Chapter 86: Continuous Water
With the specific coordinates of the map, Jiang Mo set off immediately without stopping. He said goodbye to Mr. Lu and Lu Xuan in a hurry and left the hall.
After a few breaths, a bright white Qi rushed up into the clouds in the Lu family's ancient house. As Jiang Mo's control over the Qi became more and more proficient, his speed underwent a qualitative transformation.
He stepped on the Qi cloud, facing the east, and his frosty hair fluttered in the wind.
The precise map constructed by Qi was spread out in front of him. The place where Lu You was trapped was not Nasen Island, but the surrounding islands, which were only 4 or 5 km apart.
"Uncle Master, after you land on the island, do you have a way to find Third Uncle?"
Lu Jin suddenly remembered that when Jiang Mo went down the mountain to fight the demons, he mentioned to him that he could transform his body into Qi, escape into the space between heaven and earth, and fly freely like Kunpeng.
If the uncle-master could really penetrate into the soil in the form of Qi, there might be a great chance that he could capture the movements of the third uncle.
The moment Lu Jin asked, Jiang Mo said affirmatively, "Yes."
"The simplest method is to control the Qi flow and transform it into a sound wave detection similar to that of a bat, penetrating the mud layer and gradually covering the entire island, similar to the Lu family's Ruyi Jin. However, this search efficiency is not high and it will also alert the enemy."
"Whether it's your Third Uncle, or those Japanese aliens, or hired assassins, they will all evacuate their original positions in advance."
"So what do you think, Uncle Master?"
As soon as the words fell, a roar of thunder echoed in the depressing void for thousands of miles, followed by countless water drops that attacked as fiercely as bullets.
The night wind was howling and heavy rain was pouring down in many areas. Jiang Mo did not dare to be distracted and always maintained the forward direction of Qiyun. Once he deviated from the route, there would probably be a huge error when he arrived at the destination.
"Om-!"
Jiang Mo waved his hand, and the Qi peeled off from his body like flowing clouds, forming a spherical barrier that protected the two of them from the rain.
"This rain is the best answer, Jin'er."
"Hmm? Uncle Master, please forgive me for being so stupid that I cannot guess your true meaning."
Lu Jin frowned slightly. He vaguely grasped some inspiration, but there was still something missing and he couldn't understand it.
"Remember the thundercloud I detained at the mountain gate? The same method can be used with a slight modification. I plan to use the true method to gather the cloud qi near the island and merge it into my qi. The two will blend and cause rain. Where the rain is, there I am."
Hearing this, Lu Jin suddenly saw the light. He had never expected that he could use the true method in this way.
"Uncle Master, is this a first-level ability?!"
"Yes, in theory, you can do it after you have completed your first level of cultivation, but it requires a very high amount of Qi. Otherwise, even if you can summon the Qi to produce rain, it will only be a small pool of water, useless like chicken ribs."
After Jiang Mo's explanation, Lu Jin's understanding of the Trinity True Law reached a higher level. There were so many things constructed with natural Qi, and he had unlimited opportunities to explore.
"Boom!!!"
The Qi cloud rolled over the mountains and went straight into the vast sea. It was pitch black here, the bright moon was covered by dark clouds, no light could be seen, and even the air was very depressing.
A few hours passed slowly, and the distance between the two places was shrinking at a speed seen by the naked eye. Jiang Mo and Lu Jin stayed awake all night.
When the darkness of the sky was replaced by blue and white, a huge red sun rose from where the water and the sky met, reflecting the sparkling sea. It was glowing with golden light, like a furnace of boiling, hot molten iron.
Only one tenth of the distance on the map remained. Lu Jin looked anxiously at the vast ocean in the distance, but he could not see any trace of the island.
“It’s time to slow down.”
In order to avoid disturbing the enemy, Jiang Mo reduced the speed of the Qi Cloud to one third, and gathered a lot of clouds and mist to cover the figures of the two. Looking from the sea level, the sky was high and the sea was vast, and the sound of waves was endless. There was no abnormality at all. In an instant, the map was dispersed from Jiang Mo's palm, and Lu Jin began to warily remind him softly: "Uncle Master, the island has appeared."
At the end of his sight, there was a deserted island lying in the ocean, thousands of meters long, with a tortuous coastline and naturally formed wind-eroded harbors that were densely intertwined like canine teeth.
"This is one of the subsidiary islands. Nathan is to its southeast. Your uncle is on the north side of this island. There is also a deserted island there."
Jiang Mo roughly determined the location and took Lu Jin with him, hiding in the clouds. After passing the island, they saw the wreckage of five ships stranded on the beach in the distance. After being burned by a fire, they became a ruin.
According to the information provided by Uncle Li who escaped back to the Lu family, it is not difficult to see that the people of Nathan Island have an overwhelming advantage and have successively defeated Lu You's group of bodyguards and the temporary team composed of Oriental aliens and killers.
When Qiyun reached the vicinity of the island, Jiang Mo looked down and saw densely packed corpses. Within his counting range, there were 98 in total.
There was not a single intact body to be found. The heads had all been cut off, and dirty blood had seeped into the mud and sand. The highly decomposed bodies emitted an alarming stench under the scorching sun.
"Uncle Master, we can't land there. Someone is probably watching us. I saw the forest shaking just now."
Jiang Mo accepted Lu Jin's supplement. He controlled the Qi cloud, slowed down its speed, approached the west side of the island, and then stayed in the air.
“It’s time for a heavy rain”
Jiang Mo used his true power, and his Qi flowed across the sky and spread in all directions, soon gathering into dark clouds that covered several islands. Nasen Island was not within the special exploration circle.
"Boom!!!"
There were lightning and thunder, and countless water vapors condensed in it, absorbing wisps of Qi that were so weak that they were almost undetectable, and then fell downwards.
"Crash!!!"
Under Jiang Mo's control, the rain began to cover the entire island, passing through the void, wetting the beaches, forests, mountains, caves, and almost every corner.
"Let's go, Jin'er."
Fatigue appeared on Jiang Mo's face. After a night of controlling Qi and artificial rainfall, although he was able to replenish Qi continuously, the consumption was still quite large.
With his light shout, thunder rumbled in the sky and Qi clouds swooped down towards the beach. Jiang Mo and Lu Jin took advantage of the pouring rain and leaped down, successfully landing on the island.
This is the farthest affiliated island from Nason, with scarce resources and sparse population.
"Wow!"
Jiang Mo raised his right hand slightly, and a blazing fireball was born. He sneaked into the jungle, and no insects or beasts dared to approach him. He and Lu Jin found a remote cave to rest for a while.
The morning that should have been bright was suddenly covered by heavy rain. Jiang Mo meditated in the cave, emptying his mind, sensing the direction of every drop of rain.
Lu Jin served as its guardian, standing guard outside the cave, his eyes fixed on the lush rainforest.
Facing this mysterious forest, his skin felt slightly tingling, and the vague threat was particularly strong.
As time passed, the rain gradually stopped. Jiang Mo frantically consumed his brain power in the vast amount of information and soon locked onto the key location information.
His eyes suddenly opened:
"Found it. It's on the island."
I have a cold and I'm taking an IV drip. I'll update in the evening.
