Chapter 322: Void s.h.i.+p
When Qin Jue and the others saw Fairy Yue, she also noticed them. Then she flew over without hesitation and bowed to Killing Dao. “Senior.”
At this moment, Fairy Yue’s face was pale, and her clothes were in a mess. There were a few red wounds on her body, and she had clearly just experienced a lot of battles.
However, with Fairy Yue’s third realm Great Void Stage cultivation, it was not strange for her to come out alive.
“Yeah.”
Killing Dao nodded slightly in response.
The atmosphere became awkward.
In the end, Xiao Dang broke the silence. “Are you returning to the void s.h.i.+p too?”
This was actually nonsense. The floating continent had already closed, so where else could she go if not to return to the spatial battles.h.i.+p? However, Fairy Yue heaved a sigh of relief and cast a grateful gaze.
“Yes.”
“In that case, let’s go together.”
As an itinerant cultivator, Xiao Dang knew very well that there were no eternal friends, only eternal benefits.
Even though they had almost “fought” because of the Profound Yin Gra.s.s, there was no conflict of interest now, so there was no need for them to act like they had deep enmity.
Moreover, the woman was clearly different from those fellows. Otherwise, her soul would have long been destroyed.
Hearing this, Fairy Yue was overjoyed. “Thank you!”
One had to know that coming out of the floating continent alive was only the first step. After that, they would have to face an ambush from hidden forces at any moment.
Although Fairy Yue was at the third realm of the Great Void Stage, she was still injured. If she was besieged or ambushed, she would most likely die.
This was also why most cultivators would choose to team up. Otherwise, it would be too dangerous.
Now that all her companions had died, Fairy Yue would be safer traveling with Qin Jue and the others.
After all, the floating continent was only a few thousand kilometers wide. The strength that Killing Dao had displayed had already attracted the attention of other experts. As long as one wasn’t an idiot, they wouldn’t come to court death.
Just like that, another woman appeared in the team.
“Um… I still don’t know your name.” On the way to the void s.h.i.+p, Xiao Dang couldn’t help but ask.
“Ying Yue.” The woman answered.
“Ying Yue… Fairy Yue…”
Xiao Dang was stunned for a moment as he muttered to himself. Then, as if recalling something, his eyes suddenly widened. “You’re the third miss of the Ying Clan of Ming Province?!”
“That’s right.” Ying Yue whispered.
“I see.”
Xiao Dang suddenly understood. No wonder this woman could step into the third realm of the Great Void Stage at such a young age. She was the proud descendant of the Ying Clan of Ming Province.
Coupled with the thin man calling himself the Young Master of the Ling Clan, it seemed like those fellows were all descendants of large clans.
…
Ming Province’s Ying Clan? What was that?
Qin Jue was puzzled, but he didn’t say anything. After they arrived on the void s.h.i.+p, he could just search through a high-level cultivator’s memories.
Not long after, the five of them pa.s.sed through hundreds of kilometers and arrived near the void s.h.i.+p.
From afar, one could already see the huge body of the void s.h.i.+p. It was like a primordial beast entrenched in the void, making one feel fearful.
At the same time, more experts approached from all directions. However, the total number of people had been reduced by more than fifty percent as compared to before. Even if some of them survived, they were still missing limbs and looked incomparably miserable.
It was natural of a lot of people to die in such void adventures.
Suddenly, a light lit up at the end of Qin Jue’s field of vision!
Swoos.h.!.+
The beam of light streaked through the void like a long rainbow. Wherever it pa.s.sed, it swept up gusts of wind before entering the void s.h.i.+p and disappearing.
“Did something pa.s.s by just now? So fast.”
“Shh, lower your voice. That’s Lord Lou Luo!”
“Lou Luo? That expert at the fifth realm of the Great Void Stage?”
Everyone gasped and shut their mouths.
One had to know that among the experts riding the void s.h.i.+p this time, only three were at the fifth realm of the Great Void Stage. Each of them was extremely powerful, so how could these itinerant cultivators who were around the second or third realm of the Great Void Stage dare to provoke them?
“…”
“…”
“Let’s go.”
Patting the jade tablet on his body, Xiao Dang pa.s.sed through the barrier and landed on the void s.h.i.+p first. Ying Yue followed closely behind.
On the other side, Qin Jue and the other two were stopped by two fully armed Great Void Stage experts.
“Stop. Who are you? Where’s your ident.i.ty jade tablet?” One of the Great Void Stage experts said solemnly.
Anyone who boarded a void s.h.i.+p would have an ident.i.ty jade tablet that allowed them to pa.s.s through barriers at will and enter freely, but Qin Jue and the others didn’t have the jade tablet.
“Ah, I almost forgot.”
Xiao Dang slapped his head and hurriedly stepped forward. “Wardens, they are my friends. Because of an urgent matter, they also want to board this void s.h.i.+p.”
As he spoke, Xiao Dang took out more than ten spirit stones and said, “This is for you. I hope you can make an exception.”
“I see. I understand.”
The leading Great Void Stage expert accepted the spirit stones, took out three ident.i.ty jade tablets, and handed them to Xiao Dang before turning to leave.
Seeing this, Ying Yue’s pupils constricted. It turned out that Qin Jue and the others were not the pa.s.sengers on this void s.h.i.+p. No wonder she had never seen them before.
Qin Jue originally wanted to pay the spirit stone to Xiao Dang, but Xiao Dang refused. “No need. Just think of it as my gift to you guys.”
Qin Jue was helpless and could only give up.
After entering the void s.h.i.+p, Qin Jue realized that the s.p.a.ce inside was even wider than he imagined. Not only were there mountains and rivers, but there were also all kinds of flowers and trees, making him feel very comfortable.
For such a void s.h.i.+p, there were usually large merchant a.s.sociations and top experts holding down the fort. Therefore, it was clearly stipulated that no matter who it was, as long as they stepped onto the void s.h.i.+p, they were absolutely not allowed to fight.
Those who disobeyed would be killed without mercy.
In other words, no matter how severely injured the people who returned from outside were, they would be absolutely safe after pa.s.sing through the barrier.
Of course, there were also some unlucky people who were killed when they were only a few thousand meters or even dozens of meters away from the s.h.i.+p barrier.
Facing this situation, the surrounding people acted as if they did not see it. They were calm and collected, or perhaps they were already used to it.
Under Xiao Dang’s lead, Qin Jue and the other two quickly found a room that corresponded to their ident.i.ty jade tablets. Their rooms happened to be close together and saved a lot of trouble.
In addition, the place where Xiao Dang lived was also very close to them, only a few hundred meters away.
As for Ying Yue, because of her special ident.i.ty, she lived on the highest floor of the s.h.i.+p, so they could only be separated.
“By the way, where is this void s.h.i.+p headed?”
It was only at this moment that Qin Jue thought of this question.
“Uh, the Nine Provinces Continent.”
Xiao Dang answered casually and did not think too much about it.
“Nine Provinces Continent…”
Qin Jue pondered and immediately returned to his room, spreading out his spirit sense.
Several breaths later, Qin Jue smiled and finally found a suitable target. It was Lou Luo, who had caused a commotion outside the void s.h.i.+p just now.
It couldn’t be helped. He was the only expert at the fifth realm of the Great Void Stage who had returned so far.
However, Qin Jue didn’t use the soul searching technique. Instead, he used his spirit sense to enter Lou Luo’s mind and silently read through all the memories regarding this world. He also learned about the so-called Nine Provinces Continent and the Ying Clan of Ming Province.
Unfortunately, although Lou Luo was at the fifth realm of the Great Void Stage, he knew very little about the specific situation of this world, making Qin Jue somewhat disappointed.
