After Chun Yuyi introduced the person who led the team, he began to arrange follow-up actions. This trip to the Thousand Ice Islands will depart tomorrow morning, and before that, everyone will have a little free time to prepare, say goodbye to family and friends, bring the necessary items, etc.

Gong Huaiming just returned to Lonely Spirit Island and said hello to Ouyang Jingyuan, saying that he was going to go on a long trip and might not be at home for a few months.

Tong Wenjian took out some newly refined Fire Cloud Beads and handed them to Gong Huaiming, asking him to take them with him. The cultivation of alchemy is not much easier than the improvement of the cultivation realm, and the cultivation of alchemy is extremely time-consuming, Tong Wenjian spent a lot of time studying alchemy, not to mention that he has not advanced an inch in the cultivation realm for a long time. Of course, this does not mean that if Tong Wenjian concentrates on cultivation, he can improve in the cultivation realm, and many people may not be able to do this after decades of cultivation.

In the early morning of the next day, Gong Huaiming left Guling Island and rushed to the dock of Qunfeng Island to gather. The ship they took this time was not an ordinary sea ship made by secular people, but a sea ship made by the Divine Cave Gate and suitable for cultivators, this kind of ship not only resisted wind and waves, but could resist all kinds of marine disasters on the boundless sea, and also had the advantage of fast speed, under normal circumstances, the sailing speed could reach four to five times the speed of the best speeder made by the world, and at the limit speed, it could exceed ten times. The main reason for this is due to the magic circle on the ship. As long as the supply of spars is continuous, the sea vessel can always be in the best condition.

There is no teleportation array between the three archipelagos, which has a lot to do with the lack of high-level cultivators in the three archipelagos, and the communication between them mainly relies on various ships. Sometimes, for some considerations, such as saving costs, winning people's hearts, etc., the three major sects will also let the secular people who are attached to them help them do something, and it is for this reason that the old Xu family's ocean ship shuttles back and forth between the three archipelagos.

This time, the Shenqi Gate sent a medium-sized building ship, with three wooden floors on the deck, a total of dozens of rooms, and the top floor was inhabited by five team leaders led by Chun Yuyi, and the other was Xu Lingxuan and her personal guards.

Gong Huaiming lived on the lowest floor, he just wanted to stay away from Xu Lingxuan, when assigning the room, if he hadn't given Dai Xuan'er a look, he was afraid that they would be assigned to the middle floor. Dai Xuan'er lives next door to Gong Huaiming, not so that something can happen between the two of them, but that other inner disciples and their personal guards live like this, which is also to be able to provide the fastest service to the inner disciples.

Gong Huaiming and his entourage totaled about 40 people, and eight of them were responsible for driving the sea boats. After getting on the boat and assigning the room, Chun Yuyi went back to his room to practice.

Dai Xuan'er invited Gong Huaiming and another personal guard to her room, and the other personal guard she selected was a woman in her forties, Guan Xiaohong, who was one of the few female masters of the outer gate of the Shenqi Gate. This woman's appearance is not bad, and she is well maintained, and it is rumored that her private life is very debauched, and there are at least eleven or twelve outer disciples who maintain a relationship with her.

Of course, how her private life is is and her level of fighting skills has little to do with her surname, and Dai Xuan'er and Gong Huaiming did not look down on or treat Guan Xiaohong slowly because of this.

Dai Xuan'er said polite words first, nothing more than to thank Gong Huaiming and Guan Xiaohong, and hoped that the three of them could leave good memories on this journey to and from the Thousand Ice Islands, and there would be no unnecessary misunderstandings.

Dai Xuan'er's posture was very low, and her words were friendly and measured, and there was still a little bit of the appearance of teasing Gong Huaiming in public yesterday. Guan Xiaohong first expressed her loyalty to Dai Xuan'er, and then expressed her closeness to Gong Huaiming, expressing her willingness to assist Gong Huaiming in Dai Xuan'er's "personal guard" matters.

Although Gong Huaiming has not had any dealings with other Outer Gate Mansion Masters, his reputation among the Outer Gate Mansion Masters is still very high, and this is an unexpected gain that he brought after defeating Tian Yihong.

In the blink of an eye, a few days passed, everything was calm, Gong Huaiming either meditated with peace of mind, or studied all kinds of books related to cultivation that he carried when he went out, and Dai Xuan'er had not looked for him again in the past few days. Xu Lingxuan didn't meet him either.

On this day, the wind is beautiful, the sun is high, the sea breeze is blowing, a few seabirds can occasionally be seen fishing in the air, and the blue waves above the sea surface are rippling, a peaceful scene.

Gong Huaiming heard a commotion outside the deck, and he just felt a little depressed, so he opened the door and walked outside the room. There were many people gathered on the deck, pointing to the sea and shouting.

Gong Huaiming walked over to take a look, and in the sea about two zhang away from the boat, there were three hammerhead sharks, their dorsal fins and part of their backs exposed to the sea, one in front and two behind, swimming forward.

These three bladed hammerhead sharks were probably not hungry, or they knew that the sea ship of the Shenqi Gate was not easy to mess with, so they never attacked the sea ship, but kept maintaining the same speed as the sea ship, as if they were escorting the sea ship.

The blade hammerhead shark has a fierce appearance, but it is also a demon beast that is very attractive to cultivators, especially Gong Huaiming once sold a blade hammerhead shark to a protector of the inner gate, and that protector immediately became one of the most popular characters on Fufang Island, he once rode the blade hammerhead shark on different occasions, and every time he earned enough eyeballs.

Many people on the ship had seen the Dharma Protector riding a bladed hammerhead shark, and they were all envious. At this time, they came across three hammerhead sharks, no wonder they were so excited.

For the cultivators on the ship, it was not difficult to kill the Blade Hammerhead Shark, but it was very difficult to capture it alive, and after capturing it alive, it was even more difficult to domesticate it into a mount. Therefore, they looked at the hammerhead shark one by one, but none of them were willing to make a move, so as not to scare the hammerhead shark away, at that time, it would be useless to catch the hammerhead shark again.

Of the nine inner disciples sent by the Divine Wing Sect to the Thousand Ice Islands to participate in the Great Competition this time, five of them were female disciples, and each female disciple was not too old, and the oldest Dai Xuan'er was only thirty years old, which was very young among the cultivators. These five female disciples also have a common characteristic, that is, they do not have dual cultivation partners, which is also what the four male inner disciples have in common.

Thank you for the reward of "Leann, Liushi Chengge, and Yanning", thank you.
