After the Primordial Essence in his Dantian was exhausted, he could absorb some from the surrounding environment. However, this was the shipwreck area of Cloud Listening Mystic Realm, so it was impossible to absorb Primordial Essence from the surroundings. Therefore, Du Feng had to take out a bottle of elixir and pour it into his mouth before continuing to inject Primordial Essence into the runes.
He had a feeling that as long as he activated ten runes, there would definitely be some changes. However, the more runes he activated, the more difficult it was to activate. Before he could digest the elixir, the Primordial Essence in his body was exhausted again. After spending so much effort, he had just activated the ninth rune.
There was still one rune left. As long as the tenth rune was activated, something would definitely happen.
Du Feng made up his mind and took out a relatively large Phoenix Diamond and held it in his arms. He freed his right hand and continued to activate the runes in the cabin. The tenth rune slowly lit up.
"Buzz, buzz, buzz …"
When the tenth rune was completely lit up, the hull didn't shake this time. Instead, a secret compartment in the cabin slowly opened.
Du Feng took a look and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Because he knew what was in this secret compartment. It was the ship's engine room. To put it bluntly, it was a place to add Immortal Stones. According to the specifications, to drive this stone ship, at least high-grade Immortal Stones were needed. This was reasonable. If such a large ship was driven by human Martial Artists' Primordial Essence, a lot of people would die of exhaustion.
If there were second-grade Immortal Stones, the effect would be better. However, the best Immortal Stones Du Feng currently had were first-grade high-grade Immortal Stones, which were those Phoenix Diamonds. This was because he had made a fortune in the Qiankun Small World. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to take out so many high-grade Immortal Stones.
Since the engine room was opened, Du Feng couldn't help but want to try it out.
He took out a skull-sized high-grade Immortal Stone and threw it into the engine room. He heard a loud rumble as if a giant beast had woken up. Strangely, there was also a roar in the distance at the same time. Du Feng listened carefully. It wasn't the sound around him, and the sunken ships around him didn't move.
Perhaps it was an echo from the bottom of the sea. Du Feng could only think so.
Such a large high-grade Immortal Stone was equivalent to hundreds of ordinary Immortal Stones. However, the stone ship only let out a rumble. It had no intention of floating up, much less moving forward.
Du Feng scanned the interior of the cabin. A few more runes had been activated. Just now, he had only activated ten runes after working so hard for so long, but when he threw a large high-grade immortal stone into the engine compartment, 15 runes were directly activated. It sounded like a lot, but compared to the total of 9,999, it was still pitifully small.
Damn it! Du Feng clenched his teeth and made up his mind. Then, he took out a pile of high-grade immortal stones of various sizes. They were all Phoenix Diamonds that he had obtained from the Qiankun Small World. He threw them all into the engine compartment.
But this time, so many high grade immortal stones went in, but there wasn't even a sound. However, Du Feng noticed that he had activated more than a hundred runes when he had thrown the runes around randomly. He could even feel that the ship had become slightly lighter.
It was effective, it was indeed effective. Du Feng couldn't contain his excitement. If he could really move this stone ship from hundreds of thousands of years ago, how would it feel? Not to mention how sturdy the material of the ship was, just the inertia of the heavy ship was not to be underestimated. Piloting a ship of this level in the sea of clouds would truly be unstoppable.
Du Feng was a Formation Master, so he knew very well. If these runes could really be activated, the stone ship wouldn't just be able to float on the sea. It wouldn't be a problem to move in the water or fly in the air. At that time, even if it was a high mountain or in the sky, he could take the risk by piloting the ship.
There were many dangerous places in the Cloud Sea that he had never been to. There would definitely be more and better treasures there. So what if he had some high-grade immortal stones? Money could be earned again anyway.
At the thought of this, Du Feng threw caution to the wind. He continuously took out high-grade immortal stones from his necklace and threw them into the engine compartment. Actually, every time he threw one, his heart was bleeding. But for the sake of a bigger goal, he could only bear with it.
The runes on the ship were quickly activated and Du Feng's immortal stones were getting lesser and lesser. One must know that when he first came to the Heaven Realm, he was an invisible tycoon. Even in the Immortal City, he didn't lack money. After coming to the Feather Immortal Sect, he only wanted to earn sect contribution points. He wasn't interested in money.
But after this, he was probably going to become a pauper. Because large amounts of high-grade immortal stones were thrown into the engine compartment, his stock was getting lesser and lesser. Back then, all the effort he put in in the Qian Kun Small World might go down the drain.
The runes on the stone ship had indeed been activated, but it wasn't fully activated. His high-grade immortal stones were about to be used up. If the ship still couldn't be activated, then he would lose everything. Du Feng's heart was bleeding and he was in so much pain that he was gritting his teeth.
Since he had already thrown so much, he might as well throw them all in. At most, he would just have to start all over again.
Therefore, Du Feng might as well not look at them anymore and throw them in with his eyes closed. He threw all of the remaining high-grade immortal stones, including some of the broken ones, into the engine compartment. After throwing it, he opened his eyes and saw that the runes on the ship's body were still not fully activated. He was indeed in despair.
Forget it, it was nothing more than a gamble. If he was willing to gamble, he would have to admit defeat. If he lost the money, he would just have to earn it back.
Du Feng's current strength wasn't considered weak. If he went to other places to find something to sell, he would be able to exchange for quite a bit of money. Furthermore, he had a large pile of low and middle grade immortal stones. Those who wanted to rob Du Feng previously and were killed by him also had equipment that wasn't good. They could all be sold.
Although Du Feng was more open-minded, it still sounded a little sad to rely on selling equipment to survive.
"Sigh …"
He sighed and closed the engine compartment, planning to go somewhere else to see if he could find anything.
"Woo, woo, woo …"
Just as the lid of the engine compartment was closed, the stone ship let out a whistle. Then, the entire ship shook violently and started to float upwards.
What's going on? Du Feng hurriedly held onto the table beside him. Just now, he thought that it was a complete failure and that he had lost all of his immortal stones. He didn't expect the stone ship to suddenly start moving and float up so quickly. Once his stone ship floated up, the seal of the underwater city would be opened and a large amount of seawater would pour in.
"Shit, run!"
