"Only this Netherworld Tongxuan Sword in my hands can sense the flow of that Sword Qi. Stay close to me, or the consequences will be unimaginable!"
Lady Zhu Qu turned back to look at everyone, reminding them once again.
Ling Feng's eyes flickered with a sharp light as he glanced at the sword in Lady Zhu Qu's hand, a slight curve appearing at the corner of his mouth.
Lady Zhu Qu held this sword, which was akin to an amulet. If the group wanted to get out safely, they naturally had to follow her instructions.
However, Ling Feng quickly discovered that his Emperor's Eye could also perceive those Sword Qi's trajectories. As long as he didn't touch crucial positions, there wouldn't be much danger.
So, even without Lady Zhu Qu leading the way, Ling Feng could rely on the power of the Emperor's Eye to find a safe route.
Of course, Ling Feng wouldn't foolishly expose this ability and just followed in Lady Zhu Qu's footsteps as they moved deeper into the warship.
...
Merely a few hundred meters felt like three days and nights to them, an indescribable exhaustion weighing them down.
"Alright, we're almost there."
Lady Zhu Qu paused slightly, a stiff smile on her face as she tried to comfort the temporary companions behind her.
Shui Wuheng and Lan Yuhuang nodded with effort, cautiously following closely behind Lady Zhu Qu, the atmosphere tense to the extreme.
Bald Blade Emperor was so tense that his breathing nearly stopped—those who killed so many were often the most afraid of death.
Only Ling Feng, at the end of the group, looked incredibly relaxed, but in such circumstances, no one had the time to turn back and notice him.
No one dared to breathe heavily, but thankfully, they made it to a door without incident.
Lady Zhu Qu sighed in relief and said in a deep voice, "Here, there are no Sword Arrays ahead; you may rest for a while."
Speaking, Lady Zhu Qu stepped to the door, walked a few steps casually, and finding no Sword Qi presence, indicated the area was safe. She also wiped her forehead; though holding the Netherworld Tongxuan Sword allowed her to bypass the triggering of the Sword Array, if anyone behind her took the wrong step, her life was also at risk.
"Phew..."
Bald Blade Emperor, Shui Wuheng, and Lan Yuhuang all breathed a sigh of relief, with Ling Feng nonchalantly taking the final step, standing before the bronze door, his expression calm.
"Young Master Long is indeed an alchemist, with a Divine Soul talent far beyond ordinary, not worrying at all about taking a wrong step."
Lady Zhu Qu smiled faintly, thinking she knew why Ling Feng was so calm.
"Hmph, I'm more worried about this Fatty, his size too large, ruining everything!"
Lan Yuhuang snorted lightly, clearly holding a grudge against Ling Feng for ignoring her throughout the journey.
"By the way..."
Lady Zhu Qu thought for a moment, then turned and said, "I still have some Nine Revolutions Calming Elixirs here. Within the warship, perhaps due to the overwhelming grievance's influence, the air contains forces disturbing one's mind. Each of you take one as a precaution."
Saying this, Lady Zhu Qu first swallowed one, showing that the elixirs were non-toxic.
Bald Blade Emperor, being the most straightforward, directly took an elixir and swallowed it with a gulp.
Lan Yuhuang scoffed, took an elixir, and said lightly, "No one can play poison tricks in front of me!"
"This..."
Shui Wuheng, with the deepest scheming, hesitated for a moment. Seeing Lan Yuhuang also took one, he then confidently took an elixir and swallowed it.
"Young Master Long, what about you?"
Lady Zhu Qu looked at Ling Feng, handing the last elixir to Ling Feng.
