Chapter 4236: Yellow-class Immortal Ship

Wang Ruyan and Wang Changsheng stood in an open area. They had been drawn by the commotion of a breaking formation and arrived just in time to see an Outer Realm Demon possess Qian Jinzi.

A bright black light burst forth, breaking free from the restraints of blue ethereal glow.

Wang Ruyan flicked her finger, and a slender black thread shot out—a thread of law. The black thread pierced through the black light, drawing it back to Wang Ruyan.

"Soul law!" The black light's voice trembled.

Wang Ruyan grasped the black light in her palm and performed a soul search.

Wang Changsheng's right fist surged with black light. He punched the void behind him, and a piercing shriek rang out as another black light appeared and instantly dispersed. Since they had mastered the soul law, any Outer Realm Demon attempting to ambush them was simply courting death.

"This is an Outer Realm Demon at the Golden Immortal stage," Wang Ruyan said. "It escaped from a forbidden area."

"Escaped from a forbidden area? Where?" Wang Changsheng asked, curious.

"It doesn't know the exact location," Wang Ruyan replied. "It only knows there were many Corpse Refinements and specters there. If it hadn't escaped quickly, it would have been destroyed."

All things have a natural counter, and Outer Realm Demons also had their bane.

"Corpse Refinements? Specters?" Wang Changsheng paused slightly. He had no interest in such things. His gaze swept over to the storage bracelet on the humanoid skeleton.

A black halo bloomed from Wang Changsheng's palm, sweeping over the humanoid skeleton, which showed no unusual reaction. He flicked two fingers, and a blue light shot out, striking the skeleton's bony hand. The storage bracelet clattered to the ground. With a single grab, the storage bracelet flew into his hand.

Wang Changsheng gently flicked his wrist, and a golden ethereal glow swept past. A large pile of items appeared on the ground: immortal essence stones, refining materials, chaotic beast cores, immortal wood, and other various materials.

"An immortal ship!" Wang Changsheng exclaimed, his gaze falling upon a miniature azure dragon boat.

Immortal ships came in many forms, and this miniature dragon boat did not appear to be an offensive immortal artifact. Wang Changsheng picked up the miniature dragon boat and infused it with immortal essence. The boat immediately radiated brilliant azure light, then its size rapidly expanded, and a ten-foot-wide opening appeared on its underside.

Wang Changsheng flew into the opening and found himself in a vast space with mountains, water, and numerous buildings. The area of this space far exceeded that of Qinglian Island. He was certain it was an immortal ship, though he didn't know its grade.

Wang Changsheng soared down to the entrance of a massive, azure-glowing tower. He looked up and saw the characters "Azure Dragon" inscribed on the plaque above the entrance. He strode in, intending to investigate.

Outside the azure dragon boat, Wang Ruyan was tallying the possessions. Aside from the immortal ship, there were no high-grade immortal artifacts, but there were some rare materials for crafting talismans, suitable for making immortal talismans. She carefully examined the contents of each jade slip, hoping to identify the owner. However, she found no information about the person's identity or origin. The jade slips contained complex information, including insights on artifact refining, elixir concoction, and hunting chaotic beasts, indicating involvement with multiple factions. This person was definitely a treasure seeker, but unfortunately, they hadn't managed to leave this place alive.

A moment later, Wang Changsheng flew out from the belly of the azure dragon boat, his face alight with joy. "This is a Yellow-grade immortal ship, equipped with five high-grade immortal-slaying cannons," Wang Changsheng said excitedly.

"A Yellow-grade immortal ship!" Wang Ruyan exclaimed, a mix of surprise and delight on her face. Then, as something occurred to her, she asked with a hint of confusion, "If she acquired a Yellow-grade immortal ship, why didn't she use it?"

"Most likely, she obtained it during her treasure hunt and hadn't had time to refine it before being pursued by enemies, suffering severe injuries, and succumbing to them," Wang Changsheng analyzed.

Wang Ruyan pulled back a piece of clothing and found numerous cracks in the skeleton's breastbone, with the bones appearing black. It seemed the person had been poisoned by a strange toxin.

Having acquired a Yellow-grade immortal ship, Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan were in excellent spirits.

"Let's use the Yellow-grade immortal ship for travel!" Wang Ruyan suggested. "It will be much more efficient and save us travel time."

Wang Changsheng nodded, sat down cross-legged, and began refining the Azure Dragon. Wang Ruyan collected the scattered treasures from the ground and stood guard for Wang Changsheng.

A vast, boundless black mountain range, with towering peaks and dense forests.

At the foot of a steep, sky-reaching peak, there was a massive cave. A deafening roar emanated from within, shaking the ground. After a while, the roaring subsided, and Chen Yueying and Lan Fukong emerged from the cave, their faces wreathed in smiles.

They had unexpectedly discovered the secluded cave of a deceased treasure seeker and acquired a significant amount of wealth, including some Chaotic Origin Stones and over a dozen seven-colored crystal cores, making a substantial profit.

"Madam Chen, we truly benefited from your fortune this time," Lan Fukong said with a broad smile. Wang Qiulin had performed a divination for Chen Yueying, and the hexagram indicated that Chen Yueying had a great opportunity. By acting together with Chen Yueying, he too could obtain many good things.

"It's a pity there were no immortal elixirs or high-grade immortal artifacts to help break through to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage," Chen Yueying said with a note of regret.

"One must learn to be content," Lan Fukong said with a laugh. "It's already quite good that we've managed to acquire so many valuable items."

Chen Yueying nodded and took out a yellow animal hide—a map with certain locations marked by text. "According to the map, there might be something good here. Should we investigate?" Chen Yueying asked, pointing to a specific spot.

"Since there's a clue, why not go?" Lan Fukong replied. "We'll be careful. If we encounter any elites, we'll retreat. Even if we can't defeat them, we can surely escape!" He hoped to obtain immortal elixirs that would help him break through to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage. If he missed this opportunity, he might not be around when the restrictions on the Myriad Immortals Continent entered another period of weakness.

Chen Yueying nodded. Since entering the Myriad Immortals Continent, they had indeed rarely encountered other Golden Immortals. On the few occasions they did meet Golden Immortal cultivators, those individuals wore mid-grade Chaotic Armor, and enemy attacks failed to breach it. They had exchanged their accumulated merit points with the Wang family for these armors.

Chen Yueying put away the map, and she and Lan Fukong departed from the area.

***

In a vast, boundless azure bamboo forest, deafening roars and explosive sounds echoed from its depths.

A golden light shot out from deep within the bamboo forest. Before it had flown far, a loud male voice rang out: "Friend, you'd best stay! Join your companion and die together, like a pair of lovebirds sharing a tragic fate!"

The golden light slowed, revealing a handsome young man in golden robes. His face was pale, his right arm was gone, and his aura was weak.

"Your companion is already dead. You might as well join her on the journey," a gentle male voice said.

The golden-robed youth's eyes became vacant, and his expression grew dazed. With a flash of azure light, a massive, glowing azure tower materialized. It emitted a stream of azure ethereal glow that enveloped the golden-robed youth, drawing him into the tower.

Ni Tianlong and Gongsun Yang flew over, both entering the massive tower. A moment later, they flew out of the tower, their expressions filled with excitement.

"The secluded cave of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal! Our great opportunity has arrived!" Gongsun Yang exclaimed excitedly. He formed a hand seal, and the massive tower rapidly shrank, disappearing into his sleeve.

"Let's go immediately. I hope we can obtain the Grand Unity Golden Immortal's legacy," Ni Tianlong said. The two then departed from the area.
