Chapter 1295 610: Arrival of the Sect Members
The Immortals each boarded the ship, landing on the deck, and laughed together, "That's right. The Yellow Qi is too heavy, the Mysterious Qi too light; it's truly difficult to walk steadily on the ocean surface. Though the girl is a sly merchant, we still have no choice but to take this boat."
The girl on the ship had rosy lips and white teeth, her smile was sunny, seemingly taking others' calling her a sly merchant as a great compliment.
"We are not sly merchants, but we know some fellow cultivators like to walk and will surely be exhausted, so we're here to make some hard-earned money."
The girl on the ship approached with a smile, asking, "Where are you all headed?"
The crowd remained silent, collectively looking at Chen Shi.
Chen Shi laughed, "To the Thick Virtue and Bright Heaven Palace."
The other Immortals echoed, "We're also headed to the Thick Virtue and Bright Heaven Palace."
"Thick Virtue and Bright Heaven Palace?"
The girl was quite shocked, giving Chen Shi a deep look with a slightly solemn expression, "That is Emperor Houtu's territory, even if we want to go there, I'm afraid our ship might not make it... Mute, I'll steer the ship, you collect the money."
A mute came over, making gestures to everyone. After each paid, the ship gave a slight pause and headed into the depths of the ocean.
The Xuanhuang Sea was like an ocean formed of clouds, with clouds forming waves. As the ship traveled, it would sometimes move upward to the cloud tops, and sometimes to the valley bottom, quite a marvel.
Only then did Chen Shi notice the thick chain at the front of the ship, emerging from the cabin with the other end submerged into the Xuanhuang Sea, as if something in the sea was dragging this ship forward.
A giant sea beast swam between two Yellow Qi waves, revealing broad fins like raised flags.
It was a big fish, with a blue back and red belly, spindle-shaped body, and whenever it swam in the Xuanhuang Sea, its scales emitted bursts of light, forming unique Dao Pattern shape patterns, making it thrive in the Xuanhuang Sea.
"This is a creature from the Xuanhuang Sea!"
Chen Shi was greatly surprised, as this Xuanhuang Sea is named as such but contains no seawater, only Yellow Qi. Unexpectedly, there is a creature capable of living here!
"I wonder if it's edible?"
Black Pot also craned his neck to look around. Chen Shi said, "Black Pot, ask them whether this fish is tasty and how to eat it later."
Black Pot nodded repeatedly.
The big fish in the Xuanhuang Sea seemed to hear his words, turning its head to look back with resentment.
Chen Shi was surprised, "It can understand!"
"Young man!"
The big fish in the sea spoke in a muffled voice, "I have lived for eighteen thousand years, and you are the first to want to eat me upon meeting!"
Chen Shi was embarrassed and apologized repeatedly.
At this time, the young man with a folding fan behind them smiled faintly and said, "There are two pieces of merit, but we have more than ten people here, how should the merit be divided?"
The girl with a white mink wrapped around her neck laughed, "How else can it be divided? Naturally, whoever seizes the merit will divide the merit."
The boy playing the flute chuckled, "So only two people can gain merit? The leaders on the Immortal Slaying List, the first and second, aren't cheap, either of them is worth a Holy Land, capable of elevating one to Taiyi Golden Immortal level! Who owns these two Holy Lands?"
The elderly woman trimming her nails with golden scissors laughed, "Two Holy Lands can buy you all off? According to this old woman, the value of the first and second is far beyond just two Holy Lands. They've stolen countless Dao Realms from famous Immortals and taken countless Earth Treasure Spirit Roots. Their value lies in there!"
Everyone's eyes lit up, and their breath became somewhat rapid.
Chen Shi and Black Pot were ranked second and first on the Immortal Slaying List, and the afflicted parties were prominent Immortals in the Earth Immortal Realm, offering high prices—Cultivation Techniques, Spirit Pills, Holy Lands, Magical Treasures—everything needed to attract countless Immortals.
But when they searched for traces of Chen Shi and Black Pot across the Earth Immortal Realm, they couldn't find them.
Some even speculated that Chen Shi and Black Pot escaped to the Lower Realm, searching but to no avail.
Unexpectedly, they encountered Chen Shi and Black Pot in Fen Yin Province.
Previously, they weren't sure if they were the ones on the Immortal Slaying List because the second person was faceless. But upon seeing Black Pot's shape and Chen Shi's back, they confirmed it was indeed one person and one dog from the list!
The reward of two Holy Lands was indeed enticing, but the old woman's proposal was even more tempting.
Though the two Holy Lands were good, Cultivation Techniques, Immortal Pills, and Magical Treasures from the Golden Immortal Realm were also invaluable. However, compared to the Earth Treasure Spirit Roots, they were insignificant.
Moreover, this person and dog had stolen countless Earth Treasure Spirit Roots!
At this moment, a big fat monk holding a Golden Bowl with eyes squinted like a Buddha in a temple laughed, "Even those guarding so many Earth Treasure Spirit Roots need to have the life to use them. Take these two benefactors for example; even if they possess hundreds of Earth Treasure Spirit Roots, they cannot use them."
The White Mink Girl nodded, "If we snatch the Earth Treasure Spirit Roots from them, we will then top the Immortal Slaying List as number one and two. The rewards are not worth it."
"Then the question returns, how do we divide the two Holy Lands?" The young man with a folding fan smiled.
Everyone frowned, cautiously looking around, wary of others.
At this moment, a crisp laugh echoed, "You haven't captured anyone yet but are already discussing dividing the spoils. Aren't you afraid you can't get them?"
The crowd followed the voice and saw the speaker was the girl who had quadrupled the price, smiling at them.
That girl was sweet and charming, with a slightly plump baby face, giving an impression of youthfulness, and her smile showed no hint of scheming as she said, "The infamous Dao Realm dual thieves can even enter and exit the Immortal Monarch's Dao Realm; their strength is extraordinary. Are you really their match? Beware of risking your own life."
