Chapter 34

“What an impressive swift boat.”

When Li Lingtian saw the swift boat, his heart screamed with astonishment while he also felt extremely curious. He wondered what this vehicle was relying on to fly, about the swift boat’s speed and how it was even able to fly.

The four Elders hurriedly entered the swift boat the moment landed before the remaining disciples walked up excitedly as well.

Li Lingtian took one last glance at Tang Zimeng, Xue Da, and the other. Then, he finally turned around and walked toward the swift boat.

Once he entered the swift boat, he saw the four Elders placing a fist-sized spiritual stone into a card slot. The intense Spiritual Qi that this spiritual stone was much stronger than that of mediocre spiritual stones.

‘It’s a premium spiritual stone!’ Li Lingtian thought to himself in surprise.

This also meant that premium spiritual stones existed. If an ordinary spiritual stone was worth one hundred mediocre spiritual stones, then a premium spiritual stone would be equivalent to one hundred ordinary spiritual stones.

In other words, a premium spiritual stone could be exchanged for ten thousand mediocre ones. After all, a spiritual stone would be more precious when its quality was better.

However, nobody would exchange a premium spiritual stone for a mediocre one unless they were an idiot.

The Elders had exhausted a premium spiritual stone just to power this swift boat for one trip, but they had a good reason to do so. For the sake of the Sky Cloud Sect’s glory for the next one hundred years, they had no choice but to bring out this premium spiritual stone.

Once the premium spiritual stone was placed inside the card slot, the swift boat suddenly produced a faint glow before that ray of light eventually enveloped the entire vehicle.

“Rise.”

Immediately after Elder Bai Yan had commanded and cast the spell quietly, the swift boat quickly rose from the ground. At last, it was floating through the air without stopping at all. The swift boat quickly flew out of Sky Cloud Sect and in the blink of an eye, it had left that place.

‘It’s almost as fast as the planes in the previous world.’

Li Lingtian thought to himself. Deep down, he was extremely shocked when he noticed its speed. Although the swift boat was slightly slower than a plane, it was still very stable.

Besides, he could see everything outside. More than two hundred people were standing inside the swift boat and looking at the clouds that were moving behind them. They had even traveled past the Sky Mountains.

Although they were moving quickly, they could not hear the sound of the wind at all because the strong gale was blocked by the faint shield of light on the outside.

‘This is probably what it feels like to wield a sword as though you were flying.”

As he watched the swift boat cruising along, Li Lingtian felt moved. He recalled how he had watched someone on television talk about wielding a sword with such precision that you felt like you were flying, and he realized that this was probably what they meant.

It was impossible for the Warriors in Divine Martial Continent who were ranked lower than Warrior Ascendants to steer an aircraft through the sky. They could only rely on powerful bursts of strength to leap around and on Spiritual Equipment to fly.

If one was a Powerhouse who had achieved the Warrior Ascendant level, they could stand up in midair and suspend themselves there or choose to freely travel between the sky and land as they pleased.

Li Lingtian felt incredibly curious when he started to look at the scenery outside. This was the first time he had left the Sky Cloud Sect and properly entered this world.

He looked down at the villages of various sizes below him. The young man could also occasionally see cities that were quite similar to the ones that he had read about in books.

However, this sense of curiously gradually vanished. So, he sat down cross-legged before he started to cultivate. The other Warriors were also doing their own cultivations because they were still in Sky Dragon Empire’s realm.

Since the distance between Hidden Dragon Isle and Sky Dragon Empire was more than ten thousand miles, they would need four or five days to arrive at their destination despite using a swift boat.

They flew for a day before they finally left Sky Dragon Empire’s realm. While they were in the sky, they would occasionally encounter Super Powerhouses who were wielding swords as they flew. They had even encountered several clans from the sects who were on the swift boats as well.

Li Lingtian thought highly of those Warriors. Although he was very certain that Sky Cloud Sect was one of the Big Four super-Sects in the Sky Dragon Empire, he was also aware that it was not the most powerful sect.

There were many other clans and sects who were incredibly powerful despite being hidden for generations. Li Lingtian came upon this realization when he saw the disciples below him.

Although the sky was filled with Warrior Spirit Powerhouses who were flying around, he had only seen a few ordinary Warriors. There were even several Tier Eight or Tier Nine Warrior Spirit Powerhouses among them who were below thirty years old.

As time passed, the group from Sky Cloud Sect had encountered many more Powerhouses. The other sects had more than two hundred disciples each, and all of them were Warrior Spirit Powerhouses.

“Bai Yan, I have never imagined that you’d be the one leading the group to Hidden Dragon Isle this time when it opened up.”

A loud voice rang out and caused everyone’s eardrums to hurt as the sound vibrated among them. Li Lingtian and the others had noticed the other gigantic swift boat in the sky long ago. There were more than two hundred Warrior Spirit Powerhouses in the swift boat and four Warrior King Powerhouses.

The person who spoke was a Tier Six Warrior King Powerhouse who had a hint of disdain on his face. There was also a tinge of ridicule in his tone. Even though Bai Yan was also a Tier Six Warrior King, Sky Cloud Sect was not as powerful as the other group in terms of their overall strength.

“Long Haotian, I can’t believe Radiant Sect allowed you to lead the group. Could it be that the sect had no other choice?”

Bai Yan did not display any sign of weakness. It was obvious that neither party was willing to lose to the other because they were both one of the Big Four super forces in Sky Dragon Empire. As for the other party’s four Warrior Kings, one of them was a Tier Six Warrior King and the other three were Tier Five Warrior Kings. Meanwhile, Bai Yan was a Tier Six Warrior King and the others in his group were either Tier Three or Tier Four Warrior Kings.

“Bai Yan, we haven’t seen each other for so many years, but your tongue has grown so sharp. Unfortunately, I can’t tell if you’ve gotten any stronger.”

Long Haotian looked slightly angry, but he knew that it was inappropriate for him to lose his temper in front of all these disciples. Furthermore, numerous super forces were gathered on Hidden Dragon Isle now because it was open. If the Sky Dragon Empire’s forces were not united, it would reflect badly on them.

“Why don’t we try it and see?”

Bai Yan stood up on the swift boat. Since the two swift boats were still flying, it was obvious that the men would not fight each other now because they would still require a two-day journey to get to Hidden Dragon Isle from here.

“Why must both of you insist on arguing every time you meet?”

At this moment, a quiet female voice echoed from the sky. The voice rang out when another gigantic swift boat appeared before the crowd.

All the disciples turned to look at the swift boat that came from behind them. Anyone brave enough to scold two Warrior King Powerhouses was definitely not an ordinary person.

The disciples could see that numerous Warrior Spirit disciples were standing inside the swift boat while two young women stood at the head of the vehicle. Both of them were dressed in thin robes that gave off a gentle aura.

However, Bai Yan and Long Haotian had terrified looks on their faces when they saw those two young women.

“Hello, Celestial Fairy Bai Ling and Celestial Fairy Qing Ling of Misty Pavilion.”

Bai Yan calmed himself down before he greeted those two young women. Li Lingtian instantly noticed that awkward look on the other man’s face. This made Li Lingtian curious about the women who had managed to fill Bai Yan and Long Haotian with such dread; they must be unique individuals.

“Celestial Fairy Bai Ling and Celestial Fairy Qing Ling are more than what meets the eye. Despite their appearances, they’re actually on the same level as Elder Bai Yan and the others. Not only are they Warrior King Powerhouses, but those two celestial fairies are also Tier Nine Warrior Kings.”

Zhou Yun explained softly to Li Lingtian when he noticed the curious look on the latter’s face. Frankly, he was also curious about his Junior Brother, Li Lingtian. Zhou Yun felt rather fearful because Li Lingtian was a Tier Nine Warrior despite being fifteen years old. Furthermore, he had even killed Duanmu Qing who was a Tier Six Warrior Spirit!

“Oh, is that so? No wonder.”

Li Lingtian nodded to show his gratitude toward Zhou Yun.

“It had never crossed my mind that those two celestial fairies would lead the group from Misty Pavilion. I believe Misty Pavilion is very confident this time around.”

Long Haotian spoke loudly. Indeed, the difference between Tier Six and Tier Nine Warrior Kings was worlds apart. However, since they were all super forces of the Skyf Dragon Empire, it was obvious that these sects would not have any internal strife with each other at this moment.

“I’ve heard rumors that there are several Super-Geniuses in Radiant Sect who have already stepped foot in the Warrior King realm.”

When Celestial Fairy Qing Ling’s exquisite eyes glanced toward the Radiant Sect’s swift boat, all of Radiant Sect’s disciples could suddenly feel a malicious aura, as though a venomous snake was staring at them.

None of them could hide their cultivation levels because Celestial Fairy could see everything clearly.

“Celestial Fairy Qing Ling’s See Through Technique has improved again.”

Long Haotian was incredibly gleeful when he heard Celestial Fairy Qing Ling had praised the disciples of his sect. Luckily for him, Celestial Fairy Qing Ling and the other woman could not enter Hidden Dragon Isle anymore because they were already over thirty years old. Otherwise, Radiant Sect would be in deep trouble even if there were ten of these sects.

Li Lingtian had a great deal of respect for Misty Pavilion and the Radiant Sect’s cultivation levels because they were much stronger than the Sky Cloud Sect. When he compared Sky Cloud Sect to the other two groups, he realized that there was a significant difference between them.

This was particularly true for the three Tier Nine Warrior Spirit Geniuses in Radiant Sect. However, Li Lingtian could not determine the cultivation level of those two white-robed women from Misty Pavilion.

“Haha, your group was moving at a rather impressive speed as well. You arrived slightly earlier than us.”

A hearty chuckle echoed from the faraway sky while the Warrior King Powerhouses were chatting with each other.

A huge swift boat suddenly tore through the sky and arrived. This swift boat was much larger than the one that Misty Pavillion owned and it looked like a gigantic warship.

“Tian He, you old fart. It seems like you weren’t far behind.”

Bai Yan seemed more relaxed this time. His expression also looked more pleased now as he turned to the swift boat in the distance and yelled loudly.

“Haha, long time no see, Bai Yan. Your cultivation level is still the same.”

The gigantic swift boat was suspended in the air before a mysterious old man in a loose red robe exited from the vehicle. The man seemed like a ball of fire because his eyebrows, beard, and hair were all a fiery shade of red.

Once the red-robed elder left the swift boat, he moved through the air and finally stopped in front of Sky Cloud Sect’s swift boat.

All of the disciples and Warrior Kings were instantly stunned when they saw his actions. They also had terrified expressions on their faces now.

“Warrior Ascendant.”

“He has become a Warrior Ascendant.”

“Tian He, you old fart. You’ve achieved the Warrior Ascendant stage.”

Celestial Fairy Qing Ling, Bai Yan, Long Haotian, and the other Warrior King Powerhouses looked completely dumbfounded. When they finally spoke out of shock, there was still a look of disbelief on their faces.

This person’s arrival had caused a bigger stir than when Celestial Fairy Qing Ling and Celestial Fairy Bai Ling arrived.

“Haha, I successfully became a Warrior Ascendant after I received a three thousand-year-old White Cloud Flower.”

The red-robed elder chuckled loudly after he spoke. There was a huge distance between Warrior Kings and Warrior Ascendants. In this case, the difference of one Tier was equivalent to the difference between heaven and earth, or the gap between each Realm.

This did not apply to Warrior Ascendants only. Even if there was only a one Tier difference between Warrior Kings, that could mean a world of difference for them. In that sense, the difference would be even more apparent between Warrior Ascendants.
