To the east of Sky Coast City, there was an endless ocean.
Lu An's team arrived at Sky Coast City once again and set off from there. However, before they left, Lu An deliberately said to these people, "This trip is dangerous. Everyone prioritizes self-preservation and act according to your capabilities. If you discover any heretics, don't act on your own. Wait until morning to report to me, and I will make the decision. "
Everyone in the team nodded slightly. Even without Lu An's reminder, they did not want to infiltrate too much to search. This was obviously a feud between Lu An and the Karmic Fire Sect. As for how Lu An wanted to deal with the Karmic Fire Sect and what he wanted them to do, they just needed to listen.
After a few simple sentences, the team started to move toward the ocean. When they rushed out of the land and entered the sea, everyone immediately split up into pairs and flew in different directions.
Looking at the endless ocean, the mood of searching was completely different from on land.
This was not only because it was dangerous, but also because the endless ocean gave people a lot of pressure. In addition, the depth of the ocean was much deeper than that of ordinary land. It was very difficult to use one's perception to clearly identify a depth below three thousand feet. In other words, if they wanted to search carefully, they would have to enter the deep sea from time to time.
Everyone from the sects knew that many strange beasts and races in the ocean were attacking the land. Even the coast near the land had become very unsafe. This was a completely different feeling of nervousness from on land. Everyone could not help but slow down.
Except for Lu An and Ling Chong.
Lu An was flying in the sky at almost full speed. He opened up his perception completely and tried to cover as much area as possible, including the ocean below. Ling Chong naturally followed beside Lu An. However, he did not know why the Alliance Master was so proactive and advancing so quickly.
"Alliance Master …" Ling Chong was obviously a little worried. He said, "They definitely won't advance so quickly. If we go too deep, we won't be able to get help in time if something happens."
"That's what I'm doing." Lu An continued forward. Strong winds swept past him. He turned his head and said to Ling Chong, "Fly for a while more. You stop as well. I'll go to the sea area ahead by myself."
"Ah?!" Ling Chong was stunned. He quickly said, "How can we do that? If the Alliance Master goes alone, Alliance Master Liu will kill me! "
"Don't worry, she won't." Lu An quickly said, "Every day, you just have to make sure that you return to Sky Coast City at seven in the morning to meet them. Just say that I'm still looking for them and that I'm safe and don't have time to come back. As for my safety, you don't have to worry. Every day, I will return to Ice and Fire City at midnight to inform them of my safety. "
"…"
Hearing Lu An's words, Ling Chong finally understood that this matter was not as simple as it seemed. The Alliance Master obviously had other plans. Since that was the case, he could more or less relax.
"Okay." Ling Chong nodded and said, "I will go back every morning."
"Remember, don't go too deep into the ocean. It's too dangerous and unnecessary." Lu An's eyes were solemn as he said seriously, "Don't think about coming to find me. You just need to do one thing well."
"Yes." Ling Chong nodded vigorously and said.
Lu An and Ling Chong once again flew forward for some distance. After confirming that there were no spies from other sects in all directions, Lu An directly asked Ling Chong to stop and return to the coast to hide. Meanwhile, he himself flew at full speed towards the depths of the ocean.
The reason Lu An didn't let Ling Chong follow him was very simple. The Bloody Mountain Crimson Moon Stone that could cause such a large number of casualties was very likely very powerful, just like the large piece he had seen near Outré Province. The powerful Bloody Mountain Crimson Moon Stone was enough to affect a Level Eight Heavenly Master. Once Ling Chong was hit and lost his mind, he would instead attack him.
To be honest, Lu An's reverence towards the ocean had never decreased. This was because he had heard some strange sounds and words in the ocean many times. However, for the Bloody Mountain Crimson Moon Stone, he would bite the bullet and do it. Moreover, he was also looking forward to passing this mission and increasing his strength.
He had been trapped for nearly six months. No matter what, he had to at least touch the barrier of Level Eight Intermediate first. As long as he could touch the barrier, a breakthrough was just around the corner.
Flying alone above the ocean, although Lu An had lived on the ocean for a few years and was used to such a life, more or less, it gave people a feeling of emptiness and loneliness. Lu An's time in the sky and in the ocean was the same as the time in the ocean at a depth of 3,500 feet. Every 30 minutes, he would change directions and try to expand the search area as much as possible.
In fact, Lu An was very clear in his heart that the Karmic Fire Sect had deliberately arranged for him to enter this area of the ocean. This meant that they had already discovered some clues here in advance. In order to ensure that they could kill him, it was very likely that they had made a lot of preparations. For example, they had sent people here a day in advance to attract the people of the enemy forces and wantonly patrol the ocean. In other words, it should be very easy for him to find the traces of the enemy.
Lu An had always been vigilant, ready to deal with any possible crisis at any time. However, no matter what, the headquarters of the enemy forces couldn't be too close. Lu An flew on the ocean for an entire day without finding any traces.
Shortly after, the sky was completely dark.
According to Lu An's speed, his current location was very far from the Eight Ancient Continents. Moreover, with the speed of the other members, they had already left him far behind. It was hard to say if they could cover half of his distance.
When night came, Lu An's speed gradually slowed down. After a whole day of traveling, he had consumed almost thirty percent of his energy. To him, it was his limit. He had to recover this energy as soon as possible.
More importantly, the night was the time when the enemy forces would take action.
Lu An was flying at a constant speed around two thousand feet above the ocean. There were no clouds in the night sky today. The bright moon was hanging high in the sky, and the sky was filled with stars. However, it was night after all. Although there were so many sparkling lights on the ocean surface, it was still hard to see things far away.
Since his vision was blocked, his Perception had become the most important means of searching.
The ocean surface tonight was strangely quiet. There was no wind, not even a ripple. The surface of the water was as smooth as a mirror. The entire scene was so quiet that it seemed to be still.
This kind of extreme quietness could give people a big illusion, which would make them extremely frightened.
The quieter it was, the weirder it would be.
Lu An's eyes became deep. The moonlight couldn't even illuminate his eyes. His black eyes were observing everywhere in the dark night.
Lu An had moved forward for around one hour. He had recovered ninety percent of his energy. At the same time, the bright moon had reached its highest point.
Swoosh!
Lu An's figure suddenly stopped. He stood on the ocean surface, under the stars as if he was standing in the center of the entire world.
His eyes were incomparably dark, gazing at the place in front of him that his vision couldn't reach.
Boom …
Boom …
Boom Boom Boom …
Rumbling noises arose from the darkness far away. They were getting closer and closer. The quietness of the entire ocean was broken. Dark clouds diffused from afar, covering the stars in the sky little by little.
The same thing happened to the water under his feet. Small ripples appeared, but they became bigger and bigger. In the end, they became massive waves. The tranquil ocean surface became turbulent. The height of the waves was more than ten zhang.
At the same time, something finally walked out of the darkness, entering Lu An's sight.
It was a ship.
It was an incomparably huge ship.
This ship was more than three hundred zhang tall, and more than six hundred zhang wide. The hull of the ship had only one color, which was a blood-red color.
The instant he saw this ship, Lu An's eyes focused. He stood motionless in the sky, calmly waiting for the arrival of this huge ship.
Finally, this huge ship completely walked out of the darkness, arriving at a distance of three thousand zhang from Lu An. But what came even earlier than the huge ship were the dark clouds in the sky, as well as the roaring waves of the ocean.
From the stifling silence to the earth-shaking rumbling noises, the huge gap was enough to shake one's heart.
However, Lu An's mood didn't change from beginning to end. In particular, his eyes were still as deep and dark as before. Even the sky covered by the dark clouds couldn't compare to them. They were like an endless abyss.
Similarly calm, there was only one person standing on the deck of this huge ship.
That's right, a huge ship, but only one person.
This man wore a red gown. He raised his head to look at the young man standing in the sky, his eyes faintly emitting a red light.
