Chapter 3210: The Great Whirlpool, Contaminated Beings
As expected, Lu Xichuan arranged the No. 1 room for Lin Moyu, which was the best room on the entire warship.
After receiving the message from Lu Lian, Lu Xichuan had emptied the No. 1 room and kept it prepared for Lin Moyu.
After arriving at the room, Lu Xichuan didnât leave. He took the initiative to make tea for Lin Moyu while explaining some matters about this journey.
Lu Xichuan said, "Mr. Lin should know that our Chamber of Commerce has four Hurricane Warships, numbered one to four."
"No. 1 travels between the Eastern and Southern Continents, No. 2 between the Eastern and Northern Continents, No. 3 between the Eastern and Western Continents, and No. 4 travels along the Eastern, Northern, Western, and Southern Continents."
"Do you find anything strange about the routes of these four warships?"
Lin Moyu drank the tea Lu Xichuan had personally brewed, "Indeed, itâs strange. There are no warships traveling between the Western-Southern and Western-Northern Continents."
Logically, the four warships should travel between two continents each, connecting with each other to form a cycle. But now, there were no warships traveling to and from the Western-Southern and Western-Northern Continents.
The Western Continent was essentially isolated. Especially if one wanted to go from the Western Continent to the Northern Continent, they could only take the No. 4 warship, going through the Southern and Eastern Continents before entering the Northern Continent, making a huge detour.
In that case, it would be faster to fly from the Western Continent to the Northern Continent by oneself.
Generally speaking, as long as one was at the fourth-level Dao Venerable realm and was careful, they could arrive safely.
Lu Xichuan explained, "Initially, there was indeed a warship traveling between each pair of continents."
"Later, some things happened, and it changed to the current arrangement."
Lin Moyu showed a hint of curiosity, "Iâd like to hear the details."
With nothing else to do, Lin Moyu was willing to listen to Lu Xichuanâs gossip.
Lu Xichuan said, "At that time, the humans of the Southern Continent, the Buddhists of the Western Continent, and the beast races of the Northern Continent had some conflicts, so they engaged in a great battle on the Realm Sea."
"This battle lasted for many years, and many sea race beings in the Realm Sea were affected and died unjustly."
"Later, the King of the Realm Sea intervened forcefully, killing many people from the three races, finally ending the battle."
"From then on, the three races had some grudges against each other."
"At that time, the sea race was very powerful and demanded compensation from the three races. On the human side, the Three Ancestors came forward and mediated, paying some compensation."
"On the beast race side, the Beast Emperor came forward and also resolved the matter."
"Only the Buddhist side refused to admit any fault. Instead, they said the sea race had killed their people and demanded compensation from the sea race."
"Guess what happened then?"
Lin Moyu said, "Given the King of the Realm Seaâs temperament, he probably invaded the Buddhist territory."
Lu Xichuan smiled and flattered, "Mr. Lin is correct. At that time, the King of the Realm Sea indeed led the sea race forces to invade, slaughtering several Buddha Lands, beating the Buddhist clan until they didnât dare make a sound."
"In the end, the Buddhist clan still paid compensation, but the King of the Realm Sea also declared that the Buddhist clan was not allowed to enter the Realm Sea in the future."
"But later, the Three Ancestors went to see the King of the Realm Sea, and after discussion, this statement was changed to âthe Buddhist clan is not allowed to enter the Realm Sea on their own.â"
"From then on, if the Buddhist clan wanted to enter the Realm Sea, they could only take our Hurricane Warships."
"However, the Beast Emperor wouldnât allow the Western Continentâs Buddhist clan to come directly to the Northern Continent, so there was no choice but to stop the warships traveling between the Western and Northern Continents."
"Since then, if the Buddhist clan wants to go to the Northern Continent, they can only take the No. 3 Hurricane Warship and transfer through the Eastern Continent. Or they can take the No. 4 Hurricane Warship and go around through the Southern Continent."
Lin Moyu understood. The Three Ancestors wanted the Buddhists from the Western Continent to come out because there was profit to be made. He wanted to make money, so he couldnât stop the travel.
But he also knew the Beast Emperorâs temperament, so what was really stopped was the route between the Western and Northern Continents.
The Buddhist clanâs disadvantage was mainly that they didnât have a Great Dao realm powerhouse to back them up.
The Realm Sea had its King, the beast races had the Beast Emperor, humans had the Three Ancestors, but the Buddhist clan had no one.
Lu Xichuan continued, "What Iâve said above isnât actually a secret. Many people in our Chamber of Commerce know this. The reason Iâm telling Mr. Lin these things is to warn you to be careful in Buddhist territory."
"Some Buddhists still remember the past events and arenât friendly towards humans."
"Especially in some Ancient Buddhaâs Buddha Lands, itâs best if Mr. Lin can avoid going there."
Lin Moyu nodded slightly, "Thank you for telling me, Senior Xichuan. Iâll be careful."
Lu Xichuan continued, "Next, let me tell you about our journey this time. Because weâll be crossing the eastern and western ends of the Realm Sea, passing through the center of the Realm Sea."
"There are several giant whirlpools in the center of the Realm Sea, which might affect our warship. At that time, Mr. Lin must be careful, especially when observing the whirlpools. Donât get sucked in by the whirlpoolâs power."
"Every time, there are always people who get sucked into the whirlpools and perish."
Lin Moyu had seen in the materials that there were great whirlpools in the center of the Realm Sea, with terrifying suction power, leading to unknown areas.
Basically, all those who were sucked into the whirlpools never returned.
Once, a ninth-level Dao Venerable powerhouse wanted to enter the whirlpool to investigate but also didnât come back.
Lin Moyu had speculated about the whirlpools before. He thought the whirlpools should lead to the formation group at the bottom of the sea.
People swept into them might have entered the interior of the seal.
Faced with the Outer Realm Gods inside the seal and various divine pets, a ninth-level Dao Venerable would indeed have no chance of survival.
Lu Xichuan continued, "Near the great whirlpools, there lives a kind of being. These beings are very strange, possessing extremely strong power."
"Whether itâs attack power, defense, or speed, theyâre all very strong."
"The most troublesome thing is that these monsters have an ability that makes people hate them. Anyone who sees them will want to kill them."
"We warn everyone every time, but there are always people who rush out, and the results are often not good."
Lin Moyu was slightly shocked, "A feeling of disgust?"
Lu Xichuan said, "Yes, itâs an inexplicable feeling of disgust. Youâll understand when you see it, Mr. Lin."
Lu Xichuan obviously didnât know much about the information on Outer Realm Gods, so he didnât know the source of this feeling of disgust.
But Lin Moyu knew very well that this feeling of disgust came from the Great Dao.
"Beings that the Great Dao abhors have appeared in the Realm Sea."
"They appear near the great whirlpools. Could it be that the power of the seal has loosened, causing the power of the Outer Realm Gods to leak out and contaminate the sea race beings?"
"But Outer Realm Gods donât seem to have the ability to contaminate other beings. That should be the specialty of the Black Blood Realm."
Lin Moyu asked, "Have these beings always existed?"
Lu Xichuan said, "Theyâve always existed, but in the past two to three thousand years, their numbers seem to be increasing. However, they donât pose a threat to the Hurricane Warships. As long as you donât rush out yourself, there wonât be any danger."
Lin Moyu asked, "Have you reported this to the Three Ancestors?"
Lu Xichuan said, "We have. We received a reply from Miss Lu Lian saying that this is the King of the Realm Seaâs business, and we donât need to worry about it."
Lin Moyu nodded. It was good that they had reported it.
But with the King of the Realm Sea there, there shouldnât be any major problems.
Lu Xichuan then mentioned some precautions regarding the dragon race and insect race in the Western Continent. He had been to the Western Continent countless times and was quite clear about many things.
Lin Moyu took note. It might be useful.
After docking for two days, the warship slowly started, flying towards the west.
