Zhang Tie left Liuying Town on the evening of June 7. After 2 days on the road, he arrived at Ailian City which was over 5,000 miles away from Liuying Town on June 9.
Ailian City was a Class A city. This city was also the traffic hub between Yongzhou Province and the western provinces of Taixia Country.
The so-called traffic hub meant that anyone who wanted to go to the western provinces of Taixia Country could buy the corresponding airship tickets in this city.
Zhang Tie was going to Force Province.
Force Province was almost 250,000 miles away from Yongzhou Province in the northwest of Taixia Country.
As one of the top provinces in Taixia Country, Force Province was a key military city in Taixia Country. The entrance of the Earth-elements Realm of Taixia Country was in Force Province.
Not only in Taixia Country, but also in the entire human world, Force Province was also one of the most famous places among humans.
All the top four armies of Taixia Country had powerful troops in Force Province. Besides the top four armies, Taixia Country had over 1.5 billion regular soldiers in Force Province. Therefore, Force Province was named Force Province.
The airship from Ailian City in Yongzhou Province to Force Province would take off once every 7 days. When Zhang Tie arrived at Ailian City, there were 3 days left before the next airship would leave the harbor. Zhang Tie spent 268 gold coins on a super deluxe berth class ticket to Force Province. After that, he settled in a hotel in the western airport of Ailian City and cultivated while waiting for the day to board the airship.
Purgatory Samsara Method proved Zhang Tie's conjecture, namely, in far-ancient times, besides elements-gathering matrix, people had also developed a more efficient way to absorb the four elements.
After grasping the Purgatory Samsara Method, Zhang Tie's efficiency in absorbing earth-elements crystals increased by 4 times at once. Previously, it took Zhang Tie 2 hours to absorb an earth-elements crystal; however, it only took him half an hour to absorb all the earth elements in a high-quality earth-elements crystal.
Of course, such a high efficiency was achieved with the support of his multitasking skill and his powerful spiritual energy. Besides Zhang Tie, nobody else across Taixia Country could absorb earth-element crystals at such a high speed. Even his master Zhao Yuan might not be able to do it, because such a powerful multitasking skill was Zhang Tie's unique secret skill.
With such a high efficiency, Zhang Tie could absorb over 40 earth-element crystals a day if he cultivated wholeheartedly. In this state, it would take Zhang Tie about 8 days to light one scale. As a result, his cultivation speed and consumption of earth-element crystals accelerated abruptly. At the same time, Zhang Tie could finally light the second chakra of King Roc Sutra which always gave him a headache.
Zhang Tie only stored over 9,000 earth-element crystals, which were not enough for him to promote to 30 scales. Even if he consumed all of them, he would still be far away from forming the second chakra. Therefore, Zhang Tie chose to go to the Earth-elements Realm.
The distance between Yongzhou Province and Military Province was about 250,000 miles. Previously, Zhang Tie could also fly there. It would take him over 10 days at most; however, Zhang Tie didn't want to cause any trouble at this moment. Therefore, he chose to travel by airship.
From Yongzhou Province to Military Province, even if they took the best and fastest airship in Taixia Country, plus the replenishment time, it would take them about 4 months to travel from Yongzhou Province to Military Province. Zhang Tie estimated that he could cultivate well on the airship during this period of time.
On June 12th, after cultivating for 3 days and absorbing over 120 earth-element crystals, Zhang Tie checked out of the hotel early in the morning and came to the underground gate of the airship on time.
There was only one passageway leading to the ground. Two beautiful stewardesses were checking tickets at the entrance of the passageway.
There was a short queue in the passageway. Zhang Tie's height and figure made him eye-catching wherever he went.
"Sir, please show me your airship ticket!"
Finally, it was Zhang Tie's turn. With the sweet smile of the stewardess, Zhang Tie passed his super deluxe berth ticket to her.
After checking it, the stewardess punched a hole on the ticket before returning it to Zhang Tie, "Please keep your ticket. Before the airship takes off, there's one more check!"
Zhang Tie nodded in a cool way.
"Do you need to check your luggage?" The stewardess threw a glance at the simple military luggage in Zhang Tie's hand.
The military luggage was not small; however, it was as small as a kid's schoolbag in Zhang Tie's hand.
Of course, Zhang Tie had a space-teleportation equipment. However, it was too eye-catching; especially for a knight who was not famous before. In order to avoid trouble, Zhang Tie didn't expose his space-teleportation equipment; instead, he carried such a military luggage which was filled with some clothes and spare shoes. Even though knights didn't want to be regarded as beggars, they should at least have a change of clothes. Now that Zhang Tie didn't want to expose his space-teleportation equipment, he couldn't show it out of thin air every time he needed it.
"No need!"
"Please board the airship from this side. Your cabin number is Heaven No. 17. Wish you a pleasant journey!"
Zhang Tie then took the luggage and walked to the ground from the tunnel.
Right on the ground, a huge indigo rigid airship was parked close to the exit of the underground tunnel.
That airship was too large. The fury-level airship that Huaiyuan Palace was proud of was only half as large as this airship. Additionally, compared to fury-level airships, the shape of this airship's air sacs was very special. Common airships' air sacs were always full because they needed to be inflated; however, this airship's air sacs were like the folds on the surface of the bellows of accordion, which were bulging and concave. The entire air sacs were collapsing inward.
Zhang Tie glanced at this airship for a short while seriously.
This was an airship with the highest technical content in the world — — vacuum airship.
Common airships were filled with air sacs that were lighter than air; however, vacuum airships directly turned the sacs of airships into vacuum and flew in the air using the floating effect of the vacuum sacs.
Vacuum airships could carry greater loads than common airships and had a longer voyage. Of course, they were more difficult to produce. In this age, besides Taixia Country, no other human country could produce vacuum airships. Facing the powerful airship manufacturing industry in Taixia Country, Zhang Tie's dad's small airship manufacturing factory lost its competitiveness after coming to Taixia Country and had to close down.
After glancing at the airship for a short while, Zhang Tie walked to the hatch of the airship with his luggage and entered this huge airship … (What a great activity!
