Free Web NovelChapter 2054: Chapter 2054: The Ghost Ship Recognizes Its Master! Finally Leaving! Monster Blocks the Way!
"This ship?"
Upon hearing Ming’s analysis, Mu Jinyu was taken aback and then frowned, saying, "Why would I want this broken ship?"
He felt that if this really was a matter of exchange, how could this ship compare to the Earth Emperor Bone Qi?
And if his Earth Emperor Bone Qi was forcibly taken, there was no need to even mention the worthiness of an exchange.
Ming said, "If you don’t want this ship, how do you plan to survive in the Underworld Ghost Sea? Do you think you can live well here with just the Earth Emperor’s Tome?"
"Moreover, this ship is not simple. It has been floating in the Underworld Ghost Sea for hundreds of thousands of years without being destroyed. Do you think this ship is simple?"
"This ship is probably like the Corpse-Wrapping Cloth in your hand. It doesn’t look good on the outside, but it’s actually quite excellent."
Upon hearing Ming’s analysis, Mu Jinyu thought carefully and realized it made sense!
The previously destroyed Underworld Ghost Ships were clearly not the real ones, but mere illusions. The legendary Ghost Ship accompanying the Underworld Ghost Sea is actually the one they were on now.
Could this ship be simple then?
Although it might not match the Riot-Quelling Sword, it should be much stronger than the Corpse-Wrapping Cloth.
Using the Earth Emperor Bone Qi as the exchange was indeed not a loss.
Especially since others could have taken it directly without needing to exchange, yet they used this ship for the swap, making it even fairer.
"Then I will give it a try..."
Mu Jinyu whispered.
Though they speculated that this Underworld Ghost Ship was used by the Earth Prince’s Descendant to exchange with him, Mu Jinyu was not entirely certain.
He had to try to see if things were truly so.
Then, Mu Jinyu slowly closed his eyes and carefully extended his Divine Sense to sense this Underworld Ghost Ship.
Trying to see if he could control this Ghost Ship.
As a result, he found that as he moved with his mind, the Underworld Ghost Ship indeed moved in the direction he intended.
And it wasn’t relying on the River of Oblivion pulling below it.
Could he really control this Ghost Ship?
Mu Jinyu found it incredible.
Unexpectedly, the Earth Prince’s Descendant, just as Ming said, used this valuable Underworld Ghost Ship as an exchange after taking his Earth Emperor Bone Qi.
To compensate for his loss.
"See? I wasn’t wrong, was I?"
Ming also felt the Underworld Ghost Ship moving in a direction under Mu Jinyu’s control, and he smiled broadly.
"Mm!"
Mu Jinyu responded with a complicated mind.
Then, after a while, Mu Jinyu asked, "Do you know how to find the skeleton of that Earth Prince’s Descendant?"
Ming understood Mu Jinyu’s intent, which wasn’t to take revenge on the skeleton, nor to thank it, as it wasn’t worthy of gratitude.
Mu Jinyu’s intent was to find that skeleton, hoping they could follow it and leave the Underworld Ghost Sea.
Ming sighed, "Alas, if it were the day the event happened, we might have found him, but now three or four days have passed since that event. He’s long gone from the Underworld Ghost Sea, and we’re still within it. How can we find him?"
"Alas..."
Hearing this, Mu Jinyu also sighed, feeling it was quite a pity.
With the Earth Prince’s Descendant’s skeleton gone, they had no one to guide them in the Ghost Sea, unsure of how to leave.
As Mu Jinyu frowned in thought, Ming suddenly said, "Right, you could try letting this Ghost Ship take you out by itself?"
"This Ghost Ship looks broken, and its Artifact Spirit likely lost most of its Spiritual Nature, unable to communicate, but it should still have some simple intent, maybe able to guide us out!"
"Mm!"
Hearing Ming’s reminder, Mu Jinyu thought it over and found it made sense, so he willed the Underworld Ghost Ship to leave the Ghost Sea.
"Boom boom!!"
As Mu Jinyu’s mental commands were issued, the Ghost Ship instantly turned in a direction and sped forward at a terrifying speed.
"Ah!"
Wang Qingxue, unaware of the silent exchange between Mu Jinyu and Ming, was startled as the Ghost Ship suddenly moved, and she couldn’t help but scream.
"What’s... what’s going on?"
Wang Qingxue anxiously approached Mu Jinyu, asking nervously.
Mu Jinyu replied, "We’re leaving the Ghost Sea!"
"Hmm?"
Upon hearing Mu Jinyu’s words, Wang Qingxue’s eyes unconsciously lit up with joy.
But soon, she sensed something was off. The joy in her eyes faded, and she looked at Mu Jinyu skeptically, asking, "How do you know?"
Mu Jinyu didn’t hide it from her, casually replying, "Because something of mine was taken by that skeleton. It gave us this Ghost Ship as an exchange to allow us to leave the Underworld Ghost Sea."
"Is that so?"
Wang Qingxue felt a pang of sympathy looking at Mu Jinyu, asking, "What did the skeleton take from you?"
She had always been curious about this but dared not ask, fearing reopening Mu Jinyu’s wounds would upset him.
But now that Mu Jinyu mentioned it himself, her curiosity got the better of her.
Mu Jinyu heard Wang Qingxue’s inquiry, shook his head slightly, and said nothing.
The matters concerning the Earth Emperor Bone Qi and the Earth Prince’s Descendant were secrets that couldn’t be divulged. He couldn’t tell Wang Qingxue.
Even if Chu Huannian and others were here, he would be cautious in answering.
After all, this was a significant matter.
Seeing Mu Jinyu shake his head in silence, Wang Qingxue remained curious but dared not continue asking.
For a moment, the atmosphere between them turned silent.
"Boom boom boom!!"
The Underworld Ghost Ship surged rapidly through the fierce and turbulent tides, producing wave after wave of violent roars.
After half a day.
Standing on the deck of the Ghost Ship, Mu Jinyu and the others saw a glimmer of light at the end of the dark horizon.
Although that light was still not very bright, in the perpetually dim Underworld Ghost Sea, it was very prominent.
As the Ghost Ship continued forward, the white light before them grew larger and more striking.
That was the Forbidden Dead Sea separating them from the Underworld Ghost Sea!
At this moment, seeing the Forbidden Dead Sea appear, Wang Qingxue was overwhelmed with emotion, tears flowing from her eyes.
Heaven knew how frightened she had been during her time in the Underworld Ghost Sea.
She had thought she would die in the Underworld Ghost Sea.
Yet now, they could come out of the Underworld Ghost Sea, making her incredibly excited!
At this moment, what once seemed so dangerous, the Forbidden Dead Sea, now looked pleasing to her.
"Finally, we’re coming out!"
Seeing the Forbidden Dead Sea at the horizon, Mu Jinyu breathed a sigh of relief.
He also didn’t want to stay here any longer; there was nothing here, and danger was easy to encounter.
Leaving here as soon as possible and heading to the Central Domain is better!
"Boom!!"
Just when Mu Jinyu and Wang Qingxue thought they could leave the ghostly place,
suddenly, a violent roar like the overturning of a river sounded.
Then, with waves surging, a giant whale, all decayed with many exposed white bones, emerged from the Ghost Sea.
The whale’s blood-red eyes reflected endless resentment and Evil Qi, staring intently at Mu Jinyu and the others!
