When Song Zhong saw the cultivators on the 20 flying ships charging towards them like ants, he was not shocked but instead elated. He immediately ordered, "Four of you go and protect the flying formation. You must ensure that we can continue flying. The rest of you go inside and play hide and seek with these fellows. Anyway, with these people around, we don't have to be afraid of them destroying us. As long as we reach the East Sea, hehe! "
Although Song Zhong did not say it out loud, the nine Demonic Desire Witches knew what he meant. He wanted to rely on the demonic beasts of the East Sea to play these fellows to death. Hence, they all shouted excitedly before dispersing. Song Zhong also laughed coldly. Then, he went down from the top of the Gold Dragon Ship and retreated into the ship.
When the surrounding cultivators saw this, they were elated. They thought that Song Zhong was afraid. They all shouted and charged into the Gold Dragon Ship.
Although the Gold Dragon Ship was only three thousand feet long, in reality, the interior of the ship had been strengthened by spatial dao techniques. It was much bigger than what it looked like from the outside. Inside, there were layers upon layers, with countless rooms and corridors. Back then, SongZhong took about half a year's worth of time to walk around the place once. Hence, even if all the three to four thousand cultivators on the flying ships entered, there would be more than enough space to spare.
As the large group of cultivators entered, the Gold Dragon Ship, which had always been peaceful, started to bustle with activity. At this time, an unexpected but reasonable thing happened, and that was a dispute.
It turned out that there were many treasures in the interior of the Gold Dragon Ship. Any one of the potted plants were spiritual herbs. They were all around a thousand years old. In some of the larger gardens, there were even ten thousand years old spiritual herbs.
Other than that, the decorations and equipment in the Gold Dragon Ship were mostly treasures. Even the most ordinary wine flask was a spatial item. It looked small and exquisite on the outside, but it could contain hundreds of catties of wine. Furthermore, although some of the items were not treasures, the materials used to make them were extremely precious. It would not be a problem for them to be made into low-grade magic treasures. Only a Void Refinement Realm cultivator could build such a luxurious dragon boat. If it were someone else, they wouldn't even dare to think about it.
So many good things naturally aroused the greed of countless people, especially those sects that were not rich enough. They were like hungry ghosts that saw a mountain of meat and could not move at all. At this time, who cared about Song Zhong? They all started to fight for the treasures.
As for treasures, although there seemed to be a lot of them, how could they withstand the competition of thousands of people? Therefore, they soon began to quarrel over the treasures.
Although it was called a dispute, it was actually a crazy battle. One had to know that the cultivators here came from both righteous and demonic sects. Usually, when the two sides met, they would fight. Although they were temporarily united by Huolong Daoist with benefits, this kind of fragile alliance could not withstand the temptation of treasures.
Especially those from the evil sects. They didn't care about any agreements or deals. Seeing that there was an opportunity to take advantage of, he naturally did not hesitate to make a move. Moreover, the moment he made a move, many cultivators from the righteous sects were caught off guard and died tragically in their hands.
Of course, the people from the righteous sects were not to be bullied. Once they saw the people from the evil sects making a move, they naturally retaliated with a massacre.
Therefore, before Song Zhong could make a move, the Gold Dragon boat was already in a mess. In the beginning, it was a battle between the righteous and demonic sects. Later on, the evil sects started to fight with each other. The righteous sects also thought that there was a serious conflict of interest and hence, a fierce battle broke out. Therefore, this chaos quickly turned into a huge chaotic battle that spread throughout the entire Gold Dragon boat.
Song Zhong hid in the secret room and could clearly see everything that was happening outside. When he saw that those people had started to fight among themselves, he was stunned at first. Then, he was so happy that he almost couldn't tell north from south. Since these people were in a mess, it would be much easier for him.
Suddenly, Song Zhong rolled his eyes and thought of a sinister move. He immediately ordered the five sword cultivators of the Nine Beauties who were in charge of the travel notes to think of a way to possess the people of different sects. Then, they would deliberately cause trouble so that they would fight anyone they saw. In the end, they would kill each other until they were all finished.
Just as Song Zhong was happily drinking his wine and watching the show, Huolong Daoist, Huo Qing Yun and Daoist Lecher also boarded the Gold Dragon Boat. When they saw the mess in the dragon boat, they were all anxious to death. They didn't think that these so-called allies would immediately fight over some treasures as soon as they came in, causing chaos everywhere. What if Song Zhong took the opportunity to run away?
When he thought of this, Huolong Daoist anxiously shouted, "Fellow Daoists, fellow Daoists, don't fight. Capture Song Zhong and kill him first. After that, we can slowly distribute the remaining treasures. I guarantee that no one will be at a disadvantage!"
Huolong Daoist shouted until his throat was hoarse. Unfortunately, no one listened to him. Kill Song Zhong? Not to mention how cunning that kid was, just the Nine Beauties Painting and the defensive power of that huge bell was enough to make them suffer. Furthermore, that kid only had two spiritual treasures. If they killed him, who would they belong to? Wouldn't they still have to fight? In the end, no one knew who would benefit! If they had the time, they might as well grab the treasures in front of them. After all, ten mouthfuls of meat were not as good as one mouthful of meat!
When Huo Qing Yun saw this, she couldn't help but laugh bitterly. "Forget it. Whatever you say now is useless. They have no enmity with Song Zhong. If there are treasures, they can fight for them. No one is willing to give up the treasures in their hands to find trouble with that damn fatty."
"Damn it. Don't these idiots know that damn fatty has even more treasures on him?" Daoist Lecher said angrily. This person was a middle-aged man in a pink robe. He looked handsome and suave. The only flaw was that there was always a trace of lust in his eyes, which completely ruined his temperament.
"Sigh!" Huo Qing Yun sighed and said with a bitter laughter, "The Gold Dragon ship is so big, who knows where SongZhong has already hidden himself. If we want to find him, it is definitely not something that can be done in a short period of time. Of course, they won't give up the treasures in front of them just to find him. After all, we are only temporary allies. We can't force them. "
"Hmph, we should kill all these bastards!" Daoist Lecher couldn't help but say angrily.
"Forget it. Let's not talk about this anymore!" Huo Qing Yun was afraid that Daoist Lecher would get angry and start a fight with the other sects. If that happened, it would be even harder to find Song Zhong. Therefore, she quickly changed the topic. "Luckily, we have already taken control of the Gold Dragon Boat. Song Zhong is trapped here. As long as we seal off the surroundings and don't give him any chance to escape, we will be able to find him sooner or later!"
"That's right!" Daoist HuoLong also chimed in, "I don't believe that this darn fatty can still hide after destroying the Gold Dragon boat!"
"That makes sense!" Daoist Lecher nodded and said, "If that's the case, then we don't have to go in. Why don't we split into three groups to monitor this place so that this damn fatty won't be able to escape during the chaos!"
"Alright!" Huolong Daoist and Huo Qing Yun agreed. Then, they started to plan. Very quickly, they decided on the areas that they would be guarding. Then, they went their separate ways and led their disciples to wait outside the perimeter.
Actually, the idea that the three of them came up with was not too bad. In fact, it was a brilliant plan. This was because if they were to rush in to look for Song Zhong, they would easily get into a fight with the people inside who were already in a frenzy. This would make the situation even more complicated and might even give Song Zhong a chance to escape. If they were to guard the perimeter, they would not have to worry about Song Zhong escaping. They would also avoid getting into a fight with the lunatics inside. Therefore, it was a good plan that could kill two birds with one stone.
However, the problem was that the precondition of this plan was that Song Zhong would be alone and without help. He could only escape. Huo Qing Yun and the other two did not know that Song Zhong had already become the Crown Prince of the East Sea Empire. This was something that they did not even dare to dream of. Therefore, they were not prepared for it. As such, this gave SongZhong a heaven-sent opportunity.
Although the exterior of the Gold Dragon ship was heavily damaged, the flying formation inside was still intact. It was still operating, allowing the Gold Dragon ship to continue escaping towards the East Sea at a speed of around three thousand meters per second.
Inside the Gold Dragon ship, there were frenzied cultivators killing each other for the treasures. With them around, although the twenty flying ships outside had the ability to destroy the Gold Dragon ship, they would not open fire at all. These people were only focused on finding treasures. No one would intentionally destroy the flying formation. Even if there were people who went over, they would be quietly killed by the four nuns guarding the formation. Therefore, the Gold Dragon ship could continue to fly towards the East Sea safely.
Of course, the chaos inside the Gold Dragon ship did not last forever. After all, the people here were all old foxes. After fighting for a while, they realized that something was wrong. Too many people had died, but they did not get many treasures. Therefore, some of the crafty Nascent Soul cultivators wanted to stop fighting and obtain the treasures peacefully.
It was a pity that every time they had this thought, it would be immediately interrupted by an accident. It was either that the Jin Dan Elixir of this sect did not listen to the orders of the higher-ups and forcefully attacked their allies who had stopped fighting. Then, a very good treasure would suddenly appear between two groups of cultivators who had just stopped fighting. Then, for the ownership of this treasure, they would start fighting again. First, they would quarrel. Then, for some unknown reason, they would start fighting.
Such a story played out in various parts of the Gold Dragon ship. As a result, the cultivators who charged into the Gold Dragon ship never really stopped fighting. They were always fighting and fighting. Some of the more knowledgeable cultivators could tell that something was wrong. However, because they did not have any evidence, it was impossible for them to suppress such a huge commotion with their own prestige. Therefore, they could only let it happen.
Just like that, a few hours passed in the blink of an eye. Finally, the speeding Gold Dragon Boat finally flew out of the Infinite Boundless Mountains, arriving at the East Sea where jade waves rippled.
Originally, Huolong Daoist, Huo Qingyun and Daoist Lecher were all in a relaxed state. They waited on their respective flying ships and quietly watched as the Gold Dragon ship emitted thick smoke and sword light. They were actually not anxious at all. After all, Song Zhong had already become the public enemy of all human cultivators. There was no way anyone would save him. As long as they surrounded him and did not call for him, he would be discovered sooner or later. Therefore, they had all the time in the world. There was no need to be anxious.
However, when the Gold Dragon ship flew out of the Vast Mountains and into the East Sea, the three of them could not help but change their expressions. This was because the East Sea was the territory of the Demon Race. They could barely stay in the outer regions. However, once they entered the inner regions, even if the three of them were Nascent Soul cultivators, they might not be able to escape from the perverted Demon Race experts of the East Sea.
Once they thought of the huge Demon Race in the East Sea Empire, the three of them could no longer sit still. Huolong Daoist could not help but frown, "Why is this Gold Dragon ship still not stopping? If we continue flying for a while more, we will enter the inner regions of the East Sea Empire. I don't want to alarm those crazy Demon Beasts! "
"No one wants to go against them. I don't want to either!" Daoist Lecher immediately frowned as well.
"Something doesn't seem right. This darn fatty can't be thinking of luring us into the East Sea Empire, right?" Huo Qingyun suddenly said.
"Aiya!" With Huo Qingyun's reminder, Daoist Lecher and Huolong Daoist became alert. They did not dare to delay any longer and went to the front to observe. Indeed, they realized that something was amiss.
"Damn it. Although this Gold Dragon ship looks tattered, its speed is not affected at all. Furthermore, it is heading straight into the depths of the East Sea. If you say that no one is controlling it, I won't believe it even if you beat me to death! "Daoist Lecher frowned.
"No, we can't go on like this. We have to stop the Gold Dragon ship!" Huo Qingyun said.
"But the array that controls the ship is inside the Gold Dragon ship. It's a mess inside. How are we going to charge in?" Daoist Lecher said helplessly.
"We have to charge in even if we can't!" Huolong Daoist said fiercely, "It's better than waiting for death!"
"Why don't I persuade them first?" Huo Qingyun then said, "Who knows, they might realize the danger they are in and stop fighting!"
"Alright!" Huolong Daoist and Daoist Lecher nodded their heads.
Huo Qingyun then circulated her powers and shouted, "Fellow Daoists, please listen to me for a moment. We have already entered the depths of the East Sea. If we continue flying, we will reach the center of the East Sea in a few hours. At that time, we will definitely attract countless Demon Beasts. None of us will be able to escape!"
"Fellow Daoists, this must be Song Zhong's scheme. He obviously wants us to fight to the death with the Demon Beasts so that he can take the opportunity to escape. We must not fall for his trick!" Daoist Lecher said.
"That's right. Song Zhong, that bastard, wants to use the Demon Beasts to kill us. We must not let him do as he wishes!" Huolong Daoist said hurriedly.
The three Sect Leaders shouted together and attracted the attention of many cultivators on the Gold Dragon ship. Although the treasures were important, their lives were more important. The strength of the East Sea Demon Beasts was deeply ingrained in everyone's hearts. No one dared to underestimate them. Even Nascent Soul Realm experts would not be able to survive after entering the center of the East Sea.
Some of the more knowledgeable experts immediately stopped and shouted, "According to the three Sect Leaders, what should we do?"
"Simple. As long as you destroy the flying array on the Gold Dragon ship, the Gold Dragon ship will stop. At that time, no matter what you do, it won't matter!" Huo Qingyun said with a smile.
"Mm, that makes sense! I agree! "
"I agree too!"
"Agreed!" Under the pressure of the Demon Beasts, the cultivators on the Gold Dragon ship quickly chose to cooperate.
Seeing that they were willing to cooperate, Huo Qingyun and the rest were overjoyed. She hurriedly said, "That's great. Everyone, please stop fighting and destroy the flying array on the Gold Dragon ship first!"
"Mm, mm!" The cultivators on the Gold Dragon ship stopped fighting amidst the tense atmosphere. They agreed that before they destroyed the flying array on the Gold Dragon ship, no one was to attack. Otherwise, they would all be killed.
This agreement was good. The disciples of the various sects would definitely obey the orders of their superiors. However, could this guarantee that nothing would happen? Obviously not.
For example, at a certain intersection within the Gold Dragon ship, two groups of cultivators met. There were seven to eight people on each side and they were all led by Jin Dan Elixir. Although they had just fought a huge battle and had brothers who died in the hands of their opponents, the hatred between them was as deep as the sea. However, because of the orders from their superiors, they did not fight when they met. They only broke out in cold sweat and brushed past each other.
Of course, when they passed each other, both sides were extremely cautious. They were afraid that they would be ambushed by the other party. However, the more they were afraid of something, the more it would happen. When the two groups of people had almost all passed by, the last righteous cultivator suddenly let out a muffled groan the moment he passed by the last person on the other side, and then fell to the ground, unable to get up.
After seeing this scene, the two sides, who had long been at loggerheads, did not hesitate at all and attacked with all their might. The Righteous Sect cultivators thought that the Evil Sect cultivators had violated the agreement and ambushed their own disciples. On the other hand, the Evil Sect cultivators thought that it was their superiors who ambushed them. Hence, they attacked as well, afraid that they would not cooperate well enough.
As such, the two groups of cultivators started fighting again. Sword radiance flashed in all directions. All sorts of Dao techniques were used in the corridors. The loud noises alerted the surrounding disciples.
They rushed over to take a look. In the end, they realized that their own people were fighting with their enemies. Was there a need to ask? Of course, they would help! As such, more and more people from both sides joined in. In the end, it became a huge battle royale.
Once both sides started fighting, they naturally gave it their all. They only wanted to use everything they had learned. As for whether the opponent was an enemy or not, they did not have the time to identify them. In short, if it was someone they were not familiar with, they would just kill.
As such, even some cultivators who were passing by were caught in the crossfire. They had no choice but to join in the fight. Then, they died in the midst of the chaos. And their deaths implicated the sects behind them. Hence, the battle royale became even more chaotic. The scale of the battle also continued to expand.
And such battles did not only happen in one place. There were a total of five places where such battles happened. The eruptions of these battles were extremely strange. Many of them were simply inexplicable. (To be continued. If you want to know what happened next, please go to www.qidian.com. There are more chapters. Support the author.
