Jiang Chen stayed in Fengyun Divine City for three days when Wan Shitong came to visit him.
"Fellow Taoist Chunyang, there is news. Recently, there is a void treasure ship in Zhenbao Tower to send a group of monks to the southern part of Dizhou to open up wasteland. They said that they can take some monks with them because it is a convenient way and the price is relatively cheap. It only costs ten yuan.
You can take a ride with the Pinyuan Stone."
"However, the minimum requirement is that monks who are above the level of Yin Shen in the Visualization Realm can board the ship. Some low-level monks are too lazy to deal with it. I have to persuade them to agree to open up a spot!"
"I wonder what your Taoist friend Chunyang thinks?"
Wanshitong said with a smile on his face.
"So good!"
"I wonder how long it will take for the Void Treasure Ship from the Zhenbao Tower to arrive at the southern part of Earth Continent?!"
Jiang Chen asked.
"This trip will be attended by powerful men at the level of Dao Lord. It will take less than ten days to reach the endless barren mountains in the southern part of Dizhou!"
Know-it-all replied.
"good!"
"Then I'll take a free ship. I wonder when the Void Treasure Ship of Zhenbao Tower will set off?"
Jiang Chen asked eagerly.
"We will set off in three days. Just let me take you there then!"
Know-it-all said with a smile.
Jiang Chen nodded when he heard this, then took out three middle-grade Yuan stones and handed them to Wan Shitong, and said:
"Then there will be fellow Taoist Lao Wan!"
"Fellow Taoist Chunyang is so polite!"
When Wan Shitong saw the three middle-grade Yuan stones, his eyes lit up and he accepted them with a smile.
Jiang Chen estimated that he personally sent him to the ship, maybe because he wanted to get a kickback.
But these are human nature, and he didn't care too much. What he wants now is to reach the southern part of Dizhou as soon as possible and find Zhou Ying!
Three days passed quickly, and he had spent most of the 100,000 low-grade Yuan Stones he had obtained from the seven Xiaoyao Realm monks outside Qinghua Holy City who wanted to rob him!
He has experienced the life of a rich man. Not to mention, although this holy city is a gold-selling cave, as long as you have money, it can really make you linger!
"Is Fellow Taoist Chunyang here?"
Wan Shitong knocked on Jiang Chen's door and asked.
The three-day period has come and Wan Shitong came to see him on time.
"I am here!"
Hearing this, Jiang Chen opened the door and spoke.
"The Void Treasure Ship of Zhenbao Tower is parked outside the city and will probably set off in about an hour!"
"Fellow Taoist, please follow me!"
Know-it-all spoke up.
Jiang Chen nodded when he heard this, and followed Wan Shitong to the southern side gate of Fengyun City. There was a large, luxurious-looking void treasure ship docked about a person's height above the ground.
Monks wearing black attire stood at various important points of the Void Treasure Ship. All of them had the cultivation level of Xiaoyao Realm.
This can't help but make Jiang Chen a little suspicious. Even if there are so many powerful people in these two continents, they will not reach the level of freedom per capita, right?
The monks of Xiaoyao Realm act as the gatekeepers of the Holy City!
Free and easy monks block the road and rob, they are no different from bandits!
A monk from the Happy Realm wears a "black suit" and works as a bodyguard for others!
This is so fucking outrageous!
"Shopkeeper Chen, this is the Taoist Chunyang I told you about!"
Wan Shitong led Jiang Chen and walked directly towards a greasy middle-aged man wearing a purple robe with a big belly and a bright smile on his face.
"Um!"
"The boarding fee is ten yuan of medium-grade Yuanshi. During this period, you cannot get off the ship halfway. When you get to the place, you can go wherever you like!"
Shopkeeper Chen said with a proud look on his face.
Jiang Chen immediately took out ten middle-grade Yuan stones. A slender and beautiful maid next to Shopkeeper Chen took the Yuan Stone from Jiang Chen's hand, and then followed a tall and tall girl on the other side of Shopkeeper Chen.
The young man with a stern face made an invitation to Jiang Chen and invited him to board the ship!
Wan Shitong, who witnessed Jiang Chen boarding the ship and then disappearing in front of him, raised a cruel smile and said to Shopkeeper Chen with a flattering look on his face:
"I wonder how much a young monk who has reached the pinnacle of Three Flowers in the Happy Realm is worth in your eyes?"
"Your information is true. Grab your things and get out of here. I feel sick when I see a bitch like you!"
Shopkeeper Chen said with disdain.
The maid next to Shopkeeper Chen took out an ordinary animal skin bag that had been prepared long ago and threw it directly to Wan Shitong!
Wanshitong caught the animal skin bag and took a look. There were fifty middle-grade Yuan stones inside. The shining Yuan stones almost blinded him!
"Thank you very much, Shopkeeper Chen, for the meal. If you get such a good job again, be sure to let me know. I am always honest in everything. I will never add water to my penny."
Wan Shitong smiled and nodded to Shopkeeper Chen, bowing and saying.
He looks like a dog wagging its tail begging for mercy!
"Put away your disgusting smile and get out of my sight!"
Shopkeeper Chen said in disgust.
"Okay, okay, if you need anything, please call me!"
Although Wan Shitong was insulted, he was not angry. Instead, he bowed to Shopkeeper Chen with a smile on his face and then turned his head.
When he turned his head, his expression instantly changed, becoming colder and colder. Then he looked back at Shopkeeper Chen, with another flattering smile.
When he looked up at the Void Treasure Ship, he found Jiang Chen standing on the deck, looking in his direction. He quickly glanced at Jiang Chen, showed a smile, then waved to Jiang Chen, and finally turned around quickly.
Head and enter Fengyun Divine City.
Jiang Chen stood on the deck and looked out, and found that many people like Wan Shitong had led one to three or five monks from the Happy Realm or the Visualization Realm onto the Void Treasure Ship.
"Guest, the void treasure ship will be launched soon. Please follow me into the cabin to rest and do not stay on the deck for too long."
A monk from the Happy Realm wearing black attire spoke to Jiang Chen.
"OK."
Jiang Chen glanced at this man and found that he was looking at him expressionlessly.
Jiang Chen followed the monk in black attire into the spacious cabin and found that the cabin was full of monks like him, sitting cross-legged on a futon, meditating and resting.
"Please choose a futon to meditate and rest, and please do not move around here unless necessary."
The Heijing decorator gave Jiang Chen instructions and then turned around and left.
Jiang Chen nodded when he heard this, then randomly picked a futon and sat down in the lotus position, and began to meditate and rest.
He wanted to move the futon but found that the futon was fixed to the cabin and could not be moved at all.
"Why do you feel that the void treasure ship in this treasure building is so weird?"
"These black and powerful decorations look like they have been brainwashed or controlled by secret methods, or they are deadpools trained by Zhenbao Building."
"And the know-it-all that was sent to me must have received a bit too much rebate from Shopkeeper Chen. Look at the bulging animal skin bag. There are at least dozens of yuan stones in it."
"If it's a low-grade Yuan Stone, then it's not much, but why does it look like Wan Shitong's expression doesn't look like a low-grade Yuan Stone?"
"I just gave him three middle-grade Yuan stones, but he didn't even look at them. Why would his eyes sparkle when he saw dozens of low-grade Yuan stones, unless the bag contained middle-grade Yuan stones!
"
"And I just looked at him on the deck. Although his mouth was full of smiles and he waved to me, why do I always feel that this smile is so weird?"
Although Jiang Chen was sitting cross-legged on the futon, he was reviewing many things that had happened recently. The more he reviewed them, the more he felt that something was wrong.
But he couldn't understand some of the links. He didn't know if he was too sensitive or if he thought too much.
Then dozens more people entered the cabin one after another, until the entire cabin was full, and no more people entered the cabin.
"Dear guests, the time has come. The Void Treasure Ship is about to start. During the start-up process, an energy shield will be formed and the formation will be activated. If guests feel any turbulence or slowdown in the operation of mana, it is normal.
Phenomenon, don’t worry!”
"In addition, when the Void Treasure Ship starts, please be sure to sit on the futons and not move around. These futons are connected to the treasure ship's energy shield, which can protect your bodies from collisions."
The beautiful maid next to Shopkeeper Chen came to the cabin and said to Jiang Chen and others with a smile.
After saying that, he bowed slightly, swung his round hips, and left the cabin with small steps.
Not long after the beautiful maid left, Jiang Chen and others felt a shaking, and then felt that the vitality of the world became chaotic, and then disappeared, and the magic power in their bodies seemed to be sealed.
Because the beautiful maid had warned everyone before, no one was too panicked.
Buzz!
At the moment when the Void Treasure Ship was officially launched and the energy shield was condensed and formed, the futon Jiang Chen and others were sitting on directly emitted streaks of golden light, turning into a golden bell of energy and locking everyone in the bell!
Bang bang bang!
When everyone saw this, you looked at me and I looked at you. They didn't know what to say, but they thought in their hearts that this should be the protective measure mentioned by the beautiful maid.
But as time passed bit by bit, everyone discovered that the void treasure ship had stabilized and was moving forward at an unparalleled speed, but the golden bell covering them showed no sign of dissipating.
Bang bang bang!
There was a grumpy old man who clenched his fists and punched the golden bell several times. However, not only was the golden bell not damaged, it instead emitted terrifying golden rays that burned his skin!
"ah!"
The grumpy old man let out a painful cry, his whole body trembling.
"what 's wrong?"
"Why are we locked up?"
"Let us out!"
"I won't take this boat anymore, let us out quickly!"
"Damn intelligence traffickers, they are not intelligence traffickers at all, but human traffickers!"
"Don't let me out, or I will kill this despicable and shameless villain!"
"We were sold and we helped others count their money, hahaha, how ridiculous it is!"
"..."
Everyone slowly came to their senses, and each of them begged for mercy, cursed, furious, or shocked. In short, the expressions on their faces were so wonderful that they cannot be described in words.
"Noisy!"
"Shut up, everyone!"
"Whoever dares to make a noise will be killed without mercy!"
Sounds like yellow bells and bells came out from the golden bell, shocking everyone. The weak visualization monks were so shocked by the sound waves that they bleed from their orifices and fainted directly!
Jiang Chen used the skill of seeing through walls, looked around, and found that there were monks from the Happy Realm in black attire all over the Void Treasure Ship, guarding every part of the Void Treasure Ship.
And in the lower level of the cabin where they are, there are three levels of cabins. Each level of the cabin is filled with densely packed people. Some of these people are as strong as Xiaoyao Realm Five Qi Chaoyuan level, and the weak ones are even Qi Refining Realm monks.
All.
It's just that the faces of these people are branded with the mark of slavery. These are slaves, slaves of Zhenbao Tower, the pioneers that Wan Shitong calls them!
And their fate may be the same as these mine slaves, either becoming slaves or dying!
Jiang Chen stretched out his hand to feel the strength of the golden bell. His spiritual thoughts quickly enveloped the entire golden bell. He found that his spiritual thoughts dissipated the moment they came into contact with the golden bell.
In addition, the magic power in his body is still unable to be mobilized, and even his spiritual thoughts are suppressed. His cultivation strength can be said to be incomparable to one out of ten, or even one out of a hundred.
The other monks should be even worse than him.
But he wasn't that panicked, after all, he still had a trump card.
He is not only a monk, but also a warrior. His natural energy and blood, swallowing true energy, martial arts spirit, and mental strength can all be used normally. With his supreme master's strength, it is no problem to blow open the golden bell cage with one punch.
.
But what's the use of blasting open the golden bell cage?
There is a Taoist strongman sitting on this void treasure ship. Even if he smashes the golden bell cage with one punch and restores the monastic realm to its peak, he will not be able to compete with the Taoist strongman.
So he decided to wait and see what the purpose of this group of people was.
If he is not worried about his life for the time being, then he can wait and see for the time being and use the power of the Void Treasure Ship to rush on and successfully reach the southern part of the Earth Continent.
If the people in Zhenbao Tower were arresting them for a blood sacrifice or something like that, and all of them would die, then he would have to fight hard!
If it doesn't work, he has one last way to save his life, which is to activate the shuttle function between the two worlds, leave the fairy world directly, and return to the real world.
When he thought of this, Jiang Chen's mentality suddenly became much calmer.
But other monks are not having it so easy!
Each and every one of them is imprisoned by the golden bell, unable to exert much of their own strength, and they don't know what their future destiny will be.
Just now, everyone was still in high spirits, but now they are all withered and haggard, and their faces are ashen!
However, Jiang Chen saw a young man in the corner wearing coarse linen clothes and carrying a long black sword on his back. He still looked as usual, meditating and resting, as if everything in the outside world had nothing to do with him.
This person should be a tough guy, and he should be able to get out of trouble, but now, like Jiang Chen, he has not chosen to alert the enemy, but is waiting and watching.
He felt Jiang Chen's eyes sweeping over him, so he couldn't help but open his eyes, gave Jiang Chen a meaningful look, closed his eyes again, meditated and rested!
This person’s Qi-nurturing skills are quite good!
The Void Treasure Ship was galloping crazily under the control of a Taoist master, but everyone in the cabin was becoming more and more panicked. At this moment, the greasy shopkeeper Chen took the tall young man and the beautiful maid away.
Enter the cabin.
"Don't worry too much. You need to know that there is no free lunch in this world. How can a Void Treasure Ship heading to the southern part of Earth Continent require only ten middle-grade Yuan Stones?"
"In fact, you have all been deceived by those intelligence dealers. They specialize in deceiving you, young people who are inexperienced and relatively naive."
"They sold you to my Treasure House at various prices. If you have enough Yuanshi or treasures on your body, you can redeem yourself!"
"It doesn't matter if you don't have enough Yuan Stone to redeem yourself. This time Zhenbaolou bought you not to make you a slave, nor to sacrifice you with blood, but to give you a great blessing!"
"Now there is a very rare secret cave in the south of Dizhou. Only monks below the Taoist realm can enter."
"But the secret cave is very big, and a large number of monks need to enter it to activate it. That's why we have made this trip to the southern part of Earth Continent!"
"It is undeniable that this trip has a certain degree of danger, but if you gain something in the secret cave, it is also your good fortune!"
Shopkeeper Chen said with a smile.
"hehe!"
"In my opinion, those big forces are reluctant to let their disciples go to the secret realm to open up wasteland, and they want us to risk our lives to help them find a way?!"
A monk at the Five Qi Chaoyuan level in Xiaoyao Realm snorted coldly and said disdainfully.
"This fellow Taoist can understand it clearly!"
Shopkeeper Chen glanced at the man with a smile, then raised his hand to condense a golden light and hit the man directly.
Phew!
I saw this golden light break through the air and turn into a huge nail made of gold and pierce into this man's body!
"ah!"
The man immediately yelled in pain.
"As long as you are smart, you can do it!"
"Then why are you still being sold and helping others lose money?"
"I hope you can see the situation clearly. Now you are the fish and meat, and we are the swordsmen!"
"If you dare to use some tricks again, don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless!"
"Next, please take out the storage instruments you carry with you, and let me take a good look at whether you have enough money to redeem you!"
Shopkeeper Chen looked at Jiang Chen and others with a smile and said.
"This is an act of banditry!"
"Isn't your Zhenbao Building known as doing business from all over the world and being absolutely honest?"
"Fortunately, your Zhenbao Building is still in business. Is this how you do business?"
"Your Zhenbaolou is just a black shop!"
"You still claim to be the first floor of Dizhou. Damn it. You are not just squeezing us powerless casual cultivators, but you are also acting as a dog for those big forces. It is simply shameless!"
"If you want money or if you want life, it's up to you to decide!"
"The most terrifying thing when people are alive is that money is gone while people are still alive. I would rather people die and money is not spent!"
"..."
A group of people began to curse again and again. Most of these people were casual cultivators who were not experienced in the world.
Being a casual cultivator means poverty, and poor casual cultivators value money more than their own lives!
Shopkeeper Chen is still looking at everyone with a smile, but his eyes are getting colder and colder, like a poisonous snake that chooses people to eat!
