The battle began immediately, Ye Yu faced the Wolf Thief Leader, with a strength of level eighty-two, Tang San and the others faced five hundred men, it was very stressful, but through teamwork, strategy, they broke through one by one.
In the end, Tang San used the Tang Sect's Fourth Hidden Weapon, One Thousand and One Nights, to kill hundreds of Wolf Thieves, the battle quickly ended in victory, and the Wolf Thieves were completely annihilated.
Bai Shenxiang got injured, which was actually good for her.
When Bai Shenxiang got injured, Ye Yu did not give her treatment immediately, Bai Shenxiang was very strong, she bandaged herself without crying out in pain.
Although Bai Shenxiang had never suffered much hardship, she was still determined to grow up on her own.
Ye Yu used his First Soul Skill on Bai Shenxiang, and Bai Shenxiang healed.
Ye Yu and the others plundered the Wolf Thieves' money, these Wolf Thieves had no idea how many villages they had pillaged, the total money amounted to ten thousand Gold Soul Coins.
"Hmm? What is this…"
Ye Yu noticed a spot on a Wolf Thief's corpse's thigh, where the opening wasn't bleeding but emitting a faint blue light.
Tang San and the others walked over, exchanging looks: "We really got lucky, didn't we?"
Tang San said: "This Wolf Thief surprisingly possessed a Soul Bone, but he didn't use it, fearing his companions would find out, and he died before he had a chance to use it under the Tang Sect's Fourth Hidden Weapon."
Dai Mubai said: "Brother Yu, why don't you absorb this Right Leg Soul Bone?"
Ye Yu shook his head: "I already have a Right Leg Bone, this one suits you better."
Tang San nodded: "Yes, I also have the Blue Silver Emperor's Right Leg Bone, this Soul Bone's skill should weaken the opponent's physical attack or increase one's own speed or all attributes, it's very useful. I noticed him during the battle, his strength was the strongest."
Ma Hongjun said: "This is definitely suitable for close combat types, although it can be useful for Boss Yu, it's clearly not fitting of Boss Yu's status, as Boss Yu has External Soul Bones, all around one hundred thousand years. Since both Boss Yu and Third Brother have Right Leg Bones, then you should absorb it."
"Alright."
Dai Mubai wasn't pretentious, he took the blue Soul Bone, pressed it against his right leg, sat cross-legged and began to absorb.
Two hours passed, Dai Mubai woke up with a face full of uncontrollable excitement.
Ma Hongjun curiously asked: "How is it?"
"This Soul Bone granted me the ability of bloodlust, this Soul Bone is called Bloodlust Berserk Hurricane Right Leg Bone, I feel my body has become a lot lighter. Using the Soul Bone skill, I instantly enter a berserk state, with a one hundred percent increase in attack and defense, and a one hundred percent increase in speed. I'm just not sure if I can stay clear-headed while using it."
Ye Yu said: "Then let's not use it for now, just in case you become confused after using it and it backfires. Wait until you have the opportunity to obtain a Head Soul Bone to enhance your Spiritual Power, then you can control the bloodlust berserk."
"Hmm, I understand."
Ye Yu and the others returned to their original spot, Tang San retracted the Vast Sea Qiankun Shield, and Xiao Wu and the others' figures appeared.
Seeing the blood on Tang San and the others except for Ye Yu, Xiao Wu worriedly said: "Third Brother, are you hurt?"
Tang San shook his head: "No, we're fine, this is the enemy's blood."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
Ye Yu and the others continued on their way, arriving at Hanhai City, passing through this city would lead to the sea.
After Tang San and the others found a place to wash off, they headed to the auction house.
After all, being near the sea, the auction house would surely have things suitable for sea use.
Entering the auction house, Ye Yu and the others sat in the last row.
At that moment, the auction began, the host called out loudly: "The auction begins, let me introduce the first item to everyone, it's a Soul-guiding Device, most suitable for use in nearby sea areas, known as the Conqueror of the Seas, the Dragon Abyss Boat!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Yu thought to himself: "Could this be the protagonist's halo, whatever is needed comes to them."
The auction staff lifted the red cloth on the tray, revealing an odd item, a small boat, like a model. The bow had a dragon shape, and the stern was shaped like a fish's tail, with four fish fin-like wings on each side of the hull. The hull was entirely white, as if made of jade. Energy waves were emanating from the hull, indicating it could enlarge.
The auctioneer introduced: "This Soul-guiding Device is an ancient Liuchuan relic, activated by Soul Power to reveal its original form, with a true length of fifteen meters and width of eight meters, it can accommodate fifteen to eighteen people. At sea, it can not only sail but also dive into the water, with a maximum diving depth of three hundred meters. With it, one need not fear stormy seas, as it can dive underwater when faced with high winds and waves. It's very practical, and its entire body is white and transparent, allowing one to see any angle of the sea from within the boat. So, don't miss it, it's extremely useful. This Dragon Abyss Boat, not for three or four thousand, not for one or two thousand, just for 998! Just for 998! You heard right! Just 998! Take the Dragon Abyss Boat home!"
Upon hearing this price, Ye Yu and the others were somewhat surprised that such a good thing, still handed down from ancient times, only cost 998 Gold Soul Coins?
However, when the auction started, it was very quiet, with no one bidding.
Although it's very nice, it's practically useless, for shallow sea areas, ordinary boats are sufficient. Good pleasure boats only cost eighty Gold Soul Coins, this Dragon Abyss Boat just offers diving, but it's unnecessary, as there are no big waves in shallow sea areas.
As for deep sea areas, they're very dangerous, with Soul Beasts starting at a millennium, and the Dragon Abyss Boat can't defend against them, no one would go to deep sea areas, that's asking for death.
Therefore, it's quite awkward, even at such a low price, no one wanted to buy it.
The auctioneer felt dejected, thinking it would go unsold again.
Just then, Ye Yu spoke: "998."
Upon hearing this, everyone in the auction house looked over, somewhat surprised, whispering: "He really has money with nowhere to spend."
"Yeah, while I could buy it too, there's no need."
The auctioneer breathed a sigh of relief, asking: "Anyone else going to bid higher? 998 going once, 998 going twice, 998 going three times. Sold!"
After the purchase, Ye Yu felt it was worth the price.
Ye Yu and the others didn't go to the sea immediately, instead decided to go to Hanhai Great Fighting Soul City first, where they'd encounter Sea Soul Masters, to see the prowess of Sea Soul Masters—know yourself and know your enemy, and you can win every battle.
Hanhai City, the first major city on the westernmost edge of the Tian Dou Empire, is a seaside city, a port city.
Walking in the city, the more they walked towards the back of the city, the more they could smell a faint salty smell that grew stronger.
Oscar asked: "What is that smell, it's strange."
A nearby passerby said kindly: "This is your first time in Hanhai City, right? What you're smelling is the scent of the sea. Hanhai City is close to the most beautiful sea in the west, where the sea breeze blows, the salty scent of the sea naturally gets carried."
Oscar and the others were enlightened, but Ma Hongjun's expression became a bit odd.
Oscar muttered: "So this is the smell of the sea."
Ma Hongjun leaned over, put a hand on Oscar's shoulder, and laughed: "The smell of the sea, I know it."
At the same time, he glanced at Dai Mubai and said with a laugh: "Brother Bai knows it too."
Dai Mubai glared at Ma Hongjun in mock anger, ready to act: "Fatty, you asking for a beating?"
Oscar scratched his head, totally puzzled, and asked: "Fatty, is it because you guys have been to the seaside before?"
Ma Hongjun sighed lightly: "Such a naive child."
Just then, a seaweed vendor nearby brightened up, thanking Ma Hongjun: "Thank you, young man. I've been trying to think of an advertising slogan, and hearing your words, I've found one."
Soon, the vendor's banner was up, reading: The taste of the sea, I know it, Boli Seaweed.
Ma Hongjun said: "Since it's like that, why not give us a few packs as thanks?"
"Of course, I can do that."
The vendor gave out seaweed, although Ye Yu and the others didn't particularly like it, Ma Hongjun enjoyed eating it pack after pack.
Dai Mubai said: "You're already so fat yet still eating, doubt you'll find a partner."
