My Augmented Statuses Have Unlimited Duration

The maidservant poured the blood into the sea, and a faint smell of blood spread out.

Under the distant sea, a palm-sized oval white stone moved.

A few patterns appeared on the surface of the rock. Following the patterns, the rock gradually unfolded two pincers and eight legs, turning into a white crab.

Then, all the rocks in the sea began to tremble. More and more crabs recovered their original forms.

Under the guidance of the bloody smell, they began to swim towards the direction of the blood like waves.

From the front, they looked like a group of crabs, but if one turned them over, they would discover that there was a ghost-like face in their stomachs.

When they approached their prey, the ghost face would open its mouth and bite the flesh with the fangs inside.

It was naturally nothing if there were few of them, but once such creatures reached a scale, they would become extremely terrifying.

Not long after, beside the wooden ship that was salvaging the shell, the water surface was still slightly murky, but the people on the ship gradually sensed that something was wrong.

“Hey, don’t you think they’ve been holding their breath for too long?” “They might be competing. These old fellows are the most dishonest.” “Xiao An, go down and see what’s going on. Tell them to stop playing.”

These soldiers were all elites among elites. All of them were martial artists and more than half of them had internal force.

Although it could not be compared to cultivation, it could still make them much stronger than ordinary people. It was not difficult for internal experts who were good at water to stay underwater for fifteen minutes.

However, this dive was a little too long.

The general called a resting martial artist to go down and see the situation.

The young man called Xiao An was also very obedient.

He took off his shirt and plunged into the sea.

Time passed bit by bit. Another few minutes passed, but there was still no movement on the water surface.

Everyone’s uneasiness began to spread. The soldiers who were cracking clams to find the black pearl on the deck also ran to the window and looked down.

After another few minutes, a hand suddenly stretched out of the water. However, Xiao An splashed the water a few times and sank weakly.

A rope flew out in time and wrapped around Xiao An’s wrist. Everyone pulled the rope together and quickly pulled him back to the shore.

When this young man was dragged out of the water, all the surrounding soldiers could not help but gasp at the scene before their eyes.

The flesh on the lower half of Xiao An’s body was blurry. Pale bones were even visible in many places. Most of the flesh had been eaten by unknown creatures.

Before they could mourn for their companions, they discovered that the surrounding sea began to tremble violently, and a stream of blood surged up from below.

Then, a jarring sound came from the bottom of the ship. A large number of sharp objects were destroying their ship.

Before anyone could react, the ship shook and slowly sank.

Their experience told them a terrible truth. The bottom of the ship had leaked, a huge leak!

A few more screams came from the cabin below the deck. The few soldiers and crew members who were arranging supplies below had clearly been killed.

“Everyone, protect the princess!”

“Bring people down to the bottom to repair the ship. If the ship sinks, all of us will die!”

“What’s that? First mate, something is coming our way.”

“Ghost faced crabs!! Those are ghost faced crabs!”

It was not only the bottom of the ship that was affected. White crabs began to crawl all over the sides of the ship.

The carapace of these crabs was extremely hard. Ordinary swords were unable to injure them at all. They attacked everyone they saw and could eat a living person alive in less than 20 breaths.

Only General Yu had a bit of Qi Refinement cultivation. Although the weapon in his hand was not an artifact, it was still forged from low-end materials of the cultivation world. With the incomplete sword technique of a cultivator, he could kill ghost faced crabs one after another.

However, compared to the number of crabs, the effect was insignificant.

The commotion outside finally alerted Jian MO, Elder Jiao, and the others in the cabin.

“Damn it, how did we provoke such monsters!”

“Retreat! Everyone, retreat!”

Elder Jiao’s intact right leg kicked off the deck and jumped into the air. He took out a bottle of powder and used his spiritual qi to activate it before slapping his palm at the large number of ghost faced crabs at the bow.

The powder scattered and immediately turned into a piece of coral, imprisoning the crabs on the spot.

However, before he could heave a sigh of relief, more crabs crawled towards them on the coral.

The cabin door behind him was also easily chewed into pieces like tofu.

Another large number of white crabs surged out of the cabin.

The few crew members closest to him were directly covered in crabs and died amidst screams.

“Princess, I’ve already returned the favor of saving my life after all these years. See you again!”

With that said, he used a light movement technique to jump more than a hundred feet and landed on the paper boat.

This scene stunned Jiang Li who was in the cabin. That Elder Jiao had actually fled because of these few crabs?

Only the dozen soldiers and the princess who were desperately resisting the ghost faced crabs were left.

Moreover, he was a Foundation Establishment cultivator after all. Why did he not even have a decent flying artifact? Wasn’t it a little too much to only have a paper ship?

This was also Jiang Li’s mistake.

When he had just stepped into the cultivation world, he joined the Scripture Storage Valley. After becoming an inner sect disciple, he had never experienced such hardships again.

However, in fact, it was quite difficult for ordinary rogue cultivators to obtain an artifact.

Even when he had just entered the sect, he had also used unranked chains for a period of time. Most of the low-level cultivators in the cultivation world could very likely only use these things in their lives.

However, after he took over, the Great Mountain Alliance had obtained a large number of spirit stones and supplies several times. Now, as long as they chose to join the Great Mountain Alliance, even the lowest-level cultivators would live comfortably.

Everyone had medicinal pills to eat and artifacts to use. Compared to other places, it was already too fortunate.

Putting aside these sighs, it was time for him to save the situation.

On the deck, General Yu’s right arm had been bitten by the ghost faced crab. A piece of flesh was missing, and he could only use his left hand to hold the sword.

The seawater that surged up had already passed their knees, preventing them from seeing the exact location of the crabs. The situation became even more precarious.

A group of ghost faced crabs gathered together, turning into a white wave that surged towards them.

It was as if they were going to eat the remaining people into bones in the next moment.

At this moment, a green light arrived first, bypassing them and destroying the crab tide.

who was holding a green vine, walked out from behind.

His brows were furrowed and his face was pale, as if using his spiritual qi had aggravated his injuries again.

“Sir Li Jiang!”

When the remaining few people saw Jiang Li attack, they immediately reignited their hope and shouted out the name that Jiang Li had casually fabricated for them.

Jiang Li did not disappoint. He muttered something as spiritual light erupted from his hand. A talisman slapped the ship, and the wooden ship that was about to completely sink into the water actually started to float again.

A large amount of seawater was poured out, revealing white crabs crawling all over the ship.

did not stop. He lashed out the vine whip again and again, sweeping away all the ghost faced crabs on the ship.

To Jiang Li, their so-called sturdy carapace was not any tougher than an eggshell. They completely turned into crab paste in the air.

Then, the power of a talisman allowed the entire wooden ship to float away from the sea filled with countless ghost faced crabs.

After losing their target, the remaining ghost faced crabs were immediately attracted by a paper ship on the other side. They turned into a white wave and chased after Elder Jiao.

The Foundation Establishment cultivator who had left the cultivation world for more than ten years died under the waves of the ghost faced crabs.

On the deck, the talisman stuck to the ship seemed to be unable to withstand the weight of the ship and had already begun to burn.

looked like he was controlling the wooden ship with extreme difficulty. He flew all the way to a small island not far away and finally landed on the white beach.

Finally out of danger, there were only seven survivors left.

Jian MO, the maidservant Xiao Lian, General Yu, and four soldiers.

They stood up from the deck in a daze. Before they could rejoice at having survived the calamity, they discovered that “Sir Li Jiang”, who had just displayed his might, was meditating on the spot with a pale face.

“Oh no, before Sir’s injuries recovered, he forcefully used his spiritual qi, causing his injuries to relapse!” “Sir, we can’t repay your kindness!” “Don’t approach, don’t disturb Sir!”

“We have medicine and clean cloths in the cabin. Xiao Lian, go find them and treat the general and soldiers first.”

“After dealing with the injuries, we will work hard to deal with the corpses on the ship first in case the ghost faced crabs come again.”

<table><tbody><tr><td width="153"></td></tr><tr><td></td><td></td></tr></tbody></table>

The few people who had survived the calamity did not dare to relax. After hurriedly treating their wounds, they began to clean the corpses on the ship.

They should have known that the crabs would come ashore. If those crabs discovered them, ten lives would not be enough.

At this moment, a soldier discovered that Xiao An, who had jumped into the water earlier, was holding a clam shell the size of an adult’s head.

He took out the dagger on his body and stabbed it into the gap of the shell. After skillfully cutting the muscles, he opened the huge shell.

Immediately, a dark light entered his eyes.

“Princess! First mate! Black pearl! We found the black pearl!”

The soldier excitedly dug out a round and pure black pearl from the shell.

The others immediately came over when they heard this, their faces filled with excitement. Wasn’t this the purpose of their voyage?

“Such a huge black pearl needs at least 300 years to reach such a quality.”

“How unfortunate. If only we could find it earlier…”

After obtaining the treasure they yearned for, their expressions dimmed when they recalled their current situation.

So what if they found the black pearl?

Now that their ship was destroyed and only seven people were left, how could they send this pearl back?

Looking at the black pearl in her hand and then at “Sir Li Jiang” who was meditating in the middle of the deck, Jian MO made a difficult decision.

At night, the heavily injured Li Jiang finally woke up from his meditation.

However, as soon as he moved, he spat out a mouthful of blood. He collapsed to the ground and could not stand up. His condition still looked extremely terrible.

“Sir Li Jiang! How are you?”

Jiang Li displayed a weak appearance with great difficulty, shaking his head with a bitter smile.

“If I’m not injured, those things can be killed with a flip of my hand.”

“Unfortunately, I was heavily injured in the storm. Now that I forcefully mobilized my spiritual qi and injured my inner foundation, I’m afraid I can’t make it anymore.”

Everyone revealed sorrowful expressions when they heard this because if Jiang Li fell here, all of them would be finished.

Not to mention sending the pearl back, it was a huge problem if they could see the sun tomorrow.

At this moment, the illegitimate princess, Jian MO, held the black pearl in her hand and handed it to Jiang Li respectfully.

“Sir Li Jiang, can this black pearl help you heal your injuries?”

Jiang Li looked at the pearl that he had stuffed into the shell himself and showed a look of surprise.

“This is a 300-year-old black pearl!”

“The black pearl is a sacred healing item. It can indeed be very helpful to me now.”

“But, isn’t this something to save your mother? If you give it to me, what will happen to your mother?”

“Moreover, each area can only produce one black pearl at the same time. If you give it to me, you might not be able to find a second one.”

When she heard Jiang Li, Jian MO’s expression dimmed, but in the end, she made her decision.

“Sir Li Jiang saved our lives. You could have left on your own.”

“In order to save us, it caused the injuries to relapse. How can I still save this pearl and ignore your injuries?”

“Moreover, if you can’t recover from your injuries, we won’t have the ability to return alive. Please don’t decline.”

After saying that, she stubbornly handed the pearl to Jiang Li.

The reason why Jian MO had decided to give the black pearl to Jiang Li to heal was definitely because of the second reason.

However, Jiang Li still had a touched expression on his face.

“Miss Jian MO, you have a heart of gold.”

“Don’t worry, I possess medicinal skills. When my injuries are stable, I’ll accompany you to visit your mother and treat her personally.” Hearing Jiang Li’s guarantee, hope flickered in Jian MO’s eyes.

With such an “Immortal Master” taking action, why would she worry about her mother’s illness being incurable? She immediately knelt down and kowtowed deeply to Jiang Li..
