Sea Cultivation: Giant Ships and Heavy Artillery Knock on the Door to All Races

Chapter 85: Retreat from the current, the storm is coming

In the days that followed.

Lin Qianfan entered this positive cycle, and while ensuring the steady improvement of his strengths in all aspects, he continued to make money, slowly filling up his small treasury.

"Amazing! Lord Jiaomian has won fifteen consecutive games!"

A small number of people started betting on the dragon to win from the very first game and won a lot of money. Among them, a very small number of individuals were even so stubborn that they kept betting on the dragon to win and made a lot of money.

"Fuck, I lost again."

Everyone's mentality is different, and it can even be said that the difference is huge. As Lin Qianfan has defeated many well-known fighters in succession, and even challenged the eighth level of Qi Refining, there are always people who think that the next game will be the limit of Jiao Mian, so there are also many people who lose money.

"Is this kid pretending to be a pig on purpose?"

"Isn't it obvious? He's been playing the pig to eat the tiger all along. I just don't know where his limit is."

“Excellent acting!”

Lin Qianfan's performance was no different from that of the beaver beast. Except for the first few wins, the subsequent wins were not so easy, giving people the illusion that as long as the opponent was stronger, he could definitely be defeated.

In fact, the audience also understands these routines, but this is the weakness of human nature. There are always people who believe that Lin Qianfan will be defeated in the next game, so someone loses badly in every game.

"Master Zou, would you like to take on the human-animal fight?"

"I won't consider it for now. I'll wait until I reach the eighth level of Qi Refining."

This is not the first time that the Colosseum has made this proposal. After Lin Qianfan won several games in a row, he became popular and received a corresponding appearance fee.

But the scale of the fighting between monks was really not that big. It was well received but not popular, and did not achieve the expected profit of the Colosseum.

"Are you really not going to consider it? We can increase your appearance fee, and fighting monsters can also hone your fighting skills. It's a win-win situation, so why not?"

"There are too many uncertainties, no need to persuade!"

The risk of the battle between humans and demons is extremely high!
It doesn't mean that you can stop the monster just by asking it to. Once the blood and energy surge up, it can't stop, and usually the outcome is a life or death.

The strength of monsters is not as concrete as that of human cultivators. Fighting to the death with a ferocious and brainless monster in a small space is definitely not a wise choice. Lin Qianfan is not willing to take this risk.

It’s not that Lin Qianfan doesn’t have the ability. He is confident that he can kill most late-stage monsters, but he prefers to face wild monsters, so that he has more room to maneuver.

"Looks like we need to cool down a bit."

Seeing Li Wanting's extremely expectant eyes turn into disappointment, Lin Qianfan realized that he had earned enough money and needed to stay low-key.

In the fifteen consecutive victories of Jiao Mian, his opponents in the first few matches were slaves at the seventh level of Qi Refining in the Colosseum. After that, Jiao Mian became the champion and accepted several challenges from the seventh level of Qi Refining.

After that, Jiao Mian, who had been winning streak, challenged the slave of the eighth level of Qi Refining and won the battle. From then on, he became the champion of the eighth level of Qi Refining and accepted several challenges of the eighth level of Qi Refining.

Nowadays, the odds of winning Jiaomian are shockingly low, and the opponents you encounter are becoming more and more powerful, with no one being a scumbag.

Lin Qianfan had already achieved the original purpose of the competition and felt that there was no need to continue, otherwise the risks would be uncontrollable.

"Fairy Li, let's leave this challenge at that for now. I need to calm down."

"what?"

Li Wanting obviously did not expect that Lin Qianfan, who was at the peak of his popularity, would propose to withdraw.

"Did I say something wrong? Or is there something wrong with our Colosseum? We can discuss it."

"No, I've been too impetuous recently, and my mind needs some peace and quiet. I'll come back after a while, and then maybe I'll try to fight against the ninth level of Qi Refining and later stage monsters."

"Then I will wait patiently for good news from Master Zou."

After all, the Blue Coast Colosseum was a legitimate institution, regulated by various factions. Zou Ji's status now provided a certain degree of protection, preventing the other party from resorting to trickery or force. To retreat at the height of one's power was a true sign of a true man.

Strength and wealth need to be matched. Lin Qianfan's appearance fee for each battle plus the gambling profits totaled over a hundred. After fifteen games, he actually earned nearly two thousand spirit stones from the Colosseum.

Two thousand spirit stones can replace a whole set of good quality high-grade magic tools; you can also buy one or two second-hand top-grade magic tools; you may even get one or two foundation-building spiritual objects with side effects.

This is a very strong purchasing power. Most cultivators in the late stage of Qi Refining do not have this configuration.

Money moves people's hearts.
A cultivator at the seventh level of Qi Refining would indeed be powerful in a fair one-on-one fight in the Colosseum, but there was no guarantee that someone would take the risk and use some unknown means.

"What a shrewd person, but unfortunately he is too defensive. We are not even friends. Sigh~"

Ever since Li Wanting knew that Lin Qianfan was the son of the Zou family, she wanted to make formal friends with Lin Qianfan, but Lin Qianfan had no interest in her, not even in making friends with her.

Therefore, the relationship between the two parties has always remained at the most basic business cooperation relationship.

"The storm season is coming soon, and this cooperation has been suspended again. It's really a headache."

Yes, before he knew it, Lin Qianfan had been in Lan'an Market for three months.

With the blessing of Lin Qianfan's identity, strength and skills, Lin Qianfan, who worked non-stop every day, saved up more than 2,000 spirit stones in one go. He was not far from exchanging for the Foundation Establishment Pill, but his cultivation level was a little behind.

But Lin Qianfan was cautious and did not intend to speed up his cultivation based on his current progress.

Haste makes waste!

With storm season approaching,
The Blue Shore Market is becoming more and more deserted day by day. The monks who do not belong here have basically withdrawn after shopping. It often requires a certain level of strength to be active during the storm season.

"I wonder which unlucky people will die this year."

Storm season is a season of disasters, and it is also a process of natural selection. Whenever storm season comes, natural disasters such as tsunamis, hurricanes, heavy rains, and thunder will appear randomly in various places in the Ocean of Storms.

At this time, human individuals often appear very small, and humans will instinctively hide.

In the past, Lin Qianfan naturally stayed in Yanglong Bay, but this time he stayed in Lan'an Market.

There are generally no security issues in the second-level market, which is sufficient for protection. There are still many first-level forces in the wilderness.

First-order forces often have their own ways of survival. Caves, grottoes, ravines, mines and even deep wells can be used as emergency shelters.

Of course, under normal circumstances, we would never encounter such a severe situation, otherwise the human population would not be able to reproduce normally.

The areas that suffer the most from disasters are often the oceans, where the weaker marine creatures are the ones that have no control over their fate.

A few days later, the first hurricane made landfall in the Ichthyosaur Islands.

"This north wind is really biting. The temperature has dropped so much. I hope it doesn't get any worse."

Lin Qianfan, who was in the second-level formation, could clearly feel that the disaster this year was more severe.

"In places where the environment is even worse, survival is a concern."

In a small sense, Lin Qianfan likes stability. In a big sense, once a disaster occurs, it will affect all aspects of the Yulong Islands and thus affect the interests of the Lin family.

"Sir, the General Affairs Hall has issued several missions to eliminate monsters. It seems that the situation this year is not optimistic."

"Is it that serious?"

"Well, several villages closest to the sea were caught off guard and completely wiped out. The remaining villages are also moving towards the market as appropriate."
