Chapter 719: Spiritual wood on the boat, hidden storm

"In the next month, we will go around here again, buy some magic tools and resources, and learn the language and writing here as soon as possible to conceal our identities."

There was still plenty of time, so Chen Qingyun decided to follow the local customs and choose to take the treasure ship to Qianxing Island.

As for the language barrier, this is a small problem.

The monks have amazing memory. With the qualifications of the three of them, they can master the language and writing here in two months at most.

"Okay, then I'll listen to you."

Liu Zhilan nodded and said.

"We are new here and don't know the terrain of the sea here. With the local monks leading the way, taking the treasure ship to Qianxing Island is a good choice."

"Take a boat, good, good!"

Chen Qingluan also nodded and said.

If we continue to drive the wind and thunder boat forward and fly into a fantasy world on the way, it will not only delay the journey, but also easily face life and death crisis.

Chen Qingluan is naturally willing to accept Chen Qingyun's proposal.

Even if there are no such factors, I will listen to my brother.

In the following days, the three of them left Yuanwufang and visited the other two markets on the island, Furaofang and Honglefang, and bought some broken magic tools again.

During this period, they began to learn the language and characters here. Time passed in a blink of an eye, and more than a month had passed.

At the beginning of the second month, the three of them stayed in Honglefang temporarily.

On this day, they found a merchant here called Fuhong Chamber of Commerce and bought three boat tickets at the price of 300 spirit stones per person. They boarded the ship to Qianxing Island the next day.

As the Wanbao Conference was about to be held, it would take about two years to sail from the surrounding area to Qianxing Island. In order not to miss this opportunity, many cultivators chose to set off early.

The treasure ship that the three of them were on was almost full of cultivators, with a total of 366 people.

Chen Qingyun noticed that except for the three of them, most of them were foundation-building cultivators, with six purple mansion cultivators and one late Jindan cultivator.

The proportion of Qi-refining cultivators was very small, less than ten people.

Half of these monks are not from the local area, but from other sea areas.

As far as Chen Qingyun noticed, he could recognize that several tall and majestic monks were from the Thunder Spirit Sea.

These monks from the Thunder Spirit Sea looked majestic even if they were standing there quietly. Judging from the uniform clothing, they were obviously from a certain force in the Thunder Spirit Sea.

From the accents of the other dozen people, there were also monks from the Misty Blood Sea and the Mermaid Sea.

Chen Qingyun disguised himself as a local family monk, calling himself Lu Yuanfeng, and chatted with several purple mansion monks on the ship to find out some information.

Because of the study, Chen Qingyun's accent was no different from that of the local monks, and the other party did not notice anything at all, and would not think too much.

In this way, after a conversation, Chen Qingyun further found out some news about this Wanbao Conference and learned that this event was eye-catching in the entire Inner Sea.

This trip can be said to greatly increase your knowledge, meet all kinds of cultivators, and even encounter attacks from mermaids in the sea, which is also a local feature.

Regarding the mermaids in the sea, a local purple mansion casual cultivator had a good chat with Chen Qingyun and took the initiative to tell him.

This person is called Zhang Zhen. He looks to be in his fifties, but his actual age is already 399 years old, with a gentle face.

"I have been in this fantasy sea for more than a hundred years, and have participated in several battles against mermaids. In order to compete for territory, those mermaids often invade the fantasy sea and stir up a bloody storm. The number of cultivators who died in their hands is countless."

"Daoyou, I'm telling you secretly. I have heard that the treasure ship we are riding this time is carrying a batch of fire attribute spirit wood, fire peony wood, which is estimated to attract attacks from mermaids."

When mentioning fire peony wood, Zhang Zhen was excited, but a trace of worry flashed across his face.

"Fire peony wood."

Chen Qingyun recalled his memory and had heard of this kind of wood.

Fire peony wood grows in places where fire spirits gather, such as active volcanoes, lava swamps, and vast desert areas. It is a third-level spiritual wood and takes three hundred years to grow.

Because it contains pure fire power, it is one of the best materials for refining fire attribute magic weapons and can restrain water attribute magic weapons.

No matter how good this fire peony wood is, it is a treasure for the human race. Does the mermaid race also need fire peony wood to refine weapons?

While thinking about it, Zhang Zhen's voice sounded again, and continued to speak in a low voice.

"Yes, Fellow Daoist Chen, you know about this fire peony wood, right? It can be used to refine powerful fire-attributed magic tools, which can have a significant effect in restraining mermaids."

"I heard this news from a friend of Qingxu Sect a few days ago."

"This batch of wood will eventually be transported to Donglin Island, where Qingxu Sect's weapon refiners will refine it and make it into magic tools to deal with mermaids."

Speaking of Qingxu Sect, Zhang Zhen glanced at the distance and saw that there were Qingxu Sect cultivators there, so he took this opportunity to introduce them to Chen Qingyun.

"Although the three people over there are not wearing Qingxu Sect costumes, I estimate that they are most likely Qingxu Sect cultivators."

"Look carefully, the oldest one among them, the old man with a square face, I can't see through him, he should be a Jindan cultivator."

Chen Qingyun and the other two followed Zhang Zhen's gaze and saw three figures standing on the bow deck, and two cultivators from Fuhong Chamber of Commerce were nodding and talking.

Due to the sound isolation restriction imposed by the other party, even the Zifu monks could not eavesdrop.

Chen Qingyun had already used Bahuang's spiritual consciousness to detect these monks when he boarded the ship.

The monk with the Chinese character face that Zhang Zhen mentioned was from the Qingxu Sect, and he was the late-stage Jindan.

The remaining two are both at the peak of Zifu and are not considered weak.

One is in the late stage of Jindan, and two are at the peak of Zifu. This power is not small.

The fire peony tree was not detected by the divine consciousness. It must have used some means of shielding the divine consciousness in order to avoid the detection of unscrupulous people. This is quite unusual.

Zhang Zhen did not notice Chen Qingyun's movements, let alone expect that there were two golden elixir monks, Chen Qingyun and Liu Zhilan, on the ship.

He continued minding his own business: "On this part of our voyage, we are actually meant to protect this treasure ship. If we encounter a shark attack, we should provide appropriate assistance."

"If you think you are not strong enough, then stay on the ship and don't leave at will."

"Those sharks are active in the sea, and their strength can give them a considerable advantage. We must not enter the water easily. When the time comes, the three of you must protect yourself. Don't risk your lives by stepping out casually."

Zhang Zhen slowly said these words, kindly reminding Chen Qingyun and the others.
