On the large ship in the distance, Ming Chengyun, Jiang Congyue, and others saw the blood spreading in the seawater and the sea gradually calming down.
They already knew that the battle was over.
They could see from afar Jiang Liu sitting cross-legged in mid-air, and the Fire-Winged Monkey guarding him, and they knew that the Deep Sea Dragon was dead.
By this time, after a series of emergency repairs, the holes in the ship had been fixed.
Fortunately, we had dismantled the ships on that outpost island of Blood Demon Island and obtained a lot of planks for future use.
Otherwise, Ming Chengyun and Jiang Congyue would have to take turns using their spiritual energy to freeze the huge hole.
Jiang Liu took a while to recover from the weakness he Divine Sense.
This holy technique is powerful, but it's still a bit of a stretch to use it before reaching the Saint Realm, especially when using mental power to attack.
Using it repeatedly like this could very likely lead to mental exhaustion.
Looking at the enormous dragon body floating on the sea, Jiang Liu also had a bit of a headache.
Letting it continue to drift on the sea, and then simply taking it away, will definitely attract more powerful deep-sea Exotic Beast.
After all, the smell of blood and the rich aura of vital energy are a deadly temptation for those powerful Exotic Beast.
Jiang Liu instructed Ming Chengyun to quickly bring people to handle the situation and then leave the area immediately.
Then, Jiang Liu swung his broadsword and, along the huge wound, cleaved the entire dragon in two.
Before long, the large ship arrived.
The people on the ship were amazed to see that such a huge dragon had been cut in two by the Jiang Liu.
However, without wasting any words, they quickly took out the wooden planks and pieced them together.
Before long, a simple wooden boat was completed. Then, the two sections of the dragon's body were lifted onto the boat and pulled forward by the large ship.
This time, even the men that Ming Chengyun and Jiang Congyue brought joined the rowing.
After all, relying solely on wind power would make the journey too slow.
Ming Chengyun and Jiang Congyue stood on the wooden boat, activating their spiritual energy to envelop the bottom of the boat.
This reduces the resistance of the wooden boat, allowing the larger ship to travel at a faster speed.
Jiang Liu and the Fire-Winged Monkey have returned to the deck of the large ship and continued to meditate and regulate their breathing.
Both Jiang Liu and the Fire-Winged Monkey expended a great deal of energy and mental strength in this battle, and they were only taking a short break to recover.
I need to recover properly now in order to cope with the upcoming battles.
Otherwise, if we encounter such a powerful deep-sea Exotic Beast again, it will be difficult to deal with.
Fortunately, they didn't encounter another powerful deep-sea Exotic Beast until they left the battle zone.
Now that we are safe for the time being, the next step is to deal with the corpse of the Deep Sea Dragon.
Ming Chengyun and Jiang Congyue were far more skilled than Jiang Liu in handling the corpses of these Exotic Beasts.
Even so, by the time the carcass of the Deep Sea Dragon was disposed of, it was already dawn the next day.
For the next few days, everyone on the ship drank dragon blood and ate dragon meat.
Jiang Liu also specially sealed some of his essence blood away, intending to take it back for Murong Yin, Feng Yue, and the others to use.
After several days of sailing, they encountered more and more ships along the way.
Although they found Jiang Liu's strangely shaped ship, which had no flags, a bit odd, no one dared to disturb it.
Of course, it's also possible that it sensed the aura emanating from the Fire-Winged Monkey and therefore dared not make any rash moves.
In the past few days, ever since the Fire-Winged Monkey started eating the flesh and blood of the Deep Sea Dragon, it seems to have gradually lost control of its aura.
And its red fur is increasingly turning golden.
Jiang Liu didn't know if this was a sign that the Fire-Winged Monkey wanted to advance to the next level.
He didn't know whether this phenomenon was good or bad.
It seems that since its inception, no one in the Exotic Beast Valley has ever used sacred beasts as tamed beasts.
Therefore, Jiang Liu had no idea whether he could control the Fire-Winged Monkey if it continued to advance in rank.
However, even as the Fire-Winged Monkey's aura continued to grow, Jiang Liu seemed not to sense any threat it posed to him.
I don't know why. Could it be because I've already advanced to the Peak Grandmaster level?
You should know that when I was at the Grandmaster level, I was anxious about the Fire-Winged Monkey's continued advancement.
Now that Fire-Winged Monkey is facing a situation where it might actually advance to the next level, I don't feel any danger at all?
Jiang Liu had no idea that when he advanced to the Peak Grandmaster level, he had left an imprint on the Fire-Winged Monkey's Divine Sense.
It has completely disappeared, merging entirely with the Fire-Winged Monkey's Divine Sense.
Now, even if it has only advanced to the Sacred Beast Realm, and even if it could advance further, it still wouldn't be able to break free from Jiang Liu's mental control over it.
However, the Fire-Winged Monkey's path to advancement doesn't seem to be going smoothly.
The transformation of its fur stopped when only one-third remained.
No matter how hard I tried after that, I couldn't make the transition.
The Fire-Winged Monkey also seemed quite irritable, frequently venting its frustration by diving deep into the sea.
Then catch one or two big fish and have Jiang Liu grill them for them.
Jiang Liu knew that the Fire-Winged Monkey had suffered a setback in its advancement, so he would comfort it from time to time to calm it down.
Over the past few days, the biggest beneficiaries have been the martial artists who followed them, and the boatmen have also benefited greatly.
Because of their low skill level, even drinking some soup would be more effective than years of hard training.
Moreover, they were given meat to eat, and if they could afford it, they would have received even more benefits.
Jiang Liu could sense that Ming Chengyun and Jiang Congyue's strength had become much more solid, but he didn't know if they could advance to the Peak Grandmaster.
The one who hasn't changed much is Jiang Liu himself.
It seems that all that dragon meat and blood is consumed is completely useless.
However, only Jiang Liu himself knew that 90% of the energy from the dragon blood and dragon flesh disappeared as soon as it entered his meridians.
That's why people feel that these things don't seem to have any effect on Jiang Liu.
Jiang Liu didn't even need to think to know where all that energy had gone.
They continued sailing at sea, on the seventh night after slaying the Deep Sea Dragon.
That night, under a bright moon and sparse stars, Jiang Liu continued to sit cross-legged on the deck, cultivating the Saintly Sky Art.
Suddenly, the warrior on guard at the mast issued a warning. "Watch out, a large number of ships are approaching directly ahead."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Liu immediately flew into the air and gazed into the distance.
There were at least twenty or thirty large ships in front of them, forming a procession and heading this way.
Jiang Liu was immediately taken aback. Such a large fleet in this sea area could only be found by people from Blood Demon Island.
And since they sent so many people along this route, they must be heading to Daqian. Could it be that they intend to formally invade Daqian?
At that moment, the Seven Stars Island fleet also spotted a large ship approaching them.
Nanmen Yao, Dongguo Men, Dongfang Wang, Shentu Jue, Yuwen Mie, who were gathered together, were drinking and chatting on the boat at the head of the boat.
This large ship belongs to the Nanmen family; they've gathered together simply to make their journey less boring.
They never expected that, after only a few days out, they would encounter a completely unfamiliar ship here.
Moreover, they also discovered that the ship seemed to be quite large.
Well, here comes their fun, doesn't it?
