Fang Yu enters seclusion to enhance his sea ship's abilities, aiming to break through his current level cap. Meanwhile, the master-level Alchemist Wang Yuanwei arrives in Blue Sky City, looking forward to enchanting Fang Yu's ship and making a profit. His arrival coincides with the presence of Congress Guards, who are patrolling the city due to unrest within the southern military faction, sparking rumors among the citizens.
"Brother Fang Yu... my brother Fang Yu... Salted Fish..." "Uh... where is it?" At the port, Wang Yuanwei, clad in a simple short-sleeve shirt and loose pants, scanned the docked ships, craning his neck. Perhaps due to an inherently optimistic nature or a carefree disposition, Mr. Wang quickly dismissed the earlier street encounters. He regained his cheerful demeanor, toolbox in hand, ready to bestow enchantments upon Fang Yu’s vessel. It’s noteworthy that every enchantment seal pattern adorning Fang Yu’s ship, from its inception to the present, was the handiwork of Mr. Wang. In essence, Salted Fish was akin to Mr. Wang’s cherished creation, a masterful work he felt immense pride in. His affection for Salted Fish rivaled that of its own crew. At this moment, the distinct slapping sound of Mr. Wang’s flip-flops echoed as he trod upon the sandy shore. He strode with purpose, eager to behold Fang Yu’s ship as swiftly as possible. However, after a thorough search, Mr. Wang found himself scratching his head in bewilderment. "Where is the ship? It was supposed to be docked here, wasn't it? I can't seem to spot it..." "Mr. Wang!" Just then, a joyful voice called out from a distance. Wang Yuanwei paused, turning his gaze towards the speaker, and recognized a handsome young man waving enthusiastically. "Luu Yuan?" This young man was Luu Yuan, whom Fang Yu had dispatched to negotiate the purchase of potions with Cheng Peng’s captain alliance. Having concluded his mission and returned from Cheng Peng's side, Luu Yuan spotted Wang Yuanwei and inquired with a hint of curiosity, "Mr. Wang, what brings you to the beach? The captain is waiting for you to perform the enchantments..." Mr. Wang rubbed his head, still perplexed, "I haven't seen Salted Fish either..." Luu Yuan let out a helpless chuckle, guiding Wang Yuanwei with a casual gesture. "Look, isn't that Salted Fish right there? Let’s go, the captain doesn’t have much more time for you to enchant." Wang Yuanwei stopped, lifting his gaze to the vessel before him, and indeed saw the name "Salted Fish" proudly displayed on its sign. Upon confirming its identity, Mr. Wang’s jaw dropped in sheer disbelief. "This... this... this... what a drastic transformation!" Mr. Wang stammered, genuinely astonished. He had passed by this ship earlier but had not recognized it as Salted Fish. In his mind, Salted Fish remained a warship-class vessel. Even after Fang Yu mentioned its upgrade, Mr. Wang had simply looked among the standard warships. After all, it hadn't been that long since Mr. Wang and Fang Yu last met – perhaps a month? This line of reasoning was perfectly logical. Yet, who could have anticipated such a profound metamorphosis in Fang Yu’s ship in such a brief span? The once metallic outer armor was now beginning to sprout keratin. Furthermore, the keratin layer possessed a subtle scale-like texture, reminiscent of a marine fish navigating the ocean depths. With his discerning eye for vessels, Mr. Wang instantly grasped the ship's evolving state. He was inwardly shocked to realize that Fang Yu’s ship had already made significant strides on the path of body and extraordinary transformation, poised to soon enter its initial stage. Once body transformation and extraordinary transformation fully encompass the vessel, Fang Yu’s ship would be elevated to the extraordinary ship level. And now... it seemed tantalizingly close, just a typical distance away? "Has this kid advanced so rapidly?" Though straightforward, Wang Yuanwei possessed a keen understanding of the cultivation path and marveled at the swiftness of Fang Yu’s ship’s enhancement. "Mr. Wang, what are you murmuring about down there? Hurry up and come aboard!" Luu Yuan’s voice from above broke through Wang Yuanwei’s reflections. "Alright, I’m coming!" Mr. Wang nodded, his musings silenced, and with a nimble leap, he boarded the ship. Once on deck, Mr. Wang began to touch and examine various parts with delight. Even as a master alchemist, he seldom encountered opportunities to enchant ships of this remarkable caliber... Mr. Wang sensed that this mutated state was unlike anything he had seen before, exuding an ancient and noble aura distinct from the common, flashy vessels. Mr. Wang was thrilled, recognizing that rare ships with peculiar mutations were exceptionally valuable to him. Enchanting a ship, much like Fang Yu defeating other vessels at sea, was a method of "gaining experience." Upon completing the task for Fang Yu, his mastery of alchemy seal patterns would undoubtedly reach new heights. "Mr. Wang, have you arrived?" At this moment, Fang Yu’s voice emanated from behind Wang Yuanwei, prompting him to turn and see Fang Yu offering a warm smile. "Hey, Fang Yu!"With palpable excitement, Wang Yuanwei gestured and then unlatched his toolbox. He then confided in Fang Yu, "Why don't we just head back to Qiyun Port? The journey here was quite a hassle." "We can't return just yet; some complications have arisen. How was your trip? Did anything noteworthy occur?" Fang Yu offered a gentle smile, shaking his head. This guileless Wang Yuanwei was perceptive enough to grasp that a particular faction had set its sights on him. After all, the proprietor of Treasure Tomb had previously shared tales of his arduous path while imparting alchemical knowledge, cautioning Wang Yuanwei to remain perpetually vigilant. Consequently, Wang Yuanwei hesitated to board a vessel for the time being, choosing to stay put in Qiyun Port, wary of potential perils lurking at sea.
