The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2519 Are you the only smart one?

Just as everyone was overjoyed, someone immediately raised an objection.

“Cultivating by relying on the tides of spiritual energy is indeed feasible, but it is extremely dangerous.”

"Cultivation and energy circulation must be stable and avoid fluctuations. The harm caused by the tides of spiritual energy is continuous and unstable. If you are in the middle of a critical moment and suddenly there is a sudden surge, it will cause your mind to tremble and your energy circulation to go astray, which will cause a big problem."

"If one could truly cultivate at will, would being banished to the Sea of ​​Suffering still be a punishment? Wouldn't it become a reward like the Pool of Wish Power?"

Upon hearing this, everyone's newly ignited hope was instantly extinguished.

Yes, if one could cultivate using such a rich spiritual energy tide and make their strength advance by leaps and bounds, would coming here still be a punishment?

Although one can cultivate oneself by taking risks, who can afford to bear the risks of cultivation?
One wrong move and you lose everything!

Even Lin Chen could withstand the cutting sensation of sharp blades on his skin, but the spiritual energy tide was unpredictable. Who knew if a violent stinging pain would strike at any moment, causing him to lose his balance?

Someone shouted, "Endure as much as you can while you can. Only when you can no longer bear the pain should you use your magic to protect yourself and use this time to recover quickly before you have to endure the pain again."

"The first step is not to collect pearls or to find the central island of the market, but to get used to the pain brought by the spiritual energy tides and find your own way to bear it."

"Only when we can easily handle and endure such a level of pain will we have the capacity to search for pearls."

"The best way to survive in the Kuta Sea is to form a team, help each other, take turns guarding, support the magic weapon, and resist the power of the tide."

Everyone's eyes lit up immediately. That's right! When faced with the spiritual energy tide, everyone panicked and struggled to hold on on their own. Why didn't they think of joining forces?
This is not entirely their fault; after all, who doesn't walk the path of cultivation alone?
People's hearts are unfathomable. After experiencing many life-or-death situations, one naturally becomes wary of everyone and subconsciously chooses to trust oneself rather than others.

“Those who are willing to help each other and stick together for warmth, gather around me. We will take turns supporting the magic weapon and protecting everyone. This way, everyone will have plenty of rest time. We will take turns like this, find the market first, and then decide how to get through.”

Since someone organized it, many people went over. After all, there is strength in numbers. For the time being, they were all fellow disciples and there was no competition between them.

Lin Chen didn't try to be brave. Who would willingly endure pain as if they could avoid it?
The organizer was an old man. He took out an umbrella and opened it, from which a blue light, like rain and mist, immediately emanated, stirring up the approaching spiritual energy tide. "Each person has one hour, and then can rest for three hours. The others will be responsible for leading those who have rested on their journey."

Under the old man's arrangement, everyone was protected by the umbrella under the blue light, and then they continued to head north.

As the first day passed, the spiritual tide slowly dissipated, the sky brightened again, and the sea became calm. Everyone felt as if they had returned to another world.

Will I have to live like this every day from now on?
Although they were frightened by the harsh environment, they found effective ways to take refuge and were filled with confidence.

"If we stick together and take turns supporting each other, wouldn't we be able to get through this safely?"

Someone sneered and poured cold water on the idea: "Where are the pearls? Just hiding like this won't get you out of prison without enough pearls!"

The person who made the suggestion retorted, "Isn't there still an hour without tides today? Why don't we use that time to find the pearls?"

Someone pointed out: "The reason why pearls from oysters are hard to find is because oysters live in extremely deep water. Even without tides, seawater still has a strong tidal force, making it very difficult to search for oysters underwater. It takes a lot of time, and even if you work in a group, it is difficult to stay on the seabed for such a long time."

"The rules set here are bound to be difficult to follow, and you won't be able to get through this safely. Otherwise, this place wouldn't be a place of exile, but a resort paradise."

"What we can think of, others can think of too. We're not any smarter than others. If these things are so difficult to accomplish, then they must be very challenging..."

The person making the suggestion opened their mouth, seemingly somewhat unconvinced, but couldn't utter a rebuttal.

Yes, among so many disciples of the sect who have been exiled here, there are many strong ones. If they can think of a solution, why can't others think of one?

Am I the only one who is smart?
Lin Chen remained silent, thinking about the umbrella that had supported everyone earlier. He was vaguely certain that there must be a fixed place on that market island that could provide shelter from the wind and rain.

If taking turns supporting the magical artifact at sea can block the power of the tides, can't it be done on a fixed island?
