Congratulations on successfully breaking through to the third level of the Sea God's cultivation technique, granting you the ability to construct the Sea God's Palace!
"Uh, construct the Sea God's Palace? What kind of ability is this? And what's the use of this Sea God's Palace?" Ye Feng asked, confused.
As soon as he finished speaking, a block of text immediately appeared on the Sea God's Trident.
Sea God's Palace: The palace where the Sea God resides. It will emit Sea God's power to nourish all living beings in the sea. Additionally, it possesses the power to suppress evil spirits in the sea and protect marine peace...
"Uh, you said a lot, but why does it feel like there are no practical functions?" Ye Feng said speechlessly.
A place for the Sea God to reside? It's impossible for him to live in the sea every day! Secondly, suppressing sea spirits? What kind of ability is that?
Ye Feng couldn't understand it for a moment, so he didn't think much of it and immediately got up to wash himself.
Today, he was going to take Captain Zhou's boat to the rocky island sea area, so he arrived at the dock early to wait for Captain Zhou and his fleet.
While waiting, he also bought a kayak for himself. If Captain Zhou and his crew couldn't make it, he could proceed on his own in the kayak.
After waiting for a while longer, Captain Zhou and his crew finally arrived. They all appeared very enthusiastic upon seeing Ye Feng.
After some pleasantries, everyone helped move Ye Feng's kayak onto Captain Zhou's large fishing boat, and then they set off.
"Brother Ye, you really lost out by bidding for this rocky island sea area!"
"That's right! This rocky island sea area is very strange, and it's not easy to get there. I really don't know why you bid for this area!"
"Exactly, let's go take a look today, and if it's really not feasible, sell it quickly!"
The crew members on the boat came forward one after another to dissuade Ye Feng, but he only responded perfunctorily, as he didn't believe that the rocky island was truly that strange.
Captain Zhou's fishing boat was considered fast among ordinary fishing boats, with a speed of eighteen knots.
A knot is the speed of a ship at sea, and one knot is equal to one nautical mile per hour, which is about 1.85 kilometers per hour.
At this speed, it would take about half a day to reach the rocky island sea area.
As they sailed on the sea, time ticked by. Fortunately, there were no accidents today, and they sailed straight and unimpeded.
Since Ye Feng hadn't slept the night before, he felt a bit sleepy and went into the cabin to rest.
In the blink of an eye, half a day passed, and they finally arrived near the so-called rocky island sea area.
"Brother Ye Feng, hurry out and take a look, the rocky island sea area is just ahead!"
Ye Feng, who was resting in the fishing boat, suddenly heard Captain Zhou's voice and rushed out to check.
The next second, he saw an island a few kilometers away. It was large and covered with various vegetation.
And in front of the island, countless rocks stood tall, like ferocious guards protecting the island.
And these were all visible. More invisible submerged rocks and reefs lay at the bottom of the sea, and ships could be wrecked and people killed if they were not careful.
The weather at this time was very clear, but a patch of black clouds floated above the rocky island sea area, frighteningly black. A glance at it felt very oppressive.
Moreover, Ye Feng could feel the trident pattern between his eyebrows faintly flashing, as if signaling danger ahead.
"Is that the rocky island? It is indeed a bit strange!" Ye Feng muttered softly.
Captain Zhou nodded and said, "That's right, this is the rocky island sea area, and it's very strange! Do you still want to proceed?"
However, at that moment, a crew member suddenly shouted, "Captain, it's not good, a huge whirlpool has appeared ahead!"
"What? A whirlpool? Stop the ship quickly! Change course!" Captain Zhou's face turned pale with fright upon hearing about the whirlpool, and cold sweat broke out.
Ye Feng heard them and looked carefully, indeed seeing a whirlpool with a diameter of thirty to forty meters appearing a few hundred meters ahead.
"Hmph, I'd like to see how weird this rocky island sea area really is! Underwater detection!" With that, Ye Feng frowned and immediately activated his underwater detection ability.
The next moment, his heart was filled with shock, even terror.
Because beneath this seemingly calm sea surface, countless submerged rocks and reefs were hidden, their height just below the water's surface, making them difficult to detect.
Secondly, Ye Feng found that the depth ahead was terrifyingly deep; he couldn't see the bottom at a glance.
It should be noted that he had just broken through to the third level of the Sea God's cultivation technique today, and his detection range had increased from three hundred meters to five hundred meters. The fact that he couldn't see the bottom meant that the depth here exceeded five hundred meters.
Originally, a depth exceeding five hundred meters was not unusual, as the sea was vast, and places exceeding five hundred meters were everywhere.
However, Ye Feng and the others were only at a depth of nearly two hundred meters behind them, while the depth ahead suddenly exceeded five hundred meters, showing an almost cliff-like change. This was very strange.
In addition, Ye Feng felt the seawater churning and currents surging within, with whirlpools continuously appearing on the sea surface.
However, just as Ye Feng was shocked by these circumstances, a fierce wind suddenly arose, and huge waves were stirred up, continuously crashing against the fishing boat, terrifying everyone.
Immediately after, an even more terrifying scene appeared: a waterspout rose from the ground in front of everyone's eyes, reaching straight into the sky.
"Danger ahead, quickly, retreat!" Captain Zhou, seeing this, was filled with terror and repeatedly ordered the crew to retreat.
Fortunately, they were prepared and did not get too close, managing to retreat in time.
"Brother Ye Feng, I didn't lie to you! It's not that old brother won't take you, but this rocky island sea area is too terrifying, it's simply impossible to go!" Captain Zhou said.
Ye Feng nodded upon hearing this, "Yes, yes, I am already very grateful that Old Brother Zhou could bring me this far!"
"That's good then! Let's go back!" Captain Zhou said, relieved that Ye Feng was not angry.
However, Ye Feng shook his head and said, "Old Brother, help me launch the kayak into the water. I'll take a look around myself, you guys can go back!"
"What? Brother Ye, are you feverish?" Captain Zhou exclaimed in surprise, reaching out to touch Ye Feng's head.
Ye Feng shook his head, "I'm perfectly fine, don't worry!"
"Then why do you still want to go? My large fishing boat doesn't dare to go, and you want to go in a kayak? Isn't that seeking death?" Captain Zhou said angrily.
However, Ye Feng looked deeply at Captain Zhou and said earnestly, "Old Brother Zhou, I'm not a reckless person. I have my own ideas, please believe me..."
Seeing Ye Feng's serious expression, Captain Zhou, for some reason, eventually agreed. Perhaps this young man always gave him a feeling of being able to create miracles.
"Alright! Old brother, there are people on the boat, and every one of them has elders and children at home. Forgive me for not being able to risk their lives!" Captain Zhou said.
Ye Feng nodded, "Old Brother Zhou, I understand! I'm already very grateful for your help!"
"Yes, yes, but Old Brother Zhou can guarantee that he will wait for you nearby. If he doesn't see you appear, Old Brother Zhou will definitely not leave!" Captain Zhou said, patting his chest.
Ye Feng's face lit up with joy upon hearing this, "Good, thank you, Old Brother Zhou!"
With that, they helped Ye Feng launch the kayak into the water, and then Ye Feng paddled the kayak himself, heading alone towards the rocky island...
