Chapter 340: Navigating the Ocean and Landing on Land
Gu Yang stood on the edge of the deserted island, looking at the dawn in the east, and had already made a decision in his heart.
He knew that it was time to return to Canglong Island.
His body shook slightly, and the magic power surged in his body, forming a series of light patterns that surrounded him.
He took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and then swung them out.
The vitality in the air seemed to be summoned, rushing madly to his fists, forming a terrible force.
Gu Yang's eyes flashed with determination, and his voice echoed on the empty deserted island: "Canglong Island, here I come!"
As the voice fell, Gu Yang's figure turned into a stream of light, crossed the sea, and flew towards the distant northern continent.
The sea breeze whistled and the waves rolled, but in front of Gu Yang's speed, everything seemed so insignificant.
Canglong Island, that is the foundation of Gu Yang's practice, and it is also where his heart is.
There, there are his master, family, and those memories that accompanied him growing up.
Gu Yang's heart was filled with a desire to return. His speed was getting faster and faster, as if he had turned into a beam of light, cutting through the sky.
However, the Sea of Death is the Sea of Death after all, not Gu Yang's backyard.
Just as he flew over a sea area, the water surface under him suddenly exploded, and a huge figure that covered the sky and the sun rushed out from the bottom of the sea.
The huge figure was like a moving island, its body covered with thick blue-black scales, each scale flashing with a cold metallic luster, as if it were a gem in the deep sea, exuding an ancient breath that had been sleeping for thousands of years.
The sea beast's head was wide and flat, and a pair of huge eyes were like an ancient well, deep and dark, revealing an immeasurable depth.
Its mouth split open, revealing fangs like swords, each of which was extremely sharp, as if it could easily tear apart all obstacles.
The sea beast's back was covered with dense bone spurs, extending from the neck to the tip of the tail. There was a faint blue electric light flowing between the bone spurs, which made people think that it might have the power to control lightning.
Its limbs are strong and powerful, with webbed feet, and every swing can stir up the waves of the sea. The tail is like a paddle, and it can stir up huge waves with a flick.
Gu Yang frowned slightly. He didn't expect that such a huge monster was hidden in the depths of the Sea of Death. But there was no fear in his eyes, only a more determined light.
He knew that he couldn't stay here for too long, otherwise he would attract more sea beasts, and he might even be the master of the Sea of Death. He must break through this obstacle as soon as possible and continue to Canglong Island.
Gu Yang's hands formed seals again, his magic power surged in his body, and rays of light burst out from his body, covering his figure in a dazzling halo.
"Big Five Elements Barrier!" Gu Yang shouted in a low voice, and the five-colored light around him was bright, as if he had borrowed all the five elements between heaven and earth for his own use.
The sea beast roared, and its huge body raised huge waves on the sea, as if it was going to swallow Gu Yang.
Its fangs flashed with cold light, and every time it opened and closed, it seemed to tear the air apart, making a heart-pounding scream.
Gu Yang remained calm, his palms flew, his magic power condensed, and the Great Five Elements barrier quickly formed around him. The five-colored light enveloped him, as if a god had descended to the earth.
"Come on!" Gu Yang shouted, his voice full of challenge.
The sea beast seemed to have sensed Gu Yang's provocation, it roared angrily, its huge body shook violently, and a blue electric light spurted out of its mouth, heading straight for Gu Yang.
The speed of the electric light was so fast that it almost arrived in front of Gu Yang in the blink of an eye, but Gu Yang was prepared. He moved slightly, using the power of the Great Five Elements barrier to easily dodge the fatal blow.
"Not bad, but not enough!" Gu Yang sneered, his figure was like a charm, moving quickly around the sea beast, looking for an opportunity to attack.
The sea beast was extremely angry. Its body began to roll on the sea surface. Its huge tail swung, raising the waves to the sky, trying to knock Gu Yang down.
But Gu Yang seemed to have expected it. His figure kept changing in the air, as graceful as dancing, and he cleverly blocked the sea beast's attack every time.
At the same time, endless golden light condensed around him and turned into a golden blade hundreds of feet long!
"Cut!"
With a roar, the golden long sword cut through the void and slashed at the huge sea beast.
The edge of the golden long sword was like thunder that split the sky, and it instantly slashed on the scales of the huge sea beast.
Sparks flew everywhere, and there was a loud noise, as if it shook the entire sea area.
The scales of the sea beast were extremely hard. Even if Gu Yang hit it with all his strength, it only left a shallow mark on its body.
The sea beast roared in pain, and its tail swung violently. A huge wave hit Gu Yang like a landslide.
Gu Yang turned in the air and nimbly avoided the attack, but the impact of the sea water still made him feel suffocated.
He knew that it was difficult to cause fatal damage to this behemoth with the power of the 100-fold Golden Sword Technique alone.
Gu Yang's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and he decided to cast a more powerful spell.
He formed seals with his hands again, and the magic power in his body surged like a tide. Complex runes flashed around him. As he chanted, the vitality between heaven and earth began to respond to his call and gathered into a more powerful force.
"Tidal gravity!" Gu Yang shouted in a low voice, and the water power in the sky suddenly began to condense rapidly, turning into a huge vortex, instantly covering the huge sea beast.
The sea beast struggled in the whirlpool, its huge body constantly rotating under the traction of the water flow, but the powerful force did not make it succumb.
There was a flash of anger in its eyes, and its roar shook the surrounding sea water, as if challenging Gu Yang's limit.
The violent power erupted in its body, and its limbs kicked violently, trying to tear the tidal vortex.
However, the vortex tightly bound the sea beast, and the edge was constantly flowing. The struggle of the sea beast only made the vortex tighter.
Gu Yang's face was solemn. He knew that this battle would not be easy, but he had no intention of retreating.
His hands kept making seals, and his magic power was as endless as a spring.
His eyes were firm, and the sea surface under his feet was rippling under the influence of his magic power, as if he had already produced some kind of wonderful resonance with this sea area.
The surging water was drawn out from the sea, constantly replenishing the vortex formed by the tidal gravity.
At the same time, Gu Yang kept running the magic power in his body, taking the opportunity to condense a more powerful golden long sword.
"Golden Sword Technique, Thousand Times!"
Above the sea, Gu Yang's voice was like a judgment from hell, full of unquestionable determination.
The golden long sword carried the power to destroy everything, and accurately slashed on the neck of the sea beast.
This time, the scales of the sea beast could no longer resist, and the blade deeply sank into its flesh.
Blood gushed out, and the sea water was dyed blood red.
The body of the huge sea beast trembled violently, and a trace of fear appeared in its deep eyes.
Gu Yang did not give it any chance to breathe, and then a series of attacks fell on the sea beast like a storm, and each blow hit the vital point accurately.
Finally, with a shrill roar, the body of the huge sea beast was separated, and it hit the sea surface heavily, raising huge waves.
The huge body of the sea beast rolled on the sea surface for a few times, and then gradually became silent, and the huge figure slowly sank to the bottom of the sea.
Gu Yang watched the sea beast disappear and took a deep breath. He knew that he had won the battle, but he also paid a great price.
His mana consumption was huge and needed to be restored as soon as possible.
He looked into the distance, in the direction of Canglong Island, and a firmness flashed in his eyes again.
He couldn't stay here for too long and had to move on as soon as possible.
Gu Yang adjusted his breathing, and his figure turned into a stream of light again, flying towards the land.
...
As time passed, Gu Yang had been traveling in the Sea of Death.
During this period, he experienced several battles and killed several huge sea beasts.
Half a month passed in a flash, and on this day, green and yellow finally appeared in front of his eyes.
"Hahaha——"
With a long laugh, Gu Yang's figure was like a meteor, cutting through the sky and quickly moving away from the range of the Sea of Death.
The sea breeze whistled in his ears, and the roar of the waves gradually faded away, replaced by the fresh air on land and sparse bird calls.
As the coastline gradually blurred, a vast land appeared in front of Gu Yang.
Gu Yang's gaze passed through the blue sky and fell on the land he had dreamed of.
He saw the vast plains, and the golden wheat fields swayed in the breeze, like a golden ocean with waves.
In the distance, the rolling mountains were like sleeping dragons, winding on the horizon, and the forests on the mountainside were lush and green.
Gu Yang's eyes moved slowly across this familiar yet unfamiliar land, and he felt a long-lost peace and tranquility.
The sun shone on his face, warm and kind, a temperature that was not found in the Sea of Death.
He saw groups of cattle and sheep grazing leisurely on the plains, and foreign people sitting on the stones nearby playing the flute. The melodious flute sound came with the wind, adding vitality and vigor to this land.
Gu Yang took a deep breath, and the air was mixed with the fragrance of soil and the freshness of grass, which were all things he could not enjoy after drifting on the sea for many days.
His speed gradually slowed down, and his figure landed steadily on a green grassland.
The ground beneath his feet gave him a solid feeling, and he couldn't help but take a deep breath, trying to dispel the fatigue in his body.
Gu Yang looked around. This was a piece of land he had passed by before, and the scenery along the way gradually relaxed his mood.
He knew that there was still some distance from here to Canglong Island, but at least the most dangerous part was over.
He walked forward along a path, with tall trees on both sides of the path. The leaves rustled in the breeze, as if cheering for his return.
Gu Yang's pace was neither fast nor slow, and he was enjoying every moment of his return.
On this land, his race, his relatives and friends, and his beloved family lived.
Soon, he would finally see those lovely people again.
...
After a short rest, Gu Yang's figure was like an arrow from a string, flying across the grassland at a high speed, leaving a series of blurred afterimages.
His heart was filled with longing for Canglong Island, which was the harbor of his soul and the source of his strength.
In the sunlight, his shadow moved quickly across the land, like a soaring eagle, free and determined.
His speed did not slow down due to the long journey, but as his longing for home grew stronger, his speed seemed to be getting faster and faster.
Behind the grassland is a stretch of endless hills, with wild flowers blooming in all colors and fragrant. Gu Yang did not have time to appreciate the beautiful scenery. He just took a quick glance and then sped up again.
He crossed the hills and crossed a series of small rivers. Every time he jumped over a river, he could cause ripples on the water, as if even the river was happy for his return.
Gu Yang's mood gradually became anxious. He knew that he was approaching the human territory.
Indistinctly, he seemed to feel the familiar breath in the air, which was the smell of the same kind.
Desolate state, closer.
At this moment, a crisp eagle cry suddenly came from the sky.
Gu Yang looked up and saw a huge white eagle flying high.
The appearance of the white eagle was like a white cloud, flying freely in the blue sky. Its feathers were as pure and flawless as snowflakes. Each feather shone with natural luster, as if it was a masterpiece of nature.
The giant eagle's wings are broad and strong. Every time it flaps, it brings up gusts of wind, making the surrounding clouds surge. Its eyes are like two dazzling gems, revealing a sharp and deep light, as if it can see through all the secrets of the world.
The giant eagle's beak is long and sharp, like a sharp sword, flashing with cold light, showing its supreme power when hunting.
Its claws are hard and powerful, and each claw tip is as sharp as a blade, enough to easily tear the hard shell. The giant eagle's tail feathers are uniform, and they change constantly with the flying posture, controlling the balance and direction, showing its excellent flying skills as the king of the sky.
Gu Yang stared at the white giant eagle intently. He could feel the majestic aura emanating from the eagle. It was not an ordinary bird, but a spiritual eagle with noble blood.
In this land, it is undoubtedly the overlord of the sky, overlooking all living things.
Suddenly, the white giant eagle discovered Gu Yang below. A hint of interest flashed in its sharp eyes, and its eyes were fixed on Gu Yang, as if preparing to hunt.
It adjusted its flight trajectory and descended rapidly in the direction of Gu Yang.
As the giant eagle descended, Gu Yang could feel the pressure in the air gradually increasing, which was a manifestation of the giant eagle's powerful aura.
Feeling the hostility of the giant eagle, Gu Yang couldn't help but flash a sharp light in his eyes.
He didn't know whether this white giant eagle was a wild beast or a spirit beast recaptured by an alien race.
But he knew very well that the two sides would have to fight next.
As the giant eagle continued to fall, Gu Yang's body began to rapidly condense five-color light.
The Great Five Elements Barrier, the strongest attack and defense technique in his hand, was ready to go!
