The Rich Cultivator -
Chapter 73. Docking
Chapter 73: 73. Docking
Tyler looked at the horizon. It feels quite novel to stand on the edge of a floating island. Some flocks of birds are flying around the Island. The sun shone as a beautiful scene appeared before his eyes.
Huge fish the size of a human diving in the sea. Tyler never saw fish like that.
Tyler picked up Silvia and left with others. Now that Abel is dead and most of his subordinates are dead. As his ’Wife’, Avrora gets all his fortune.
Soon the death of Tiger Gang Leader Abel spread through the whole of Island. Everyone in the other villages were also shocked. Tiger Gang is an infamous one. At Least they are the strongest Gang in the whole Island.
It didn’t really have a big impact on everyone except the Tiger Village Villagers. They are happily celebrating. Some of them wanted to take revenge on Avrora. But when they heard it was Avrora who killed him they silently walked back.
Avrora is just a 1 star Novice Warrior. When she found out that she doesn’t have enough talent. She simply gave up. She just wanted to live her life peacefully.
"Are you sure you are not staying? Outside world is very dangerous. You can find millions of Elite Warriors like Abel are working hard everyday just to survive." Avrora said.
"Nope... I have this obsession with becoming an Immortal Practitioner. That’s one of my goals in my life." Tyler said.
"What about this girl?" Avrora patted Silvia’s head.
"We Found some letters in Abel place. It mentioned that someone is after her. It is not safe for her to stay in the village. I will take her with me. She is the first person I met when I entered this world and since she has no one, she will travel with me." Tyler said.
Silvia smiled when she heard that.
Keeping Silvia with him will only bring him trouble. Tyler already made up his mind. Even if there were dangers, so what? The world is full of danger.
Soon Tyler saw many people packing many local items. Many of them are loading vegetables, fruits, herbs and even different types of ores and stuff.
"After Docking, People will go to the Crimson Blood Sect territory to sell." Avrora explained, she took a stack of paper and gave it to Tyler.
"What is this?" Tyler asked.
"That’s 10,000 Lydia." She replied.
"Paper is money?" Tyler was dumbfounded.
"Yes." Avrora felt amused by his reaction.
Tyler looked at the currency notes. There is a Mermaid Girl in it. He also picked up the coin and saw the same mermaid in it.
"Isn’t it easy to make this thing?"
"It is issued by the Bank of Atlantis. The mermaid is the president of Bank of Atlantis. Every coin has a law in it with a unique number. So If there is a fake coin or currency, it can be identified easily.." She said,
"Law?" Tyler was confused.
"I don’t know what Law is. But I heard a rumour that some Higher realm immortal Practitioners have." she replied
While Tyler was talking with Avrora, a Ship appeared near the floating island.
"That Island must be heading to Crimson Blood Sect Islands." One of the guys on the ship said.
Another man nodded with no interest. He is fishing while sitting on the deck.
"Let’s ask them if we can join them." The man said and went to into the ship cabin.
He took a device made of seashell and spoke in it.
"We are wandering Adventures called Fortress. Can we dock on your Island?" He sent a message.
"Alright." A dignified voice responded.
"Hey, we are gonna stop on that Island." The man announced.
The man who is fishing took back his fishing rod and held the deck. The Ship flew up suddenly and slowly landed on the water that was flying along with the floating island.
The one who gave permission is the Island master. The Island Masters don’t involve themselves with the internal conflicts. They are only responsible for maintaining the Island.
Each Island is owned by individual organisations, sects, academies or even adventures and pirates.
Soon many ships began to dock on the island. It is not free, they have to pay some amount as a fee. For those matters Island Master’s subordinates took incharge.
As long as there are no external threats to the island. The Island Master and his people will not interfere.
Few days later, the Island reached a group of islands on the sea. Tyler also saw a Giant Island with Giant mountain and rivers floating. He could even view it from the village.
"We reached Crimson Blood Sect territory. The Island is going to descend." Avrora said.
"I have to make more money." Tyler sighed.
Tyler merely asked, "What do you think is the fastest way of making money?"
Avrora said without thinking, "Collecting protection fees!"
"Get lost! Haha."
Avrora also laughed; she was just joking.
"Try food business. No matter where you are food is popular." She thought for a moment and said.
Tyler nodded. His body weight suddenly feels Little different. The Island is descending. Silvia held his hand. Tyler already packed his stuff. He decided to join the Crimson Blood Sect and recover.
According to Avrora, the Crimson Blood Sect is an unorthodox sect. But he doesn’t care. He really had no other choice because the only sect in this sea area is the Crimson Blood Sect. His top priority is now to recover.
After the Island docked. Many people started to move towards the group of islands with goods.
They are going to a trading point.
Avrora gave him a final hug. This might be the first and last goodbye. Even though she is reluctant she knows that everyone has their own Life.
Tyler walked towards the small boats that carried people to the group of islands. He boarded a boat with Silvia. He looked back and waved at Avrora.

Tyler arrived at the port, his heart pounding with a mix of anticipation and anxiety. The port was a whirlwind of activity, with people of all kinds bustling about, merchants hawking their wares, sailors preparing their ships, and travellers hurrying to their destinations. Tyler moved through the crowd, relieved that he could speak the local language. He is glad that he learned the language. Because it is the skill that would undoubtedly serve him well in this foreign world.
He paused at a weathered map of the town, tracing his finger along the routes and landmarks. He noted that he would have to wait for five days before the common rental flying boats arrived. These flying boats were the only way to travel to the floating island above. There are many scattered islands, twenty in total, with the largest one mysteriously floating above the rest.
With a sigh, Tyler made his way to the nearest inn. His funds were dwindling, forcing him to book the cheapest room available. The inn was humble, but it would suffice for the next five days. As he entered the small, dimly lit room, he couldn’t help but feel a pang of nostalgia for the wealth and comfort he once enjoyed. He was determined to regain his fortune and more.
Tyler glanced at Silvia, who was already fast asleep on the modest bed. Her presence was a comfort amidst his turmoil. Carefully, he took out a small copper pot from his bag, along with a single piece of fruit. He dropped the fruit into the pot and then removed it, examining it closely before sighing in disappointment. It didn’t work. He placed the copper pot back in his bag, frustration etched across his face.
Silvia stirred and opened her eyes, watching Tyler with curiosity. She had seen him perform this before, deep in the forest. Back then, his despair had been palpable, and he had even broken down in tears. Despite her curiosity, she hadn’t dared to ask him about it, sensing that it was a deeply personal matter.
Tyler fell onto the bed, exhaustion overtaking him. He was mentally and physically drained from the long journey and the constant pressure of his quest. As he drifted off to sleep, Silvia reached out and gently patted his head, offering silent comfort. She then moved closer, seeking warmth and reassurance in his presence.
The night was quiet, but Tyler’s dreams were turbulent. Images of his past world, filled with opulence and power, mingled with his current struggles and the daunting challenges that lay ahead. He dreamed of flying in the sky and exploring the secrets of this world.
When he awoke the next morning, the sun was already streaming through the small window of the inn. He felt a renewed sense of determination. The next five days would be spent preparing for the journey to the sect, gathering supplies, and learning as much as he could about his destination. Tyler knew that the road to cultivation would be fraught with danger and uncertainty, but he was ready to face whatever challenges awaited him.
