After analysis by several cabinet ministers from the Righteous Law Pavilion accompanying the army who are skilled in arrays, they found that the seawater in this region contains a special kind of primordial Qi, which corrodes a type of array material engraved on the ship hulls, thus gradually leading to array failure.
This result is quite frightening, because it ans that the 'Floating Feather' array on all other ships might also fail next!
The issue was quickly reported to Li Fei, the commander.
Although there are several peak combat powers in the army, only Li Fei, who practices Dual Cultivation of Magic and Martial Arts, possesses magic cultivation at the True One Realm.
Killing is possible for the Martial Saint, but solving this problem is out of reach.
Li Fei flew out from the ship and ca to the front of the fleet, floating in mid-air.
With a thought, a mighty True Power surged from within him, like rivers flowing into the sea!
The powerful True Power shuttled and intertwined through the seawater beneath the fleet.
An extrely simple yet astonishingly large-scale magic rapidly took shape—
Water Purification Technique!
Li Fei thoroughly purified the seawater in the area where the fleet was located, filtering out all primordial Qi or other impurities.
Fortunately, only this simple magic was needed to resolve the issue; otherwise, if it were any complex magic, Li Fei would need to learn on the spot.
Li Fei then continuously hovered above the fleet, maintaining the Water Purification Technique while proceeding with the fleet.
After a day's accelerated sailing, the fleet exited this special mariti region.
Li Fei, who maintained such a large-scale magic for the entire day, returned to his ship, unfazed amidst the admiring gazes of all soldiers.
The West Expedition Army's morale soared!
....
On the twenty-first day of sailing, the fleet encountered a storm at sea!
Lead-gray clouds pressed low on the sea, like a giant stone ready for execution clenched by the Heavenly God.
The sky, previously bearing strands of pale light struggling to survive, was now utterly engulfed. The air, as thick as a cloth soaked with oil, weighed heavily on the chest of every soldier in the fleet, with every breath tainted by a salty, rusty stench.
Then, the Sky Do was torn open!
The first white lightning, like a giant axe weighing billions of pounds, split the chaotic heavens and earth in half, causing the sea surface to violently upheave.
The hurricane arrived!
The fierce wind, like countless frenzied beasts, collided madly with the sea, attempting to lift the entire ocean to the sky!
"Activate the array—!"
Commanders in the fleet shouted loudly, issuing orders.
Beyond the 'Floating Feather' array, every ship hull was also engraved with the 'Rock Array' to counteract sea storms.
The bottom of the steel ships glowed in the near-black seawater, and the originally violently swaying hulls quickly steadied.
But before the soldiers could breathe a sigh of relief, the scene ahead made everyone's eyes widen—
The sea, stood up!
Up ahead, in the intermittent lightning, was a moving, ink-black mountain range!
Mountains ford by towering waves, carrying magnificent heavenly power, crushed towards the fleet, minuscule as insects!
Even Martial Arts Masters and Great Grandmasters felt insignificant in the face of such ethereal might.
"How is this possible?!"
A commander familiar with navigation murmured incredulously.
The Da Lan Dynasty certainly wouldn't let hundreds of thousands of troops sail a completely uncharted route; the route taken by the West Expedition Army had been repeatedly verified, confirming no major issues.
In past years, this route had never encountered such a terrifying storm!
Above the fleet, two streaks of Evil Qi, like angry dragons, clashed with the cloud layers and tore through thunder.
The Western Garrison Army and Red Qilin Army simultaneously activated their military formations!
In the presence of such heavenly might, peak combat power had to be deployed, and not just one—
The two streaks of Evil Qi transford into barriers, protecting the entire fleet within.
Wenren Zheng and Wang Chengze, two Martial Saints, appeared one after another, guarding the flanks of the fleet.
The black mountain range grew closer, blocking out the sky and sun, bringing a suffocating sense of oppression!
Finally, the long-awaited figure appeared at the front of the fleet.
Li Fei stood before the giant wave, his expression calm, nonchalantly throwing a punch forward.
A dazzling beam pierced into the black mountain range ahead.
Ti seed to freeze at that mont.
The sound vanished.
The thunderous roar of destruction, the howl of the fierce wind, the flashing thunder, all noises ceased beneath this punch!
In the middle of the crushing ink-black wave mountain, appeared a straight, incredibly smooth crack.
The crack rapidly spread upward and to both sides, as if an invisible Divine Sword traversing heaven and earth split the frenzied sea monster in two with supre sharpness!
The seawater parted to both sides, forming two thousand-ter-high, mirror-smooth water walls.
The water walls froze there, maintaining a rushing roar stance, but unable to close for the ti being.
"Continue forward."
Between the flashing clouds and the pitch-black sea, the commander in the golden robe issued an order.
The voice clearly reached the ears of hundreds of thousands of soldiers.
"Forward—!!!"
The commanders shouted loudly, blood boiling.
The fleet sailed onward, braving the waves through the giant gorge between the huge water walls standing across heaven and earth.
...
PS: Wishing everyone a happy holiday and may you all sail smoothly in life~
