A small mountain-like flying ship was suspended above the ridge of the mountain. It had a length of more than four thousand feet. If one stood at the foot of the mountain and looked up, it would almost block half of the sky.
On the boat's body, there was a six-storey treasure pavilion lying horizontally on the boat's body. On the eaves of the four corners hung warning bells of gold and copper, complemented by bright pearls and precious stones. Thirty-six dragon-climbing short stakes poked their heads out from the side of the boat, glaring angrily and raising their beards.
The largest flying ship that Chu Jiu and Qiu Ju had seen was only 300 meters long, which was already extremely huge. He had never seen such a large ocean boat, almost comparable to the "Towering Cloud Watchtower" that the Yuanying cultivators rode. He was stunned on the spot.
However, as soon as the ship appeared, it immediately concealed itself. Obviously, it had been taken by the other party. From the beginning to the end, it had only been a breath or two of time. Many people only felt the ground beneath their feet shake, but when they looked around, they didn't notice anything unusual.
A rare look of envy appeared on Qiu Ju's face as he sighed, "This person actually has such a huge boat. Even if Guo Lie really wanted to find trouble with him, he would probably be able to defend for a long time with the restriction on the boat."
When Chu Jiu heard this, he was stunned for a moment before bursting into laughter.
Qiu Ju was baffled. "Why are you laughing? If this Senior Martial Brother Zhang steers the boat and leaves at this moment, where will your plan go? "
Chu Jiu smiled mysteriously and said, "Not necessarily. I've just thought of a way to make Guo Lie abandon us and follow this person. We can use this chance to escape."
Qiu Ju said in a muffled voice, "Although this Guo Lie is rash, he isn't someone we can easily manipulate."
Chu Jiu chuckled, "If I let Lady Shan and Cai Chuo sail my Mysterious Snake Nine Orifices Great Sea Boat out to sea, what do you think Guo Lie will do?"
Qiu Ju said without even thinking, "Guo Lie will definitely think that we are also on the boat, so he will chase after us …" At this point, he frowned and said, "If that's the case, we will not be able to escape. Although we can lure him away, won't we have no more boats to go out to sea? "
The corners of Chu Jiu's mouth curled up into an enigmatic smile as he said, "But when he finds out that the ones controlling this ship aren't the two of us, he'll definitely ask us where we are. I can take care of these two ladies in advance and tell them that we've left on Fellow Daoist Zhang's ship. Guo Lie would definitely believe it. After he leaves, the two women will turn the ship around and return to this island to receive us. In this way, we can escape. By the time Guo Lie discovers the truth, it will be too late. "
Qiu Ju pondered for a while and found that this method was really feasible. If Guo Lie knew about this, he would definitely turn around and chase after Zhang Yan in a hurry. He couldn't help but nod and say, "This method is feasible. I'm just afraid that in a fit of rage, Guo Lie might … "
Chu Jiu glanced at him and smiled. "Senior martial brother, don't worry. Guo Lie has always been proud of himself and has never killed a female cultivator. Otherwise, how would I dare to act like this?"
However, Qiu Ju was still hesitating. He still had a worry that he didn't voice out. {
The Mysterious Snake's Nine Orifices Great Sea Boat was bought by him and Chu Jiu, and they had spent a lot of spirit shells on it. If it was destroyed by Guo Lie, wouldn't they have lost everything?
Chu Jiu seemed to have seen through his thoughts and went forward to pat his shoulder. He said, "Senior martial brother, that Immortal Abode is rumored to appear in the near future. If we don't go early, I'm afraid those people will get there before us. Even if there is any risk, we have to give it a try."
Qiu Ju thought for a while and nodded. "That's the only way."
As soon as the Dragon Country Great Sea Boat revealed its true form, Zhang Yan knew that it was too eye-catching. Afraid that many people would covet it, he immediately put it away after the Artifact Restriction was opened. It turned into the hull of the boat and fell into his sleeve. Then, without waiting for daybreak, he wrapped Gu Chu Er in a profound light and left Sealed Prayer Island.
After traveling for a hundred miles, he saw the sun rising in the east, sprinkling down golden rays. There were fish leaping on the blue sea and white waves. It was already a vast sea and sky.
Seeing that there was no one around, he released the Dragon Country Great Sea Boat. It stretched out its four thousand feet long body and instantly raised a gust of wind. But even though the body of the boat was huge, it still looked like a lone boat in the vast sea.
Zhang Yan strolled around the boat. Seeing that the six floors of the treasure pavilion could accommodate over a thousand people, he arranged for Gu Chu Er to be on the lowest floor. He threw her a bottle of Fasting Pills and told her to cultivate well.
Then, he came to the highest pavilion on the sixth floor. There were no furnishings here, so it seemed empty. But he didn't care. He picked up the restriction talisman and spat a mouthful of Essence Qi on it. With a wave of his hand, the thirty-six Dragon Climbing Pillars that extended out of the side of the boat rotated with a rumble. A circle of light like the reflection of a lake instantly enveloped the boat, and it looked like the surface of the boat was covered with a layer of glazed flames.
Zhang Yan nodded his head in satisfaction. This sea boat was originally the main boat of the Flying Boat Celestial Market. Every piece of material had been tempered hundreds and thousands of times, and its sturdiness was no less than a magic treasure. With this layer of restriction, it could even resist some of the fiercest enemies. In addition, its speed wasn't slow either. Other than being too eye-catching, there were no other flaws.
He went straight to the cloud couch and sat down. Then, he took out a book from his sleeve. The first few pages of the book recorded the origins of the various external medicines that Elder Yan used to condense his core. The water of the Four Marquises was also recorded.
It was written, "Three hundred miles southeast of Egret Island, there is a black mountain. Every sixty years, heavenly water will appear. It is called the Four Marquises, and its nature is extremely virtuous …"
Seeing this, Zhang Yan pondered in his heart, "According to Elder Yan, this water will appear at the end of the year. It is now the eighth month. According to this book, after leaving Sealing Island, it will take about one and a half months to reach here. But I wonder where that Xiao Han is now? If I run into him, it seems that there will be a dispute. "
He put the book back into his sleeve. After thinking for a moment, he took out a beautiful jade and called out, "Is Fellow Daoist Beigong here?"
Half of Beigong Hao's Primordial Spirit floated out of the jade. He cupped his hands and said, "What business do you have with me?"
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Last night, when you were fighting with me, you used a few drops of Ren Kui Water Essence Qi. Where did you find them?"
This Ren Kui Water Essence Qi was exactly what was needed to cultivate the "Taixuan True Light". Other than searching for external medicines, he went out to travel for these five essences.
Beigong Hao didn't dare to not answer. He lowered his head and said, "Fellow Daoist, there is a Life-gathering Golden Stone in my Chongyue True Temple. Every day, it will produce dozens of drops of Ren Kui Water Essence Qi. Ordinary disciples can only get one or two drops. For an elder like me, I can get more than ten drops. Besides the ones that were absorbed by Fellow Daoist, I still have five drops in my sleeve."
Hearing the source of this Water Essence Qi, Zhang Yan shook his head. He didn't need to think about this Life-gathering Golden Stone. This item should be the foundation of Chongyue True Temple. He wasn't arrogant enough to steal it. If he wanted to get enough Water Essence Qi, he could only think of a way to get it from the disciples of Chongyue True Temple.
Beigong Hao was old and experienced. How could he not see through his plan? He hurriedly said, "Fellow Daoist Zhang, if you want this Water Essence Qi, there is actually a safer way."
Zhang Yan glanced at him and said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist Beigong, please speak your mind."
Beigong Hao hurriedly said, "If Fellow Daoist has enough money, you can go to the celestial market set up by my Chongyue True Temple. My Chongyue True Temple relies on this market to trade for many magic treasures and medicines. Fellow Daoist only needs to ask around and you will know that I'm not lying."
Zhang Yan stared at him for a moment and smiled faintly. He said, "It seems that even if Fellow Daoist lost his physical body, you still don't want to get your fellow disciples involved."
Hearing this, Beigong Hao smiled bitterly and shook his head. He said, "That's not really the case. In fact, I did have evil thoughts in my heart because I wanted to drag a few of my fellow disciples down with me. However, even if I didn't mention this, Fellow Daoist would find out sooner or later. I might as well say it now. "
However, Zhang Yan didn't comment. Although Beigong Hao's words were reasonable, he couldn't easily believe him. Especially when he was going to the territory of the Chongyue True Temple, he had to be even more careful. However, he didn't have the time right now, and it wasn't along the way. Even if he went there, he would have to wait until he obtained the Four Marquises Water before making any plans.
After the Chidragon ship traveled for more than ten days, a strong wind suddenly blew in the sky without warning. Then, dark clouds covered the sky like lead, and lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. Hurricanes swept across the sky, and heavy rain poured down. The raging waves rolled up dozens of feet high. For a moment, the sky and the sea were overturned, and thunder rumbled.
The Chidragon ship sailed steadily in the storm that could destroy a country and a city. The thirty-six Dragon Climbing Pillars rumbled and rolled, and the restrictive lights on the ship's body flowed continuously. It didn't shake at all.
The storm lasted for ten days and ten nights before it stopped. Fortunately, it was the Chidragon ship. If it was an ordinary ship, it would have fallen apart long ago.
Zhang Yan stood in the pavilion and looked out into the sky. He thought to himself, If I flew here alone, even if I could resist the power of heaven and earth, I'd probably be exhausted afterward. If an enemy came to find me, I'd be dead for sure on this boundless ocean.
Seeing that the storm gradually stopped, the clouds dispersed, and the sun hung high in the sky, he walked out of the main pavilion. As far as his eyes could see, he saw a Black Phosphorus Demon Python rolling and twisting on the deck.
The demon had the head of a python and the tail of a snake. There were no claws under its abdomen, only dozens of pairs of suckers that kept opening and closing. It looked extremely ferocious, and it let out a shrill cry as if it had been swept up by the wind and waves.
When it saw Zhang Yan, it hissed and whipped its long tail that was as thick as a bucket.
Zhang Yan smiled, and with a flick of his sleeve, a dozen drops of Dark Heavy Water flew out and struck the strange python's head in unison, instantly knocking it out and causing it to fall weakly to the ground.
This kind of demon that hadn't transformed yet could only bully people with its innate physique. It had no cultivation and was muddle-headed, so it could only bully ordinary people. In front of a cultivator like him, it was almost impossible for it to fight back.
Zhang Yan thought to himself, I'm lacking servants on this ship. I might as well catch more demons and feed them Form Transformation Pills. They can guard the ship for me, and I can cultivate with peace of mind.
Thinking up to this point, he flicked a Form Transformation Pill to the mouth of the strange python and left it alone.
However, he didn't know that at this moment, a hundred miles behind him, a huge bird rushed out of a dark cloud. On its back stood a strong man with a long upper body. He had thick eyebrows, a short beard, and a pair of sharp eyes. However, his clothes were tattered, and he looked extremely miserable. He wiped his mouth and spat out a mouthful of saliva, saying, "Junior, you actually dared to walk through this whirlpool. Do you want to die? I, your Master Guo, was careless and almost died because of you!"
