Mo Yuxuan's spiritual ship was half the size of Quncui Pavilion, and most of it was cargo, leaving only twenty rooms for the ship's passengers.
This is secondary. The most important thing is that Mo Yuxuanling's ship has three Jindan real people pressing the ship, and the rest are all shipwrights in the foundation building stage and Qi refining stage.
Quncui Pavilion has five Danjie stewards and a Nascent Soul Lord who is stationed at the bottom of the cabin and only comes out in times of crisis.
The safety factor is relatively high, and the shipping fee is twice as high as other spiritual ships, and most of the people who ride on their spiritual ships are Jindan Zhenren.
Although the fare of the Mo Yuxuan Spirit Ship is cheap, most Jindan Masters are people who are worth a few hundred yuan of mid-grade spirit stones, so they naturally choose the safer Quncui Pavilion Spirit Ship.
The people riding Mo Yuxuan's spirit ship were basically foundation-building monks who were seeking advantage.
So when Zhuzhu, the golden elixir master, bought a ticket to board the ship, Mo Yuxuan directly waived her fare, so that when the spiritual ship was in danger, Zhuzhu could help them.
In fact, this place is already in the deep sea area, and the journey from now on will only become more and more dangerous.
Therefore, Zhuzhu and Chen Xuejiao did not have time to practice this time. When they had nothing to do, Zhuzhu studied the "Tian Fu Lu" and Jiaojiao studied the formations.
In the blink of an eye, Mo Yuxuan's spirit ship had left Butterfly Island and flown eastward for more than a month.
Although there were two waves of monster attacks during this period, Mo Yuxuan's spirit ship was still relatively strong. In addition, the monsters were not of a high level. The three golden elixir managers did not ask Zhuzhu for help and beat the monsters away on their own. .
If everything goes well, in three days they will reach the next island, which is twice as big as Butterfly Island - Sulfur Silver Island.
Because this island is rich in sulfur silver ore, one of the main materials used to refine storage rings and mustard seed spaces, the entire island is named after this.
After more than a month of worry, they were about to arrive at the next island. This time Mo Yuxuan would stay on Sulfur Silver Island for ten days, so they could relax and rest.
Just when everyone was about to breathe a sigh of relief, large dark clouds suddenly appeared in the sky. The dark clouds overlapped and covered the entire sky, and the sky gradually became dark.
Then lightning and thunder began, and then violent storms poured down, and the sea below began to boil. The surging waves were like hills, making a huge roar and beating the sea with all their strength.
Those waves surged higher and higher, and the surging waves even hit the bottom of the cabin of the spiritual ship in the sky, causing the spiritual ship that was moving forward smoothly to begin to shake violently.
Zhuzhu in the room immediately used the weight pendant to firmly fix his body on the floor, and did not follow the spirit ship to sway left and right.
But now that her consciousness was sharp, she still heard a shrill scream, but the scream soon disappeared amid the lightning, thunder, and roar of the wind. It should be that a boatman or a boat passenger suddenly encountered such bad weather on the deck, and... Before he could hide in the cabin, he was thrown out by the bumpy spirit ship.
In this kind of weather, and in the deep sea area, once you fall into the sea, you will probably not survive.
Zhuzhu had actually expected such extremely bad weather, so she was mentally prepared and stayed quietly in the room reading.
But not long after, she still heard Jiaojiao's breathing coming from next door, which sounded a little rapid, as if she was very uncomfortable.
Zhuzhu ignored the inquiry and stumbled to the door of Jiaojiao's room on the bumpy spiritual boat and broke in directly.
I happened to see Jiaojiao with a pale face and bent over, wanting to vomit but unable to do so.
Is this seasick?
Zhuzhu breathed a sigh of relief, but still felt uneasy and took out a sixth-grade Qingshen Pill for her to take.
Chen Xuejiao was really uncomfortable. However, she had not eaten anything except one Bigu Pill a day recently, so naturally she could not vomit anything.
Seeing the pill handed over by Zhu Zhu, Chen Xuejiao took it directly and drank it. After a while, she no longer felt so dizzy, nauseated and nauseated.
Seeing that she was getting better, Zhuzhu breathed a sigh of relief.
But she still frowned, looking out the window at the thickening clouds and the rough waves on the sea. She always felt that this was not just bad weather, but something was brewing between heaven and earth!
"Zhuzhu, is there any danger outside?"
Chen Xuejiao was also a little worried. She had also heard the screams outside just now, but her stomach was churning at the time and she had no time to check.
"I don't know either." Her consciousness couldn't penetrate those dark clouds, so she couldn't see the situation ahead at all. Zhuzhu thought about it for a while, but finally felt a little worried, "I'll go out and take a look. Just wait for me in the room." "
Even if she can't maintain her figure and falls out, she can still fly with her sword. If she flies back to the spirit ship, it would be a bit dangerous for Jiaojiao to go out, so Zhuzhu doesn't want her to follow him into danger.
Chen Xuejiao: ...Why does it feel like she is giving instructions to a child? It inexplicably makes her feel like she is a generation younger than Zhu Zhu.
As soon as Zhuzhu stepped out of the cabin, a strong sea breeze mixed with heavy rain hit her.
She quickly used her spiritual power to create a spiritual shield and wrapped herself in it. As soon as she walked onto the deck, she saw the three stewards Mo Yuxuan looking forward with frightened faces.
When Zhuzhu saw their expressions, her heart skipped a beat. Something that could scare three Jindan Masters at the same time was probably very serious.
"Did the three fellow Taoists discover something?"
These people who often traveled at sea were far more experienced than her monks who had never been to sea twice. Zhuzhu stepped forward and asked proactively.
The three stewards looked back and saw Zhuzhu, hesitated for a moment, and decided to tell the truth. If they didn't tell the truth at this time, they would offend Zhuzhu, and if she encountered danger later, she might not lend a helping hand again.
However, they were all a little desperate at the moment, and they didn't think they could escape by telling her, but having someone to share the pressure with them could also make their fear and despair less severe.
"We are afraid that we have mistakenly entered the area where high-level spiritual beasts are undergoing tribulation. At this moment, the lightning, thunder, violent storm and rain are just appetizers before the thunder tribulation comes. If the thunder tribulation of spirit beasts comes, I am afraid that both our people and the boat will be chopped into pieces. "
Zhuzhu: ...If that's the case, why don't you think of a way quickly and stand here and watch the thunder calamity come down and be hacked to death?
"Why not control the spirit ship to leave the tribulation area?"
Zhuzhu still asked her doubts.
The three stewards shook their heads in unison: "It's too difficult to escape after we've already come in. Moreover, the spirit beast that is going through the tribulation finds someone helping it share some of the thunder tribulation. I'm afraid it won't want to let us escape."
"So you're just waiting to die?" Zhuzhu was speechless. If she had known that Mo Yuxuan's spirit boat was such a scam, she might as well have bought her own spirit boat and traveled with Jiaojiao.
"Could Fellow Daoist Ni have something to do?" The three stewards looked at Zhuzhu, their tone of voice a little bad.
After all, a disaster is imminent, and it would be strange for anyone to have a good temper.
"I'm not the steward of the spirit ship."
If she had a lot of experience in going to sea, she might have discovered something was wrong before the spirit ship entered the spirit beast tribulation zone.
Even if something is not discovered in advance and they enter the Thunder Tribulation Area, they will still find a way to control the spirit ship and swim out desperately. Even if they use their last bit of spiritual power, they will not sigh and frown here!
Before they could say anything else, Zhuzhu turned around and walked into the cabin. She planned to fly out of the robbery area with Jiaojiao and her sword. Anyway, she wouldn't just wait here to die.
"Fellow Daoist Ni, wait a minute!" The only steward with the Golden Elixir Dzogchen cultivation level hurriedly stopped Zhuzhu, his tone softened a lot, "I'm sorry, the three of us have never encountered this kind of situation after going to sea for decades. We passed, so we were a little at a loss for a while, we still need Fellow Daoist Ni to watch and help each other break through the disaster area."
"What are you going to do?" Zhuzhu is not a cold-blooded person who doesn't know what to do.
After all, there are dozens of boatmen and dozens of foundation-building boat passengers on the ship.
She could take Jiaojiao and pat her butt and walk away, and those people would probably be in trouble.
If there was a chance to save them, she would naturally be willing to help, but in the end she was unable to do anything, so she could only abandon the ship and escape with Jiaojiao.
After all, she is not a saint and cannot sacrifice herself for others.
"Our Mo Yuxuan spirit ship also reserves a thousand high-grade spiritual stones. This is a backup energy source that can only be used when the spirit ship is in the most critical moment. With high-grade spiritual stones as energy source, our four Jindan masters can fly with swords and walk on the ship. With the spirit ship towed in front, there should be two levels of chances of escaping."
Seeing that the dark clouds in the sky are getting thicker and thicker, Manager Mo Yuxuan is not hiding it. Although one thousand high-grade spiritual stones is a huge expense, even they can only earn at most 500 high-grade stones from this trip, but In the face of life and death, everything is just a cloud.
Life is gone, so there is no use in asking for these external possessions.
"Okay, please ask the stewards to prepare quickly." Even if there was only a two-level chance of escaping successfully, Zhuzhu would still try.
After the three stewards figured it out, the work efficiency was very fast. Dozens of boatmen squatted at the bottom of the cabin and kept putting high-grade spiritual stones into various hubs.
In front of the spirit ship, four Jindan masters were stepping on flying swords in the stormy waves, and each of them was carrying an iron chain as thick as a bowl.
Four people carried iron chains and struggled to pull the spirit boat away from the dark clouds.
The bottom of the iron chain is connected to various places such as the deck and cabin, and there is pure high-grade spiritual stone as energy source.
Against the violent storm, the spirit ship gradually moved away from the lightning and thunder area.
Those foundation-building monks could only hide in the cabin and look at the Jindan master who was working as a tracker to pull the boat in front of them.
Some people were so moved that they burst into tears. They felt that in the face of the disaster, the four Jindan masters did not abandon the ship and leave. It was really touching.
Some people only despised the four Jindan Daoist beings as useless. The speed of pulling the boat was too slow, preventing them from escaping early.
Others kept praying silently in their hearts.
Jiaojiao also saw this scene through the window, and immediately regretted that she had not reached the golden elixir realm sooner, otherwise she could have fought side by side with Zhuzhu.
The lightning wrapped around her wrist sensed the master's thoughts and immediately crawled to her palm: "Master, I can help Sister Zhuzhu."
Although it had a big fight with Zhuzhu when they first met, without her, it would not have known and formed a bond with its owner, and she was also his owner's best friend. If something happened, the owner would definitely be sad.
At this time, the lives of more than a hundred people were at stake. Chen Xuejiao nodded in agreement without caring about the lightning. If she hadn't been unable to fly with a sword, she would have really wanted to do it herself.
Lightning immediately rushed out of the cabin and grew dozens of times in size. Hard scale wings quickly grew from its back. It picked up an iron chain from the deck with its mouth, and then drove the iron chain to fly to Zhuzhu's side.
When several other Jindan masters saw the transformed Thunder Snake, they were so frightened that they almost dropped the chains in their hands and ran for their lives.
"Don't panic, it's my friend's demon pet, and it's here to help us." Zhuzhu quickly explained.
The other three Jindan Daoists breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing the help of the seventh-level ancient beast, they became more confident in escaping from the Thunder Tribulation Zone.
Not to mention, although Lightning is small in stature, his strength is not small, and he is even stronger than the three golden elixir masters combined.
With its help, the speed of towing the spirit ship doubled, and they were getting further and further away from the thunder disaster area.
Seeing that they were about to escape from the tribulation zone and victory was in sight, just when everyone breathed a sigh of relief, the spirit beast preparing to overcome the tribulation discovered their intention.
Unexpectedly, at the critical moment of overcoming the tribulation, he swam in their direction, and at the same time brought the entire dark cloud to move over with him.
The spirit ship was once again wrapped in the robbery area.
"Damn it!"
Zhuzhu and Lingning cursed together and gritted their molars. There were people more shameless than them.
Mo Yuxuan's three golden elixir stewards were already a little desperate: "How can we escape? There is no escape at all!"
Zhuzhu hesitated for a moment, and finally said firmly: "You hold the boat and go first, I will stop it."
"Fellow Daoist Ni, that is the eighth-level peak spiritual beast that is about to enter the ninth level."
The three golden elixir stewards were very moved by Zhuzhu's spirit of self-sacrifice and feared that she would really fight against the tribulation beast, so they quickly reminded her.
The eighth-level peak spiritual beast is already equivalent to the strength of the True Master in the distraction stage, and Zhuzhu may not be able to survive a single move from it.
However, she had no intention of fighting it head-on. She just wanted to sneak attack from a distance with the Jiuyao Ice Flame Bow.
"You go first, I have my own way."
Seeing her confidence, the other three were also infected by her again, and together with Lightning, they pulled the spirit boat and continued to drive outside the robbery area.
And Zhuzhu shot an ice arrow at the center of the dark cloud with a "whoosh" sound.
After entering the golden elixir stage, her spiritual veins widened dozens of times, and the spiritual energy in her dantian was hundreds of times greater than before, so the power of the ice arrows was also dozens of times greater than before.
In the past, it was possible to kill Master Jindan with one arrow, but now as long as the sneak attack is done properly, even Master Nascent Soul cannot escape.
But it would be difficult to kill the eighth-level peak spirit beast, and Zhuzhu had never thought about killing it. As long as he could successfully attract its attention and no longer put it on the spirit ship, it would be better to inflict some minor damage to it.
Before the first ice arrow arrived, Zhuzhu shot six or seven more ice arrows one after another.
The speed was so fast that the ice arrow disappeared into the dark clouds before even seeing it.
In less than a breath, the sea on the opposite side was boiling more and more fiercely. Zhuzhu heard the roar of the spirit beast, which sounded a bit angry and howling.
It seems that the ice arrow hurt it.
Zhuzhu used her sword to retreat away from the robbery area, while shooting more than a dozen ice arrows in succession.
The roar of the spirit beast became louder and louder. It wanted to find the little bug that was attacking it. Its roar shook the entire sea surface and the water was higher than the mountains. There was no time to launch the human spirit ship into the water to protect it from the thunder disaster.
At this moment, Zhuzhu not only had to struggle to escape from the disaster area, but also had to be careful about being knocked down by the huge waves while flying with the sword.
Seeing that the spirit ship in front of her finally left the disaster area, she breathed a sigh of relief and tried her best to catch up with the spirit ship with her Fengming Sword.
Seeing that she was about to escape from the disaster area, she heard a loud "click" not far above her head, and thunder disasters as thick as the mouth of a bowl fell not far behind her.
The shocked Zhuzhu almost dropped the flying sword and fell into the sea. Fortunately, at the critical moment, she hooked the Fengming Sword with her feet, hanging upside down from the golden hook, and continued to fly forward with the Fengming Sword.
Fortunately, her cultivation level was too low and the first lightning disaster did not count her in, so she was not struck by lightning.
But who knows if she will be so lucky in the future, so she can only run forward desperately.
Seeing that the second thunder tribulation was about to fall, Chen Xuejiao could sense that the thunder tribulation was several times greater than the first. If Zhuzhu was implicated, no one would be left behind.
She quickly called to Lightning to fly her over to save Zhuzhu.
Unexpectedly, Lightning ignored her call at all and turned around like a snake and rushed into the Thunder Tribulation Zone to save Zhuzhu.
Chen Xuejiao: ...She is indeed a disobedient and ambitious demon. After all, this time spent with her was a mistake.
