Chapter 123: Flying-type Magic Treasure (1/2)

“Scarlet Yang City is at least 500,000 li away from Demon Soul Valley. That is quite the distance. How should we get there?” a middle-aged cultivator asked (1 li = 0.5 km).

“There is no need to worry about that. I have a flying-type magic treasure.” After saying that, the woman in black waved her hand and the sky suddenly turned dark. A ship-like flying magic treasure appeared in the middle of the sky. It was somewhat similar to the Shadowless Skysoar Earthslip Shuttle. However, it was not as sleek.

The flying-type magic treasure was 50 zhang long and 5 zhang wide. Who knows what materials were used in its construction, but its surface glowed with a black lustre. One glance was all it took to tell them that it was tens of times tougher than high-quality steel (1 zhang = 3.333 m).

The most shocking part, however, was the aura radiating off the magic treasure.

“This is a Prized artefact!” After merely sensing it for a moment, Chen Feng was able to determine the artefact tier of the magic treasure.

“Another Prized artefact? Not to mention, this is a flying-type Prized artefact. Just what background does this woman has? Could she be the daughter of an immortal dao sect’s Sect Master? Or, the Little Miss of great clan?” Ye Ziming was shocked as well. While Chen Feng’s group was shocked, the rest of the cultivators were utterly astounded. For them, Prized artefacts were rare existences. Today, they had seen two Prized artefacts successively within a short period. Additionally, those two Prized artefacts had come from the same person. Thus, their eyes turned fiery once more.

“All right. If you have anything else to say, do so on our way there. Now, hurry up and board my Sky Soaring Warship,” said the woman in black with a serious tone, which caused powerful soundwaves to spread out. Immediately, the cultivators fell silent. Then, in an orderly manner, they entered the warship.

To their surprise, the space within the warship was very large. Surprisingly, its interior had its own inner dimensions. Glancing around, Chen Feng judged that the size of its interior was definitely larger than its exterior. For it, accommodating over 100 cultivators was nothing worth mentioning.

Prized artefacts can create their own inner dimensions. This is the real deal. Space wise, this flying-type magic treasure is far superior compared to my Overwhelming Astral Sword. I wonder, though, how strong is its offensive capabilities? Chen Feng pondered silently.

As the interior was large enough, the cultivators were able to spread out to stay at various spots. Some closed their eyes to rest, some sat down and began meditating while some looked around.

The woman in black, escorted by a group of cultivators, walked over.

“Fellow cultivators, please have a good rest. In three days, we will reach Demon Soul Valley. Also, for the sake of convenience, I have decided to split you all up into 12 teams. Ten cultivators per team. You will be taking turns to protect my safety. This will also make it easier to dispatch you all. You may form the teams by yourselves,” said the woman in black coolly.

“Right, miss. How should we address you? Surely, we cannot keep calling you employer?” a young cultivator suddenly asked with a dissolute smile. His gaze towards the woman in black was that of naked desire.

“This young man is no ordinary character. He should have already condensed out his Soulflame. Additionally, I can sense a heretical aura coming off him.” Chen Feng sent a secret vocal transmission to Ye Ziming and Lu Ta.

“I know this fellow. Self-proclaimed as Elegant Gentleman, he is sinister, perverted and insidious. Many female cultivators have been ruined by him. Additionally, he is not in need of medicinal pills. It seems he has his sights set on our employer,” replied Ye Ziming with a chuckle.

“If that is the case, this fellow is in for a bad time. I think he might not even know what hit him when he dies in the end.” Chen Feng was unable to stop the grin from appearing on his face.

Forget the woman in black, even her four bodyguards could easily kill him off.

“You all may address me as Mo Ji,” said the woman in black coolly.

“Mo Ji, a good name. A truly good name.” Elegant Gentleman smirked while holding a folded fan in his hand.

Mo Ji did not say anything else. She did not even look at Elegant Gentleman before turning and leave.

“Elegant Gentleman, if you don’t want to die, you would do well to be honest. If not, I don’t mind killing you off.” One of the handsome, young cultivators following Mo Ji pointed at Elegant Gentleman and sneered.

“And who are you?” Elegant Gentleman’s eyes glinted with ferocity and he gripped his fan tightly. It appeared as though he would start a fight just because of those words.

“Mo Xigui,” replied the handsome youngster with a calm voice.

“What? You are the Gale Sword, Mo Xigui?!” Elegant Gentleman exclaimed, a look of shock on his face.

“It’s Mo Xigui! It really is Mo Xigui! To think that he would appear here.”

“I have heard of him before. He is a very strong character whose name has appeared on the ‘Rookie Cultivators Ranking List’. It is said that, right after breaking through to the Concealed stage, he singlehandedly killed off five level 2 Concealed stage cultivators.”

“This news of yours is outdated. Just recently, there was this Black Mountain Bandits throwing their weight around. They had a total of over 500 bandits in their group and over 20 Concealed stage cultivators. Mo Xigui singlehandedly killed them all!”

“Tsk tsk! This time, Elegant Gentleman is in for a bad time.”

“Serves him right! A scum like him deserves death. Hell, death is too good for him.”

“What? Do you still want to start a fight?” Mo Xigui said calmly as he regarded Elegant Gentleman.

The expression on Elegant Gentleman’s face flickered a few times before finally turning into a smile. He said, “He he! We are all working on the same task right now. There is no need to start an internal dispute.”

Elegant Gentleman chose to take a step back against Mo Xigui. Truth be told, he was not fearful of Mo Xigui. What had him concerned was Mo Xigui’s sect, Sword Hall. The cultivators from Sword Hall were not existences to be easily provoked. Additionally, Mo Xigui was something of a genius for Sword Hall. Should Elegant Gentleman kill off Mo Xigui, Sword Hall would never let it slide. Then, even if he were to flee to the ends of the earth, he would still be incapable of shaking off the murderous pursuit of Sword Hall.
