After sending Shen Lang undercover, Mu Qingxue was preparing to go to sea.
Since there were countless pairs of eyes in Yingzhou Prefecture watching her closely at any time, once she made a move or disappeared for a day and a half, it would arouse suspicion and alert from many parties, so Mu Qingxue patiently waited until the fifth day after Shen Lang's departure.
After the secretly dispatched team of "Shen Cat Hall" troops arrived, the scene turned from light to darkness under the cover of that team of "Shen Cat Hall" troops.
For this purpose, she also specially arranged a stand-in.
That stand-in is also the head catcher of the God Catcher Hall.
It was a disguise master that she specially brought in. He disguised himself as her and put on a black cloak of the same style as hers. On the pretext of wiping out the Blood Shadow cult, he led the few Shenshatang chiefs who were called in urgently to catch the head.
Guangming left the city and went to a county under the jurisdiction of Yingzhou Prefecture to attract attention.
She herself sneaked into a private port alone and boarded a merchant ship from the north.
After going to sea, we transferred to a speedboat and rushed to the Thousand Stars Islands.
After receiving a signal from the "locator" on the way and locating the specific location of the pirates' lair, Mu Qingxue ordered the speedboat to travel day and night to the pirates' lair. It only took one day and two nights to arrive at the outskirts of the Thousand Stars Islands.
.
But even if the location of the pirate lair has been locked, it is not easy to pass through the intricate and dangerous waterways of the Thousand Stars Islands.
On the Clipper.
Mu Qingxue stood at the bow of the ship, holding a palm-sized bronze mirror in her long white hands, looking at a small spot of light that was constantly flashing on the bronze mirror.
This bronze mirror is the matching magic weapon she uses to receive the "locator" signal.
Although the "locator" can only last for three hours after it is activated, the uninterrupted transmission of these three hours is enough for the bronze mirror magic weapon to lock the pirates' lair.
Even if the "locator" exhausts its spiritual power and the signal disappears, the bronze mirror instrument can still indicate the direction of "Shark King Island" at any time.
But it only indicates the direction and cannot indicate the specific route.
As for the complex dangers of the Thousand Stars Islands route, Mu Qingxue has certainly heard about it for a long time.
For this purpose, she prepared another magic weapon.
A compass that has the ability to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune, and can guide people to always follow the correct path, avoid all deviations and dangers along the way, and reach the designated destination.
This compass was also made by a first-class great master. It is an extremely precious one-time magic weapon and will be destroyed after one use.
And it must first obtain the clear location of the "destination" before it can guide the correct path.
Therefore, Mu Qingxue had to wait until Shen Lang arrived at "King Shark Island" and activated the "locator" to help her locate the coordinates of King Shark Island before activating this precious one-time magic weapon.
now.
Even though she didn't know the specific route to King Shark Island, Mu Qingxue, who had a compass to guide her path, still commanded the speedboat without hesitation, sailing past the outer reaches of the archipelago at full speed and heading towards the depths of the archipelago.
Everything works fine at first.
Under the guidance of the compass instrument, the maze-like complex channels of the Thousand Stars Islands did not cause any trouble to Mu Qingxue.
All kinds of dangers that are intimidating to outsiders can always be avoided in advance under the guidance of the compass.
Just when Mu Qingxue thought that the trip would be smooth sailing, and that by traveling day and night, it would take at most one day and one night to reach King Shark Island, something unexpected happened.
In the evening, on a safe channel without dangerous reefs and undercurrents, a gray-white mist suddenly appeared in the sky.
When this fog appears, the surrounding sea suddenly becomes calm and calm, with no waves.
The sound of wind and waves all disappeared, and the clipper quickly lost power and slowly stopped.
Seeing the mist, and then looking at the sea surface that became as quiet as a mirror with no ripples, even with Mu Qingxue's strength, she couldn't help but change her expression slightly.
Several sailors on the clipper were almost pale with horror and instinctively prayed to various sea gods.
That gray-white fog is the most frightening "mysterious fog" in the Thousand Stars Islands.
According to legend, from ancient times to the present, no matter who falls into the "mysterious fog", they will disappear from the world.
There has never been any example of ships and personnel swallowed by the "mysterious fog" that have survived.
The only good thing is that although the mysterious fog is terrifying and unsolvable, it will not actively attack.
It's like some kind of natural disaster.
It just appeared inexplicably, drifted aimlessly on the sea for a while, and then disappeared out of thin air.
As long as you happen to be within the fog range when it appears, you will not suffer any harm even if you pass by the mysterious fog.
The Clipper that Mu Qingxue was on was undoubtedly lucky.
When the mysterious fog appears, it happens to be outside the range of the fog and is dozens of steps away from the fog.
What was a little unlucky was that when the mysterious fog drifted aimlessly this time, it was heading towards the Clippers.
At this time, there was no trace of sea breeze on the sea surface, and even the ocean currents had disappeared. The clipper had completely lost power and stopped on the sea surface like a dead fish.
Fortunately, there was Mu Qingxue on board.
Under the hopeful gazes of several sailors, Mu Qingxue struck out with a palm, hitting the sea surface from a distance, causing a huge wave to explode, pushing the clipper towards the side.
Boom boom boom!
Mu Qingxue fired a series of palms. After a few palms, the speedboat had sailed dozens of feet away, completely avoiding the mysterious fog.
The sailors breathed a sigh of relief and cheered in unison.
However, Mu Qingxue frowned deeply.
Before the mysterious fog appeared, the compass magic weapon that was supposed to have the ability to "seek good luck and avoid evil" did not give any hints.
If she hadn't been lucky enough to be outside the range where the fog appeared out of thin air, both she and the clipper would have been swallowed up by the mysterious fog.
And now, although she has safely avoided the mysterious fog that will not actively attack any target, the compass weapon in her hand seems to have been corroded by some mysterious power.
Not only did the pointer spin randomly like a windmill, but the surface of the compass also kept making crackling sounds of wood bursting, and cracks appeared and continued to expand.
According to this trend, this magical weapon will be completely destroyed in a short time.
"The mysterious mist can actually interfere with and corrode the magic weapon refined by the first-level master, causing it to lose its ability to 'seek good luck and avoid evil', and even cause it to be destroyed in advance... The status of the 'mysterious mist' in Qianxing Islands is actually better than that of the first-level master.
Is Da Zhenren still taller? Is the legend true? Is this mysterious mist really the result of the resentment of some fallen ancient god?"
But if it is a god with resentment, how come it has no active aggression and only passively devours ships and creatures that are unfortunate enough to be within the range of its appearance?
Mu Qingxue shook her head, retracting the speculation that had nothing to do with her for the time being, her brows filled with solemnity.
The compass instrument in her hand had been completely broken into a pile of fragments by the erosion of the mysterious power.
It even turned into gravel-like debris, falling from her fingers.
Without this guiding instrument that can seek good luck, avoid disaster, and point out the correct channel, the bronze mirror alone can only indicate the location of "King Shark Island"...
"My luck... Okay, it doesn't matter. I just know the location of King Shark Island. As long as I don't encounter unsolvable dangers such as the 'mysterious fog', storms, ferocious beasts, and sea monsters can't stop me...
…It’s nothing more than spending more energy and spending more time.”
Mu Qingxue took a deep breath and ordered the Clippers sailors:
"You will return immediately and there is no need to go any further."
Several sailors were surprised:
"Where are you, Master Mu?"
Mu Qingxue jumped up, soared ten feet into the air, and then spread out her cloak, like a pair of black bat wings, gliding towards the direction of "King Shark Island" indicated by the bronze mirror:
