"Impressive, this Cang Hai Jue allows a land dweller to transform into an aquatic being, enabling them to breathe freely underwater. It's the first time I've seen Internal Energy change a life form."
"That’s not entirely accurate. In those old martial arts dramas, there were techniques like the Turtle Breathing Technique, where martial artists could dive for an entire hour using their Internal Energy."
"I'm more concerned about the protagonist's character. After mastering this divine skill and swallowing some turtle, he suddenly possesses Internal Energy. Is there no sect in the martial world to check on him?"
"Perhaps it's because he came downstream, following the river to Yuan City, which is too far from his original sect."
Da Qian Jiangnan, Xia Cheng, named for its beautiful evening clouds in summer, not only boasts stunning twilight hues but also houses Da Qian's largest port. It has a corresponding industrial chain, complete with everything from basic lumbering to shipbuilding workshops.
Da Qian and Xu Lie's maps from their past lives differ significantly; there are direct connections between north and south via large rivers, eliminating the need for artificial canals. Thus, Xu Lie reached Xia Cheng by boat in just half a month, occasionally checking Danmaku to understand the plot's direction.
Now it is already the beginning of the Second Act of Cang Hai Jue, where the protagonist Chen Tao begins his adventures in the martial world thanks to his skills. It’s time to refresh the audience’s impression.
As a villain, how could he remain absent from the audience's view for too long? Even if he doesn't appear on screen, he must be made aware of his significance so that viewers anticipate his entrance.
With this in mind, Xu Lie focused on his fishing rod while instructing: "Old Song, A Gang, please take a few people to Yuan City. Look for someone named Chen Tao. He unexpectedly learned Cang Hai Jue under Jiangnan White Fish Gate and possesses Internal Energy like a ghost in the water. You need to find a way to acquire this Cang Hai Jue technique; it will be of great use to Kaihai."
The two attendants standing behind Xu Lie—an old man and a middle-aged man—exchanged surprised glances, not expecting the Second Prince would send them out on such a task.
Old Song, whose real name is Song Qiao, possesses remarkable Internal Energy and hails from Yunshan. In the martial world, he is known as Yunshan Old Man. After losing his son at an early age and becoming obsessed with feng shui, he sought to bury his son near Da Qian's royal cemetery. However, due to the strict guarding of the cemetery by imperial troops, even someone as skilled as him couldn't force his way through.
Ultimately, Song Qiao encountered the Second Prince by chance and received assistance that allowed him to lay his son to rest peacefully. From that point on, he pledged loyalty to the Second Prince.
A Gang's real name is unknown; he claims he has been called that since childhood. He possesses extraordinary strength and is tall and robust, with skills so refined that he can withstand arrows shot at him with precision.
Of course, as I have stated, I can only withstand three arrows at most; any more and I would be done for. Since the Second Prince had his injury treated by the imperial physician, he has been following closely, always ready to sacrifice himself to shield the Second Prince from arrows.
With a face full of flesh, A Gang spoke in a deep voice, "Your Highness? We should leave; what about your safety? How about I stay behind and let Old Song go instead?"
Old Song shot a glare at the hefty man, thinking how could someone with such a brain protect the prince effectively? It was clear that someone with rich experience from the martial world like him should be the one to stay close.
Seeing that there were no fish biting, Xu Lie casually tossed out a handful of bait, creating ripples on the surface of the water. "What danger could I possibly face in Xia Cheng? You can rest easy; just remember to bring more people. This Chen Tao's Cang Hai Jue allows one to breathe and move freely underwater."
As for my Opening the Sea Plan, it is especially important. The reason I want you two to go together is to ensure everything goes smoothly without any mishaps.
