Chapter 251: Arrival At East Parting Continent…Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Yang Dingtian couldn"t help but be astonished by how luxurious his cabin in the commander wars.h.i.+p was. This was a s.h.i.+p that was designed to save as much s.p.a.ce as possible. On the s.h.i.+p, dozens of people would squeeze inside a cabin. Meanwhile, this room was actually 40 to 50 square meters big.
It had soft carpets, golden utensils, a comfortable big-sized bed, sandalwood furniture, and an enormous bathing bucket. Everything that one needed was there in the room.
When Yang Dingtian walked in, four delicate and charming maids welcomed him at the doorway. Inside, there was also an even more beautiful girl who was modulating the fragrant tea.
The four ladies wore a red silk dress. However, the lady inside the room wore a tight-fit shark diving suit.
“All of you can head out. I will look for you when I need help.” Yang Dingtian commented.
Immediately, the beautiful girl who was wearing the diving suit spoke out, “Haven"t you all heard it? All of you can leave the room.”
“Yes.” The four ladies immediately stood up and left.
Meanwhile, the girl who was wearing the diving suit stayed within the room. She had already modulated the fragrant tea and poured it into a cup. After which, she lifted it and went forward, “Master, have some tea.”
Yang Dingtian couldn"t help but be slightly startled when he heard how she addressed him.
“I"m madam"s adopted daughter.” The girl continued, “However, you will definitely be unhappy if I"m to address you as my G.o.dfather. Therefore, I decided to address you as Master.”
Yang Dingtian nodded his head indifferently and drank the cup of fragrant tea that was on her hand.
Subsequently, she helped Yang Dingtian to take a shower. After which, he enjoyed a fine meal before he started reading books under the lights.
“Alright, you can go out as well. I will be taking a rest after reading the book.” Yang Dingtian commented.
“Yes, Master.” The young lady replied.
Yang Dingtian spent most of the time reading inside the cabin for the following days. For the remaining time, he would head over to the deck to look at the ocean and scenery.
He would need to sail for over 20 days since he was close to ten thousand miles away from the East Parting Continent.
The journey by the sea was undoubtedly dull and tedious. Yang Dingtian had long grown tired of watching the scenery by the deck. Furthermore, all the sailors and martial artists on the s.h.i.+p had maintained a certain distance away from Yang Dingtian. As for the three Martial Supreme cla.s.s experts who were protecting Yang Dingtian, Yang Dingtian wanted to stay a distance away from them.
Therefore, for the time being, Yang Dingtian practically had no one to talk to.
Although the young lady that was wearing a diving suit was Qin Mengli"s adopted daughter, Yang Dingtian did not interact with her too excessively. On the contrary, he spent most of the time being together with the Foxman Race girl, Ji"er As.h.i.+na. The reason was that Yang Dingtian wanted to learn a few more Half-Human Race languages, and it just so happened that this Foxman race girl knew close to ten kinds of Half-Human Race languages.
Of course, the main reason wasn"t that Yang Dingtian wanted to learn their languages. Rather, it was so he could use it as an indirect approach to inquire about the Burial Land news.
With a cautious mind, Yang Dingtian didn"t mention the Burial Land on his own initiatives. Instead, he made Ji"er herself to talk about the matters of Burial Land. Subsequently, Yang Dingtian would pretend to be curious about it and place the core of the chat on the Burial Land.
Naturally, Ji"er had a lot of knowledge about the Burial Land, at least a lot more than his teacher, Dongfang Niemie. Ji"er had also spoken about the history behind the area as well as the Half-Human Race great war situation that was close to 100 years ago.
Unfortunately, Yang Dingtian was still unable to get hold of that crucial information he was looking for. It was especially so for that half blazing and half ice-cold mountain. Ji"er didn"t even mention it. It wasn"t because she had purposely omitted it out. Instead, she honestly had no idea about it.
Immediately, Yang Dingtian felt strange. The half blazing and half ice-cold mountain was so mysterious. Why his teacher and even Ji"er who was from the Foxman Race hadn"t seen it before?
Could this strange mountain really not exist?
For the following few days, Yang Dingtian had simply loosened his mental state since he was unable to find out more from Ji"er. He no longer learned the Half-Human Race language. Instead, he dragged that girl that was wearing the diving suit to join them in playing cards and fight the landlord.
This way, the time pa.s.ses by very quickly.
Very quickly, half a month had gone by.
There was basically no incident for this half month. However, there was a matter that seemed somewhat strange, and that was when Yang Dingtian slept, there would always be some dreamland coming over to bother him. However, when he woke up, he wouldn"t have a clear memory of it, and he felt that it was somewhat related to the Mystic Flame.
Furthermore, he was basically getting a similar dream every night.
Subsequently, Yang Dingtian felt that this was because Yang Dingtian had attached too much importance in the journey to find the Mystic Flame. Therefore, he would dream of something related to the Mystic Flame during the night.
Qin Duancang had never appeared again ever since Yang Dingtian had boarded the s.h.i.+p. And finally, he had reappeared before Yang Dingtian once again now.
“Teacher Shen, we would reach the East Parting Continent in about half a day. You can go ahead and prepare to alight the s.h.i.+p.” Qin Duancang continued, “Although at the extremity of the East Parting Continent was several thousand miles of desert, and there wouldn"t be any Half-Human Race appearing, our s.h.i.+ps would not be able to approach the East Parting Continent just in case. We will stop our s.h.i.+ps when we are dozens of miles away from it. When the time comes, the few of you would have to dive down the ocean and swim towards the land.”
Yang Dingtian replied, “Sure, it"s not an issue.”
“Thank you, Teacher Shen, for your understanding.” Qin Duancang continued. “Our s.h.i.+ps would cruise around the surroundings, and we would use the reporting bird to communicate with each other. If you come across any dangerous situation, our army would immediately come ash.o.r.e.”
“Many thanks.” Yang Dingtian thanked.
Four hours later, the sky had turned dark as well.
Currently, they were about 50 miles away from the East Parting Continent. Yang Dingtian, Ji"er As.h.i.+na and three of the Martial Supreme bodyguards were about to alight from the s.h.i.+p and swim towards the East Parting Continent while taking advantage of the night.
Although they were still 50 miles away, this didn"t pose an issue to Yang Dingtian and much less of a problem to the three Martial Supreme experts.
However, Ji"er was still young, and her cultivation was still weak. Therefore, she needed Yang Dingtian to carry her and swim ash.o.r.e.
After diving down the ocean, the first thing Yang Dingtian felt was that the seawater was extremely hot. Correct, the seawater here was actually hot.
Regardless of whether it was the Earth or Primal Chaos Continent, the seawater would never turn hot due to hot weather because the surface area of the ocean was simply too big. However, the seawater here was actually burning. Yang Dingtian estimated that the water was about 40 to 50 degrees. It was no surprise that he could no longer see living creatures around.
Furthermore, as they drew closer to the East Parting Continent, the seawater temperature grew higher as well. Ultimately, it had unexpectedly reached 70 to 80 degrees.
But even so, Yang Dingtian came ash.o.r.e on an uninhabited beach that held no signs of a living being as he arrived at the East Parting Continent an hour later.
This was the East Parting Continent. This was a forbidden region for humans.
With just a quick glance, Yang Dingtian could see that the place was covered by a limitless red desert.
Even though it was night time, the desert still showed a portion of red light. And no surprise, the sand here was scalding hot.
