Chapter 1346 Raging Serpent
"Ah… is that so…" Huang Xiao Li immediately looked disappointed by the refusal.
However, she quickly recovered, "It\'s okay, I perfectly understand your situation. I was being inconsiderate with my offer just now, and I apologize for it."
"No, it\'s fine." Tian Yang smiled.
Sometime later.
"The ship to the Desolate Continent will depart soon, we should start making our way there." Huang Chen said after noticing the time.
"You\'re boarding as well, right?" Huang Xiao Li looked at Tian Yang.
"Yes."
Having settled the bill for the meal, the Huang Family and Tian Yang proceeded to the ship by the docks, but not before the Huang Family reunited with Dong Zhou and the other bodyguards.
"I\'ve found another bodyguard, as you desired," Dong Zhou stated before introducing the Spirit Lord he had hired for the task.
Huang Chen nodded and introduced his family to his new bodyguard, as well as his task. Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn
"If you have any problems, you will consult with Dong Zhou first. If he cannot handle it, he will consult me. Unless there is an emergency, you will not approach me or my family, do I make myself clear?"
"Yes, sir!"
Upon reaching the docks, Tian Yang observed a lengthy queue of individuals endeavoring to board the colossal ship that blocked most of the ocean view from his perspective.
The ship in Tian Yang\'s memories was at least several times bigger than the one Yuan boarded during his trial.
"Which floor are you staying on?" Huang Xiao Li inquired as they waited in line.
"I\'m on the 2nd floor towards the rear of the ship," he said.
"We\'re on the 7th floor towards the middle of the ship, so we\'re quite far from each other. How unfortunate." Huang Xiao Li sighed.
"With a month until we reach the Desolate Continent, we\'ll likely cross paths many times," Tian Yang remarked with a smile.
"I\'m looking forward to it!" Huang Xiao Li smiled back.
Even though they\'ve only just met today, Huang Xiao Li already saw Tian Yang as a friend of sorts.
Tian Yang separated from the Huang Family shortly after boarding the ship.
Upon entering his cramped and confined room, which only accommodated a wooden bed lacking a mattress, Tian Yang seated himself and commenced his cultivation.
Several hours later, his cultivation was interrupted by an announcement from the ship\'s captain, "Welcome to the Raging Serpent, esteemed guests. I am your captain until we arrive at your destination, Jia Jianhong. It will take us approximately a month to reach the Desolate Continent. Of course, it could take a little longer or shorter depending on the sea\'s conditions and how often we are attacked by the sea demons."
The captain already expected the ship to be attacked by sea demons since that was part of the routine for any ship that traveled to and from the Desolate Continent.
"There\'s also no need to worry about the sea demons, as our experts will get rid of them before you even see one, so you can enjoy yourselves until we arrive at our destination."
"With that being said, we\'ll begin our journey shortly."
Half an hour later, the ship left the docks and began sailing towards the Desolate Continent.
Nothing notable occurred during the first week of their sail. A few sea demons attempted to attack the ship, but they were dealt with by the Spirit Lords working onboard before even reaching the ship.
During this time, Tian Yang spent every second cultivating.
\'I have to get stronger so that I can avenge Meng Lili!\'
Shortly after entering the Inner Court, Tian Yang uncovered the truth behind Meng Lili\'s death. This revelation drove him to pursue strength intensely and relentlessly to seek justice for Meng Lili, earning him the nickname \'Suicidal Maniac\' among his fellow disciples.
Yet, fueled by this insatiable thirst for strength, Tian Yang\'s cultivation saw advancements that surpassed the dreams of most ordinary disciples. However, this perilous method constantly placed his life in jeopardy.
Because of his recklessness, Elder Sun, who ended up as his mentor of sorts, would frequently reprimand him for him. Of course, that didn\'t change his behavior, or else he wouldn\'t have decided to train at the Desolate Continent.
On the eighth day of his journey, Tian Yang was forced to exit his cultivation by a commotion that was occurring outside his room.
Typically, there were constant noises outside his room owing to the thin walls, but this time, the disturbance was not of the ordinary kind.
"A Leviathan has appeared! We\'re all going to die!" "Ahhhh! Why did it have to appear now when it hasn\'t made an appearance for over a decade now!"
"We\'re screwed! We\'re all screwed!" Tian Yang left his room and went to the deck to see the situation for himself.
Indeed, the ship had come to a complete stop to confront the Leviathan. Given that the ship\'s speed was far surpassed by the Leviathan, attempting to outrun it was futile, leaving them with no choice but to engage in combat.
Over fifty Spirit Lords and three Spirit Kings were embroiled in combat with the Leviathan at the beginning. However, by the time Tian Yang arrived, half of the Spirit Lords and one of the Spirit Kings had succumbed to the Leviathan\'s onslaught.
Meanwhile, the Leviathan itself was as strong as a cultivator at the peak of Spirit King, hence the struggle.
One might question why the ship hadn\'t hired cultivators stronger than Spirit Kings as a precaution against the potential appearance of a Leviathan.
The answer was straightforward—money. Employing a Spirit Emperor would entail expenses a hundred times greater than hiring a Spirit King. Given the rarity of Leviathan appearances, with the last occurrence being a decade ago, it wouldn\'t be financially viable to engage a Spirit Emperor for every voyage, considering the low probability of encountering a Leviathan.
