Chapter Seventy-One: Exploring the Sacred Island (Part II)

Night. The East China Sea is quiet, and occasionally a few seagulls drifting north fly over the sea, leaving a few sad shallow chirps. A full moon hangs obliquely in the sky, and the bright moonlight shadows the sea, looking past from the dragon boat, it just gives people the illusion that there are two full moons in front of them.

At midnight, there were many merit-based students sitting on the huge deck, a bonfire was burning in the center of the deck, and many men and women were roasting things on both sides, talking and laughing and getting acquainted with each other.

At this time, the old captain Malu appeared in front of everyone's eyes with a bony body, and coughed a few times, as if a gust of wind could blow him into the sea.

"Ladies and gentlemen, ahem, by now, we are now three hundred nautical miles away from the Syphon Continent. Ma Lu spoke without the slightest emotion, as if he was reading a document, "The next thing I want to say is that everyone should be vigilant as much as possible at night, and don't go out and walk around if there is nothing to do, everyone knows that our ship is large, and the range of soldiers patrolling is limited, and we can't save it in the event of an accident." Ahem, and no matter what your reason or motive, remember that you can't go into the water!"

"For what, old captain!" someone asked, wouldn't it be a pity not to cool off when sailing?

Ma Lu's wrinkled face instantly turned cold, and his serious tone made it impossible to refute: "Because, I don't want to take your corpses back to the Dragon God Empire!"

"Hiss"

Everyone took a deep breath of cold air and was frightened by Malu's words. Is there something in the water?

Ma Lu exhaled, after all, they are all children, so he patiently explained: "Donghai." It is close to all parts of the Psiphon continent. Just as you know. Our human world, the corpse world and the underworld are all surrounded by endless seas, because the East China Sea is wide and there are countless unknown creatures in the sea, so for thousands of years, human beings have only touched a trace of the image, according to historical records, within three hundred nautical miles from the Saifeng continent, it is a safe area for ordinary people to go to sea, and ordinary ships will never dare to go beyond this range. Because once it is beyond that. In the second stage, which is divided by humans into 300 nautical miles to 10,000 nautical miles, this sea area hides countless sea beasts, which feed on meat and are bloodthirsty. ”

Speaking of which, Malu had already seen the fear in the students' eyes.

"And where we are now, it is the second realm that belongs to the East China Sea, and soon, all kinds of ferocious sea beasts will appear! Don't think about how to have fun and barbecue at night, but think about how to deal with the sea beasts that come to attack on their own initiative. And we're going to the island of the gods to explore. It's an adventure, it's an experience! It's not to have fun, it's not to barbecue and laugh around the campfire! You are the leaders of the empire, and you shoulder the responsibility of exploration, don't think that you can be arrogant if you are meritocracy, on the mainland, in the East China Sea, you are much stronger than you!"

The words made everyone's faces red and full of guilt.

On the deck, Zhang Yu took Shixiao's hand and quietly lay on the railing to watch the night, disapproving the words of the old captain Ma Lu.

Obviously, Ma Lu's reason for doing this is to urge the students to cultivate, and the starting point is good, but sometimes the gains outweigh the losses if they grasp too tightly. These merit-based students are all leaving the land for the first time in their lives to go to sea, and it is normal to be excited, besides, they are all from different academies, it is reasonable to spend a little time getting acquainted with each other, and Zhang Yucai does not believe that those soldiers of the empire are soft persimmons and let the sea beasts handle them, this is the second realm of the East China Sea, and it is not very deep, it is almost certain that there are only some ordinary sea beasts, and they can easily deal with it.

It was only the first day that he put so much pressure on the merit-selected students, and Zhang Yu estimated that Ma Lu had great expectations for them, as if he wanted to complete the mission of exploring the Taimaru Divine Island......

"Hey, those two students, what are you doing standing at the railing? Do you know that this is very dangerous?" Zhang Yu was thinking about it, when suddenly Ma Lu's angry voice came.

Ma Lu's roar suddenly shifted the attention of all the students to Zhang Yu and Shi Xiao. It's terrible, this old man is on fire, and you two are hitting the muzzle?

Liang Jianpei in the crowd laughed even more, it was best to drive Zhang Yu off the dragon boat and make him arrogant!

Zhang Yu slowly turned his head, a hint of an unconscious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but he hugged Shi Xiao's waist tightly, and said, "I know the Tao, so I am standing here waiting for danger!"

"Huh?" everyone was stunned, their minds seemed to be spinning, waiting for danger?

But soon, they understood the meaning of Zhang Yu's words.

"Huh"

Ma Lu was just about to get angry, when suddenly there was a loud noise, and he saw a long circular suction cup sticking out of the pitch-black sea water behind Zhang Yu......

Ma Lu and the others' faces changed drastically, they were sea beasts! Ma Lu immediately shouted: "Be careful!" At the same time, he rushed over, hoping to save Zhang Yu in time......

It's a pity that the distance is too far, and under the moonlight, the huge round suction cup has reached behind Zhang Yu. Just when everyone thought that Zhang Yu would die and was undoubtedly sucked into the sea by the sea beast, Zhang Yu held Shixiao like a ghost and instantly moved to another place, let go of Shixiao and pulled out the ice net, and backhanded a sword......

"Bang" Half of the slippery oily object was cut off by Zhang Yu, and the remaining half of the circular suction cup was quickly stretched back in pain. Zhang Yu didn't plan to let go of this uninvited sea beast.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time!" he stepped out and jumped into the sea.

"Ahh

"What??" Ma Lu was shocked, this young man was a monk in the Death Period?

On the sea, I saw Zhang Yu holding a pitch-black ice in his hand, stepping on the void with a cold expression, and confronting a huge sea beast head-on.

"Shallow-water sea beasts—long-disc lice!" Maru exclaimed.

Long disc lice, the second field of the East China Sea shallow water sea beast, huge in size, with 10,000 sucker-like feet, the body is tree-shaped, attacking sea beasts, carnivorous sea beasts, the body will secrete oily liquid, easy to escape when encountering natural enemies, it is a kind of sea beast that is more difficult to kill.

"Bastard, what are you doing? Hurry up!" Seeing the long lice floating on the surface of the sea with half of its body exposed, staring at Zhang Yu's angry long lice, Ma Lu was angry. The sea beast is as flexible as a fish in the water, and its speed and strength have increased dramatically, and the powerful human beings do not dare to rush into the water to hunt and kill, besides, this is a sea beast with long lice, and the suction power of a suction cup is endless, is this student crazy and wants to hunt it?

However, when Malu just shouted, one man and one beast had already moved.

The "whoosh" long lice suddenly rushed towards Zhang Yu, the speed was extremely fast, but Zhang Yu also moved instantly, and the ice in his hand slashed again and again.

The sword man was united, and Bing Ming once again communicated with his master's mind, and the suction cups attacked out of the water, attacking Zhang Yu at 360 degrees, but the speed of Bing Ming was even faster, and the quick knife cut the suckers into two pieces......

The scene of Zhang Yu easily fighting against the long lice made Ma Lu feel frightened for a while, is this student fighting or using the long lice as a practice? He has been sailing for so many years, and he has never encountered such a strange thing. This made him worry about Zhang Yu without any meaning.

"Whoa" The long lice had a pair of bloody eyes under its greasy skull, staring at the human being in front of him who was coming and going like the wind on the sea and moving like lightning, and his heart was full of anger.

Being so devastated by a tiny human being that the long-standing lice felt extremely humiliated. Its blood basin let out a cry of "lotus", and then it jumped suddenly, and with its momentum, its entire body left the water and pressed towards Zhang Yu......

"Shhh

"Break-" Seeing that the long lice pounced on him, Zhang Yu not only did not panic at all, but instead of retreating, he grabbed the ice and teleported to the chest of the long lice, shouted, and slashed the long sword fiercely, and then jumped back on the dragon boat splint.

"Pong"

A huge splash of water splashed the students watching on the splint, and when they looked closely, the long disc lice cut through the middle and divided into two corpses, smashed heavily into the sea, and slowly floated to the surface of the water in less than three seconds......

Except for the whirring sound of the sea breeze on the splint, there was silence.

It wasn't until Zhang Yu dragged Shixiao's hand back to his room that he heard a surprised cheer from the splint.

"Wow, was the long-disc lice sea beast really killed like this? Is that person a teacher at the academy?"

"Yes, didn't the old captain say that the sea beast was very powerful, how could it be cut in two so easily?"

"No, that person can control the sky, he is a master of the Separation Period, do you think we can kill the sea beast so easily?"

......

Ma Lu also woke up at this moment, and ran to investigate Zhang Yu's information with his body bent and feet, and this kind of student must be listed as the focus of attention......

In the crowd, Wu Kunming smiled wryly at the female students who were traveling with him: "It seems that the strength of the junior brother is far more than the performance in the competition!"

The female student also nodded in agreement, and Teacher Ye Mei beside her also witnessed the process of Zhang Yu fighting the sea beast alone, and snorted in her nose: "Let that guy be majestic again!"

"Young Master, it seems that the person who threw us into the water today is a master, how can we retaliate against him?" a guard asked Liang Jianpei in a trembling voice.

"Hmph, if it doesn't work, we'll come to Yin, I don't believe that your young master's wisdom can't kill that kid! You come here!" Liang Jianpei saw Zhang Yu's strength again, and he hated the other party even more in his heart, he leaned into the ears of several guards, and whispered a half-loud humm.

"Young master, is it okay? If there is a human life, will Your Majesty blame you?"

"What are you afraid of? It's really dead, my father is on top of it, don't forget that Qin Xing is still my uncle! Go, hurry up and prepare, tonight I will let him know that I am awesome! Ha Lu Ha

In the darkness of the stern of the dragon boat, Liang Jianpei's sinister smile came out, like a mad beast.

The dragon boat continued to sail, gradually moving away from the two carcasses of the long-disc lice. The sea was half a nautical red with blood. Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night...... (To be continued......)
