Chapter 1914: Mu Qingtong's Situation

He Pingsheng landed on the sixth-tier divine vessel that Xin Baobao had deployed.

His gaze swept across, and everything on the ship was laid bare before him.

On the gunwales of the great ship, one hundred and eight mid-grade divine gold slots were engraved in intaglio, and at the very top there were five even larger slots.

These were all used for embedding divine gold.

Thus, when this flying vessel flew, it could consume either Xin Baobao's divine power or the energy within the divine gold.

In this way, there was no need to worry about Xin Baobao's divine power running insufficient.

"How is it?" Xin Baobao looked at He Pingsheng with a smug air.

He Pingsheng did not answer: "This is for you..."

He handed Xin Baobao a ring; inside the ring were ten thousand pieces of mid-grade divine gold, and he said: "Take it, first install the divine gold the ship needs!"

"Aye!"

Having received the divine gold, Xin Baobao filled all one hundred and eight slots in the very first moment.

A flash of light passed over the divine vessel.

He Pingsheng asked: "What are these five large slots for?"

Xin Baobao said: "These five are not for providing propulsion to the flying vessel, but for deploying the formation!"

"Formation?" He Pingsheng said: "There's still a formation on this ship?"

"Yes!" Xin Baobao smiled faintly: "You certainly wouldn't guess, this ship not only has a formation, but it's the kind that combines offense and defense!"

"It takes high-grade divine gold to deploy!"

"However, I currently have no high-grade divine gold!"

"Master, do you have any high-grade physical divine gold in your possession?"

He Pingsheng shook his head: "This, I truly do not have!"

"But your Master Uncle Wang does!"

Last time Wang Dun touched a God King Realm corpse underground and obtained a ring containing many treasures; He Pingsheng's divine ability 【Heaven-Opening Divine Lotus】 was taken from it, and of course there was divine gold as well.

Not only mid-grade, but quite a lot of high-grade too.

He Pingsheng did not want these divine golds; they were all swept up by Wang Dun in one go.

Before long, Wang Dun was invited onto this new great ship.

"Easy!" Wang Dun waved a hand, produced several dozen pieces of high-grade divine gold and gave them to Xin Baobao, saying: "Let me see, how is your formation?"

Xin Baobao nodded, and with a few clicks slotted the high-grade divine gold into the grooves.

Then, the sixth-tier divine vessel began to tremble violently.

The next moment, a golden light membrane emerged outside the divine vessel.

"A fourth-tier defensive formation..." Wang Dun's eyes narrowed slightly: "Good fellow, the formation on this is actually a supreme-grade formation!"

"Even an ordinary God Monarch Realm cultivator couldn't hope to break it!"

"Heh..." Wang Dun's eyes slowly brightened, then he clapped his hands: "Good, good, good... With this, we can drive this battleship to the God Monarch Side on the return trip, and not fear those fellows!"

"There's a chance to fight for it!"

"Rumble—"

Just as Wang Dun was speaking, the second formation was also deployed.

This formation was deployed inside the defensive formation; it was a Spirit-Sealing Formation.

Also fourth-tier.

"This is good..." He Pingsheng smiled: "A Spirit-Sealing Formation and a defensive formation placed together are enough!"

"Actually there's still more!" Xin Baobao said: "It's a pity I haven't fully refined it; if it were fully refined, the outermost layer could also deploy a 【Concealment Formation】, and the flying vessel would be in a stealth state while flying at high speed!"

"Others would find it hard to discover!"

Wang Dun gave a thumbs-up: "This treasure is truly heaven-defying, worthy of being sixth-tier!"

"Alright!"

"Now, everyone come here, advance quickly!" He Pingsheng shouted down to Han Houzhi.

Han Houzhi and Tai Zhen also boarded this new divine vessel.

Rumble—

The divine vessel shook violently a few times, then sped forward.

This speed was more than ten times faster than Han Houzhi's previous third-tier divine vessel.

Originally it would take several decades to reach the terminus at the God Monarch Side; now it would take only a few years.

Whoosh—

The divine vessel's speed grew faster and faster!

In the span of a few breaths it swept past a region.

Wang Dun's mood instantly became carefree: "Before, I was still worried about how we could enter the God Monarch Side!"

"The God Monarch Side has the 【Nine Apertures Exquisite】, not going would be a real pity, but if we went the risk seemed truly too high!"

"Now it's good, with this fourth-tier defensive formation outside the divine vessel, hahaha... ordinary God Monarch Realm cultivators simply cannot break it!"

"And when fleeing, this great ship's speed is extremely fast; ordinary God Monarch Realm cultivators might not be able to catch up either!"

"Unless they cultivated Space Dao Laws!"

He Pingsheng also nodded.

Indeed so.

The significance of this sixth-tier divine vessel was simply too great.

"Fellow Daoist Hou……"

"How are your injuries?"

At the summit of a certain mountain peak on the Divine Control side of the Ancient Heaven Ruins, Mu Qingtong wiped away the fresh blood at the corner of her mouth, then glanced at the man beside her and asked with concern.

"It's nothing!" Hou Shicheng shook his head and said, "For us Divine Men, it's merely a minor flesh wound!"

"I'll be fine after swallowing a few pills!"

"Junior Brother, what about you?" Hou Shicheng looked at the other man beside him.

That was Hou Shicheng's fellow disciple from the same sect, also a clansman, named Hou Shichuan.

This Hou Shichuan had a pointed mouth and monkey cheeks, a wretched appearance, but his cultivation could not be underestimated; he had already reached the peak twelfth layer of the Divine Control Realm.

"I'm also fine……" Hou Shichuan chuckled twice and said, "Although we didn't obtain that 【Four Gates of Hell】 this time, we at least got news of the Four Gates of Hell!"

"Three companions died, but it was worth it!"

As these words left his mouth, Mu Qingtong beside him instantly turned pale, her body trembling twice.

Before she entered the Ancient Heaven Ruins this time, she had already formed a team.

Six people in total; besides Hou Shicheng and Hou Shichuan, there were three other companions, all at the peak of the Divine Control Realm.

However, in a previous fierce battle, three companions died.

Now only the three of them were still alive.

"Mu Qingtong!" Speaking of this, Hou Shichuan's gaze fell on Mu Qingtong, and he said somewhat lecherously, "My big brother was injured because he saved you!"

"If it weren't for my big brother, you would have already died under someone else's blade just now; you can't deny that, can you?"

Mu Qingtong took a deep breath and said, "Yes…… indeed it is. Many thanks, Fellow Daoist Hou!"

"Hehehe……" Hou Shichuan gave two dry laughs and said, "What's this? You're just going to thank with words?"

"Mu Qingtong, a wise man doesn't speak in riddles!"

"My senior brother has hinted openly and secretly to you many times……"

"Don't you understand his feelings yet?"

"I think you should just agree to my senior brother and become his Dao Companion — what harm would it do?"

A flash of disgust flickered in Mu Qingtong's eyes; she took a deep breath and said, "This kind of thing cannot be forced!"

"Fairy Qingtong!" Beside her, Hou Shicheng also looked at Mu Qingtong with an expectant face and said, "My feelings — do you understand them?"

"I truly admire Fairy deeply!"

"Fairy has no Dao Companion; my pursuit of Fairy is only proper!"

"Why does Fairy look down on me, Hou?"

"As long as Fairy agrees, Hou can do anything for Fairy!"
