Chapter 29: Must Sail After The Task is Completed


    Trantor: 549690339


    In the days after the wind disaster, all inhabitants of Liuli Ind received instructions requiring every household to inspect whether the Ind Protection Array was damaged.


    The inspection method was simple; the Liuli Government would distribute a Spirit Symbol, which hung at home for a few days and nights, and observed whether any red light appeared.


    As for the remote corners of the ind, special personnel were responsible for each one.


    “There are 367 ,800 nodes in the Ind Protection Array. We must ensure that each node is normal.” Under the guidance of the Immortal Teacher, and considering their own safety, everything on Liuli Ind was paused, prioritizing the maintenance of the Ind Protection Array.


    In the past, the Immortal Teacher coordinated the inspection and repair of the array, but it was said that the Spirit Stones that maintained the operation of the array were about to be exhausted, so the Immortal Teacher returned to the Ten Thousand Immortals Ind to fetch Spirit Stones.


    Li Fan also received a Spirit Symbol.


    He hung the Spirit Symbol at home, and with careful observation, he could faintly sense a wave of invisible fluctuations spreading out from it. After expanding a certain distance, it seemed to encounter some kind of obstacle and returned.


    With the fluctuation returning, the Spirit Symbol lit up with a burst of blue light.


    A few momentster, the blue light extinguished.


    The fluctuation continued to arise.


    This cycle repeated.


    “The self-inspection of the Great Array repeats every 360 Spirit Symbol shes as a small cycle, and 360 small cycles as arge cycle. As long as no red light appears in arge cycle, it signifies that the Great Array is intact.” Li Fan recalled the instructions he had received when he had gotten the Spirit Symbol.


    “This Ind Protection Array is so vast yet extremely precise, it’s hard to imagine how it was constructed.”


    “It is said that the Ten Thousand Immortals Ind is the gathering ce for the vast majority of cultivators in the Misthaven Sea Realm. It is so mysterious that even Manager Zhao Imows little about it.


    “All he knows is that if a mortal on the ind can cleanse the impurities of their body and guide the air into the body, an Immortal Teacher will descend and take them to Ten Thousand Immortals Ind.”


    “It seems, that’s my goal in this world.”


    However, things should be carried out step by step. The first is to obtain a spot in the sea convoy, so as to have the opportunity to enter the Spirit Cleansing


    Pond.


    Li Fan had waited for hundreds of years, so naturally he was not in a hurry.


    Time quietly passed in the anxious prayers of the ind’s inhabitants.


    Five dayster, the result that put everyone on the ind at ease finally came out.


    The Ind Protection Array was not damaged.


    With the return of the Immortal Teacher bringing enough Spirit Stones, the residents of the ind finally put down their worriespletely.


    Life on Liuli Ind gradually returned to normal.


    In the following months, disaster victims from other inds asionally sought refuge on Liuli Ind.


    Those who survived were only a minority. Many people on their inds lost their lives in the recent wind disaster.


    Hearing that the immortal teacher was stationed on Liuli Ind, a look of envy filled the faces of these victims.


    The Misthaven Sea Realm is vast and boundless, with countless inds.


    Only those inds with special resource output would have an Immortal Teacher stationed there.


    Li Fan did not stay idle during these months.


    With persistent cultivation of “The Mysterious Yellow Heart-Purifying Mantra”, he finally achieved results.


    Name: Li Fan


    Realm: Mortal


    Physiological age: 41/881


    Mental age: 504/11191


    Both the physiological and mental age limits increased again. Despite the small extent, Li Fan felt invigorated.


    From then on, Li Fan became even diligent in his cultivation, spending most of his day practicing the Heart-Clearing Mantra.


    Another month passed like this, and Li Fan finally received the message sent by Manager Zhao’s people.


    The wind disaster in the Cloud Sea hadpletely disappeared, and it was nearly time for the fleet to sail again!


    Three dayster. Liuli Ind Wharf.


    The boats on Liuli Ind were slightlyrger than the second form of Tai Yan Boat, stretching two to three hundred meters long.


    More than a dozenrge boats were lined up and anchored on the sea surface, giving a spectacr sight.


    Due to the wind disaster, the fleet had been suspended for a long time. Therefore, quite a lot of materials that Liuli Ind had to turn in were in arrears.


    The Ind Master ordered the full dispatch of the fleet this time.


    This was an extraordinary spectacle. In the past, for safety reasons, only one or two fleets would set sail at the same time.


    The dock was filled with gawking inhabitants.


    If they saw someone they recognized on the boat, they would wave enthusiastically.


    With Manager Zhao’s people, Li Fan boarded a sea boat named “Cang Yuan”.


    Among the crew, many, like Li Fan, were going to sea for the first time. Their faces were filled with excitement, and their eyes were filled with the hope of striking it rich overnight.


    For the seasoned sailors, it was quite the opposite.


    Not only was there no excitement, but they had sorrowful faces and continuousints: “I don’t know what got into the Ind Master, arranging such a test. The boat team with the least gains from this voyage will be deemed unqualified and stripped of the eligibility to go to sea in the future! What are we going to do?”


    “Oh, don’t mention it. It’s all because of the wind disaster. I heard from someone in private that in the south, Coral Ind had its Ind Protection Array shattered, and the entire ind was leveled. Because of this, the items they need to turn in fell onto our Liuli Ind.”


    “What’s this all about? How are we going to live in the future?” “It is said to be temporary. We only need to make up what is owed.”


    Everyone sighed with sorrow.


    “Look at how pathetic you are! Why not think positively? Doesn’t the first ce get a reward? The proceeds obtained have increased from 30% to 50%!”


    “Fifty percent! What kind of concept is that! If we can get that, we don’t need to go to sea for the rest of our lives!”


    “Boss, don’t dream anymore. You keep talking about the first ce, but you know how lousy our fishing skills are from past excursions where we barelypleted the fishing task.”


    “Yeah, in my opinion, this is ourst voyage!”


    “We might as well not go back at all, it would be carefree to be pirates!”


    It was evident that the crew had a good rtionship with the man. After hearing his scolding, they weren’t scared, but instead yfully jeered.


    Hearing all the nonsense from the crew, the man wasn’t in a hurry.


    Instead, he put his hands on his hips, with the appearance of having a scheme.


    “What is it, boss, you got an idea?” The crew members knew the man well, and upon seeing him like this, they started asking.


    With a proud attitude, the man said, “Don’t worry, there’s a capable person on our boat. He will make sure we all return fully loaded.” With that, he pointed to Li Fan who was standing behind him.


    “Him?”


    “He looks clean and tidy, has he ever gone to sea before?”


    All crew members looked over, felt somewhat disappointed, and shook their heads indicating disbelief.


    “You bunch of blind men, who can’t recognize a dignitary! This gentleman is a talent specially invited by Manager Zhao, who will soon take over our boat! Every one of you, be respectful!” The man fiercely lectured them, looking quite angry.


    Upon hearing the man’s words, there was uproar among the crew of Cang Yuan.


    The bronze-skinned man turned around to look at Li Fan, revealing a sly smile of a sessful plot..
