Chapter Eighty-Six: Dragon Bones, and Xia
group with a name that belied its true nature, was meticulously selected by him. The fact that their headquarters were located in the remote city of Cangfeng alone was enough to catch his attention....Jiang Wang didn't need to rush to Xiaoyueya Island as soon as possible.
>
He had Heavy Xuan return to Winterhold first, precisely so that he could travel at a leisurely pace.
He wants to slowly experience the customs and scenery of the nearby islands, personally feel the influence of Diaolou here, and search for possible breakpoints.
He now has the full support of Chong Xuan Sheng and Jiang Wu You, but this combined power is still insignificant compared to that of the Diao Hai Lou.
After all, the level corresponding to Diuhailou is that of a national power like Qi.
The three of them tied together were still insignificant compared to the Diaohailou.
Therefore, they needed a breakthrough point, a crucial entry, in order to have a chance to overturn the rules of Dīng Hǎi Lóu and rescue Zhú Bì Qióng.
Sitting in a dragon-bone boat skimming the coastal islands, Jiang Wang contemplated his own affairs in silence.
This type of dragon-bone boat can carry thirty people at a time and is the most common vessel in the nearby islands.
Compared to the common sampan found in inland rivers, dragon boats are better suited for navigating high seas and waves. They also come in different sizes.
Of course, it can only operate in coastal waters.
Vessels that go to the Mist Sea have a unique structure, all belonging to military-grade equipment, and ordinary forces can't get their hands on them.
Qi State and Diaohai Tower are in constant competition over the islands near the sea.
For example, to take a dragon bone boat, the fare can only be paid with dragon coins made by the Dìng Hǎi lóu.
And in places like Haimen Island, everything from food, clothing, and shelter can be bought and sold. Both Qi knives and Long coins are accepted as payment and recognized by the islanders.

The shipbuilding fees are special because the dragon bone ships were made by the Fishing Tower.
Back in the day, all sorts of strange and wonderful vessels could be found near the coast. There are still many different kinds today, but the boats that specifically carry passengers between islands have all been standardized as dragon-bone ships, silently upholding the will of Diao Hai Lou.
In this world, ordinary people will always outnumber extraordinary ones.
Kaimai Dan is precious in itself, and it's not guaranteed that taking Kaimai Dan will definitely open the pulse. For example, Wang Changji, who was considered a "waste" of Kaimai Dan back when he was in Fenglin City, wasn't an uncommon case.

Therefore, there's an outer sect system within the daoist institutes to select those who can withstand the power of the meridian-opening pills and successfully complete the meridian opening process. Similar systems exist in various cultivation forces throughout the world.
Before anyone opens their meridian, they need to regulate their body and adjust to the right state before taking the meridian-opening pill.
>
Some people open their meridians earlier, while others do so later. For example, Jiang An'an opened her meridian at a young age because she had natural talent and received personal guidance from Jiang Wang. Moreover, she was well-cultivated by Lingxiao Pavilion and took high-quality Meridian Opening Pills. That's why she opened her meridian at such a young age.

Some people pursue a more complete physical state, while others just can't seem to adjust properly.
Apart from Jiang Wang, there was no other extraordinary cultivator in the cargo hold. The passengers were all chatting animatedly to pass the time during the bumpy and uninteresting journey.
“Yesterday, that sea beast from the Yuchan Sect went mad and killed a lot of people!”
“In my opinion, sea creatures shouldn't be kept as pets. They are too dangerous to handle!”
“Of course! I wonder what those people are thinking. They have so much energy, they might as well explore the outer seas instead.”
The term "canghai" is rarely heard among ordinary islanders. They usually refer to it as "the outer sea".

The Mist Sea is also known as the Death Sea by common people.
The Demon Realm is the battlefield of extraordinary cultivators. The sea race's opponents are always extraordinary cultivators—until all the cultivators guarding the sea frontier die.
Just like the commoners of Qi, ordinary islanders knew there were dangers beyond the sea, but only a few understood the source of those perils.
Even many people live their whole lives on one small island, knowing that there are other islands out there, but never going to them.
The people on board were chattering away, each saying their own thing. The sound of their voices mingled with the roar of the waves, swirling in Jiang Wang's ears.

But he was thinking about the problem of "nianchen".
Lin Youxie found Wu Yiyu easily, and also let Jiang Wang know about Nianchen's secret art. Now he knows why he can't get rid of Lin Youxie.
He didn't know if any vestiges of dust still clung to him. He wanted to check but had no idea where to begin.
Because it only appears as a thought.
Thinking intently of one thing, that thing is right here in my heart.

Therefore, it is formless and colorless, without perception or awareness.

So how do you isolate
Jiang Wang suddenly remembered the mysterious person he had met in Wenxi County. That person had said, “Eyes also have weight.” Jiang Wang had only casually glanced at him a few times and was immediately noticed by the man.
Then, is the principle of worldly dust similar to this
If you can perceive the weight of a gaze, accurately detect someone's stare, and take it a step further, can you also sense their innermost thoughts
This all belongs to the application of spiritual power, it should already be in the realm of spirit awareness.
...or until one enters a state of divine revelation.
From this, it can be seen that Lin Yuexie of the Tenglong Realm, who uses this secret technique, is truly extraordinary. The person who created this secret technique must have been incredibly brilliant.
Jiang Wang asked himself, his soul power was considered strong. After multiple enhancements, his strength should not be inferior to the mysterious man he had encountered in Wenxi County. But in terms of applying techniques, he was far behind.
Using the Chang Xiang Si sword spirit, it has a certain ability to kill souls. However, when it comes to subtle and profound arts like Nian Chen, it is somewhat at a loss.
After thinking for a while, I couldn't come up with a good solution, so I could only temporarily subdue my mind.
“Are sea creatures common” Jiang Wang casually picked up a topic and joined the passengers' conversation.
His clean and delicate features, along with his neat and upright posture, easily make a good first impression on people.
There was no cold reception.
A burly man replied, "There aren't many here. The more you go towards Haidao Island, the more there are. They're basically all caught from the outer sea and tamed. They're very dangerous things, young people shouldn't be too curious."
“Didn’t the cultivators tame it How is it still dangerous” Jiang Wang asked.
"The uncle sounded like he was talking to a child: 'You say you've tamed it. It usually doesn't attack islands, that's true. But just one sea beast, easily several stories high, and with a flick of its tail you're gone! How dangerous is that'"
Someone beside him chimed in, "That's enough, Lao Zhao. You're making it sound like you were really there on Huai Island!"
Old Zhao wasn't annoyed, he just chuckled twice: "Hearing about it is as good as seeing it!"
The man next to him was probably his friend, another weathered fellow. Upon hearing this, he continued to argue: "That depends on who's saying it. Some people talk nonsense, so you can't believe everything they say"
“How can you not believe it My cousin’s son's neighbor's daughter is a cultivator from the Wuxianmen. She told my cousin’s son's neighbor, how could that be fake” Lao Zhao said with wide eyes.
Jiang Wangcai asked two questions, before he could say anything else, the two of them started arguing.
But the name "Wu Xian Men" made Jiang Wang somewhat uneasy.
As the new owner of Yun Ding Xian Gong, he inevitably felt extra sensitive towards the term "immortal."
Living in high mountains is like being a fairy. In the distant past, extraordinary cultivators were considered immortals, and even today, this perception persists.
But after the near ancient era, for the cultivation world, whenever one mentions immortals, they are referring to cultivators from the Nine Great Immortal Palaces.
Even the Nine Palaces boasted a system of immortal arts that claimed to transcend Taoist magic, once dominating all others.
“What kind of sect is Wuxianmen” Jiang Wang asked curiously, “This is my first time here, so I’m not very familiar with things.”

"Or perhaps it's Old Zhao, who appears fierce on the outside but is warm-hearted at his core, responded to him: "Then you must remember this. The next island this ship stops at is Xia Island. The Wuxian Sect is the most powerful sect on Xia Island. Don't ever provoke their people."
"What The Five Immortals Gate is the strongest" Old Zhao's friend was clearly unconvinced: "The Furious Whale Gang has thousands of people, would they agree to this"
“Among those thousands, most of them only possess superficial martial skills.” Old Zhao scoffed: “Besides, extraordinary cultivators don't rely on sheer numbers. One strong cultivator can defeat thousands of weak ones. Do you know that”
Having said that, he still pressed Jiang Wang with his thick arm: "I see you're a young man carrying a sword. You must be knowledgeable in martial arts. Don't you think so"
Jiang Wang readily played along, lightly smiling and saying, "Uncle Zhao makes a good point."

Not everyone soars through the skies, climbs to great heights, schemes and plots, or vies for power.
Most ordinary people's lives are just bragging.
