The Great Wild God - Chapter 331
Chapter 331 Warship Chi Hai
The next day, three ships carrying hundreds of seafarers set sail from Plum Ridge.
Chen Xun arranged for them to be on the third ship.
They were all seafarers from all over Yangquan Prefecture. Most of them were not the first seafarers to set sail on the Guihai Pavilion. They were very familiar with each other.
Regardless of whether it was the merchants themselves, or the servants, porters, or guards accompanying them, most of them were only at the True Yang Realm. There were only nine Reincarnation Realm cultivators on the ship, including three law enforcement elders from Sea Pavilion.
The space on the ship was narrow and the bottom cabins were occupied by cargo. There weren’t many cabins left, and the ship was filled with servants, porters, guards, and even the wealthy merchants in Yangquan City could only gather together to squeeze in the cabins.
Sea Pavilion treated Chen Xun with extreme courtesy and arranged a separate cabin for him, just like the treatment of the nine Reincarnation Realm cultivators.
Although the cabin was extremely small, only three steps square, it was decorated with sandalwood. It was quite gorgeous, with all the tables and chairs in the bed. The cabin windows were sealed with transparent glass, and one could see the azure sea and sky from within the cabin.
Chen Xun used a few profound talismans to set up a small restriction, and he was at ease in this small cabin.
A three-step square cabin was enough for Chen Xun to set up a four-pillar Mountain and River Formation to prevent others from accidentally intruding. However, at this moment, he was disguised as a True Yang Rogue Cultivator. Everything must suit his current status.
The restrictions laid down by several profound talismans were mainly to prevent others from disturbing and peeping at them.
If a Reincarnation Realm cultivator really wanted to forcefully break through, such a restriction might not even be able to block the opponent for three to five breaths of time, but such a long period of time was enough for Chen Xun to conceal everything completely.
The Reincarnation Realm cultivators on the same level used restrictions to seal their cabins and hide in seclusion to cultivate. If nothing happened, they would rarely come out and walk around.
The sea was long, and if everything went smoothly, it would be two months before they arrived at the first stop, Fire Island.
After making all the preparations, Chen Xun drilled into the Void Origin Pearl and left only a strand of spiritual will in the cabin in case he didn’t get hurt.
At this moment, the Void Primordial Spirit Land and the water area formed by the black turtle swallowing the mirage had already reached a radius of one hundred and fifty to sixty zhang.
After the spiritual land collapsed once, it was now once again filled with flowers, plants, and trees. A lake the size of a hundred acres was also covered with water creatures such as lotuses and magic herbs.
Before Chen Xun left Mountain Parasol, he had sealed the corpses of more than a hundred thousand magical creatures into the Void Origin Pearl. Now, he could control the refinement of more than a thousand magical creatures’ flesh and blood into Void Origin Spiritual Qi every day.
However, the cultivation of spiritual herbs and wood in the Void Origin Spirit Land, as well as the cultivation consumption of Old Kui, Snake Wuxin, and Crimson Sea, were extremely huge, making it difficult for the Void Origin Spirit Land to continue to expand.
After these tens of thousands of corpses were refined, unless Chen Xun could find a new way to supply spiritual energy, otherwise, the spiritual herbs and wood would stop growing-let alone Old Kui, Snake Wuxin, and the others would no longer be able to cultivate in the Void Origin Pearl.
At the center of the spiritual land, next to the Azure Tree Tree, there was a bottle of Nine Nether Iron smelting furnace.
This furnace was modeled after the Nine Beasts Yang Refining Furnace. It was only six feet in diameter and stood on the ground with the tail of the Nine Beasts. Only one person was tall and short, but it took a total of 300,000 jin of Nine Nether Iron to forge this furnace.
Chen Xun used his magic power to create a Rakshasa Devil’s Claw out of thin air and uncovered the lid of the beast’s head that weighed tens of thousands of kilograms. Immediately, a streak of azure flames soared into the sky from the furnace. He was so frightened that he leaned over to watch the lively Chi Hai and flapped his wings before fleeing into the distance.
This was the purest Green Lotus Flame Chen Xun had collected from the Thousand Devil Sand Sea.
Although the Scarlet Sea Demon’s body was incomparably powerful, if it was contaminated with a bit of the Blue Lotus Flame, the dark golden bone wings would be ablated in the blink of an eye, leaving a wound that was difficult to heal.
The Azure Tree was indeed a rare tree in the world. Although it was close, it did not fear the burning of the Azure Lotus Flame.
The Azure Lotus Flame was like an eternal Heavenly Flame that was raging in the Nine Beasts Refining Furnace. Chen Xun’s enormous hand formed from his magic power tossed the mountainous bones of magical creatures into the furnace and burned them with the Azure Lotus Flame.
The Void Origin Pearl could dispel the flesh and blood of magical creatures, but leaving behind a huge amount of bones was also extremely shocking. Chen Xun had to do the same homework every day, which was to throw the magical creature’s bones into the furnace and mix them with the scarlet copper ore for incineration.
This is the ancient refining method contained in the Profound Evolution Art. The copper material that is fused with the essence of the demon skeleton is more than ten times stronger than the scarlet essence copper when used to forge a war chariot …
The more powerful a magical artifact was, the more demanding it was on materials. Only then could it gather the energy that could destroy the heavens and the earth within an inch.
Some powerful chariots, even if they were not core restrictions, could not be used carelessly in the slightest.
At the Battle of the Thousand Devil Sand Sea, The Profound Thunder Chariot refined by the Kui Long Pavilion, The four wall compartment panels and wheels were made of pure copper plus spirit wood. However, when faced with the surging tide of magical creatures, the Black Torpedo Formation was unable to provide all of its defenses. The chariot made of pure copper was unable to provide a stronger defense, resulting in the destruction of nearly 30 Black Torpedo Chariots before they entered the Demon Array.
Apart from the core restriction, casting a war chariot would cost more than 100,000 jin of pure copper. With such a huge consumption, it would be difficult to replace it with other high-grade precious materials.
Now that the essence of the magical skeleton has seeped into the Scarlet Essence Copper, the chariot can withstand the attacks of peak Heaven Origin Realm experts without resorting to defensive formations. Its weight will not even increase by the slightest …
The voyage was long, so Chen Xun wanted to use this time to build a warship for himself so that he could easily walk in the Falling Star Sea in the future.
During his two months in Sea Pavilion, Chen Xun had thoroughly thought through the details of this warship.
Now that he had boarded the ship, most of them were locked up in seclusion in their cabins to cultivate. The Spiritual Qi within the Void Origin Pearl was limited, so Chen Xun began to build the warship.
Old Kui assisted Chen Xun in channeling the copper liquid out of the furnace and casting it into shaped boats in mid-air …
Two months passed quickly. Once the boards were assembled, Chen Xun used the Blue Lotus Flame to smelt the cracks and completely form a whole. A prototype warship that was eighty feet long stopped at the shore of the Void Origin Lake.
The warship was only in its infancy.
The ship from the Guihai Pavilion stopped at the first stop only two days away from Fire Island. After replenishing fresh water and food, it continued to sail far away …
Although it was hundreds of kilometers away from Fire Island, it was difficult for an isolated island to exist alone in the sea of the demons. Therefore, no one gathered to live there. It was only a place for ships and cultivators to fly to and fro and fall into the starry sea.
After leaving Li Huo Island, Chen Xun continued to hide in the Void Origin Pearl all day long. He continued to perfect the warship and refine some array restrictions into the warship.
The entire warship didn’t look big, but the hull alone weighed more than three to four million kilograms. If thrown into the lake, it could float up and sink in the slightest storm.
Chen Xun inserted four floating restrictions into the bottom of the ship, and it was almost equivalent to two million jin of buoyancy.
Although the floating restriction that Cloud Continent had refined was the strongest that could allow a hundred zhang ship to fly through the air, Chen Xun didn’t have that much time to deduce a new Spirit Gathering restriction.
These four Spirit Gathering Formations were refined by Chang Zhen before he died. Originally, he wanted to refine four chariots that could fly through the air.
As the situation at the entrance of the Devil Ruins worsened, even if a small number of flying chariots were refined, it wouldn’t be of much use. These four floating restrictions had never been used, so Chen Xun had to bring them out this time.
Chen Xun refined another Xunfeng Array into the bottom cabin.
The Xunfeng Formation was even weaker than the Profound Thunder Formation and the Profound Yin Heavy Water Formation, but it was a formation that the Kui Dragon Pavilion had never refined, nor had it appeared in Cloud Continent.
Chen Xun used it on this warship because he didn’t want others to see anything from it.
In addition, Chen Xun had also refined a shrinking formation restriction into a warship.
The restriction was removed from the Star Iron Demon’s body. Chen Xun still didn’t have the ability to refine it. This restriction could reduce the Star Iron Demon’s body to the size of a walnut, making it easy to carry.
Previously, it was useless. Chen Xun had more than a dozen of them with him in case he needed them.
Although the Void Origin Pearl could accommodate this warship, it was inevitable that it would be used in front of others in the future. The restriction could be used to camouflage the Void Origin Pearl, so that others would not be able to see through the Void Origin Pearl’s reality.
After that, Chen Xun spent nearly a month engraving a large number of profound talismans inside and outside the hull. These profound talismans were like layers upon layers of armor covering a warship, which was used to enhance the strength of the hull and its ability to ride through the wind and waves.
After spending a total of five months, Chen Xun was finally able to build the warship within the Void Origin Pearl.
Chi Hai folded his wings and stopped on the mast that had been modified with the blood flag. He excitedly flapped his enormous wings and croaked, “This warship is really beautiful. Has Master thought of giving the warship a resounding name?”
“Well, I haven’t thought about it. Do you have any good ideas?” Chen Xun saw a sly light flash in Chi Hai’s eyes, and he didn’t know what he was thinking.
“How about the Scarlet Sea?” Chi Hai shouted excitedly, “Master will definitely be able to kill Fallen Star Blood Scarlet Jade if he sails out to battle. Chi Hai is a good name. As for the four sects, only the Venerable ones know of Little Demon’s lowly name. Hearing that the Chi Hai is on the Fallen Star, they naturally know that Master is fine. There’s nothing to worry about in Tu Shan …”
“The name of the Scarlet Sea isn’t bad either!” Chen Xun said, “The Scarlet Sea lacks a huge sail. Remove that pair of bone wings from your body, and it’ll be just right for you to use!”
“No!” Chi Hai didn’t expect that the naming authority of the warship would be exchanged for the pair of bone wings on his body. He flapped his wings and was about to flee into the distance.
Chen Xun only smiled as he looked at where Chi Hai could escape from the Void Origin Pearl.
Chi Hai gave Chen Xun a look of fear in his heart. He flapped his wings and flew back. He hung upside down on the mast and unfurled his dark golden bone wings. He said, “Master, do you think Chi Hai can disguise himself as a sail by attaching himself to the mast? This way, he won’t have to work so hard to remove the bone wings from Chi Hai’s body …”
“Not bad!” Chen Xun rubbed his chin and looked at Chi Hai hanging upside down on the mast. From afar, it looked very similar to a ship’s sail. He said, “Now, the name Chi Hai is truly worthy of its name!”
He had been cultivating in the Void Origin Pearl all year round. The Crimson Sea Primordial Spirit had fused with his own demon body and spirit flesh to the point where he could begin cultivating. He was no longer a War Soul Puppet in the ordinary sense. At this moment, he did not dare to casually damage his body.
Otherwise, with his extremely slow cultivation speed, it wouldn’t take him several years to recover from the wounds on his body …
After a long time, Chi Hai confirmed that Chen Xun was just scaring him, and he came to life again, retrieving the Snake Wuxin and the witch black tea that he had carelessly cultivated in the forest.
In the past, they didn’t have a fixed dwelling in the Void Origin Pearl, using the heavens as their dwelling and the earth as their seats. Now that this warship was built, they had a dwelling where they could rest.
Snake Wuxin was still as foolish as a fool. Although she had the highest degree of fusion with spirit flesh, her intelligence was only comparable to that of a seven or eight-year-old chick.
Compared to Snake Wuxin and Chi Hai, the witch black tea had the greatest change in the Void Origin Pearl.
Originally, Chen Xun had absorbed the witch’s black tea into the Void Origin Pearl. Her demon body was fifty to sixty feet tall, but as the soul of the black tea gradually fused with the spirit flesh, the demon body of the black tea slowly shrank to half its original size.
