Nine Revolutions Star Transformation-Chapter 338 - 347: Teleportation Token
Chu Linyue and Yuwen Qingkong were not surprised by Meng Ji’s appearance. The five of them then left the inn and walked toward the outskirts of the city.
For the Golden Demon Vulture, a journey of several hundred miles takes just a short amount of time. Last night, it searched the entire area within five hundred miles but didn’t find the old man selling tokens mentioned by Lin Feng. However, it did discover a vast ocean, and flying towards the sea now was naturally an easy task.
Sitting on the back of the Golden Demon Vulture, Lin Feng saw many people heading towards the Sea Domain, which seemed a bit strange to him. Human races are generally unwelcome in the Sea Domain, so could something be happening there?
Before long, the Golden Demon Vulture landed in a deserted area, and the five of them followed the crowd towards the sea.
Lin Feng approached someone slightly older and asked, "Hey, brother, are you also heading to the Sea Domain? What’s happening there with so many people going?"
The young man looked at Lin Feng and said, "You’re going to the Sea Domain too? Don’t you know about this? The Princess of Mermaid Country is hosting an embroidery ball marriage proposal event this month, and everyone is going to try their luck."
The four of them were taken aback, and this was the first time they had heard about it, making them ask, "Aren’t the people of Mermaid Country unable to cross the Sea Domain, so how did this news get out?"
"Although people from Mermaid Country can’t come out of the Sea Domain, humans can. Many people from the Human Race do business with people from Mermaid Country, so naturally, they know about this. There’s nothing surprising about it."
After speaking, the youth quickly walked away, having received credible information. Lin Feng laughed and said to Yuwen Qingkong, "Brother, here’s your chance, make sure to seize it."
Yuwen Qingkong smiled wryly and said, "I’m not interested in this, but you can try, Second Brother. If you become the Prince Consort of Mermaid Country, your journey in the Sea Domain will be much easier."
"Haha, I’m not interested either, but it’d be nice to take a look. Such excitement is indeed rare."
Soon, a boundless ocean appeared in front of everyone. Several boats were rapidly rowing across the emerald green sea, with several people on each boat. After not long, the boats would disappear.
After a while, the boats would reappear, continuing to row to shore, pick up people, and disappear into the sea again.
"Meng Ji, is the entrance to the Sea Domain in the sea? Is this illusion realm hiding the actual situation?" Lin Feng asked.
"Correct, the entrance to the Sea Domain is indeed on the sea; it’s actually a huge island. On that island is a person named Elder Zhou, who’s responsible for teleportation. His strength is unfathomable and no one knows his origin or true identity. He sells a type of teleportation token to those entering the Sea Domain.
Only people holding this token can enter the Sea Domain. This token contains a mysterious power that prevents people from being harmed by the air currents of the teleportation space.
The strangest thing is that Elder Zhou sells at different prices. Some can buy it with one Lower Grade Star Stone, while others may not get it even with a hundred Top-grade Star Stones. Without this teleportation token, there’s only one outcome for entering the teleportation gate of the Sea Domain — death. We must be mentally prepared." Meng Ji explained everything she knew.
Yuwen Qingkong and Chu Linyue felt deeply uneasy after hearing this. The Sea Domain is truly mysterious, and it’s possible there is a similar teleportation gate on the other side as well, and perhaps each person monopolizes one side.
The Golden Demon Vulture listened and then directly entered Lin Feng’s body; as long as Lin Feng could cross, it could too.
The four of them waited on the shore for the boats to come ashore. Of course, there were also boats carrying people back, who couldn’t enter the teleportation gate due to Elder Zhou’s high prices, each showing visible disappointment.
There were quite a number of people in line, likely from nearby areas since they hadn’t heard anyone in the inn talk about the Princess intending to find a marriage partner yesterday.
After almost an hour, it finally became Lin Feng’s turn to board the boat. A silver-haired elder steered the boat and smiled at Lin Feng and the others, saying, "Are you also attempting to try your luck? The Mermaid Princess is the most beautiful in Mermaid Country; anyone who gets to marry her is truly fortunate.
The wealth of Mermaid Country far surpasses that of the nations here, countless Top-grade Star Stones, and High Tier Martial Skills can quickly turn one into a top expert. But I see you all have families, so perhaps not much chance."
Meng Ji observed the steering elder carefully and said softly to Lin Feng, "This elder’s strength is not simple; it’s at least equal to mine, so speak politely. If we provoke any trouble, the consequences will be severe."
Lin Feng was also shocked; that a mere boatman possesses Divine Martial Realm strength is truly fearsome, and surely there must be some reason, so they must proceed carefully.
The boat was not very fast; sea breezes stirred the waves creating a beautiful sight, and Lin Feng said at this point, "Why are you rowing here on this sea, senior? Is there some hardship, or do you simply find it pleasant and carefree?"
The elder glanced at Lin Feng, equally surprised, for Lin Feng’s appearance strikingly resembles an ancient figure, whose portrait hangs in his master’s house, causing his suspicions.
"Young fellow, speaking with such command at such an age, you must come from a noble family. I have been rowing this sea for over fifty years, far used to it, without any hardship you referred to." The elder smiled.
The elder’s words were naturally not believed by Lin Feng and the others, but they didn’t wish to argue, and soon the boat entered a misty area. Lin Feng looked back and could no longer see the shore, surrounded by water.
"Do not be surprised; the entrance to the Sea Domain is inherently mysterious, and hopes fewer people enter. If not for the Mermaid Princess’ marriage proposal event, my boat would only row once a month. I can only say your luck is good; today is indeed the last day." The elder said.
Soon the boat reached the shore, which was actually a small island since the mist concealed its true size. At this moment, many people stood there discussing something, looking anxious.
They disembarked, observing the people ahead lining up outside a wooden house to purchase something, occasionally hearing laughter or disappointed grievances.
Lin Feng knew it was about buying the teleportation token, uncertain of what price the four of them would face, hoping it’d be reasonable for them to pass smoothly.
Following the crowd, waiting slowly, Lin Feng overheard some needing One-Star Stones, some Ten-Star Stones, and others requiring hundreds of Star Stones, the prices differing widely.
Half of those in the queue managed to get their desired token, while the other half left dejectedly. Finally, it was Lin Feng and the group’s turn, but this time Yuwen Qingkong was at the front of the line...
