On the tranquil sea surface, Luo Chen - clad in a brand-new black Vigor Robe - looked less like an artificially wise sage and more like a gallant hero of martial prowess.
Standing midship on the Flying Boat, Luo Chen sensed its sailing speed, which was slower than flying in the air by a third.
Yet, he chose not to fly using his divine abilities.
The reason was, of course, quite simple.
Looking back in the direction he had come from, Luo Chen saw several massive white seabirds circling in the sky.
These were a kind of white Flying Beasts of indeterminate species, primarily First Order, though not without some Second Order ones. By their shapes, they slightly resembled the mortal Xintian Petrels.
Especially in the middle of this flock of seabirds, there was a faintly spreading aura of a Third Order Demon Beast, enveloping the entire group.
