Chapter 1443: Chapter 1443: Grand Display of Power
This time, although the disciples below the Creation Realm cultivation in the Yunlong Heavenly Palace can participate in the Ancient Ruins expedition, to reduce casualties, the high-level officials of Yunlong Heavenly Palace ultimately decided not to let disciples with too low cultivation partake.
After all, the disciples of Yunlong Heavenly Palace are all promising talents. If they participate in this expedition to the Ancient Ruins and suffer casualties, it would be a huge loss for Yunlong Heavenly Palace.
Therefore, although the Ancient Ruins contain treasures, losing one’s life means that no matter how great the opportunity is, it is of no worth.
The disciples who can enter Yunlong Heavenly Palace are the hope of their families or sects. If they perish in this expedition to the Ancient Ruins, it is akin to severing the family’s hope.
Thus, many disciples, despite wanting to go to the Ancient Ruins, decided not to go after careful consideration.
Even so, there are still many disciples on the square at this moment, showcasing that Yunlong Heavenly Palace truly is the strongest power in the Cloud Dragon Kingdom, even the Royal Family dares not provoke them lightly, their foundation is profound.
Among the disciples participating in the expedition to the Ancient Ruins, Lin Chen saw many familiar faces, Liu Yong, Liang Donghe, Tong Hu, Tan Yingping, Yun Kaige, and others. After a period of absence, these individuals have all made progress in their cultivation, after all, they are Heavenly Pride, exceptionally talented.
Moreover, as Lin Chen’s gaze swept over the crowd, those individuals also kept their eyes on him. Those who have enmity with Lin Chen all have killing intent in their eyes.
Lin Chen naturally felt this killing intent, but he did not take it to heart.
He does not actively provoke these individuals, but if they seek trouble with him, they should not blame him for not being polite; he would not mind sending them off.
While in Yunlong Heavenly Palace, due to its rules, those individuals do not dare to make a lethal move against Lin Chen, but leaving Yunlong Heavenly Palace and entering the Ancient Ruins presents a golden opportunity for them to strike against Lin Chen.
However, while it is a good chance for them to eliminate Lin Chen, it is likewise an opportunity for him.
Lin Chen is most wary of Yun Kaige, and he pays no attention to the others.
After all, when Yun Kaige fought with the Nine-Headed Lion in the second assessment, it left a deep impression in Lin Chen’s mind.
In Lin Chen’s eyes, Yun Kaige’s combat strength was stronger than the assassin Ao Huo who tried to kill him previously.
After waiting for a moment in the square, suddenly an elderly figure descended from the sky. His aura was imposing, giving an impression of profound mystery.
When the elder arrived, everyone on the square fell silent, looking towards him. Clearly, this elder is one of the powerful figures of Yunlong Heavenly Palace.
"I am Du Shaobai from Spirit Martial Hall, and I will lead you to the Ancient Ruins for training."
"Before departure, I have some rules to inform everyone. The purpose of this training is to seize opportunities in the ruins to strengthen Yunlong Heavenly Palace. However, opportunities cannot be forced, nor can they be taken maliciously. As you all know, not only are our martial artists entering this Ancient Ruins, but also those from the Dark Dynasty, so I hope you will help each other and jointly resist the people from Dark Dynasty."
"Remember, there must be no mutual killings between fellow disciples. If such incidents are found, they will be punished by the Law Enforcement Hall. You also have a task in this expedition to the Ancient Ruins, which is to kill martial artists from Black Yan Hall. The corpses can be exchanged for contribution value when you return to Yunlong Heavenly Palace."
"That’s all I have to say. Please remember them. Now follow me aboard the ship."
After Du Shaobai finished speaking, with a wave of his long sleeve, he turned into a beam of light, flying towards the warship in the sky above the square.
This is a super-sized warship, capable of traveling as a flying boat, equipped with runes and artillery; it is indeed a warship.
The warship stretches tens of thousands of zhang in length and thousands of zhang in width, able to accommodate four to five thousand martial artists at once.
After Du Shaobai flew onto the warship, seeing this, everyone also turned into beams of light, boarding the warship.
This time, Yunlong Heavenly Palace dispatched not just this one super-sized warship, but a total of four.
Once the disciples boarded the warship, it immediately started, heading towards the Ancient Ruins.
After the four warships occupied the foremost position, the countless flying boats in Yunlong City slowly followed, heading towards the Ancient Ruins.
This is what is called prestige, and no one dares to vie for position ahead of Yunlong Heavenly Palace.
After all, if anyone dares to jump ahead today, disrespecting Yunlong Heavenly Palace, they might soon be erased from Yunlong City.
Following Yunlong Heavenly Palace’s warship is the Royal Family of Cloud Dragon Kingdom, followed by the Eight Great Noble Families of Yunlong City, and then other various forces.
Countless flying boats fly forward, and Lin Chen felt the extremely fast speed, realizing this super-sized flying boat is indeed the second-grade Earth-level Flying Boat mentioned by Deng Yangbo, but it seems to have been modified into a warship after being bought by Yunlong Heavenly Palace.
This flying boat can travel ten million miles per day, and its price is extremely expensive. If it weren’t for a super power like Yunlong Heavenly Palace, ordinary forces couldn’t possibly afford it.
Moreover, this flying boat consumes Spirit Crystals tremendously. In full flight mode, a flying boat needs to consume ten thousand pieces of low-grade Spirit Crystals per day.
Such consumption can only be afforded by super powers like Yunlong Heavenly Palace.
Understand that their destination this time to the Ancient Ruins lies in the Spiritual Dragon Mountain Range, at the border of Cloud Dragon Kingdom and the Dark Dynasty, stretching millions of miles, requiring a month’s flight to reach.
In other words, for the journey, one warship requires fuel consumption of thirty thousand low-grade Spirit Crystals, and four warships would require a total of one hundred twenty thousand low-grade Spirit Crystals, a burden ordinary forces cannot bear.
At this moment, on the deck, a group of elders is assigning cabins to everyone.
According to the rules, since there are many people going this time, two people need to share one cabin.
Lin Chen looked at Zi Ling and others, contemplating that it is indeed tricky to allocate space for their group from Yellow Hall.
After all, Zi Ling is a woman and it is inconvenient to share a room with anyone.
