"It seems like you're quite rich."
Uncle Lin had actually asked for an exorbitant price and waited for Ye Chen to bargain. Three hundred yuan stones was his bottom line, but he hadn't expected that Ye Chen would agree without hesitation. What he didn't know was that Ye Chen had no concept of yuan stones. He thought that ten yuan stones was normal for a journey of ten thousand lightyears.
Since he had accepted Luo Yunyang's money, Uncle Lin said, "There is a luxurious room on the Blue Leaf. You can stay there. Also, you can enjoy the delicious food and wine in the lounge. If you don't like it, you can ask the chef to cook according to your instructions. I guarantee that you'll be satisfied."
The biggest use of a battleship puppet was for traveling. Its secondary use was to rest. The universe was vast. If one didn't have a battleship puppet, they would feel like they had been traveling their entire lives. With a battleship puppet, they could travel and cultivate at the same time. When they were free, they could even sit in the lounge and drink some wine and eat some good food.
"Young Master Ye, why are you stranded here alone?" While Uncle Lin and Ye Chen were talking, Lan Xin 'er was carefully sizing up Ye Chen. Ye Chen looked very young. At least on the surface, he seemed to be a year or two younger than Young Master Firebird. He looked to be in his early twenties. He was dressed in a spotless blue robe and had a treasured sword at his waist. Although the sword was still sheathed, it gave off a reserved feeling. Ye Chen's appearance was delicate and handsome. His face was slightly pale, and his eyes were as clear as a lake. However, they were deep and unfathomable. Based on appearance alone, Ye Chen couldn't be considered a peerlessly handsome man. However, in terms of temperament, Lan Xin' er had never seen anyone more outstanding than Ye Chen.
Ye Chen didn't want to lie to her, so he said, "I came from a faraway place. I plan to make a trip to the Firebird Planet. As for the details, I won't go into detail."
Lan Xin 'er nodded. Everyone had their own secrets. Since Luo Yunyang wasn't willing to tell her, she wouldn't force him. "Uncle Lin was being cautious, so I lied to you. We're going to the Firebird Planet."
"Since it's on the way, that's for the best. Thank you for your hospitality."
Ye Chen was already satisfied that the other party was willing to let him board the warship. As for the rest, it didn't matter.
The luxurious room on the Blue Leaf was indeed very luxurious. It was spacious enough, and there was even a huge bathing pool inside for bathing. Opposite the bathing pool was a five-meter-square crystal. Through the crystal, one could see the starry sky outside. Bathing and watching the starry sky at the same time was an enjoyable experience.
After taking a bath, Ye Chen began to cultivate.
He was not in a hurry to break through to the fourth layer. Although there was a certain chance of success, it would be too much for the gate to bear. By the time he tried to break through to the fifth layer, it would completely collapse. Every time he tried to break through to the next realm, he had to refine the gate to an extremely firm and stable state. During the battle with the Troll Emperor, Ye Chen had risked his life to break through to the third layer, which had already caused some cracks to appear in the gate. Although they were not obvious, they were still a hidden danger that could not be ignored.
Therefore, for a long time to come, he would not be able to break through to the Fourth Heavenly Layer. Only by condensing his Dao Gate to a very solid degree could he begin the next step.
However, although the realm could not be increased, it did not mean that his strength could not be increased.
The fourth style of Autumn Water Sword Arts, Autumn Water, was created because both the metal profound and water profound had reached perfection, but they had yet to be completely fused. The fusion of two profounds to perfection was much more difficult than he had imagined. Once he succeeded, its might would multiply, and it would not be any weaker than the current Merciless Water and Fire.
The third style of Vibrational Sword Arts, Sky Extinction Sword, had made great progress in the past year. With the completion of the metal profound, as long as the earth profound reached perfection as well, the Sky Extinction Sword would undergo a complete transformation. One sword strike would be able to shatter anything. This was his favorite sword move, and it had always been successful.
At present, Ye Chen's two strongest sword moves were Merciless Water and Instant Glory.
Merciless Water and Fire contained the water profound and fire profound. The water profound was already at perfection, while the fire profound was at great completion. Although the balance had been broken, its might had increased a lot. What he needed to do was to comprehend the fire profound to perfection as well. At that time, Merciless Water and Fire would be the real Merciless Water and Fire. It would be many times more powerful than ordinary top profound sword skills, and it could even be ten times more powerful. With one sword strike, it could burn and destroy everything.
As for Instant Glory, it was very special. This sword move contained the space profound, but Ye Chen's space profound was only at seventy percent completion. However, the power it could display was actually greater than Merciless Water and Fire. From this, it could be seen that the space profound was one of the strongest profounds, and it was not without reason. If Ye Chen's space profound could reach eighty or ninety percent completion, the power of Instant Glory would be unimaginable.
However, Ye Chen still felt that the Instant Glory, which only contained seventy percent of space profound, still had a lot of untapped potential. It was like a pile of ordinary iron. An ordinary blacksmith could only forge an ordinary iron sword, while a famous blacksmith could forge a well-tempered sword that could cut iron like mud. Space profound was different from other profounds. There were many areas that needed to be explored. One couldn't blindly focus on improving space profound. Instead, one should unearth the potential of space profound one by one. Only with a good foundation would one be able to go further in the future.
"One month is up. Let's go through space!"
In the control room, Lan Xiner used her soul imprint to control the Blue Leaf.
Buzz!
A spatial whirlpool appeared in front of the Blue Leaf. Slowly, the Blue Leaf entered it and disappeared.
…
Comprehending profounds on a battleship wasn't very realistic. Profounds were the operating laws of nature. One needed to observe and understand nature in order to improve.
Thus, Ye Chen set his sights on fusing profounds.
First was the Autumn Water Sword Art's fourth move, Autumn Water.
In the past year, he had gained a lot of comprehension in the fusion of metal profound and water profound. He was just a step away from the next step.
Half a month later, the door was finally kicked open.
With the perfect fusion of metal and water profounds, not only did the Autumn Water Sword Art's power double, but its attack form also became illusory. One couldn't tell the difference between real and fake. If the Merciless Water and Merciless Fire were purely destructive, then the Autumn Water Sword Art could kill without spilling blood. It was hard to tell which of the two moves was superior. Each had its own merits.
The Autumn Water Sword Art had been successfully completed. Next, Ye Chen focused all of his attention on Moment of Glory.
…
Time passed bit by bit. In the blink of an eye, three months had passed.
"It's a pity that I can't test the power of the Instant Glory here."
In the past three months, Ye Chen had improved a lot. He had unearthed the potential of the Instant Glory. Of course, this was mainly due to the accumulation of the past year.
"It's time to go out and take a walk."
After not going out for three months, Ye Chen felt that his body was a little rusty.
After opening the room door and walking through a long corridor, Ye Chen arrived at a luxurious hall. The hall of the Blue Leaf was located in the center of the puppet warship. It was 50 meters long and 30 meters wide. It wouldn't feel crowded even if it contained a few hundred people. The hall was brightly lit. About a hundred people were drinking tea and chatting. It was quite lively.
Ye Chen didn't attract much attention when he came out. There would be people entering the room to cultivate every day. On the other hand, there would be people coming out to drink and chat.
He found a seat, and soon, a waiter walked over.
"What would you like to drink and eat?"
Ye Chen opened the menu and said, "I'll have a bottle of supreme grade Star Wine and some dishes to go with it."
"You have to pay for supreme grade wine. The Star Wine is ten yuan stones per bottle."
Anything that was supreme grade would not be cheap. On the Blue Leaf, they could eat and drink as much as they wanted without paying, but supreme grade wine still had to be paid.
"Here."
Ye Chen didn't mind and gave the waiter ten yuan stones.
Soon, the dishes were served, and Ye Chen slowly enjoyed them.
"Young Master Firebird, your Fire Thunder Divine Fist is truly powerful. It killed a sentient second layer Life and Death Realm Giant Star Beast with one punch."
On the other side of the hall, a dozen Kings were talking and laughing.
"Actually, that Star Beast was not weak. If not for my Fire Thunder God Fist's improvement, I might not have been able to kill it in one punch."
A young man in fiery red clothes said modestly.
"You're too modest. Star Beasts usually don't have any intelligence, and those that do are extremely frightening. A Life and Death Second Layer Star Beast is completely comparable to a Life and Death King, but it still couldn't take one punch from you."
"Hehe, everyone is flattering me too much. Come, let's drink."
The young man called Young Master Firebird was very happy to be flattered and repeatedly raised his cup.
"Brother, when did you come in? How come I haven't seen you before?"
On Ye Chen's side, a King in his thirties walked over and asked suspiciously.
"I came here three months ago."
"So that's how it is. You should have followed a team on an expedition, but the team got into trouble and lost your puppet battleship, right?" The middle-aged King had seen this kind of situation many times. Not everyone had a puppet battleship. Only those big families or powerful Kings had the qualifications to own one. Without a puppet battleship, if one wanted to return, they could only hitch a ride. Of course, they would have to pay some yuan stones.
Ye Chen smiled but didn't explain.
Young Master Firebird's voice was too noisy, causing the middle-aged King to sigh with emotion, "That Young Master Firebird is indeed extraordinary. He's only at the peak of the third layer, but he already has such a frightening battle strength. Even a giant star beast that has cultivated to the second layer of Life and Death realm couldn't withstand one punch from him. It's said that he can contend against a fourth layer Heavenly King."
"Seems very powerful!"
"Of course! He is one of the top ten young heroes of Firebird Star. With his Fire Thunder God Fist, it's hard to find an opponent. However, you're so young, and your cultivation base is not inferior to Young Master Firebird. Seems like you're also a great genius."
The middle-aged King sized up Ye Chen and smiled.
"I was just lucky."
Ye Chen faintly smiled.
