The vast sea, the clear waves.

Fang Qianyuan was draped in a big hat, standing on the high ship tower and looking into the distance, and on the side were several disciples wearing the costumes of the Flying Immortal Sect to introduce him to the situation in the sea.

Fang Lian stood behind with a smile on her face, comparing the charts and learning the knowledge of navigation in the sea.

At this time, it had been three days since they left Dongfeng Island, and under the leadership of the disciples of the Flying Immortal Sect, the group drove into the channel formed by the gathering of ocean currents, and advanced according to the route designated by the fishing elder, heading towards the direction of the battlefield hundreds of thousands of miles away.

According to the disciples of the Flying Immortal Sect, ocean currents and monsoons are both important factors in sea navigation, and many treasure ships can travel more than 10,000 miles a day with the help of them, which is already the speed of a true earth-level spiritual object.

If these factors are ignored, or even against the currents and monsoons, the drastic reduction will be less than half.

If the treasure ship is like this, the mortal ship will not be able to move an inch.

Moreover, most of the mature waterways are on the edge of the territory of the demon beasts, which is a relatively safe place in the sea.

If you break into an unfamiliar sea area, you may be attacked by all kinds of terrifying monsters emerging from the bottom of the sea at any time, and you can resist a little with a ground-level spirit master, but if you only have a human level, it is very likely that the ship will be destroyed and people will die, and even the entire fleet will be wiped out.

Moreover, the monster beast comes from the bottom of the sea, and the ground level master cannot always be on guard, and it is even more difficult to protect the safety of the ship that is a dead thing, and once it is damaged, it is also a difficult situation.

If Qun Yao is alone, he can still travel lightly with one or two spiritual mounts like those scattered cultivators, but he has a large number of subordinates and supplies, so he has to choose a relatively safe route.

The East China Sea Righteous Path has all kinds of talents for detection and pursuit, as well as the corresponding ability, and when necessary, it can even lock its whereabouts through divination techniques similar to prophecy, so Fang Qianyuan and the others are now advancing along the waterway, which is the best choice.

Fang Qianyuan listened to the introduction of the disciples of the Flying Immortal Sect, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "The matter of navigation is really complicated, no wonder for more than ten thousand years, the human race has never truly conquered the sea! ”

A disciple of the Flying Immortal Sect smiled and said, "What Elder Fang said is very true, I have heard that some mortals have even invented sailless ships that use heavenly flint to boil water and produce steam to propel the oars in order to simulate the magic weapon treasure ship, which can travel thousands of miles a day. ”

"In the East China Sea, although the power of mortals is small, in terms of sum, it has even caught up with the monks and has become a force to be reckoned with. ”

"Is that so?"

The speaker was unintentional, the listener was intentional, Fang Qianyuan couldn't help but be slightly stunned when he heard this.

Thinking about it, the carrying capacity of the sea is always stronger than that of the land, although there are endless dangers in the deep sea, but they can be avoided by various means, and many of the islands and continents inhabited by mortals are shallow, which provides favorable conditions for them to create and circulate wealth.

Under the nourishment of such conditions, it is indeed very likely to develop and prosper.

"Look, a few ships have appeared in front, as if they are flying the flag of the Chamber of Commerce!"

While Fang Qianyuan and the others were talking, a warning came from the lookout of the soldiers on duty.

When everyone heard this, they all cast magical spells and looked forward, and sure enough, they saw several black dots appearing on the sea in the distance.

It was a total of six ordinary wooden boats of more than ten zhang in size, and they were approaching at an unhurried speed.

Compared with everyone's fleet, the lineup of these ships can be described as extremely shabby, but the disciples of the Flying Immortal Sect still did not carelessly, and dutifully reminded: "The sea is vast, the water element is abundant, even the earth-level spirit master, the perception is also easily disturbed, it is difficult to judge whether there is a master in charge through the breath of the other party, and some casual cultivators like to use mortal ships as a cover, confusing the past business travelers, and when they get close to loot, we must be careful to prevent people." ”

"Really?" Fang Qianyuan let out a divine thought when he heard this, felt the breath of the distance, and sure enough, he felt that it was cloudy, like seeing flowers in the fog.

This is the effect of too much water vitality on the sea, and the ships are far away, so it is indeed impossible to judge the number and cultivation of the opponent.

Fang Lian asked, "Are there a lot of loose cultivators in the sea who do evil?"

The disciples of the Flying Immortal Sect smiled bitterly: "Not a lot, but very, very many! There are even people on land who feel that all the people in the East China Sea are thieves!"

"Of course, this is a misunderstanding, but the sea is vast, even if you do evil, it is easy to kill people, as long as you can sink the opponent's ship, except above the ground level, almost no people or spiritual creatures can survive......"

"And it doesn't matter if you don't succeed in sinking the ship, as long as you can escape at that time, you are a little thief, and you have to spend a lot of manpower and material resources to search for it, and you may not be able to find it, so the deeper the sea, the more it is outside the law!"

Everyone is not a novice, and they understand everything as soon as they hear it.

Such a vast sea is indeed a treasure land where bandits are rampant.

The right way here is not prosperous, but everyone who has some ability wants to cut the path and rob the wealth and make a fortune.

Even some righteous people and children of families with decent styles will inevitably arm their fleets and fight everywhere.

Only by empowering themselves can they survive in the East China Sea, and over time, they will also swallow the property of pirates and evil cultivators, and even appear righteous strongmen who specialize in hunting each other for a living.

Fang Qianyuan said: "From this point of view, these ships that suddenly appeared may indeed be a threat, but it doesn't matter, we continue to move forward and destroy them as soon as the other party shows their intention to attack." ”

Everyone said, "Yes!"

The contrast between the two sides is so obvious, even if they say that they should be vigilant, few people take it seriously.

Therefore, the minds of the people are light.

But a moment later, everyone suddenly saw a sparkling wave on the surface of the sea.

"What's that?" Fang Qianyuan asked suspiciously.

The disciple of the Flying Immortal Sect looked at it and was also a little puzzled: "I can't see it clearly, I have to get closer." ”

But at this moment, another disciple suddenly said in surprise: "Fish, that's a fish!"

"Fish, it's already a deep sea here, will there be a school of fish?" asked the bystander, puzzled.

Seeing that Fang Qianyuan and the others cast puzzled eyes, he hurriedly explained: "Although the sea area is vast, not all places are suitable for fish to live, and places that are too deep are like deserts on land, lacking aquatic plants and algae......

The exclaimed disciple said, "You're right, but don't forget that there are spells that can be used! I've heard that some pirates are good at harnessing fish, and they can attract sea monsters, knock over enemy ships, and wait for an opportunity to attack!"

"This school of fish is strange, you have to be more careful!"
