Chapter 645: Sea Monster (Part 2)

After Wang Sheng's repeated reminders, Song Yan finally completely abandoned the idea of getting the map from Wang Sheng in advance and rushing into the Thousand Absolutes Land.

The two stayed up all night in Song Yan's bedroom. This time, Wang Sheng's treatment was greatly improved. Not only was there food, but it was also delicious. Many dishes were Wang Sheng's usual favorites, so it seems that Mei'er had a lot of communication with Song Yan in this regard.

They ate in the middle of the night, and during that time, Song Yan carefully admired the peony blossom concentric ghost work ball that belonged exclusively to her, fondling it and spinning it for more than half an hour. In the end, she carefully put it away, with no intention of displaying it.

Wang Sheng didn't stay long and left in the morning. Song Yan didn't try to keep him, as she knew it was impossible to keep Wang Sheng in the Song King's palace.

Fortunately, Song Yan saw him off, and apart from the personal female guards beside Song Yan, no one else knew that Wang Sheng had entered the palace. He easily pretended to be a palace guard and left the Song King's palace with Song Yan.

Wang Sheng didn't meet Song Hongde. Song Yan had been chatting with Song Hongde these days, and it seemed that Song Hongde's mouth was still very hard. Even if he regretted it in his heart, he didn't admit defeat verbally. Meeting each other would only be unpleasant, so it was better not to meet.

In the mountains outside the capital city of Song, Wang Sheng met up with Old Daoist Lingxu. Regardless of whether there were people following behind, the two controlled four flying demon beasts, took off into the air, and flew straight to the Yue Mountains.

Although the treasure map left by Zhu Xingsheng had been burned to ashes with Zhu Shaodong, as far as Wang Sheng was concerned, as long as he had seen it, it meant that he had remembered all the details, and there was no need to look at it a second time.

The series of raised leather pieces on the map representing the islands didn't start from the coastline closest to the treasure island, but from a mountain on the southeastern coast of the Yue Mountains. Starting from that mountain, they circled around, using eight islands as stepping stones, and the ninth island was where the treasure was located.

The scale on the map was inaccurate, and Wang Sheng didn't know the exact distance. But if each two islands were the cautious flying distance for the flying demon beasts, flying along the islands would probably be four to five thousand miles.

Flying all the way from the Song Kingdom to the Yue Mountains, resting several times along the way, there were no dangers or fights. They didn't encounter any enemies, and when landing, they chose places without powerful demon beasts. Three days later, they arrived at the mountain on the coast of the Yue Mountains.

That mountain was easy to identify because there was a very obvious eagle-head-like cliff on the map drawn by Zhu Xingsheng. While still in the air, Wang Sheng and the old Daoist saw the cliff from dozens of miles away and instantly determined the starting point.

After resting on the mountain for a night, the two set off early in the morning, controlling four flying demon beasts. The reason for bringing an extra one per person was to prepare for any accidents that might occur along the way, so they could have a replacement flying mount. If an accident happened at sea without this insurance, the only outcome would probably be falling into the sea and feeding the sea monsters.

This was the first time Old Daoist had seen the sea, and he seemed very excited. He was very much looking forward to the journey ahead. Wang Sheng smiled at the old Daoist's appearance, not saying anything. When the old Daoist saw the vast sea with nothing but water, he probably wouldn't be so excited.

The two were purely on an adventure, and neither was greedy for the mere treasure. They treated it as a treasure hunting game, so they weren't in a hurry to travel, enjoying the scenery along the way. Back when they were on Da Xue's back, they were all trembling, afraid of being thrown off, so how could they have been in the mood to enjoy the scenery from the air?

On the first day at sea, the old Daoist was indeed excited. Wang Sheng didn't point it out, but controlled the direction to find the island to land on.

There was no other way, Zhu Xingsheng's treasure map had an incorrect scale, so the direction naturally couldn't be accurate. It could only be said that it was roughly southeast by south or northeast by east. A slight deviation could lead to a great error. A raised piece on the treasure map represented an island, but at sea, it could be dozens or even hundreds of miles in radius, so it had to be carefully searched.

As expected, Wang Sheng felt that they had flown about four hundred miles, so he started to have the flying demon beasts fly in circles, like a fighter plane spiraling for reconnaissance. It took a full hour before Wang Sheng saw the small island and controlled the flying demon beasts to fly over.

The island wasn't big, only a few miles in radius, but it was bare with nothing on it, only some rocks. The waves constantly splashed, which was very monotonous. Not to mention powerful demon beasts, there were basically no living creatures on the island except for some marine life in the water near the shore. No fresh water and no soil were enough to sentence most animals and plants to death.

On the first day, they didn't see any fierce sea monsters on the sea, so the two flew relatively cautiously, not daring to lower their altitude. After all, the legendary two-hundred-foot-long tentacles sounded scary, so they maintained an altitude of at least one thousand meters, only searching with their eyes.

This was also the first time Old Daoist had seen the vast sea and sky merging into one, and he was truly shocked. It was completely different from the land. There were no ups and downs, no mountains and rivers, only a vast sea, empty and desolate, but the water nurtured unparalleled vitality. The contradictory feeling made Old Daoist not sleep much that night. He sat on a high rock near the sea, releasing his aura to feel the vibrant life force in the ocean, sitting for most of the night.

The next day, as they continued to fly in the direction on the map, the two saw for the first time what could be called a demon beast in the ocean.

This time, the flying altitude was a little lower, about four hundred meters. At this altitude, both Wang Sheng and the old Daoist could ensure that if there was any movement on the sea, they could quickly raise the altitude of the flying demon beasts. This altitude also made it easier to observe the creatures in the ocean.

From the back of the flying demon beast, the old Daoist clearly saw a huge fish back under the sea water. The fish back hidden under the water was more than fifty meters long just by visual estimation, almost twenty or thirty zhang long. Even from a height of four hundred meters, the old Daoist could sense the legendary level aura emanating from the huge fish.

However, this legendary realm big fish didn't stay active in front of the two for long. Suddenly, the sea surface rolled, and a more powerful aura erupted, directly chasing the super demon beasts in the Thousand Absolutes Land.

Afterward, Wang Sheng and the old Daoist saw a giant fish about twice the size of the big fish suddenly bite the big fish from under the water, swing a huge tail on the sea surface, and plunged straight into the ocean.
