Chapter 36
“…” Jitang ignored what was behind him.
She stared at Su Jinzhou's chest for a moment, then looked up and met Su Jinzhou's gaze, who was looking down. She suddenly raised her hand and pressed Su Jinzhou's chest.
Su Jinzhou: "?"
Jitang: “…”
Su Jinzhou raised his eyebrows, took a step back, and both of them looked at the place where she was pressing.
It's a bit embarrassing to say.
Jitang had just stuffed a handful of mint candy into his mouth, and his lips were covered with a layer of mint green powder.
The collision hit Su Jinzhou's left chest. Judging from the location of the collision, it was in some unspeakable place on his left chest.
Su Jinzhou naturally couldn't feel anything through his clothes, but the appearance of the green mouth mark in this place was rather strange.
Su Jinzhou covered his left chest and looked up.
“…”
“…”
The senior brothers and sisters looked at each other in silence.
Jitang gave an awkward and flattering smile.
Su Jinzhou hurriedly used the body-cleansing technique to wipe off the mint green.
Ji Tang couldn't help laughing when he thought of his dull eyes just now: "So clean!"
"I'm so sorry, it's my first time on a boat, and I was a little too excited."
Jitang looked back at the people.
This monk was elegant in manners. Unlike most monks, he didn't dress in the ethereal manner of others. The fabric of his clothes was obviously expensive, much like the attire of the nobles in the imperial city. He held a folding fan in his hand, and after speaking, he opened it and waved it in front of him.
"It's okay." Ji Tang clasped his fists.
"Are you two returning to the island or traveling?" he asked. "My name is Xue Ziyuan. I'm from the Xue family in the imperial city of Dongqi Kingdom. I'm going to the island to take the entrance examination for disciples of the Qingxuan Lipo Mansion."
Ji Tang: "Ji Tang, this is my senior brother Su Jinzhou, we..."
Xue Ziyuan: "So you are two fellow Taoists from Su Xuanzong. I am so sorry for your disrespect!"
Jitang was interrupted in the middle of his words and didn't get annoyed, just smiled politely.
If she thought just now that this person didn't bump into her on purpose, it was a different story now.
It was obvious that he saw Su Jinzhou wearing the moon-white disciple uniform of Su Xuanzong, so he deliberately found an excuse to come up and talk to him.
Su Jinzhou: "Daoyou should be more careful next time. If you bump into my junior sister again, you may not be able to reach Haijinyunjian Island."
Xue Ziyuan laughed dryly: "Yes, yes, I will definitely be careful!"
He said, "You two Daoists already have sects. It seems you're here to train... or perhaps for fun? If there's anything you need from me, please let me know! To be honest, I've participated in the disciple assessments at the Qingxuan Lipo Mansion on the island three times in a row. I can't say I know the island very well, but I can say I'm very familiar with it. Haha, very familiar with it."
Ji Tang laughed and said, "Fellow Daoist, have you ever heard of the herb Tongyinghua?"
Xue Ziyuan's laughter stopped abruptly. "Copper, copper lily?"
Jitang nodded with a smile.
Xue Zi took a step closer, then suddenly stopped. Smiling, he waved at Su Jinzhou and stepped back half a step, covering his mouth with his fan. "Fellow Daoist, are you looking for the copper-flower flower to make medicine?"
The Suxuan Sect is the largest and most legitimate sect in Chenwuzhou. The sect has always been known for its openness, integrity and righteousness.
Who would believe that Su Xuanzong's disciples were making poison?
Jitang: "That's not the case."
Xue Ziyuan looked like he was willing to learn from her, but after waiting for a long time, he only saw her looking at him with a smile, but there was no further words. He was immediately anxious and worried, but he didn't know how to ask.
"I've heard something about it." Xue Ziyuan coughed and said, "Outside Baicao Xiaoyao Mansion is the largest copper-flower field on the island. However, that field is guarded by Baicao Xiaoyao Mansion, so it would be difficult for you to get any copper-flowers there. As for copper-flowers in other places, they appear sporadically, so it depends on your luck."
Ji Tang knew what was going on, "Thank you, fellow Daoist."
"You're welcome. I'd also like to ask you about the assessment of Xuanzong disciples. I hope you can give me some advice."
Jitang knew nothing about the sect's assessment and dragged Su Jinzhou over.
Su Jinzhou: "Fellow Daoist, you can ask me."
*
After three days of smooth sailing on the sea, the sea dragon boat entered the Fenglei Sea Area.
At first, everyone just felt that the sea breeze suddenly became stronger, making people unsteady on their feet, so a monk asked the crew why they hadn't activated the defensive formation yet.
The crew hurried to check the sea dragon boat's defense formation.
But they didn't wait for any reply from the crew members, the defensive array was not opened for a long time, and the wind was getting stronger and stronger.
The hurricane that threatened to overturn the sea dragon boat came suddenly, and many people lost their balance and fell heavily onto the deck. Then they heard the crew using the spiritual power amplifying magic tool on the boat to urge them to return to their rooms.
Jitang was strolling on the deck at this time. The sea dragon boat was swaying and she almost fell down. Like everyone else, she held on to the wooden handrail on the boat and staggered back to the house.
The sea dragon boat's defensive formation had not yet been activated, and the people on board were all cultivators below the Jindan stage, unable to withstand the wind and thunder mixed with violent spiritual power in the sea.
She walked into the fifteen-story attic standing on the boat, took the spiritual ladder to the sixth floor, and just as she reached the door, the door next to it opened.
Su Jinzhou lived next to her. He leaned out and said, "Ji Tang, come here."
Jitang walked to the side, and the sea dragon boat suddenly tilted sharply. Jitang was thrown into the air and fell heavily to the other end of the corridor.
A nightmare aura appeared in her hands, and at the same time a spiritual power was wrapped around her waist. Su Jinzhou pulled her back into the house, and Ji Tang also closed the door with a nightmare aura.
The nightmare spirit and spiritual power extended to the four corners and entangled the four upright iron poles in the house.
There are such iron poles in every room of the Sea Dragon Boat so that the monks can use them as handrails to stabilize their bodies after entering the wind and thunder sea area.
All the furniture in the room was fixed to the ground, and only the things the monks had placed on it were thrown all over the place.
Ji Tang and Su Jinzhou sat on the chairs, using their spiritual power and nightmare energy to fix themselves to the chairs.
The sea dragon boat was shaking violently, and Jitang started to feel dizzy after sitting in the chair for a while.
Ji Tang: "I've inquired about it. It takes some time to activate the defensive magic circle, so the sea dragon boat will activate the defensive magic circle in advance before entering the Wind and Thunder Sea. I don't know what happened this time. We have already entered the area of the Wind and Thunder Sea, and the magic circle is not yet activated. I have never encountered such a situation when riding a sea dragon boat before..."
Su Jinzhou: "Wait and see, the defensive formation may have already been activated."
Jitang nodded.
Another quarter of an hour passed, and the sea dragon boat still showed no signs of stopping. Not only that, the boat was shaking more and more as time went on.
Su Jinzhou: "I'll go out and take a look. You wait inside."
Ji Tang: "If I stay with you, I can look after you!"
Su Jinzhou hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay."
They couldn't even stand steadily and could only rely on spiritual power and nightmare energy to fix the furniture and move slowly.
When he went out, other monks also came out.
For a moment the corridor was filled with the sound of monks talking.
"My fellow Daoists, the defensive formation hasn't been activated yet, okay?"
"Which Taoist friend has the Mingshen Pill? I'll buy it! Ugh..."
"If the sea dragon boat doesn't stop, we'll die here!"
When Ji Tang and Su Jinzhou arrived at Lingxuan Ladder, there were already three or four cultivators there.
The person in front turned around and said to them, "The Lingxuan Ladder is no longer usable."
The Lingxuan Ladder is operated by spiritual power and spirals upwards. It is protected by spiritual power. Even the bumps of the sea dragon boat will not affect the use of the Lingxuan Ladder. But now it cannot be used.
The few of them had no choice but to go down the stairs at the end of the corridor. After finally reaching the first floor, Jitang heard someone screaming in front of him.
The monks following behind asked: "What happened in front?"
"ah!!!"
Screams were heard from the front. The cultivators behind couldn't see outside and asked anxiously, "Fellow Daoist in front? What's going on outside?"
No one answered him.
A group of people were stuck at the stairwell. Those in front didn't dare to leave, nor could they retreat. "Everyone, there might be something wrong outside. Should we go back first?"
The monks at the back said: "Let's go out and take a look! The sea dragon boat can't stop, and everyone can't bear it!"
The one in front was annoyed: "Fellow Daoist who said he wanted to go out, stop shouting from the back and come to the front and take a look outside."
The latter: "If I could go out, I would have gone out earlier. Can't you see so many people blocking the way?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the people blocking the stairs suddenly and spontaneously made room on both sides.
Jitang pulled Su Jinzhou to the side.
The cultivator in front couldn't help but laugh and said, "Now fellow Daoist can come over!"
The monk behind didn't speak for a long time.
"Why, fellow Daoist, don't you want to go out and take a look?"
The person in front took advantage of the space left by the stairs and hurried upstairs.
The next scene was kind of funny.
As soon as the monk in front left, the one behind came to the front, turned around and followed him upstairs. After a few times, the stairs were soon empty, and there was no one in front of Ji Tang and Su Jinzhou.
After waiting for a while, the people behind them also stumbled upstairs and returned to the house.
Jitang: "A bunch of cowards."
Su Jinzhou continued to go downstairs.
When they walked out of the stairs, they saw several monks lying outside, their life or death unknown.
Looking outside, the monks who had not entered the building in time were lying on the deck in all directions, including the crew members.
The sea dragon boat's defensive formation was set up in the cabin below the first floor of the attic. The current situation of the crew in the cabin was still unknown, and the crew on the deck were all unconscious.
The defensive formation has not been activated, but the sea dragon boat has already entered the wind and thunder sea area.
Half of the boat's fences were blown away by the hurricane, and the remaining half was also shaking. Many of the closely arranged wooden boards on the deck were lifted up. Ji Tang even wondered if the people lying on the deck were also swept into the sea.
Su Jinzhou first checked on the monks nearby, then shook his head and said, "They're all dead."
Ji Tang's expression was solemn. "There are no signs of wind or lightning around. What was the cause of that scream just now?"
Su Jinzhou observed them one by one: "They all had wounds as big as bowls, piercing through their chests." He turned one of them over, "and out through their backs."
Ji Tang suddenly looked towards the raging sea and said anxiously, "It might be a sea beast. Brother, come back first!"
Su Jinzhou also saw the mucus left around the wound at this time. He stood up and tied his spiritual power to the stair railing next to Jitang. Just as he was about to walk back, the sea dragon boat suddenly shook violently.
They both looked up.
Almost in an instant, a huge wave surged in front of the sea dragon boat, which was estimated to be a hundred meters high. Under the wave was like a big blue-black mouth, constantly sucking the sea dragon boat in.
In front of the huge waves, the giant Hailong Boat is like a mayfly.
With this wave, the sea dragon boat will be smashed to pieces and sink to the bottom!
Ji Tang acted decisively and took out magic weapons from his storage bag and put them on himself and Su Jinzhou.
Her nightmare had just caught the boat when a huge wave suddenly hit it.
The sea dragon boat made a loud and distorted sound, like a wail.
The terrifying sound of heavy squeezing kept reminding them that the boat was overwhelmed and had reached its limit.
When the huge wave hit, the entire sea dragon boat was swallowed up in an instant.
Jitang had a magic weapon to protect him, so he was not soaked by the sea water. However, he was swept by the huge waves, stumbling like a duckweed, and was thrown heavily into the sea.
In this wave, three magic weapons were scrapped.
Ji Tang held his breath and swam upstream, but the sea water under the huge waves kept surging, and Ji Tang was swept around, and soon another magic weapon was shattered.
Ji Tang was in a trance and felt like someone was holding him in someone's arms.
She looked over instinctively and saw Su Jinzhou looking at her anxiously.
Jitang moved the corners of his mouth hard and forced a smile.
Su Jinzhou's frown relaxed slightly and he gestured to her to leave first.
Ji Tang nodded and gestured with Su Jinzhou, but before she could gesture twice, she suddenly stopped -
Vertical pupils.
A huge vertical pupil gradually emerged from the dark blue deep sea, and in the blink of an eye it came close, right behind Su Jinzhou.
Su Jinzhou's tall figure was not even as tall as his black vertical pupils!
Ji Tang tightly grasped Su Jinzhou's arms, fearing that Su Jinzhou would move and disturb the owner of the vertical pupil.
