Fan Xiao watched the back of Chen Shi, feeling a bit hesitant.
He really wanted to act now, regardless of everything, to eliminate Chen Shi!
His inner self told him that now was the best chance to eliminate Chen Shi. Missing this opportunity might not give him another chance!
He could see that Chen Shi was ambitious, supported by ideals and ideas, and was also very capable!
It's not scary for soone to have ambition; what's scary is soone who has ambition while also pursuing ideals and having the support of inner beliefs.
Such a person is invincible!
Chen Shi was such a person.
He was a great threat to the Heavenly Court and the Immortal Court.
If Chen Shi is not removed, it will greatly affect the Supre's career. He might even beco the Supre's rival in the future!
As the Supre's eldest disciple, Fan Xiao has always relieved the Supre of worries and difficulties. So things that were unsuitable for the Supre to do, he would take the initiative to do. So people that the Supre couldn't eliminate, he would take the initiative to eliminate them for the Supre!
He was loyal and even revered the Supre.
He was not only impressed by the Supre's cultivation and practice but also by the Supre's breadth of mind and ambition.
But now, he felt a deep sense of crisis.
He felt the crisis for the Supre.
"Perhaps, he will beco another Supre, perhaps even perform better than the Supre!"
A terrifying idea erged in his mind, consuming his original beliefs.
His reverence for the Supre began to waver.
Previously, he worshipped the Supre and never questioned the Supre's career and aspirations, but now, he was shaken.
Seize the mont to kill Chen Shi!
This thought arose, making him hesitate. He didn't kill Chen Shi because Chen Shi planted a thorn in his Dao Heart. Without breaking the Hongng Division, he couldn't certify Daluo.
But without killing Chen Shi, Chen Shi might endanger the Supre's career.
Two thoughts struggled and clashed in his mind, sotis filling him with killing intent towards Chen Shi, sotis dissipating his killing intent, making his expression uncertain.
Chen Shi seed unaware of the waves of killing intent from behind, still chatting and laughing with him. After six or seven days, they arrived at an Immortal City by the coast.
This place was called Diaoji City, a crucial fortress for entering the North Sea.
The Heavenly Gods guarding this place had mighty physiques and were very powerful. There were many ships here going to sea, and many immortals ca here. So were sent by the Black Taibao, and so ca here voluntarily to find work.
Fan Xiao observed and asked Chen Shi, "What's the difference between these two types of immortals?"
Chen Shi said, "The immortals who co here voluntarily to find work sell themselves to the shipowner, and the money they earn is theirs. The immortals sent by the Black Taibao, the shipowner gives the sale money to the Black Taibao. No matter if they are sold or voluntarily sell themselves, once on the ship, the shipowner will pay wages. Those who are sold receive a bit less, and those who sell themselves receive a bit more."
"I see."
Fan Xiao said, "This ti I will sell myself, you don't need to be the Black Taibao."
The two found a ship for hunting sea beasts called Qing Han. The bow of the ship was in the shape of a blue bird, and feather-like paddle blades were on both sides of the hull. Once in the sea, they flapped like wings, propelling the ship forward.
If they were to use this ship, it could fly in the air, very fast and agile, a common vessel for catching sea beasts.
Chen Shi and Fan Xiao each sold themselves, exchanged for a sum of money, and boarded the Qing Han. The shipowner was a bald man, perhaps a monk from the Western Heaven, with a robust physique, and a loud voice like a bell.
There were more than ten sailors on the boat, all of them immortals.
The shipowner said, "Since you sold for a high price, you'll be flying shuttle hands on the ship."
Fan Xiao asked, "What is a flying shuttle hand?"
The shipowner explained, "It's when we bind you with chains, attach a big hook to you, and throw you into the sea. Qing Han will fly ahead, and you'll skim on the water's surface like a flying shuttlefish in the sea. This will arouse the sea beasts' desire to hunt and make them bite the hook. But don't worry, once you're swallowed, we'll rescue you right away, without a scratch."
Fan Xiao asked, "Where is the previous flying shuttle hand on the ship?"
"Eaten by a sea beast."
Fan Xiao was silent for a mont, then asked, "Why wasn't he rescued?"
"He was bitten to pieces, couldn't be saved. But the sea beast we're fishing for this ti isn't that dangerous. Rest assured, I can tell just by looking at you that you're a Sea Fishing Saint Body!"
...
Qing Han sailed for more than two months, far from the Northern Continent, and arrived at the Abyss Sea.
This place was near the Heavenly Abyss, where the vast sea water poured into the Heavenly Abyss, forming an incredibly magnificent waterfall.
Qing Han was fishing for sea beasts near the great waterfall of the Abyss Sea. The sea beasts they targeted were also seen by Chen Shi and others, often found in the Magical Treasures refined by the Immortal Family, known as the Sea Beast Grape Mirror.
When the treasure is summoned, three to five sea beasts erge from the copper mirror, tearing to pieces anyone caught in the mirror light.
This type of sea beast is a creature like a dragon and a horse, swift in the water, weaving through the azure waves, and even able to ascend against the torrents of the Heavenly Abyss!
The powerful aura of an immortal, along with the chewy texture of the Primordial Spirit, are fatally attractive to such sea beasts, so rarely do they not bite the hook when fishing for sea beasts in the Abyss Sea.
The key issue is whether the flying shuttle hand survives after biting the hook and whether they can reel the sea beast in.
Chen Shi and Fan Xiao were each bound with chains and hooked with human-sized big hooks, threaded between iron chains. The sailors on the ship raised the masts, throwing the two into the water. The Qing Han Boat imdiately accelerated, dragging them rapidly across the sea's surface.
