"You're absolutely right, Brother Yan. I couldn't ask for more!"
Chen Lin readily agreed to High Person Yunhai's proposal to cooperate.
Although the man was mysterious and might once have harbored designs on him, his cultivation was now higher than Chen Lin's, and he knew more about the White Bone Holy Ship. Escaping was the immediate priority, so cooperating with him offered more benefits than drawbacks.
Still, Chen Lin could not take everything he said at face value. He would have to keep his guard up.
As the two spoke, more cultivators appeared around the island, along with quite a few strangely shaped members of other races.
That was hardly surprising.
As a sage lord dao domain, this place was sustained by powerful rule force and could draw people in from the various nearby planes. The Southern Star Realm and Northern Star Realm alone were home to countless races, so any sort of creature might appear.
According to High Person Yunhai, however, the White Bone Holy Ship only targeted beings whose spiritual intelligence had fully awakened. Low-level monster beasts and the like would not be selected.
Suddenly, a streak of escapist light shot over and landed nearby.
It was a handsome man dressed in crimson robes, with a Carefree Cap on his head and an extraordinary bearing.
After landing, he looked at High Person Yunhai and smiled. "You certainly arrived early, Fellow Daoist Yan. It looks like you have a very good chance of boarding this time."
High Person Yunhai smiled as well. "Isn't your immortal cave quite close to here, Fellow Daoist Gu? Why have you only just arrived? Could you have been so lost in the tender embrace of women that you forgot all about the White Bone Holy Ship?"
The crimson-robed man laughed heartily at the teasing.
