"Spirit Stones!"
Big Yellow's eyes lit up when he saw the energy stones in Xiao Chen's hand. He was excited, so he stuck out his long tongue and licked his lips, then he said excitedly, "Big brother, are you going to absorb the energy stones?"
"Yes, it's time to refine the Heaven-level Spirit Stones." Xiao Chen did not deny it. His eyes also lit up. He paused for a moment and said expectantly,
"However, before I refine the Heaven-level Spirit Stones, I have to try again to break through to the Earth Dragon Realm. If I can't succeed, then I can only rely on the Spirit Stones to break through."
"En, Big Brother, the sooner you break through to the Earth Dragon Realm, the sooner we reach the Central Continent, the more you can trample on those good-for-nothings. I'm really looking forward to that day, hehehe."
The Lion King was a man who wanted to see the world in chaos. He had already begun to look forward to the day when the three of them would trample on all the top nobles in the Central Continent.
"Da Huang, don't be arrogant. Although we don't know the situation in the Central Continent, there are Divine Sea powerhouses who can speculate that the Central Continent must be full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers."
Although Xiao Chen was very confident in his own strength, he was not arrogant at all. There was always someone better than him, and he might not be the strongest among the younger generation.
Upon noticing the big yellow dog's disapproving look, Xiao Chen glanced at the spirit stones in his hand and came up with a convincing reason, so he grinned and said, "You're right.
He grinned and said, "Da Huang, have you forgotten about the Spirit Stones? The Central Continent definitely produces more Spirit Stones than the Divine Sea. The big families and aristocratic families in the Central Continent must have a lot of Spirit Stones.
"Therefore, the good-for-nothings in your mouth have a lot of cultivation resources. Naturally, his cultivation will progress by leaps and bounds. Combined with other high-level cultivation resources, it is inevitable that he will become a high-level martial artist. Da Huang, do you think this makes sense?"
"It does make sense." The yellow dog wiped the saliva from its mouth with its front paw and said with an expectant look,
"Big Brother, when we three brothers reach the Central Continent, we will continue to commit crimes and plunder the Central Continent's Spirit Stones. We will make a fortune and strengthen ourselves, hehe."
"Robbery?"
Xiao Chen understood what the Yellow Dog meant. He was a little tempted, but he soon felt that it was inappropriate. He smiled and said, "Da Huang, we can't rob others for no reason, unless we have a reason to do so, such as enemies, evildoers, and so on. We can't rob anyone we see in the Central Plains, can we?"
"Big Brother, I didn't say that I would just randomly steal from ordinary people. Even if I were to steal, it would be the treasures of the great clans or aristocratic families in the Central Plains, hehe," the yellow dog said with a smirk. In his eyes, the great clans and aristocratic families were all evil people who deserved to be robbed.
"Big families and aristocratic families?"
Xiao Chen gave the yellow dog a thumbs up and said in a mocking tone, "Da Huang, if we go and rob the big families and families in the Middle Continent, I don't think we'll be able to get any spirit stones or other treasures. Instead, we'll be hunted down by them, hehe."
"We shouldn't fight a battle we're not confident in, and we shouldn't rob someone we're not confident in. Before we make a move, we need to make sure everything is in place, don't you think so?" the yellow dog said disapprovingly.
"Alright, stop bragging. We'll talk about it when the time comes, hehe." Xiao Chen did not continue the topic of robbing the Middle Continent clans. He tossed the blue spirit stone in his hand to the yellow dog and said,
"Da Huang, refine this Profound-grade spirit stone and see if it can raise your cultivation to the later stage or peak stage of the ninth grade. Xiao Sha and I will protect you. After you've successfully refined the spirit stone, you and Xiao Sha will protect me. When the time comes, I'll refine the heaven-grade spirit stone. Why don't you start refining it now?"
"Okay, Big Brother."
The yellow dog opened its mouth and caught the Profound-grade spirit stone that was the size of a one-year-old baby's palm. It swallowed it without any fear of choking to death. Then, it laid down on the deck, closed its eyes, and fell asleep in the blink of an eye.
"Da Huang's cultivation method is really enjoyable, hehe." Seeing that the yellow dog had fallen asleep, Xiao Chen was not surprised at all.
This was because he knew that sleep was the yellow dog's cultivation method. Although this kind of cultivation method was very strange and unconventional, it was the truth. It had to accept it even if it could not.
Xiao Chen sat back on the deck chair and waited for the moment when the yellow dog successfully refined the spirit stone. He was not in a hurry to break through to the Earth Dragon Realm. Protecting the yellow dog was more important than anything else. He could not afford to make any mistakes.
The nearby sea seemed to be safe, but it was not. The Divine Sea was full of hidden dangers. Who knew when a ninth grade sea beast or a half-step sage sea beast would appear.
If both Xiao Chen and the yellow dog entered a state of cultivation, once a powerful sea beast or a powerful pirate appeared, it would be too weak to rely on the Fengsha Sword to protect them.
Anyway, it would take at least two months to reach the Black Flag Island. There was plenty of time for Xiao Chen to break through, so he was not in a hurry.
As for the Sea Bear Island that the strongest pirate ship was approaching, Xiao Chen and his brothers had already sensed it. The Fengsha Sword had confirmed that there were no Heavenly Dragon Realm experts or Heavenly Dragon Realm experts on the island. Therefore, Xiao Chen was relieved and the yellow dog started refining the spirit stone.
Two hours later, the strongest pirate ship had replenished enough necessities from the Sea Bear Island. Without stopping for the night, they continued their voyage towards the Black Flag Island that was more than two million miles away.
The Island Master of the Black Flag Island, Hei Qi, and another expert from the Hei family, Hei Yu, were killed by Xiao Chen and his brothers. Who knew if there were other Divine Dragon Realm experts on the island?
As for whether there were demigod experts on the Black Flag Island? The probability was relatively small. After all, demigod experts were rare and noble experts in the Central Prefecture. Such noble experts would not come to the depths of the Deity Sea.
Unless the news of Hei Qi and Hei Yu's deaths reached the Hei family in the Central Prefecture and caused the Hei family's attention and anger, the Hei family would not send a large number of Divine Dragon Realm experts or even a demigod expert to hunt down the murderer.
What made Xiao Chen and his brothers relieved was that all the people on the Black Flag Island were killed by the sea beast. Even the ship sank to the bottom of the sea. This was witnessed by Zheng Chenggong himself.
Since all the people on the Black Flag Island were dead, the news of Hei Qi and Hei Yu's deaths would naturally be sent back to the Black Flag Island. Perhaps the Hei family on the Black Flag Island was looking forward to the Black Flag Island returning with a full load!
In addition, Zheng Chenggong saw two of the six Island Masters who escaped with Xue Yuehu killed by the demigod octopus.
He didn't know if the other four Island Masters escaped from the demigod octopus, but they probably met with misfortune.
This was because one of the six Island Masters was the Island Master of the Sea Bear Island. The Island Master of the Sea Bear Island did not return to the Sea Bear Island. It was very likely that he was already dead or had escaped to another sea region.
The only worry was that there might be survivors among the six Island Masters. In order to take revenge on Xiao Chen and the Lion King, the surviving Island Master might send a message to the Black Flag Island, informing the Hei family about Xiao Chen and the Lion King killing Hei Qi and Hei Yu.
If that was the case, Xiao Chen and the Lion King's trip to the Black Flag Island was very likely to be a tiger's den. Fortunately, none of the experts who participated in the Spiritual Vein Battle knew about the secret of Xiao Chen and the Lion King's Battle Beast Fusion.
Even Zheng Chenggong didn't know about the secret of Xiao Chen and the Lion King's Battle Beast Fusion, let alone the others.
No one witnessed the battle between Xiao Chen and the Lion King and the demigod octopus. Naturally, no one knew about the secret of Battle Beast Fusion. This was the biggest reason why the Xiao Chen brothers could swagger to the Black Flag Island.
The strength that Xiao Chen and the Lion King displayed in front of the Divine Sea experts was only the strength of a Heavenly Dragon Realm and a ninth-rank monster beast. This false comprehensive strength would make the Hei family underestimate their true strength.
The result of underestimating the enemy was very likely to be defeated or even killed. If the Hei family knew about the death of Hei Qi and Hei Yu, but still looked down on Xiao Chen and the Lion King, then they would naturally not send their family's Demigod Realm experts. They would only send some Divine Dragon Realm experts to the Black Flag Island.
As long as it wasn't an expert above the Divine Dragon Realm, then it didn't matter how many people came to deal with Xiao Chen and his brothers. There was no suspense.
Even a peak stage three Divine Dragon Realm God Bestow Warrior wouldn't be a match for Xiao Chen after he fused with the Lion King's Battle Beast. Xiao Chen and his brothers could crush any Divine Dragon Realm expert or Demigod Realm expert if they worked together.
However, nothing was absolute. There might be martial artists that were more monstrous than Xiao Chen in this world. There might also be Demigod Realm experts. This was the reason why Xiao Chen and the Lion King decided to refine spirit stones to increase their strength.
There was no such thing as the strongest in martial arts, only those who were stronger. As a martial artist, only by becoming stronger could he be safer. Xiao Chen had always been a martial artist who pursued greater strength, so naturally, he would not be complacent and complacent.
In short, the road ahead would not be peaceful and dangerous. Only by constantly strengthening oneself could one go further and live longer by stepping on the corpses of powerful enemies.
