Apart from Chen Daoheng, one of them was also an acquaintance, precisely the late-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivator, Huang Yuheng, who had entered the cave under the Thousand-Eyed Ghoul’s mysterious formation outside Bianhu City.

As for the others, Chen Fei didn’t know them, but judging from their aura, they were quite similar to Chen Daoheng and his companions, likely also disciples of the Fallen Heaven Pavilion.

While Chen Fei was observing Chen Daoheng and the others, Huang Yuheng seemed to sense something and turned to look in Chen Fei’s direction. Seeing only a mid-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm martial artist whom he didn’t recognize, he paid no further attention.

Chen Fei remained calm, his aura changed after using the Blood Refining Art, significantly different from before. Therefore, upon seeing Chen Daoheng and his group, Chen Fei didn’t deliberately avoid them.

Hovering in mid-air, Chen Fei waited until the people from the Fallen Heaven Pavilion disappeared from view before leisurely flying forward.

The task Chen Fei undertook had a deadline of one month, so he wasn’t in a hurry. As for the Fallen Heaven Pavilion’s people, with Huang Yuheng, a late-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivator, present, there was little Chen Fei could do at the moment.

Covering a distance of over two thousand miles, it took Chen Fei several hours to reach the designated task area.

The task Chen Fei received this twas to hunt down a sea monster called the Azure Dragon Carp. This monster’s bloodline was quite extraordinary, reaching the pinnacle of the second-tier upon maturity.

Moreover, the Azure Dragon Carp carried a bloodline inheritance within its body. By relying on the secret method imprinted in its bloodline, it could continuously cultivate upward, breaking through from the second-tier to the third-tier, which was much easier than ordinary sea monsters.

Finding and killing a third-tier early-stage Azure Dragon Carp, or three second-tier adult Azure Dragon Carps, would suffice for this task.

The difficulty of this task lay in finding the Azure Dragon Carp.

Compared to other sea monsters, the Azure Dragon Carp had a distinctive feature: if its aura was not deliberately revealed, it was extremely faint and difficult to perceive from a distance.

Moreover, the Azure Dragon Carp’s body was not large. Even in the third-tier, it was only a few meters long.

The task area provided by the Task Hall was just a rough range, covering an area of hundreds of square miles. In such a vast area, searching for sea monsters naturally adept at concealing their aura was incredibly challenging.

While not as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack, it was still a task that ordinary martial artists would find daunting.

However, for Chen Fei, this task was right up his wheelhouse. With his Heavenly Eye, he only needed to find a slight clue of the Azure Dragon Carp, and he had a good chance of locating its specific whereabouts.

With a beam of light emanating from his forehead, Chen Fei’s figure plunged into the sea from mid-air, comprehensively surveying the situation within several miles radius with his keen vision.

The Heavenly Eye could actually reach a maximum distance of several tens of miles. However, at this extrrange, Chen Fei could only lock onto a single target.

It was similar to when he stealthily infiltrated the sea monster group and saw the Formless Realm Formation. Given a designated target, Chen Fei could clearly see every detail.

But for this kind of carpet-like search, if Chen Fei were to extend his range by tens of miles, it wouldn’t be the Heavenly Eye that couldn’t handle it, but rather Chen Fei’s mental state.

To encompass every detail within several tens of miles into his consciousness would entail a vast amount of information. While the mental power of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivator was extraordinary, it was not to such an extent.

After all, this wasn’t just about simple observation; it was about analyzing every single detail of the surroundings, which places exceptionally high demands on one’s mental state.

Patiently searching, one day, two days, three days passed, and even after ten days, Chen Fei had gained nothing, as if the Azure Dragon Carp wasn’t even in this area.

Chen Fei didn’t feel anxious. This task could be left to other martial artists, and in the end, they might truly cup empty-handed. After all, this area alone spanned hundreds of square miles, and the ocean had its depths and shallows, not just a simple flat surface.

Moreover, the Azure Dragon Carp was only reported to have been spotted in this area by someone in the past. But just because it had been sighted doesn’t mean it would reside here for an extended period.

Therefore, although Chen Fei had seen that this task had been posted for two months already, very few people had taken it, evidently anticipating such a situation.

And now, with the task still open, it indicated that none of those who accepted it had completed it yet.

Five more days passed, making it half a month since Chen Fei arrived here. However, on this particular day, the Heavenly Eye caught a faintly unusual sea monster aura.

Chen Fei’s figure appeared on a rock on the seabed, where a certain area had a slightly different color compared to the rest.

The light at the center of Chen Fei’s brow fluctuated irregularly, pulling out a trace of aura from the river of time.

A smile crept onto Chen Fei’s face. This aura bore about seventy to eighty percent resemblance to the Azure Dragon Carp’s aura provided by the Task Hall. The two to three percent difference was merely due to variations among individual Azure Dragon Carps.

“Finally found you!”

The light beam at the center of Chen Fei’s brow reached its peak brilliance. In the monochrview, the aura of the Azure Dragon Carp was quickly locked onto by Chen Fei. His figure flickered and vanished from the rock.

In the water, Chen Fei’s form moved like a fish. Though incredibly fast, it wasn’t a reckless charge but rather a harmonious integration into the water, following certain patterns and traces, harnessing the power contained within the water itself.

This was undoubtedly an exceptionally clever technique, not only more energy-efficient but also incredibly subtle, to the point of being almost imperceptible.

In less than half an hour, Chen Fei had dashed hundreds of miles underwater, veering far from the area indicated on the jade slip. However, here, the traces of the Azure Dragon Carp becincreasingly apparent within the Heavenly Eye.

Another quarter of an hour passed, and Chen Fei finally caught sight of a fleeting shadow in the distance..
