Chapter 252: Pirates Part 1

Their journey on the ship took two weeks, and they all cultivated the entire time, while taking it in turns to stand on guard and also control the ship.

The journey was even more dangerous and difficult than the one that they took to reach the island they were previously on.

It seemed as though the close they went towards the centre of the Lower Plains, the more dangerous and powerful everything became.

Controlling the ship was the easy part and they would just need to make sure it kept heading in the right direction and wasn't knocked off course due to waves of attacks from sea beasts.

With the amount of beast cores that Lex was using to fuel the ship, it was constantly moving at an unbelievably quick pace and most sea beasts wouldn't be able to keep up with it.

However, those that could were extremely dangerous and powerful, with them being unable to handle them alone many times.

In those cases, Angela or Ella would call for help and Lex would usually be the first to help them in taking down the sea beast.

Angela was still developing and couldn't handle sea beasts that surpassed her cultivation level by a lot, while Lex knew that Ella was holding back some power and wasn't using her full potential, but knew she had many secrets and things to worry about, so would aid her in taking down the sea beasts she struggled with.

As for him, he didn't need to call them once and used the sea beasts that came his way as training and a restock of beast meat in his inventory.

The two weeks were very boring, and they repeated the same cycle over and over again, however they progressed a lot even though they were travelling on a ship the entire time and it also went by very quickly.

As they neared the same continent and Lex and the others were able to see signs of a large land that stretched as far as they could see, they all became excited, eager to begin their next adventure.

A foreign land.

New people

New opportunities.

And a new adventure.

There was so much more they could do, experience and see on the large land they were heading towards, and unlike the previous island they were on, it was unlikely to need them to intervene much.

While they would also be unlikely to be able to do much and would be spending quite a long time on that continent, gathering as much information as they could, while also increasing their power and enjoying themselves.

However, it seemed as though it wasn't going to be that simple.

As they neared the new land, they could see one large ship that was many times larger than theirs, along with 3 other ships that were of similar sizes to theirs.

It was clear that they didn't have good intentions, and from the flag that they had on all of their ships, they were definitely there to harm or steal from them.

The flag was made up of a black background, with a red sword that was dripping blood and gave the viewer an ominous feeling.

They didn't seem to be evil cultivators, however; they didn't mean they were good people in the slightest.

Standing on the deck and seeing all of that, Angela, Ella and Lex were instantly ready to fight, while they were also calm and could clearly see that they were outnumbered.

On the smaller ships, they had around 10 cultivators on them, while on the larger ship they had around 40 cultivators, meaning there were at least 70 of them that Lex could sense.

"I heard about them on the island we were on. They are known as the Blood Sword Pirates and they an unruly group that steal and harass those that attempt to enter the continent from further out in the Lower Plains," said Lex.

"Since we are coming from further out into the Lower Plains, they are likely to think that we are weak, but also believe that we have treasures and resources as we made it this far from further out in the Lower Plains," added Ella.

"While they are also likely to be able to do so freely as the continent is so big that it cannot all be monitored, while they don't really care about those coming from further out in the Lower Plains," added the other.

"From what I can tell, they are all Golden Mortal and peak Heaven Mortal Cultivators, while their leader is a high level Golden Mortal. Along with that, they are all carrying some sort of treasures or powerful weapon and are also much more powerful than the bandits we faced on the previous island," Lex observed.

"The deeper we go into the Lower Plains, the more powerful and capable the cultivators become, even if they are at the same cultivation level as others further out in the Lower Plains. This is not a battle we can win, especially not unscathed," he continued.

"If they don't let us pass and don't plan on negotiating, I will send you two back to my Sub-Dimension, so I can act more freely and get us onto the continent. While we will also make sure to get them back for messing with us and kill them all," planned Lex.

Ella and Angela nodded their heads and agreed with his plans, knowing that if Lex was alone, he would be able to manoeuvre and get past them much more easily, and once they were on land, they could begin picking them off and getting their revenge.

"I am a captain of this crew of Blood Sword Pirates. This is our border and to pass, leave your ship and everything within it," announced the strongest of them all who stood on the larger ship.

Lex didn't mind leaving behind the ship since it would be of much use when they headed deeper into the Lower Plains, as it wouldn't be able to handle sea beasts or storms that were any more powerful.

However, what the Blood Sword Pirate Captain said next was what angered and annoyed Lex.
