Serpent Ancestor
Chapter 287: Twin Islands, butcher enters the island to sell stolen goodsAn hour later.
Xu Hei left Bonan's cave dwelling with mixed feelings.
The poison had been completely eradicated, leaving no hidden dangers, but the dolphin was also on the brink of death.
In the end, it was the two elders of the clan who helped clean up the scene.
Days passed, and the story of Bonan spread through the Dolphin Clan like the wind, becoming exaggerated and mythical.
Some busybody even gave Bonan the nickname "Jet Warrior."
This infuriated the person involved, but it was said that the nickname came from the clan leader after he got drunk.
Of course, that's all in the past now. Xu Hei left the Dolphin Clan that very day, not staying a second longer.
...
This time, Xu Hei was no longer being tracked. With the Water Thunder Wings, unless someone at the Elemental Infant level personally acted, no one could catch up to him.Back on the island, Hei Huang handed him a jade talisman.
"What is this?" Xu Hei asked, puzzled.
"This is something to shield your fortune. With this, you can become ordinary, blending in with the crowd, and no one can find you just by your fortune," Hei Huang explained.
This was clearly a magical treasure aimed at cultivators like Tianji Shangren.
Hei Huang continued, taking out a fish-skin armor made from fish skin, entirely blue with ocean patterns and inscribed with various runes.
Despite the modifications to its appearance, Xu Hei recognized it at a glance as being made from Lei Man's skin.
"Wearing this armor will erase all traces of you in the water, making it impossible to track you by water currents."
"Additionally, this is a stone that disrupts direction, called the Chaos Magnet Stone, which can make you immune to certain demonic beasts' tracking abilities."
Hei Huang presented three different magical treasures, all designed to prevent tracking, leaving Xu Hei dazzled and speechless.
Previously, he had told Hei Huang about being continuously tracked, and Hei Huang provided a solution.
"With these magical treasures, can I rest easy?" Xu Hei quickly asked.
"Of course not. If you encounter someone much stronger, they can ignore these, but you won't be dealing with that level for now."
Hei Huang crossed his arms proudly and said, "Even if that evil faction makes a move, as long as it's not the highest level so-called sea god, you can avoid being tracked."
Xu Hei carefully stored the three magical treasures.
His experience was still too shallow, and when faced with unfamiliar methods, he didn't know how to respond. This old dog was more reliable.
At this moment, Han Te emerged from the cave dwelling.
He still had the same appearance, with flying swords all over his body, flowing purple hair, and metal objects all over his robe and pants.
Although his cultivation was still at the initial Core Formation stage, unchanged, Xu Hei bet that this person had definitely made a breakthrough.
"Brother Hei, could you tell me where Bai Qiushui is?" Han Te asked with an awkward smile.
Hei Huang took out a map jade slip and tossed it over. Han Te caught it and his expression froze.
"That far?" Han Te's face turned pale.
"Not only is it far, but there are also at least three Elemental Infant stage guards on that island. If you're brave enough, you can try rescuing someone," Hei Huang mocked.
Han Te immediately fell silent.
Xu Hei went to the seaside and took out a boat, boarding it.
He took out a map, an East Sea map given to him by the Dolphin Clan, marking most of the East Sea regions.
One location, Twin Islands, was the largest island nearby and the most prosperous place for sea trade, known as one of the three major islands of the East Sea.
Xu Hei had accumulated too many miscellaneous items and urgently needed a place to offload them. Twin Islands was the most suitable.
Coincidentally, Xu Bai was also near Twin Islands.
"Let's go!"
Xu Hei steered the boat, transforming into a streak of light heading towards Twin Islands.
He took out the butcher puppet, covering it with armor to conceal its face, making it easier to act.
The journey was long, taking at least three days, and using a boat was the most effortless way.
Han Te, stepping on a flying sword, hurriedly caught up and shouted from outside, "Brother, are you heading to a human island in that outfit? I, Han, have extensive connections and have been to most of the islands in the East Sea. I can be your guide, and... forget it, for an old customer, it's free!"
Seeing Xu Hei remain silent, Han Te stepped aboard the boat.
Actually, he also needed to replenish supplies in a city, so it was convenient to travel together.
Han Te sat cross-legged next to the butcher, smiling, "Is this your first time going to sea?"
Xu Hei ignored him.
Han Te's eyes flickered, and he praised, "Your sailing skills are impressive, truly a chosen one among thousands, mastering everything."
Xu Hei stepped back a few steps, expressionless, and said, "You steer."
"Uh..." Han Te's expression stiffened, but he nodded, "Alright!"
He was frustrated, as flattery seemed ineffective on this demonic beast, putting even a social expert like him in a bind.
Xu Hei retreated to the cabin, taking out a sword embryo and a large amount of star meteorite, beginning to forge his first flying sword.
Hei Huang, appearing in the cabin at some point, took out the bones of an electric eel, inscribing formation patterns, seemingly crafting some kind of magical treasure.
And so, with Han Te as the toolman steering the boat, the two demonic beasts crafted treasures in the cabin, undisturbed by wind or rain.
It must be said, Han Te's sailing skills were quite steady. They arrived a day earlier than Xu Hei had expected, reaching their destination in two days.
...
In the distance, a dense foggy area appeared, impossible to see from afar. Only upon approaching and passing through a restriction could the full view be seen.
It was a grand and majestic large island!
The island was covered with towering mountains, shrouded in clouds and mist, resembling a massive city in the human world.
One of the three major islands of the East Sea, Twin Islands.
Twin Islands consisted of a main island and a secondary island. The main island was a mix of mortals and cultivators, with mortals making up over seventy percent. Most cultivators were in the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment stages, with few Core Formation stage cultivators, less than one in a thousand.
On the secondary island, all were cultivators, and only those with certain status could enter.
Before the boat even approached, two cultivators flew over to conduct a routine inspection.
Han Te quickly stood up and greeted them with a smile, "Oh, isn't this Brother Li and Brother Zhao? It's me, Han Te, do you remember?"
As he spoke, Han Te handed over a storage bag, suppressing his cultivation to the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage.
"Oh? It's you?"
The two glanced at him, ignoring the storage bag, and the cultivator named Zhao stepped forward to search the boat.
"Apologies, Brother Han, the evil faction has been rampant lately, and we have to strengthen our defenses. Any potential evil faction cultivators must be stopped at the gate; it's the island master's order, and we're just following orders," Li Yu said, clasping his hands.
Han Te quickly clasped his hands in return, "I understand, I understand."
He had no confidence in the demonic beasts entering the city and could only hope they wouldn't cause any trouble.
"Ah! Ouch!"
Suddenly, a scream came from the side. Zhao Xing had just stepped onto the boat when his leg was bitten, bleeding profusely with teeth marks.
"Fing hell, where did this dog come from! Ah!"
As he spoke, he was bitten again.
