Douluo Continent: The World Shines with Stars

Chapter 68 Natural Disaster

As the pirates drew closer, the other two elders also spotted them, looking at Xu Mingxi and the First Elder with suspicion. Logically, they should have noticed them long ago.

The two could only laugh awkwardly. They couldn't very well say that they were watching the show. The two elders were also helpless. They exchanged a glance and then took action.

Starlight Bewitching.

The boy felt he only saw a few points of starlight before he fainted. When he regained consciousness, he was already tied up.

"Don't kill me! I'm not with them! I'm still useful! Please don't kill me!"

"Alright, I won't kill you. Calm down and talk properly."

Looking at the boy who was bound and writhing on the ground with snot and tears streaming down his face, Xu Mingxi was speechless. If he wanted to kill him, he would have done so long ago. Didn't he see the corpses of the pirates next to him?

Xu Mingxi had noticed this young boy who was out of place among the pirates before. The pirate leader didn't treat him like one of his own, which was why he spared his life.

"Please spare me, my lords! I am just an innocent person who was kidnapped by pirates. My martial spirit is my eyes, which are very useful for navigation."

The boy recounted how he went to sea with the merchant caravan and how he was kidnapped by pirates and brought to this island. He also told us about the two soul skills he possessed, for fear of being left behind.

Farsightedness and dynamic observation, those are two good soul skills. And the eye-related martial soul... why does it seem so familiar?

"Young man, your surname is Huo."

"How did you know, my benefactor? My name is Huo Quan. If you do not despise me, I am willing to serve you faithfully."

"Alright, alright, you can get on the ship now. Your job is just to clean the deck and keep an eye on the sea."

Xu Mingxi had no intention of continuing the conversation with the boy and went back to lie down on the grass to look at the stars.

Song Jiang followed Huo Quan to the pirate territory. Apart from a few boxes of gold soul coins and some food, they didn't get any real treasures. Although Xu Mingxi didn't expect to get soul bones like the protagonist by just fighting a bandit.

The group rested on the island for two days before setting sail again. Xu Mingxi took out the Shark Tooth again, and this time there was a chattering sixteen-year-old boy on board, which added a bit of fun.

After stretching his body on land, Xu Mingxi entered a meditative state again. He had originally wanted to take charge of some lookout work, but the three elders had taken over that task, so he only needed to focus on his cultivation.

Currently, apart from one elder injecting soul power into the Shark Tooth and another elder guarding the watchtower, the remaining elder has entered a state of cultivation with Xu Mingxi, taking turns constantly.

Those who follow Xu Mingxi in cultivation will receive his special care. The essence of moonlight that is drawn down will be continuously injected into his body through the Star Power Fusion Method. Even the two Soul Douluo elders who are old and have exhausted their potential can feel themselves making continuous progress.

Huo Quan's eyes shone with admiration as he watched the dazzling starlight streaming down from the sky and into the cabin.

"Uncle Song, the young master is truly amazing."

"That's right. You're lucky to have met Young Master Xu. As long as you seize this opportunity, you'll surely become a great man."

Huo Quan's talent is quite good. At sixteen years old, he has already reached level twenty-two. Even if he doesn't become a titled Douluo in the future, he still has a chance to become a Soul Douluo.

"Alright, kid, have you finished cleaning the deck? Stop chatting here and get to work."

"Yes."

Huo Quan was startled and quickly picked up the mop that was placed next to him. His Eye Martial Soul would definitely be a treasure in an ordinary sailing team.

However, this team has three Soul Douluos and even one Title Douluo, with a wide range of perception. Huo Quan seems somewhat dispensable. He has to prove his worth in order to stay on the ship, even if it's just doing small cleaning tasks.

...The unconventional Xu Mingxi started writing in his diary again in the cabin.

"On the seventy-eighth day at sea, the weather was gloomy and I was extremely annoyed. My soul power had been cultivated to level eighty-four. Life on the high seas was really too boring. If I hadn't felt the imprint in my spiritual sea becoming more and more active, I would have gone crazy."

Unexpectedly, Huo Quan's parents were from Seagod Island. After being expelled from the island for not awakening their innate soul power, they actually gave birth to him, a little genius with innate level six soul power.

The Vast Ocean Universe Cover is still in the secret vault of the Heavenly Dou royal family. Although it is their national treasure, there may really be a chance for it to be taken away in the future.

If we actually get it, we can let Mingguang try it out. Anyway, Poseidon only cares about talent and doesn't care about compatibility.

Suddenly I really want to…

knock knock knock.

Xu Mingxi's door was knocked on and then immediately pushed open. He instinctively closed the diary and put it into his storage soul tool, then looked at Huo Quan who ran in.

"Don't you know how to knock before coming in?"

"Young Master Xu, something terrible has happened! You must go out and see!"

Xu Mingxi's expression changed, and she disappeared from the room. Although Huo Quan was not yet an adult, Soul Masters are precocious, and given his extensive experience, his rashness must mean that something serious had really happened.

As soon as he stepped out of the cabin, the drizzling raindrops fell on Xu Mingxi's face. He looked around and saw no sign of the sea spirit beast attack he had imagined. Could it be that Huo Quan really wanted to die?

However, when he saw the Grand Elder and the others gathered around the ship's wheel, their faces all looking grim, he knew that Huo Quan was probably not exaggerating.

"Young Master Xu."

"Young Master Xu."

"Mingxi, you're here."

When Xu Mingxi arrived, the others consciously made way for him to walk in front of the Miao farmer standing in the center of the crowd.

"Young Master Xu, your arrival is no exaggeration; a truly massive storm is brewing."

"Don't rush, tell me in detail what exactly is going on."

"Yes, Young Master Xu, look over there."

Xu Mingxi looked in the direction the Miao farmer pointed and saw dark clouds gathering on the horizon. They were like a surging black tide, constantly flowing in all directions and dyeing the entire sky black.

The light drizzle began to intensify, accompanied by several loud rumbling sounds as it fell. In the distance, dark clouds churned and surged, seemingly containing boundless power.

"Young Master Xu, based on my experience over the past few decades, this is just the prelude to a major storm."

Xu Mingxi didn't know if what the Miao farmer said was true or false, but the weather was indeed not good. It was better to believe it than not to believe it.

He immediately ordered the Shark Tooth to move forward at full speed and get away from this area of ​​water. At the same time, the two Soul Douluo elders entered the power room together and injected their soul power to maximize the soul guidance shield of the Shark Tooth.

Xu Mingxi and the Grand Elder stood together on the observation platform, looking at the distant sky and paying attention to the changes in the sea weather and waves, ready to take action at any time.
