Chapter 721: Chapter 203: Water Tai Sui, It’s Actually Water Tai Sui_4

The ship could be twice the size of Chen Jie’s Meng Chong, yet it was a reconfigured cargo ship.

Chen Jie turned his head to look, and then he saw Ba Tan and others standing on the ship captain.

Ba Tan and his crew also saw them, and at that moment, Ba Tan furrowed his brow and said, “Speed up, dash forward, overtake them.”

Hearing this, Ba Tan’s large ship began to slide frantically, with ten paddles underneath dedicated to propelling them.

However, the speed of Chen Jie’s Meng Chong was extremely fast. Even if the other side sped up, they simply couldn’t catch up with Chen Jie and his crew.

Soon, Chen Jie left them far behind, disappearing out of sight. Watching the Meng Chong vanish before his eyes, Ba Tan slapped the ship’s timber and shouted, “Useless, a bunch of useless fools, can’t even catch up with them!”

Nan Batian and his entourage kept their heads lowered, not daring to speak.

At that moment, on the Meng Chong, Liu Laoguai looked at the no longer visible Nan Batian with a triumphant laugh on his face, “Thinking you can compare your boating skills to mine? Eat my dust!”

“Ha ha ha…”

Seeing Liu Laoguai so happy, Chen Jie said, “Old Brother Liu, make sure you don’t get the direction wrong.”

Liu Laoguai laughed and said, “Pearl Clam, I know, I could find it with my eyes closed. Didn’t anyone tell you? I was born among the Dan people!”

Hearing this, everyone on the ship was taken aback.

The Dan people, a special term for fishermen who specifically harvested pearls. It was unexpected that Liu Laoguai actually came from the Dan people.

Everyone thought as the ship headed straight for the Pearl Clam. The Pearl Clam, a treasure spot in the Mianshui where river clams with pearls were abundant.

The pearls from this place were very large, round and smooth, truly upper-class pearls, therefore outsiders called them Mianshui Pearls.

After traveling for about an hour, they reached the Pearl Clam. From a distance, they were all stunned by the sight before them.

Instead of the usual sight of the Pearl Clam, there was now a giant island that occupied almost the entire area of the Pearl Clam.

Chen Jie had been to the Pearl Clam before, but he had never seen such a gigantic island there. It seemed as if the island had suddenly sprouted from the water.

As the Meng Chong drew closer, Chen Jie could tell from the outline that the island seemed to be a huge river clam.

But if you said it was a river clam, that would be an exaggeration—it was the size of a small hill. How could there be a river clam so enormous in this world?

Could this be a supernatural being?

Thinking this, Chen Jie and those around him were all shocked. Ah San, unable to contain himself, said, “What, what is this? A giant river clam? Could the treasure be inside this huge shell?”

After Ah San finished speaking, everyone else also looked puzzled.

However, at this time, Commandery Princess’s face was filled with amazement as she said, “Indeed, indeed it is!”

Hearing this, everyone turned to Commandery Princess and said, “Commandery Princess, do you recognize this?”

Commandery Princess replied, “Yes, my master has told me about this. This being is called the River Flipping Mirage, a kind of Spiritual Object that can emit mist, and is extremely proficient at creating illusions. It can even conjure up a city or a tower out of thin air. There’s an ancient saying, ‘a mirage at sea,’ known as a celestial phenomenon.”

“That thing inside, the Mirage, is exactly this creature.”

Having said that, Commandery Princess continued, “Right, it has another name, Water Tai Sui!”

“Um!!”

Upon hearing this, everyone’s eyes widened. Who didn’t know about the Tai Sui Pill? Water Tai Sui. At this moment, everyone was astonished by the sight of this enormous being; how many Tai Sui Pills could be refined from such a massive Water Tai Sui!

For a moment, everyone was dumbfounded.

After a short moment of amazement, Chen Jie quickly came to his senses. He had seen Earth Tai Sui before and naturally knew how dangerous it was.

Moreover, Yuan Sanjia had once said to him that there were five types of Tai Suis, corresponding to the five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. He had encountered Earth Tai Sui that could swallow everything when it came out from beneath the ground.

As for Water Tai Sui, Chen Jie had now experienced it.

It was capable of creating mirages like the sea city illusion. Thinking this, Chen Jie suddenly remembered the Flood Dragon he had seen in the sky. Could it be an illusion created by this giant creature?

Thinking so, Ah San spoke, “My goodness, Water Tai Sui, it’s massive! It’s practically an island. If we could carry this island back with us, wouldn’t we be more prosperous than if we took all the herbs here?”

Zhao Ya said, “Listen well, once we’re inside this Mirage, do not act rashly; it is very dangerous. If it were easy to capture, the court would have already sent people.”

Chen Jie, hearing this, said, “Commandery Princess, hasn’t the court sent any extraordinary experts to hunt this Water Tai Sui? Such a Water Tai Sui could likely sustain an entire army, couldn’t it?”

Zhao Ya replied, “It can’t be caught. This Mirage is very formidable. The court once sent Heavenly List experts to capture it, but they were trapped by the Mirage’s illusions, and by the time they wanted to catch it again, it had vanished without a trace. To capture it, one must be able to break its illusions.”

“But to see through the Mirage’s illusions, there are very few in this world capable of doing so. It’s incredibly powerful.”

Hearing this, Chen Jie nodded. He hadn’t expected it to be so formidable, which explained why it hadn’t been captured over so many years. After all, who wouldn’t be tempted by such a huge Water Tai Sui?

In fact, this Water Tai Sui was the most precious treasure in the Medicine King Treasure. Compared to the immense Water Tai Sui, even a Fire Phoenix Pill was insignificant.

Such a massive Water Tai Sui could arm an army of ten thousand.

While Chen Jie pondered, the Meng Chong slowly approached, and as they drew nearer, Chen Jie finally got a clear view of this big ‘river clam’.
