Chapter 5105 Entering
"Since you've figured it out, I won't hide it from you anymore. We are indeed going to the Heavenly Court Sea." Su Bai nodded lightly, smiling as he looked at the other person. His intuition told him that this fat man was probably not simple.
Upon hearing this, Qian Duoduo's eyes lit up even more, as if she had seen a moving mountain of gold.
He looked around, then leaned closer to Su Bai mysteriously and whispered, "My benefactor, since you're going to the Boundary Sea, you've come to the right person! I happen to have some 'top-secret intelligence' about the Boundary Sea!"
"Oh? What information?"
"As you two should know, the Boundary Sea is fraught with danger, but I have an absolutely safe 'secret passage' here!" Qian Duoduo said confidently. "As you also know, the Boundary Sea is rife with spatial-temporal turbulence, and even gods would face a near-death experience if they went in. But my secret passage can bypass most of the dangerous areas and leads directly to the depths of the Boundary Sea!"
"Well? Are you interested, benefactor?" Qian Duoduo looked at Su Bai expectantly, then held up five fingers and shook them.
"Fifty thousand divine crystals?" Luo Yunsheng guessed.
"Tch! Fifty thousand divine crystals is like throwing money at a beggar!" Qian Duoduo rolled his eyes and demanded an exorbitant price, "Five hundred tons of Chaos Origin Crystals! Not a penny less!"
Five hundred tons of Chaos Origin Crystals?!
Luo Yunsheng almost laughed out of anger, "You fatso, why don't you just rob someone? It's hard to say if you'd be worth five hundred tons!"
You should know that Su Bai just sold a flawed artifact in exchange for eighty tons of Chaos Origin Crystals.
This fat guy asked for 500 tons right off the bat. That price is enough to buy several damaged artifacts. He's simply obsessed with money.
Su Bai was amused by the fat man's greedy nature.
He looked at Qian Duoduo with a half-smile: "Five hundred tons? Do you think we look like people with that much money?"
"Hehe, it's so similar! It's uncanny!" Qian Duoduo said with certainty. "Being able to casually dismiss the Demon Kingdom's divine cultivators and afford so many specially made Sky-Stabilizing Beads, you two are definitely hidden millionaires! Besides, is life more important or money? This secret passage can save your lives!"
Su Bai shook his head. Although he was interested in the secret passage, he wouldn't be a sucker.
"Fifty tons. Take it or leave it." Su Bai cut the price directly, slashing right to the ankle.
"Ouch! My benefactor, you're too ruthless! That cut right into the main artery!" Qian Duoduo exclaimed dramatically, his face contorted in pain. "Four hundred and fifty tons! That's the lowest I can go!"
Sixty tons.
"Four hundred tons! That's really the bottom line!"
"Seventy tons."
......
After intense bargaining, the final price was set at one hundred tons of Chaos Source Crystals.
"One hundred tons it is! Sigh, what can I do? I'm a kind-hearted person. I'll just consider it making a friend." Qian Duoduo had a "I've lost out big time" expression on his face, as if he was cutting off a piece of his own flesh.
Su Bai didn't have many Chaos Divine Crystals left in his Divine Realm World. Now, these things were more useful than he had imagined, so he had to use them sparingly.
So, he casually took out a defensive artifact of decent quality, a "Mysterious Turtle Shield," from the Divine Realm, which he had obtained from a powerful deity in the Demon Kingdom, and tossed it to Qian Duoduo.
"This item can be used to pay off the debt."
Qian Duoduo took the Xuan Turtle Shield, his little eyes widening instantly. He scanned the shield like a searchlight, even sticking out his tongue to lick it, appreciating the divine power fluctuations on it.
"Hiss—this is a good item! Although it's a bit damaged, the material... is worth at least 120 tons of Chaos Origin Crystals!"
Qian Duoduo's expression changed instantly, her eyes crinkling with laughter. She quickly tucked the shield into her bosom, afraid that Su Bai might change his mind.
"Deal! Deal! My benefactor is truly generous! From today onwards, I, Fatty, will be your personal guide! You point me wherever you want, and I'll go wherever you want... Uh, I'm no good at fighting, but I'm number one at leading the way!"
Looking at this money-grubbing, shameless fat man, Su Bai and Luo Yunsheng exchanged a glance, both feeling a bit amused and exasperated.
The other party is at least a god-level powerhouse, yet he behaves like a common merchant. One can only say that the other party is an extraordinary person.
However, with this local expert leading the way, the rest of the journey might actually go much more smoothly.
"Let's go, lead the way."
Su Bai said lightly.
"Alright! This way, my benefactor!"
Qian Duoduo ran ahead, his round figure looking particularly comical in the sunset, yet also exuding a strange sense of reliability.
........
After leaving Blackhorn City, guided by Qian Duoduo, the three did not head directly towards the main channel marked as a restricted area. Instead, they took a long detour and arrived at a star field that seemed more desolate but was unusually peaceful.
There were no violent meteor showers or howling void storms here, only a deathly silence of darkness, as if even the light had been swallowed up.
"This is 'Silent Hill,' a natural blind spot in the Heavenly Sea."
Qian Duoduo stood at the bow of the divine ship, holding an ancient-looking, even somewhat worn-out compass in his hand. As he fiddled with it, he proudly introduced, "Those powerful people like to take the main entrance and bravely resist the spatial turbulence, how foolish. Only a true old hand like me knows this shortcut."
"However, it's not safe here either."
Qian Duoduo suddenly stopped smiling and said seriously, "Although there are no spacetime storms here, it is full of 'spacetime mazes' that are invisible to the naked eye. Once you get caught in one, you will lose your way and be stuck in the same place forever until your lifespan is exhausted and you die inside."
As he spoke, a faint blue light suddenly appeared on the compass in his hand, and the pointer spun wildly before finally settling on a direction that seemed to be empty.
"Follow the pointer, and don't stray off course! The space here is dynamic; it changes every hour!" Qian Duoduo shouted.
Su Bai carefully maneuvered the divine ship, following Qian Duoduo's instructions.
Sure enough, as the divine ship entered that area, Su Bai immediately sensed a strange fluctuation.
The surrounding starry sky seemed to have turned into a flowing liquid, sometimes stretching and sometimes twisting, giving people a strong sense of dizziness.
"Is this the illusion of time and space...?"
A glint of light flashed in Su Bai's eyes. He had cultivated the Dao of Space and was extremely sensitive to such fluctuations.
He could sense that the laws of space here had been artificially disrupted, forming a massive maze. Without proper guidance, it would be extremely easy to get lost.
"It seems this fat guy does have some skills." Luo Yunsheng whispered to Su Bai, his gaze towards Qian Duoduo less dismissive and more approving.
The divine ship sailed through Silent Hill for three whole days.
For the past three days, Qian Duoduo has barely slept, keeping his eyes glued to the compass in his hand, constantly correcting the course.
His forehead was covered in sweat, which was obviously a great drain on him.
