A Small Island at Sea

Ma Feifei stared at the giant wave, his eyes filled with confusion. He hadn't done anything wrong, so why did this strange change happen all of a sudden? Did he somehow attract hatred?

Thinking of this, Ma Feifei released his divine sense to probe the seabed. What he saw shocked him. Hundreds of meters below the surface, the seabed was teeming with countless unknown marine creatures, each with a strange and bizarre shape, all of which Ma Feifei could not name.

Most importantly, they were all gathered around the Dragon Ball, each staring at Dragon Ball with seemingly greedy eyes.

"Could it be because of this Dragon Ball?" Ma Feifei wondered, frowning.

In the distance, many creatures continued to rush towards this place, including some enormous ones; it was they that stirred up this giant wave.

Ma Feifei checked their ranks and found that most of them were around the third rank of spirit beasts, while the larger ones that were pouncing towards them were around the fifth to sixth rank.

"If the marine life in the shallow sea is this strong, what will it be like in the deep sea?" Ma Feifei couldn't help but smack his lips and exclaim.

"Smack~"

As they were marveling at the sight, a giant wave crashed down on the dock, its force so great that the damaged dock would certainly not be able to withstand it.

"Buzz~"

Ma Feifei shot out an Innate Purple Qi, which transformed into a light shield.

"Bang~"

The giant waves crashed against the light shield with a powerful Tackle, and finally cascaded down the shield wall into the sea like a waterfall, making a 'splashing' sound.

"Stomp stomp stomp~"

The fishing rod in Ma Feifei's hand was hit by a tremendous force once again, this time even more fiercely than before. Ma Feifei had no choice but to use his left hand to stabilize it.

"This guy is really strong." Ma Feifei's divine sense had not yet withdrawn, so he could clearly sense everything on the seabed. At this moment, the Dragon Ball he was using for fishing had been Bite by a huge 'shark', which was desperately pulling backward, trying to bite the Dragon Ball off its fishing line.

This 'shark' is estimated to have reached the level of a sixth-tier spirit beast, making it a formidable force in this shallow water area. Among the hundreds of strange creatures around, it is the highest-level.

"Boom!"

The shark swung its tail violently, creating a wave of water, as it used all its strength to try and break the Dragon Ball.

Ma Feifei remained motionless, his eyes fixed intently on the 'shark's' every move, his left hand firmly gripping the fishing rod, ready to reel it in at any moment.

"Boom!"

The 'shark' whipped its tail again.

Ma Feifei narrowed his eyes, exerted force with his left hand, and the fishing rod was pulled up with a 'whoosh'.

Suddenly, the 'shark' underwater was pulled towards the surface by the Dragon Ball. However, the 'shark' was quite persistent and did not let go of the Dragon Ball, and was forcibly brought up.

"Whoosh~~"

The enormous 'shark' body was completely pulled out, and under the sunlight, its scales gleamed and were incredibly sharp.

"Got it!" Ma Feifei's face lit up with joy. With a flick of his right hand, the fish was absorbed into his grasp, ready to take this ' The Willing Take the Hook.

The shark seemed to sense the danger, constantly swinging its huge tail in the air, making a loud cracking sound as it struck the air. If it hit a person, there would be virtually no chance of survival.

"If you could bite it off, I wouldn't need to fish anymore; I could just go home and copy books," Ma Feifei said with a chuckle.

"Ma Feifei, it's been an hour." Yun Qingyang suddenly leaned close to Ma Feifei and said.

"Here, I'll give you six thousand. I'll rent it for two hours." Ma Feifei's spatial ring flashed, and a spatial bag flew towards Yun Qingyang.

At the same time, the 'shark' in the air suddenly released its mouth, and the Dragon Ball was spat out. The 'shark' propelled itself forward slightly by inertia before entering the sea.

"Thump~"

It splashed up countless waves.

"What a pity, just a little bit short." Some waves splashed on Ma Feifei's face. Ma Feifei wiped the water off his face and said regretfully.

Yun Qingyang took the spatial bag and looked inside. Seeing that the 'shark' hadn't been caught, he said to Ma Feifei, "Why don't you rent it for another hour? There's a discount for three hours."

Ma Feifei shook her head violently and said, "No, I'm afraid if I rent a math teacher, he might crawl up from underground and beat me to death."

"A math teacher?" Yun Qingyang looked bewildered.

Ma Feifei sighed, sensing the 'shark' fleeing into the depths of the sea, and remarked, "My Dragon Girl's intelligence is just like this 'shark,' rapidly sailing towards the ocean, farther and farther away."

"..."

The 'shark' ran away, as if it sensed the danger. Only the low-level marine creatures remained, occasionally circling the Dragon Ball that had fallen back to the seabed, but none dared to touch it or try to bite it off as before.

"It seems that those with low rank are also timid," Ma Feifei mused, observing the scene.

"Shopkeeper!" Ba Jiu's voice came from the side. When Ma Feifei turned his head, he saw Ba Jiu coming from afar and returning to the dock in the blink of an eye.

"Where did you go?" Ma Feifei asked curiously.

Ba Jiu, beaming with excitement, pointed a finger in the direction he had returned with his clenched fist and exclaimed, "Shopkeeper, I just went for a stroll in the deep sea and discovered a small island!"

"And then?" Ma Feifei asked, glancing at Ba Jiu's fist. He wasn't too surprised by Ba Jiu's discovery; this was still a coastal area, and encountering small islands was quite normal.

"There are many delicious fruits on the island." As he said this, Ba Jiu spread out his hands, revealing two green fruits in his palms.

The fruit looked somewhat like the small, green apples Ma Feifei had in his previous life, but Ma Feifei could sense the powerful energy contained within it. He just didn't know what the effects would be if he ate it.

"Could it be a blessed land?" Ma Feifei took the fruit, examined it in his hand, pondered for a moment, and then looked up to ask, "Can you still find that island now?"

"Yes, that's fine, it's not far from here," Ba Jiu replied excitedly.

"Lead the way, let's go take a look." Ma Feifei gave the order, casually reeling in his fishing rod. The Dragon Ball flew out of the seabed with a "poof" and returned to Ma Feifei's hand.

"Okay." Upon hearing this, Ba Jiu turned around excitedly, his body transforming into a streak of light and flying towards the depths of the sea. Ma Feifei used the Soaring Cloud Riding Mist, leading Yun Qingyang behind him.

After walking for about ten minutes, we finally saw a small island in front of us. The island was not big, about the size of three or four football fields, and was a relatively small island. There were many trees on the island, lush and green, and the ground was covered with unknown flowers and plants. When the wind blew, the petals were blown up and scattered into the sea.
