The jasper-like sea water kept hitting the hull of the huge sea ship.

The sea breeze howls.

Heavenly Gift Fleet were arranged in a wild goose shape, heading straight towards the depths of the Jade Sea.

At this time, there were far fewer people on the deck, and only some sailors were still on watch.

Lin Hui The skilled man was bold and still stood on the side of the ship, looking at the sea in the distance.

While looking out, he was also experiencing the changes in the surrounding environment, and at the same time he was practicing simultaneously.

Like him, there are Xia Si and the newly added Su Yaping.

The three of them stood together, occasionally attracting attention and salutes from the sailors going up and down.

Because they have been watching like this for at least three hours.

"Three of you, we are about to enter the enclosed area Sea Area. It is better for you three to enter the cabin and hide for a while. Our people also have to enter the cabin immediately and block the external entrances and exits." The captain came out of the cabin and tried to persuade Lin Hui and the three of them.

The captain of the ship they were on was a very strong black man.

I don't know if he was born so dark or if he was tanned outside. His skin color is almost a little whiter than black charcoal.

He looks to be in his early thirties, has a short short haircut, wears a thick dark brown leather jacket and leather trousers, and has two scimitars, one long and one short, hanging on his waist.

As soon as you get close to it, it is different from other sailors. It automatically emits a thick unknown incense.

The rest of the sailors mostly had fishy stench mixed with sweat odor.

"Closed Sea Area? Captain Nong Zhuo, can you tell us what's going on?" Lin Hui said first.

If he doesn't say anything, neither Su Yaping nor Xia Si will want to speak.

"Is it your first time to go to sea? Well, there is still about half an hour before the Sea Area is closed. Let me tell you about it." The captain exhaled and took out a black metal Smoking Pipe from his waist bag. He rubbed it with one hand, and a little spark ignited to light the cigarette.

He took a deep breath and blew out the smoke ring.

"This Jade Sea, the offshore sea is relatively safe. At most, we encounter some sea monsters. We have a sea-protection flag made by Moon Tower, which is painted with something that sea monsters don't like. It can ensure that the fleet will basically not be attacked when it sails. This is not bad."

"But the danger of the Jade Sea actually comes not from sea monsters, but from the extreme natural environment."

"How to say?" Lin Hui became interested.

This was the first time he left land. This Jade Sea was huge and vast. It looked as green as jade from the outside and was extremely beautiful. He unconsciously wanted to know more about it.

"I'll tell you one by one." The black captain shook out the cigarette ashes and let them be blown over the side of the ship by the sea breeze.

"The most common thing in the sealed Sea Area deep in the Jade Sea is highly toxic acid rain. This is also the area we are about to enter. Within the sealed Sea Area, such highly toxic rain may fall every half a day. Once touched by this rainwater, humans and animals will have skin ulcers, unable to breathe, and then suffocated and paralyzed, unable to move, until it completely turns into thick water."

"Can the internal force resist it?" Lin Hui asked curiously.

"It can't be stopped." Su Yaping on the side said, "I have gone to sea to test it, and the internal force cannot stop it. Only Void Force can stop it, but it can't stop it for long. This poisonous rain seems to have not only ordinary toxins mixed in it, but also some unusual ingredients."

"This guest is right. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come to persuade the three of you." The black captain nodded in agreement. "Toxic acid rain is the first danger. There will be a second danger later, temperature."

"Temperature. Fortunately, I have encountered this before." Su Yaping nodded to show that he knew.

"It seems that this customer is very experienced. I want to explain it to you first. Federation uses rings as the unit to calculate the temperature. The normal body temperature of our human body is determined to be 8 to 10 rings, which is the normal range. And this is what we usually use to measure the temperature."

The captain took a small black box that looked like a radio from an approaching sailor.

There is a round pointer dial on the surface of the box, with a circle of red digital scales intricately engraved on it, and the units are all rings.

"This is a thermometer that can test all temperatures from -20 to 100 degrees Celsius." The captain introduced, "And one of the dangers we will encounter soon is that the temperature will quickly rise to over 90 degrees Celsius within an hour."

"."

"."

Except for Xia Si who didn't know what the concept was, Lin Hui and Su Yaping were all silent.

Lin Hui quickly converted and calculated the temperature unit in his mind.

"It climbed above 350 degrees in about two hours."

He didn't believe it, it was a bit too exaggerated.

"You can tell by the look in this guy's eyes that you don't believe it. It doesn't matter. If the three of you think you can hold on for a while, you can try to resist. If it doesn't work, you can go into the cabin and hide." The black captain said helplessly.

"Okay, I'll give it a try." Lin Hui decided to experience it for himself.

He now has endless internal strength, and his physique has reached a height that he cannot even estimate because of Body Tempering. It is just right for him to test his limits.

A strong person should have no blind spots in all directions.

Seeing that the three men could not be persuaded, the black captain sighed and turned around and left.

Time keeps passing.

Outside the ship is the unchanging jasper-colored sea.

The sea surface rose and fell, and from time to time it slapped the hull of the ship hard, causing vibrations.

Phew.

Suddenly Lin Hui's eyes flashed and he looked far ahead and to the right.

On the sea there, there was a blue human figure with a big black fish on its feet, and it quickly passed around the fleet.

The humanoid only wears simple blue three-point clothing. Judging from the body curve, it should be female.

This man has flying blue hair, a strong figure, and a pair of seahorse-like shark fins on his ears.

The human figure flew quickly through the mist and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Jade Sea also has a humanoid group?" Lin Hui asked curiously.

"Yes, there are sea tribes living in the Jade Sea, but they are all offshore tribes. They don't dare to go to the deep sea. Some of them have deep trade relations with cities in Federation." Su Yaping understood more and explained.

"That's it." Lin Hui recalled that he had seen a Wanhua Sect leader who lived in a water tank.

In the following time, some large Sea fish would occasionally appear next to the fleet.

But slowly, the surrounding temperature began to rise, and Sea fish also disappeared.

More and more water mist began to rise from the sea.

The fog rose into the sky and turned the surrounding area into a dense mass, making it difficult to see even one's fingers. It was much thicker than the previous fog.

"Teacher, I smell a strange smell. It's very fragrant." Xia Si suddenly said from the side.

"Which direction?" Lin Hui smelled nothing. He looked at Su Yaping, who also shook his head slightly.

"Over there!" Xia Si pointed towards the sky in the distance behind the ship.

Lin Hui looked along the direction.

The thick fog blocked the view so much that nothing could be seen.

He was about to run Typhoon Swordplay to try to disperse some of it, but suddenly he sensed something and his pupils shrank.

Phew!

The fog behind the ship faded slightly under the influence of an unknown force.

You can vaguely see, in the distant sky, a vague female figure wearing a bright red dress. Judging from this distance, her body length is at least a thousand meters.

This female figure was flying at high speed from a high altitude in the distance, and the red skirt behind her spread into a red Yunxia that almost covered most of the sky, moving with it.

Although the female figure is large, the contrast is still huge compared to the endless red skirt that spreads behind her and covers most of the sky.

Lin Hui If it weren't for Xia Si's fingers, he might not have been able to spot the female figure leading the way for the first time. Instead, he would have only seen the large red Yunxia spreading across the sky for the first time.

"The temperature is still rising!" Su Yaping said solemnly. He was also shocked by what he just discovered.

"The sky has completely turned red, what on earth is that!?" Lin Hui looked at the sky at this time.

After the huge female figure passed by, like the curtain of a movie, the prelude to the heat slowly began.

The red sky was soon obscured by fog again. But judging from the still blurry red color, the sky had not returned to its previous gray color.

"Now I understand a little bit why Fog God Sect is so widespread and banned repeatedly." Su Yaping sighed.

". Same feeling." Lin Hui nodded.

The sky was dyed red after being swept by the skirt of the female figure. Who can see this?

Lin Hui suddenly thought that even a terrifying and powerful person like Mist Man could only stay in the city until now. This shows that there must be more dangerous and terrifying existences in this world than Mist Man.

The three of them continued to wait.

As time went by, there were gradually no more people on the deck, and only the three of them were left.

Previously, people from the Lin Mansion and Qingfeng Sect came to question them. After confirming that they planned to stay on the deck, they had no choice but to hide in the cabin.

The sky is still red, but from the bright red before, it has slowly faded into a light red.

The temperature is getting higher and higher.

Lin Hui gradually held his breath.

Because the air has been completely filled with high-temperature water vapor and cannot absorb any oxygen.

He simply stopped breathing.

He had never held his breath before, but instinctively, he felt that he no longer needed oxygen very much.

Just like the instinct to blink, cry, stretch out your hands and feet.

The situation was indeed as he expected.

After no longer breathing, the body spontaneously absorbs a steady stream of oxygen-like breath from the back of the brain to make up for the body's consumption.

"Wind Disaster Affinity?" Lin Hui sensed the intimacy in the breath and determined what was helping him to hold his breath. It was his new special organ connected to Wind Disaster - his hair.

He looked at Xia Si and Su Yaping. The two were very close to each other. It was easy to see that they were just holding their breath and did not receive any additional breath compensation. They were simply using their body's breath reserves to resist.

The temperature is getting higher and higher.

An unexpected situation occurred for Lin Hui.

The clothes of the three people began to catch fire, and an open flame appeared.

Lin Hui was speechless and used his internal force to suppress the fire, isolating and extinguishing the flames on his body. Combustion requires the combination of multiple factors to occur. As long as the oxygen in it is eliminated, it will be extinguished.

But as a result, the appearance of the three of them all looked a bit burnt and a little embarrassed.

At this time, the outside world has completely turned into red mist, and nothing can be seen.

During the boring wait, Lin Hui simply closed his eyes and practiced to pass the time.

Xia Si and Su Yaping followed suit, and the three of them stopped talking for a while.
