Chapter 295: Cangwu Spirit Ship (two in one chapter)
"Alright, the one hundred and fifty disciples whose names are mentioned below will follow us to the Kingdom of Yan."
"Disciples whose names are not read will stay where they are and wait."
"The elders will arrange your mission later. After a while, you will go together with the monks from Qingzhou's small forces. It's just a matter of time."
Master Changfeng told us the general arrangements. As for the more specific arrangements, they may be made on the way or after arriving at the destination.
"Disciple, obey!"
In the dojo, all the cultivators said in unison.
Seeing this, Master Changfeng began to speak out the names of the monks one by one. He spoke at a slow and slow pace without repetition, and read one hundred and fifty names in a row.
Liu Yu, Jiang Qiushui, Yan Kai, and Cui Liang were all among them. I don't know whether it was luck or misfortune.
As the names were read out one by one, the two hundred foundation-building monks were divided into two distinct groups, with one group having 150 people and the other group having 50 people.
It is worth mentioning that Zhao Wuji, Zhou Zhuofeng, Bai Yuxuan, Qin Qing and other monks from the Three Heroes and Four Elites were also assigned to the 150 monks who went first.
It seems that the sect has taken this matter seriously as never before. Master Changfeng will personally intervene and any relationship will not work.
Liu Yu thought secretly.
"It's almost time, I'll leave soon."
The ten Jindan elders above nodded to each other, and finally Master Changfeng took out a magic weapon that looked like a silver spaceship.
"Cangwu Ship!"
Cui Liang whispered.
Liu Yu, Jiang Qiushui, and Yan Kai walked over upon hearing the news.
"Senior Brother Cui, does he know the name of this magic weapon? You might as well tell him."
Yan Kai asked.
Liu Yu's expression changed. He had also heard of the name of this treasure, but this was the first time he had actually seen it.
This magic weapon looked like a flying escape type at first glance. I didn't know what magical effect it had, so I also looked at the former.
Cui Liang has been building the foundation for the longest time, so of course he has a better understanding of the sect's situation.
"This spiritual ship is called Cangwu Ship. It was refined by the sect in order to deal with special situations. It can travel as far as 40,000 miles a day."
"You travel to Beihai in the morning and rest in Cangwu in the evening. With such a fast speed, the name Cangwu comes from this."
"What's even more rare is that this spiritual ship can not only carry hundreds of monks, but its own defense is no less than a defensive magic weapon."
"With hundreds of people riding in it, the safety is greatly improved. If there is an attack midway, the boat will not be destroyed and everyone will be killed."
"With the Cangwu ship here, if something goes wrong in Qingzhou, the monks of the sect can arrive and pacify it in half a day. This greatly stabilizes the situation in Qingzhou and prevents some monks with ulterior motives from lurking in the dark and not daring to come forward."
Cui Liang was inexplicably excited when he talked about this, and at the end he was a little proud. He seemed to be very disdainful of the immortal cultivating forces that were lurking in secret to undermine the stability of Qingzhou and oppose the rule of Yuanyang Sect.
"In this way, the Cangwu ship can indeed be called a strategic item, and its importance is much more than that of ordinary magic weapons."
Yan Kai exclaimed.
While several people were communicating in low voices, Changfeng Zhenren threw the Cangwu Ship into the air.
This magic weapon-level spiritual ship swelled in the wind and became a behemoth in just half a breath, but compared to Gui Yuanzhou, it seemed "petite".
It is about ten feet long, about three feet wide and high, and its streamlined design can effectively reduce the resistance in the air, thus increasing the speed and reducing the consumption of mana and spiritual energy.
The surface is glowing with a faint silver aura, and the hull is engraved with heavenly phoenix, Kunpeng and other true spirits that represent speed. The overall appearance is exquisite and extraordinary, and you can tell it is extraordinary at a glance.
The ten elders were the first to land on the deck of the spirit ship. One of them, whose name Liu Yu knew, the real man named Ma, said in a deep voice:
"What are the disciples waiting for?"
"Why don't you quickly board the spirit ship!"
The group of foundation-building monks below seemed to wake up after hearing this. They took out their magical weapons one after another and flew towards the Cangwu ship.
Liu Yu and the four others boarded the spiritual ship one after another with their magic weapons and landed on the deck.
Coincidentally, Qin Qing, the red lotus fairy with light red pupils and a gentle temperament, happened to fall next to the four of them.
This woman's peerless appearance, profound cultivation, and unique temperament naturally attracted everyone's attention. Immediately, several fellow Foundation Architects leaned over, as if they wanted to get acquainted with her.
Young guys like Yan Kai looked sideways frequently, and even Cui Liang, a veteran of flowers, rolled his eyes and looked at her secretly, with an inexplicable look in his eyes.
Liu Yu glanced at it and then looked away. At this moment, he felt a hand grabbing his sleeve. He turned around and saw that it was Jiang Qiushui.
She bit her lip, obviously a little bit disgusted.
Although Jiang Qiushui was not inferior to Qin Qing in appearance and figure, his temperament was slightly inferior. The latter's feminine demeanor was obviously more fascinating to male cultivators.
The most important level of strength is so different between the two that there is no comparison at all.
Liu Yu smiled, patted the woman's cold, greasy palms to comfort her, and looked at the elders.
Jiang Qiushui's lips revealed a smile, and he leaned closer.
Just after one hundred and fifty foundation-building monks landed on the Cangwu ship, two more golden elixir-level spiritual pressures appeared and flew down from the mountainside of Tongtian Peak.
Master Changfeng's lips moved, as if he was communicating something with the two elders who came after him. After a few breaths, he nodded slightly and turned around.
He fired several spells in his hand and activated the magic weapon Cangwu Ship.
The Cangwu ship was activated, and a silver shield instantly appeared around it, wrapping the ship inside, and then shot out like an arrow from a string.
From a distance, it looks like a silver meteor, falling towards the south.
The Cangwu ship flew along the path, leaving a faint silver light, which did not slowly dissipate until a while later.
What is the concept of traveling forty thousand miles a day?
This means that it can fly more than 3,300 miles every hour, and its speed is more than ten times that of ordinary foundation-building monks, and even surpasses ordinary late-stage Jindan monks.
Liu Yu suddenly looked down and saw that the familiar scenery was rapidly retreating. Even with the eyesight of the foundation-building monk, it was difficult to see the rapidly retreating scenery.
From the Zhenyang Dojo to the edge of the mountain gate, the distance of more than a thousand miles was covered in just over two quarters of an hour. If a monk in the early stage of foundation building came here, it would have taken at least three hours.
The entire mountain gate area has been shrouded in the colorful black dome array, and the Cangwu ship stopped in front of the colorful light curtain.
It can be seen that martial law is currently in place within the mountain gate, and there are disciples holding hands on all important roads.
There are also foundation-building deacons guarding each formation node to prevent monks from forcing their way through.
However, the Cangwu Ship is one of the iconic magic weapons of the Yuanyang Sect, and it has the function of identifying oneself to some extent. The person who controls this magic weapon must be a senior member of the sect, so there are no monks who want to verify their identity.
Not long after, the colorful light curtain opened a circular passage with a size of several tens of feet. After the Cangwu ship passed through, the circular passage slowly healed, and it didn't take long for it to return to its original state.
After leaving the mountain gate, Master Changfeng fired several more spells. The speed of the Cangwu ship increased to the limit, and it quickly flew towards the southern sky.
It became a small dot in the blink of an eye and finally disappeared.
"The Yuanyang Sect's Cangwu Ship!"
Even in the daytime, the escaping light of the spirit ship is very conspicuous, and the monks below can see it when they raise their heads.
Of course, this aura and power can be restrained, but Master Changfeng didn't seem to have this intention. He seemed to intend to show it so obviously, like he was on a patrol.
Liu Yu secretly guessed that the elders must have done this intentionally to deter potential bad actors and maintain stability in Qingzhou.
After all, the power of the sect is about to move south in a large scale, which will inevitably lead to the emptiness of garrison forces in various places.
Although there won't be any major problems if the rear is in chaos, it will strain some of the sect's energy.
"The journey from Zongmen to Yan Kingdom is about 30,000 miles, and it will take about half a day. At that time, we will stop briefly in Jin Kingdom, which is close to Yan Kingdom, and join the monks from Qi Kingdom who are coming."
"But before that, we need to stop at the border of Chu State for a while, meet up with the monks from the four sects of Cangyue Valley, Piaoxue Pavilion, Qingxu Sect, and Hehuan Sect, and then set off together."
"During this period, you fellow apprentices can go to the spirit ship and take a short rest."
Master Changfeng arranged.
"Yes, disciple, I obey."
Regardless of whether he needs to rest or not, the foundation-building monks should do it.
Later, some monks entered the spiritual ship to rest, while some monks were still standing on the deck, watching the scenery along the way, unable to calm down for a long time.
Qingzhou is the northernmost continent of Chu State, more than 10,000 miles away from the northern border of Chu State.
Even if the journey is smooth, with the Cangwu ship's escape speed, it will still take three hours.
Liu Yu was not interested in staying on the deck for three hours. Today's practice has not been completed yet. If he has this time, he might as well meditate and practice Qi.
You can't reach a thousand miles without taking small steps.
"Senior Brother Cui, Junior Sister Jiang, Junior Brother Yan, and Liu are going to take a short rest in the spirit ship. Didn't you know?"
Liu Yu said calmly.
"I plan to stay on the deck and take in the scenery along the way, as well as the great mountains and rivers of Chu State."
"After all, I have never left Qingzhou before. I will definitely experience it this time when I have the opportunity."
Yan Kai crossed his arms and said seriously.
"That's why Cui rarely leaves Qingzhou, and he also wants to take a good look at the great mountains and rivers of Chu State."
"Just stay on the deck with Junior Brother Yan."
Cui Liang chuckled and glanced at the Red Lotus Fairy who smiled and looked at the scenery along the way, indicating something.
"Qiu Shui is a little tired. It's better to rest in the spirit ship."
Jiang Qiushui thought for a while and decided to go to the spirit ship to rest for a while and get familiar with the newly acquired magic weapon.
"In that case, Liu will go to rest first and come out again in three hours."
"If anything happens, please ask Junior Brother Yan and Senior Brother Cui to notify you in time."
Liu Yu smiled in her heart, looked at Cui Liang with a smile that even a male cultivator would understand, and then entered the spirit ship with Jiang Qiushui.
"Even if you embark on the path to immortality, how many monks can truly see through the word color?"
"But there are probably some common topics between these two people."
"After all, Yan Kai restrained himself in order to build the foundation before. Now that the foundation has been successfully established, it's time to relax."
Liu Yu thought secretly.
As soon as he turned aside Jiang Qiushui beside him, he didn't think that he had seen through the word "color".
The Cangwu ship is divided into upper and lower floors. The upper floor has more rooms and is spacious and comfortable, while the lower floor is relatively narrow and extremely simple.
Although it is not stated explicitly, many foundation-building monks assume that the upper floor is where the elders live and rest. No monk dares to ignore the superiority and inferiority of the superiors and subordinates, so they all find rooms on the lower floor to rest.
Ignoring Jiang Qiushui's expectant eyes, the two finally walked to the lower floor and found two adjacent rooms. They wrote their names on the doors and went in respectively.
Time is a little tight, and the physique of immortal cultivators is beyond that of ordinary people. If you want to enjoy the clouds and rain in Witch Mountain, a few hours are indispensable.
Where would there be time to practice like this?
Although he hadn't been close to each other for a long time and he was a little itchy, he still knew clearly in his heart which was more serious.
The inner room of the Cangwu ship is even narrower than that of the Guiyuanzhou, but its protection is much better.
Liu Yu carefully checked the restrictions and found no problems, so he nodded with satisfaction.
Then he took out a futon and put it on the bed, sat cross-legged on it, took out the elixir, swallowed it, and refined it using the exercises.
At present, the intensity of the Qingyang Demonic Fire has reached the level where the fifth Demonic Fire Refining can be carried out. It can be carried out immediately after the accumulation of mana is completed.
However, the fourth Demonic Fire Refining has just been completed, and the mana still needs some years to accumulate, so it cannot be completed in a short time.
Most of the late-stage part of the sixth level of Qingyang Gong has been understood. I believe that at the current speed, it will be fully understood within ten years.
Time passes very quickly during cultivation, and three hours are like an instant.
Three hours later, Liu Yu opened his eyes again. After thinking for a while, he gave up the idea of ​​continuing to practice the magical method of preserving spirits.
At this time, he should have almost arrived at the border of Chu State and was about to join the monks from the other four major sects. He wanted to take this opportunity to get to know the monks from other sects and take a look at Qianxue City.
To sharpen your sword and chop wood, cultivation is the most important thing, but it does not happen overnight. Knowing more about the monks from other sects in Chu State will obviously be more beneficial to your trip to Yan State.
"Dong dong"
Liu Yu was about to get up when he suddenly heard several knocks on the door. He thought it was Cui Liang or Yan Kai coming over to inform him.
So I put away the futon and opened the door and took a look. I didn't expect it was Jiang Qiushui.
She had become familiar with the magic weapon early, and thinking that Liu Yu would be on the deck in three hours, she planned to go with him, so she picked the right time and knocked on the door.
This woman was obviously well-groomed, with curved eyebrows, light eye shadow, delicate makeup, and neatly combed hair at the back of her head, with a silver hairpin stuck in it.
"Let's go."
Even though he was already very familiar with her, Liu Yu was stunned for a moment, then shook her head slightly and led the woman back onto the deck.
Jiang Qiushui caught that look and immediately became happy and followed him with brisk steps.
The Chu State is thousands of miles apart from the north to the south, and its area is comparable to that of Liu Yu's previous country. The climate and environment are very different.
In Qingzhou, there was still a gentle breeze and a scorching sun. But in Cangzhou, the southernmost city, it was already covered with snow.
Snowflakes are falling from the sky, and biting cold winds are blowing constantly. The earth is covered with snow, and everything you see is snow-white.
Both the mountains, rivers and vegetation are covered with a thick layer of white snow.
It's like entering a snow country. The misty white color can easily blur the direction and distance, making people get lost in the snow.
The temperature changes from hot to cold. If an ordinary mortal suddenly comes from Qingzhou to Cangzhou, it is not impossible that he will become seriously ill or even lose his life due to the inability to adapt to the environment.
But all this is nothing to a cultivator.
Ordinary changes in the external environment and temperature differences of dozens of degrees are completely bearable for the immortal cultivator's constitution, and he does not even need to wear more clothes.
