"How long have I been unconscious?"
The light in the cabin was warm and shone on Tai Yin's confused face.
Only a faint red mark could be seen between his eyebrows, and it would probably fade away soon.
"Torch Dragon opened his eyes once and closed them again," said North Xiang, who was sitting in the aft cabin.
His body was so large that he took up half of the cabin just by sitting there. The Unparalleled Halberd was so tight that he could not even straighten his legs.
This made the cabin, which was not very spacious to begin with, even more cramped.
Tai Yin was injured, so he could not squeeze Tai Yin, so he could only squeeze himself.
"One day and one night …" Tai Yin muttered. He checked his body and felt that he had recovered to his peak condition. He knew that North Xiang had saved him with precious medicine.
He closed his eyes and sighed. "What an amazing spear."
"Indeed, it exceeded my expectations," North Xiang said.
When he replied, he was wiping the halberd with a cloth.
The mighty and majestic man's movements were very gentle at this moment.
Tai Yin sensed for a while and opened his eyes. The image of the spear crossing the sea in his mind disappeared.
He was beginning to remember how he had been shot.
He asked, "How did we escape?"
North Xiang said calmly, "I lost the Huaisha Jade Annulus."
He was just stating a fact calmly.
He did not complain about Tai Yin being shot, nor did he comfort him.
He invited Tai Yin, so he accepted the consequences. That was all.
Tai Yin thought for a while and said, "Then we need to get a new Jade Annulus as soon as possible."
He did not feel dejected after being shot down by an unknown person. Instead, he started thinking about what to do next.
Everyone would win.
Everyone who was called "Tianjiao" had won countless battles since they were young.
Everyone knew how to face victory.
But not everyone knew how to face failure.
Sometimes, failure was the best way to test Tianjiao's strength.
"Yes. Otherwise, we won't be able to survive Heaven's Collapse and will be eliminated," North Xiang said.
Tai Yin asked directly, "Which one should we take?"
But in fact, both he and Xiang Bei knew that this question was meaningless.
In the end, the two of them didn't have many choices.
For example, Dou Zhao's Yearning Recitation Jade Annulus, Zhong Liyan's River Wading Jade Annulus, and Wu Ling's Thought Drawing Jade Annulus, there was no possibility of snatching them.
"Can you find Chu Yuzhi and Xiao Shu?" North Xiang asked realistically.
"That depends on fate." Tai Yin shook his head. "My Seven Star Compass can only store one trace at a time."
Bei Xiang understood.
Chu Yuzhi and Xiao Shu, who were publicly acknowledged as the weakest team, would definitely hide their tracks at the first moment. It was impossible for them to easily reveal themselves.
As for Tai Yin's Seven Star Compass, it had stored traces of Jiang Wang. Later on, it also stored traces of the Calamity Beast King.
Calamity Beast King …
He suddenly remembered something.
He couldn't help but ask, "When you met Jiang Wang before, was he alone? Was Zuo Guangshu already gone by then? "
"That's right!" Tai Yin suddenly realized.
When Jiang Wang was being chased by the Calamity Beast King, there was no one else around him.
With Jiang Wang's strength, he was easily defeated by the Calamity Beast King. How could Zuo Guangshu, who was obviously weaker, survive?
As the key to opening the Mountain Sea Realm, the Nine Jade Annulus wouldn't leave before the Mountain Sea Realm closed.
If Zuo Guangshu and Jiang Wang had already left …
Then where would the Orange Jade Annulus be?
It must be where the two of them left last.
"Let's go to where Jiang Wang's traces disappeared!" Tai Yin immediately said.
The cramped cabin they were hiding in was the Xiang Family's secret treasure, the Mountain Piercing Shuttle. He was used to hiding his tracks and could defend himself as well as escape. It could also pass through mountains and earth like swimming in water.
Because there were many floating mountains and large islands in the Mountain Sea Realm, this treasure was used.
As soon as Tai Yin finished speaking, North Xiang had already controlled the Mountain Piercing Shuttle to change directions.
On the dark bottom of the sea, the enormous mountain range hidden in the shadows was like a giant beast that was sleeping.
At a certain moment, the dark mountain rocks separated. A pitch-black Mountain Piercing Shuttle swam out of the water naturally. This scene was like a fish swimming in the water, there was nothing strange about it.
The part of the cabin that touched the water instantly turned into the color of the water. When it swam into the dense water grass, it turned into the color of the water grass. When it passed through the tall coral bushes, it turned blood red.
The color of the entire Mountain Piercing Shuttle kept on changing. It could always merge with the environment and was very exquisite.
After escaping with Tai Yin, North Xiang used the power of the Mountain Piercing Shuttle to go deep into the underwater mountain range to avoid being chased.
This treasure shuttle that was known for its ability to pierce mountains was also very calm in the water. It swam slowly and naturally, but it wasn't slow at all.
Every time a giant beast appeared, it would stop moving.
After stopping and moving, it finally left the bottom of the ocean and jumped out of the water, flying toward the location in Tai Yin's memory.
After leaving the water, the Mountain Piercing Shuttle was as fast as lightning.
However, under North Xiang's control, it didn't fly high and only flew close to the surface of the water.
Tai Yin in the cabin had already taken out the formation disk to reduce sound.
The Mountain Piercing Shuttle was so silent and good at merging with the environment. If it wasn't for the fact that it was moving at high speed, it wouldn't have to worry about being noticed.
The directions in the Mountain Ocean Territory were really messy. Apart from a specific time, it was almost impossible to determine the direction. However, for Tai Yin who had the Seven Star Compass, it wouldn't be too difficult for him to find a place that had already been searched.
People would leave marks and things would leave traces.
In Tai Yin's eyes, no traces could be hidden from him.
Even the formation path itself, in his eyes, was just a modification of the traces of Heaven and Earth. Of course, this was an inverse theory. Everyone knew that the formation path used people's path to develop the path of Heaven and Earth.
If Tai Yin said this publicly, the conservative Tai Family would be the first to stop him, so he only kept it in his heart.
The Azure Dragon took 'Faith', the Vermillion Bird took 'Virtue', the Xuanwu took 'Benevolence', and the White Tiger took 'Kill'. These four words were the four words of the path he chose. In the path framework set by the ancestors, it was quite normal.
Granduncle Tai Hua also walked this path and became a Perfected Being in the end, reviving the Tai Family.
Of course, this should be a path that shone brightly.
The principles that he practiced didn't deviate from them.
However, he couldn't lie to his heart. The truest part of his heart had never been touched. He had never reached the path that he wanted.
Hence, even though the four floors had existed for a long time, they still couldn't reach the peak of the path.
Now, it was even taken down by a nameless person.
Was it time to change?
However, how could a family be more important than a mountain?
How could a orthodoxy that was already struggling to survive allow someone to shake its foundation?
After flying for four hours, the Mountain Piercing Shuttle had arrived at the location where the God Prison Six Paths Formation was set up.
North Xiang showed extraordinary caution. He controlled the Mountain Piercing Shuttle to dive into the water from a certain distance away and slowly approached the target. After observing carefully and confirming that there were no problems, he jumped out with Tai Yin and started to search for the Orange Song Jade Annulus that might have been lost nearby.
However, it was obviously futile.
No matter how serious and careful they were, no matter how many methods they used, they still came up empty-handed.
"After dying in the Mountain Sea Realm, will the corpse be moved away by the Mountain Sea Realm's rules?" Tai Yin asked, "Or will it be left in the Mountain Sea Realm to be eaten by beasts?"
"Normally, the moment one dies in battle, the corpse will be moved away. Only the Nine Jade Annulus will be left behind, "North Xiang said.
"As expected …" Tai Yin muttered, "It won't leave you the decisive evidence to determine the authenticity of the realm."
"If the authenticity of the Mountain Sea Realm is so easy to determine, people wouldn't need to argue about it." North Xiang said calmly, "However, whether it's real or fake won't affect the harvest, so don't worry too much about it. At least, the 30% of soul origin that was removed after death is real. "
Tai Yin thought about it and asked again, "Will the Orange Song Jade Annulus be taken away by Huo Dou? Is there a chance that the Nine Jade Annulus is lost in the Mountain Sea Realm? "
"We can't rule out the possibility of it being taken away by Huo Dou. The Nine Jade Annulus is special, so it's not strange for beasts to want it," North Xiang said, "But after the Mountain Sea Realm journey ends. Every Nine-Chapter Jade Disc would eventually return to the place where it first entered. For example, my Huaisha Jade Annulus will return to the Xiang Family and wait to be used again. "
Tai Yin sighed, "The Huaisha Jade Annulus will return to its rightful owner, this is a good news that comforts me. Unfortunately, we need a Jade Annulus now. "
"We can only think of other ways," North Xiang asked, "How are you recovering? Can you still set up formations? "
Tai Yin didn't speak for a long time as if he was thinking about something, he couldn't help but ask, "Tai Yin?"
Tai Yin came back to his senses, "You've given me all your precious medicines, of course, there won't be any problems."
"However, since the Orange Song Jade Annulus might have been taken away by the Huo Dou king beast …"
He muttered and took out the Seven Star Compass, "I have its traces here, and you have the Mountain Piercing Shuttle, why don't we go take a look?"
"Go where …" North Xiang paused, then said, "Are you serious?"
How terrifying was the Huo Dou king beast?
Once it got serious, even someone as strong as Jiang Wang would disappear in a blink of an eye and leave in defeat.
Plus, it had an army with it.
North Xiang didn't think that he and Tai Yin could last a few rounds if they worked together.
Tai Yin's thoughts were very clear, he said slowly, "We don't have many choices now. If we don't fight now, we won't have a chance when the sky collapses. "
North Xiang, who had always been brave and arrogant, was now the more cautious one. The more they lost until they had nothing left, the more unwilling he was to be enraged. "Now it's not a matter of fighting or not, but what do we have to fight with Calamity? If we fight head-on, we won't be able to last even one round. "
"We're just going to find the Orange Song Jade Annulus, not fight Huo." Tai Yin said calmly, "Find where they live, use the Mountain Piercing Shuttle to get close, take the Jade Annulus and leave. Since the Huo Dou king beast could come out to hunt once, it'll definitely come out again. We just need to use this time. "
"Also, Huo Dou's nest is the only important place we have. We've already come into contact with Huo Dou and know how they fight, so why don't we go check it out?
Compared to other strange beasts' nests, Huo Dou's nest is a less risky choice.
Even if they don't bring the Orange Song Jade Annulus back, maybe we can find something there. "
North Xiang glanced at Tai Yin again, he seemed to have just realized his gambling nature.
Tai Yin's words were very logical, but he seemed to have completely ignored the Huo Dou king beast's cunning and strength.
Thinking, he said in a low voice, "What you said is not true. If we don't have the Jade Annulus, we can't take anything away. "
"We can cooperate with others, we can give them some benefits and share the light of the Jade Annulus. We can even buy the Jade Annulus. There will definitely be people who will leave later, and some people will have a few more Jade Annulus. When the Mountain Sea Realm is about to end, the Jade Annulus will be extra. No one will mind selling it for a good price … Of course, we still have the possibility of stealing the Jade Annulus. "
Tai Yin said, "After we get something, everything can be discussed."
"In a place like the Mountain Sea Realm, what you get might not be yours. The premise of the discussion is strength, not the Jade Annulus. This isn't Chu or Xia. The rules of the modern world can't be applied here. " North Xiang calmed down, his thoughts were clear and his eyes were sharp enough. "Tai Yin, you're too impatient."
It was easy to imagine what kind of people would have extra Jade Discs in their hands. Why should they talk to you? Can't they take all your Jade Annulus?
"If you have a better idea, I'll listen to you. If not, then listen to me. Okay? " Tai Yin said to North Xiang with an unprecedentedly serious expression, "My country, my family, they all need me to perform better. Today, I don't want to leave empty-handed. "
He felt North Xiang's intention to retreat. He knew that North Xiang couldn't bear the loss of 30% of his Soul Origin.
But he also knew that Xiang Bei could empathize with him the most.
True Monarch Xiang Longxiang's death and True Monarch Taihua's death brought similar harm to their families. The impact on them was also similar.
They were in the same boat, so they got along well.
He also questioned himself in his heart. How bad of a person would try to influence his friend's choice by poking at his scar.
But the final answer was that he had no choice.
He couldn't leave like this.
North Xiang held the Unparalleled Halberd and said, "Okay. I'll go with you. "
…
…
High in the sky, a Blood Crown Bird flew with the wind.
It spread its wings like a drooping cloud.
Under the cage, a moving shadow passed over an island.
This was a volcanic island.
Volcanoes erupted from time to time, and black smoke rose up from the island.
Magma pools were embedded in the island, which was mainly made of black stones. They looked very eye-catching.
The Calamities that could be seen everywhere, lying down or standing, of course, couldn't escape its sharp eyes.
The Blood Crown Bird lowered its body slightly, and its sharp claws were ready to attack — —
Roar! Roar! Roar!
The Calamities that looked like dogs jumped out from all kinds of places and roared angrily!
The Blood Crown Bird immediately stopped diving, but it seemed to be a little unwilling and still circled above the island.
At this time, in the highest volcano, a Calamity with a three-pronged tail walked out of the magma that was erupting. Its posture was elegant, but its aura was fierce. It coldly looked at the giant bird.
The Blood Crown Bird resentfully pulled itself up and flapped its wings to fly away.
Roar! Roar! Roar!
The Calamities on the mountain shouted again, and they were in a daze for their king.
All the magma pools were boiling — —
Except for the magma lake at the middle of the main peak.
Not long after fulfilling his responsibility of feeding the Calamities, Jiang, who was lying on the magma with a bloody nose and a swollen face, unhappily covered his ears and turned over in the boiling magma.
"So noisy, these vicious dogs!"
