Chapter 543: Donghai City
Due to the suddenness of the incident, even the Fire Venerable could not have imagined what had happened.
Therefore, even if the Flame Venerable made a quick move, he could only send a very small wisp of divine soul power towards the other end of the Young Master Token.
This wisp of divine soul power will not last too long, so the time given to Cao Chuan and Su Sanyuan will not be very long.
Under the speculation of the Flame Venerable, Cao Chuan and Su Sanyuan may only have half a month to let them find the mastermind behind the control of the demons and puppets to go to various dimensional spaces to make trouble.
But just a little induction, you can know that the person who found Cao Chuan through the young master token, and still had room to mock Cao Chuan, was in a place extremely far away from the two of them, and more importantly, relying only on this wisp of divine soul power, the two could not determine the exact location of the other party, even if they could arrive in a short time, they could only honestly explore the truth according to various clues.
It is precisely because they understand that these difficulties exist objectively, so Cao Chuan and Su Sanyuan plan to act separately.
Cao Chuan took Yu Qinglan, Wen Jinghao and Chu Ningxiang and the three daughters directly to the location of the Flame Venerable's wisp of divine soul power, while Su Sanyuan went back to the Tianyuan Dynasty first to bring in the rescue troops, and then joined Cao Chuan as quickly as possible.
At that time, the two can be combined inside and outside, even if they are really run away, there are rescuers brought by Su Sanyuan who can chase and intercept each other on the periphery and completely catch them.
In this way, the two of them immediately began to act separately.
Due to the fact that the power of the Flame Venerable's divine soul was already very weak, and the location currently displayed was thousands of miles away from the East Narrow Grottoes, Cao Chuan and his party couldn't care so much, so they immediately rushed to the nearest town to the East Narrow Grottoes as fast as possible, and then used the spirit stone to rent a flying spirit boat to rush to the destination.
The speed at which the Flying Spirit Boat is flying depends on the number of Spirit Stones.
And Cao Chuan lacks everything, that is, there is no shortage of spirit stones.
Therefore, Cao Chuan forgot to smash the best spirit stones in the flying spirit boat as if he didn't need money, which made the speed of the flying spirit boat extremely fast, and he actually took the group to the destination faster than the limit.
This time.
The targets of Cao Chuan and Su Sanyuan were all a sea city located in the east of the Upper Yuan Realm.
The name of this sea city is "East Sea City", which is a large town within the boundary of the Four Seas of the Upper Metaverse, and can be said to be one of the most prosperous and lively towns in the Four Seas Realm.
However, the most famous thing about Tokai Castle is undoubtedly an ancient legend that has been circulating around Tokai Castle for a long, long time.
It is said that there was a girl in Tokai Castle at that time who was so beautiful that she was favored by the son of the dragon king in the sea outside Tokai Castle.
So the son of the dragon king turned into a man and wanted to forcibly take the girl away as his daughter-in-law.
However, the girl didn't like the son of the dragon king at all, so she angered the son of the dragon king, and appeared on the spot in its original form, ready to drown the entire East China Sea City in the waves.
Then.
At that time, the sect master of the Four Seas Realm Sect passed by here, and after hearing about this incident, he first went to the Dragon King of the Sea to intercede, hoping that the Dragon King could spare the residents of Donghai City, but was unexpectedly rejected by the Dragon King, who was very spoiled by his children.
In this way, on the contrary, it was the Dragon King and his son who angered the sect master of the Four Seas Realm, who was famous in the entire Upper Metaverse at that time, and made a big fuss in front of the Dragon King on the spot, and even grabbed his son directly, and beat him vigorously in front of everyone, until the son of the Dragon King who showed his original form was beaten half to death.
When had the dragon king of the sea ever seen such a Terran monk who could fight, but he couldn't watch his son being beaten, so he roared and wanted to avenge his son.
Unexpectedly, even if it was the Dragon King in the sea, the sect master of the Four Seas Realm Sect at that time was also able to fight correctly, and even the attack was more rapid and violent than before, so that the Dragon King in the Sea father and son together were not enough for him to fight alone.
After such a big fight.
The dragon king and his son never appeared again, and the girl who had been harassed was able to stay at home in peace without fear of retaliation from the dragon king or his son.
Even since that day, those who go out to do business or fish in the East China Sea City have never encountered any violent storms, and every trip is smooth, peaceful and quiet.
Because of the legend in the past, some people later attributed this credit to the original sect master of the Four Seas Realm, until now there is a huge statue in the city of Donghai City that can no longer be seen clearly, and is called the sect master of the Four Seas Realm.
It is said that the dragon king of the sea, who wants to get angry, will retract his skills out of fear when he sees this statue.
It's just that these are just legends, and there is no actual evidence to prove them.
After all, no one saw that there was really a sect master of the Four Seas Realm going down to the sea to fight with the dragon king and the dragon king's son in the sea.
It's just that those people who rely on the sea for their livelihood docked at the dock of Donghai City have always said that as long as the ships go out of the dock of Donghai City, they have never encountered a violent storm, or even a bump at all.
Compared to other places, Tokai City's fleet can be said to be the happiest, and there is never a need to worry about being shipwrecked at sea.
These rumors were heard by passers-by as soon as Cao Chuan and his party arrived at Donghai City.
But Cao Chuan and his entourage did not take this rumor to heart.
After all, rumors are just rumors, not to mention a rumor that even the residents of Tokai City only regard as a story.
In this way, Cao Chuan, Yu Qinglan, Wen Jinghao and Chu Ningxiang, who left this rumor and story behind, officially entered Donghai City.
Suddenly.
The Flame Venerable's voice sounded in Cao Chuan's sea of knowledge, and he said, "Although the divine soul power I transmitted before is very weak and may dissipate at any time, I can't feel wrong, old man, the last place where my divine soul power stays is near this Donghai City, and the approximate location is to the east of Donghai City!" ”
The east side of Tokai Castle.
Including Tokai Castle.
In this way, the Flame Venerable helped Cao Chuan and his party narrow the scope again.
Next, as long as they don't expose their whereabouts and purpose, they will definitely be able to find the mastermind behind the puppets and demons behind the scenes.
After listening to what the Flame Venerable said, Cao Chuan and his party were naturally very happy, but they also quickly calmed down, and immediately began to look for a suitable place to live in the East China Sea City.
Since they are looking for someone, they must need to stay here for a while.
At this time, it is natural to find a place to live comfortably.
At the same time, it is also to better hide their whereabouts, and it is also beneficial for them to investigate in secret.
Soon, the four of them found a house for sale in Donghai City, which was still very large, and it was said that a local rich man had to put it up for sale after he went bankrupt.
It is precisely because of this that the asking price is somewhat high.
It's just that this house is located in the center of Donghai City, and it can be said that you can go to the most lively places in Donghai City anytime and anywhere as soon as you go out, so even if the price is a little more expensive, it is worth the money.
Not to mention that Cao Chuan himself was not bad for that little spirit stone, so he bought the whole house and the small house with two sides of the wall at a fixed price.
That's it.
Cao Chuan and his entourage had a foothold in Donghai City.
Now that you have a place to rest, the next thing to do is to investigate.
It's just that since the wisp of divine soul power of the Flame Venerable has completely dissipated, whether or not they can find the mastermind behind the scenes will depend on the ability of Cao Chuan and his party.
However, Donghai City is one of the largest towns in the Four Seas Realm, and the population living here is tens of millions, let alone 10 million, so it is indeed very difficult to find one person among so many people.
However, Cao Chuan was not in a hurry, since it was already certain that the person was near Donghai City, it was only a matter of time before he could find the person.
As long as it is a problem that can be solved by relying on time, it is not a big problem, at least not a big problem for Cao Chuan.
So taking advantage of the cool weather in the afternoon, the air still exuded a faint salty smell of the sea breeze, and Cao Chuan and his party prepared to take a look everywhere in the city of Donghai City.
But if you want to find out the news in such a large town, apart from the common taverns and inns, only places like the auction house are the most informed.
So after thinking about it for a while, Cao Chuan took Yu Qinglan, Wen Jinghao and Chu Ningxiang to find the largest and only auction house in Donghai City.
The name is "Four Seas Auction House"
After a little inquiry, you can know that this Four Seas Auction House is actually an auction house personally opened by the Four Seas Realm Sect in the Upper Metaverse, and it often auctions some treasures that are rarely seen on the market, occasionally some treasures found in secret realms, and more treasures brought back from overseas.
It's a bit exotic.
After all, even most people living in Tokai Castle have never seen overseas scenery, so it is natural that they will have a strong interest in overseas treasures.
Cao Chuan and his party were no exception, and they had never seen treasures obtained from overseas.
But the group did not use a lot of spirit stones to buy a VIP status as much as before, but spent some spirit stones for the auction house to arrange themselves in the private room on the second floor.
It doesn't make a splash, and you don't need to be crammed into one place with so many people.
And it didn't take long.
An auction at the auction house has officially begun, and at the beginning, the first auction items that are brought up are exotic treasures from overseas.
