Xue Kong looked towards where he was. There was no sign of human habitation in the wild land. There were only countless poisonous insects and wild beasts, as well as ferocious and mysterious monsters. They were lurking in the dense jungle, ready to give a fatal blow to anyone who stepped in at any time.
Without humans, it would be impossible to comprehend one's own path and become a god.
Think of this.
Xue Kong took out the small Dou Zhuan Xing Yi formation, and when Hong Lian approached, he activated the formation without hesitation.
Xue Kong didn't know where he would be teleported to by this formation.
Now we can only move forward according to the formation.
…
The world gradually became colder.
A few months later, winter arrived with the arrival of a cold wind, howling across the sky.
The first thing the cold wind brought was heavy rain.
The sky and the earth were connected into a rain curtain, covering the gradually cold world with a layer of ice and rain mist, making the world not only even colder, but also with tiny snowflakes falling from the sky.
On the vast ocean, a fishing boat was drifting on the sea.
The waves slammed against the side of the boat mercilessly, and this not-so-big fishing boat could only maintain stability with difficulty in the turbulent sea.
Like a thin leaf, it fell into the sea and swayed weakly with the waves.
"Damn it, the waves are getting bigger and bigger. If they keep going like this, I'm afraid it will be a problem whether we can get anything back safely, let alone anything else."
At the bow of the fishing boat, an inexperienced young man desperately grabbed his hat, opened his eyes wide in the strong wind, and barely glanced at the surging waves under the dim sky.
"It's snowing." A white-haired old man walked out of the cabin. He tightened his clothes, raised his head and looked at the not-so-big snowflakes that had fallen not long ago.
"Young man, put away your courage and don't panic."
The old man walked onto the deck and glanced at the young man. "It's just a small wind and waves. Now that the snow isn't falling any more, set sail and return. We'll come back when the snow settles."
"Master Zhong, you are knowledgeable and experienced. What is going on here?" the young man asked in confusion.
The old man surnamed Zhong shook his head slightly. "The sea is full of changeable weather and the weather is unpredictable. This is normal. According to the season, it's about time for snow. Let's return."
"Okay." The young man had great respect for Mr. Zhong, and immediately gave instructions to the workers on the side of the ship without saying a word.
No one noticed that at this moment, there were two people above them, staring at them quietly.
Xue Kong looked down at everyone on the boat with a calm gaze.
Honglian stood aside without saying anything, just wondering about Xue Kong's plan.
Not long after, Honglian's eyes moved, and she saw a strange-looking marine creature hovering at the bottom of the fishing boat, and it seemed to have bad intentions.
"A demon beast in the Qi Condensation Stage... There are only mortals on this ship, no cultivators, they are probably doomed to die." Honglian said lightly.
Xue Kong didn't say anything, just looked down, and no one knew what he was thinking.
However.
The Qi Condensation Stage monster in Honglian's sight did not attack the fishing boat.
On the boat, Mr. Zhong stood at the bow, put his fingers in his mouth, blew a whistle, and then shouted, "Good boy, let's go home."
The young man smiled and looked towards the bow of the ship.
There was a loud splash and a huge noise coming from the bottom of the boat, as if something had drilled out from the bottom of the sea. Then, the thing jumped onto the bow, revealing a small figure that was not even as tall as Mr. Zhong's waist.
"Mr. Zhong, Tiying is becoming more and more obedient to you. He comes back immediately when he hears your voice. He's really like a baby."
Elder Zhong stroked the crying baby with his hand and said, "He is the child of the sea. His appearance is a little strange, but he is very human. You must not get close to him. He only kisses me."
The crying baby was short, with webbed limbs and smooth, inky black skin all over his body, like a human-shaped black fish.
But, he has facial features.
Although it was a little distorted, the eyes, ears, mouth and nose could still be seen. There was no white in the eyes, only black pupils, which looked quite creepy.
But under Mr. Zhong's touch, the crying baby showed an expression of enjoyment, humming and making the sounds of a baby when it is comfortable.
"Look at what you said. Even if you let us get close, we wouldn't dare."
The young man waved his hand. "I've heard from the immortals that there are creatures in the world called demon beasts. They are ferocious and bloodthirsty, with extraordinary powers. The crying baby has a strange appearance, and it can wreak havoc in this sea. I think it's also a demon beast."
"When I first met him, he was lying on the beach, dying. After I brought him home and healed, his cries and every move he made were like a child... That's why I gave him this name."
There was a loving look in Old Zhong's eyes. He treated the crying baby as his own child, especially after he found out that the crying baby was only close to him and not to anyone else.
Over the years, with Tiying's help, we have always had huge catches when we go fishing at sea.
The safety factor is also greatly increased.
To Mr. Zhong, this is not just a monster, not just a child, but an inseparable part of his life.
Tiying seemed to understand that Mr. Zhong liked her.
He hummed, stretched out his hands, put his arms around Mr. Zhong's neck, and rubbed it affectionately.
"As a demon beast, it is so close to a mortal. This beast is quite interesting." Honglian's eyes fell on the crying baby beast with a look of surprise.
"My journey to becoming a god began on this fishing boat." Xue Kong said softly.
Then he took a step forward, his figure disappeared from the spot, and teleported away.
Honglian felt very confused.
Can this small fishing boat help him feel his own way and become a god?
