Chapter 343: Reaching Blue Moon Island

Translator: Mercurial_ Editor: DarkGem

Between the blue sea and the sky, above the boundless ocean, a large creature resembling a walrus and covered in scales from its head to foot was walking into the horizon.

This enormous creature was much larger compared to a walrus, with a stature of more than tens of meters, but only the sea beasts without any broadened horizons would dare to attack this enormous beast.

On the wide back of this devil elephant, there were a few people sitting at this instant.

The person controlling the devil elephant was Suo Lei who had represented Hall Master Bu Jie three days ago. Behind him stood Li Yunmu, Zheng Quan as well as the innately formidable Pan Shan.

On this year's Flux Expert Day, the three of them were the ones who had obtained the qualifications to become inner disciples of Blue Moon Island.

Behind Li Yunmu and the other inner disciples, there were five other challengers who had qualified to become outer disciple. Thus, altogether there were nine people moving towards Blue Moon Main Island at this moment.

North Blue of the Origin World was extremely large, so even if Blue Moon Island and Azure Dragon Island were extremely close, the distance between them was more than a thousand kilometers.

This was the group's first time setting out into the sea, and it was almost impossible that they would reach their destination before more than ten days passed.

As for why they couldn't use the transfer channel to reach Blue Moon Island, it was because that place served as the core defence of the area. Due to that, direct teleportion from the small islands under Blue Moon Island's control wasn't permitted.

There were only one-sided teleport channels from Blue Moon Island to other islands. While if someone wanted to go the other way around, then apart from obtaining permission, they could only travel through the ocean.

That day was already the ninth day. According to Suo Lei's conjuncture, Blue Moon Island shouldn't be far. This time's ocean travel went without any hitch, with them just drifting along with the wind. Thus, it appeared that the time taken to reach Blue Moon Island was much less compared to his imagination.

And sure enough, as they got closer to Blue Moon Island, Li Yunmu's group saw another black dots in the horizon.

As they got into the vicinity of those black dots of several nautical miles, they could clearly make out what creatures they were. They brought squads from other islands.

They were riding on several hundred meter huge ships, but there were also people like Suo Lei who were driving large sea beasts. All these squads were rushing towards Blue Moon Island from all directions.

"Elder Brother Lei, why didn't our hall master create a similar ship with many decks?"

Although Pan Shan's body constitution was innately formidable, he was just a pure child born in a fishermen family. At this moment, when Pan Shan saw the enormous ships rushing from behind them, he couldn't hide the envy in his eyes.

The beast which they were riding couldn't be compared to those several hundred meter long ships which every islander of the Origin World longed for.

North Blue of the Origin World wasn't like the small oceans of Earth.

Most of the people setting out from the subsidiary islands mainly relied upon large sea beasts they've nurtured themselves. This was the main means of transportation for the residents of North Blue.

Then what about ships?

One shouldn't even dream about them. The hundred meter long ships built on Earth wouldn't get far in the turbulent waters of North Blue. Those which could travel long distances were all at least three hundred meters long. Moreover, there wasn't enough wood to create such large ships.

According to what Li Yunmu had learned, there were brass tree, iron pistil tree, and floating raven tree in the vicinity, who had successfully attained the criteria. Azure Dragon Island, though, had none of the above.

And sure enough, Suo Lei sighed. "It is difficult. Our Azure Dragon Island doesn't have any good wood; otherwise, our economy wouldn't be ranked below three hundred."

Without any good wood to create large ships, they had no means to travel through with ease through the ocean. This then led to their economy lagging behind.

Pan Shan, who was a teenager born in a small family, wasn't intelligent enough to do such simple analysis and only had his brain filled with strength.

Soon, the several large ships rushed up from behind and overtook the large sea beasts used by people like Suo Lei, gradually disappearing from view as they got farther and farther away.

The ships were much faster compared to large sea beasts. The fast speed of these enormous ships with hanging sails couldn't be explained according to Earth's logic.

After all, the winds of this world were truly frightening. Those who blew at ocean were extremely turbulent. The so-called grade twelve winds of Earth were considered as the weakest level here, similar to a sea breeze.

"Hey, so it's like this. It would be great if our Azure Dragon Island also had a large amount of floating raven trees."

During the several days at sea, while going with the sea breeze, everyone had endured quite a bit of suffering.

While sitting at the back of the large sea beast, they had to make sure that their bodies were always in equilibrium. Not only that, they also couldn't lie down and take nap or make fire and cook food. Most of the ordinary people couldn't endure these sort of hardships.

Even the two other descenders at Zheng Quan's side found it unbearable. But fortunately, even if they were proud children of heavens before descending, their strength and foundations were a true deal.

They could be considered as the most powerful rising stars of their world, thus in the end they were able to persevere.

This sort of circumstances persisted for two more days, until at the dawn of the twelfth day, an enormous shadow appeared in the horizon.

"It's Blue Moon Island, we have finally arrived."

At this instant, Suo Lei breathed a sigh of relief. He wished to immediately report the matter of his master Bu Jie's assassination. If it was not for Flux Expert Day, he wouldn't have waited for so long and would've have come immediately.

Although they saw the shadow of Blue Moon Island, it still took them a whole afternoon to step foot onto the island.

This was the first time that LiYunmu made contact with a higher level administrative power after descending.

"Brother Li, after entering the island, it would be better if we stuck together and looked out after each other."

During the journey, Zheng Quan, the other descender had tried many times to rope in Li Yunmu.

However this pitiful person didn't know that Li Yunmu was also a descender, because while challenging Suo Lei, Li Yunmu had only relied upon his powerful body.

Regardless of whether it was Zheng Quan or Wang Yan or Luo Honghua, all three of them viewed Li Yunmu as a native from another region of the Origin World.

Perhaps after experiencing the strength of natives, Zheng Quan's party weren't feeling excited about entering the sect of Blue Moon Island.

Therefore, they greatly desired that Li Yunmu, this formidable native, would join their side.
