Immortality Martial Arts: I Started with the Five Animals Health Fist

Chapter 203: Chapter 101: The Dragon Roams the Shallows! Expedition to the Blue Sea!_1

“Consolidate the realm.”

Su Changkong continued his cultivation in this sea area, but after the breakthrough to the 9th realm of the Turtle Breath Technique, the pressure of the seawater can hardly make him progress anymore; the seabed whirlpool had exhausted its kinetic energy after several months and was on the verge of dissipating.

Su Changkong cultivated for several days, getting used to the new power.

The Giant Whale Skill had also made enormous progress over these three months, though reaching the 6th realm still required some time.

In terms of the Qi-Blood Realm, Su Changkong spent three months refining three Strong Blood Pills before breaking through to the fourth variation. He estimated that relying solely on eating ordinary meat to strengthen his Qi and Blood would take years to achieve a breakthrough!

That afternoon, two martial artists from the Giant Whale Gang arrived as scheduled, but this time they weren’t there to bring Su Changkong food, but rather to inform him of some matters.

“Master Su, the Second Miss said she has something to discuss with you. Would you be able to return for a bit?”

One of the young martial artists cautiously said to Su Changkong.

He admired him in his heart, for Su Changkong could cultivate alone in the sea for three months, eating and sleeping on the ocean; such persistence was hard to achieve without great determination!

“Something to discuss with me? Then I shall return for a visit.”

Su Changkong was slightly puzzled by Sikong Huang’s purpose in seeking him, but as his cultivation had come to a pause for now, he had no need to continue the arduous practice alone at sea. He immediately nodded in agreement and decided to return to the Giant Whale Gang to see the situation.

Su Changkong returned to the port by boat, rode a horse through the journey, and arrived back in the Giant Whale Gang by evening.

After leaving for three months, everything in the Giant Whale Gang was as calm as ever.

And in a room, Su Changkong met Sikong Huang.

“Little Brother, it seems your aura has become more reserved after your training during these past months… just like our father once was, with an inscrutable presence!”

Upon seeing Su Changkong, Sikong Huang was inwardly shocked. She always felt that with each passing period, Su Changkong became more and more unfathomable!

“Second Sister, I heard you were looking for me? Is there something the matter?”

Su Changkong cut to the chase and asked. Usually, Sikong Huang wouldn’t disturb his cultivation unless it was something important.

Hearing this, Sikong Huang said with some excitement, “Yesterday, someone came to the Giant Whale Gang. It was an envoy from the Eighteen Pirates, and they mentioned Big Brother!”

“Sikong Zhan?”

Su Changkong was taken aback as well.

Half a year ago, during the operation to eradicate the Ninth Grand Thief, everything had been going smoothly. However, they were betrayed by Meng Sang, the operation was leaked, and three elite Sea Pirate Groups launched a sudden attack. Sikong Zhan stayed behind to draw their fire and had been missing ever since.

Most people thought Sikong Zhan was probably dead, but now with the Sea Pirates sending envoys mentioning Sikong Zhan, it indicated that he might very well be alive! They must have come to the Giant Whale Gang to negotiate terms!

Su Changkong was also grateful to Sikong Zhan. Sikong Huang taught him the Giant Whale Skill, which must have been with Sikong Zhan’s approval. Additionally, after the three of them became sworn siblings, Sikong Zhan had given Su Changkong three precious Blood Refining Pills. Now, hearing that Sikong Zhan might still be alive, he was somewhat excited as well.

Sikong Huang said helplessly, “Those two Sea Pirate envoys, when asked about Big Brother, kept their lips sealed, claiming they would only speak once they saw our father. They most likely want to negotiate some terms! So…”

Those Sea Pirates had captured Sikong Zhan and didn’t kill him; their aim was easy to guess—they wanted to use him as leverage to extort benefits from the Giant Whale Gang!

The two Sea Pirate envoys, sent to negotiate, were willing to speak only with Sikong Yong.

Su Changkong understood Sikong Huang’s intention—she wanted his help to disguise himself as Sikong Yong to meet the two Sea Pirates.

“Alright, then I will meet with them!” Su Changkong did not hesitate much before agreeing. He also wished to know the specifics about Sikong Zhan’s situation.

Without delay, Su Changkong changed his appearance to look like Sikong Yong. After doing all this, he headed to Juyi Hall with Sikong Huang accompanying him.

“Gang Leader!”

The disciples of the Giant Whale Gang who saw Su Changkong along the way all saluted him excitedly.

About half a year ago, after Sikong Yong announced his return by killing Meng Sang, he had rarely appeared in public. Now, seemingly due to an urgent matter, this Gang Leader, whom even the high-level members of the Giant Whale Gang rarely saw, appeared before the people once again!

In the Juyi Hall, sitting upon the Whale Bone Chair, Su Changkong sat still, with Sikong Huang and Sikong Wen beside him.

“If… if Zhan Er is not dead, then he will be the one to take over the Gang Leader position in the future!”

Sikong Wen said excitedly.

The Giant Whale Gang had been doing well lately, all thanks to Sikong Yong coming out of seclusion, but Sikong Wen knew very well that a man like Su Changkong wasn’t likely to stay in the Giant Whale Gang forever; a successor had to be selected.

And the most suitable person was undoubtedly Sikong Zhan, but with Sikong Zhan’s life and death uncertain, Sikong Wen also worried about choosing a successor for the Gang Leader position!

But now with the visit of the Sea Pirate envoys, Sikong Zhan was most likely alive, just under the control of the Sea Pirates. They had come to negotiate terms!

“Bring them in!”

Sikong Wen steadied his mind and ordered immediately.

“Yes!”

Outside Juyi Hall, some Giant Whale Gang disciples led two men into the hall.

Both men were around thirty, fierce-looking, with rough skin—the kind of skin only those who endure the elements year-round would have. The two had a resemblance to each other and were likely brothers!
