Chapter 3330: 3330
Chapter 3330: Four Crazy Girls, Perfect for a Mahjong Game
The Hurricane Warship was flying over the Boundary Sea, heading from the Western Continent to the Southern Continent. The journey across the Boundary Sea would take about thirty days.
In truth, with the Hurricane Warship's speed, it could reach the Southern Continent in less than ten days if flying at full power.
However, it was clear that the Hurricane Warship had other tasks to complete, so it wasn't flying particularly fast.
According to Lu Feng Yao, they would pass by a small island called Bei Xian Island along the way. They needed to stop there to collect some special shells and bring them back.
These shells were cultivated by the Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce on Bei Xian Island and were usually tended by the Sea Race. The Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce paid for this service.
The shells were unique and could only survive on Bei Xian Island, so every time the Hurricane Warship returned from the Western Continent, it would make a stop there.
The Boundary Sea looked uniform, with no apparent differences in environment or scenery—it all seemed identical.
However, Lin Moyu could sense subtle differences.
He felt a strange familiarity with this sea region. It was here that he had once participated in the Boundary Sea Contest.
The Boundary Sea Contest only took place in this part of the Boundary Sea between the Western and Southern Continents. Whether cultivators came from the Eastern, Northern, or Southern Continents, they had to come here if they wanted to participate in the contest.
The Sea Race had designated a large area of the Boundary Sea for this contest and divided it into a hundred smaller regions.
Each small region was overseen by a Celestial Venerable who maintained basic fairness.
This specific contest area was relatively close to the Southern Continent.
It was said that Buddhist cultivators had once participated in the Boundary Sea Contest. However, after offending the Sea Race, they were banned from entering the Boundary Sea. Since then, they had no place in the contest.
This time, the Hurricane Warship would also pass through the contest area.
Lin Moyu looked out at the Boundary Sea from the ship's rail, his gaze filled with memories. Once upon a time, he had set out from this sea region, led by Celestial Venerable Zhishui, heading to the Southern Continent.
He wondered if Celestial Venerable Zhishui was still around now.
He should be. Hundreds or thousands of years might seem long, but for Celestial Venerable Zhishui, it might just feel like a nap.
Celestial Venerable Zhishui was very unique. He had lived for an incredibly long time and once said that he had lived longer than even the King of the Boundary Sea.
At that time, Lin Moyu hadn't understood what that meant. But now he did.
Celestial Venerable Zhishui was only at Celestial Venerable level but had survived since prehistoric times.
This time upon returning, if there was an opportunity, Lin Moyu thought he might visit Celestial Venerable Zhishui for a chat and bring him some wine.
The wine he gave him before was probably long gone after all these years.
After several days of sailing over the Boundary Sea, the Hurricane Warship slowed down and stopped.
Beneath them was a small island with a diameter of only about a thousand miles.
For ordinary people, a thousand-mile island wasn't small. But for cultivators, it was just a speck of land.
Waves from the Boundary Sea crashed against the island's shores, revealing large expanses of reef.
On those reefs and beaches glimmered points of light in various colors.
Each glimmer represented a shell. The shells emitted different lights corresponding to their different attributes.
Moreover, clear patterns on each shell indicated their age. Only shells of a certain age were useful.
Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce personnel disembarked from the warship with special tools to collect shells.
Meanwhile, formations on the Hurricane Warship were activated to prevent anyone from leaving.
It wasn't that Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce was stingy—it was to avoid causing trouble.
Fortunately, all Dao Venerables aboard were well-behaved; no one caused any issues. Otherwise, Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce wasn't known for being lenient.
Little Mei watched as Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce members collected shells with curiosity in her eyes. "Teacher, what are these shells used for?"
Despite her past life's memories and having reached ninth level Dao Venerable before, Little Mei still didn't know many things.
She had spent most of her time cultivating in her past life. Her knowledge as a ninth level Dao Venerable wasn't even as extensive as Lin Moyu's current understanding.
Lin Moyu smiled and said, "These are called Rainbow Fairy Shells. Their colors represent different attributes."
"Rainbow Fairy Shells over 100 years old are materials for crafting Dao Venerable-level artifacts. The shell meat is excellent for alchemy."
"If you find a thousand-year-old Rainbow Fairy Shell, it's material for fourth level Dao Venerable artifacts. A ten-thousand-year-old Rainbow Fairy Shell is material for seventh level Dao Venerable artifacts."
Little Mei said, "So they're quite precious."
Lin Moyu replied, "Indeed they are. But they're not easy to obtain. This Bei Xian Island is isolated deep in the Boundary Sea. The surrounding area often sees visits from Sea Race members. Rainbow Fairy Shells are often eaten before they can grow."
Little Mei asked curiously, "Then why not set up defenses?"
Lin Moyu laughed and said, "This is Sea Race territory. Are you suggesting setting up formations to keep them out?"
"Rainbow Fairy Shells aren't just food for some members of the Sea Race—they're also essential for their growth and evolution."
"So this place is likely shared between the Three Ancestors and the Sea Race. The harvests are limited and depend on luck."
"But at the same time, this creates scarcity value—making Rainbow Fairy Shells more expensive. The Three Ancestors won't lose out."
Little Mei understood now and said with admiration, "So that's how it is! The Three Ancestors really are businessmen."
Lin Moyu chuckled and said, "Indeed—they're probably the biggest foxes on the Origin Continent."
Little Mei giggled but then said seriously, "But I think Teacher is smarter than them!"
Lin Moyu squinted at Little Mei with mock sternness. "It seems you're itching for trouble—daring to joke about your teacher."
Little Mei stuck out her tongue playfully. "Teacher's heart is as vast as the Boundary Sea; surely you won't blame me."
With her past life's memories combined with her current age's innocence—sometimes mature and sometimes adorable—Lin Moyu had grown used to Little Mei's demeanor by now.
Thinking about returning to Eastern Continent soon made Lin Moyu reflect aloud: "Four crazy girls... enough for a game of mahjong."
Little Mei blinked her big eyes curiously: "Teacher—what's mahjong?"
Lin Moyu explained: "It's a game played by four people. When we return to Eastern Continent—I'll teach you so you can play with Xiao Yue and others."
Knowing about Xiao Yue and others already made Little Mei excited: "Alright! I'll play with them when we get back!"
After staying at Bei Xian Island for one day collecting shells—the Hurricane Warship set off again—flying lower this time—only about 100 meters above sea level.
Half a day later—a silvery light appeared ahead on their path.
As soon as this silver light appeared—ten large nets dropped down beneath them into Boundary Sea waters—dragging behind as they flew forward...
The warship accelerated—plunging into shimmering silver light...
In an instant—the view outside became filled with countless silvery glimmers like stars scattered across night skies—a breathtaking sight...
"So beautiful!" Little Mei exclaimed—her eyes sparkling—as she gazed at dazzling silver brilliance outside...
Lin Moyu explained: "These silvery glimmers are Silverlight Fish—a fantastic alchemical ingredient... Though their cultivation level isn't high—their bloodlines contain traces of Great Dao power—and they're essential ingredients in many pills..."
"And they're incredibly abundant—this single net will likely catch millions."
Little Mei marveled: "I know about Silverlight Fish—but I've never seen them before... So this is what they look like... The Three Ancestors must make so much money—I remember Silverlight Fish aren't cheap!"
Lin Moyu agreed: "They're not cheap—which is why Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce became number one... Just Silverlight Fish alone can fill their coffers."
Other chambers couldn't even qualify—or have resources—to collect materials from Boundary Seas...
Many materials were exclusive monopolies held by Lu Feng Chamber—which naturally made them dominant...
The Hurricane Warship continued collecting materials while navigating through Boundary Seas—for over ten days—before suddenly slowing down again...
Lu Feng Yao's voice rang out: "Ahead lies Goldenwater Beast territory—there may be conflict—please remain calm."
