Chapter 386: The Taboo of the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea
On the first day, the World Martial Arts Competition was the preliminary competition, and this preliminary competition alone made the people of the world boil and marvel at the strength of martial arts.
The collision of real powers, beyond ordinary bullets and dazzling, makes people yearn for it.
The broadcast of the World Martial Arts Association has made the strength of martial arts more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and deepened the enthusiasm of ordinary people to practice martial arts.
At the end of the first day of competition, more than 100 people advanced, and these 100 people will start tomorrow in a team of two to duel one-on-one to determine the semi-finalists.
That was the end of the first day.
After dinner, Mu Li took the students of the Shenwu Academy for a walk on the Eight Immortals Island.
The students proposed to take a yacht around the Eight Immortals to see the night view.
Several people came to the place where the yacht was rented, and the owner was cleaning up and closing.
"Boss, is this closing? There are a lot of people who come out to play at night......" one student exclaimed.
"You're outsiders...... "The boss glanced at them.
"At night in the Eight Immortals, all the ships do not go to sea, and the yachts and boats do not go offshore." The boss said solemnly.
"Why? Is it the above? That's weird, right? "The students were puzzled.
The boss looked at the dark sea in the distance, revealing a look of fear.
"If you don't go to sea, you don't go to sea, it's an unwritten rule, everyone is following it, I'm going to get off work, you'd better not run to the sea without worrying about yourself......" The boss said and closed the door, and quickly left the beach.
The seaside at night of the Eight Immortals is very bleak and not normal at all.
Other tourist islands are lit up at night and there are many tourists.
In desperation, a few people could only go back to the street and order something to eat at a food stall.
"Hey, the sea has been even more unquiet recently, and disasters often happen, and there are very few people on the big island of Penglai Island who go to sea, and I'm afraid that I am about to ban going to sea here, and the days are really sad......"
There are some boatmen in the food stalls drinking beer and eating barbecue, discussing the affairs of the sea.
"No way, since the last time the heavens and the earth changed, the sea has become unusual, there are always some strange creatures in the sea, and there are terrifying huge monsters that will attack the ship, and many people have died......"
"Hey, I've been begging for a living at sea all my life, and I'm so familiar with the waters around here, but all of a sudden it's changed, and I'm afraid I'm going to be sad in the future......"
Mu Li listened intently, listening carefully to what they were talking about.
As he spoke, a boatman suddenly covered his mouth and whispered:
"I heard that the ghost warship in the Eight Immortals Sea has appeared more frequently at night recently, and someone has seen it several times in the past few days......"
"Really?" The others turned pale with fright.
"It's been hundreds of years, and it's still in this sea, what the hell does it want to do? It's terrible...... "The boatmen are very taboo.
At this, the boatmen were unconsciously silent, as if they were afraid to mention it.
"Ghost warship? What is it? The students of the Shenwu Academy listened with interest.
They asked loudly, but the boatmen kept silent and waved their hands, saying that they were talking nonsense.
Mu Li walked over, showed an official card, and asked them about the ghost warship with a smile.
Their faces became respectful, and they asked Mu Li to sit down, and after a deep sigh, they began to tell him the legend about that thing.
"Legend has it that a long time ago, our Eight Immortals was an immortal island where the immortals lived, and later a war of gods and demons broke out here, and the immortals were all dead, and the demons were all destroyed......"
"After the Great War of Gods and Demons, too many gods and demons have gathered here, I don't know from which day, an ancient warship appeared in the Eight Immortals Crossing Sea, which was so dilapidated that it was not in shape, and I don't know what era it was. The ancient warship was unmanned, and it always suddenly appeared in the Eight Immortals Sea at night, it came to lure the remnants of the gods and demons, looking for their lost remnants in this sea area, and wanted to send them to Elysium. ”
"For hundreds of years, this ghost warship has been existing in the sea area of Baxiandu, it can't be seen at all during the day, and it will appear silently on the sea at night, it is terrifying and terrifying, everyone who sees it will be doomed, and it will die in a short time, and it will die extremely strangely, without a trace of signs at all, without any wounds, as if the soul has been withdrawn at once......"
Speaking of this, the boatmen all showed frightened looks, and the students of the Shenwu Academy were fascinated by what they heard.
"Go on." Mu Li said calmly.
"There used to be some ships that went out to sea at night to see that ghost warship on the sea, it was old and broken, the ship was full of skulls, and there were many ghost fires lingering, obviously on the sea, but it was completely unaffected by the wind and waves, and it always maintained the same speed, as if it were ...... It's like flying against the sea level......"
"Sometimes a fishing boat going to sea at night will suddenly collide with a ghost warship, and when someone sees a ghost warship, they will often see the corpse of a person from a fishing boat on the sea behind the warship, and the corpse will walk on the sea, unconsciously chasing the ghost warship......"
"This ghost warship is so terrifying, I don't know how many people have been lost because of seeing it for hundreds of years, and they have died like hooked souls, and their corpses have gone to the sea."
"There were fishing boats that attacked the ghost warship, but they couldn't do any damage at all, and they all died in the end."
"The official in charge of the Eight Immortals Ferry once bombarded the ghost warship with missiles, but they couldn't even make it shake it, but instead caused a plague to break out in the fleet that year, and the soldiers died."
"The ghost warship has become a taboo in the Eight Immortals, and no one dares to provoke it."
"Now, the people of Baxiandu will never go to sea at night, this is an unwritten rule, everyone does not dare to approach the sea at night, but there is nothing to do during the day."
"It's just that recently, unpredictable changes have taken place in the depths of the sea, and the ghost warship has appeared frequently, making people panic......
"Isn't the Eight Immortals Crossing holding the World Martial Arts Meeting now? There are so many martial arts masters here, I hope that their strong aura can eliminate a little bit of the ghost aura of the Eight Immortals Crossing Sea, hey......"
The boatmen poured their beers and were worried.
The heavens and the earth are changing, the sea is changing, and there is this terrible ghost warship that haunts everyone.
Not long after Mu left them to sit at the food stall, he went back.
"Is what those uncles said true? The ghost warship, the war of gods and demons, is the same as mythological stories......" The students discussed, most of them did not believe it.
"It is better to believe what you have than not to believe what you don't. During this time in the Eight Immortals, do not go near the sea at night. Mu Li said with a serious face.
The students nodded when they saw him so serious.
After sending the students back to the inn, Mu Li leaped down from the upper floor, disappearing into the night.
He turned into a phantom and ran wildly in the night, all the way to the sea.
The mysterious ghost warship, the legend of the war between gods and demons, he wants to explore it.
Mu Li's previous life, as an invincible Wuji Heavenly Venerable, crossed the existence of the immortal level, he didn't believe that the so-called ghost warship could still confuse him.
Mu Li stood on the seashore of the mouth of the gourd of the Eight Immortals.
He looked into the depths of the sea, and there was no light in the dark.
The seaside was deserted and silent.
"Woo woo woo ......"
There was a whimpering sound in the sea, and it sounded like a woman crying.
But Kili knew that it was the cry of new creatures that appeared in the sea, and he sensed their presence.
Kili walked along the coast, staring intently at the sea.
I walked for nearly an hour without finding a trace.
Suddenly, he stopped.
A cold glow appeared on the sea ahead......
A vague shadow glides lightly across the sea, silently.
Oni Ship ......
Mu Li immediately walked down to the sea, tread water, and ran quickly.
It's close, it's close......
It was an old warship, it looked tattered, the ship was empty, dead silent, but it had an eerie aura.
Mu Li felt a chill in his body, as if he had been eroded into his body by some breath.
In the dantian in his body, the Immortal Ascending Purple Qi automatically operated, instantly flowing throughout the body, bringing warmth.
Mu Li saw a figure swaying at the stern of the warship.
When he turned around, he saw some figures.
No, it's not a figure.
It was a ghost that had lost its will, a human spirit that had been extracted from life.
"Uh......h Whew......"
The unconscious ghost screamed and floated towards Kili.
"Mom, they want to eat me!"
Zhang Xiaobai's soul body appeared, huddled behind Mu Li.
"Humph!"
Mu Li's face sank, and with a wave of his hand, several golden rays of light slashed out.
The power of the state pastoral order is to kill demons and destroy evil.
The unconscious ghosts were annihilated in the golden light.
"Buzz ......"
The hull of the ghost warship shuddered suddenly, and its form dissipated with a thud.
After a long time, there was no more strange aura on the sea, and it became calm.
He stood for a long time with his eyes flashing, and finally turned back to the shore.
