Chapter 1470: Entering The Sea
On the Ghost Dragon Boat, Old Man Profound Firmament and Dan Xiazi were standing shoulder-to-shoulder and observing the deadly currents of demonic fire rushing past their sides. They could not help but click their tongues in amazement.
The demonic fire was terrible, and the currents were horrific. However, neither could approach the Ghost Dragon Boat even a little. They were all blocked by the dark green flames surrounding the Anomaly. Moreover, the Ghost Dragon Boat was traversing through the raging sea so steadily it was like it was treading on smooth, flat ground.
“Tsk tsk... what a wonder!” Old Man Profound Firmament stuck his hand into the dark green flames of the Ghost Dragon Boat but felt no heat whatsoever. It was as cool and comfortable as a harmless breeze. He could not help but ask, “What do you think is the origin of the Ghost Dragon Boat, Danxia? Why is it immune to the demonic fire?”
“I do not know.” Danxia Zi replied expressionlessly, though there were rays of curiosity in his eyes. “Why don’t you ask Young Friend Ye about it?”
“Oh yeah, Joyless is the master of the Ghost Dragon Boat right now!”
Old Man Profound Firmament turned to face Ye Qing and Feng Qingyou. The duo were currently conversing with each other about something. “Joyless, you took control of the Ghost Dragon Boat, didn’t you? Would you happen to know the origin of the Ghost Dragon Boat?” Ye Qing shook his head smilingly. “I’m sorry to disappoint you, but I discovered that the Ghost Dragon Boat is immune to the demonic fire by pure coincidence. I took control of it by force, but I know nothing about its background or origin.”
“The Ghost Dragon Boat originated from the sea, and its story is fairly widespread. Frankly, you should know more about it than I do.”
“Haha...” Old Man Profound Firmament rolled his eyes. “If we know, we might have solved this crisis a long time ago.”
“Besides, there are countless Anomalies like the Ghost Dragon Boat in the sea. Most of them aren’t especially harmful either. Who has the time to observe all of them?”
“That’s true,” Ye Qing echoed in agreement. There were countless dangers and Anomalies in the sea. Anomalies and Strangers that were deadlier than the Ghost Dragon Boat were a dime a dozen. It was no wonder that the Ghost Dragon Boat, an Anomaly that one could survive so long as you knew about its rules and stuck to it, did not enter the purview of the bigshots of the Profound Alliance.
The reason Ye Qing hid the fact that he knew about the Ghost Dragon Boat’s origins was simple. One, it was because he didn’t want to make trouble for himself. Two, it was a precaution.
The Ghost Dragon Boat’s origin was tied to the heart of that god demon, and the heart of that god demon resided in his body right now. If Old Man Profound Firmament or Danxia Zi found out about this, they might covet it, or they might not. He didn’t want to put their integrity to the test.
