Because the Sea of Death held many powerful and unfathomable forces, Chen Rui did not use spatial jumps to save time, lest he outsmart himself and make things worse. Instead, he followed Lanboster's suggestion and traveled by air.
With that giant sea chart, the Starshine encountered virtually no obstacles as it flew to the Miluo Sea Lanboster had mentioned.
The sea winds were fierce in this region, and the waves towered into the sky. The Starshine landed beside a small island. After entering the Miluo Sea, Chen Rui and Lanboster left the Starshine so they could sense the water elements.
"What an astonishing Disguise. It isn't merely an outward transformation—it is as though it has truly fused with the island itself. Even judging by the fluctuations of water elements in the air, I can only vaguely sense that something is amiss," Lanboster praised as he watched the Starshine merge with the island. "Had I not seen it with my own eyes, I would never have believed it. Perhaps only Moore, whose sensitivity to earth elements is unsurpassed, could discover the existence of this fortress."
Chen Rui nodded. The Starshine's Disguise was indeed exquisite; without their mental link, even he himself would have been unable to detect it. Just as Chen Rui was about to take out the Mandala, Lanboster had already removed the Water Ripple Crown from his head. A peculiar little boat appeared before them, wholly translucent and crystal-like in material, faintly radiating a beautiful blue glow.
"This is... the Azure Water Vessel." Chen Rui remembered it. Back when he had gone with the two Elemental Monarchs and his Dragon Emperor father-in-law to deal with the Holy Dragon Rodriguez in the underwater Land of Hatred, they had ridden this very vessel, transformed from the Water Origin Fragment.
