Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant

Chapter 656: Chapter 41: West Sea_3 Chapter 656: Chapter 41: West Sea_3 Hu Zaixi was highly supportive of his cultivation.

Apart from assisting him in cultivating the True Yang Wutu Scripture, he had also worked together with Ling Weizi to infer the Taiyi True Fire, while he had managed to infer it himself, yet comparing with Hu Zaixi’s version did indeed yield substantial gains.

As for Hu Zaixi, he was certainly grateful and consequently he naturally developed quite a fondness for the disciples of Thick Earth Peak.

“I can’t believe the grandmaster also got drawn….”

Exclaimed Zhen Boen:

“However, luckily the southern shore of the West Sea Country has already been stabilized by Grandmaster Guan as of now, so at most there are just some low-rank cultivators who have been defeated and dispersed.

Hence the mission should not be too difficult, unlike before, when several waves of disciples who patrolled Daohai Town suffered significant losses.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Ba was somewhat curious: “Daohai Town?”

These past few days, he had also specifically sought to understand some of the situation in West Sea Country, however, the news he had gathered from Xuanwu Market was rather fragmentary with no particularly useful information.

Noticing that Wang Ba was not too familiar with it, Zhen Boen quickly explained:

“The Daohai Town and Yundang that we are heading to, used to be the very spots where cultivators from the Tupi and Xituo continents crossed the sea and landed….If you set sail from Yundang or Daohai Town, there is a section of reefs and archipelago about a hundred li away, which is known as Elong Beach, and a short distance west of Elong Beach, you will encounter the ‘sea barrier’….”

“What is a sea barrier?”

Wang Ba interrupted out of curiosity.

“A ‘sea barrier’…

I don’t know much about it, it’s something I heard about from other senior disciples, apparently it’s due to this barrier the demonic beasts in the deep sea can’t easily invade near the shore….”

Zhen Boen looked embarrassed.

Hearing this, Wang Ba was at a loss, he couldn’t imagine what this sea barrier was like.

Luckily their mission didn’t require them to go out to sea, just in Daohai Town and Yundang.

He wasn’t really clear about the specifics of the patrol content, after getting on the cloud ship, everyone was focused on their own cultivation and hardly interacted.

They have already been flying non-stop for three days.

The journey seemed to be ongoing.

However, Wang Ba’s train of thought did not last for long, Deacon Shi who was controlling the cloud ship opened his eyes and announced:

“We are here.”

We are here?

Wang Ba could not help but glance towards the ground.

He could faintly see the towns, forests, and lakes below….

But there was no sea in sight.

Wang Ba was slightly confused.

Is this the West Sea Country?

It wasn’t just Wang Ba, a lot of people on the cloud boat who were on their first patrol mission were also looking at the ground with a confused expression.

Soon, the cloud boat began to descend rapidly.

Down below, a city rapidly magnified in Wang Ba’s sight.

In just a blink of an eye, a massive city with a population teeming with people appeared within Wang Ba’s view.

“Such a big city!

Are all the people in there… mortal?!”

Upon seeing the city below, Wang Ba’s face revealed a look of surprise.

Of course, not all were mortals inside, but he could sense the aura, cultivators did not constitute the majority, mortals were the majority of this city’s population.

A city where mortals were the majority possessed such a large size, this far exceeded Wang Ba’s previous understanding of mortal cities.

At least, within the borders of the Chen and Yan states he had visited, it was inconceivable for a mortal’s city to be of this magnitude, even the biggest city compared to this one was not even one tenth of its size.

What was key was, seeing the cloud boat descending from the sky, the mortals here did not display the fear that the mortals from Yan state’s city did when they saw it, instead many waved energetically, enthusiastically greeting them.

Thier vitality fell into Wang Ba’s eyes, appearing especially full of life.

While not as robust as the cultivators, they had almost reached a state where they were free from all disease.

Seemingly in a trance, he saw the mortals below greeting towards them, it was as if he had sensed an invisible force, surging within the city.

Inside the cloud boat, the young cultivators who were out for the first time were also clearly taken aback.

Hovering above this city, even their spiritual senses felt highly agile.

However, Deacon Shi who seldom spoke, did say during this moment:

“The hearts of the people can be for or against, it is another form of worldly power and for cultivators, it does have an impact….However, the true essence of cultivators is rooted in mortal human beings.”

“Therefore, on your journey to the West Sea Country, if possible, it is best for everyone to protect the mortals around them.”

Upon hearing Deacon Shi’s words, Wang Ba deeply pondered over them.

This place seems to be still within Jin’s territory, what puzzled him, however, was why the cloud boat stopped here.

But his confusion was quickly resolved.

With the descent of the Cloud Boat, he soon noticed a faint touch of deep black in a lake within the city wall below.

“We’ll go down first.”

Without explaining, Deacon Shi merely ordered.

Xi Wushang and Ji Yuan were calm and cool, leaving the Cloud Ship first, others hurriedly trailed after them.

Soon, Deacon Shi put away the Cloud Ship, before taking out a boat resembling the shape of a ray.

The small boat quickly expanded and soon measured more than two zhangs.

“Let’s go, we’re going up.”

Deacon Shi spoke again.

Even though everyone wondered about his intentions, they all followed his instructions.

Even though the small boat was nearly two zhangs in length, it was slightly difficult to accommodate fifteen people.

Seeing everyone crowded in the small boat, Liang Zhongkang couldn’t help but frown:

“Doesn’t Deacon Shi not have any better Spirit Boats?

Why must everyone be squeezed in here?”
