《Disciple, Don't Cause Trouble, Master Won't Leave the Mountain!》Chapter 114: Storm Enchantment
Advertisement
However, she did not slack off. She checked the compass from time to time, afraid that there would be any mistakes. Fortunately, until now, there were no troublesome problems such as going off-course.
She did not know how long the ship had been sailing, but the sound of the waves had already made Qin Xiaoxi annoyed.
But in the next moment, she was stunned.
A strange scene appeared on the surface of the sea in the distance in front of the boat.
The sky there was covered with dark clouds, and from time to time, lightning like white snakes could be seen poking out of the clouds. From here, one could hear the rumbling sounds coming from the other side...
Even Qin Xiaoxi had never seen this scene before.
The weather there was completely different from where they were now.
Qin Xiaoxi confirmed the compass again.
But what she didn't want to see still happened.
The place where the dark clouds and torrential rain were located was the direction of the compass pointed towards. In other words, if one wanted to go to the Northern Region, they had to pass through the sea area covered with the dark clouds.
It seemed that Jiang Yun really had no way to sleep this afternoon.
Qin Xiaoxi quickly walked to the cabin and tried to wake up Jiang Yun who had fallen into a deep sleep.
Jiang Yun might seem unconcerned at times, but when he fell asleep, he was very quiet and didn't make a sound.
"Jiang Yun!"
"Jiang Yun! ! !" Qin Xiaoxi gently patted his shoulder and called his name.
"Huh?" Jiang Yun turned his body around from his side position. He had just fallen asleep for a while, so he naturally woke up in a daze after Qin Xiaoxi called him twice.

Jiang Yun slowly opened his eyes and saw Qin Xiaoxi who was trying to wake him up while squatting beside him. He closed his eyes for a while and then opened them again. "What's wrong? What's the matter? Are you going to ask me some questions about how to turn the rudder again?"
"How is that possible? Come out and take a look..." Qin Xiaoxi didn't want to argue with him now.
Hearing this, there was probably a serious problem, Jiang Yun immediately straightened his body and walked out of the cabin with Qin Xiaoxi.
Jiang Yun was stunned the moment he walked out.
In the distant sea, dense dark clouds seemed to be spreading bit by bit.
The lightning within the dark clouds also became increasingly fierce. They were like terrifying ghosts which had long known of the arrival of Jiang Yun and Qin Mingzhu. They were expanding bit by bit and were about to devour them at any moment.
Jiang Yun once again opened the compass. At this moment, the compass needle actually began to shake slightly. However, Jiang Yun was still able to roughly make out that it was pointing towards the north.
It seemed... They were getting closer and closer to the Sea of the Northern Region.
Sure enough, the thing that Jiang Yun was worried about had happened. He was afraid that after entering the Sea of the Northern Region, they could only rely on their spiritual power to continue sailing. If they relied on the wind and the sail, they would most likely die and be trapped there forever.
Jiang Yun frowned.
"What is this? A storm? It doesn't look like it." Qin Xiaoxi was also a little shocked, she had never seen such a scene before. The dark clouds in the distance seemed to have a consciousness. Even Qin Xiaoxi couldn't tell if they were heading towards that direction, or were the dark clouds slowly approaching and trying to devour them!

"This isn't a storm... a storm wouldn't be like this," Jiang Yun muttered. "This is most likely a special enchantment in the Sea of the Northern Region to prevent outsiders from trying to enter the Northern Region."
However, even Jiang Yun didn't know what was hidden in this enchantment.
"From now on, there might be no time to rest. I still have no way to figure out this enchantment. We'll only find out after we enter those strange dark clouds."
Jiang Yun quickly grabbed the rudder and slightly adjusted the direction. It seemed that they had no other option but to enter this enchantment. However, it was not a big deal if they thought about it in another way. Since it had come to this point, whether it was a blessing or a curse, they would have to deal with it anyhow. Even if it was a disaster, they could not avoid it.
Qin Xiaoxi was naturally not afraid, especially because she had an additional foundation with Jiang Yun by her side, and more importantly, her belief in obtaining the Holy Saint Snow Ganoderma to save her sister was also supporting her. At this moment, she could be considered to be fearless.
"Are you afraid?" Jiang Yun looked ahead and asked Qin Xiaoxi.
"No..." Qin Xiaoxi's tone was filled with determination. Jiang Yun had to admit that the woman beside him was very courageous and had a strong state of mind. If it was anyone else, they would have been scared out of their wits.
"After we go in, if there's anything you need me to do, you have to tell me immediately," Qin Xiaoxi added. It seemed that she was indeed prepared.
Jiang Yun nodded. For some reason, Jiang Yun felt a lot more at ease. He had originally thought that he would have to divert his attention to take care of Qin Xiaoxi, but looking at her current state, he basically didn't have to worry at all.
"Xiao... Ahem... Miss Qin, go and check if there are any cracks in the cabin. You should also pay more attention to places that are very humid," Jiang Yun suddenly said. He had originally wanted to call her Xiaoxi, but he felt that it was very awkward. However, it didn't seem make him more comfortable even if he changed it to Miss Qin.
"You actually called me Miss Qin in such a refined manner?" Qin Xiaoxi was a little confused. She didn't know what had gotten into Jiang Yun today. He had gone from calling her the second young miss to Miss Qin. It made her feel uncomfortable listening to him.
"Don't tell me I don't look like a refined person?" Jiang Yun naturally or half unconsciously teased her.
"Don't. You, refined? You should just call me Xiaoxi. Miss Qin sounds a little weird..." Qin Xiaoxi almost puked when she heard Jiang Yun's words. "Alright, I'll go to the cabin to take a look first."
"Then you should go quickly." Jiang Yun smiled. He continued to focus his attention on the rudder. As they got closer and closer to the dark clouds, the speed of the boat increased for some unknown reason.

The Ordinary Life of Tom Nobody
[participant in the 2018 NaNoWriMo Royal Road challenge] The Ordinary Life of Tom Nobody is a LitRPG system story where each person transitions into the system, or SCHEMA as this system is known, innocent and unaware of his former life. Following the tutorial, memories return, but by this point, each person has a better chance of accepting their new world. It also gives them an opportunity to start from scratch, fresh without all the baggage of their former lives dictating their decisions in the early stages of the process. I don’t expect this will necessarily turn into an action-packed heroic tale, my intent is to create a character who wants to have just an ordinary, but reasonably comfortable life. I don’t know myself how well he will succeed, there may be twists and Tom may discover some heroism hidden deep inside. I guess we’ll find out together. This is my first writing attempt. I’ve wanted to write all my life, but I’ve never been able to develop the proper discipline to put in the work. I hope I complete the challenge and work my way past this hump. I am writing this as part of the NaNoWriMo Royal Road Challenge. While I will try to self-edit as I go, the challenge requires close to 2,000 words a day, so parts of the story may be rough, and things like plot lines may not make as much sense as any of us would like. If all goes well, and I complete the challenge, I plan on going back through everything and trying to polish it up. In the meanwhile, thank you for reading and I hope I don’t disappoint.
