Volume 6: Overseas Chapter 282: Treasure Ship on the Sea
Above the vast ocean, under the bright moon, a small boat emerges from the waves and sails across the sea.
There was someone on the boat, it was Liu San.
Liu San steadied the boat with his feet, exerted force with his palms, and slowly pushed forward with the force of his palms. The boat suddenly shot out like a flying arrow, speeding through the wind and waves, almost leaving the water.
The hand pressing the knife was still trembling, as if he had used too much force, causing his knuckles to lose their color. Not only were his pupils shrinking, but even his heart was shrinking.
Even so, Liu San still felt it was not fast enough.
"Faster!"
He pushed the boat forward with all his might.
In this way, when the island behind him was no longer visible, Liu San finally breathed a sigh of relief, but then his hands and feet started to feel cold.
The man was defeated before he even made a move.
In this battle, the enemy did not injure or kill him, but it shattered his confidence in facing the enemy and his courage to draw his sword, crushing him completely from the very beginning.
Such a person is definitely not someone he can defeat alone.
Unfathomable.
"Li Muchan."
Liu San whispered the name softly, as if he wanted to remember it clearly and keep it in his heart.
And behind the boat, among the ever-rising waves, a figure was following in the distance.
Li Muchan restrained his own energy, stepped on a piece of broken wood, his body was as light as paper, and he was unsinkable. Even his eyelids drooped slightly. He didn't even look at the other person, but just followed closely.
He had a feeling that this trip might lead to some shocking discovery.
The old ghost who collects corpses might have other intentions.
This person is really hiding too deeply.
If the other party was concerned about the Zhu family, he should have shown up earlier instead of sitting back and watching the Demon Cult move eastward, allowing Gongzi Yu to rise, Tan Wushuang to rise, as well as Shangguan Xiaoxian and Li Muchan to rise.
After all, no matter how powerful the Shen family is, they are still overseas. As long as they stabilize the situation in the Central Plains martial arts world and add the power of the imperial court, who would dare to challenge them in this situation?
But this man did not hesitate to go overseas, and remained indifferent even though the Central Plains martial arts world experienced several disasters.
In this case, the other party is definitely not in the same group as Zhu Si, nor is he in the same group as Bai Yujing, and he is not even in the same group as the emperor. Adding these seven disciples, it is enough to show that the other party has other intentions.
Moreover, the seven people including Liu San were just the opponent's disciples. Maybe the old ghost had many other masters under his command.
Just the mysterious swordsman who can compete with Ah Fei is extraordinary. There are also Persian masters and Monte Cristo masters. I am afraid there are some unspeakable secrets hidden among them.
Liu San was completely unaware of Li Muchan's presence. He chose a direction and headed forward.
Li Muchan glanced at the setting moon, identified the stars in the night sky, and then, based on the sea chart, concluded that the other party was heading northeast.
The island just now was only on the outskirts of this sea area. Now Liu San is rushing to the deeper part, he must be thinking of reporting the news and asking for help.
The two chased each other, not knowing how far they had gone. The moon, which was originally high in the sky, had already set in the west.
Just at this moment, Li Muchan slowly raised his slightly drooping eyes and looked forward.
He looked in the direction of Liu San and saw a piece of land of medium size exposed . On it stood an extremely steep stone mountain, but it looked desolate and barren, with only sand and rocks, and no sign of life.
The island was dead silent. Not only were there no living people, but not even any birds or animals were to be seen.
No, there is someone.
Li Muchan's eyes moved slightly, the broken wood under his feet sank immediately, and his whole body slowly sank into the sea.
Then I saw torches lighting up on the island.
But strangely, Liu San only met the other party and did not speak. Instead, he bypassed the island and continued on his way.
And in the water, a figure was like a swimming dragon, its speed increasing instead of decreasing, so fast that it was unbelievable.
The two of them walked for a while, one in front and one behind, and circled seven deserted islands in succession, and finally slowed down.
Li Muchan stuck his head out and saw a huge island in front of him.
This island is different from the ones we encountered before. It is covered with dense forests and divided into two by a narrow crack. From a distance, it looks like two isolated islands put together into one piece. There is a solitary peak standing on each bank. The shape of the mountain is as steep as a sword, which is even more magical.
Almost at the moment of approaching, Li Muchan had already sensed a lot of strong and weak energy.
But Liu San didn't stop yet. He slowed down and squeezed into the narrow path between the two peaks.
Ripples appeared on the water and the boat moved slowly.
On both sides of the island, streams of energy emerged from the darkness one after another. Seeing that it was Liu San, they all retreated and hid in the darkness.
Seeing this, even Li Muchan couldn't help but feel alert and acted unusually serious.
He was not surprised by the strength of these people, but was surprised by the formation here.
It seems that this is not a simple matter after all. This trip is not as easy as I imagined.
It is said that Liu San was in front, sailing the boat past two mountains, and the world in front of him suddenly opened up.
At this moment, Li Muchan couldn't help but open his eyes wide, as if he saw something unusual.
But at the end of the narrow gap, beyond two mountains, there was a strange land surrounded by land, and there was another cave.
This place is connected to the sea, and it looks like a mirror of unknown size, reflecting the stars and the bright moon in the sky, with a layer of bright white light.
And above this mirror, there was actually a huge ship floating, an unimaginably huge ship.
The ship is about thirty-four meters long and nearly ten meters wide. It is crowded with people and brightly lit, making it extremely lively.
The sails were towering, and there were many figures moving around on the masts and sides of the ship. In addition to people from the Central Plains, there were also many foreigners chatting and laughing, dressed in strange clothes.
Seeing this scene, Li Muchan couldn't help but be surprised.
There was actually such a large ship docked here. Just looking at the lights, the noisy voices, and the many people coming and going, there were at least 20,000 people on it.
How come there are so many people?
In addition, this does not include those on the islands. Together with the people from other islands that passed by before, there are probably nearly 30,000 people in total.
Li Muchan looked solemn. Looking at the large ship, it was clearly from the Central Plains, but the hull was old and looked quite old.
These strange things really happen one after another.
He knew that the other party was hiding something very powerful, but he didn't expect that he was hiding such an incredible thing.
After arriving here, Liu San was completely relieved and a smile appeared on his face again. He did not stop all the way and rushed straight to the right side of the big ship. He did not climb up until someone threw a rope from above.
But just as he left the boat, a person quietly slid out of the water, without making any sound or stirring up any waves, and landed on his back with a gentle sway.
The smile on Liu San's face froze instantly. He opened his mouth to scream, but a chill that hit his body startled him and he quickly shut his mouth.
"Take me upstairs." Li Muchan said softly.
As he spoke, the muscles on his face moved, his features changed, and even his voice changed, becoming low, hoarse and shrill.
Liu San's face was grim, but as Li Muchan placed his left hand on his shoulder, a terrifying suction force immediately came over him. Feeling the uncontrolled outflow of internal energy from his Dantian, he hurriedly said in a trembling voice, "Sir, please show mercy. I am willing to obey your orders."
