"Master, we can take a small swift boat."
Soon, Gold Thug seemed to have recalled something as his eyes lit up.
"A small swift boat?"
Duan Lingtian was stunned.
Before he could learn the difference between a small swift boat and a large swift boat from Reincarnation Emperor Wu's memory, Gold Thug had already said, "A small swift boat can be twice as fast as a large swift boat when its speed is raised to the maximum!"
Twice as fast!
"In other words, if we take a small swift boat, we'll only need around 20 days to reach the mainland?"
Duan Lingtian's eyes lit up.
"Yes."
Gold Thug nodded.
"If that's the case, we'll take a small swift boat instead."
Duan Lingtian's eyes gleamed as he made up his mind. There was a hint of desire in the depth of his eyes. It was a desire for the Heavenly Jewel.
The Heavenly Jewel that was filled with Nature Energy was undoubtedly a timely help to him.
'Perhaps, the Heavenly Jewel is a turning point for me … Otherwise, with my current ability, it's almost impossible for me to break into the Yin Yang Sect and take Kerr and Little Fei'er away. '
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
Subsequently, Duan Lingtian took out a small swift boat from the Spatial Ring that Gold Thug had given him after removing the Master Ownership Claim. Subsequently, he let Feng Tianwu and Xiong Quan enter it.
"Senior!"
Duan Lingtian looked at the old man who was sitting far away and smiled. "Let me give you a ride."
The old man was the one who had warned him at the Ruo Shui Riverside.
Initially, the old man was a little anxious when he saw Duan Lingtian was going to take the small swift boat away.
If they encountered bandits later on, they would not be able to survive without the protection of Duan Lingtian's people.
Now that he heard Duan Lingtian calling him, he sighed in relief and stood up immediately. "Thank you, Master."
A moment later, the old man entered the small swift boat as well.
"Let's go."
Duan Lingtian called out to Gold Thug and was about to enter the small swift boat as well.
"Master, please give me a ride too!"
"Master, if we encounter bandits again after you leave, we'll be finished … Please bring us along."
"Master! Please bring us along. "
…
After a short while, everyone on the Yin Yang Sect's large swift boat stood up in unison and rushed towards Duan Lingtian. Each and every one of them had an anxious look on their faces as they were afraid that there wouldn't be enough space on the small swift boat if they were too slow.
Duan Lingtian glanced at these people indifferently, then ignored them and entered the small flying boat.
Not to mention that the other three small flying boats couldn't accommodate so many people. Even if they could, he had no obligation and responsibility to help these people.
Previously at the Ruo Shui Riverside, these people watched with folded arms when he was in danger. They weren't even willing to send him a voice transmission to warn him.
Their indifference made Duan Lingtian's heart turn cold.
Of course, Duan Lingtian didn't hate them. Everyone had their own choices and couldn't be forced.
Just like how he didn't plan to take these people away on a small flying boat.
"Hmph!"
Seeing that Duan Lingtian was ignoring these people, Gold Thug could not help but scoff. A majestic and vast airwave surged out of his body and pushed back the group of people who pounced on him.
"Master, I'm willing to pay 100 high-grade Origin Stones as long as you're willing to take me away!"
"Master, I'm willing to pay as well!"
…
The group of people who were pushed back saw that Gold Thug had also entered the small swift boat after pushing them back. The small swift boat had already ascended and left the large swift boat that they were in. Their expressions changed instantly.
Many of them even wanted to spend high-grade Origin Stones to board the small swift boat.
Unfortunately, after the small swift boat left the large swift boat, it didn't turn back. In a blink of an eye, it transformed into a bolt of lightning and disappeared before their eyes.
For a moment, despair filled the faces of the people on the large swift boat.
"Why is he willing to take that old man away but not me?!"
Someone said unwillingly.
For a moment, everyone realized this problem.
Unfortunately, this was destined to be a mystery in their hearts forever.
That day at the Ruo Shui Riverside, the old man had used Voice Transmission to warn Duan Lingtian. Duan Lingtian had cooperated and left no traces behind.
Therefore, nobody knew that Duan Lingtian had communicated with the old man and was grateful to him.
Whoosh!
The small swift boat pierced through the sky and headed north toward the Inner Land.
"That's fast!"
In the small swift boat, Xiong Quan looked at the swift boat beneath his feet in shock. "I can't believe that this inconspicuous fellow is so fast."
"If it's not fast, how can it chase after the large swift boats?"
Duan Lingtian said.
Xiong Quan finally understood.
He just remembered that Gold Thug was originally a bandit. He usually relied on these small swift boats to search for and hunt prey.
It would be unreasonable if his speed was slower than his prey.
"Thank you, Master."
The old man thanked Duan Lingtian again.
He knew that from the moment he boarded this small swift boat, he was destined to reach the Inner Land safely.
As for the other group of people, they would most likely die.
There was not a single person at the Martial Monarch Stage or above among them.
If they did not encounter the bandits on the Ruo Shui Riverside, they might be able to reach the Inner Land safely.
However, if they encountered any of the bandits on the Ruo Shui Riverside, they would definitely die!
"Senior, you don't have to thank me … If you didn't warn me at the Ruo Shui Riverside, I wouldn't have returned the favor today."
Duan Lingtian smiled faintly. "Where there's a cause, there's an effect."
"You reap what you sow … I'm glad that I warned you at that time."
The old man sighed with lingering fear in his heart.
He knew very well.
If he did not warn this purple-clad young man at the Ruo Shui Riverside, he would have to stay on the large swift boat and die with the group of people.
The speed of the small flying boat was very fast, which could be seen from the clouds in the sky.
As for the surroundings of the small flying boat, there was no reference object. There was only the boundless Ruo Shui River.
In the following days, Duan Lingtian immersed himself in his cultivation again.
Nine Dragons War Sovereign Technique, Divine Dragon Form!
He held the three Nature Profundity Fragments tightly in his hand. He was constantly comprehending and improving his Fused Profundity.
Apart from that, the comprehension of the Sword Dao that originated from the word 'Sword' in his mind increased as time passed.
"The Fused Profundity is like a bottomless pit … Even with the help of the three Nature Profundity Fragments, the progress is still so slow."
Soon after, Duan Lingtian discovered this.
The improvement of the Fused Profundity was much slower than the improvement of an ordinary Monarch Stage Profundity.
After a period of comprehension, Duan Ling Tian was completely certain of this.
"The Fused Profundity has the same strength as the Emperor Stage Profundity, but it's not as difficult to comprehend as the Emperor Stage Profundity, right?"
Duan Lingtian felt helpless when he thought of this.
He had tried to take out the Emperor Stage Wind Profundity Fragment that he had obtained from Emperor Wu's secret treasure. He wanted to use it to comprehend and improve his Fused Profundity, but he realized it was useless.
"It seems like the product of the five Monarch Stage Nature Profundities' fusion still belongs to the category of Monarch Stage Profundity. I can't improve it with the Emperor Stage Profundity Fragment."
The Emperor Stage Profundity Fragment was only helpful to Profundities above the Ninth Level Monarch Stage Profundity.
However, Duan Lingtian knew very well that there was no turning back for him now.
No matter how difficult it was to improve his Fused Profundity, he had to grit his teeth and continue to comprehend it. Even if he would be badly battered along the way.
This was because there was no turning back. There was no way for him to separate the Fused Profundity again.
It was quiet inside the small swift boat.
Everyone was immersed in their cultivation and comprehension of the Profundity.
Time passed by quietly.
Twenty days passed in a blink of an eye.
During these twenty days, they would occasionally encounter some robbers who were foolish enough to rob them. However, the Gold Thug easily dealt with them.
Some were killed by the Gold Thug while some were thrown into the Ruo Shui River.
They encountered two whirlpools along the way, but the Gold Thug easily dodged them with the small swift boat.
As the leader of the famous Four Henan Thugs south of the Ruo Shui River, the huge Ruo Shui River was no different from the Gold Thug's backyard.
"Master, we're here."
Duan Lingtian who was cultivating was awakened by the Gold Thug. When he snapped back to his senses, he realized they had crossed the Ruo Shui River and arrived at the Inner Land.
Subsequently, Feng Tianwu, Xiong Quan, and the old man woke up one by one as well.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
The few of them exited the small swift boat and realized they were already at the Ruo Shui River.
Naturally, the Ruo Shui River here was the Inner Land's Ruo Shui River.
This was the destination of Duan Lingtian and the rest. The Inner Land was also the central area of Cloud Continent where powerhouses were as common as clouds.
"This is the Inner Land."
Duan Lingtian narrowed his eyes and looked around.
Half of it was the Ruo Shui River while the other half was a boundless desert.
"Master, the Yin Yang Sect's station is over there. The Berserk Mongrel Rodent Clan's station is over there."
At this moment, the Gold Thug pointed in the northeast direction and then the northwest direction.
The Yin Yang Sect's station and the Berserk Mongrel Rodent Clan's station were in two different directions. One was in the northeast while the other was in the northwest.
"Senior, we're heading northwest … Is it convenient for you?"
Duan Lingtian looked at the old man and asked.
"I'm heading north."
The old man grinned and bade farewell to Duan Lingtian. "Sir, thank you for taking care of me throughout the journey … See you again."
"You'll regret it someday."
Duan Lingtian nodded and smiled back.
Whoosh!
After a while, the old man flew toward the north and soon disappeared before Duan Lingtian and the rest's eyes.
"Let's go."
Duan Lingtian called out to Feng Tianwu, Xiong Quan, and the Gold Thug. Then, he raised his hand and an invisible energy surged out and twined around Feng Tianwu's body, guiding Feng Tianwu toward the northeast direction.
Whoosh!
Duan Lingtian brought Feng Tianwu with him as he traveled at full speed. His entire person seemed to have transformed into a gigantic five-colored sword and disappeared into the northeast sky in just a moment.
"Let's go!"
Behind them, the Gold Thug raised his hand and followed along with Xiong Quan.
