Upon hearing this, True God Black Rock showed no surprise whatsoever, as if he had already anticipated their response. His tone was calm yet carried an undeniable authority:
"In that case, let's board my eternal warship as soon as possible."
His gaze swept across the screen, and he added casually:
"When hunting the Hongmeng Giant Kun, the aftershocks will be enough to affect your smaller warships. Only by boarding a ship can you avoid being hit."
Hun Qianling quickly cupped his hands again and said:
"Thank you, True God Black Rock."
True God Black Rock nodded slightly, said no more, and the figure on the screen slowly faded away, and the communication was also disconnected.
The moment the communication was cut off, Hun Qianling's tense mind relaxed slightly, and an undisguised joy appeared on her face. She turned to look at Han Xuanji, her tone full of relief:
"We're incredibly lucky! I was just worried that for the rest of the voyage, we'd have to follow the usual routes, and if we ran into those wandering bandits, we wouldn't stand a chance. But now that we're traveling with the True God Black Rock, we should be able to reach the Eternal Continent safely."
Han Xuanji nodded slowly:
"We've been quite lucky. From the moment we set out until now, apart from encountering this Hongmeng Giant Kun that was being chased, we haven't encountered any real danger."
The two exchanged a glance, neither harboring the slightest doubt.
They knew very well that the True God Black Rock was a powerful being at the Eternal True God Realm, with unfathomable strength, while they were merely at the Eternal Dao Master Realm. The difference in strength between them was like an insurmountable chasm. If an Eternal True God wanted to control them, he wouldn't need to go to great lengths to set up a trap; he could easily crush countless cultivators like them.
Han Xuanji sighed softly, her tone tinged with helplessness:
"Moreover, if we hadn't agreed just now, that would have been the real danger."
Since a powerful figure of this caliber has extended an invitation, it already shows us respect. If we insist on refusing and anger him, the consequences could be unimaginable.
Ultimately, it comes down to a lack of personal strength; one has to be subservient to others.
Han Xuanji once again experienced the helplessness brought about by the gap in strength.
He felt a secret urgency, hoping to reach the Eternal Continent as soon as possible.
Before long, a gentle force shot out from the large Eternal Warship in front, instantly enveloping the Thousand Spirits.
The next second, the Thousand Spirits was pulled by an invisible force and appeared directly in a docking area inside the large warship.
The two stepped out of the Thousand Spirits. Hun Qianling raised her hand and waved it, her fingertips flashing with spiritual light. The Thousand Spirits was instantly retrieved by her, and then the two followed the signs ahead.
Stepping into the center of the warship, Hun Qianling had been to such a large warship before, so she didn't feel anything special.
Han Xuanji was shocked.
This large warship was indeed extraordinary. The passageway was incredibly wide, and the walls on both sides were inlaid with crystals that emitted a soft glow, which could not only provide illumination but also have the power to drive away Spirit of Hongmeng. The decorations inside the warship exuded ultimate luxury and profound cultural heritage.
Along the way, one could see cultivators in armor hurrying by from time to time. Most of them wore light gray armor and exuded the pressure of the Eternal Dao Master Realm. Their expressions were calm, and their steps were hurried but orderly.
There were also a few others wearing the same silver armor as the True God Black Rock, only in a different style. They were all powerful beings at the Eternal True Lord Realm, and each of them exuded an aura of sharpness in their eyes, clearly indicating that they were all powerful beings who had undergone countless trials.
When these cultivators saw Han Xuanji and Hun Qianling, they merely glanced at them indifferently, without showing the slightest contempt.
They already knew Hun Qianling's identity. Although he was only a subordinate force of the Sacred Court, he was no ordinary person to possess a small Eternal Warship.
It should be noted that many powerful individuals who have just entered the Eternal True Lord Realm can only barely afford a small Eternal Warship as a temporary measure. Eternal Dao Master can own his own warship must have a noble background.
Moreover, the two of them possessed a rather refined aura, clearly indicating that they also had some strength.
Han Xuanji observed the surroundings, a bitter smile playing on his lips.
Once upon a time, the Hunyuan Wuji Realm was an unattainable peak in his eyes. In the Chaos, a Primordial Hunyuan Wuji expert was already a hegemon.
But now that I've stepped beyond the Chaos, I truly understand what it means that " the Hunyuan Wuji than a dog, and eternal powerhouses are everywhere."
Especially this True God Black Rock, who possesses such a large Eternal Warship and comes from the Eternal Chamber of Commerce, one of the nine supreme powers, must be one of the most powerful Eternal True God. Perhaps he is only one step away from the legendary Eternal Saint Realm.
The cultivators under his command, who would be powerful figures in the outside world, could only serve as his subordinates here, demonstrating the profound foundation of the Eternal Chamber of Commerce and the formidable strength of the True God Black Rock.
Hun Qianling seemed to sense Han Xuanji's thoughts and transmitted her voice:
" True God Black Rock holds a high position in the Eternal Chamber of Commerce. To be able to command such a large Eternal Warship, his subordinates must all be elites."
We just need to behave ourselves and wait until we reach the Eternal Continent; there's no need to be too cautious.
Han Xuanji nodded slowly, withdrew his gaze, and became even more determined to improve his strength.
Only by being strong enough can one gain a foothold in this world full of powerful people and no longer have to depend on others.
Not long after, while the two were resting in the waiting room...
A member of the Black Rock Warship, clad in gray armor and exuding a refined aura, hurried over and said:
" The True God invites you; please follow me."
Hun Qianling and Han Xuanji exchanged a glance, both composed themselves, and nodded in response:
"Thank you for your trouble, fellow Daoist."
They then followed the monk through layers of passages toward the warship's main control room.
The cultivators along the way remained calm upon seeing this, though they stepped aside to give way.
The main control room of the large warship was incredibly spacious, with a huge holographic screen in the center displaying the real-time movements of the Hongmeng Giant Kun. Dozens of control panels surrounded the screen, where cultivators performed their duties with serious expressions and complete concentration.
True God Black Rock sat upright in the captain's chair at the front, his aura even more concentrated than in the communications. Seeing the two enter, he slowly raised his eyes, his gaze sweeping over them, his tone becoming more even:
"No need for formalities, please have a seat."
After the two were seated, True God Black Rock slowly spoke, asking as if casually:
"Is there any important matter you wish to discuss upon returning to the Eternal Continent?"
While the two waited, True God Black Rock had already found out about the Soul Household, and his gaze towards Hun Qianling became somewhat strange.
Hun Qianling rose slightly, her expression respectful, and answered flawlessly:
"Reporting to the True God, our purpose in setting sail this time was solely to hunt down Hongmeng Variant and accumulate Cultivation Resources; we had no other important business."
Now that he has accumulated enough resources, he plans to return to the Eternal Continent to cultivate in seclusion and strive for a higher realm.
Upon hearing this, True God Black Rock nodded and said:
"I see."
He paused, as if wanting to say something but remained silent, before finally speaking slowly:
"Let me tell you, it will take me about ten more years to hunt down this Hongmeng Giant Kun. After the hunt is over, we will return to the Eternal Continent together, which should take about thirty years, no later than you originally expected."
Hun Qianling quickly cupped his hands in thanks, saying, "Thank you for informing us, True God True God. We will follow your arrangements."
But Han Xuanji, who was standing to the side, frowned upon hearing this.
A strange sense of unease crept into my heart.
