"What?" Shi Yan was dumbstruck, looking at Zhao Feng with a puzzled face. "Is that old man famous?"
"You will know when you come to the Divine Great Land." Zhao Feng smiled mysteriously. "Even the Pure Land people have to respect him a lot. I didn’t expect that this young man is that old man’s successor. No wonder why."
Shi Yan was surprised.
"Alright. We look forward to seeing you soon in the Divine Great Land. We should go now." Zhao Feng beamed a smile, said to Li Yue and the others, and then bid a farewell.
"Take care." Cai Yi smiled, walking over and looking at Shi Yan. She seemed to have so many things to say to him. However, in the end, she just said, "Remember to find me. If you don’t come to see me, I’ll find you."
"Find me?" Shi Yan beamed a smile and didn’t seem to understand her thinking. "You and I might have a few opportunities to see each other in the Divine Great Land in the future. Anyway, we don’t need to meet again."
"You are such a cold guy." Cai Yi harrumphed and suddenly said, "That’s alright. I’ll find you as there’re still some things that I need to tell you." Her tone was ambiguous.
Everyone suddenly burst out in laughter, expressing a thoughtful face.
"Goodbye," Cai Yi smiled and whispered. She turned around, glancing at the Lao brothers.
"Thank you, brother. We will remember your kindness." The Lao brothers said simultaneously.
Shi Yan nodded with a smile.
"Let’s go. We will return together. Having regards for Shi Yan, we will protect you guys on the way back." Zhao Feng smiled and said to Cai Yi and the Lao brothers.
"Goodbye," Shi Yan waved his hands, watching Cai Yi, Zhao Feng, and the others leave slowly, disappearing together with Ye Zhang Feng’s group.
Not long after that, there were only Shi Yan, Chi Xiao, Zuo Xu, and Zuo Shi left on the island.
"Do you have the Lie Original Fluid?" Waiting until after everyone left, Chi Xiao took a deep breath and asked with a solemn countenance.
"Yes," Shi Yan smiled and nodded. "When you enter the Third Sky of Spirit Realm, remember to find me. I’ll definitely give you the Life Original Fluid if I have it." After pausing for a while, he looked at Zuo Xu and Zuo Shi, "You guys, too."
The three of them revealed grateful faces.
Chi Xiao and the other two people nodded.
A group of four people left this exotic land, jumping into the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist and heading to the Endless Sea.
…
On a certain day…
Shi Yan and the other three people crossed the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist and finally came to the border of some land. Seeing the sunlight, they all had a feeling of being reborn.
The sky was full of stars, which secretly showered and penetrated into Shi Yan’s martial spirit in a mysterious way, which ordinary people couldn’t recognize.
Shi Yan revealed an excited face with happy eyes.
It was unknown why but he could sense that the speed of the stars penetrating into his body was obviously three times faster than when he had first entered the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist.
Naked eyes could not see it clearly, but still could realize the stars overwhelming the sky. They flew down like a shower and then disappeared into his martial spirit, quietly reinforcing his Star Martial Spirit.
Perhaps when he entered the Sky Realm in that exotic land, the mysterious energy had enhanced his Star Martial Spirit, so that it could accommodate more of the star power.
In short, the absorption capacity of the Star martial Spirit had substantially increased, which was an indisputable fact.
The three people, Chi Xiao, Zuo Xu, and Zuo Shi couldn’t realize the transformation in Shi Yan’s body either. They could only see his happy face and knew that he was probably feeling good.
"What’s the matter?" Zuo Xu smiled and asked, "Is it because seeing the sun makes you feel heartedly joyful? When you come out after a long time in the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist, the feeling is really good, isn’t it?"
Shi Yan didn’t say anything, just nodded and smiled.
"The Endless Sea is really in a complicated situation?" Chi Xiao looked over at the west with a solemn face. His eyes brightened. "Are the Demon Dwellers and the Dark Dwellers both in the Endless Sea?"
"Yes."
"It's terrible. Seems like we have to make a detour since that place should be very dangerous at this time. It’s the best if we can avoid crossing the Endless Sea." Chi Xiao kept silent for a while and then said, "We have to separate here I guess."
Shi Yan nodded and said, "After going back to the Merchant Union, please tell my grandfather not to be too worried about the Merchant Union’s situation. Wait until I’m done with the things in the Endless Sea. I will think of a solution to help you. Well, if it’s possible, I will send someone to pick you up and let you leave that small Merchant Union."
Zuo Shi nodded constantly and said happily, "That’s very good. Only after having a journey out of that place have we now realized that our Merchant Union is really small. The cultivation base of the warriors of our place also seems to be too low. Look at the warriors from the Divine Great Land, although they are at the same age as us, they have already reached the Nirvana or Sky Realm. I don’t want to be a frog in a well forever."
Chi Xiao revealed a wry smile, reluctantly shook his head and let out a sigh.
In the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist this time, he had been injured severely. Seeing the young warriors who were already at the Sky Realm, he couldn’t help but feel unspeakably frustrated.
Especially Shi Yan.
Since he left the Merchant Union, he had already entered the Sky Realm from the Disaster Realm in just a few years. That cultivation speed was just incredible.
Chi Xiao didn’t know that it was because of the impact of the mysterious martial spirit on his body. He just thought that it was the impact of the environment, and for the first time, he was aware of how important a good cultivation environment was to warriors.
"After going back this time, we will prepare to leave the Merchant Union. Rest assured, I will definitely tell your grandfather about your current situation." Zuo Xu took a deep breath, smiled, and said, "Your grandfather would not have expected that you have already surpassed him and all other predecessors of the Shi family."
Shi Yan burst into laughter.
"You have to promise that when we see each other again, you will bring us a greater surprise." Chi Xiao looked at him deeply and said, "You have too many miracles. I think that one day, you can surpass those who are called high-class warriors and stand on the summit above all of them. I’m certain about that day."
"Thank you for your kind words," Shi Yan beamed a smile.
Chi Xiao and the other two people kept giving him compliments for a while and then talked about the Merchant Union’s situation. Finally, they bid farewell outside the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist and took a detour to go back to the Merchant Union.
Shi Yan looked at the sea far away and suddenly burst out laughing, turning into a bunch of starlights and flying straight to the Vault of Heaven Sea Area.
…
The Endless Sea.
One year had quickly passed. The five Sea territories were constantly at war. Demon Dwellers, Dark Dwellers, Humans, and beasts all appeared on those five Seas. Because of the cultivation materials and racial hatred, they fought against each other and never subsided.
The Kyara Sea and the Yuanluo Sea now became the place of the Demon Dwellers and the Dark Dwellers. The Dark Dwellers temporarily occupied the Kyara Sea while the Yuanluo Sea was dominated by the Demon Dwellers. Among the five big Sea Areas, only the three left belonged to human warriors. Because of the invasion of the two big races, the Endless Sea was continuously facing wars, and didn’t seem like it would settle anytime soon.
The border between the Kyara Sea and the Yuanluo Sea was the region that linked with the three big Seas. It was unknown how many creatures had died there.
Thousands of pagans and warriors fought in the Endless Sea, turning the Endless Sea into a Shura blood field with corpses everywhere.
Today, on a vast island of the Black Sea, human warriors and pagan warriors were still fighting. After the bloody battle had finished, all the human warriors were beheaded. No one could escape.
Corpses were everywhere on the island, including humans, Demon Dwellers, demon beasts, and more.
A figure quietly appeared in the piles of bones, wandering around the island with stingy blood smell. He frowned and revealed a dark complexion.
There was no one left on the island. The man released his soul consciousness and realized that nobody existed on the island, even with the smallest surging vitality.
On this vast island, only vultures were flying and excitedly eating the corpses. Mosquitoes were scattered around, and the pungent stench rose. It was an extremely horrible scene.
Getting away from the corpses, he stopped for a short while and then crossed the island, flying towards the Wind Cloud Island.
The Wind Cloud Island was situated between the Yuanluo Sea and the Black Sea. The Heaven and Earth aura there was very thin, so very few warriors stayed here. Previously, since the Xia family left the Kyara Sea, they temporarily settled in the Wind Cloud Island as they didn’t yield to the Endless Sea warriors.
Returning to the Endless Sea, he didn’t know clearly about the situation there and didn’t dare to show up. To get news of the Xia family, his only way was to explore and eavesdrop on the other forces’ warriors.
All the way there, he deliberately avoided the islands where warriors gathered, hid his whereabouts, and used some special way to cover up his appearance, as he didn’t want other people to recognize his identity.
The Endless Sea’s situation was convoluted. Only after knowing the situation thoroughly would he be able to determine the next step to take.
Going to the Wind Cloud Island, he released his soul consciousness to detect lives on the island. Wherever his soul consciousness passed, no trace of life responded. He couldn’t even detect a beast on the whole island. This place was full of dead aura and seemed like it had been barren for a long time.
Walking around the island, he still couldn’t find any human warriors or pagans, or even human bones for that matter. It seemed civilians here had left this desolated island a long time ago.
He obviously couldn’t find the Xia family either.
Dark clouds suddenly covered the sky.
In the clouds, a dark aura slowly bred, as strange energy movements came out from time to time. Shi Yan was startled. He frowned while looking at the dark clouds. His face became solemn while he was secretly on alert.
