Chapter 594: Chapter 601: The Ultimate Mini Flying Boat! (Third Update)
Early the next morning, Yang Zhen stretched and kicked the cat awake with his foot.
The cat tumbled off the bed with a start, cursing openly, “Dammit, who the hell dares to kick me?”
“Get ready, we’re off!” Yang Zhen yawned, freshened up, and stepped out.
“Damn it, you heartless kid, had I just fallen asleep and you woke me up? Hell no, I demand a fifty-fifty split of the gems from building the flying ship this time.”
“Have the nerve to say that?” Yang Zhen glared, “Damn it, had you not been working negligently, how could we have only made 200 ships?”
“Don’t blame me, young man, for crushing your dreams. It is true that practitioners cannot fly at will in True Essence surges, but do you think others will not prepare a ship for this dangerous situation? And how can you be certain that we will encounter a True Essence storm this time?”
Yang Zhen smirked, glancing at the cat and said, “That’s called risk investment, you get that?”
“Alright, alright, you’re right, you’re always right. Damn it, I said fifty-fifty, not a gem less.”
…
Amid the bickering, Yang Zhen and the cat ran into Hua Youyue and Han Yan’er, both of whom looked in good spirits. Just as Yang Zhen was about to speak, there was a knock at the door.
With a mere glance over the fence door, they could clearly see the visitors.
It was Ji Yourong, with GuanGuan and Little Fatty following closely behind.
Ji Yourong knocked, yet it was Little Fatty who pushed open the door. With a beaming smile, he said to Yang Zhen, “Guess you’re not planning to sneak off alone.”
Yang Zhen curled his lips, saying, “I don’t even know what those Ancient Ruins are, how am I to sneak off alone?”
Little Fatty blinked, asking, “Is that an excuse?”
“Doesn’t seem like it!” Yang Zhen glanced over the three of them, didn’t find anyone else, and said, “All set to go?”
Ji Yourong nodded and said, “The fluctuation of Heaven and Earth Qi is getting more intense. Last night, someone saw a massive Qi surge erupting in the far North mountains. It seems a forbiddance has broken, so we had an overnight discussion with both Sacred Lands. We are setting off early and the Sacred Master sent us to fetch you.”
Yang Zhen nodded, saying, “Let’s go.”
Watching Yang Zhen boldly leading the way, a complex expression flickered over Ji Yourong’s face. She glanced at Hua Youyue and Han Yan’er following behind Yang Zhen and said, “Yang Zhen… This trip to the Ancient Ruins carries many dangers, especially for you at the Forbiddance Bridge… Be careful.”
“Absolutely!” Little Fatty also nodded, saying, “Heaven Spring and Heavenly Snow… Anyway, they didn’t break the forbiddance, there’s no need for you to risk your life.”
Yang Zhen laughed heartily, with the cat on his left shoulder and a chicken on his right, disdainfully showing Little Fatty the middle finger. It was unclear how these two rascals picked up that, claw and wing extended, it wasn’t simple to strike such a pose.
…
With the roaring of the Sacred Lands’ flying ships, Heavenly Snow Holy Domain was in full swing. Numerous flying ships converged from all directions, some from the two Sacred Lands, others from the different forces, and still others were small ships of rogue practitioners following after the two massive flying ships. It was a magnificent sight, charging toward the North.
On the flying ship of Heavenly Spring Sacred Land, the Divine Transformation Stage expert and Li Cangxu were not present, they seem to have acted separately.
The Ghost Pill Master was seriously injured by Li Cangxu’s sword and had probably run off somewhere. Obviously, the Forbiddance Bridge that was constructed with pill-making methods needed Yang Zhen to decipher it.
For a moment, all eyes rested on Yang Zhen standing on the Heavenly Snow Holy Domain’s flying ship.
Above the vast sea of clouds, howling wind, the Heaven and Earth Qi in the sky looked as though it had been stirred by some mysterious force and was starting to erupt like a storm surging in the sky, visible to the naked eye.
Yang Zhen couldn’t perceive this energy’s source, but he felt as if something in the world was gradually changing.
Elder Huo of the Heavenly Snow Holy Domain came before Yang Zhen, followed by Mei Chaofen. They exchanged a glance and Elder Huo, smiling, said to Yang Zhen, “The Ancient Ruins are forbidden and fraught with danger, but they are also filled with natural treasures and even Divine Warr’s Sacred weapons. The last time the ruins were opened, three Sacred weapons emerged, all of unmatched power. We will walk till the edge of the Forbiddance Bridge before stopping. The rest is up to you.”
Yang Zhen nodded and was about to speak when, not far off, a terrible Qi surge suddenly exploded with a loud bang. The violent Heaven and Earth Qi erupted, almost forming a terrifying storm, sweeping toward everyone.
“Watch out!”
Mei Chaofen exclaimed, “Everyone be careful, this is the True Essence upheaval of the Ancient Ruins.”
Even before Mei Chaofen gave the warning, Yang Zhen had already vanished, pulling Hua Youyue and Han Yan’er along as he ran.
Faintly, the excited voice of the contemptible cat could be heard, “Holy moly, they’re really here, they’re really here.”
They were here, and they came so suddenly!
Boom!
The terrifying sound was deafening, and the whole flying boat was violently shaking, with countless flying boats falling out of the sky.
No one expected that the prohibition would explode as soon as everyone entered the ancient ruins. Many practitioners, whose flying boats had been smashed, were desperately resisting the True Essence storm, swearing furiously.
Without a flying boat, trying to fly into the ancient ruins out of thin air was like trying to ascend to heaven.
Countless people were desperately struggling, flying towards the boats around them, but there were not many boats to begin with, and nobody dared to get near the ones belonging to the two Sacred Lands, causing everyone to panic.
Yang Zhen, the contemptible cat, and the foppish chicken stealthily appeared on a small flying boat. When they got to the edge, they looked at the struggling practitioners in amazement.
“Oh wow, look, that one has a cool pose, the Human Body Big Wheel Turn, he is flipping over.”
“He flipped!”
“Haha, look at that one in the skirt, her skirt is up so high we can see everything.”
Yang Zhen slapped the contemptible cat on the head, “Damn it, haven’t you heard of ‘don’t look at what you’re not supposed to’? Did the nine years of compulsory education for you just go down the drain?”
“Can I be blamed for that? She just flew in front of me, blocking my line of sight.”
Hearing Yang Zhen’s and the contemptible cat’s conversation, countless practitioners started cursing in unison.
“Damn you, Yang Zhen! You should stay on the Heavenly Snow Holy Domain’s flying boat instead of coming here to revel in our misfortune.”
“Quick, Yang Zhen, open the flying boat’s array, let me in, I…I’ll give you gemstones.”
“Five hundred gemstones, let me hitch a ride for a bit, Yang Zhen. You came here to earn gemstones, right?”
Hearing the surrounding practitioners’ discussion, Yang Zhen and the contemptible cat looked at each other, “See? Some people do understand this Sao Saint.”
Having said that, Yang Zhen shouted to the group of practitioners, “You guessed right, this Sao Saint really did come to earn gemstones, but not in the way you think.”
Even if a small flying boat were opened for people to enter, how many people could it accommodate?
Yang Zhen wouldn’t care about such a small amount of gemstones. Even if it were ten purple gemstones, he wouldn’t let anyone board his flying boat.
After hearing Yang Zhen’s words, all the surrounding practitioners were dumbfounded.
“Bloody hell, if you won’t let us in, how will you earn gemstones? Are you planning to rob us?”
Everyone on the flying boats of the two Sacred Lands stared at Yang Zhen with weird expressions, their mouths twitching uncontrollably.
With wide eyes and open mouth, Mei Chaofen watched the calm and composed Yang Zhen, mumbling to herself, “I knew it. How could Yang Zhen show up in a straightforward manner? That guy is…unbelievable.”
On the Heavenly Spring Sacred Land’s flying boat, Yi Shui’er was also perplexed, looking at Yang Zhen with a face full of disbelief.
How could he make gemstones under circumstances like these?
If gemstones could be made in such situations, wouldn’t it be too easy? Would there still be so many people worried about cultivation resources in the world?
Just then, a scene that made everyone’s eyes widen occurred.
With a casual wave of Yang Zhen’s hand, a flying boat appeared next to the small boat. Yang Zhen’s smug voice boomed out, “Dirty Detachment Gang’s Ultimate Invincible Small Flying Boat, going for ten purple gemstones per boat. The highest bidder gets it, the minimum bid must not be lower than one purple gemstone.”
The contemptible cat, seemingly out of nowhere, pulled out a bronze gong and struck it with a deafening sound.
“Come on, come take a look! Dirty Detachment Gang’s Ultimate Invincible Small Flying Boat. With it, you won’t have to dog paddle through the True Essence storm. Here is your warmest harbor, the starting price is ten purple gemstones. At ten purple gemstones, it will be a steal. Don’t miss out!”
After finishing, the contemptible cat’s eyes rolled around, “Damn, how did the kid guess it right? Not doing business, what a waste!”
