Brilliant sunlight filled the world before him. A single glance at that radiance left his whole body feeling warm, dispelling the dampness and chill of the wind and rain.
Fang Yun slowly opened his eyes wide. The sun hung high in the sky, which shone as clear as a gemstone. The azure sea glittered, seagulls flew overhead, and fish occasionally leaped from the water. Everything was peaceful and serene. Compared with the Inner Sea, this place seemed like a paradise beyond the mortal world.
"Fish?"
Fang Yun's thoughts instantly returned to their normal course. He took a closer look and froze.
This was a self-contained world some dozen li across. Everywhere he looked, silver Literary Heart Fish swam through the sea. By a rough estimate, there were at least ten thousand Literary Heart Fish within sight!
What about the fish he could not see yet?
This was no Typhoon Eye-it was practically a fishpond!
Fang Yun suppressed his excitement and delight and turned to survey his surroundings. His Dragon Boat had stopped on the surface of the sea, and behind him was a great opening. Beyond it, black winds spun, making him dizzy just to look at them.
Thin mist marked the boundaries of this stretch of sea. Clearly, the typhoon lay beyond that mist.
In this world, there was only one boat and one person!
"Off we go!"
Fang Yun gripped the dragon horns, brimming with vigor.
Whoosh...
The Dragon Boat sped across the sea like a flying arrow, heading toward the center.
Fang Yun did not even glance at the Literary Heart Fish under five feet long near the edges, continually working out his plans.
*For efficiency, I'll find that superior Silver-tongued Literary Heart Fish first! If I see any Literary Heart Fish over five feet long along
