Whoosh, whoosh. Sails swayed on top of the towering rails. There were no spiritual cannons on them, only giant tiger-headed crossbows that were spread out on the deck. There were three black tiger-patterned crossbows mounted on each of the giant crossbows. Two Divine Transformation cultivators in tiger-patterned spiritual armor stood beside the giant crossbows.
A total of fifteen gigantic ships were suspended in the air above the square that was paved with Azure Spirit Bricks. Each ship was half the size of the Feihong class warship that Lu Xiaotian had ridden before.
Lu Xiaotian was sitting cross-legged on the deck. Beside him was a woman in a black robe. Her face was also covered by a black veil, only revealing a pair of bright and beautiful eyes. She sat alone in a corner among the four. There was also a beautiful woman in a red dress with a high bun. Her expression was cold, and her body emitted the spiritual fragrance of elixirs. This kind of body fragrance was mostly emitted by regular pill refiners.
Lu Xiaotian was also a pill refiner, but as a body cultivator, he had extremely meticulous control over his body. With some time, he could expel the smell of elixirs from his body. There were also some pill refiners with moderate cultivation who could do this, but they couldn't do it as thoroughly as Lu Xiaotian. Of course, there were also some pill refiners who were proud of their elixir fragrance. They used it to distinguish the difference between their status and that of ordinary cultivators.
Apart from these two women, there was a man with short hair and wearing a purple and black costume who was slightly closer to Lu Xiaotian. He was quite handsome, and his eyes darted around the crowd.
Before boarding the ship, Yu Zimo had already introduced them. The woman in the black veil was called Cui Liu, and the tall and beautiful woman in the red dress was a second-grade pill king in the south of Yuan Ling City, Guo Jingyu. The short-haired man with a lively gaze, Zhou Yu.
Before leaving, Yu Zimo let them get to know each other. However, the two women seemed to be unfilial, and Lu Xiaotian had no intention of chatting with them. On the other hand, the short-haired Zhou Yu seemed to be very depressed.
"Hey, you guys. Since we're teammates this time, we naturally have to work together sincerely. If we're on guard against each other like this, I'm afraid that we'll mess up the important matters later."
"When facing an enemy, I naturally won't be lenient, as long as you don't drag me down." The black-veiled woman, Cui Liu, coldly replied.
"As a Tier 2 Pill King, could it be that you expect me to fight against the enemy?" Guo Jingyu raised her chin slightly. As a public Tier 2 Pill King, even Divine Illusionary Stage experts had to treat her with respect. Among them, Guo Jingyu had a natural sense of superiority. "Besides, you can be considered a somewhat famous person. Why do you need to ask?"
"Brother Lu, I've actually heard a little about the two of them. You, on the other hand, are a complete stranger to me. Why don't you introduce yourself?" Zhou Yu was snubbed by the two girls, so he shifted his attention back to Lu Xiaotian. After all, this expedition was quite dangerous. If the strength of their teammates was weak, they would also have to consider whether to join another team. No one would joke around with their lives.
"You guys are also very unfamiliar to me. You're just ordinary cultivators. What's there to introduce?" Lu Xiaotian said self-deprecatingly.
"I'm afraid that might not be the case. Nameless Pill Store's new Pill King, I don't know what Zimo is thinking. She actually stuffed two Pill Kings into a team. "
Guo Jingyu snorted. The new Pill King in Yuan Spirit City had attracted the attention of many pill shops. Although Lu Xiaotian had always lived in seclusion, he had still shown his face before, so he was no stranger to the upper echelons of the major pill shops. Guo Jingyu naturally recognized him. It was just that the outside world only knew that Lu Xiaotian's Pill Refining speed was extremely fast, but whether he had reached the Tier 2 level or not, it was unknown.
"What? Two Pill Kings? "Zhou Yu and the black-veiled woman had worried expressions on their faces. It was extremely rare for an ordinary team to invite a single Pill King, so they didn't expect Yu Zimo to have such ability. It was really beyond their expectations, but as an Alchemist, it was inevitable that he lacked the means to fight. The few of them couldn't sense Lu Xiaotian's depth, so they were naturally worried that the team's combat strength would weaken. After all, even if they managed to refine the Yaokun Blood Pill, they still needed to be alive to take it back.
"Zimo, although I owe you a favor, if the team's strength is too weak, I don't want to take the risk. Zhou Yu and Guo Jingyu's strength is not bad, but compared to the others, they can't be considered the top. Their strength is not outstanding to begin with, and you stuffed in another Alchemist, what is the meaning of this? "Guo Jingyu glanced at Yu Zimo, who was walking towards them.
"We only have one life. Does Jingyu think that I would joke around with my life? I can't say much about other things, but I can tell you that when it comes to fighting, Brother Lu's strength is not inferior to Fellow Daoists Zhou and Fellow Daoists Cui. "Yu Zimo smiled calmly.
"Oh, he's that powerful?" Cui Liu and Zhou Yu were both shocked. Even Guo Jingyu was looking at Lu Xiaotian with surprise.
"This is great. Two Pill Kings suddenly appeared in our team, and it won't affect our combat strength. This trip will definitely be the most rewarding." Zhou Yu rubbed his hands in excitement. The black-veiled woman, Cui Liu's bright eyes were also filled with excitement.
Guo Jingyu nodded, believing Yu Zimo's words. Yu Zimo was right, everyone only had one life. Even if Yu Zimo was blinded by greed, he definitely wouldn't joke around with his life.
"That's right, when the Demon Kuns appeared in the past, the city guards never sent out such a large force. Why are they sending out fifteen Tiger Warships this time? Don't tell me they're all here to escort us? "Zhou Chan asked.
"Of course not. Although there are quite a few disciples from large Sect or Noble Family among us, it's not worth the city to send out such a large force. Last time, the puppet Jinzhu I was escorting almost fell into the hands of bandits. Later on, an Ice Eagle Soul Lamp was stolen for no reason. This time, the fifteen warships from Yuan Ling City will pass through Yansha Ridge and wipe out the bandits there. Then, they'll head to the prefecture to intimidate a few Yao tribes. Once we reach the prefecture, we'll have to think of a way to find the Demon Kuns ourselves. "
Yu Zimo gave a general explanation of the route they were going to take.
"Ice Eagle Soul Lamp?" Lu Xiaotian's eyes narrowed when he heard this. There were different grades of Dharma treasures. The Dharma treasures of ordinary Soul Formation and Divine Illusionary Realm experts differed, but the difference wasn't so great that it was like heaven and earth. Although Body Integration Mighty Figures also had Dharma treasures, their Dharma treasures had already transcended a level due to their exceptional abilities. They were Yellow Grade Dharma treasures, and above them were Black Grade Dharma treasures.
The Ice Eagle Soul Lamp was a treasure between Yellow and Black Grade. As long as there was enough lamp oil, it could even unleash the great power of a Black Grade Dharma treasure.
The change in the East Continent's bounty list was due to this Ice Eagle Soul Lamp. The Bodhi Star Lamp was ranked fourth on the East Continent's bounty list.
