The day after the fleet successfully entered the windless zone, Gu Xuan found a big problem that shocked him so much that it was difficult to even maintain the calm on the surface, so much so that everyone else thought that he had some strange problems, that is, in this entire sea area, not only was there no wind, but there was not the slightest trace of etheric energy!

After Gu Xuan's self-experimentation and exploration these days, he already knew one thing, that is, his body could absorb and transform the ether energy of various attributes at will, so the situation here could never be because there was a different ether energy that he could not feel and absorb.

The same thing is not an isolated case, because there is another place where the same thing happens in the Canghai Realm, that is, the Western Continent where the human race has multiplied for generations, in the Western Continent, not only does there not exist any ether energy, but even Gu Xuan, after Adam's various descriptions, can conclude that his hometown still completely rejects the appearance of ether energy, so no one can use the ether energy originally stored in himself there.

So what about here, and what's going on here?

Could it be that there are also rules that are forbidden here?

Will there be any connection between here and the Western Continent?

He was even wondering if the rules of the Western Continent really existed to protect the human race, or was it just wishful thinking on the part of later generations, or was it just a special forbidden land that happened to be settled by the ancestors of the human race?

Gu Xuan couldn't think of a reasonable answer to all the questions behind this for the time being, but he always felt that this must be a big secret related to the safety of the entire Canghai Realm, but he didn't have enough strength to explore it at the moment.

And he also found that the fish that survive in the windless zone are also very strange, their appearance is very weird, ugly, even disgusting, and ordinary sea fish are two completely different creatures, because I don't know whether these strange fish are harmful, so the whole fleet is to eat the stored fresh fish caught in advance, and for a period of time afterward, they are all eating the previously marinated dried meat, dried fish, etc., and have never caught food here.

Not only that, but there are many strange places here, such as here, the compass that was originally used to guide the way on the sea has completely failed, and even the stars hanging in the night sky are upside down, and they cannot be used to guide the way, as if this is a cursed place.

But fortunately, this is a windless zone, so the ship only needs to move forward normally, as long as the direction does not change, it will not get lost, and then the road is calm, and the fleet finally successfully passed the windless zone that kills people invisibly after two weeks.

After this, the mood of the entire fleet was noticeably higher, not only because the sailors' work was much easier, but also because they could feel the familiar sea breeze blowing on their faces, and most importantly, because they were not far from their final destination, the Eastern Continent.

---------

As we all know, in the distant eastern continent, since ancient times, there have been two main races, the earth race and the spirit race.

Compared with the Western Continent, where large-scale infighting often breaks out and wars between each other, the Eastern Continent is obviously much more chaotic.

Because after a period of time, under the impetus behind the scenes of the Illuminati, it is caused by luck, in short, the human race will always usher in a period of great unification, and then there will be hundreds of years or even thousands of years of peace, so that the people can multiply, but the Eastern Continent is different, not to mention that the earth race and the spirit race are not enemies with each other, and there are also wars between them over the years.

No wonder Lao Huo once said that it was a very lucky thing for him to be able to settle down in the Western Continent, have a restaurant, and enjoy a peaceful life, because compared to the Eastern Continent, the Western Continent is completely a paradise.

In the Eastern Continent, the people of the Earth are divided into different tribes, among which there are three tribes that are the most powerful and influential, namely the Blackstone tribe, which likes to smelt weapons the most and remains neutral for the time being, and the extremely warlike, endless giant hammer and lava two tribes.

The Spirit Race people, like humans, have established many huge empires in the south of the Eastern Continent, the most powerful of which are the three empires of Wind Whisper, Star Chasing and Dark Moon, and the luxury of each imperial capital is by no means inferior to that of the human race, and even surpasses it in many aspects.

In addition to these big forces with a long heritage and strong combat power, there are also hundreds of small and medium-sized tribes and countries that are trying to survive in the cracks, and the whole scene looks a hundred times more chaotic than the Western Continent.

And Adam came from a medium-sized tribe that has risen rapidly over the years, and its sphere of influence has expanded to be very close to these large tribes, and the reason why their tribe can rise rapidly is precisely because they have taken the initiative to carry out long-term business and trade exchanges and cooperation with the human race, or with several major families in the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce.

It is precisely for this reason that the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce attaches great importance to this friendship, of course, this is only a friendship in money, and businessmen will not be moved because of this kind of thing.

Because the two continents between the east and the west are too far away, it is very inconvenient to come and go, and there has been no communication for thousands of years, although there is no grudge, but at least there is no incense love, so no matter how strong the fight between the earth clan and the spirit clan is, but for the human race from the other side of the distant star sea, it is also more wary and rejection than curiosity and favor, not to mention that the most profitable thing for the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce is the slave trade.

But this situation can be changed, as long as there is a force that sincerely accepts them in the future, even if it is just an insignificant small tribe, but take this opportunity, the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce will be able to expand its trade in the Eastern Continent, have more markets, and make more money.

Because at that time, they will not be outsiders, but can be handed over to their "own people", which is just like if a country wants to intervene in another country, it must start by supporting a group of new forces from within it, rather than positive coercion and inducement, which will only be counterproductive.

It is precisely because of this reason that Adam was captured by the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce with great strength in the Western Continent, but the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce did not think that the current person who launched a coup d'état and replaced the old chief in one fell swoop, that is, Adam's own uncle would be the most suitable collaborator in the future, on the contrary, Adam, who has half of the human blood, is the best choice in the eyes of the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce.

After all, the icing on the cake is better than sending charcoal in the snow, isn't it?

It's a pity that although Adam is a mixed-race, he can see the situation more clearly, and knows better what the people of the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce are planning, in his opinion, if these mercenary foreign businessmen are allowed to invade the Eastern Continent smoothly, then the Eastern Continent will fall sooner or later, and he is absolutely unwilling to let the interests of the people of the Earth Clan be damaged because of this.

After that, in order to consume his stamina, the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce deliberately threw him in the dirty and messy bilge, fortunately he met Gu Xuan, otherwise Adam would have suffered this way, of course, he would never feel good now.

------------

Seeing that it is not far from the final destination of the Eastern Continent.

Jiang Dashao, who was born in the Jiang family, one of the founding four families of the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce, and was also the true owner of this fleet, was sitting in a large room that belonged to him and enjoying his lunch.

The interior of the room is decorated with extreme luxury, whether it is the carpet of the spirit clan specialties on the floor, or the heads of various exotic beasts hanging on the walls, including the Danqing Mobao, all of which are made by famous artists, which are all things that ordinary people can hardly reach.

After all, no matter how big a ship is, it can't fit all the things needed for the whole voyage, and fresh water and food have to be replenished along the way, so the closer they get to the destination, the more they are actually exhausted.

But here, on the round table in front of Jiang Dashao, from the eight cold dishes in the outermost part to a big dish in the center, not to mention on the sea, even on land, ordinary big families may have to barely eat such a meal at the end of the year.

Of course, for him, this is just a drop in the bucket.

He chewed the rice in his mouth slowly, this is their Jiang family's family motto, everything else has to be done in a hurry, because if one step is slow, one step is slow, but when eating, you must chew and swallow slowly, and you can't swallow dates.

This is also the rule of many large households, eating too fast, is always not beautiful.

After gently putting down the priceless natural jade chopsticks in his hand, he turned the table, and then unhurriedly scooped the fresh white fish soup that the chef had carefully boiled for him, and asked unhurriedly, "How is it, Brother Adam, how are you thinking about it?"

"I'm very sincere, you should know that in addition to our Jiang family, other families also have their own forces secretly cultivating in the Eastern Continent. Jiang Dashao scooped up a mouthful of fragrant and lubricated soup with the same jade spoon, and swallowed it, his eyes were completely on the bowl in front of him, but he still kept saying, " With all due respect, I really don't understand what your persistence is, in the future, a bridge of communication between the two continents will inevitably be established, this is the trend of the times, cooperation is mutually beneficial, this is also for the good of both of us, besides, there will always be someone who agrees to the conditions of our Qiankun Chamber of Commerce, right, I admit that Brother Adam you are a noble person, but can you guarantee that everyone else is the same as you?"

After drinking two sips of soup, he stood up, and personally scooped a bowl of soup with another translucent jade bowl, and then put it in front of Adam with a tablecloth, although his tone was very enthusiastic, he greeted with a very indifferent expression: "The soup that has just been boiled, I know that Brother Adam has suffered these days, and a lot of supplements can be added to it, and after staying up all night, the essence is in the soup, and the cook is also brought by me from the house, the craftsmanship is good, you can taste it." ”
