Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant

Chapter 658: Chapter 41 West Sea_5 Chapter 658: Chapter 41 West Sea_5 Whoosh!

The boat flew into midair.

Looking down, Wang Ba realized they had just flown out of a hidden river in a mountain gorge.

The mana that wrapped around the boat receded, and the salty sea breeze swept over them all.

“Is this the West Sea Country?”

Cautionly, Wang Ba flew out of the boat with the others, looking around.

He noticed the spiritual energy here was far less abundant than in Jin, only slightly better than Yan State.

However, in the eyes of the cultivators from Jin, this place was undoubtedly barren.

...

One absent-minded intake of breath could deplete the spiritual energy here.

If not for their mission, they would not have come here at all.

“You should head to Fengyu Mountain as soon as possible and complete your mission.

This place is not suitable for prolonged stay,” said Deacon Shi seriously.

He did not disembark from the Iron Ray Boat but stayed on it, giving warnings.

Then he turned to Lou Yi, a disciple from Qianliu Peak next to him and said, “Do well.”

“We shall meet again, everyone,” Deacon Shi said, and immediately took the boat and swiftly submerged back into the hidden river.

In the blink of an eye, he disappeared.

Seeing Deacon Shi leave so quickly, some young cultivators who were carrying out a task for the first time couldn’t help but get nervous.

However, both Ji Yuan and Xi Wushang, who had gone out multiple times and had abundant experience said,

“We should head to Fengyu Mountain first; it’s our base on the southern shoreline of West Sea Country.

Once we have a clear understanding, we will go our separate ways.”

They quickly produced a map, adjusted the altitude, checked their current location, and quickly confirmed their position.

They were very near to Fengyu Mountain, only tens of thousands of li away.

Xi Wushang immediately agreed.

Once the two Golden Core cultivators, who were the only ones in the team, came to a consensus, all other cultivators didn’t argue and, according to the map, flew straight towards Fengyu Mountain.

Flying mid-air, they had a bird’s eye view of West Sea Country.

Desolate and bleak.

After flying several hundred li, they finally saw a city that wasn’t big or small.

However, this city was already completely deserted; apart from some wild beasts common among mortals, even spirit beasts were unwilling to stay here.

It was a stark contrast to Jin, where there was a bustling city every few tens of li.

Apart from this, they occasionally saw villages.

The villagers, upon seeing them in the sky, immediately took refuge in their own houses.

As if avoiding the plague.

Seeing this, the young cultivators from the Wanxiang Sect felt a sense of heaviness in their hearts.

Watching this, Wang Ba only felt a strange sense of familiarity.

Whether it was Chen State or Yan State…

all mortals were more or less the same.

Because it was close to Jin, conditions were initially better.

However, with the invasion of cultivators from the three continents, peace no longer existed in this land.

And if the cultivators from the three continents successfully landed and occupied West Sea Country, then perhaps the present condition of West Sea Country might also be the future of Jin.

Thinking of these, Wang Ba also couldn’t help but feel heavy-hearted.

The reaction of the mortals from West Sea Country quickly made them lose the novelty they felt upon their initial arrival.

The group continued to fly towards Fengyu Mountain without stopping.

However, as they flew over a small city, Xi Wushang suddenly let out a soft exclamation.

Ji Yuan also sensed something quickly; he abruptly stopped and looked down.

Immediately, his face darkened.

“Damn Tupi Continent tresspassers!”

“Bastards!”

Without a sound, the dagger at his waist was unsheathed and dropped below.

Wang Ba also looked down at the small city, but he couldn’t see anything unusual.

With a thought, his spiritual sense spread out, and his face immediately darkened:

“Indeed, they should die.”

Inside the city which Wang Ba’s spiritual sense could perceive, the nearly ten thousand residents seemed to live and act normally.

However, the flesh and blood inside these residents were already entirely drained.

They were kept alive only by an inexplicably mysterious will, giving the illusion as if they were still living.

Without his level III spiritual soul at a high stage, he might not have been able to see this flaw.

Very soon.

An unwilling and angry howl abruptly rang out from the city.

In a blink of an eye, a dagger flew up from below with a weird-looking skull with feathers stabbed into it, tied to the blade.

The skull’s eyes remained wide open, seemingly still full of anger.

However, the moment the skull approached Ji Yuan, Xi Wushang urgently said, “Be careful, it’s a trap!”

But it was too late.

The seemingly deceased skull suddenly opened its mouth.

A winged snake flew straight out, making a ‘whoosh’ sound towards Ji Yuan’s face!

Ji Yuan’s face remained unchanged.

His short sword flashed a bright light and detached from the handle, slicing the strange snake into two pieces.

In an instant, it was crushed into countless pieces by the sword-light.

However, the skull was not playing dead anymore.

It turned to look at Ji Yuan and the others.

There was a hint of surprise in its eyes, soon replaced by madness:

“We just…want to live!”

“If we cannot live, you will die with us!”

The voice was filled with a thick accent, full of hysteria.

At this moment, Ji Yuan’s expression changed dramatically!

He swiftly looked down at the city below.

There, countless terrifying blood lights suddenly rose, surrounding everyone….

“Retreat quickly!”

He yelled out urgently.

But just before he opened his mouth, Wang Ba saw a silhouette fly to his front at an incredible speed, with a shield of condensed mana quickly forming around them.

“Too…..late!”

The skull with a distorted expression was starting to release an overwhelming aura.

Its eyes were filled with the last hint of madness.

But at that moment.

Ding.

A clear and melodious ringing sound of a sword.

Then a sword light, leaping, jumped lightly from a distance, and then…..

landed right between the skull’s eyebrows.

In the skull’s pupils, there seemed to be a recognition of this sword light.

The original madness disappeared in an instant, leaving behind a trace of deep horror!

“You…”

“Crack!”

A crisp sound resonated.

The skull was split into two like a fruit, then immediately drowned by the sword light…

Looking at the familiar sword light, Wang Ba felt a jolt of surprise and quickly looked into the distance.

From far away, a figure was coming over, treading on air.
