Chapter 14: Believing
Li Heng gloated as he looked at the two increasingly fierce demonic beasts, and laughed in his heart.
Soon after, the Abyss Python, which had successfully advanced to the rank of seventh-order demonic beast, and the Blazing Tiger King became the dragon's mount.
The days passed like this, the stronger Li Heng's cultivation became, and although Long Er had incomparably powerful power, he was as simple and lively as ever.
As for the two poor monsters, they are used as mounts by the dragon during the day, cruising around the island, and if they encounter any fierce beasts that do not open their eyes, they can take advantage of this to vent the anguish in their hearts.
At night, they are cultivating lifelessly.
It's just because Li Heng once said to them: One day, if you can form a demon pill, and then break the demon pill, you can become a ** class.
Feathering**, this is the thing that every monster desires the most in his heart.
Six months later!
The light of the smoky crescent moon poured everywhere, and it was late at night, and the island gradually became quiet.
The little girl played around all day and went to bed early.
Li Heng was suspended above the waterfall, the pores of his whole body exploded, hundreds of thousands of zhang in the air, twelve pillars of light composed of pure moonlight power were quietly projected on him, connected with the main meridians, and then there was the sea of meridians refining.
And so on and so forth.
And at the moment.
In the westernmost part of the island, a huge sailing ship appeared like a ghost in the distant sea, and the direction of travel was impressively on the island, and it was so fast that it could dock in half an hour at most.
On the deck, there was a young man who was as tall as a javelin, and behind him, stood several old men with vicissitudes of expression, but still in good spirits.
"Your Highness, the night wind is strong at night, would you better go back to the cabin to rest?" an old man lowered his head and said in a respectful tone.
The young man was handsome, his expression was as resolute as iron, and there was a gloomy taste on his face that did not match his age.
Stroking the wrench on the thumb of his right hand, the young man frowned slightly, stared at the island in the distance and laughed softly: "People who have lost their country, how can they be so exquisite. β
Several old men looked gloomy.
"Your Highness, don't be so pessimistic, now that the Purple Smoke God Island is in front of you, as long as Your Highness can obtain the treasure left by the ancestor, the restoration of the country is just around the corner. The old man who had spoken earlier continued.
"Ancestor's stuff?" the boy smiled sarcastically, turning and walking towards the cabin, "The gods are too ethereal, and I don't have too much hope. β
The sun was puffed up high, and the old people who were already the ten rank cultivators in the world looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
The East China Sea is vast, and there are many islands on the sea, and there are countless of them.
On the sea, there are at least dozens of kingdoms, usually with dozens of islands connected together as their respective territories.
The group of people on the ship are the people of the Witch Submarine Country.
The area of Wuqian Country is not small, with hundreds of islands in size, distributed in hundreds of thousands of hectares of sea, and the population has reached as many as one million, ranking one of the seven countries in the East China Sea.
A few months ago, Zhao Ke, the Heavenly Eunuch of the Wuqian Kingdom, suddenly staged a coup d'Γ©tat, and with the backing of more than 100 ten-rank martial cultivators and a cultivator who had reached the Jindan stage, he killed the current king and more than a dozen princes, and finally only let Li Tong, the youngest prince, escape.
Zhao Ke didn't know that the princes he killed were a bunch of waste, and as early as two years ago, the king intended to pass the throne to the youngest prince.
"Hey, after this great change, I hope our Highness can withstand the wind and waves, and don't be depressed, the fate of the Wuqian Kingdom can only be changed by His Highness. β
"You underestimate His Highness, he is resolute in his mind, far from being comparable to us, the Wuqian Kingdom has suffered such a great change, the emperor and many princes have died, have you ever seen His Highness leave a tear?"
In the space where a few people were talking, the degree of the sailboat had slowed down, and the appearance of the island had been clearly seen by everyone.
The experienced boatman was already preparing to moor.
Li Tong, the prince of the dead country, walked out of the cabin at some point.
"Your Highness, the Purple Smoke God Island is about to arrive, this isolated island has been uninhabited for a long time, I am afraid that the island is full of fierce beasts, and please keep a distance of about three feet between Your Highness and the old minister, and the old minister can protect His Highness. β
Li Tong nodded indifferently, waved his hand and said, "This king believes in you. β
The huge sailboat slowly stopped, the ship was brightly lit, and a group of samurai in armor stepped down from the ship with sharp blades in hand.
They spread around with great skill, vigilantly watching the gray islands for the beasts to attack.
Li Tong stepped off the sailboat under the protection of a group of ten-rank cultivators.
Now......
Li Heng opened his eyes suddenly, the colorful light on his whole body was restrained, his sharp eyes looked towards the west like a knife, and he said to himself: "Huh, someone can actually find here?"
The stars are dotted, and the moon shines as cool as ever on the island.
The island, which is usually quiet on weekdays, is destined to be lively tonight.
Li Heng hung in mid-air, his mind was spinning rapidly, thinking about how to deal with this group of strangers who came suddenly, it stands to reason that this island should be very safe, otherwise his father would not have chosen this place to live in the first place.
"Maybe it's the lost explorers, and I'll take a sneak look, and if they leave early tomorrow morning, then I don't have to show up, lest there be unnecessary conflict. β
Li Heng got up from the air, stretched his waist, and flew towards the west with his whole body fluttering.
On the west side of the island, Li Tong's group of people looked at a group of fierce beasts dozens of feet away in front of them as if they were facing a great enemy.
They had just set foot on this land, and before they could take a moment's breath, the group of battle-hardened warriors all pulled out their long knives and surrounded Li Tong like an iron bucket.
In the jungle in the middle of the night, dozens of pairs of cold and bright eyes suddenly appeared.
Compared to humans, these are dozens of pairs of fierce beast eyes.
"No, we made a mistake in choosing to anchor here, and it seems that we have entered the territory of this group of beasts," one of the old men exclaimed in a low voice.
Li Tong was protected impermeable, and his indifferent eyes stared at the dozens of tall black tigers that were gradually approaching, and there was no fear in his expression.
"Huang Wei, how long will it take for you to deal with these beasts?" Li Tong asked indifferently to an old man in blue.
Although the old man was a ten-rank martial cultivator, he was still extremely respectful in the face of this fallen prince, "If I wait to make a move, it will take a stick of incense." β
"It's so long, aren't you a ten-rank martial cultivator? You can move mountains and reclaim the sea with a single hand, and a few beasts also need a stick of incense?" Li Tong frowned slightly.
The old man named Huang Wei smiled bitterly: "Your Highness doesn't know, these beasts are really very powerful, and it can be seen from the fierce flames emitted from them that at least they are all first-order magical beasts, all of them are fierce beasts that survive in the cruel law of the jungle, and our warriors face such fierce beasts one-on-one, but I am afraid that the hope of winning is very slim." β
Li Tong's empty and indifferent expression gradually improved, and he smiled strangely: "Then this island should be full of dangers, and there are such fierce beasts everywhere?"
Huang Wei was stunned for a moment, not understanding what his master meant by this, but he still replied respectfully: "Your Highness, rest assured, as long as our group of old bones are still alive, Your Highness will not be in the slightest danger." β
Li Tong smiled softly, and he could vaguely see a trace of disdain and excitement in his demeanor.
"Huang Wei, this king is a little tired, you go and deal with this group of brutes. β
"The old minister took the order. β
His body moved slightly, and in an instant, he moved out a few feet horizontally, and waved his hand to the group of warriors and said, "Stand back, these fierce beasts are extremely powerful, you don't need to do anything." β
"Hey, something is wrong, this old man seems to have some ability, those little guys are probably not opponents, Xiao Hei is cultivating, I'm afraid he won't have time to take care of his children." β
Li Heng hid on the branch of a big tree early, and when he saw the ghostly light work of the old man, he secretly screamed in his heart.
"Who the hell are they? They all seem to be well-trained, and they are many times more powerful than the Qianniuwei in Liangzhou City, and they don't seem to be ordinary adventurers. β
When Li Heng was thinking, the situation on the ground had become extremely bad.
Huang Wei stomped his feet violently, his true qi poured into his whole body, and in the face of such a group of fierce black tigers, even if he was a tenth-rank martial artist, he still didn't dare to take it lightly.
