Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 212: Ocean Fleet
"Senior brother, you are serious."

Chen Mu's eyes flickered, and after a pause he chuckled and replied.

He was very clear about Wei Xingyou's concerns. He was simply worried that if he asked a foundation-building cultivator to accompany him, then after entering the East China Sea, the right to speak would no longer be in his hands and he would have to obey orders.

He was the best candidate after comprehensive consideration, so Wei Xingyou made such a request.

Wei Xingyou's face lit up with joy when he heard this, and he quickly raised his eyes and looked straight at Chen Mu, as if expecting him to nod in agreement.

"If it's above the East China Sea..."

Chen Mu frowned slightly and his mind was distracted, thinking about the feasibility of this trip.

He is currently on the verge of breaking through the spiritual consciousness level, and has already reached the requirements for the second level of essence and energy.

Therefore, the next most important step is to find a foundation-building pill and start planning a breakthrough.

With the number of spirit stones he currently has, one option is to stay safely at the mountain gate and wait for the next batch of foundation-building pills from the gate.

Although this path is safe and secure, it is unknown when the Foundation Establishment Pill will be in hand. It may be a year later, or five years later...

As for helping Wei Xingyou go out to sea, he was very tempted.

Because he had originally planned to wait until he had passed all three levels, then go out of the mountain and try his luck to see if he could come across an opportunity to build his foundation.

If Wei Xingyou could really do as he said, it would not be impossible for him to go out to sea with him.

After all, they have been together for more than ten years, and he knows Wei Xingyou's character and personality very well, not to mention his alchemy ability.

"His opportunity to reach the second stage might also be a good opportunity for me to establish my foundation..."

Thinking of this, Chen Mu's eyes became determined, and he raised his eyes and smiled, "I am willing to help my senior brother go to sea!"

"Are you serious?" Wei Xingyou raised his thick eyebrows, and when he saw Chen Mu nod, he laughed out loud: "Okay, okay! Junior Brother Chen treats me like a brother, I will definitely live up to your expectations!"

Chen Mu chuckled and nodded after hearing this. After a pause, he continued, "However, can the date of setting out to sea be postponed for a while? I want to wait until I have passed all three levels and polished my skills before setting out to sea. This will also increase the chances of success..."

Wei Xingyou's expression froze as he nodded repeatedly, "Junior Brother, what you said makes sense. How about this: we wait until after March before setting off again. I can also use this time to prepare some things, okay?"

"It'll be according to Brother's schedule!"

Chen Mu made up his mind and immediately agreed with a smile.

After saying this, Wei Xingyou did not stay any longer. After briefly speaking to Chen Mu, he left the pills and turned away.

Chen Mu no longer wasted his time thinking about it. After taking the pill, he went straight into the quiet room and started practicing.

……

Two months later, in the quiet room of the cave.

Chen Mu slowly opened his eyes, revealing a hint of satisfaction.

Looking at the charm in his eyes, he is much more extraordinary than two months ago.

If he used his spiritual awareness to extend it to its limit at this moment, the range would be over 180 feet, exceeding the requirement of the spiritual awareness level by more than 30 feet.

The same is true for the energy level. The blood in the body is surging non-stop, and the blood and energy around the body are evolving like a monster!
"I don't need to worry about the mana level. Just condensing Qi into liquid has already reached the foundation-building requirements..."

Chen Mu pursed his lips and smiled, stretched out his hand and gently held it, feeling a completely different sense of relief from before.

After a moment, he waved his hand to open the cave's restriction, and a red light immediately rushed in.

It was the jade slip that Wei Xingyou had sent a few days ago, but he was at the critical moment of refining the elixir at that time, so he was temporarily delayed.

Chen Mu summoned his magical power and gently tapped it, listening to the few words Wei Xingyou had recorded in it. After a while, he nodded gently and put away his magical power.

Wei Xingyou didn't have any major issues. He just talked about some preparations for the past two months and asked if he needed anything...

After an incense stick of time, he said a few simple words and threw the jade slip out.

"There's still a month left..."

Chen Mu's eyes were determined, and he immediately used his spiritual consciousness to probe into his dantian and began to write the patterns of the Rain Controlling Sword Technique.

……

In the blink of an eye, another month has passed.

The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the endless sea, as if telling a sorrow called separation.

After an unknown amount of time, two rays of light appeared quietly in the sky, and then slowly landed here.

When the light faded, the figures of two monks in ordinary gray robes appeared.

It was Chen Mu and Wei Xingyou!

Seven days ago, they set out from the mountain gate and flew north until they arrived at the ferry port in Yuehua County.

According to Wei Xingyou, although their destination was not far from the State of Zhao, the journey was full of dangers. They passed through the caves of several great foundation-building monsters and even the sea area controlled by the golden elixir monster general.

So after some consideration, they abandoned the idea of ​​traveling long distances alone by boat and chose the method of a long-distance fleet.

Among the Zhao State's fleet heading to the East China Sea, the Yuehua Mountain lineage was the most famous. There had not been any dangerous experience of shipwreck and death in decades, so it was naturally chosen by the two men. They decided to follow the Yuehua Mountain fleet as it approached the destination of this journey.

Chen Mu and the other man went straight into the port without stopping, then paid a hundred spirit stones and boarded a huge spirit boat parked on the seashore.

This spiritual boat is about fifty feet long and has three floors.

The lower level contains many spiritual materials placed on Yuehua Mountain, which are used to exchange for rare treasures in the sea when passing through various islands.

The middle level was a gathering place for individual travelers, with hundreds of cushions placed on them. Dozens of people were already seated there. Even in this large cabin, it didn't seem overly crowded.

The upper level is composed of separate private rooms. Although simply decorated, they are quiet and comfortable.

Chen Mu and his friend didn't like noise, so they simply bought tickets for two private rooms.

Of course, the spirit stones were provided by the wealthy alchemist Wei Xingyou.

Not long after, a pretty maid came and led them to the third-floor box.

"Two seniors, is there anything else you need? We have the Hanyue Spiritual Tea grown on Yuehua Mountain on the boat, as well as a variety of spiritual wines and meals, all at very cheap prices..."

The maid smiled and spoke softly to Chen Mu and the others.

"No need, go down!"

Wei Xingyou waved his hand expressionlessly and sent the maid away.

"Junior Brother Chen, this fleet is safe, but it's slower than us traveling alone. Please go to your room and rest. If there are any changes, I will discuss it with you immediately."

"Okay!" Chen Mu nodded without refusing, turned around and went into the side room, then sat cross-legged and closed his eyes to rest.

After all, this trip is mainly led by Wei Xingyou, so unless his safety is endangered, he will not express different opinions so as not to affect Wei Xingyou's judgment.

At noon the next day, as more and more monks boarded the spirit boat, the boat began to shake slightly.
