Douluo: The blue phoenix cries loudly, and the wind whistles through the air

In front of the dock, boats of various sizes were moored.

Led by Yu Tianheng, the Shrek Six Monsters arrived at one of the large ships.

Previously, Tang San and Yu Tianheng had split up; Tang San went to find a major shipowner in the city, while Yu Tianheng contacted a captain at the dock.

Ship owners cherish their reputation and are unlikely to take risks easily, but the captains of these private boats do not share this mindset.

Building a large ship is very expensive, and if the funds cannot be recovered quickly, the captain will go bankrupt.

Comparatively speaking, captains who own private boats are more likely to take risks.

Just like in the original timeline, the Shrek Six Monsters still went after the Sea Demon.

Captain Haider's eyes lit up when he saw that they were all well-dressed, but he suppressed his excitement and greeted them warmly: "Young friend Yu, are these the friends you mentioned?"

Yu Tianheng bowed slightly and replied, "Captain Haider, you can discuss the cost of this voyage with Tang Yin."

To avoid revealing his identity and being recognized, Tang San continued to use an alias.

Of course, Captain Haider didn't care about any of that.

On the Sea Demon, Haider led Tang San and his group to the deck and introduced the advantages of the Sea Demon.

After a short while, Tang San interrupted, "Wait a minute, we have absolute confidence in your Sea Demon. Can we discuss the cost of this ocean voyage?"

The Sea Demon was still unloading seafood. Tang San had previously strolled around the seafood market and knew that these were all deep-sea catches.

In this way, the reliability of the Sea Demon can be determined.

If Captain Haider continues, and we fall into their rhythm, wouldn't we end up demanding exorbitant prices from them?
Captain Haider suddenly smiled, revealing the face of a cunning businessman, and said, "Young friend Yu told me that your budget is around ten thousand gold soul coins?"

“But you should be aware of the dangers of going to Poseidon Island! I’m not bragging, but apart from the Sea Demon, no one on this dock dares to accept your commission.”

"Ten thousand gold soul coins, to be honest, is not worth the risk for so many of our brothers."

Seeing his face, Tang San felt unusually relaxed.

A person who loves money and actively shows it is generally not malicious and will only do things for money.

Little did he know that this facade was something Haider was deliberately putting on.

Tang San responded, "You can take us to Seagod Island in an empty ship, and you can still fish on the return trip. It's just a matter of spending a little more time at sea, and you'll earn 10,000 gold soul coins for free, which is already a huge profit."

Haider shook his head: "Young man, you can't calculate it like that. To get to Poseidon Island, you have to pass through the Demon Whale Sea, and that place is no joke."

"I'm taking this job because I'm risking my life. If I succeed, I'll enjoy wealth and glory; if I fail, the ship will be destroyed and everyone will perish. I hope you can understand the risks involved. If you're willing to pay 12,000 gold soul coins, I'll take the job."

Tang San's lips twitched slightly.

He thought the other party would ask for an exorbitant price, but to his surprise, they only added two thousand gold soul coins.

Knowing this would happen, he wouldn't have wasted his breath. Instead, he took out twelve thousand gold soul coins from his soul tool and revealed his strength.

Haiderlang chuckled and said, "Open and spacious."

"However, the catch on the Sea Demon hasn't been unloaded yet. Why don't you young men wait for five days?"

"As for the commission fee, please keep it safe for now and pay me when you depart."

With the most important part of the plan completed, the Shrek Six Monsters won't mind waiting a few more days.

The two parties ultimately reached a commission agreement.

As Haider watched the Shrek Six Monsters depart, a glint of light flashed in his eyes.

They added two thousand gold soul coins without hesitation, clearly indicating that the other party was not short of money. From now on, once they reach the sea, they'll be lambs to the slaughter!

……

Inside the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire.

After some adjustments, Qian Gu Chang Kong and Chen Ping were able to adapt to the power of the Ice and Fire Spring and were able to delve into it for cultivation.

Seeing that they were alright, Wu Qi felt relieved and went deeper into the spring to search for the remains of the two dragon kings.

However, shallow spring water is completely different from deep spring water.

In deep springs, the point where two streams meet is not in the middle; if you are not careful, you may end up in extremely cold or hot water.

If he didn't go too deep, it would be fine, but if he went too deep, the power of the extremely cold and hot spring water could easily kill him.

Unlike Hurricane Canyon, once you're deep in the spring, it's impossible to judge how far you've dived.

For Qian Gu Chang Kong and his companion, unless they receive an assessment broadcast, they can only continue to delve deeper.

Seeing Wu Qi surface, Qian Gu Chang Kong couldn't help but ask, "Brother Wu, what's going on down there?"

Upon learning about the situation at the spring below, the two felt like they wanted to die.

Under intense pressure, time seemed to drag on. Who knew if they could complete the assessment on time?

Furthermore, the equilibrium point of the spring water below is not fixed, making the descent process extremely arduous.

Chen Ping suggested, "Brother Wu, should we use our Martial Soul True Body to enter?"

This is a good idea, but after unleashing the true form of one's martial soul, one's size also increases. Submerging in the spring water increases the surface area exposed to the extremely cold and hot water, making accidents more likely.

Wu Qi pondered for a moment and said, "There are still some days before the end of the assessment. We can only gradually adapt to the pressure of the spring water below and try to go deeper into it."

Just like ants moving house, as long as you are diligent, you can always complete the assessment within the specified time.

Moreover, there are additional rewards for the fifth test, and Wu Qi already has someone in mind to recommend.

If he can pass the assessment, he will definitely recommend Qian Gu Chang Kong. It's not because the two are the closest of friends, but because Feng Xiaotian has already passed the assessment.

Besides, the most talented player in the team is Qian Gu Chang Kong.

The performance in this assessment will determine the impression that Qian Gu Chang Kong makes in the eyes of the gods in the divine realm.

Although Wu Qi did not say it explicitly, he used his actions to spur the other party to progress.

Meanwhile, on the border between the two great empires.

Marshal Ge Long, a pillar of the Heaven Dou Empire, was arranged by Xue Qinghe to personally go to the front line and take command of the central army to ensure that the Heaven Dou Empire would remain invincible in the event of any friction that might occur.

In the central command tent, a general under Golong rushed in to report.

"Marshal, were the people challenging us at the front your orders?"

Goron looked up from the sand table, a puzzled expression on his face: "I have never issued any orders that would incite conflict. What is the situation at the front? Is someone acting on their own?"

The general exclaimed, "Marshal, this is troublesome! That 'challenging' squad at the front..."

Before he could finish speaking, a messenger rushed in to report: "Marshal, something terrible has happened! A conflict has broken out at the front."

The incident began when the Heavenly Dou Empire's challenge team used extremely offensive language, and several archers in the Star Luo Empire's army couldn't take it anymore and fired arrows.

Previously, although there had been some bloodshed between the two sides, no weapons had been used. Now, the conflict has escalated completely! (End of Chapter)
