Chapter 838 The smell of the sea(1/2)
On the edge of the sea cliff, after Ma Hongjun tried the power of his third soul skill, he left the deep sea canyon where marine life gathered.
If it's correct, that sea area should be the Devil's Strait that no one dared to easily set foot in, as Village Chief Hailuo mentioned.
Of course, this is talking about the deep sea area of Devil's Strait, that is, the area he traversed in a straight line, and the shallow sea area is naturally not included.
In the ocean canyon hundreds of meters deep, the water is sparkling and the scenery is magnificent and charming, like a dreamy ocean garden, in which countless marine creatures live, including some powerful sea soul beasts.
Although those sea soul beasts are still okay for high-level sea soul masters to occasionally venture into this strait and obtain soul rings, most sea soul masters are scattered and their numbers are not as large as land soul masters. This means that
As a result, almost no fishermen can venture into such deep waters.
After all, coastal fishermen, like most civilians in inland areas, are ordinary people without soul power. Naturally, they dare not easily set foot in areas where sea soul beasts are infested.
Although civilians are not necessarily ordinary people, such as Flanders and Ma Hongjun, as well as the four major affiliated clans abandoned by Haotian Sect, etc.
Although these people are all soul masters, and some are even famous experts and legends in the soul master world, many soul masters are actually just civilians. Even if they have their own forces or forces they are loyal to, if they do not have a title, they will still be like ordinary people.
They are the same as civilians, but they are just civilians in terms of status.
For example, a knight, even if it is the lowest title among nobles, even if the knight is just a white-ringed soul master, he will no longer be a commoner.
There is also Ma Hongjun's Lingguang Marquis. The moment he was granted the title of marquis by Emperor Xueye, he was completely separated from his status as a commoner.
Otherwise, even if he becomes a titled Douluo in the future, if he does not have a title, he will still be a commoner.
Although at that time, he would have countless forces begging to give him a title, such as Dugu Bo. After becoming a worshiper of the Tiandou royal family, he naturally received the title given by Emperor Xueye, and the Dugu family became the capital of the Tiandou empire.
A new noble family in the family.
Another example is Tai Long, the guy who missed Shui Bing'er and was beaten by his whole family by Ma Hongjun. Although the Li clan had some assets in Tiandou City and a fairly small mansion, they did not have a noble title and did not accept Xue Ye.
The emperor and other nobles in the city recruited and wooed him, so that guy Tai Lung was actually born as a commoner, which is why he was able to enter Lanba Academy.
Apart from this, the only exception is Liu Qingxuan, who was forced into Lanba Academy by Tang Yuehua. After all, that guy used the back door of Tang Yuehua and Liu Erlong, so it cannot be considered normal.
…
Most of the day passed, somewhere in the port of Hanhai City and the surrounding uninhabited coastal forest, as the green vortex that suddenly appeared dissipated, Ma Hongjun, who had left the Devil's Strait, finally returned here again.
"Chongming, I'm back, come out!"
Ma Hongjun said, as the soul bone attached to his right leg flashed slightly, and as the blue vortex that appeared a hundred meters away rotated and dissipated, Ma Hongjun disappeared from the place again, and then walked out of the blue vortex.
However, at this moment, accompanied by the sound of fluttering wings, a dense stream of green light flew up as the Chongming Bird flapped its wings, and suddenly shot towards Ma Hongjun like raindrops.
"Hey, little thief, watch your move!"
Ma Hongjun smiled helplessly, and cooperated with the ghost shadow to control the crane and capture the dragon, instantly turning into afterimages. While moving around in the coastal forest, he caught all the green balls thrown by the Chongming Bird at him and piled them up.
in front of me.
"Chongming, you are so childish!"
After catching the last green ball, Ma Hongjun poked it up with his free hand. With a popping sound, he raised his head and the refreshing and sweet coconut water suddenly poured into his mouth.
"Hmph, I need you to take care of it!"
Chongming Bird Heart said it was just too boring, and then he was stunned by Ma Hongjun's skillful operation of piercing the coconut with one finger.
"Huh? How do you know this thing is drinkable?"
"Gululu!"
"Ah, it smells so good!"
After sucking up the coconut juice in the coconut in his hand, Ma Hongjun threw away the coconut shell and said indifferently, "Is there any problem? If I don't even know this, how can I go to the sea to find a suitable sea soul beast?"
"Okay, have you replenished your soul ring? What kind of sea soul beast's soul ring have you replenished?"
Chong Mingniao was right when he thought about it. If Ma Hongjun knew nothing about sea soul beasts, he wouldn't be able to go directly into the sea to find sea soul beasts.
Since he knows something about sea soul beasts, it doesn't seem surprising that he knows these coconut fruits can be drunk.
Ma Hongjun put away the pile of coconuts piled in front of him and said with a smile, "To make it up, my third soul ring comes from a 3800-year-old sea soul beast, the bird-tailed mantis shrimp."
"Three thousand eight hundred years?"
The Chongming Bird flapped its small wings with sparse feathers and said in a deep voice, "A 3,800-year-old sea soul beast has taken you so long? Although you said you could just find a suitable sea soul beast to replace it.
That’s fine, but don’t you think it’s too casual?”
"Three thousand and eight hundred years ago. With your current strength, even the Wind Demon Wolf feels disgusted by it. What do you think? If I had known this, my aunt should have taken you to the Blue Silver Forest. It won't take a few days anyway.
.”
"Chongli, tell my aunt honestly, did you not pay attention when you went into the sea and let the seawater pour into your brain?"
"You just lost your mind!"
Ma Hongjun twitched the corner of his mouth, retorted, and said angrily, "Do you think I'm the kind of person who just makes do with things?"
Chong Mingniao squinted at Ma Hongjun's head with a pair of phoenix eyes for a moment, nodded seriously and said, "It didn't look like it before, but it does look a little bit like this now. Did you get any stimulation in the killing city?"
Ma Hongjun smiled helplessly and said indifferently, "No, are you bored by yourself, and now you finally see someone to talk to? So you keep beeping?"
"You only heard what I said about three thousand eight hundred years. Why didn't you ask me what kind of sea soul beast the Bird Tail Mantis Shrimp is?"
"What sea soul beast?"
Chongmingniao said indifferently, "Isn't it just a 3,800-year-old sea shrimp? Although my aunt has never seen it, our aunt has seen the river shrimp there. How different can it be?"
Ma Hongjun sneered, "Of course I don't like ordinary sea shrimps, but this bird-tailed mantis shrimp is different. It is a sea soul beast that can compete with top soul beasts such as the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear and the Titan Giant Ape. It is His body is too small, otherwise he would definitely be one of the top overlords in this sea."
"No way? No way?"
The Chongming bird fluttered its wings and circled around Ma Hongjun, making a strange sound and saying, "It's just a sea shrimp, Chongli, are you not trying to show off your dignity and deliberately bragging in front of my aunt?"
"Ah!"
Ma Hongjun sneered and said, "Since you don't believe it, how about this? You transfer your soul power throughout your body to protect yourself. Don't resist. I'll let you personally feel the power of my third soul skill."
"First of all, my third soul ring has not been completely refined yet, so its year is still 3800 years, and I will suppress the soul power to a level similar to this year, and I will not impose any additional requirements on it. How about the increase? Do you dare?"
"real?"
Chongmingniao's little eyes flickered, and he said dubiously, "Then the bird-tailed mantis shrimp is really as strong as you say?"
Ma Hongjun glanced sideways at Chongmingniao and said indifferently, "I'm just asking you if you dare to give it a try?"
Chong Mingniao also looked sideways at Ma Hongjun and said crisply, "Tch, my aunt doesn't know you yet? You have said so, and nine times out of ten, it is definitely true. My aunt will not be fooled by you, hum!"
Ma Hongjun smiled and said, "As long as you know, let's go, let's get out of here first."
"Uh-huh!"
Chongmingniao straightened his little head, fluttered his wings and got into Ma Hongjun's arms, and said crisply, "Are you finally going back, Chongli?"
"No, let's go to Hanhai College first. It won't be too late to go back after a while." Ma Hongjun said and walked towards the direction of Hanhai City.
"Hanhai College?"
Chongmingniao asked in surprise, "What are you doing there?"
Ma Hongjun said, "Read a book and treat you to seafood."
"Reading a book?"
Chong Mingniao asked in confusion, "Did you really have seawater poured into your head? If you don't go back, why are you reading a book?"
"There must be something wrong, otherwise why would I be reading?"
Ma Hongjun followed the ghostly shadow, and his whole body seemed like an erratic ghost. As the successive shadows flickered and disappeared, in just a few moments, he left the coastal forest where the Chongming Bird was hiding.
"Although I have some understanding of sea soul beasts, I don't know much about them. When I came back, it was because I ran away to other places without knowing the direction on the sea, which is why I was delayed for so long."
As Ma Hongjun hurried on, he used his spiritual consciousness to come into Chongmingniao's mind and roughly told it his experiences during this period.
"Ah, don't come in!"
The faint fiery red shadow that appeared in his mind almost made Chongmingniao's jaw drop.
"Ah ah ah, my aunt is not clean anymore. Chong Li, what kind of skill do you have? Why did you come directly into my body? Did you get my aunt's consent?"
Looking at the gray sea of consciousness of the Chongming Bird, and the phantom of the Chongming Bird's soul body that was as colorful as starlight, Ma Hongjun twitched the corner of his mouth and said with a smile, "You are talking about this, I don't know what kind of skill it is, I just I feel that with my current mental strength, I can bring my spiritual consciousness to your mind, so I tried to do so."
"Is this possible? How strong must your mental power be now?"
Looking at Ma Hongjun's spiritual consciousness, which is qualitatively different from its own soul body, the Chongming Bird's colorful soul body flaps its hazy wings with a wingspan of several feet, and looks at Ma Hongjun who is walking in its sea of consciousness with surprise and uncertainty.
Lingshi snorted coldly, "Get out quickly, get out quickly. Without my aunt's consent, you are not allowed to forcefully enter my body next time."
"What a fast speed!"
Ma Hongjun twitched the corner of his mouth and said indifferently, "What does it mean to forcefully enter your body? Can you please see clearly? You are a bird, how can I forcefully enter your body?"
"You immoral dead bird, do you have a driving license? If you don't agree with me, you will drive like crazy."
Chongmingniao snorted coldly, "What kind of bird follows who? So some people should stop bragging about my aunt. It really hurts to stand and talk. Please promise me first. If you come in again next time, you have to ask your aunt first."
consent."
"Okay, okay, can't I promise you?"
Ma Hongjun smiled helplessly, "I just thought it was possible, so I tried it, and I didn't expect that it could actually descend into your sea of consciousness."
