Chapter 1422: Chapter 1409: Ten Days Later, Arrive at Sudden Wind Ocean_1 Chapter 1422: Chapter 1409: Ten Days Later, Arrive at Sudden Wind Ocean_1 “How am I not serious?”
Shitou suddenly lowered his head, avoiding the hand and retorting with his neck stiff, “Knowing that there's danger and slim chances of survival ahead, it's normal to write a will and arrange for what happens next, right?”
“If you want to write, no one's stopping you.”
Pei Qingyu patted his shoulder and teased him playfully, “But if you get eaten by a sea monster in one bite, what's the point of your will?”
“Ahem.”
Shitou was embarrassed and his face turned red.
“Hahaha.”
Pei Qingyu enjoyed his awkwardness and laughed heartily.
“Everyone, take your seats. The Spiritual Boat is about to take off.”
The attendant from Treasure Gathering Pavilion threw out a series of spirit stones, casting them into the different Array Eyes of the Spiritual Boat.
Runes on the surface of the Spiritual Boat lit up, and it took off like an arrow, flying towards the distance.

Most people were bored during the ten-day flight over the sea. Some were chatting with acquaintances, while others were closing their eyes to rest.
Only Mu Fan seemed to have a sound barrier around him as he sat cross-legged on his seat. In an instant, he entered a meditative state and started cultivating.
Shitou could not stay idle. He used various conversation starters to chat with others and gather gossip.
His efforts paid off.
After ten days of continuous probing, he had a general understanding of the identities of the other team members.
The middle-aged man was a rogue cultivator, who only claimed his surname as Li, and called himself Li Ao. He was in the late Foundation Establishment stage.
Due to his Water Spirit Root, he had roamed the Sudden Wind Ocean for years, teaming up with others to hunt sea beasts and earn spirit stones.
Both of the female cultivators were from the Azure Dawn Sect, and the two men traveling with them were their Senior Brothers.
These four had teamed up for-group practice outside the sect.
The last two male cultivators, both in the middle Foundation Establishment stage, were from a cultivation family.
They were cautious and refused to disclose their real names. They made up fake ones, Li Quan and Li Bao, which were obviously fake.
The names of the two female cultivators were more elegant.
The one with higher cultivation level, in the middle Foundation Establishment stage, was named Song Shilin and the other in the early Foundation Establishment stage was named Li Meijing.
Their Senior Brothers, traveling with them, were Wang Zehao and Zhu Ziwen.
Wang Zehao was in the late Foundation Establishment stage. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes, a cheerful personality, and liked making friends.
Zhu Ziwen was in the middle Foundation Establishment stage and more reserved, not fond of talking.
He would only answer Shitou's questions with one word and refused to say more.
Yu Ming, the Golden Core Stage expert from the Heavenly Mist Sect, seemed hard to approach but was actually talkative and got along surprisingly well with Shitou.
Shitou accompanied him in talking about all sorts of topics for ten whole days.
The two felt a sense of kinship and lamented how they hadn't met sooner.
If it wasn't for the limited space on the Spiritual Boat, unsuitable for bowing and kowtowing, they might have really sworn a brotherhood under the heavens.

Days went by, and soon, ten days passed.
The Spiritual Boat arrived at the edge of the Sudden Wind Ocean and landed on a designated island.
“Zhisu Island is the highest and largest island on the outer edge of the Sudden Wind Ocean. It's lush with vegetation and has hundreds of Lava Caves, which can provide temporary shelter and rest.”
Having disembarked, Li Ao led the group, relying on his experience, to a familiar cave on the island.
On the way, they met other cultivators in teams. Regardless if they knew them, they would greet them.
As Wang Meng and the others responded warmly, Li Ao's eyes flashed with a sneer after those cultivators walked away.
They're all short-lived ghosts!
He thought as the sneer on the corner of his lips grew wider.
Seeing this scene, Little Kingfisher's sharp little eyes immediately reported to its Master, “That Li Ao doesn't seem like a good person.”
“Keep an eye on him.”
Qingyu's eyes darkened, and a chilling light flashed in her eyes.
Little Kingfisher gladly accepted the task and blew its own trumpet, “With this divine beast baby here, no matter how cunning he may be, he won't be able to make any trouble.”
