June 25th, noon, Du Yi Hotel.
Chen Chuan invited a group of old acquaintances and old classmates to eat here. Wei Chang'an and his team, Feng Xiaoqi , Luo Kaiyuan , Senior Brother Ren, and Lin Xiaodi all arrived.
Although he hadn't seen everyone for a long time, he usually kept in touch by phone. After a few words, the atmosphere quickly warmed up. Before long, the ordered dishes were served one after another.
Feng Xiaoqi picked up his chopsticks and said to Luo Kaiyuan next to him, "Don't you feel like something is missing this time without Wu Xuechang and Wei Dong ?"
Luo Kaiyuan agreed. In the past, with these two around, he always felt that the food tasted especially good. There was a look of anticipation in his eyes: "Wei Dong has been studying in Wuyi for so long, I wonder how much stronger he is than before."
Feng Xiaoqi muttered, "He's probably left us behind..."
Their levels used to be similar, but Wei Dong was good at Iron Body Training and could always last until the end. His potential was indeed higher, which allowed him to stand out and eventually be admitted to Central City Wuyi.
Having obtained more resources in Central City, the improvement in his level must be very fast.
Luo Kaiyuan looked very serious. He said, "Xiaoqi, when we go to Central City, we must catch up as soon as possible."
Feng Xiaoqi nodded repeatedly.It would be fine if there was no hope of moving up, but in their class, they were the most outstanding students besides Chen Chuan . The academy teachers believed that they had the potential to reach higher limits, and they themselves had not given up and had been working hard to train.
But for them now, Yang Zhi could provide too little. In the peripheral cities, few people can break through to the Third Limit by themselves. Only when they reach Central City can they find a way forward.
Across from them, Wei Chang'an was chatting with Chen Chuan .
"Last time, junior, you told us not to go to Central City first, so we didn't. We took the opportunity to resolve the remaining entanglements. I wonder how it is there now?"
Chen Chuan said, "It was resolved a few days ago."
Cai Si asked from the side, "Junior, what exactly happened? Can't Central City handle it?"
Others also looked over, equally curious about this question.
People who have never been to Central City have a filter for it. Even though they have heard Chen Chuan say a lot about it, they really can't imagine what kind of event could influence the entire Central City.
Chen Chuan said, "According to the official statement, the Linax Federation was conducting illegal biological experiments at sea, which led to a large biological tide pouring into Central City. Some mercenary groups took the opportunity to cause chaos, which is suspected to have been instigated by the Linax Federation behind the scenes, causing the entire city to be under martial law for several days.
During that time, Central City conducted a strict investigation of foreign personnel, and anyone found to be suspicious would be arrested immediately according to temporary regulations, so it was not a good choice to go there at that time."
Everyone was enlightened, but then they looked at each other. Chen Chuan "s use of the term "official statement' clearly meant that there were other hidden facts. However, they also understood that regardless of whether Chen Chuan knew it or not, these things were not suitable to pursue to the end.
Cai Si asked, "Is it okay now?"
Chen Chuan nodded lightly. Everyone present was a seed with potential, and entering Central City meant gaining fertile soil for growth. As that world gets closer and closer to this world, every strength worth cultivating is valuable.
Gao Ming suggested that he should support those who come from Yang Zhi as much as possible, and he agreed with this. However, he was about to set off for the Outer Ocean recently, and specific arrangements would have to wait until he returned.
After the meal, he finalized the subsequent contact details with everyone, then separated from them and returned home.
After entering his room, he took out a map of the Outer Ocean he had brought from Central City and began to look at it.
According to the information Mr. Zhuan passed on to him, the fissure existed on a place called Radiant Mist Island. According to the normal voyage, it would take about seven to ten days to get there.
It is now the end of June, so excluding some extra time consumption, he has one month of cultivation time.
The current airships are faster, but are more influenced by climate and airflow. Moreover, he checked and found that there is no fixed flight route there, and he would have to transfer halfway, so he finally decided to take a ferry there.
He had already asked the attendant to book a ticket for him a few days ago, and the departure date is on the 28th, which is three days later.
Originally, Little Aunt heard that he was on vacation for three months and said that if he had time, he should visit his eldest aunt.
Because his eldest aunt's family lives relatively far away, and the whole family is in the army, communication is very inconvenient. In the past, they could only send a little something during the New Year, but now it seems that he can only find an opportunity when he has time in the future.
In addition to going to the fissure for cultivation, he has many things to do.
To break through to a higher realm, in addition to the hard conditions of spirit and body, one's own Internal energy skills must also keep up.
He needs to make full use of this time to deeply study his own Internal energy and create his own unique Heart Qi.
Since this thing needs to be combined with Spiritual Power, it cannot be taught by outsiders, but only obtained through one's own training.
Now that he has rested for a while, the next two months will be a period of self-cultivation.
Three days later, he took Zhao Ming , said goodbye to Little Aunt "s family, took a special car, and after more than ten hours of driving, came to Distant View Port again.
This time, since the trip to the sea was mainly for self-cultivation and was said to be a sea trip, he did not plan to bring the special car's escort personnel, and after arriving at the port, he asked them to return to the Processing Bureau to stand by.
It was exactly nine o'clock in the morning. In the bright sunshine, he walked towards the boarding bridge with Zhao Ming beside him, carrying a suitcase containing his personal belongings.
He booked a first-class cabin this time, so he had priority boarding qualification.
After showing the ticket, the security personnel immediately stepped aside, and a crew member helped him untie the barrier rope and a dedicated waiter came up to help him carry the suitcase to his cabin.
Nowadays, most of the cruise ship business on the Outer Ocean is under the Sea Dragon Company and the Oceanic Development Group, but due to the restrictions of the Great Shun Government, there is still room for other cruise ship companies to survive, and he specifically avoided these two companies when booking tickets this time.
Mainly because his identity is relatively sensitive, these two companies will definitely pay attention to him as soon as possible, which will make it inconvenient for him to act.
After putting his things away, he took a walk around and was satisfied. There was an independent living area, a living room, a dining room, a small kitchen, and a private observation deck outside, equipped with exclusive service staff. There was also a training room he owned.
There is actually a public training ground on the ship, which is larger and occupies almost an entire deck. There will also be martial combat gambling competitions on the ship at night, but he has no interest in that.
After putting things away, he changed his clothes and went to the training room for daily cultivation. At noon, he went to the restaurant for a meal and came back to continue.
In the evening, the cruise ship finally set sail, splitting through the deep blue waves under the reflection of the sunset in the sky, heading towards the Outer Ocean.
For the next several days, Chen Chuan , in addition to daily training and studying Heart Qi, completely relaxed at other times, admiring the scenery on the sea surface in his spare time, tasting the food, and watching various programs on the cruise ship.
Eight days later, the cruise ship arrived at Flourishing Luo Island Port.
Flourishing Luo Island is a famous tourist island. The locals worship a goddess named Ahena , who is said to have created the surrounding sea area's life and suppress the sea monsters who are trying to break through to the sea surface day and night.
The locals hold a grand sacrificial ritual every month, but with the rise of tourism, it has basically become a song and dance performance.
Radiant Mist Island, where Chen Chuan is going, is not too far away, but there is no direct route. He needs to find a ferry to take him there.
After disembarking, he inquired and found out that it would take about half a day to get there. Because it is a volcanic island with few residents, and there have been frequent earthquakes in recent years, few people go there. Only the islanders come here every half a month to purchase goods. The person who was asked told him that he might have to wait until the next time the islanders come.
However, only three days have passed since the last purchase, so if he wants to wait, he may have to wait about ten days, which is too long.
He thought about it. Someone must be able to take him there, but he is unfamiliar with the place, so he directly approached the security officer of the port town, gave him some money, and asked him to help him find someone on the island to send him there.
After receiving the money, the security officer patted his chest and promised to arrange it within three days.
In this case, Chen Chuan simply found a hotel here to stay in.
In fact, as a tourist island, the scenery of Flourishing Luo Island is very good. It is now July, and hibiscus flowers are blooming everywhere on the island. The white beaches are full of tourists, and white sails dot the azure sea.
There are many unique delicacies on the island, such as raw fish marinated in coconut milk and lime juice, grilled shrimp and grilled pork, and fresh tropical fruits. He tried all the ones he could try, and also bought some local handicrafts. In addition to keeping some as souvenirs, he prepared to take the rest back as gifts.
He didn't bring much this time. In addition to the Snow Emperor Blade and a change of clothes, he only brought a few Wansheng Consortium gold tickets, but even on this island, there are Wansheng Consortium gold exchange points, so he doesn't have to worry too much about spending.
After waiting for two days, the security officer received news that he had found a suitable person to take him to Radiant Mist Island.
