Chapter 668 - 334: First Meeting with the Old Master
Fang Yu and Kong Huaao’s figures darted swiftly along the streets of Nanhui City.
Both sides of the street were overflowing with blossoms, bustling beyond compare.
High-end weapons that were extremely precious in Qiyun Port could be seen everywhere in Nanhui City.
And in the districts, there were also a large number of “Essence Feast” shops.
Outside the doors, hordes of captains and crew were lining up; any random line would take several hours to get through, just like some internet-famous product on Blue Star, wildly sought after.
But the goods in this store were nothing like those flashy but useless internet-famous products.
The three major cultivation resources inside were the guarantee of power growth for Navigators; who wouldn’t want more cultivation resources?
Facing such an explosive scene, Essence Feast had specially set an upper limit on how much each Navigator could purchase.
Otherwise, scalpers would surely run rampant, with a single person sweeping the store clean of all resources.
Fang Yu cast a glance at the shops by the street, feeling a bit tempted.
His sea-ship body transformation and mutation were currently only within the scope of the first stage.
To advance to the second stage, break the shackles of Level 50, and be promoted to an Extraordinary Ship, he absolutely needed a huge amount of cultivation resources.
Right now, Fang Yu wished he could turn all the Gold Coins on him into Extraordinary Essence and use them to push his sea-ship mutation higher.
But just now, Kong Huaao had come to find Fang Yu, saying that the old man was already waiting for the two of them in the military district.
So there really wasn’t much time left for Fang Yu to line up and buy things.
The two of them moved forward all the way.
In Fang Yu’s mind, Rude Yue’s words to him surfaced involuntarily.
“Zhang Yi, as the Patriarch of the Zhang Clan and also one of the earlier Navigators to enter this world, gained quite a few opportunities in his early years and monopolized a lot of resources.”
“Under the operation of the entire Zhang Clan, Zhang Yi obtained two Alchemy Divine Artifacts, as well as one page of Ocean Law Codex Fragments.”
“At present, everyone only knows about one of the Alchemy Divine Artifacts; it seems to be a detection-type Alchemy Divine Artifact that can keenly detect nearby resources and treasures.”
“But as for the other Alchemy Divine Artifact, it’s said to be combat-oriented. No matter what, Brother Fang Yu, you must be careful!”
After saying these things, Rude Yue had bid Fang Yu farewell, continued packing crates, and went off to carry out resource transport missions.
Fang Yu was left there, deep in thought.
Zhang Yi having Alchemy Divine Artifacts didn’t really surprise Fang Yu that much.
There were a full 700 Alchemy Divine Artifacts, scattered across every corner of the world.
And the effects of each Alchemy Divine Artifact were different. Some lower-ranked ones weren’t actually that valuable; as the head of a conglomerate, it wasn’t impossible for him to acquire them.
But the Ocean Law Codex Fragments—this inevitably made Fang Yu’s heart grow slightly heavier.
Only Fang Yu knew just how powerful the abilities of the Ocean Law Codex Fragments were.
If he ran into a particularly bizarre Ocean Law Codex Fragment, he might very well fall into a passive position.
Besides, the other party was a Dragon Ship-level Captain; under the blessing of the Ocean Scripture, he would naturally become even stronger.
“Dragon Ship-level…”
Fang Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, his heart stirring.
With his current progress, facing a fully Extraordinary-transformed Captain no longer caused him much pressure; if he unleashed all his trump cards, he was enough to contend with a fully Extraordinary-transformed Captain.
But the Dragon Ship Level was the tier after Extraordinary Ship, separated from Extraordinary Ship by an entire major Level.
Fish leaping over the dragon gate—once at this stage, it was said the Captain would undergo a qualitative transformation in their abilities.
Yet as for what exact transformation that was, there were simply too few examples on the forums and among Blue Star Captains; there was basically no relevant information.
His own sea-ship was enough to match a fully Extraordinary-transformed sea-ship, but it would likely be hard to match a Dragon Ship-level Captain.
What’s more, the Zhang Clan had grown strong and mighty, already becoming a towering force; as the Patriarch of the Zhang Clan, Zhang Yi would naturally also enjoy the glory of the era brought about by such a huge power.
An entire conglomerate, with tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of sea-ships under its banner, and crew numbers a hundred times that.
Although their loyalty and discipline were nowhere near comparable to the army—many Blue Star Captains only joined the conglomerate to avoid being monopolized, and if something happened to the conglomerate, they might not work for it.
But with sheer numbers like that, they could completely condense an extremely powerful glory of the era and possess considerable strength.
Adding in the fact that as the head of a conglomerate, he definitely lacked no resources—if anything, they overflowed.
Perhaps…
Thinking of this, Fang Yu’s heart trembled slightly.
Could it be that this Zhang Yi was a Captain who had walked all four paths?
If that was the case, then he really couldn’t underestimate Zhang Yi.
Although he himself had experienced many adventures and possessed the Divine Artifact Dice,
in the face of such a Level gap and resource gap, his current self was definitely no match for Zhang Yi.
Originally, Fang Yu hadn’t thought the conglomerate would be a huge threat, but now he felt… this Zhang Yi might be a very troublesome enemy.
“Looks like I have to find a way to power up as fast as possible…”
Fang Yu muttered.
“Power up? Did you run into some danger?”
At this moment, Kong Huaao, beside him, couldn’t help but cast Fang Yu a curious look and asked with concern.
“Oh, it’s nothing… I was just thinking about the situation in Lanyun Sea Country, and feeling a bit anxious.”
Fang Yu replied casually.
Kong Huaao didn’t doubt him. After all, the current situation in Lanyun Sea Country was naturally extremely important to both of them.
Stopping Lanyun Sea Country and the Duorong Federation from going to war was the real business.
Hearing Fang Yu’s words now, Kong Huaao couldn’t help but laugh: “I know you’re anxious, but don’t worry. Even if the sky falls, the old man will be there to hold it up.”
