Chapter 485: Beast Tide, Weird Fog, Skeleton Ship

Qin Xuan was puzzled.

From his perspective, shouldn't only sea beasts and Human Race Cultivators be able to threaten him here?

As for the winds, waves, and weaker sea beasts, they could be completely ignored.

Seeing Qin Xuan's confusion, Qian Qian began to explain to him.

"Young Master, you may not know, but before the location of the Kun Peng Nest was discovered, there were only sea beasts here. Cultivators rarely ventured here, so not many people came. However, because a Senior of my Sect once studied this area before entering the Kun Peng Nest, according to the records she left behind, there are three major dangers in the Wu Ji Sea."

"Three major dangers?"

Qin Xuan was momentarily stunned.

"Besides sea beasts and the Human Race, are there other dangers? These winds, waves, and lightning are no danger to me at all."

Qin Xuan was somewhat dismissive. In his opinion, apart from these, other dangers should be insignificant.

Qian Qian shook her head.

"Young Master, although these sea beasts are dangerous, they are ultimately limited within the entire Wu Ji Sea. As for the Human Race, before the Kun Peng Nest was discovered, hardly anyone would specially come here. Therefore, the Human Race and sea beasts do not belong to one of the three major dangers here."

"The only three true dangers in the entire Wu Ji Sea are three kinds."

At this point, Qian Qian's expression began to turn serious.

She then explained to Qin Xuan.

"The three major dangers of the Wu Ji Sea are the Beast Tide, the Eerie Mist, and the legendary skeleton ship."

Beast Tide? Qin Xuan was startled.

"Isn't that just the sea beasts here?"

Seeing Qin Xuan's confusion, Qian Qian shook her head.

"Young Master, although a Beast Tide is caused by sea beasts, the ordinary sea beasts in the Wu Ji Sea and the sea beasts in a Beast Tide are not the same concept."

Qian Qian explained in detail to Qin Xuan.

"Although the sea beasts in the Wu Ji Sea are powerful and highly intelligent, their numbers are not too large. Moreover, because these powerful sea beasts usually have mutual reservations and won't go too far. Therefore, under normal circumstances, although the Wu Ji Sea is dangerous, it can ultimately be traversed."

"Especially since there are Human Race powerhouses stationed here this time, there's naturally no need to worry about these sea beasts killing people without reason."

"But a Beast Tide is completely different."

At this point, Qian Qian swallowed, and the expression on her face also became serious.

"According to the records left by a Senior of my Sect, once a Beast Tide occurs, millions, tens of millions, or even more sea beasts appear simultaneously."

"These sea beasts seem to be controlled by something, madly surging towards the Wu Ji Sea. Their strength is not particularly strong, and can even be called weak, but their numbers are simply too vast. They even look more terrifying than a tidal wave, which is why it's called a Beast Tide."

"No matter how strong a Cultivator or how strong a sea beast, once caught in a Beast Tide, they will slowly be worn down to death. Therefore, a Beast Tide is one of the three major dangers in the Wu Ji Sea, and its danger level is extremely high. Once caught in it, there is almost no chance of survival."

"For example, even the Azure Winged Bat Dragon would only be able to flee if it encountered a Beast Tide."

Hearing this, Qin Xuan was also startled.

Just imagine, a sky-darkening surge of sea beasts charging madly—what a terrifying sight that would be?

No matter how strong you are, you can only kill a large number of nearby sea beasts, but the surrounding sea beasts will continuously replenish themselves. In this way, even if your Spiritual Qi is abundant, it will eventually be exhausted, and in the end, you will slowly be tortured to death.

Qin Xuan grimaced. He really hadn't imagined that a Beast Tide could be so terrifying.

"Under what circumstances does a Beast Tide occur?"

Qin Xuan asked with a serious expression.

He didn't want to encounter a Beast Tide as soon as he arrived here; once surrounded by a Beast Tide, there would truly be only a dead end.

"That's still unclear. I also tried to divine this matter, but according to the divination, I couldn't determine it. It's as if someone is interfering with this matter."

Qian Qian said helplessly.

Listening to Qian Qian's words, Qin Xuan's expression began to turn serious.

Interfering with divination is not something an ordinary Cultivator can do.

Only those powerhouses with extremely strong strength and cultivation might be able to do it, and the other party also needs to be proficient in the Dao of divination.

What kind of powerhouse would want to interfere?

Shaking his head, Qin Xuan couldn't figure it out.

But his heart had already begun to be vigilant.

The destructive power of the Beast Tide is so great, yet someone is specifically preventing divination.

It seems someone wants to use the Beast Tide for some purpose.

However, according to Qian Qian, a Beast Tide is uncontrollable. If this person is interfering like this, will a Beast Tide truly appear?

Qin Xuan frowned, truly unable to understand.

After a while, Qin Xuan looked at Qian Qian.

"Besides the Beast Tide, what does this Eerie Mist mean?"

"The so-called Eerie Mist, as the name suggests, is an extremely strange mist."

"In this Wu Ji Sea, at certain times, a black mist will rise. This mist looks harmless. But once a Cultivator or sea beast falls into the Eerie Mist, they will disappear without a trace, leaving no bones behind, in a very short time."

"Someone once tried to research the nature of this Eerie Mist, but in the end, they found nothing. After all, all the powerhouses who entered the Eerie Mist disappeared."

"Did the Senior of your Sect leave any records about the Eerie Mist?"

Qian Qian spread her hands and just shook her head.

"The Senior of my Sect only mentioned the Eerie Mist in the texts, but there was no description of the time or reason for the Eerie Mist's formation. I'm afraid even the Senior of my Sect didn't know this."

After all, everyone who entered the Eerie Mist disappeared, not even leaving bones behind. That Senior of the Sect wouldn't want to take risks for no reason.

Hearing this, Qin Xuan shook his head with some regret.

It seems this Eerie Mist is even more mysterious than he thought, and according to Qian Qian, there's no chance of survival after entering the Eerie Mist.

He must never get caught by this thing.

"Interesting, it doesn't sound like consumption, but rather like it connects to a certain world."

Just then, Han Ye, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke.

"Connecting to a certain world? How so?"

Qin Xuan strangely transmitted his voice to Han Ye.

"When someone disappears after being surrounded by this kind of mist, there are generally only two situations. One is that this mist can devour Cultivators, and all Cultivators who enter the Eerie Mist are devoured and absorbed by it. This usually happens because there are various messy things in the mist."

"But under normal circumstances, this kind of devouring always leaves traces; they wouldn't be eaten without a single speck left."

"The other is that those who enter the Eerie Mist enter another world. This mist is actually just a passage connecting two worlds."

"However, before figuring out the world that the Eerie Mist connects to, I don't recommend you rashly enter the Eerie Mist to investigate."

Han Ye said, and Qin Xuan was speechless.

Why would he enter the Eerie Mist to investigate for no reason?
