In the following days, Yi Zijin kept his promise and indeed did not bother Wang Chen anymore.
Wang Chen was glad for the peace and devoted himself to cultivating. Not only had his Innate Five Elents Skill improved, but he had also finally understood the skill to advance to the next tier of Talisman Crafting Technique through the "True Explanation of Upper Clear Spirit Talisman Atlas."
Interdiate Talisman Crafting Technique!
This ant that Wang Chen could now craft second-tier Spirit Talismans.
Unfortunately, he lacked a Talisman Pen, Talisman Paper, and Talisman Ink, all necessary for crafting second-tier Spirit Talismans.
So, for the ti being, he wasn't able to produce any finished Spirit Talismans.
The Giant Whale made several stops along the way.
So passengers disembarked, and new ones ca on board.
Since the Flying Warship only stopped at large Immortal Cities for a short ti, Wang Chen had never gone down.
Ti passed day by day, and before he knew it, he had already been living on the Giant Whale for almost half a month.
They weren't far from their destination now.
Wooh! Wooh! Wooh~
One day, as Wang Chen was cultivating in his quiet room, the Giant Whale suddenly shook violently, and soon after, he heard a deep and urgent horn sound.
He imdiately stopped his practice and got up to leave the quiet room.
Wang Chen had just opened the cabin door when Yi Zijin ca striding over, his face full of excitent.
He shouted at Wang Chen, "Haha, our ship is under attack!"
Wang Chen really wanted to split Yi Zijin's head open with his Wind Thunder Sword to see what was inside it.
Was an attack sothing to be happy about?
Yi Zijin was indeed overjoyed, "Finally, sothing thrilling! Co on, let's go to the deck and watch the fun!"
Wang Chen finally understood that the thought processes of this Cultivator from the Flower Grotto Sect were different from those of normal people.
He was forcibly dragged by Yi Zijin out of the VIP cabin to the outside deck.
It wasn't just Wang Chen and Yi Zijin who had co out to see the excitent.
There were more than a dozen Purple Mansion Cultivators standing on the front deck.
The four sides' sails of the Giant Whale had just been stowed, and the massive ship was enveloped in a light golden glow.
Without a doubt, its protective formation had been activated.
The Giant Whale's flight speed had decreased significantly.
And what was attacking the Flying Warship were winged giant lizards!
They gathered from all directions, spitting fierce flas at the Giant Whale, so crashing into the Mana Barrier, trying desperately to tear at it with their sharp claws and teeth.
"Fire Lizards!"
Yi Zijin's face changed, "So many of them!"
Fire Lizards were real Monster Beasts, belonging to the second-tier Spirit Monster level.
Although they were the weakest in the second-tier Spirit Monsters, they outnumbered their opponents and always moved in groups.
The group of Fire Lizards the Giant Whale encountered numbered at least a hundred, their mass appearing quite terrifying.
Under their siege, the Mana Barrier enveloping the Flying Warship fluctuated violently.
If this situation continued, the protective layer would inevitably be breached!
"Fellow Daoists..."
At that mont, a strong voice reached everyone's ears, "The Monster Beasts are formidable. I would be grateful if you all could lend a hand, Tan is much obliged!"
By then, the number of Purple Mansion Cultivators appearing on deck had surpassed thirty.
Click! Click! Click!
Accompanied by the sound of chanisms operating, the edges of the deck's planks sunk down, and a series of Heavy Crossbows flipped up.
These heavy crossbows were unmanned, automatically stringing and notching arrows, aid high at the flying fire tricks in the sky.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
One after another, two-zhang-long crossbow arrows shot out instantly.
But the flying fire tricks were extrely agile, and as soon as they saw the heavy crossbows targeting them, they imdiately scattered and darted away.
Most of the fired crossbow arrows missed their mark, with only a few striking two monster beasts that failed to dodge in ti.
The bodies of the flying fire tricks were covered in a dense layer of scales. Although the crossbow arrows fired by the heavy crossbows were powerful, after piercing through the scales, they hardly had any strength left to penetrate deeply into the beasts' bodies.
Thus, the two flying fire tricks were wounded but not killed.
Screech~
They let out painful and angry screams, distancing themselves from the Giant Whale with the crossbow arrows still lodged in them.
Blood, profuse and fresh, spattered across the sky.
The other flying fire tricks were thoroughly enraged.
Far from being daunted by the Giant Whale's retaliation, they beca even more frenzied.
These flying fire tricks opened their gaping maws and spit out clusters of fireballs at the massive warship.
Although the fireballs slamd into the ship's hull and were blocked by the mana barrier, the explosive force generated by the impact slowly chipped away at the golden light enveloping the Giant Whale.
The Purple Mansion cultivators standing on the deck could no longer stand by idly and watch the commotion.
They each stimulated their mana, casting spells to bombard the rampaging flying fire tricks.
The combat power of the Purple Mansion cultivators was incomparable to that of the Qi Cultivation cultivators; once they made their move, they imdiately created a scene and montum as if the sky was falling and the earth was splitting.
Gales howled and blade light danced, lightning thundered down like rain, and ice blades and snow swords galloped across, the combined counterattack from over thirty Purple Mansion cultivators blanketed dozens of flying fire tricks in an instant!
The first to bear the brunt were torn into pieces in an instant.
The subsequent flying fire tricks did not escape unscathed either, so were charred by lightning, others had their bodies torn open by wind blades, and still, others were gripped by translucent giant hands and rcilessly crushed, mixing bone and flesh into one!
In the blink of an eye, the space in front of the Giant Whale was instantly cleared.
At the sa ti, more and more cultivators appeared on the deck, joining the fray to defend the flying warship.
The flying fire tricks around them were instantly terrified out of their wits, emitting panicked cries as they desperately scattered in all directions.
But the cultivators, now in their slaughter, were nowhere near ready to let off, each summoning their magic artifacts or flying swords.
Chasing after the fleeing flying fire tricks.
Thinking they could co and go as they pleased, was there ever such a cheap deal!
And Wang Chen, being part of it, also pitched in.
He waved his sleeve and released the Wind Thunder Sword, piercing through the head of a flying fire trick dozens of zhang away with a single strike.
Using the sa Thunderbolt Sword Technique, Wang Chen's attack, with his current Purple Mansion cultivation level, increased its lethality manifold.
After the Wind Thunder Sword penetrated the lizard head of that flying fire trick, the rolling thunder only then reached everyone's ears.
[Human Virtue 217]
A single flying fire trick contributed 217 points of Human Virtue to Wang Chen!
Regrettably, when he was eager to continue harvesting Human Virtue, the nearest flying fire tricks were already a hundred zhang away, fleeing so fast they were almost out of sight.
Wang Chen had no choice but to call back his flying sword.
The crisis averted, the Giant Whale's sails unfurled once more, and the ship quickly regained its speed, continuing its forward flight.
In truth, for the Giant Whale, being attacked by a group of flying fire tricks wasn't much during its hundreds of thousands of li journey. It was rely that this ti the number of monster beasts was rather high, which is why the passengers were asked to help.
Otherwise, relying solely on the ship's inbuilt armant would have been sufficient.
Three days later, the Giant Whale landed on the outskirts of a city.
