129: Chapter 129 Demon Soul Great White Shark
Several dozen days later, Ji Xuan and his group arrived at the outer waters of Sea God Island.
The boat they had chartered carried a total of ten people, including the captain.
They all had dark, weathered complexions and hands covered in calluses, clearly seasoned veterans who had made their living at sea for years.
Initially, when Feng Xiaotian found this group and stated their destination, the middle-aged captain with a resolute face refused without a second thought.
But when Feng Xiaotian brought out a heavy bag of gold coins, the captain's attitude changed instantly.
From initial resistance, it slowly turned to struggle, and finally, only a desperate determination remained.
This money was enough to keep their families fed and clothed for the rest of their lives; even if an accident occurred on this trip, it would be worth it.
They finally gritted their teeth and accepted the job.
Before departing, everyone sent their share of the gold coins back home; it was the final guarantee they left for their families.
To avoid unnecessary trouble, Ji Xuan specifically had them bypass the Demon Whale sea area.
Although this would delay their journey somewhat, the loss of time was insignificant.
The outside world knew that the ruler of that sea area was a 100,000-year Spirit Beast, but Ji Xuan knew better.
That Deep Sea Demon Whale King was a terrifying existence infinitely close to a million years; in this boundless ocean, its strength had already touched the threshold of a god.
Although one could judge the resting orientation of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King based on seasonal changes and sail in the direction of its long-blind left eye, there was a high probability of not provoking it.
But it was better to be safe than sorry; if an accident occurred, he might be able to escape, but it was hard to say for the people around him.
"My lord, ahead is Sea God Island; our boat can only go this far." The captain said, bowing to Ji Xuan, who stood on the deck with his hands behind his back.
Facing Ji Xuan, he didn't even dare to breathe loudly.
Along this journey, the deeper they went, the more frequent the attacks from sea Spirit Beasts became.
The most dangerous encounter was when they met a 20,000-year-old Abyssal Demon Octopus, whose thick tentacles nearly overturned the entire ship.
Yet Ji Xuan only made a slight move, and a few sharp Sword Qi severed all the tentacles, leaving the crew terrified.
"Very well, you may return." Ji Xuan turned around and said calmly.
Subsequently, he gathered Feng Xiaotian and the others to the center of the deck.
With a slight thought, cyan longswords condensed out of thin air, hovering in mid-air.
"Come up; we will fly over."
Ji Xuan reached out and wrapped his arm around Shui Binger's slender waist, then tapped his toes and was the first to step onto one of the Flying Swords.
He knew clearly that the outer waters of Sea God Island were guarded by the 100,000-year Spirit Beast Xiao Bai and her entire clan.
To avoid conflict with them in the sea, it was better to fly directly; it was both convenient and efficient.
Upon hearing this, everyone stepped onto the longswords one after another.
Feng Xiaotian held Huo Wu's hand, landing on the same Flying Sword.
Xie Yue and Huo Wushuang each occupied one, standing tall.
Shui Yueer pulled Hu Liena along; she really didn't dare to do it alone.
Traveling together during this period, Hu Liena often sought out Shui Yueer to chat about Ji Xuan; back and forth, the two had become increasingly close.
After everyone stood steady, Ji Xuan moved his mind again, and several Flying Swords rose into the air simultaneously, flying towards the distant Sea God Island.
The crew on the deck looked up, their eyes filled with envy and awe.
The wind at high altitude carried a bit of chill, making everyone's clothes flutter loudly.
"Ah! Brother-in-law! Slow down!" Shui Yueer closed her eyes tightly, her hands clutching Hu Liena's waist for dear life.
This was her first time experiencing sword flight; at this height, she didn't even have the courage to open her eyes.
A smile curled at the corners of Ji Xuan's lips, and with a slight shift of his thoughts, the Flying Sword sped up even more.
"Ah—! Brother-in-law! I'm not done with you!" Sensing the sudden increase in speed, Shui Yueer screamed in terror, pressing her whole body against Hu Liena.
Just then, the calm sea below suddenly surged, with massive waves towering into the sky.
A massive figure broke through the water from the sea; it was the 100,000-year Spirit Beast, the Devil Spirit Great White Shark King, Xiao Bai.
Almost the moment she appeared, hundreds of Devil Spirit Great White Sharks followed in succession behind her.
Xiao Bai locked her gaze firmly on Ji Xuan and his group high above, but she couldn't do anything to them at all.
Firstly, the speed of Ji Xuan's Flying Sword was astonishingly fast.
Secondly, the altitude at which everyone was located was extremely high; even though she was the overlord of the sea, she could not take flight to pursue them at this moment.
Seeing that the destination of this group was Sea God Island, Xiao Bai was instantly furious: "Outsiders! How dare you behave so presumptuously on Sea God Island!"
Xiao Bai's figure immediately submerged into the water, swimming towards the direction of Sea God Island.
Ji Xuan in the air only glanced calmly at Xiao Bai's figure, not even frowning.
The speed of the Flying Sword increased a bit more.
In just a moment, everyone landed on the coast of Sea God Island.
When her feet touched the ground, only then did Shui Yueer dare to slowly open her eyes, and she immediately glared fiercely at Ji Xuan, her cheeks puffed up in anger.
"Sister! Brother-in-law is bullying me!" She released Hu Liena's waist and scurried over to Shui Binger's side, complaining aggrievedly.
"You girl, aren't you usually fearless?" Shui Binger smiled helplessly.
Shui Yueer still wanted to say something, but the sea behind them suddenly exploded.
A huge figure, enveloped in towering waves, rushed onto the beach like an arrow released from a bow.
Amidst the splashing water, the massive shark body rapidly shrank and transformed, becoming a woman dressed in tight-fitting attire.
Although she had transformed into human form, she still retained the characteristics of a Spirit Beast.
Xiao Bai stared fixedly at Ji Xuan and his group, the Soul Power fluctuations around her body extremely violent; she was clearly truly enraged.
"Humans!" Xiao Bai shouted angrily, "How dare you trespass on Sea God Island!"
"Is this a 100,000-year Spirit Beast transformation?" Feng Xiaotian's pupils shrank, "But it seems a bit different..."
Huo Wu and the others also revealed expressions of shock and suspicion, their eyes scanning back and forth over Xiao Bai, alarm bells ringing in their hearts.
Without any hesitation, several of them released their Spirit almost simultaneously.
Only Ji Xuan remained indifferent to the tense atmosphere surrounding them.
He stepped forward and said calmly: "We are here to participate in the trials."
But Xiao Bai acted as if she hadn't heard at all, killing intent surging in the depths of her eyes.
Ji Xuan's eyes turned slightly cold, and the Sword of Order condensed in his palm.
At the same time, circles of spirit ring rose from under his feet one by one: Purple, Purple, Black, Black, Black.
As a 100,000-year Spirit Beast, Xiao Bai was an overlord in the sea, possessing formidable strength.
But once she left the water and came ashore, her power would be greatly reduced.
Even with his current strength, he was still not her match, but at the very least, he would definitely not be easily defeated.
"This... how is this possible!"
The moment Xiao Bai saw that spirit ring configuration clearly, her pupils shrank suddenly.
But soon, she recovered, her Soul Power surging violently.
"Stop!"
Seeing that a battle was on the verge of breaking out, a voice came from the depths of the island.
