Fayzon’s face went as black as thunder. Yet, he could not do anything about it because he did not want to incite public outrage. After all, people would do anything at all in the face of a life-and-death situation.
If the crowd were backed into a corner and made a move against him, he might not be able to handle so many people despite being a Tribulator cultivator.
“Watch out, kid. So long as you dare go ashore, I’ll definitely kill you!” he threatened. Nonetheless, Jared was not the least bit intimidated.
I’ve got a divine turtle and can go ashore anytime. As long as I leave this place at that time, I don’t think he’d still be able to find me. Furthermore, even if he doesn’t hunt me down, the Demon Seal Alliance would likely never let me off the hook. Thus, he did not fear those from the Demon Seal Alliance. The animosity between them was already set in stone.
“You should all ride on the divine turtle’s back and leave, Mr. Chance. As for Fayzon, I’ll keep a close eye on him. If he dares make a move against you, I’ll get him. The worst that could happen is the Demon Seal Alliance hunting me down. At that time, I’ll just go into hiding, and things will be fine after a few decades,” Montane Daemon said to Jared.
“Thank you, Mr. Daemon. But once I’m ashore, I might not necessarily fear him,” Jared replied with a smile.
So long as he returned to Imperial Beast City, Fayzon would never be able to gain entry with his paltry capabilities. At that time, he would have Yuven handle the man for him. After bidding Montane Daemon farewell, Jared jumped onto the divine turtle’s back with Quinley and Cloud.
Then, under his orders, the divine turtle swam toward the island. Watching as the man left on the divine turtle, Fayzon was so livid that his face flushed bright red, and he gritted his teeth audibly.
“Turn back!” he barked. The spirit ship was damaged, so it was no longer suited to continue sailing on the Night. Sea
“Mr. Leaveden, the spirit ship is damaged, so we need to repair it and set the arcane array again before it can continue sailing,” a crew member in an eight-trigram robe uttered after running over.
“Then hurry up and make the repairs!” Fayzon roared, shooting daggers at him. Such terror struck the crew member that he swiftly rushed off to do as told.
But at that precise moment, the spirit ship abruptly swayed. The dozens of divine turtles had once again propelled the spirit ship into moving forward. Immediately, everyone panicked, having absolutely no idea where the divine turtles were taking them.
With the spirit ship damaged, they could not even cast a spell to stop the divine turtles from their course of action. They could only watch helplessly as the divine turtles steered the spirit ship forward.
“Not only do these divine turtles have spirituality, but they’re also gentle in temperament. They never attack humans without provocation. Hence, it might not necessarily mean danger for us if we let them drive the spirit ship forward. Perhaps they know a spot with many magical items and are bringing us there specifically for a treasure hunt,” Montane Daemon declared.
Upon hearing that, everyone felt that it made sense. They relaxed considerably and returned to their own rooms, allowing the divine turtles to drive the spirit ship forward.
Meanwhile, Jared and the others sat on the back of the huge divine turtle.
While it was not as luxurious and comfortable as on the spirit ship, they could enjoy the wind in their faces. Gazing out at the Night Sea’s scenery was also a different experience altogether.
Jared held the Stillwind Orb in his hand while sitting on the back of the divine turtle. That way, they would not be battered by the wind no matter how fast it swam.
Staring at the Stillwind Orb in his hand, he sensed the wind aura within and the whistling sound of it. I wonder what benefits this will bring me. Can it help me comprehend wind nascence?
He had never practiced any wind-related techniques or obtained any such aura. The only thing that had to do with wind was his Wind Walk.
He grasped the Stillwind Orb tightly and tried to channel his spiritual sense into it to see whether he could absorb the wind aura within.
Alas, he still ended up failing after multiple attempts and could not absorb it at all.
“Don’t tell me it’s supposed to be consumed?”
Helplessness was written all over his face.
