The Strongest turned towards the northwest direction and headed at full speed. Tens of thousands of miles behind the Strongest, there was a ship that was one size larger than the Strongest sailing at full speed as well.
On the ship behind the Strongest stood two old men. One was a red-faced old man and the other was a white-faced old man. They were Li Long and Li She. At this moment, their expressions were ugly. Clearly, they were not in a good mood.
Li She looked into the distance of Deity Sea. He did not see any ship, so he said in a depressed tone:
"Big Brother, we've been tracking the strongest pirate crew for almost a month. Apart from finding two pirate ships abandoned by the strongest pirate crew, we haven't seen a single person. Could the other pirate ship have sunk to the bottom of the sea?"
"No."
Li Long's eyes flashed as he asserted: "The two pirate ships are almost intact. Just as you said, they should have been abandoned by the strongest pirate group. We have been chasing for so long, yet we have not caught up with the third pirate ship. This means that the kid surnamed Xiao has been using the energy propellers to sail."
"Using energy propellers?" Li She asked in surprise. Following that, he began to curse fiercely, "Damn bastard Xiao, he robbed our Li family of 1200 seven-colored magic stones, and he actually wasted them. Damn it! Let me catch him. I will make him wish he was dead! "
"Wish he was dead? That's too easy on him. I will use a dagger to slice him to death. Hehe. "
Li Long's face turned sinister. His gaze was even colder and more vicious than Li She's: "Not only did he rob our Li family, he also killed hundreds of our people. We must take revenge for this. Second brother, give the order. Don't hesitate to use the energy propellers to chase after the strongest pirate group at full speed!"
"En, brother, I will give the order now." Li She agreed and turned to leave. Although rainbow stones were precious, if he could get revenge, he would not hesitate to use hundreds of rainbow stones.
…
At the same time, a ship appeared in the western sea hundreds of thousands of miles away from the strongest pirate ship. The ship was even bigger than Li Long and Li She's Dragon Serpent. It was a super-large ship.
The super-large ship was terrifyingly fast. It was almost three times the speed of the Strongest pirate ship. That was because it had four energy propellers installed on its hull. That was why its speed was so terrifying.
The super-large ship was completely black. Even the flag on the ship was black. However, there were two big white words painted on it — Black Flag.
Needless to say, this ship belonged to Black Flag Island. It was very likely that it was the exclusive ship of Black Flag Island's Island Master, Black Flag. Otherwise, this ship would not be so extravagant.
However, Black Flag Island was about five million kilometers away from Dragon Snake Island and four million kilometers away from Moon Fox Island. Black Flag Island shouldn't have arrived so quickly. Even if it traveled fifty thousand kilometers in a day in a month, it would only be one and a half million kilometers.
Now, the Black Flag ship was only 500,000 miles away from the strongest pirate ship, and it was sailing at full speed in front of the strongest pirate ship. Could it be that the Black Flag ship was heading for the spirit vein?
That was very possible. This was the only reasonable explanation. Now, Xiao Chen had another competitor for the spirit stones. If Black Flag wasn't the only Divine Dragon Realm expert on board, and there were other experts from the Hei Clan, things would become interesting.
Other than the Strongest, Dragon Snake, and Black Flag Ships, many island masters and pirate leaders in the eastern sea region of the Divine Sea had taken their own ships and rushed to the spirit vein's location at full speed.
Such a huge event like the spirit vein's eruption must have alarmed countless experts. They all rushed to the location of the spirit vein's eruption, hoping to get a share of the loot and make a fortune. After all, the spirit vein's eruption was very rare.
With so many experts heading to the spirit vein's location, once it was confirmed that the spirit vein's eruption was real, it would definitely lead to a battle between experts and sea beasts for the spirit stones. It would also lead to a battle between experts.
If there was no demigod realm expert, with the combined strength of Xiao Chen and The Lion King's battle beasts, coupled with the Fengsha Sword, they would definitely be able to defeat all experts below the demigod realm. This was without a doubt.
Therefore, in the upcoming battle for the spirit stones, Xiao Chen and his brothers would have a huge advantage. However, nothing was absolute.
If a demigod realm expert really came from the Middle State, then Xiao Chen and his brothers would not have any advantage. Instead, their lives would be in danger. One had to know that Xiao Chen had too many secrets. Even a demigod realm expert would be tempted.
…
On the Strongest pirate ship, after Zheng Chenggong executed Xiao Chen's order, he ran behind Xiao Chen and looked at the sea ahead with Xiao Chen and the yellow dog, hoping to find the spirit vein's location.
At the same time, there were pirate warriors standing in every direction of the Strongest pirate ship, paying close attention to the surrounding sea. Once they discovered any abnormalities in the sea, the pirate warriors would immediately report to Xiao Chen.
The originally easy and comfortable journey became very tense and excited because of the huge news of the spirit vein's eruption.
Ever since the wooden sword was damaged, Xiao Chen no longer carried a sword on his back. It was not that he did not want to, but there was no suitable sword for him to carry. The Fengsha Sword was a flashy giant sword that could be carried, but Xiao Chen did not intend to keep the Fengsha Sword exposed.
The reason why Xiao Chen hid the Fengsha Sword in his storage ring and would not use the Fengsha Sword unless he encountered a strong enemy was because the Fengsha Sword was a peerless, ominous sword.
The experts from the Middle State would definitely know their stuff. Once the Fengsha Sword was recognized and spread, the entire Middle State would be shaken. By then, countless experts from the Middle State would come to hunt down Xiao Chen, just to snatch the Fengsha Sword and obtain the Demonic Sky's secret.
Although Xiao Chen's current comprehensive strength could barely dominate the Wilderness God Continent, he could not defeat a demigod realm expert, let alone a heavenly realm expert.
Back then, the remnant soul of the Holy Beast Iron Blood Mulberry was able to easily defeat the Black Demon Pavilion Venerable who was at the first level of the Demigod Realm. If not for the Blood Corpse using Blood Kill as a substitute, the Blood Corpse would have been instantly killed.
A heavenly realm expert was on the same level as a holy beast. A casual attack from a heavenly realm expert could instantly kill Xiao Chen and The Lion King in their battle forms. There was no doubt about that.
Therefore, Xiao Chen planned to not expose the identity of the Fengsha Sword before he fully matured or had the ability to protect himself. He would also try to keep a low profile.
Of course, if someone took the initiative to provoke them, they would not hold back. Sometimes, they could even take the initiative to deal with the evildoers, such as destroying the Triangle Fiend Pirates and robbing the Li family.
With so many experts gathering in the eastern sea of the Divine Sea, it was obvious that they were very familiar with the location and time of the spirit vein's eruption.
This was very likely. Otherwise, there was no way to explain how the Black Flag Pirate Ship appeared near the Moon Fox Island in such a short time.
Although Xiao Chen had guessed that there would be experts who would notice the spirit vein's eruption, he did not think that there would be a large number of experts heading toward the spirit vein. After all, he knew too little about the Divine Sea. To put it bluntly, he was not experienced enough.
The Strongest kept tracking the large number of sea beasts and sailed at full speed. They traveled 20,000 miles in a day. After sailing for about ten days, Xiao Chen and the others noticed that the speed of the sea beasts had slowed down. It seemed like they were reaching their destination.
As expected, the Strongest sailed for another half a day. Yellow Dog carefully sensed that there were countless sea beasts gathered a few miles in front of the pirate ship.
These countless sea beasts came in all shapes and sizes. They ranged from level-1 sea beasts to level-8 sea beasts. As for the level-9 sea beasts, Da Huang and the Fengsha Sword could not sense them at the moment. They did not know if they were hiding in the depths of the sea.
Even the ninth-class sea beasts did not discover them. Even if the more powerful half-saint and saint sea beasts appeared, Big Yellow and the Fiendish Incineration Sword might not be able to discover them. After all, the difference in strength was too big.
Xiao Chen stood on the deck and looked around. He did not notice any unusual movements in the sea. He guessed that the spirit vein's eruption had not officially begun. He immediately heaved a sigh of relief and looked straight ahead.
