Chapter 1439: Chapter 1439: Sea Magical Beasts, Crisis Descends! Chapter 1439: Chapter 1439: Sea Magical Beasts, Crisis Descends! After the big man finished speaking,

someone started tossing chunks of meat, large as small hills, into the sea.

An incense stick to burn later, beneath the sea vessel, five shadows as large as the ship itself were swiftly circling around it in the water.

Witnessing this scene, the big man’s eyes lit up with wild joy as he proclaimed loudly, “Here comes the big catch, five magical fishes at the Intermediate Stage of the Divine Master Realm! Fellows, if we take down these five, we can set sail for home. Then the clan will reward us handsomely with plenty of Mixed Spirit Stones!”

Upon hearing this, everyone’s eyes shone brightly.

At that moment, the dainty girl also approached, whispering to Ye Qiu Bai, “Big Brother Ye, when we go back, I’ll talk to father and ask him to give you more Mixed Spirit Stones. Otherwise, you’ll have far too few.”

Ye Qiu Bai chuckled softly and shook his head, “No need.”

The dainty girl wanted to say more but saw the big man approaching. He pulled her away, saying, “Miss, you shouldn’t be standing here; it’s too dangerous! Besides, with your status, how can you stand so close to him?”

Those who dissected the dead magical fishes and harvested them could be considered the lowest ranked and weakest individuals on the entire ship.

Ai Zhi couldn’t hide her displeasure, “Ai Song, you don’t need to worry about my affairs!”

Ai Song shook his head resolutely, “Miss, since you’ve come along, naturally I am responsible for your safety. This Ye has no strength, and since we don’t know exactly who he is, how can I possibly let you get close to such a person?”

“You!”

Before Ai Zhi could retort, Ai Song clapped his hands and commanded, “Everyone, get ready to move!”

Ai Zhi, looking at Ai Song’s retreating back, apologized to Ye Qiu Bai, “I’m sorry, Big Brother Ye.”

Ye Qiu Bai nodded indifferently, not minding the situation.

After all, there would be no further association with these matters later; such trivialities were not worth fussing over.

Upon Ai Song’s order, ten Divine Master Realm warriors stationed along the ship’s edge each took out a long spear, onto which a flexible rope was tied at the end.

Since they couldn’t fly, they could only stand at the edge of the ship to control and throw the spears.

Of course, they could control the weapons with their immortal aura, but it seemed that these flexible ropes also had their special uses.

Under Ye Qiu Bai’s observant eye, they could enhance the puncturing power and speed of the spears.

Just as one of the monstrous fish shadows approached, Ai Song’s eyes widened, and he seized the opportunity to roar, “Attack!”

As his word fell, ten Divine Master Realm warriors, along with Ai Song, simultaneously hurled their spears!

Clutching the ropes in their hands, the spears transformed into a rainbow arc that plunged into the sea!

A rowl!!!

The eleven spears appeared to pierce through the giant fish as a strange cry of pain erupted from beneath the water’s surface!

The massive shadow began to shake violently, with the sea surging and monstrous waves continuously battering against the ship. A regular ship would have been smashed to pieces by the unrelenting waves long ago!

Nevertheless, the ship couldn’t help but begin to sway from side to side.

Simultaneously, a small hill-like wave rose from the surface of the sea, and then a colossal black fish, as big as a hill, broke through the waves!

Ai Song and the other Divine Master Realm individuals simultaneously retracted their spears, and then, once again, jointly hurled their spears at the dark pupils of the fish!

The monstrous fish roared in fury, twisting its body to slap its enormous tail at the eleven spears.

Ai Song shouted, “Change the attack direction!”

The warriors all pulled on the ropes, and the spears that had been initially stabbing straight at the fish were withdrawn a bit, then surged upwards before diving straight down towards the fish’s head.

Puh-ch!

A sound pierced through flesh rang out.

With a sorrowful cry, the monstrous fish collapsed straight down.

The entire sea surface began to tremble violently!

Ai Song roared, “Don’t take this lightly, there are four more!”

No sooner had he spoken than the other four magical fish, as if aware of their companion’s death, burst forth from the sea in the four cardinal directions—east, south, west, and north—of the ship, surging towards it with overpowering force.

Ai Song didn’t need to give orders.

The one controlling the ship infused immortal aura into the ship’s control hub, and the ship was reactivated, its speed soaring as it broke through the encirclement of the four magical fish.

Then it circled around to the rear of one of the magical fish.

Allowing Ai Song and the others to slay another.

Those who controlled ships on the Qingming Continent also held extremely high status.

After all, the larger and more complex the design of the ship, and the higher its level, the more difficult it was to control.

This was somewhat akin to controlling a puppet.

And such individuals were commonly known as helmsmen on the Qingming Continent.

The remaining three were dealt with in the same manner.

Although there was no significant loss, this caused Ai Song and the other ten Divine Master Realm individuals to expend a large amount of immortal aura.

Gasping for breath, Ai Song said, “Alright, begin salvaging and dissecting! Be quick about it; we must leave this place and return to Yulin City as soon as possible.”

Now it was Ye Qiubai’s turn to act.

Ye Qiubai also picked up a huge fishing net, hauling one of the magical fish onto the ship.

However, as the magical fish were too large to be hauled up onto the ship all at once, they needed to be dissected on the spot, keeping the useful parts and discarding the useless ones.

Of course, some parts of the magical fish were quite special, such as the magic nucleus.

Once removed from the sea where the water attribute was exceedingly sparse, the magic nucleus would start to lose some of its power, which necessitated quick dissection and preservation in a special manner.

As Ye Qiubai used a dagger to dissect, Ai Song walked over and frowned, “Hurry up! Stop dawdling, or you can forget about your payment this time.”

Ye Qiubai said nothing but silently sped up his dissection.

Ai Zhi, who was nearby, saw this and walked over with anger on her face, looking at Ai Song and saying, “You know, you…”

Before she could finish,

Ye Qiubai was the first to look towards the rear of the ship.

Then came Ai Song and all the other Divine Master Realm individuals, followed by Ai Zhi.

Ai Song immediately bellowed, “Forget the other magical fish corpses, head back immediately!”

The helmsman also realized the gravity of the situation and acted at once.

Behind the ship loomed a shadow larger than the sum of the five previous magical fish, closing in swiftly!

However, the ship’s level was clearly not high enough, and the shadow was rapidly closing the distance between them.

Ai Song’s face was filled with horror, “This speed and presence… it’s likely at the Divine Emperor Realm.”

One Divine Master Realm individual cried out in alarm, “Didn’t they say there wouldn’t be any sea magical beasts from the Divine Emperor Realm appearing at this fishing spot?!”

Upon hearing this, many faces showed expressions of despair.

At sea around the perilous Qingming Continent, encountering an insoluble sea magical beast meant a 99% mortality rate!

Because one could not fly, and movement had to be via ship.

If the level of the ship wasn’t high enough, it was almost certain death.

And the current situation… had already met this criterion…
