Chapter 720: Flying Ship and Map [7 More]

God King?

Xiao Feng was first startled, then immediately delighted.

"That's great! If there's a God King, the God King's offspring will definitely be stronger than the Main God's offspring! Whether we can get a top-tier mount depends on this time!"

Teammates: ……

"Good teammate, we're still considering whether we can beat a Lower God, and you've already started eyeing the God King's baby……"

Li Li said softly.

Xiao Feng laughed: "Ambition should be a bit bigger, right? Getting a 9th-stage mount would give us face when we go to the Myriad Heavens Battlefield!"

"Whoa, 9th stage? You're……"

Everyone was speechless.

They even eyed a 2nd-stage mount with envy—that kind of mount can reach the Lower God realm, not only can it fly, but it can also occasionally help in battle!

But in Xiao Feng's eyes, a 2nd-stage mount seemed like trash……

"Haha, I'm just saying, the Yuan Su Shen Yu probably doesn't have any 9th-stage spirit beasts to catch. Earlier I heard from the Storm Main God that adult 9th-stage spirit beasts can easily massacre God Kings; even if we encountered one, my current strength isn't enough." Xiao Feng said.

Although he said that, the teammates all felt he wasn't joking; maybe one day he'll actually pick up a 9th-stage spirit beast egg!

After about 20 minutes, both sides met at the edge of the continent.

Xiao Feng spotted a white large ship flying through the air from afar, approaching him with decent speed.

This ship isn't much different from a sea vessel, except it lacks the anchor and oar structure; its flight power mainly comes from a magic array on the rear side of the hull.

The ship is about 15 meters long, and while it can actually hold more than ten people, some onboard facilities—such as sofas, small cultivation rooms, etc. —can accommodate at most ten people simultaneously.

Since Xiao Feng, Li Li, and the others are teammates, they can board directly without an invitation.

Stepping onto the ship's deck, he felt his feet sink slightly, immediately sensing a pull from gravity, steady and stable, not drifting everywhere.

"Old Xiao, this ship is all right, hehe……"

Li Li, wanting to show off, led him around the ship to list its various advantages.

"Nowadays, hardly any players can afford this kind of ship; we'd only heard about it before, but thought we wouldn't use it, so we didn't buy. Now that we've bought it, we realize its cost-performance is really good!" Li Li said.

Xiao Feng checked the flying ship's specs and was also quite satisfied.

Traveling with this kind of transport differs quite a bit from riding a mount.

First is the comfort issue!

Riding a mount isn't too uncomfortable, but the seat size is limited, not

cannot move around freely.

But on a ship it's different: you can sit or lie as you like, and you can play chess, chat, and snack with friends in the cabin, completely unaffected.

Furthermore, when energy is sufficient, the flying ship's speed is also very fast, nearly ten times faster than a 1st-stage mount!

The flying ship also comes with a protective shield function; when under attack or encountering a hazardous environment, it can provide protection.

For such a 10-person capacity, the highest-quality "advanced flying ship" can at most withstand a full-force strike from a level 350 character without damage, and thanks to its speed advantage, it can quickly escape.

If it's a mid-tier flying ship with a speed of 8000 km/h, it can only block attacks from a level 300 character.

The most ordinary type, with a speed of 5000 km/h, has no protective shield.

Of course, traveling by flying ship also has some aspects inferior to riding a mount.

For example, maneuverability and combat capability, etc.

Such devices generally can only travel in straight lines; if you want to zigzag, riding a mount is definitely better.

Moreover, on the ship you're subject to casting restrictions; using big skills would disrupt the hull's balance, so for safety, casting is generally not allowed. On a mount's back, however, you can fight however you like.

Each has its own advantages; the choice mainly depends on the nature of the journey.

After boarding the flying ship, Xiao Feng went into the cockpit and took a look at the map.

This map is a complete map of the Elemental Sea, very large, marking all important regions of the Yuan Su Shen Yu.

The map shows the outlines of the 24 Divine Nations, but this is only a small part of the Yuan Su Shen Yu; much more lies in the vast, boundless Elemental Sea.

The Elemental Sea has countless islands; forces like Wind Spirit Island are actually only second- or third-rate, not very strong.

Looking at the map's description, some powerful island forces, such as "Blood Calamity Island," "Demon Mountain Island," "Great Vast Sea Island," etc., all have a titled god stationed there; the island's residents number in the tens to millions, among whom there are over fifty Upper God members, making them far stronger than Wind Spirit Island.

However, these forces are usually far from the major Divine Nations; if you want to make a trip there, you'd need at least half a year.

According to the map's information, forces like "Blood Calamity Island" and "Demon Mountain Island" can be joined or challenged by players.

Xiao Feng doesn't know what joining would entail, but if challenging, it would be of a warlike nature, meaning "occupation"!

However, the map's level is relatively low; according to the "Civilization Index" recording method, it's probably just at the "Mountain River" tier, and occupying it yields only 5 faction points and personal contribution.

The map on the flying ship isn't omnipotent either; the Elemental Sea has countless islands, and a large portion only marks geographic locations without providing names or force details.

Obviously the system also doesn't want players to fully master the Elemental Sea's force information, which reduces the unknown aspect of exploration and affects the game experience.

After looking at the map, Xiao Feng really wanted to copy it into his own system.

But the system lacks this function; he can only rely on memory to memorize it, or take the ship every time he goes out.

"The course has already been set; we'll arrive in about 116 hours, which is still quite long."

Zhang Fan, operating the ship's "rudder," said.

"Steering" actually just means setting a destination; the flying ship will navigate there on its own, very convenient.

Xiao Feng nodded and said: "Hmm, it's long, but if we could find a top-tier mount, it would be worth it."

After all, the Yuan Su Shen Yu has a tenfold time advantage, so this time consumption is still bearable.

"Along the way there's nothing else to do; we can cultivate a bit or research skills." Xing Yun Miao said.

A continuous journey of nearly five days would be deadly boring if we didn't do something.

Although everyone is present and we can chat, it's also impossible to spend all five days just chatting.

Speaking of that, Xiao Feng remembered he still had many books in his backpack.

Then he casually took out several dozen books and placed them on the table, saying to everyone: "I recently rummaged through some historical background data about game worlds from the Primeval Relics; if you're interested, you can take a look."

"Wow, so many books!" Dun Dun let out a strange cry upon seeing the piles of books.

"What, did all these books stir the junior sister's love of learning?" Xiao Feng laughed.

"How could that be!"

Dun Dun's little head shook like a rattle drum, he retreated three steps, and said disgustedly: "I refuse to study! From elementary school to university, I spent a full 12 years just reading; having finally gotten into university, I want to play every day and look at handsome guys every day!"

"But these books record the Primeval Lost… my Heavenly Dao Inheritance is related to this." Xiao Feng said in a tempting voice.

Dun Dun blinked and said: "That powerful? If I finish reading the books, can I obtain the Perfect God King Artifact?"

"Cannot." Xiao Feng shook his head.

"Then forget it!" Dun Dun retreated again.

Everyone couldn't help but smile.

Mang Mei stepped forward, casually picked up a book, and began reading in silence.

Her interests aren't that broad, but she is still quite interested in acquiring knowledge.

After putting the books down, Xiao Feng said to everyone: "I need to make a trip to Zhu Shen Da Lu; you go ahead on your journey, and if I'm not on the ship when you return, you should chase after me by riding the wind. Anyway, I'm fast, so I don't worry about getting left behind."
