The Core Control Room of the Treasure Ship

A certain sea area.

Cheng Buzheng stood on the sea. He glanced at the Treasure Ship not far away, then transformed into a beam of light and rushed towards Treasure Ship.

At the same time, the azure Light Screen on the Treasure Ship also disappeared.

On the deck, many cultivators bowed respectfully and said:

"We pay our respects to the Garrison Commander!"

A unified sound rang out from the deck, drifting across the sea.

"Get up!"

Cheng Buzheng to help them up, and an invisible force caused all the cultivators to stand up involuntarily!

Then, he calmly said:

Who is the captain of this Treasure Ship?

Upon hearing this...

All the cultivators turned to look at a middle-aged cultivator dressed in the robes of the Spirit Source Academy.

Seeing this, the middle-aged cultivator stepped forward, bowed his head, and clasped his hands in greeting:

"Reporting to the Garrison Commander, I am indeed the captain of this ship!"

Cheng Buzheng said calmly:

Let's go!

"Don't delay any longer, this garrison commander cannot leave Xuanli Island for too long!"

The middle-aged cultivator quickly replied:

"Yes, sir!"

Then, he turned to look at the cultivators on one side and said:

"Ready to go!"

"Yes, Captain!"

The cultivators quickly clasped their hands in greeting.

After the cultivators had all left, the middle-aged cultivator gestured with his hand and said:

"Sir, this way please!"

The middle-aged captain led the way, explaining as he went.

Not long after.

The two arrived at the core control room of the Treasure Ship.

After Cheng Buzheng around, Cheng Buzheng noticed that the walls were covered with intricate patterns, but the interior was quite simple, with just a tea table and a few chairs.

The core control panel, however, was much more complex. In the very center was a square Jade Wall displaying the current state of the sea.

Directly above it is a palm-sized, radar-like device displaying a green dot that moves at varying distances, along with numerous moving pale red dots and various patterns.

The brightest green dot among them changed slightly as the Treasure Ship moved.

Upon seeing this, Cheng Buzheng understood that the green dots must represent the Treasure Ship.

The numerous pale red dots that move around should represent Demon Beast and Desolate Beast.

As for the patterns, they likely represent various islands.

At this moment, the green dot is moving towards a familiar pattern, which is very similar to the terrain of Xuanli Island.

Below the square Jade Wall at the center are several palm-sized rectangular Jade Wall, Jade Wall containing intricate patterns.

at this time.

The middle-aged captain was operating a turntable the size of a millstone.

Suddenly, he stretched out his palm and pressed it onto one of the rectangular Jade Wall.

Suddenly, a ball of energy shot out from the Treasure Ship, rushing towards the Desolate Beast blocking its path.

In an instant, the first-tier Desolate Beast was torn to pieces. Then, a giant hand of spiritual light flew out from the Treasure Ship, pulled the Desolate Beast back, and continued on its way.

Cheng Buzheng was quite enthusiastic about earning Spirit Stone, and seeing how efficient and convenient the Treasure Ship was, he immediately spoke up:

"Will the harvest of Desolate Beast killed on one round trip offset the consumption of Spirit Stone?"

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged cultivator replied while maintaining control of the Treasure Ship's direction:

"As long as we don't encounter any second-tier Demon Beast, we're basically guaranteed to make a profit!"

Then, he sighed softly:

"Thankfully, the adults came to our rescue in time, otherwise the losses would have been even greater!"

"This expenditure is enough to wipe out all the profits from the previous few years!"

Cheng Buzheng continued to ask:

"What are the benefits of traveling on the Treasure Ship?"

"The profits aren't very good either!" the middle-aged captain sighed.

"The Treasure Ship are charged according to the distance traveled!"

"On the journey from Xuanli Island to Huanqiu Island, most cultivators choose to disembark midway to hunt Demon Beast and Desolate Beast!"

Upon hearing this...

Cheng Buzheng also understood that every cultivator carefully calculated their Spirit Stone, but while they were very willing to spend them to improve their cultivation, they were also very stingy, especially when it came to unrelated things.

If the journey is short, I might fly there myself; if it's long, I'll disembark from the Treasure Ship earlier to save some Spirit Stone.

Thinking of this, he said calmly:

"How were the journey back on the Treasure Ship?"

The middle-aged cultivator casually said:

"Only members of the Tong Family Middle Vehicle the Treasure Ship this time, halfway through the journey."

Cheng Buzheng understood the instability of the Treasure Ship's profits from the middle-aged captain's answer!

Subsequently, Cheng Buzheng also learned from the other party's account the threat posed by the Outer Sea to low-level cultivators.

The other party's account of what he had seen and heard was no different from what he knew, but it was much more detailed, especially regarding his experiences with first-tier Demon Beast and Desolate Beast.

As the story unfolds...

Cheng Buzheng gained a clearer understanding of the common occurrence of first-tier Demon Beast and Desolate Beast in the Outer Sea area, while also knowing that high-tier Demon Beast and Desolate Beast rarely appeared.

Only by traveling on a treasure ship can Qi Refining Stage cultivators safely travel in the Outer Sea area, which is also the choice of most Qi Refining Stage cultivators.

As for Qi Refining Stage cultivators who want to die, they are very rare.

Moreover, in the Endless Sea, low-level Demon Beast and Desolate Beast mostly come in large groups, arriving in huge numbers.

Once they encounter a group of Demon Beast or Desolate Beast beasts, they can easily become their prey. Therefore, most cultivators hunt Demon Beast and Desolate Beast in teams.

A cultivator who wants to travel alone in the Outer Sea area must at least have the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Otherwise, they could easily disappear into the vast, Endless Sea.

If one reaches the Inner Sea, without the cultivation of the Golden Core Stage, even Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator cannot travel alone.

The spiritual energy in the Inner Sea area is much richer, and there are a large number of second-tier Demon Beast and Desolate Beast living there, and even third-tier Demon Beast and Desolate Beast are not uncommon!

As the conversation continued, time slowly passed!

Cheng Buzheng gazed at the cloudless sea, and every now and then a ray of light would flash back and forth.

See here.

Cheng Buzheng also knew that they were getting closer and closer to Xuanli Island, and the Jade Wall on the control panel, which resembled a radar, showed that the green dot was only a finger's width away from the pattern of Xuanli Island.

He then silently calculated for a moment.

The speed of this Treasure Ship is comparable to that of Foundation Establishment Late Stage, and even faster than his own.

Cheng Buzheng sighed inwardly:

"As expected of the Immortal Alliance, they are incredibly wealthy and powerful, equipping a small island with a strategic-level Treasure Tool!"

This strategic-grade Treasure Tool is vastly different from ordinary Treasure Tool Flying Boat boats!

Not only is it fast, but it is also equipped with Energy Cannon. The Spirit Material required to forge such a Treasure Ship are a hundred times that of ordinary Flying Boat Treasure Tool, and it requires a second-level Artifact Refiner with superb Immortal Arts to complete the forging.

Considering the sheer number of small islands under the Immortal Alliance's rule, and the sheer number of such Treasure Ship, it's an incredibly frightening figure.

Moreover, there are over a thousand medium-sized islands on it, so the Treasure Ship equipped with them would be of an even higher level, probably like the Heaven Escaping Boat of the White Cloud Sect, a Treasure Ship of the Law Treasure level.

This shows how wealthy the Immortal Alliance is!

In less than an hour, Cheng Buzheng spotted an island that looked strangely familiar.

A short while later.

The Treasure Ship hovered above a plaza Xuanli City.

See here.

Cheng Buzheng transformed into a ray of light and flew towards Xuanli City.
