Lu An frowned when he read the first sentence. If he did not misunderstand the meaning behind it, it meant that this so-called 'sea cluster' was a type of social plant. Moreover, there were thousands of them, and they were born around the treasure. This plant floated to the surface of the sea millions of miles away and transformed into the shape of an island. If that was the case, then the island he encountered might not be the only one, but one of the many floating islands!
If that was the case, it would greatly increase the possibility of the Heaven Masters finding the moving island. Furthermore, there were records in the book, so others might know the contents. They might not even be the first to discover it, but someone else had already discovered it!
However, the appearance of this' sea cluster 'directly proved that there was indeed a treasure in the deep sea. In other words, the recent news about the treasure was true and not fake. All of a sudden, everyone in the room became even more confident in finding the treasure!
"According to what you said, the 'sea cluster' you encountered was at least Level Eight. The treasure that can be surrounded by this kind of strength is at least Level Eight, and it might even be higher!" Wu Ce's voice was solemn as he turned to look at everyone. "However, only one of the sixty Level Seven Heaven Masters managed to escape, and it was only one 'sea cluster'. Furthermore, it was only one 'sea cluster'. The journey of treasure hunting is one of death, so I respect everyone's opinions. Whether or not you want to go will be decided by a show of hands. The minority obeys the majority. "
"…"
Everyone fell silent and looked at each other hesitantly. After all, they already knew the approximate location of the treasure, and it must be a shocking treasure. They were unwilling to give up just like that. However, this trip was so dangerous that they did not dare to give up.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Wu Ce took a deep breath and said, "Treasure hunting must be fast. If you fall behind, others will take the initiative. I will only give everyone an hour to consider. Everyone must think carefully. Once you make a decision, you must not go back on it!"
Everyone was shocked and did not speak anymore. They all walked to the side and sat down to think. Even Wu Juan was the same. At this moment, Lu An said to Wu Ce, "Thank you for saving me. I will take my leave now."
"Wait!" Just as Lu An was about to leave, Wu Ce immediately stopped him and said, "Are you alone?"
Lu An was startled and said, "Yes."
"Are you still going to search for the treasure?" Wu Ce asked again.
"That's right," Lu An admitted again.
"Since that's the case, why don't you come with us? That way, you won't have to take the risk alone. The more people we have, the more power we have." Wu Ce said, "Why don't Your Excellency wait here for an hour? You can also rest for a while and recover your energy. It won't take too much time."
Hearing Wu Ce's words, Lu An hesitated. To him, he didn't need these people to help him at all. Instead, they might become a burden to him. However, after thinking about it, Lu An nodded slightly. The reason was simple. These people had brought him back from the ocean, and he did not want to owe them a favor. If these people really wanted to go, then he would try his best to ensure their safety without endangering his own life. Perhaps this was also a kind of cultivation.
"I don't have much interest in treasures," Lu An said. "If I feel that my life is in danger, I will leave immediately."
"No problem." Wu Ce patted Lu An's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, with us here, you won't have to bear the pressure."
Lu An nodded and returned to his bed to meditate and rest. Although his body couldn't be any better now, he still needed to repeatedly think about the battle just now and find out if there was a way to restrain the 'sea cluster'.
An hour passed very slowly, but also very quickly. When the time was up, Wu Ce stood up and said to the people in the room, "It's time to vote. Those who want to go, raise your hand."
Everyone's body trembled, their hearts were still conflicted, and their faces showed a difficult expression.
"Three!"
"Two!"
"One!"
Shua — —
Excluding Wu Ce and Lu An, there were eight people left in the room. Out of the eight people, five raised their hands, the other three did not. The result was very clear.
Wu Ce took a deep breath, his eyes quickly became fierce, and said, "Everyone quickly get ready, we will set off in an incense's time!"
"Yes!" The eight people immediately got up and left the room to make preparations, including Wu Ce.
In fact, there were very few things to prepare, because most of the things were in the eight people's rings. Very quickly, the nine people gathered in the courtyard outside the room. Including Wu Ce and Lu An, there were exactly ten people.
During this time, Lu An also took out his clothes from the ring and changed into them. It was very fitting, and gave off an exquisite and simple feeling. Lu An looked at the nine people. Before the decision was made, their eyes were filled with hesitation. When the result was out, the three who did not raise their hands were also very uncomfortable. But at this moment, everyone's eyes were very firm, without a trace of hesitation.
That's right, this was a quality that a deep sea sage must have. Without exception, deep sea sage were all adventurers, if they did not have enough courage, they would not be able to survive in the sea. Before making a decision, they could hesitate, but after making a decision, they had to abandon any unnecessary distracting thoughts, and wholeheartedly rush towards their goal, pressing forward courageously!
Wu Ce looked around and asked loudly, "Is everyone ready?"
"Ready!" The eight people shouted in unison!
"Good!" Wu Ce nodded, took a deep breath, and said, "Once the treasure is in our hands, we will divide it equally. Any objections?"
"No objections!" The eight people shouted again!
Wu Ce looked at Lu An and asked, "What about you?"
"No objections." Lu An said. He did not have any objections, because he did not come here solely for the treasure, but more to gain experience. As for the treasure, it was good to get a share.
Wu Ce nodded with satisfaction and said to everyone, "In that case, let's set off immediately!"
As he said that, Wu Ce turned around and opened a light blue teleportation array. Most of the teleportation arrays of deep sea sage were of the water attribute, so such teleportation arrays were very common.
Everyone entered one after another, and Lu An followed. Soon, the ten people disappeared in the courtyard, and the light quickly dissipated.
— — —
— —
Four Southern Seas, Four Southern Regions.
A teleportation array suddenly lit up in the sky, and then ten figures walked out one after another, standing in the sky.
This was the place where Lu An had fainted, and at this moment, the flame energy on the sea had disappeared. Everyone did not say anything, and they all looked to the south. This time, they had to travel a million miles to the south, which put a lot of pressure in their hearts.
Although a million miles was nothing in the entire Four Southern Seas, and even in the entire Four Southern Seas, it was not close to a sage, even a Level 7 sage. More importantly, the further south they went, the greater the danger. They did not know what would happen.
However, since they had made up their minds, they naturally would not back down. Wu Ce immediately said to everyone, "Fly at a height of three thousand feet. Before reaching the destination, you cannot descend, and you cannot act on your own accord. Understand?"
"Understood!" Everyone replied.
Immediately, the ten people flew up to a height of three thousand feet. Such a height was already a bit stressful for a Level 7 sage, and their strength would be reduced to a certain extent. However, it was definitely safer than flying close to the sea. After all, deep-sea strange beasts were the most terrifying things!
"Let's go!" Wu Ce shouted, and the ten people immediately flew towards the south. Their speed was neither fast nor slow, and they moved forward at a uniform speed!
Immediately, a roar came from the sky, and the ten figures instantly disappeared, flying towards the south in the clouds!
A distance of a million miles, even a Level 7 sage would need about two hours to fly. If it was under normal circumstances, Wu Ce and the others would definitely feel that it was very troublesome and would not be willing to fly. Even if they were flying, they would lose focus. However, at this moment, everyone's willpower was completely taut, and they were completely focused on the sea, not slacking off at all.
Among the ten people, the three who did not raise their hands were the most nervous. Their hearts were in their throats, and their bodies were trembling. The other six people were either more adventurous or had no scruples. However, the three of them were people with families, and did not want to die so early.
Lu An was at the back. He looked at the state of the three people and frowned slightly. If they were to fight in such a state, their strength would be greatly reduced, and they might even become a burden to the team.
However, to Lu An, he did not have any confidence in this trip. The book said that there were a thousand groups, but it was impossible to guess whether there were a thousand 'clumps' or a thousand groups of 'clumps'. Even the clumps in the periphery had the strength of a Level 8 sage. Would the clumps inside be even stronger?
Lu An's expression became even more serious. No matter what, he could not lose his life because of this.
