(It's the last day of October, Six Paths is looking for more subscriptions)
The blue sky and white clouds seemed to be within reach.
It was a very big ship. It looked like it was made of wood, but it wasn't. It was a low-grade Spiritual Artifact ship. It was brown in color, and other than its size, it didn't have any obvious features. It looked very ordinary.
But in fact, it wasn't an ordinary ship, but an intercontinental flying ship. It was a carrier ship used to travel between Linhai Continent and Taiyuan Continent. It had a fixed route and specialized in transporting valuable goods and people.
The air was like water. The Gale intercontinental airship sped past at an extremely fast speed, splitting the air in front of it and creating countless air waves that crashed into the left and right side of it like waves, producing loud whistling noises that rang out endlessly.
Behind the flying ship, there was a white trail that stretched for tens of thousands of meters, slowly dissipating.
On the deck of the Gale Intercontinental Flying Ship, Chen Zong leaned against the side of the ship and looked into the distance. His left hand was unconsciously playing with a dark green jade plate. The jade plate was oval in shape, warm and cool to the touch. It was very comfortable to the touch. It was carved out of top-grade jade.
This jade plate was obtained from the Vientiane Tower. He had paid a considerable price to get it.
Chen Zong's purpose in coming to the Blue Waves Continent was naturally to improve the martial arts atmosphere here. It was necessary for him to join a big force. However, he had already missed the apprenticeship ceremony of the Taiyuan Heaven Sect. Because of the disaster at sea, it was delayed for a period of time.
Fortunately, he still had the Vientiane Tower.
But the Vientiane Tower wasn't that simple. He had to pay a high price.
Three thousand substandard spiritual sources!
That's right. Chen Zong paid three thousand substandard spiritual sources. In theory, it was equivalent to three hundred low-grade spiritual sources. In the end, he got a place, a place to be a preparatory disciple of the Taiyuan Heaven Sect's Mingguang Mountain.
Preparatory disciples were the lowest among all the disciples. They could only be regarded as half a disciple of the Taiyuan Heaven Sect. They were usually those with mediocre talent or other reasons. They were close to the recruitment standards of the Taiyuan Heaven Sect but didn't really meet the standards. The Taiyuan Heaven Sect would give them a chance, just like casting a net everywhere.
After all, among the many preparatory disciples, there might be a small number of outstanding ones who would later become official disciples.
In this world, not all warriors would show their talent at once. Some people were late bloomers. Although they were few, they still existed. If there were a few of them, the Tai Yuan Heaven Sect would benefit from it.
After all, preparatory disciples would not enjoy any preferential treatment from the Tai Yuan Heaven Sect. At most, they would stay within the boundaries of the Tai Yuan Heaven Sect.
Three thousand substandard spiritual sources in exchange for a spot as a preparatory disciple was undoubtedly a huge price to pay.
However, as long as he could enter the Tai Yuan Heavenly Sect, it wouldn't be difficult for him to become an official disciple with his own ability and hard work.
To put it bluntly, the 3,000 substandard spiritual sources were just a stepping stone.
With the speed of this intercontinental airship, it would take about a month to cross the Linhai Continent and enter the Taiyuan Continent. The cost was one hundred substandard soul sources, which was quite high. Ordinary martial artists wouldn't be able to afford it. If Chen Zong hadn't killed a lot of enemies and obtained a lot of spoils, as well as four thousand substandard soul sources from the Yang Family and two thousand substandard soul sources from the Martial Saint Palace, he wouldn't have dared to spend so much.
After playing with it for a while, Chen Zong put away the jade token. This was very important. If he lost it, it would be difficult for him to become a preparatory disciple of the Tai Yuan Heaven Sect's Mt. Mingguang.
In the distance, a huge black eagle flew by. It was a Monster Beast.
While flying at high altitudes, it was possible to encounter all kinds of flying Monster Beasts, but this Intercontinental Flying Ship was a Low-Rank Spirit Artifact, so when its protective shield was normally activated, it had the defensive power of a Pseudo Transcendent Realm cultivator, capable of withstanding strong winds. If it encountered a Ninth-Grade flying Monster Beast, it could fully activate its protective shield, raising its defensive power to the level of an Extreme Mortal.
In addition, there were also Extreme Mortal Realm masters and a team of pseudo Transcendents on the Intercontinental Airship to provide security.
In addition to this fixed voyage, there would be masters cleaning up after a period of time to ensure that no powerful or large numbers of flying Monster Beasts would interfere.
However, there were no absolutes.
Time flew. In the blink of an eye, the Gale Airship arrived at the edge of the Linhai Continent.
There was a mountain between the Linhai Continent and the Tai Yuan Continent called the Little Yuan Mountain.
There was the word 'small', but this mountain was not small at all. It was more than a thousand meters tall and stretched for more than a thousand miles. Countless demonic beasts lived here.
For nearly a month, they did not encounter any great danger. Of course, some flying demonic beasts recklessly rushed over, intending to catch a few humans on the deck to have a taste, but they were directly beheaded. Their bones were boiled into soup, and their flesh was also stewed, becoming the food of the passengers on the intercontinental flying ship.
Other than enjoying the scenery on the deck, Chen Zong spent most of his time cultivating.
His cultivation was slowly improving, gradually approaching the late Nine Star level. His application of Minor True Meanings had become more precise, and his low rank pseudo Lingwu had also been further perfected.
However, he still couldn't break through the half-step sword force.
* Roar … *
A terrifying roar like thunder suddenly exploded and turned into invisible sound waves that rolled out from the mountain, as if shattering the clouds.
A violent gust of wind blew and bombarded the Gale Airship, causing it to sway slightly.
The Extreme Mortal Realm master on the Gale Airship turned pale. The roar was too frightening and made him feel a strong sense of threat. This was definitely not a Ninth Level Monster Beast, but a Tenth Level Monster Beast.
A Tenth Level Monster Beast wasn't something he could handle. No one on the Intercontinental Airship could handle it. It would be a disaster. Once it appeared, the Intercontinental Airship would be finished and no one would be able to survive.
Immediately, the Extreme Mortal Realm master let out a sigh of relief because the Monster Beast that roared couldn't fly.
Thousands of meters up in the air, an Earth Spirit Realm Monster Beast that couldn't fly wasn't much of a threat. Not to mention, this kind of Monster Beast usually wouldn't fly high up in the air as it wasn't their domain.
Soon after, the Extreme Human stage expert's heart was raised again, and sweat appeared on his forehead again. This was because he saw a blood-red figure through the window, as if a wave of red clouds was rushing up from the ground into the sky.
With his amazing eyesight at the Transcendent Realm, Yang Kai could clearly see that this red cloud was actually composed of blood-red goshawks.
"A flock of Blood Eagles!"
The pseudo Transcendent Realm guards on the Gale Airship also noticed and quickly took action.
Blood Eagles weren't powerful Monster Beasts. After reaching adulthood, they were generally Eighth Level, equivalent to the late stage of the True Martial Realm. Some of the more powerful Blood Eagles could reach the pseudo Transcendent Realm, while the kings of the flock could break through to the Ninth Level, equivalent to the Extreme Mortal Realm.
The flock of Blood Eagles rushing out from the mountain was like a large red cloud. According to their speed and route, as well as the Gale Airship's speed and route, they would definitely collide.
One or two or even a few dozen wouldn't be a problem, but the problem was that there were at least a thousand Blood Eagles in this flock.
A flock of over a thousand Blood Eagles was an astonishing scale, and there might even be a Blood Eagle King among them.
No one had expected such a change to occur when they were just about to cross the Minor Yuan Mountain and reach the Tai Yuan Continent.
"All passengers, please enter the cabin."
"All passengers, please enter the cabin."
"All passengers, please enter the cabin."
The voice was repeated three times in a row, reaching everyone's ears.
Immediately, most of the passengers hurriedly turned around and rushed into the cabin in a single file, returning to their respective cabins. Then, they looked through the windows of the cabin to see what was happening outside.
"It's just an attack of this level, what's there to be afraid of?" Some people smiled indifferently. It wasn't clear if they had full confidence in the Gale Airship, or if they had a screw loose, or if they had full confidence in their own strength. In short, they were unwilling to enter the cabin and instead stood on the deck, admiring the beautiful scenery. The only thing missing was a paper fan and a glass of wine.
Chen Zong didn't stand out and entered the cabin. The cabin was in a good position, allowing him to see the situation outside.
The flock of Blood Eagles seemed to be frightened. Like headless flies, they slammed into the Gale Airship, making a series of "pfft pfft" sounds.
The Gale Airship's protective shield was fully activated. When the high-speed Blood Eagles hit the shield, their bones were broken, their bodies were smashed, and their flesh and blood flew everywhere.
With such strength, they naturally couldn't break the Gale Airship's protective shield.
Chen Zong noticed that in addition to the Gale Airship's guards, there was a young man standing on the deck. He looked indifferent, but there was a glint in his eyes, as if he wanted to fight.
Chen Zong had noticed this young man many times. His cultivation was very strong, and he guessed that he should be a Grandmaster, but he didn't know what level he was at.
Most importantly, Chen Zong had heard others talk about the symbol on his robe. It was the symbol of a disciple of the Tai Yuan Heaven Sect, and a core disciple at that.
As a core disciple of the Tai Yuan Heaven Sect, he had a very high status. Many people wanted to establish a relationship with him, but he usually ignored them. Perhaps it was his character, or perhaps it was because of his superior status that he didn't want to bother with them.
This was the human world. Some people were dedicated to establishing relationships, while others only believed in strength and their own strength.
Of course, in this world, it was always possible to be at a disadvantage if you fought alone. It was good to make friends with more people, but not everyone. People were divided into different levels. Depending on their status, they would often make friends with people of the same level or even higher.
Chen Zong had never been one to form cliques, and he rarely took the initiative to make friends with others to expand his network. That was not in line with his character. If he had lived in a place where he had to form cliques to survive, Chen Zong would have had a hard time.
Fortunately, in this world, in addition to forming cliques, one could also rely on one's own strength.
As long as you were strong enough, people would take the initiative to expand their network. To put it bluntly, they were trying to curry favor with you.
Therefore, strength was the key. The weak were nothing, like a piece of rotten wood thrown in a corner. No one would pay attention to them, not even a glance.
