Chapter 1369: Chapter 1232 Ye, Where Are You? Chapter 1369: Chapter 1232 Ye, Where Are You? With the speed of Dream of Oblivion, they crossed New Moon Land in no time.
Soon, everyone arrived at White Nightmare Demon City.
After a brief rest at the White Nightmare Demon City located in the Eternal Pulse, they entered the Henghai.
When it was time to set sail, Morning Crown Prince asked a question that also perplexed Chu Mu, which was, why take a ship?
If you could fly, wouldnât taking a ship seem unnecessary?
And with the shipâs slow pace, how many years would it take to find the Demon Tomb in the vast ocean?
âYou donât know about this,â said Sang Ying with a mysterious smile as he began to explain, âThe ocean is vastly larger than the land. On land, we can easily find a place to rest, and for those with strong wilderness survival skills, there are no dangerous areas. But itâs different on the ocean. Indeed, there are islands in the sea, but in the real vast ocean, you might not see an island for a month. During such a long duration, even flying creatures must land to rest. Even if you can control water, you canât be sure that a sea beast wonât surge up from below, along with many other unstable factors. Without a ship, we would be utterly exhausted.â
Both Chu Mu and Morning Crown Prince, unfamiliar with the ocean, found Sang Yingâs explanation reasonable.
The best ship available in White Nightmare Demon City was one called the White Sea Beast.
This ship, made from the skin and bones of a Peak Emperor level sea beast, was about fifty meters long and could accommodate over twenty people without any problem.
However, Sang Ying was not entirely satisfied with this ship. He felt that to travel to Henghai, a Dominator Level ship was necessary. Otherwise, a strong wave could shatter the ship to pieces.
But having a ship was better than none, and Sang Ying had to make do and planned to transform it during the journey.
Chu Mu was genuinely surprised that Sang Ying could modify ships; bringing him along had been the right choice.
The ship made by the White Nightmare Demon Palace definitely wouldnât be propelled by human power; the propulsion system of the White Sea Beast was a Water System formation. This Water System formation, embedded with numerous Water energy stones, provided a continuous source of power.
The Water System formation usually utilized the basic water column skill. By releasing the water column backward, it created a jet effect, allowing the ship to race across the ocean.
In New Moon Land, only luxurious ships were equipped with such a Water System formation; the White Sea Beast had ten such Water System formation paddles, enabling it to move quite quickly, almost comparable to the speed of a Peak Emperor running on land.
Of course, the speed of a Peak Emperor was not enough for people like Chu Mu who had reached the Dominator level. Sang Yingâs Space Ring had everythingâ a heap of shipbuilding materials. When Chu Mu and Morning Crown Prince saw him unloading a pile of materials onto the deck, they were shocked, suspecting that he had somehow dismantled a whole ship into his Space Ring.
In the following days, Sang Ying began his grand modification project, replacing all the propulsion sourceâs Water System crystal stones with Xuan-grade creatureâs Water System crystal cores. With this kind of power, the shipâs speed was now comparable to that of Dominator-level creatures.
The ocean was a brilliant blue, and the White Sea Beast was just a tiny white dot in it.
The water exquisitely split apart, causing dozens of meters high waves. The agile White Sea Beast swept by, leaving a long trail in the calm ocean.
âŠ
At night, when the sky was clear and cloudless, the nightfall merged with the ocean, blurring the lines between the misty starry sky and the star-reflected sea.
A Wind-binding Spirit arranged a wind barrier around the White Sea Beast, making the breeze much softer even at high speeds.
By nighttime, Morning Crown Prince, Xia Zhixian, and Sang Ying had all gone to their rooms to meditate or sleep.
After racing across the sea for a month, everyone realized the importance of the ship.
At the Soul Controller level, it was indeed possible to rest directly on the back of a Winged Soul Pet. However, not getting proper rest was torturous for the spirit. Having rooms and beds and a ship they could move around in freely meant they could always keep their energy full. They also didnât have to constantly switch Winged Soul Pets, draining their stamina.
All the scattered pieces on the deck had been cleared by Sang Ying. On the clean deck, a snowy white little fox chased its tail in a comical manner.
This little fox was naturally the Heavenly Immortal Ice Curse Seal Demon Fox. Now, it had reached about seven or eight stages, yet it still looked like a young pet.
Failing to catch its tail, the Little Ice Fox stopped chasing it. With a few light leaps, it jumped onto the deck and snuggled into the arms of a pure and beautiful ghost, emitting a murmuring sound.
Princess Jinrou, who could only touch the Little Ice Foxâs body, looked down at the adorable creature, her lips curling into a serene smile. She gently stroked the fur of the Little Ice Fox with her hand.
At that moment, Chu Mu stood on the other side of the deck. He glanced at the upright and graceful Princess Jinrou, recalling a long-gone scene.
He remembered the slightly melancholic girl facing the sea breeze, always inadvertently springing to his mind.
However, with the arrival of Ye Qingzi, her image had gradually faded.
Princess Jinrou, aware that Chu Mu was nearby, came to her senses and glanced at him.
With her Mind Reading Technique, she naturally knew Chu Mu was reminiscing about the past.
âI remember back then, you were also struggling with spells on the deck,â Princess Jinrouâs voice drifted over like a song, tinged with playfulness.
Chu Mu, feeling awkward, scratched his head. So she remembered; Chu Mu thought she had long forgotten.
âI also remember you, you scoundrel, holding me hostage in Jia City and shamelessly speaking those words at the Great Chu Noble Family,â Princess Jinrou laughed.
Today, she intended to tease Chu Mu.
âUhâŠâ Chu Mu blushed.
When Chu Mu was in Jia City, he was afraid that Little Mo Xieâs mutation would be revealed, so he decisively kidnapped her.
Not long after that, Chu Mu encountered her again at the Great Chu Noble Family.
Moreover, when Chu Mu and Princess Jinrou were dueling, Chu Mu did not hide his admiration for her.
Ye Qingzi was also present at the time; although their relationship hadnât reached that point yet, later on, Ye Qingzi often interrogated Chu Mu about what exactly he had said to Princess Jinrou.
âI was too young back then,â Chu Mu could only say thick-facedly, attributing all issues to his youth.
âYou make it sound like youâre very old now,â Princess Jinrouâs lips curved slightly, obviously dissatisfied with Chu Muâs evasive answer.
Chu Mu chuckled, pretending as if nothing had happened.
In fact, Chu Mu was well aware that what was missed was missed.
Princess Jinrou glanced at Chu Mu and whispered, âAt first, I thought being able to read peopleâs minds might be interesting, but gradually I found that what I read can often be quite cruelâŠâ
âThen you better not read it; sometimes, itâs better not to know some things, as it just adds to the trouble,â Chu Mu said.
âDo you know what Qingyi is thinking?â Princess Jinrou asked softly.
Chu Mu shook his head.
How could he possibly know what Mu Qingyi was thinking?
âIf you want to know, I can tell you,â Princess Jinrou floated over to Chu Mu, a mysterious smile on her face.
âUh, related to what?â Chu Mu was not a gossip.
âOf course, itâs about you.â
âThen never mind,â Chu Mu said.
âYou already know, donât you?â
âThatâŠâ Chu Mu scratched his head and changed the subject, âItâs impolite to peek into other peopleâs private thoughts.â
âOkay, then I wonât read othersâ minds anymore,â Princess Jinrou said.
âHowever, I am curious to know whatâs on your mind?â Chu Mu smiled slightly, always being tormented by the little princess wasnât good, he had to strike back.
âMe?â Princess Jinrou averted her gaze as if truly afraid that Chu Mu would see through her thoughts.
When Princess Jinrou saw Chu Muâs smile turning into a bit of a sneer, she immediately realized that this guy was purposely teasing her, she stuck out her tongue slightly and said, âI wonât tell you.â
After that, Princess Jinrouâs body lightly floated up and flew towards the cabin room.
Moments later, like a startled little deer, Princess Jinrou hurriedly flew back to the deck.
Chu Mu, watching her return with a flushed face, asked with a hint of puzzlement, âWhat happened?â
Princess Jinrouâs cheeks flushed even redder, which would have been extremely charming had she not been in her ghostly state.
âThey are in the same room.â Having become a ghost, Princess Jinrou got used to phasing through objects, but just now she accidentally passed through Xia Zhixianâs room and saw something she shouldnât have, which caused her cheeks to turn extremely red.
Chu Mu, being an experienced person, quickly realized and a knowing smile appeared on his lips.
These two, there really is something fishy going on!
âPervert! Donât let your thoughts run wild!â Princess Jinrouâs cheeks grew even redder, and she glared at Chu Mu in irritation.
âUhâŠâ Chu Mu had forgotten that Princess Jinrou could read minds; any normal man would have thought amiss.
Princess Jinrou dared not go back to the cabin anymore, staying by Chu Muâs side always led her to find this bad guy harboring mischievous thoughts, and in annoyance, she hid at the stern of the ship.
Chu Mu did not bother about Princess Jinrouâs thin-skinned reactions; his gaze returned to the ocean, the starlight reflecting in his black pupils made his eyes appear even more distinct and extraordinary.
Chu Muâs thoughts kept drifting, sometimes back to the experiences on Nightmare Demon Island and Prison Island, and sometimes to those wandering nights afar.
âNight, where exactly are you, why canât I sense you?â Chu Mu murmured to himself.
The connection between souls can sometimes be felt even from a great distance.
However, for some reason, Nightâs soul connection seemed isolated, preventing Chu Mu from feeling any of his spiritual fluctuations, as if they were separated.
The Night Thunder Dream Beast, Chu Mu still remembered the first time he encountered the Night Thunder Dream Beast on Prison Island, it held its head high with pride, its pair of black, spirited, and cold eyes staring at him and Mo Ye.
It ran alone through the nightâs jungle, its dark body blending into the darkness, only a tail of white feathers from the back ridge to the tail, sleek and graceful as it swept byâŠ
