Chen Changming sniffed hard, trying to identify the source of the smell.

After a final effort, he realized that the smell was coming from the five people opposite him.

The five men, wearing black cloaks, sat in a row with their backs against the wall.

On the other side of the wall, four people were sitting.

He was with Liu Qingwu, and two unfamiliar men.

A handsome middle-aged man suddenly turned around, clasped his hands in a fist and smiled at Liu Qingwu, "So you are Miss Liu of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion. I am Red Flame Sect Tang Xiaohu, from the Chiyan Sect of the Yan Kingdom."

"Nice to meet you."

Liu Qingwu smiled slightly, which was considered a return gesture.

"Miss Liu, I am Meng Zitian, from the State of the Zhao Kingdom." Another male cultivator also hurriedly greeted him.

Liu Qingwu nodded slightly.

"Fellow Daoists, there's no need for such formalities. After you arrive in the Great Qin, we hope you will frequently grace our Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion with your presence."

"Definitely, definitely."

Tang Xiaohu and Meng Zitian laughed at the same time.

Once they started talking, the two couldn't stop, constantly asking Liu Qingwu for advice on matters of the Great Qin. Liu Qingwu answered all their questions without reservation.

After all, she's a businesswoman too.

If she achieves the Golden Core stage one day, her father will naturally hand over a portion of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion's business to her.

Taking this opportunity, Chen Changming said he was going outside for some fresh air, and stood up to walk towards the door.

He deliberately circled around the five people, then pushed open the door and went outside.

At this moment, the Floating Airship has slowly taken off.

In the distance, the rising sun cast its golden rays upon the vast ocean, and the sea breeze gradually picked up, ruffling Chen Changming's hair.

His face was somewhat gloomy.

He deliberately approached the five people and sniffed them carefully. He discovered that all five of them were emitting the same scent, which most people would have overlooked.

However, Chen Changming was extremely wary of the Yin Corpse Seed, so he was also very sensitive to this smell.

"Five Foundation Establishment Stage 10..."

Chen Changming murmured to himself.

Once it becomes Yin Corpse Seed, after transforming into Yin Corpse Puppet Body, its physical body is also extremely powerful, just like Body Cultivator.

Therefore, these five people also possess the strength of Body Cultivator, but it is unknown what level they have reached.

At this moment, a shadow fell over his heart.

Chen Changming frowned, wondering if these people would really dare to make a move on the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion's spaceship?

There were three Foundation Establishment 10 cultivators in this room, and the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion also had protective measures on this spaceship. Chen Changming personally witnessed two Foundation Establishment Level 10 men boarding the spaceship as well.

After some analysis, he concluded that the other party was highly unlikely to make a move on the Floating Airship. If they were to make a move, it would have to be after he disembarked, thus avoiding provoking the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion.

These people likely had ulterior motives for going to the Great Qin.

After a while of sea breeze, the Floating Airship flew into the vast ocean. At this moment, the formation on the airship was activated, and a semi-transparent, earth-yellow light shield appeared.

Not long after, the celestial phenomena suddenly changed. Thick clouds rolled across the sky, resembling countless ferocious beasts galloping about, with lightning constantly striking down like long swords tearing through the sky. These lightning bolts looked extremely fierce, striking the light shield activated by the array of the Floating Airship and emitting dazzling light.

The light shield swayed intermittently under the attack of lightning.

After passing through the thunderstorm area, the sky gradually cleared up.

At this moment, flying Demon Beast discovered the Floating Airship. With a flap of their wings, they stirred up gusts of wind and pounced directly at it.

Beams of light shot out from the Floating Airship, driving away the flying Demon Beast.

Seeing that Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion was very experienced, Chen Changming felt relieved. He enjoyed the scenery outside for a while longer before returning to his room.

From Linqing City to the Great Qin territory, at the speed of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion's Floating Airship, it would only take two days to arrive.

If it were a spaceship belonging to a powerful sect, the speed might be even faster.

However, most sects in the Great Qin Dynasty wouldn't send anyone to this small vassal state, since in the eyes of the cultivators in the Great Qin Immortal Realm, it was considered a remote and impoverished place.

In addition, the sea is fraught with dangers, with various complex celestial phenomena and numerous Demon Beast in the air and sea; those with weak cultivation levels will surely perish if they enter.

So for so many years, the cultivation Immortal Realm of the Great Qin seems to have forgotten about this place. Only businessmen like Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion would open up shipping routes and travel back and forth to seek profits.

Tang Xiaohu and Meng Zitian were still chatting idly with Liu Qingwu, while the person opposite them, wearing a black cloak, remained unmoved, sitting cross-legged on the floor.

Chen Changming sat down next to Liu Qingwu.

"Miss Liu, this fellow cultivator is only at the second level of Foundation Establishment, how come he's boarded the ship?"

Emboldened by his previous conversations and the closer relationship he had built with Liu Qingwu, Tang Xiaohu became bolder.

"Fellow Daoist Luo once saved my life, so I'm repaying his favor."

Liu Qingwu smiled.

Tang Xiaohu and Meng Zitian were shocked to hear this. They hadn't expected that this Foundation Establishment Level 2 cultivator had actually saved Miss Liu. In an instant, they began to look at Chen Changming in a completely different light, and their attitudes changed drastically.

"Fellow Daoist Luo, where are you from?"

Tang Xiaohu then turned the conversation to Chen Changming, asking him all sorts of questions.

Chen Changming was also giving perfunctory replies. He could tell that both Tang Xiaohu and Meng Zitian were extremely smooth and opportunistic.

After chatting for several hours, everyone was a little tired, so they tacitly stopped talking, closed their eyes to regulate their breathing and rest, and the whole room became extremely quiet.

Chen Changming squinted, leaving a narrow opening in his eyes.

His attention remained focused on the five men opposite him, without the slightest relaxation.

As the sun dipped below the ocean, the sky turned pitch black, and strong, fierce gusts of wind swept in, violently whipping the small spaceship in the air.

Protected by the array, the Floating Airship's speed was only slightly affected.

A Gray-Robed Man wearing a black cloak suddenly stood up, stretched his limbs, and made a series of popping sounds.

Tang Xiaohu opened his eyes and glared at him with displeasure.

The other four people also stood up one after another and began to stretch their muscles.

This unusual behavior immediately alerted the others.

Liu Qingwu also frowned slightly, unsure of what these people meant.

Chen Changming was on high alert, his nerves taut, ready to unleash the Demon Spirit Vine at any moment.

After all, the other side had many people, not only with Foundation Establishment cultivation but also with very powerful Yin Corpse bodies. If they attacked him simultaneously, even with his strong physical body, he probably wouldn't be able to dodge.

"Fellow Daoist Tang, Fellow Daoist Meng, we need to discuss a business deal with Miss Liu. Would you two please step aside for a moment?"

The Gray-Robed Man smiled faintly.

Tang Xiaohu frowned. "What kind of business is this so late at night? Can't we talk about it tomorrow?"

"No."

The Gray-Robed Man took a step forward, and at the same time, the other four also took a step forward. The atmosphere in the entire room immediately became extremely oppressive.

The oppressive aura emanating from the five Foundation Establishment Level 10 experts surged forth like a mighty river.
