Ye Mo woke up.

He tried to open his eyes, moved his fingers, and found that he was holding on to a broken board and lying on a cold, wet beach sand. His cheeks were covered with fine, wet gravel, which stung.

A gust of wind and waves blew, and the sea surface immediately stirred up waves. The cold sea water crashed over him one after another. The sea water with the fishy wind slapped his cheeks, and he smelled a bitter sea smell.

He felt as if his body had been smashed into pieces, his limbs were weak, and every part of him was sore. He didn't know how long he had been soaking on the beach before he woke up.

"Cough~!"

Ye Mo took a few mouthfuls of the salty and fishy sea water, coughed violently, and immediately felt a heartbreaking pain in his chest, like a fire.

He let go of the broken wooden board he was holding tightly in his hands. Feeling tired and sore, he pushed himself up and sat on the beach. The coarse cloth worn by a warrior was wet and clinging to his body, feeling cold and uncomfortable.

Ye Mo looked around blankly.

In front of him was an unfamiliar beach on the coast of Half Moon Bay, covered with white fine sand, with small shells and conches everywhere.

There was no one on the empty beach, and the silence was a bit eerie.

This is obviously an island. There seems to be a rolling hill in the center of the island, all covered with towering trees and deserted.

In the distance is the endless blue sea, the sky is blue and cloudless, the waves are calm, and a few seabirds are flying at low altitude, hunting for sea fish. It is getting late, and the golden afterglow of the setting sun casts a mysterious veil on the undulating sea.

"I should be on a large sea ship. Why did I pass out on this desert island...?"

Ye Mo shook his heavy head, trying to wake himself up and recall what happened before.

After a while, he recalled all the causes and consequences of his being on an isolated island.

He is the son of a civilian family in Wu Kingdom City. He is now eighteen years old and an ordinary warrior with no reputation. His father is an ordinary soldier in the Wu Kingdom Army and was killed in successive battles. After his father died, his mother also became ill from overwork.

Ended in depression.

Like many unknown warriors in the Wu Kingdom, Ye Mo's initial dream was a bit vulgar. He was looking forward to becoming a promising military general in the Wu Kingdom, buying a mansion in the royal city, and having fresh clothes every day.

Angry horse, if you can marry a beautiful girl, that would be wonderful.

However, achieving this dream is not easy.

The streets are full of ordinary warriors from the Wu Kingdom.

If you want to become a military general in the Wu Kingdom, you often need high-level martial arts, high-level exercises, and a large number of body-tempering herbs for cultivation to strengthen your body, energy, and blood. And these all require money, a lot of money.

A warrior who practices high-level martial arts can easily defeat several ordinary warriors.

However, Ye Mo had nothing.

He was just a warrior from a small family in King Wu's city. Not to mention good body-tempering herbs, he didn't even have a decent intermediate martial arts secret book.

The "Wave Cutting Jue" he practiced was just a low-level martial arts secret book.

Moreover, the power of the Wu Kingdom's court was controlled by the officials, dignitaries and wealthy families. Only their direct descendants had the opportunity to become the generals of the Wu Kingdom's court. Even the low-ranking generals in the army had long been promoted.

It was divided up by all the big and small aristocratic families.

A civilian martial artist like him has a very bleak future in the martial arts country.

Ye Mo's pitiful and vulgar dreams were all daydreams, and Yaoyao was hopeless. Dreams and cruel reality formed a huge gap, tearing his poor heart in half.

A month ago, a group of maritime merchants from the Donglai Kingdom came to the King of Wu Kingdom. These merchants hired a group of storytellers in the city to preach that there was a spiritual island in the East China Sea and a fairy village on the island. There were many fairy villages living in the fairy village.

Immortal cultivators. The pavilions in the fairy village are all made of jade, and there is also a panacea that can get rid of all diseases and make you immortal.

The storytellers exaggeratedly talked about the various benefits of those sea fairies.

"Legend has it that there is a fairy village on the Ling Island in the East China Sea. The fairy village is filled with clouds and mist all year round, and the spiritual peak reaches into the sky. From time to time, the immortals who live here shuttle through the clouds and mist, looming and difficult to find."

"As long as you go to sea with the merchants and find this fairy village on the sea, you will have the opportunity to worship the immortal cultivators in the fairy village as your teachers, become their disciples, and learn the great abilities of the immortals."

"Immortal disciples live in the Immortal Palace, practice magical powers, control flying swords, soar in the nine heavens, ride on spiritual cranes, and fly across the sea!"

"There are countless fairies as beautiful as flowers serving as their attendants. They can turn their hands to make clouds and make rain. They are beyond the reach of ordinary people. Even the royal family, high-ranking officials and wealthy families of the Wu Kingdom can only covet, envy and worship them.

.”

"Since ancient times, countless warriors have set sail to sea with lofty ideals. They braved the risk of being swallowed by strong winds and waves to find the fairy village on Lingdao. They just wanted to get a word of advice from the immortal and embarked on the road of cultivating immortality."

"Although it is very risky, there are many successful warriors. As long as you spend fifty taels of silver to buy a ship ticket from a merchant, take a sea ship to the East China Sea to find the fairy village, all these beautiful things are possible. Money counts

What the hell, finding Fairy Village is worth everything!"

Inspired by storytellers, many warriors with bleak prospects in the Wu Kingdom, including Ye Mo, were so excited that they wished they could fly to the fairy village of Lingdao in the East China Sea to worship the immortal as their teacher.

But in the end, there were not many warriors who dared to make up their mind to go to sea with the merchants.

There is an old saying in Wu State, "It is better to go up the mountain than to go down the river." There are strong winds and waves on the river, not to mention the vast sea. The waves in the East China Sea are high and the wind is strong, and it is said that there are terrifying sea beasts running rampant. Nine out of ten people who go out to sea cannot come back.

Going out to sea on a sea ship is no joke.

According to legend, there are many powerful sirens and monsters in the East China Sea. They often attack ships sailing on the sea, eat the flesh of the crew, and even swallow the whole ship together.

Like a kind of sea monster named "Mirage", it is huge in size and can turn over mountains and seas when it turns over. It can turn sea water into clouds and mist, forming an illusory spiritual island fairy village on the vast sea.

Ships from afar thought they had found the fairy village of Lingdao, so they headed here one after another.

What awaits them is the "mirage's" huge mouth that can swallow an entire sea ship.

These terrifying legends of the East China Sea Sirens have scared away many tempted warriors from going to the sea to seek immortals.

Ye Mo did not hesitate, and immediately decided to follow the merchants to the East China Sea to find immortals.

He knew very well that a young martial artist like himself did not have much of a future in King Wu's City. High-level martial arts and body-tempering herbs were expensive and he simply could not afford them.

If this continues, in the end, he will have no choice but to give up martial arts training, do some small business to make a living, find a wife and raise a child, and then live a mediocre life in the market.

This is not what he wants.

Even though Ye Mo is just an unknown warrior in Wu Kingdom, deep down in his heart, he still wants to stand out!

If you want a mansion, you must have a horse and a beautiful wife!

I want to spread my wings and fly high into the sky!

Do whatever you want without any restrictions!

There are so many wants!

Ye Mo is only eighteen years old, and he doesn't want to stay in King Wu's city and be an unknown warrior all his life.

He wants to change everything.

He would rather take risks and go to distant and unknown foreign lands to find a way out for his pitiful dreams.

Even if it is the extremely dangerous East China Sea, we will not hesitate!

Ye Chen knew that if he continued to live aimlessly in Wu Kingdom, his whole life would pass like this.

He gritted his teeth and sold the only valuable old house in his family. He got one hundred taels of silver and spent fifty taels of silver to buy a ship ticket from those maritime merchants.

He spent the remaining fifty taels to buy a good Qingfeng sword from the weapons shop in the royal city, and bought several packs of high-quality healing herbs from the herbal shop to prepare for going to sea.

Then Ye Mo boarded the merchant's giant ship.

This huge sea-going ship departed from the fishing port of Donglai Kingdom, carrying more than a thousand warriors with dreams from various countries in the Kyushu continent, and set out to sea to find the mysterious and ethereal spiritual island in the East China Sea.

The ship drifted on the vast East China Sea for a month.

Just last night, the warriors in the ship were still chatting and laughing, talking about how they would become apprentices and learn immortal skills after finding the Fairy Village on Lingdao.

Some people say that after learning the magic of immortality, they go back to the big country of Kyushu to become a protector of the country. They are so majestic that one person is inferior to ten thousand people. Others say that after becoming an immortal, they have to marry a fairy as their wife and concubine, and have a child.

A bunch of babies caused the warriors to burst into laughter.

The good times did not last long, but suddenly, dark clouds rolled in from the sky outside the ship, and there was lightning and thunder.

The entire sea with a radius of hundreds of miles seemed to be plunged into a dark purgatory.

The high-speed rotating storm in the distance formed a huge water column as high as a thousand feet, like a dragon drawing water, sucking in the huge sea ship.

The terrifying storm shattered the confidence of all the warriors on the ship.

Everyone on the ship was frightened, and an atmosphere of fear, helplessness, and despair enveloped the entire ship.

Ye Mo heard the sound of masts and decks exploding. They were lifted high by the storm and shattered in the air.

Huge sea ships are as fragile as tissue paper in the face of big storms, easily torn apart.

The warriors on the ship fell into the water one after another, and countless heart-rending cries for help rang out on the ship and on the sea. The thunder was rolling and the waves were surging. When the disaster was approaching, everyone struggled to survive.

Ye Mo only remembered that at the moment when the huge ship was torn apart by the storm, he jumped into the sea, swam desperately in the water to get away from the sinking ship, and hugged a broken wooden board on the sea in a blur, and then

Fainted.

After he woke up, he lay on the beach of this isolated island.

Ye Mo looked at the vast sea and was stunned for a while before shaking his head with a wry smile.

"What bad luck!"

"I spent all my savings and bought a boat ticket to follow the merchant ship to the East China Sea to look for the fairy village on the sea. Fortunately, the fairy was not found, the storm destroyed the ship in the sea, and I was washed up here.

Island."

"However, I actually floated to an island alive and was not directly drowned by the big waves. It can be regarded as a great blessing among misfortunes. That ship carried thousands of warriors from all over Kyushu, but I don't know how many people can be like that.
To be continued...
