Chapter 29: A Journey to the Sea
Considering that he wanted to preserve Jiao Wenyan's corpse, Lan Qian first chose to cultivate the ice element, and then froze Jiao Wenyan and threw it into the previous Jiao Wenyan's spatial ring.
In the Five Elements and Five Elephants, the ice is frozen, frozen for thousands of miles, and the suppression of vitality is a kind of martial art opposed to fire, which has the effect of suppression; At the same time, Lan Qian still cultivated an ice-attribute spirit-level martial art, the Cold Realm. When the cold realm is unleashed, the temperature in the field drops sharply, which can frostbite and weaken the enemy's ability to move, and when cultivated to the extreme, it can even directly freeze the enemy and deprive all vitality.
The days at sea were boring, but Lan Qian lived a very fulfilling life, dredging the meridians and cultivating martial arts. On the 10th day of going to sea, Lan Qian encountered a sea monster - a six-clawed dragon fish, and when it was confirmed that the sea monster was only a fourth-level demon beast, Lan Qian started a big battle with it. Although the strength is comparable, but the six-clawed dragon fish is fighting at home, taking advantage of it, Lan Qian tried his best to defeat the six-clawed dragon fish with all his powerful martial arts, but he was escaped by it.
On the 17th day of going to sea, Lan Qian encountered a group of third-level sea monsters, the Purple Gold Thunder Eel. The Purple Gold Thunder Eel specializes in the power of lightning and is able to release lightning from its tail to stun enemies. A purple gold thunder eel is not terrible, what is terrible is that a group of purple gold thunder eels fight together, and the power of that thunder and lightning is very amazing. In this battle, Lan Qian was electrocuted very badly, but fortunately, the purple gold thunder eel had a fatal weakness, that is, it was particularly afraid of fire, so Lan Qian was able to rely on the fire of the five elements and five elephants to withstand their attacks wave after wave. In the end of the battle, the Purple Gold Thunder Eel not only did not get any benefits from Lan Qian, but instead buried many companions in Lan Qian's hands, and finally had to give up Lan Qian's difficult bone to find other prey. Afterwards, looking at the corpses of the purple gold thunder eels on the boat, Lan Qian felt that it was a pity to lose them, so he tried to refine them with the fire of the five elements and five elephants. Sure enough, as Lan Qian had guessed before, the Fire of the Five Elements and Five Elephants could refine the spiritual power from the corpse and return to the atmosphere. Lan Qian had just experienced a protracted battle, and the consumption of spiritual power was very huge, so of course Lan Qian would not let go of this unexpected spiritual power gain. Lan Qian sat cross-legged, absorbing all the refined spiritual power into his body, turning it into his own use, and incorporating it into the sea of qi, Lan Qian found that this refined spiritual power was very pure, and it could be absorbed and turned into his own use without much need for refining, which was really good. Moreover, Lan Qian also found that the spiritual power of the purple gold thunder eel contained pure thunder and lightning attributes, which could be absorbed by Lan Qian's body, but I don't know if it has an enhanced effect on the use of thunder and lightning attribute martial arts. There were a lot of purple gold thunder eels, until the sea of qi was filled, and Lan Qian still had a small half of the purple gold thunder eel corpse in his hand, which made Lan Qian exclaim with refreshment. The rest could not be wasted, and Lan Qian carefully sealed the remaining purple gold thunder eel in case of emergency.
On the 30th day of going to sea, Lan Qian cultivated the martial arts related to the ice element, and then began to cultivate the last element, the water element. In the Five Elements and Five Elephants, the water master is soft, deriving the domain, weakening the enemy's momentum, and can cooperate with the gravity field to weaken the enemy's actions and offensive to the greatest extent, so that the enemy is "unaccustomed to water and soil"; Similarly, Lan Qian also cultivated a water-attribute spirit-level martial art, Covering the Sea Seal. As the ancestor of the Lan family, how high his vision is, the martial arts that match the ten elements are very extraordinary. Lan Qian carefully studied the Covered Sea Seal and found that this was a powerful martial art comparable to the Nine Heavens of Phoenix Wings, and with it, Lan Qian would have two powerful long-range attack martial arts in the future. On the sea, due to the abundance of water vapor, the spiritual power in the atmosphere has a slight water attribute, and cultivating water attribute martial arts in this environment not only has a faster cultivation speed, but even the power of the martial arts displayed will be stronger than usual, so Lan Qian feels particularly handy when he cultivates.
On the 42nd day of going to sea, Lan Qian encountered the Kraken Beast again, this time it was a wolf whale, a fifth-level demon beast! The body length was nearly 10 meters, and a mouthful of wolf teeth was even more terrifying, Lan Qian was like a little doll in front of it. Lan Qian tried to fight it, but he was quickly defeated, it was too strong, the wolf whale was not only fast, but also its mouth and tail could be used to attack, and the battlefield was in the sea again, Lan Qian was not an opponent at all, and he was beaten so badly. Later, Lan Qian felt that he couldn't beat it, so he had to put the boat (less than 10 meters in length) into the space ring, and directly tread the waves, running all the way. Fortunately, Lan Qian's speed was not bad, and after being chased and killed for 3 days and 3 nights, Lan Qian still threw the wolf whale away.
On the 50th day of going to sea, Lan Qian encountered a large whirlpool with a radius of 1 li (radius of 1 li), the whirlpool was like a funnel, spinning rapidly, and the center of the whirlpool was bottomless, like the mouth of a demon, threatening to devour all things. Fortunately, Lan Qian had the eye of heaven and discovered the maelstrom very early, and avoided it far away before he went in, and successfully escaped the catastrophe. However, Lan Qian didn't rejoice for long, and after avoiding the maelstrom, he accidentally entered an undercurrent chaotic sea. After entering the chaotic sea, not only did the sea water become pitch black, but even the sky was a little overcast, which looked a little scary. Moreover, what made Lan Qian most sad was that in the chaotic sea, the boat couldn't walk in a straight line in one direction at all, and was always carried around by the undercurrent. Therefore, later Lan Qian simply put away the boat and walked on foot on the sea, although the speed was a little slower, but he could finally walk in a straight line.
However, what Lan Qian didn't expect was that this chaotic sea area was so big, and he walked all the way for 7 days, but he still didn't get out of the chaotic sea area, but found a small island in the chaotic sea area, a very small island. There was nothing on the island, only some stones and trees, but the spiritual power on the island was more abundant than on the sea, so after exploring that there was no danger, Lan Qian decided to stay on the island for the time being to cultivate, and make every effort to open up the eight veins of the ninth Qi Sutra.
Due to the existence of trees on the island, which could help Lan Qian quickly recover his spiritual power, with Lan Qian's unremitting efforts, he finally opened up the ninth Eight Veins of the Strange Meridian leading to the left eye three days later, and took a big step forward in the rank of a fifth-order martial general. Next, Lan Qian was going to start to open up the tenth Qi Jing and eight veins, and move towards Wuhou. This time, Lan Qian decided to open up the Eight Veins of the Strange Meridian leading to his back to prepare for the Wind Wings afterward.
While cultivating on the island, Lan Qian unexpectedly found that the stones on the island were particularly hard. Lan Qian tried to bombard the stone with the spiral pill, but only left a small dent in the stone. And not only the stones, the texture of the trees on the island is also very hard, dark as iron, it looks extraordinary, Lan Qian named it the Iron Wood Tree. There are round fruits growing on the ironwood tree, one by one like a lead ball, black and heavy, Lan Qian named this fruit ironwood. Feeling the extraordinaryness of the stones and trees on the island, Lan Qian deliberately took away five big stones and five ironwood trees when he left.
Five days later, Lan Qian finally walked out of the chaotic sea and sat in a small boat again, sailing on the calm sea. In the blink of an eye, it had been more than two months since Lan Qian left the island, and it was already the beginning of March, and Lan Qian had already mastered the martial arts related to the water element. At this point, after a year, Lan Qian finally completed the cultivation of the Ten Tricks Sutra and the Five Elements and Five Elephant Techniques, and also mastered the ten spirit-level high-grade martial arts, and the rest was to wait for the actual combat training.
After cultivating so many martial arts, all-encompassing, and each of them has good powers, it stands to reason that Lan Qian should be very satisfied, but in fact, Lan Qian is still not satisfied, he found a special martial art suitable for himself in the arsenal of the ancestor of the Lan family-Xiao Qian Sword Technique. Xiao Qian's sword technique is also a spirit-level high-grade martial art, and it takes hundreds of swords to exert its strongest power. For Lan Qian, who had the Qi Condensation Technique, these swords were not a problem at all, so Lan Qian felt that this martial art was particularly suitable for him. Xiaoqian swordsmanship is based on 7, 7 swords form 1 small sword formation, 7 small sword formations form 1 middle sword formation, and finally 7 middle sword formations form the final small thousand sword formation. In the final Little Thousand Sword Array, a total of 343 swords need to be used, which is extremely large, with Lan Qian's current ability, there is no way to condense so many swords at the same time, but there is no way now, it does not mean that there will be no way in the future. A few years later, when Lan Qian unleashed several small thousand sword formations on the battlefield with a snap of his fingers, everyone was stunned. For the power of the Xiao Qian Sword Array, only six words were used in the martial arts to describe it, that is, it was comparable to a king-level martial art, simple and domineering, which was also one of the reasons why Lan Qian wanted to cultivate this martial art.
After 10 days, the time had come to mid-March, and during this time, Lan Qian had condensed with water, and he could already cast a middle sword formation, and began to work towards two middle sword formations.
More than two months have passed since he went to sea, and according to Lan Qian's previous speculation, his position should be very close to the Ink Domain at this time. This proved to be the case, because when Lan Qian used his Heavenly Eye to probe the surrounding situation, he found that there were two ships 40 miles northwest of him, seemingly in a state of confrontation.
"It's been more than two months, and I've finally met someone again", Lan Qian sighed, "Go and see!" Lan Qian made a decision.
Half an hour later, about 10 miles away from the two ships, Lan Qian once again used the Eye of Heaven to probe the identities of the two ships. This investigation made Lan Qian smile bitterly, "It's actually a member of the Jiao family again, is it that I am so destined for you", Lan Qian was speechless, but since he saw it, let's take a look.
Lan Qian was less interested in the Jiao family, and he was more interested in the side that confronted the Jiao family. The Jiao family's battle ship is very grand and luxurious, and Lan Qian has seen it before. However, like the Jiao family's warship, the other warship is also very luxurious and high-grade, and it is obvious that the people on board are also members of a big family.
