Chapter 67 - Natural Disasters

As the pirates got closer, the other two elders also saw them and gave Xu Mingxi and the elder chief a puzzled look. Logically speaking, they should have found him long ago.

The two of them could only smile awkwardly. They couldn't say that they were just watching for fun. The two old men were helpless as well. They looked at each other and instantly took action.

The stars were shining and dazzling.

The boy felt like he had just seen some starlight, and then fainted. When he woke up again, he had been tied up.

"Don't kill me, I'm not in the same group as them, I'm still useful, please don't kill me."

"Alright, I won't kill you, just calm down and talk nicely."

Looking at the young man who was tied up and crawling on the ground with tears and snot in front of him, Xu Mingxi couldn't say anything. If they wanted to kill him, they would have killed him long ago. Had they not seen the corpses of the pirates beside them?

Xu Mingxi had noticed this youngster who hadn't gotten along with the pirates before. That pirate leader didn't treat him like his own friend, so he let him live.

"Gentlemen, please spare my life. I'm just an innocent person who was kidnapped by pirates. My martial spirit is the eye, which is very useful for navigation."

The young man told them in detail how he followed the caravan to the sea and how he was kidnapped by pirates to this island. He also told them about his two martial skills for fear of being left behind.

Nearsightedness and dynamic observation, these two soul skills were quite good, and why did the eye martial soul look so familiar?

"Young man, your last name is Huo."

"How do you know that, benefactor? My name is Huo Quan. If you don't mind, benefactor, I am willing to serve you at any time."

"Alright, alright, come aboard. You'll be responsible for cleaning the deck and observing sea conditions."

Xu Mingxi no longer intended to chat with the young man, so he lay down on the grass and looked at the stars.

Song Jiang followed Huo Quan into the pirate territory. Other than a few boxes of gold soul coins and some food, there were no truly valuable treasures. Although Xu Mingxi didn't expect to get soul bones just by beating up bandits like the protagonist.

The group rested on the island for two days before setting sail again. Xu Mingxi took out the Shark's Tooth again. This time there was a chatty sixteen-year-old boy on the boat, which made it a bit more interesting.

After stretching his body on land, Xu Mingxi entered the cultivation state again. Originally he wanted to be in charge of some reconnaissance work, but he didn't expect that all this work was taken over by the three elders. He only had to concentrate on cultivation.

Now, apart from the one elder who injected soul power into Shark Tooth and the one elder who stood guard at the lookout tower, the remaining elders entered the cultivation state with Xu Mingxi, alternating constantly.

Those who follow Xu Mingxi in practice will receive special care from him. Moonlight essence would be continuously injected into his body through the star power fusion method. Even the two Soul Douluo elders who were old and had exhausted their potential could feel that they were constantly making progress.

There was a glint in Huo Quan's eyes as he looked in awe at the bright starlight that descended from the sky and shone directly into the cabin.

"Uncle Song, young master is really great."

"That's right, isn't it? It's fortunate that you were able to meet Young Master Xu. As long as you take advantage of this opportunity, you'll become a great person."

Huo Quan's talent was still good. Now at the age of sixteen, he had reached level twenty-two. In the future, let alone becoming a Titled Douluo, he still had a chance to become a Soul Douluo.

"Alright, kid, have you cleaned the deck? Why don't you just sit here and chat? Continue your work."

"Yes."

Huo Quan shivered and immediately picked up the mop beside him. His martial spirit would definitely be a treasure in an ordinary sailing team.

However, this team had three Soul Douluo and even one Titled Douluo with a wide range of perception, so Huo Quan seemed somewhat expendable. He had to prove his ability to stay on the ship, even if it was just a small cleaning job.

...   

The unserious Xu Mingxi started writing his diary in the cabin again.

"Seventy-eighth day at sea. The weather is cloudy and my mood is very bad. My soul power has been cultivated to level eighty-four, but life at sea is too boring. If I hadn't felt the sign in the ocean of the spirit becoming more and more active, I would have gone crazy.

I didn't expect that Huo Quan's parents were actually from Poseidon Island. After they were expelled from the island for not awakening their innate soul power, they gave birth to a little genius like him with level six innate soul power.

The Seal of the Vast Sea Universe still existed in the Heaven Dou royal family's secret vault. Although it was their national treasure, there might be a chance to obtain it in the future.

If I really get it by then, I can let Brother Mingguang try it out. After all, Poseidon only sees talent and sees absolutely no match.

I suddenly want to..."

Knock knock knock.

There was a knock on Xu Mingxi's door, and then it was immediately pushed open. He subconsciously immediately closed the diary, put it in the storage soul manual, and looked at Huo Quan who ran in.

"Don't you know how to knock on the door before entering?"

"Mr. Xu, something bad has happened, please come out and take a look."

Xu Mingxi's face changed and he instantly disappeared into the room. Although Huo Quan is not yet an adult, the soul masters are very smart and have a lot of experience. He was so careless, something big must have happened.

As soon as he walked out of the cabin, the sound of raindrops fell on Xu Mingxi's face. He looked around, yet there were no visible signs of the sea soul beast attack as he had imagined. Could it be that Huo Quan really wanted to die?

However, when he saw the Great Elders and the others gathered around the wheel with displeased faces, he knew that Huo Quan might not be exaggerating.

"Mr. Xu."

"Mr. Xu."

"Mingxi, you're here."

When Xu Mingxi arrived, the others consciously made way for him to walk in front of Miao Nong who was standing in the crowd.

"Mr. Xu, you're here. This is not an exaggeration. A big storm is coming."

"Don't worry, tell me in detail what the situation is."

"Yes, Mr. Xu, look over there."

Xu Mingxi looked in the direction farmer Miao pointed, and saw dark clouds gathering in the sky. They were like surging black waves, continuously surging in all directions, coloring the entire sky the color of ink.

The drizzle began to grow heavier, accompanied by several large rumbling sounds. The dark clouds in the distance continued to roll and surge, as if they contained endless power.

"Mr. Xu, based on my decades of experience, this is a sign of a great storm coming."

Xu Mingxi didn't know whether what Miao Nong said was true or not, but the weather was indeed unfavorable. It was better to believe him than not.

He immediately ordered the Shark Tooth to go full speed and move away from this sea area. At the same time, the two Soul Douo elders entered the power room together, injected soul power at the same time, and opened Shark Tooth's soul guide shield to the maximum.

Xu Mingxi and the Great Elder stood on the observation deck together, staring at the distant sky, watching the changes in the weather and waves on the sea, ready to take action at any time.
