It was Su Rui's first time sailing, and although he had a map to guide him, he had no idea how to navigate. Before meeting Shi Yi, his plan was to use the sword-escaping technique to sail across the ocean until he found the Langya Immortal Mansion.
When Shi Yi took out the Spirit Fish Shuttle, his plan changed to flying directly to the Luoshen Valley near the Langya Immortal Residence. But now Shi Yi said he wanted to change flying to sailing on the waves. Although Su Rui still didn't quite understand, Shi Yi's experience in his previous life was definitely not deceptive. Therefore, he naturally supported his decision and suggestion unconditionally.
Thus, Shi Yi spent most of his time fishing and treasure hunting for the rest of the trip, with only a small amount of time spent in the shuttle practicing. Su Rui, on the other hand, spent most of his time deducing the construction of the first-level sea eel boat, with only a small amount of time outside the Spirit Fish Shuttle, playing with the seawater and the fish.
After ten days of this, Su Rui finally achieved an 80% success rate in refining the first-level loach boat in the deduction formation. At this point, Su Rui felt there was no need to continue, so he broke through the barrier and planned to search for loach fish bones, the main material for refining the loach boat's keel.
Shi Yi is not in the shuttle. He is probably diving in the deep sea to look for treasure again.
Su Rui emerged from the Spirit Fish Shuttle and didn't stray far. Instead, he channeled the River God's divine power stored within the Dragon Diagram Bagua and waded through the water near the Shuttle, fondling fish and catching shrimp, having a blast. As Shi Yi's magical weapon, the Shuttle didn't actually need Su Rui's care. However, Su Rui felt a pang of fear at the vast ocean, and diving near the Shuttle made him feel more at ease.
Suri swam to his heart's content on the seabed, feeling the warmth and flow of the water as if he had become part of it. He chased the fish and played with them, seemingly forgetting all his worries and sorrows. In this ocean, he felt free and happy, as if he had never left.
After playing for a while, Su Rui began to look for the ferocious sea loach mentioned in the secret method. This was not an easy task, because sea loaches usually live in groups in the deep sea. If you are unlucky, you may not find even one.
Su Rui swam in the sea for a while, caught a lobster as big as his arm and a king crab as big as his face, and then returned to the Lingyu Shuttle.
At this time, Shi Yi had also returned to the shuttle. Seeing Su Rui returning with seafood, which was rare, he asked in surprise.
"Erlang, have you mastered your secret technique?"
Su Rui shook his head and said, "I've almost finished the first stage of cultivation. Now I need to find the legendary giant eel before I can continue with the second stage of cultivation!"
Hearing this, Shi Yi touched his chin and said thoughtfully.
"We still have plenty of time. We can re-plan our route to Luoshengou, taking a slight detour and passing through the area where the sea loach school appeared. If there's nothing, we can wait until you finish exploring Langya Immortal Mansion and then look around!"
"Okay, I'll do as you say!"
Su Rui nodded slightly, agreeing with Shi Yi's words.
He summoned a sword energy that was like a sharp sword, condensed it into the size of chopsticks, and then swung it lightly. The sword energy rushed out like lightning and accurately hit the lobster that was still flapping on the ground.
The lobster was struck by the sword energy and instantly died. Blood and urine gushed out. Su Rui expertly drained the lobster, then sliced it thinly and savored it with Shi Yi. As they savored the delicious lobster, they exchanged their experiences of this trip to the sea.
After eating and drinking, Shi Yi invited Su Rui to go to a fish demon's lair to see if he could get some materials for refining weapons or alchemy. Su Rui readily agreed. He was very poor now and lacked all kinds of materials. Of course, he would not let such an opportunity go.
Because the Spirit Fish Shuttle was too large to attract the fish demon's attention, the two decided to use their diving abilities, diving to the bottom of the ocean and riding the waves. Shi Yi seemed to have mastered some kind of water escape technique. With a simple sway of his body in the water, he could swim several meters, like a sea fish, unaffected by the pressure and resistance of the water. His movements were light and agile, like a dancer in the water, which was awe-inspiring.
In contrast, although Su Rui possessed the power of the River God and could ride the waves, he was not as agile and quick as Shi Yi. His body was somewhat clumsy in the water, and he needed the power of the River God's command to maintain his balance.
Following Shi Yi, Su Rui saw many new marine creatures along the way, including various corals and various small fish predators, which was certainly eye-opening.
After sneaking for about quarter of an hour, they arrived at a sea area with lush aquatic plants and numerous reefs. Shi Yi reminded them that they were near the fish monster's lair and asked Su Rui to stop.
Su Rui and Shi Yi were hiding behind a coral that was half a person's height. They pushed aside the water plants and looked forward. They saw a group of big fish with ferocious looks, slender bodies, metallic silver bodies, and mouths full of small and sharp teeth. They were busy surrounding a nest hidden in the stone forest, as if they were guarding something.
"This is a three-spined mackerel, a ferocious and highly aggressive fish. After becoming a demon, its size has become even larger, and its aggressiveness has also increased with its size, so we must be careful..."
Shi Yi was about to explain the origins of this fish demon to Su Rui when a giant three-spined mackerel fish demon suddenly appeared before them. This fish demon had sharp teeth and fins glowing blue on its back, and its appearance gave both Su Rui and Shi Yi a chill.
