Chapter 1620: Thunder in the Raging Sea
Looking at the boundless ocean, Xiao Lin was also filled with emotion. The vastness of the spiritual world was far beyond his imagination, especially this boundless ocean, whose size was simply inexhaustible, and how many high-level ferocious beasts lived in it.
There were some ferocious beasts that even Xiao Lin didn't dare to provoke at the moment.
If the spiritual world is like this, how vast and boundless will the fairy world be?
"Brother Xiao, you are looking at the vast sea without saying a word, but are you reminiscing about the past?" At some point, Xia Fu walked to Xiao Lin's side and said with a smile.
The spiritual light of the Wind-Breaking Boat enveloped the entire ship, making it immune to strong winds and free from dust. Sitting on it was like sitting on flat ground, without even the slightest bump.
After hearing this, Xiao Lin came back to his senses and smiled, "I was thinking that the vastness of the spiritual world is far beyond our imagination. Even if we are at the Tribulation Crossing stage, we can still clearly feel the vastness of the world. In comparison, how insignificant we are."
"We cultivators absorb and exhale the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and cultivate our souls and spirits. In essence, everything comes from heaven and earth. We may be like the children of heaven and earth, blessed and protected by heaven and earth, wandering in its broad bosom. It's just that most of us cultivators don't realize it."
"Will there be a day when we can break away from the embrace of heaven and earth and see the true face of this world?" Xiao Lin's heart moved, and he spoke with emotion.
"Hehe~" Hearing this, Xia Fu couldn't help but laugh: "Brother Xiao has broad ambitions. If you want to see the world clearly, doesn't it mean you have to be on par with the world? Even if you really cultivate to the level of the Holy Ancestor of the Spirit, and even reach perfection, and can ascend to the fairyland, I'm afraid you may not be able to see the world at a glance. As for whether you can reach this realm one day after ascending to the fairyland, it's beyond Xia Fu's cognition and I can't say for sure."
"What the fairy said is very true. Even if one achieves the realm of a True Immortal, to the world, he may just be a child one year older. He will still be unable to break away from dependence. Above the True Immortal, there may be a supreme being who can truly see through the universe. But at our current level, we are far from being able to do that."
"Brother Xiao is a man with lofty ambitions. One day, perhaps he will be able to see the entire world and the universe and take in all the scenery." Xia Fu suddenly said.
"Fairy, you are too kind. The road to immortality is so bumpy and difficult. We, the immortal cultivators, are just following the path of our predecessors and moving forward with heavy burdens. To be honest, I have never thought about how far I can go on this immortal path. As the saying goes, the road ahead is long and the journey is endless. I live in the present and proceed steadily and properly."
"What a long and uncertain road ahead. Live in the present and proceed steadily and properly... Brother Xiao, you are so eager to return to your hometown. Could it be that you are tied down by your Taoist partner?" Xia Fu on the side suddenly asked. When she asked this question, a blush appeared on her pretty face.
Xiao Lin, who was looking at the vast sea, did not notice the change. Instead, he nodded slightly and said, "My Taoist companion was in the Northern Sky Region of the Holy Moon Continent. When I left, her life or death was unknown. Now, more than three thousand years have passed. I believe she has been sad all the time. It is my fault."
"It is a blessing for my sister-in-law to have a confidante like Brother Xiao. The journey to immortality is too lonely. It is incomparable to have someone to accompany you. Xia Fu really envies Brother Xiao and sister-in-law." Xia Fu's face regained its calmness and she spoke, with a flash of melancholy in her eyes.
"The past is like the wind, let's not talk about it. The most important thing now is to find a way back to the Holy Moon Continent as soon as possible." Xiao Lin sighed slightly and spoke.
After a moment's silence, Xiao Lin's expression suddenly froze. He saw a gray light appearing between the clouds in the distance, almost covering the entire sea of sky. When he saw the gray light, Xiao Lin couldn't help but shivering, as if a gust of wind passed directly through his body.
"Oh no, it's the bone-penetrating wind. Brother Xiao, quickly use your spiritual power to protect your whole body. I will open the spirit boat's shield right away." Xia Fu's pretty face also changed. After she finished speaking, she pinched the spiritual seal with both hands and shot out pure magic power towards the spirit boat. With the infusion of magic power, the Wind-Breaking Boat immediately flashed a layer of green swirling light, starting from the bow, in a spiral shape, and wrapped up the Wind-Breaking Boat in the blink of an eye.
Just as he had done all this, the void in front of him suddenly became dark and a shrill ghost cry rang in his ears. When the sound reached his ears, Xiao Lin actually felt his soul tremble, as if it was about to rush out of his body.
This shock was no small matter. Xiao Lin hurriedly calmed his mind. The spiritual power in his sea of consciousness flowed out like a trickle and turned into a pale white light shield that covered his entire body.
After doing all this, the feeling of his soul being torn apart gradually disappeared, but his face still contained a look of horror.
"This bone-penetrating wind is so powerful that not only can it blow away the soul and make the cultivator's bones disappear, but even the sound of the wind has the power to take away the soul."
"This is the power of the heaven and earth. This kind of bone-penetrating wind will be very troublesome even for a cultivator at the Mahayana stage. He may be able to resist it for a short period of time, but you must know that the bone-penetrating wind in this sea is endless. The deeper you go, the more powerful it will be. In the end, you will not be able to escape death."
Xiao Lin also showed an expression of deep agreement. His combat power was comparable to that of the Holy Ancestor Lingzun, but facing such a position in heaven and earth, he was also in awe. This made him recall the time when he broke through the void, banished the Demon Soul and Queen Futu, and he was deeply trapped in the cosmic void, encountering waves of powerful energy in the universe. Now, thinking about it, he was too reckless. If it weren't for Lord "Mu" in the Lingmu Space, who absorbed those cosmic energies, he would have died at this moment.
The Wind-Breaking Boat was indeed made of unmelting ice and was able to resist the attack of the bone-penetrating wind. Xiao Lin could not help but marvel at the wonders of creation.
After more than half an hour, the front was still gray and it was unknown when we would be able to cross this sea.
Xiao Lin stood on the deck, looking at the gray and bone-penetrating wind around him, and felt a chill in his heart. Perhaps they were flying towards the core of the bone-penetrating wind. The bone-penetrating wind was becoming more and more dense. The shrill ghost cries above the void turned into waves of sound, constantly impacting the spiritual light shield outside the Wind-Breaking Boat.
The spiritual shield flickered and swayed, just like a candle in a strong wind, and it seemed that it could go out at any time.
Xiao Lin did not dare to take it lightly. The blood transformed by the Holy Scale Burning Heaven Art slowly surged in his body, and the scriptures of the sixth level of the Bu Tian Sutra were also flowing in his sea of consciousness. With his current spiritual power, he could not say that he was the best in the spiritual world, but at least he had reached an outstanding level.
"Click~~~"
Suddenly, a sound of shattering clearly entered the ears of the two. Xiao Lin was slightly stunned, but Xia Fu beside him changed his expression drastically.
At this time, Xiao Lin also saw at a glance that there was a tiny crack on each side of the side of the Wind-Breaking Boat, which made his heart sink instantly.
In such a harsh environment, if the side of the ship breaks, it will soon disintegrate. And once the Wind-Breaking Boat breaks, the two will be completely exposed to the bone-penetrating wind. Even if they have extraordinary magical powers, they cannot withstand the power of heaven and earth.
"Oh no." Xia Fu exclaimed, then sat cross-legged on the deck and began to practice spiritual mantras. As the mantras were practiced, all the pure magic power in her body was injected into the spirit boat. It was obvious that she was using her own magic power to strengthen the magic formation of the Wind-Breaking Boat, so as to avoid the fate of the boat being destroyed and people dying.
Unfortunately, she still underestimated the power of the bone-penetrating wind. After only a cup of tea, the clear sound of shattering rang in their ears again.
Xiao Lin's face condensed, his hands flew, and he pinched the spiritual seal with his hands. The powerful magic power in his body surged out from his palms and hit the spirit boat in the air. After stabilizing the magic formation of the spirit boat, Xiao Lin slapped his palms directly on the deck.
I saw a ray of green light extending from between his palms. As the light spread, it gradually covered the entire deck. Immediately, a layer of fine ice crystals began to condense on the deck. The green light continued to extend towards the side of the ship, and soon enveloped the entire windbreaker.
"Crash~~" When the green spiritual light covered the Broken Wind Boat, it suddenly burned and turned into a blazing ice flame, instantly freezing the cracks on both sides of the ship's side.
Xia Fu glanced at Xiao Lin at this time, and there was no trace of surprise in her eyes. Instead, there was a hint of smile.
But after Xiao Lin finished all this, she suddenly showed a surprised expression on her face and said, "Brother Xiao actually practiced ice-attributed skills, and also practiced the cold flame magic? That's great. With the blessing of Brother Xiao's magic power, the Wind-Breaking Boat can be said to be even more powerful. In this way, there will be no problem in crossing this area covered by the bone-penetrating wind."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Lin just nodded but did not answer. At this moment, he was concentrating all his attention on mobilizing his magic power and the Jade Sceptre Ice Flame, integrating them into the magic formation of the Broken Wind Boat to make it more powerful in defense.
Although this could temporarily prevent the boat from being destroyed and people from dying, it would also consume a lot of his magic power. If the area covered by the bone-penetrating wind was too wide, his magic power might not be enough to support it.
As if seeing Xiao Lin's concerns, Xia Fu said, "Brother Xiao, don't worry. We have already walked nearly half of the area covered by the bone-penetrating wind. Xia Fu was a little careless before. I will install some fifth-level fairy stones with ice attributes in the magic circle. It will be enough to resist the bone-penetrating wind."
After saying that, Xia Fu took out a few fifth-order fairy stones from the star ring with some pain in his heart, and pressed them on the magic circle of the Broken Wind Boat.
With the installation of the fifth-level fairy stone, the magic circle immediately became brighter, and the light shield outside suddenly thickened several times.
Seeing this, Xiao Lin was speechless. If he had known that Xia Fu was reluctant to use the fifth-level fairy stone, he would have used it himself, making him even more worried.
With the blessing of this mid-level fairy stone, the defense of the Wind-Breaking Boat was more than doubled, and the bone-penetrating wind from outside had basically no effect on it.
Xiao Lin also gathered his magic power and sat cross-legged on the deck, slowly meditating to recover the magic power he had just lost while watching the changing scenery outside.
Perhaps he had gradually entered the core of the bone-penetrating wind. The surroundings were so dark that he could hardly see anything. The only sounds he could hear were bursts of ghostly cries and the vibration of wind hitting the shield.
At this moment, Xiao Lin seemed to feel his own insignificance. Even though he had become a top-level cultivator in the spiritual world, he still felt his own insignificance facing such vast divine power.
As they were expressing their feelings, a loud noise suddenly came from the front. The next moment, Xiao Lin and Xia Fu simultaneously saw a scene that made their faces change drastically.
Suddenly, in the endless, dark distance, a ball of lightning flashed. As the lightning gathered, the void shattered with a loud bang, and then an extremely huge head flew out from it. The head was covered with light golden scales and had three strange horns. On the three horns, each of them gathered a ball of lightning, one purple, one green and one golden.
The lightning that just appeared was green lightning. At first glance, the head seemed to be a hundred miles in size. The key point was that only half of the head was exposed.
Xia Fu immediately used his spiritual skills, and the speeding wind-breaking boat suddenly stopped.
In the distance, a pair of pale golden eyes gathered their divine light and immediately looked at Xiao Lin and Xia Fu. The eyes just glanced at them slightly, revealing a somewhat lazy expression, and then shifted direction.
"Lei Long, you stole the immortal fruit, which is an unforgivable crime. If you are willing to go back with us and become the immortal's guardian mount, we can spare your life. Otherwise, I will chop off your immortal soul and let you fly away." At this time, a majestic voice with a bit of metallic texture exploded in the void, and then a sword light lit up from the void and chopped off the huge head.
On the huge head, the pair of eyes revealed a bit of impatience, and the three balls of lightning on the three horns on the head suddenly blasted out at the same time accompanied by a roar. The three lightning beams covered the entire sky in an instant. The sea surface that was originally shrouded by the bone-penetrating wind suddenly became calm, and the bone-penetrating wind also disappeared without a trace.
On the contrary, above the void, the three-colored lightning covered an unknown amount of miles. In any case, wherever Xiao Lin and Xia Fu looked, they were all covered by the three-colored lightning.
Seeing that the shocking sword light had already reached the huge head, the sharp sword light illuminated the entire world. At this time, Xiao Lin also saw the huge crack of unknown length in the void.
At this time, the three-colored lightning in the void suddenly gathered together and turned into a three-colored little dragon, which rushed towards the sword light at an extremely astonishing speed.
The two eyes on the huge head glanced at Xiao Lin and Xia Fu again at this time, as if it suddenly remembered something. Its big mouth suddenly opened and spit out a three-colored light, which directly hit the sword light. The sword light was immediately wrapped by the three-colored light, and accompanied by a roar, it directly tore through the void and disappeared without a trace.
"Hmph~~" A muffled groan came from the void, and the huge head swayed slightly, directly breaking through the void and disappearing.
Above the void, the terrifying crack of unknown size began to slowly heal and soon returned to normal.
Xiao Lin and Xia Fu looked at the calm sea. The scene that just happened seemed like a dream. They were stunned for a moment.
