Chapter 1252: Debt Again
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Three days later.
Deep in a certain sea, in a trench, there was a black turtle sh.e.l.l here, covering half of the trench.
At this moment, spiritual fire was raging in the trench.
Not only was Han Fei refining a puppet, but he was also doing it in a different way. When he refined Overlord, it was just because of a random idea from Mu Jia’er.
This time, he imagined what would happen if he carved an array on Yu Wendao’s body as a tattoo.
The old turtle, with Gui Sanqing’s body, standing not far away with his hands behind his back, slightly nodded. “I didn’t expect you to be so good at arrays at such a young age. Although this array technique can’t give Yu Wendao the combat power of a Venerable, it can increase his strength by 20%.”
Han Fei grinned. “I can engrave arrays on your turtle sh.e.l.l too. Do you want me to do it for you?”
The old turtle said disdainfully, “You have no idea how powerful the turtle sh.e.l.l is. The turtle sh.e.l.l is an array in the first place. This array can prevent vitality from leaking and can withstand all techniques. How can a few random arrays be comparable to it?”
Han Fei frowned. Is that true?
He said in disdain, “Doesn’t that mean that all creatures with sh.e.l.ls are born with arrays?”
The old turtle said leisurely, “You can’t say that this is wrong. For example, crabs, do you think their carapace is not an array? Every creature in this world is unique. Their carapace has infinite effects and has grown like this through the acc.u.mulation of countless years. Who knows if there is any array in it?”
Hearing what the old turtle said, Han Fei, who was carving arrays, was taken aback. What the old turtle said seemed to make sense. He couldn’t help but think of the beautiful golden-ratio lines on the parakeet that Li Luoluo dug out in the Ideal Palace.
After about an hour, a new Yu Wendao appeared. However, it was different from the previous Yu Wendao who pretended to be a sage.
Instead, it was a bald guy with tattoos all over his body. Han Fei had even engraved arrays on his forehead.
The old turtle said, “You’re too particular about balance. There are too many defensive arrays and spirit gathering arrays, but too few speed ones. However, this concealment array is not bad. Of course, it’s ineffective against Venerables, but it’s still effective on the Dao Seeking realm.”
Han Fei said indifferently, “A puppet needs to be comprehensive. How can I count on it to deal with a Half-Venerable powerhouse? Once I lose the ability of thinking, even if I split a wisp of my soul, compared to a Half-Venerable powerhouse, my reaction should not be fast enough. Therefore, its purpose is only to deal with creatures below the peak of the Dao Seeking realm.”
Buzz ~ Buzz ~
Suddenly, the black sh.e.l.l phantom above Han Fei’s head began to fade.
The old turtle said, “The effect of the Turtle Sh.e.l.l Sky Sealing Technique is limited. Someone will find this place soon, right?”
As an Emperor-level powerhouse, he certainly could think of the existence of the Venerable Token. Now it was up to Han Fei to explain.
Han Fei said, “Don’t mind it too much.”
Then, Han Fei secretly activated the Venerable Token. Instantly, a voice sounded in Han Fei’s mind, “Stay where you are.”
More than an hour later.
Han Fei wondered, “Why do they come so slow?”
The old turtle said, “It’s not that they’re slow, but that they have to arrive here without being detected.”
Sure enough, after waiting for another half an hour, Han Fei suddenly found that a large amount of vine gra.s.s appeared in the trench. As the vine gra.s.s increased, a red flower bud grew out.
When the flower bud bloomed, Han Fei saw Jing’er walk out of it.
Jing’er immediately looked at the old turtle. After all, at her level, she knew that the old turtle was not a puppet but a real sea demon.
But Jing’er didn’t pay much attention. The old turtle seemed to have known that she was coming, so she frowned. “Why did you come to this d.a.m.n place? It’s not close to Water-Wood World at all.”
After complaining for a while, Jing’er looked at the old turtle and asked, “Who is this?”
Han Fei said, “This is Gu Sanqing. He has already been instigated to defect by me. Now he follows me.”
The old turtle rolled his eyes, put his hands behind his back, and thought to himself, I follow you? If it weren’t for you, how could I have ended up like this?
Considering that Han Fei’s ident.i.ty was different and his methods were complicated, Jing’er didn’t think too much about it. She simply pushed and a soundproof array appeared, blocking the old turtle outside.
The first thing Jing’er said was, “Tell me who your junior sister is first.”
Han Fei blinked. “Don’t you know?”
Looking at Jing’er’s curious eyes, Han Fei knew that something must have happened. He said leisurely, “Well… I can’t tell you.”
Jing’er took a deep look at Han Fei. “Really? The queen said the same as you. What are you up to? You’ve only met the queen once, and I heard everything you two talked about.”
Han Fei smiled casually. “This is a secret. However, I think you will know it in the near future.”
Jing’er grunted for a few seconds before giving up asking. Then, she put on a serious expression. “It turns out that you can really become a sea demon. I don’t know how you do it. Did you cultivate some special technique to have the ability to become a sea demon? Can you change back?”
Han Fei grinned and his body quickly changed. The Deceit Technique changed his realm and strength.
At this moment, Han Fei became a junior Sea Spirit. “Can you tell?”
Jing’er frowned. “It seems… I can’t tell that this technique has completely hidden your true strength.”
Han Fei said with a smile, “It’s not enough. My appearance, strength, and aura can all be changed, but my law enforcement ability can’t be changed, nor can my combat skills. It’s easy to solve combat skills, but the key is the law enforcement ability… This Fish Dragon King’s law enforcement ability is Near at Hand Technique.”
While talking, Han Fei looked at Jing’er with a smile, and Jing’er bared her teeth slightly.
Jing’er glared at Han Fei. “So, you’re coveting my Near at Hand Technique? But this does require the ability of s.p.a.ce comprehension.”
Han Fei frowned and said, “I can’t learn it?”
In his heart, the old turtle said, “Not necessarily. As long as this little girl is willing, she can still teach you.”
Han Fei asked, “Do you know it too?”
The old turtle said, “Of course. But I can’t teach you. You’ll master it after you reach the king level. This is because s.p.a.ce is right there. As a king, you can see through such a shallow power at a glance.”
Han Fei: “Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”
The old turtle said, “If you want to go to the Royal City, of course I’ll tell you, or you’ll be exposed. But are you sure you want to go to the Royal City with your current strength? You know, there is a king there. Once you’re exposed, we’ll be doomed.”
Han Fei immediately understood what the old turtle meant. This was probably why he didn’t tell him before. However, he wasn’t a fool. Even if he really went to such a dangerous place, he definitely had to be absolutely sure.
Jing’er pouted. “That’s a bargain. What else? The queen asked where you would be in the future and how to contact you.”
Han Fei licked the corner of his mouth and said, “Don’t worry about me for the time being. I’m going to find a place. Did the queen give you any hint?”
Jing’er said suspiciously again, “I really wonder if you have secretly met the queen.”
With that said, Jing’er threw a fish skin map to Han Fei and said, “The queen gave it to you. These are all the forbidden places in the Water-Wood World. You know how precious this sea map is, right? The queen said that if she gave you this map, you would owe him another 100 Dao Seeking powerhouses and 10 Venerables.”
“Pfft!”
Han Fei couldn’t help but exclaim, “That’s a robbery!”
Han Fei couldn’t have felt worse. I’m only a junior Explorer! Do you think it’s easy for me?
Seeing Han Fei standing there dumbfounded, Jing’er snorted and said, “Don’t be ignorant. Do you know how long the queen has been drawing this map? Tens of thousands of years!”
Jing’er said excitedly, “How difficult it is for the queen! She can’t go to sea and is restrained by the two big Royal Cities. Do you know how the secret places, forbidden places, and forbidden areas on this map were discovered? Those places are all explored by people. For this reason, more than 10 Venerables have died in Water-Wood World!”
Han Fei couldn’t help but feel refreshed. Had Queen Life been searching for the Water Immortal for more than ten thousand years?
He immediately opened the sea chart and took a look. Immediately, a vast sea chart appeared. Han Fei’s pupils were constricted. This map has included the boundaries that the Water-Wood World could reach?
The words “8,200,000 miles” were written on it. It was the distance between the north and south of the Water-Wood World. Along the way, there were thousands of points marked out.
It was needless to say that every point here was probably a secret realm, and this was only a small part of the sea. And in the eyes of a king, there might be many ordinary secret realms that she didn’t necessarily go to record.
8,200,000 kilometers to the side, there were the words “Turbulent Sea” written there.
Han Fei couldn’t help looking at Jing’er. “Jing’er, what is the Turbulent Sea?”
Jing’er said, “I knew you would ask. The so-called Turbulent Sea can also be understood as the turbulent sea area or the Wall of Death, a manifestation of the Infinite Ocean. However, its range is not very large. It’s usually hundreds of thousands of miles. It’s said that it’s created by the kings for the purpose of severing the sea into 36 pieces. Even Venerables are very likely to die if they enter.”
Han Fei asked in surprise, “Why? Isn’t it good to interconnect?”
Jing’er looked at Han Fei as if he were an idiot. “Are you an idiot? Different Heavenly Palaces have different ways of defending against enemies. If they interconnect, will the Sea Demon Royal Cities also interconnect? Then it will be a mess. What if multiple royal cities join forces to attack a single domain?”
Han Fei frowned. That did make sense.
However, the kings had joined forces to create a place that even a Venerable might die in. How dangerous was that place? Was the Infinite Ocean so dangerous?
Seeming to see through Han Fei’s thoughts, Jing’er said, “In a sense, this turbulent sea is more dangerous than the Infinite Ocean. The Infinite Ocean is big and distant, yet this turbulent sea is short and dangerous.. They’re different.”
