, and she coughed hard. Her face was pale and frightened. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a silver butterfly quickly disappear into the void.
"Rongrong, are you okay? You scared your Grandpa Zhao to death!"
Zhao Ting rushed over and helped Su Rongrong up. Su Rongrong's coughing gradually weakened. Her mouth flattened, and she cried, "Scared, scared me to death. Sob, sob, sob, I thought I was going to die …"
"Okay, okay, don't cry, don't cry …" Zhao Ting quickly comforted her.
Liumu Bingjian walked over quickly. Seeing that Su Rongrong was fine, he let out a sigh of relief. Then, he squatted down and put his hand on her back. He injected some vital energy into her to calm her down. Then, he sighed, "Look, thanks to Brother Xingyu's timely discovery, you would have sunk to the bottom of the sea."
"Is, is he the one who saved me?" Su Rongrong immediately stopped crying and mumbled.
"He saved you with the butterfly needle." Liumu Bingjian then said to Zhao Ting, "Mr. Zhao, take Rongrong downstairs to rest. Miss Shen has ordered the sailors to nail the windows."
