Wave No. 178 Arrives (3,4/4)

  "This should be the formation laid down by the ancient sword 'Men' all those years ago. After tens of thousands of years, its power is no longer what it used to be." Zhao Xuan couldn't help but sigh when he saw this.

  The ancient sword 'door' was so powerful that it blocked the demon clan outside the ancient continent for tens of thousands of years, but unfortunately, the human race is no longer as strong as it used to be. After the array's power disappears, the great disaster will befall the human race.

  Previously, she had hoped for the demons' victory, but now she hopes for humanity's victory, because defeat would mean annihilation.

  But Ye Mei did not express any opinion, but her mind was not idle, constantly thinking of ways to get rid of Qi Feng and the others, even secretly leaving marks, but they were all discovered by Qi Feng, and then she was properly punished.

  Now, when it comes to who Ye Mei hates the most, that would undoubtedly be Qi Feng. In her heart, she secretly cursed him, and if Qi Feng fell into her hands, she would definitely beat his butt to a pulp.

  While Zhi Feng saw this formation, he felt a sense of pride in his heart.

  The Demon Clan was able to conquer four continents in a row, and its strength is undeniable. The predecessors of the Ancient Sword 'Door' were unable to defeat them, but they could block them outside the 'door' for tens of thousands of years, and their strength can be seen at a glance.

  Especially when they finally disregarded life and death, using the entire sect's strength to seal the Ancient Desolate Continent, making Qi Feng, as a disciple of the ancient sword 'Men', also sincerely admire them.

  Seeing this formation, Qifeng Pufu saw the heroic appearance of the ancient sword 'Men' ancestor who had fought fiercely in those years, and subconsciously saluted to the formation.

  "Hmph!" In contrast to Qifeng's respect, the demon clan had an intense hatred for this formation. If it didn't exist, they would have already conquered the ancient continent tens of thousands of years ago and become the supreme rulers of the world.

  So, Ye Mei saw Qi Feng rushing towards this formation with a bow, and couldn't help but look askance.

  Zi Feng ignored her and walked directly towards the formation, then slowly reached out to touch it. The moment he made contact with it, the sword yuan force in his body trembled slightly, and afterwards he passed through without any obstruction. Suddenly, a boundless ocean appeared before his eyes.

  It was a beautiful scene he had never seen before, and for a moment he was stunned.

  "Qifeng, are you still there?" Zhao Xuan's voice came through the formation, instantly waking Qifeng up. He rubbed his head and walked back into the formation again.

  "How can I take you out?" asked Zhi Feng.

  "You will use the Sword Origin's power to envelop us, and that should be enough to take us out." Zhao Xuan wasn't very sure either, this was a result of some seniors from the Divine Race speculating, but whether it would actually work or not she didn't know.

  "Alright, I'll give it a try." With that, Qi Feng walked over to the two of them and placed his hands on their shoulders. He then activated his sword energy, enveloping them within it.

  In an instant, a thin layer of white mist appeared on their bodies, which was the protective sword aura. Although the sword aura was thinner than before, its defensive power had increased significantly, and this was the benefit of breaking through to a higher level.

  "Come with me!" With that, Qi Feng led them towards the formation. As soon as they came into contact with it, the protective sword aura trembled, and both of them felt a strong resistance blocking their way. However, in the end, they also followed him out.

  "How beautiful!" Even Zhao Xuan, who harbored a blood feud, couldn't help but exclaim when he saw the scenery here.

  "What's so surprising? I can see it every day." Ye Mei couldn't help but sneer.

  "How dare you say that, if it weren't for you guys, we wouldn't be able to see such a beautiful view?" Qi Feng glanced at her and said.

  "...The nocturnal beauty remained speechless, but she didn't think they were wrong. After all, the human race had exiled them to a land without 'fur', where they had spent tens of thousands of years drinking blood and eating raw flesh."

  This shame will never be forgotten by them.

  "The distance to Senluo Continent is very far, it's better to build a large ship, otherwise even with flying swords it would be difficult to cross." Zhao Xuan looked at the endless sea and felt that this trip to Senluo was not going to be an easy one.

  "What you said is not wrong, but an ordinary ship won't do. The terror of the sea far exceeds your imagination. I don't want to be swallowed up by the sea halfway and buried in a fish's belly." Yexi reminded.

  She wasn't trying to help Qifeng and the others, but rather she had a deep understanding of the terror of the vast ocean. Even if they were powerful demons, they could still fall into it with just a slight carelessness, and one can imagine how frightening that would be.

  She didn't want to die and couldn't stop Qifeng and the others from going to Senluo Continent, so for her own life's sake, she reminded them of one thing.

  "What's your high opinion?" Chi Feng said nothing. The ocean didn't have a special concept to him, in his view, it was just a slightly bigger river. After all, this was the first time he had seen it.

  It's not just him, I'm afraid that at present the entire ancient continent is unfamiliar with the sea, and many people have never even heard of it, so their understanding of it is naturally very limited.

  "It's best to use the Refining Vessel method, using a large amount of Jingjin or equivalent materials to refine a ship. This can effectively withstand the impact of huge waves and attacks from sea creatures. If possible, it's best to make two ships, in case of unexpected needs." Ye Mei said calmly.

  "Why didn't you say use Xuan Yue Sha Jing to build the ship? Da Huang Jing Jin, it's a wonder you thought of it!" Qi Feng couldn't help but spit out.

  The Great Desolate Jingjin is the most top-notch material in the Xiu Zhen realm, second only to the Xuanyue Sand Crystal. Its value is not trivial, and its quantity is extremely rare.

  Using such a divine object to build a ship is simply "extravagant".

  "I'm quite serious, wait till you've really seen the terror of the ocean, then you'll know I'm not joking." Ye Mei said very seriously.

  "This... " Qifeng could see that Yemei was indeed serious, but using the Great Desolate Jingjin to build a ship would be impossible, even if he sold himself, it wouldn't be enough.

  "Never mind, never mind. One look and I can tell you're penniless. Use mine instead." She looked at Qifeng and said, "Remove the seal on me, I'll take the boat."

  "Aren't you trying to play some trick?" Qifeng looked at her suspiciously, suddenly feeling that this girl deliberately mentioned using the Jingjin of the Great Wilderness to build a ship, and then took the initiative to do so, as if she was playing some kind of conspiracy.

  "What's with the 'showing off'? I'm trying to help you guys, and yet you say I'm showing off? Fine, I wasn't even willing to use it myself. You figure it out then." Ye Mei's small face was scrunched up in displeasure.

  "To be honest, I don't believe you, you're such a weirdo, I have to be on guard. Unless you swear that this time you won't do anything detrimental to us, I'll lift the seal." said Qi Feng.

  "I won't swear, you can believe it or not." Ye Mei shot him a white glance, her heart burning with anger. This was the only time she hadn't thought of scheming against them, yet they treated her like this, which made her very displeased.

  "That's nothing, compared to the demon tribe, I'd rather face the sea." Qi Feng shook his head, the sea was treacherous, but not necessarily fatal, but facing the demon tribe was undoubtedly a death sentence.

  "You..."

  "It's done." Qifeng interrupted her, and once again entered the formation. After a while, he dragged out a wooden boat and put it into the sea water, stirring up a layer of waves and foam.

  "You're planning to cross the ocean with this ship?" Ye Mei stared blankly at the... thing that could only be called a boat, finding it hard to imagine how they could ride such a vessel all the way to Senro Continent.

  "Otherwise?" Chi Feng glanced at him and then walked towards her.

  "Don't come any closer, I'd rather die than get on this boat." Ye Mei immediately backed away, taking a boat like this was simply asking to die. She was still so young, not yet married or having children, she didn't want to die.

  "This won't do at all." Qi Feng wouldn't let her get away, directly grabbing the collar of her clothes and jumping onto the boat, afterwards Zhao Xuan also followed up.

  Then, with a loud splash, the wooden boat slowly sailed away from the shore, embarking on their maiden voyage, and to say that they were somewhat 'excited' would be an understatement.

  Only she was bitter and gloomy, she felt that her future was so dark, without tomorrow.

  Time passed day by day, the ancient continent had completely disappeared before their eyes. Qi Feng suddenly missed the ancient continent, after all, it was the place where he grew up, and leaving suddenly didn't feel quite right.

  However, the weather these days is quite good, with gentle and beautiful winds, nothing as terrible as Ye Ni said, just a bit boring.

  But for them, boring days can be spent through cultivation, and it's not that hard to get by.

  But as time went by, the beauty of the night became harder to look at. On this day, she discovered a dark cloud floating in from afar and was so frightened that she immediately jumped up and shouted loudly at Qifeng: "Qifeng, quickly undo my seal, otherwise we will both die here."

  "What's all the fuss about? It's just a dark cloud. What's there to be afraid of?" Qi Feng thought it was no big deal, after all, he had encountered such weather before in the Ancient Wilderness Continent.

  "You don't understand, on the ancient continent, this kind of weather is nothing, but at sea it's completely different. You quickly lift the ban for me, otherwise we'll really all die, I'm serious." Ye Mei's face had already completely changed color, her voice was even trembling with a hint of tears.

  "This..." Zhi Feng also wavered a bit, but just then, a strong gust of wind blew in, and the boat began to shake violently. The wood creaked, making a "creaking" sound that was extremely piercing.

  "Let's listen to her, I also had a bad premonition just now." At this time, Zhao Xuan walked out of the cabin and advised.

  "Alright then!" Qifeng turned his head to look at Yexi and said, "You'd better not play any tricks, otherwise, I'll be the first one to kill you."

  "Don't worry, this time I won't take advantage of you. I just don't want to die here." Yexia saw Qifeng say this and felt a bit relieved, so she didn't argue with him and said this sentence.

  "Hmm!" Qifeng said, lifting the seal from Ye Mei's body. She then took out a golden-colored ship made entirely of Jīngjīn from the Great Wilderness.

  Before, Zhi Feng had seen the Great Desolate Jingjin, but that was just an illusion created by his imagination, not real. At this moment, seeing the golden light flashing on the ship, he still couldn't help feeling some shock in his heart.

  After all, so many top-grade spirit jades could be used to forge dozens or even hundreds of high-quality magic treasures. This is no small thing, and even a sect like the Qinglian Sword Sect couldn't take it lightly.

  "Don't look anymore, hurry up and go in, the storm is coming soon." Ye Mei took the lead and jumped in first, followed by Qi Feng and Zhao Xuan.

  They had just gone in, a huge wave came flying over, and in an instant, the wooden boat was capsized, then scattered, turning into a piece of wood rolling in the waves.

  "My dear." Qi Feng was startled by this scene, if they were still on that wooden boat before, I'm afraid the outcome would not be much different from that of the wooden boat, and it would be swallowed up by the huge waves in an instant.

  "What's most terrifying isn't the stormy waves, but rather the sea creatures. The stormy waves may be strong, but once one's cultivation reaches a certain level, they can be completely ignored. However, the sea creatures are different." Ye Mei's spirit remained tense and hadn't relaxed in the slightest even after boarding the Golden Vessel of the Great Wilderness.

  "Why didn't we see sea beasts before?" asked Zhi Feng.

  "Ordinary sea creatures are usually at the bottom of the ocean, and those on the surface are just ordinary goods. They can sense our strength and naturally won't come near. But once there's a storm, the powerful sea creatures living in the deep will rush out of the water, it's terrifying. Even if one of my tribe's great abilities encounters them, they'll be instantly killed with a slight carelessness." Ye Mei replied.

  "How terrifying!" Qi Feng's expression changed, the great power of the demon clan he had never seen before, but it was definitely much stronger than Wu Kong Sword and others. Such a terrifying existence could fall in front of the giant sea beast, its strength can be imagined.

  "One is not terrifying, what's terrifying is hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands." Ye Mei recalled a scene from many years ago, her expression becoming even colder, and immediately said: "Don't be stunned, quickly input your powers into that crystal ball, we must leave this place as soon as possible. I have an ominous premonition, staying here any longer will be troublesome."

  "How is it that even the ships made of Jingjin, the hardest material in the vast wilderness, cannot withstand the attack of sea beasts?" Zhao Xuan was also surprised. Jingjin was indeed the hardest material, and its hardness before refinement could be compared to that of a top-grade Daoist treasure. It was hard to imagine what kind of thing could break it.

  "They can't destroy the ship, but what they fear is being swallowed up by it. If that happens, we'll never be able to get out," Yexia replied.

  "This..."

  "Stop stalling, let's go." Yexia interrupted them, because the unease in her heart was getting thicker and she didn't want to stay here for a moment longer.

  "Alright!" Qi Feng and Zhao Xuan responded in unison, hastily arriving beside the crystal ball, then channeling their internal energy into it without reservation.

  The next moment, the crystal ball burst out with a faint light, as if it had been 'activated', and then the entire boat turned into a golden line and darted away into the distance.

  But just then a huge shape suddenly leaped up from under the water and swallowed them all in one gulp.

  "It's all over!" Ye Mei suddenly lost all her strength and collapsed onto the cabin floor, while Qi Feng also realized what had happened at this time, his expression greatly changed.
