Chapter 91 Sun Chaser
"Huh—hiss—hiss!" Cries of surprise rang out almost at the same time. Everyone looked up at the sky, their pupils suddenly shrank, their faces filled with shock and disbelief.
Shangguan Jiannan looked up at the huge creature, his eyes sparkling, and his tone was heavy with a barely perceptible heaviness: "Secret treasure, the Sun Chasing Flying Boat."
As soon as these words were spoken, the square instantly boiled over, the crowd surged like a tide, and all eyes were focused on the Sun-Chasing Flying Boat floating in the air.
This flying boat, which is driven by secret methods, can travel a thousand miles a day. Even a huge sect like the Tianjian Sect only has this one, and it is extremely precious.
The Sun-Chasing Flying Boat had sharp points at both ends and a bulge in the middle, shaped like a flying shuttle. However, at this moment, it had been magnified countless times, hovering above everyone's heads, bringing a suffocating feeling of oppression.
The outer disciples in the distance were so shocked that they were speechless.
The flying boat was about thirty feet above the ground, and people on the ground could clearly see the figures flashing above.
Then, dozens of long ropes as thick as arms were hung from the flying boat, swaying in the wind.
The disciples' robes were rustling in the sudden strong wind.
"Go!" Yin Wuqing's low and powerful voice sounded again. Before he finished speaking, his figure disappeared like a ghost.
Shangguan Jiannan and others were still in shock when they saw the elders in white robes rising into the air and following closely behind.
Above the boundless void, with the help of long ropes, everyone jumped lightly and stepped into the arms of the Sun-Chasing Flying Boat.
The disciples at the edge of the square were so excited that they could hardly suppress their emotions, but they could only watch from afar, their desire and envy were beyond words.
Shangguan Jiannan and his disciples were no exception. They suppressed their inner ecstasy, stepped on the solid ground, suddenly rose up, held on to the long rope tightly, and climbed up quickly like nimble monkeys.
The extremely powerful disciples displayed amazing skills, they stepped on the long ropes just like the elders and completed the leap with ease.
Shangguan Jiannan and others had to follow the rules, hold on to the ropes tightly, and climb up step by step.
Every time he pulled with all his strength, his body leaped several feet away with such speed that it was astonishing. In just a few dozen breaths, he had already approached the Sun-Chasing Flying Boat.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" A series of dull sounds echoed on the hard deck. Those were the sounds of several figures landing steadily on the ground.
At this point, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Shangguan Jiannan being one of them.
Standing on the flying boat, the tension in his heart gradually dissipated. He looked around and felt the grandeur of this Sun-Chasing Flying Boat firsthand.
The deck is wider than one could imagine, being more than ten feet wide. Behind it are wooden pavilions that are arranged in an orderly manner, one layer upon another, creating a spectacular sight.
According to a rough estimate, this Sun-Chasing Flying Boat is at least thirty zhang long and more than ten zhang wide. Its size is unbelievable.
What is even more amazing is that such a huge creature can soar into the sky and reach a speed of thousands of miles a day. Its magic is beyond words.
On the flying boat, the art of carving reached its peak. Every detail revealed the craftsman's exquisite skills and extraordinary creativity. Its gorgeousness made Shangguan Jiannan amazed.
The disciples who were traveling with him were also amazed. Obviously, for most people, this Sun Chasing Flying Boat was a legendary existence. Now seeing it with their own eyes, how could they not be shocked? Being in the sky dozens of feet high, there was no sense of strong winds. Shangguan Jiannan observed carefully and found that the flying boat was surrounded by a thin film of air shield that was almost invisible to the naked eye. It was like a guardian god, isolating the storm from the outside world and allowing the people in the boat to enjoy peace and tranquility.
Everyone was so fascinated by this novel environment that they were reluctant to leave.
Elders such as Yin Wuqing stood at the front, leading everyone forward.
After all the disciples had boarded the boat, the thick ropes that were originally hanging were slowly retracted one by one.
Immediately afterwards, Yin Wuqing shouted in a deep voice: "Set sail!" In an instant, roars arose everywhere, and the huge Sun-Chasing Flying Boat seemed to be pushed suddenly by an invisible hand, shaking constantly, accompanied by a loud "boom" sound, which caused an uproar all around.
The speed increased suddenly, and the surrounding airflow was cut sharply and diverted on both sides of the thin film air shield. The flying boat was like an arrow shot from a bow, rushing straight into the sky with a deafening roar.
Looking back, the scene of the sect surrounded by mountains quickly shrank until it was completely hidden from sight.
The Sun-Chasing Flying Boat was unstoppable. It penetrated through layers of sea of clouds, plunged into the boundless sky, and finally disappeared into the vast sky. Its target was the distant Broken Cloud Mountains.
With a loud bang, the clouds in the sky suddenly split apart, and then a black shadow, like an arrow of dawn, tore through the tranquility of the space.
The black shadow was none other than the Sun-Chasing Flying Boat that Tianjian Sect’s disciples Shangguan Jiannan and others were riding on. It sped out, cutting through the sky.
The Sun-Chasing Flying Boat shuttled through the void at an astonishing speed, unimpeded, as if it was roaming freely between heaven and earth.
It was as smooth as solid ground, and no one could feel any bumps.
A circle of soft, transparent light curtain surrounds the area, isolating the strong winds and huge waves from the outside world and creating a peaceful world.
Shangguan Jiannan and others were either resting in the cabin or standing on the deck, leisurely enjoying the magnificent scenery around them.
There were nearly a hundred disciples and elders on this Sun-Chasing Flying Boat. Despite the large number of people, everything was in good order and not crowded at all.
Shangguan Jiannan stood on the deck, gazing at the rolling sea of clouds in front of him, and couldn't help feeling shocked.
"This Sun Chasing Flying Boat is indeed a great tool for traveling."
He whispered to himself, his heart full of admiration.
Recalling the hardships of riding horses to the Broken Cloud Mountains in the past, even a top-notch horse would take several days to arrive. But now this flying boat can travel thousands of miles a day. Its speed is astonishing.
It was the first time for many disciples to ride on this boat, and they were full of curiosity and amazement about everything around them.
This huge ship, carrying the elites of the Tianjian Sect, sped towards the Duanyun Mountains.
As the sky gradually darkened, the setting sun slowly sank into the horizon and the roars of several monsters could be heard faintly, indicating that they were approaching their destination.
The disciples' faces were filled with anticipation and joy, and they were full of praise for the speed of the Sun-Chasing Flying Boat.
In just a few hours, they had traveled hundreds of miles and arrived near the Duanyun Mountains.
However, the white-robed elders at this time did not dare to slack off at all. They looked solemn and vigilantly observed the movements around them.
Elder Yin Wuqing shouted loudly: "Inner disciples, quickly return to your rooms and hide!" At the same time, he also reminded all elders to stay vigilant and guard against the invasion of flying monsters.
His voice revealed urgency and determination, which quickly spread throughout the entire flying boat.
Upon hearing this, the disciples immediately became nervous and returned to their rooms for shelter.
The white-robed elders went up to the deck one after another, each occupying a favorable position to guard the safety of the flying boat.
In this crisis-ridden sky, they will ensure the safety of the disciples of the Tianjian Sect with their firm will and powerful strength.
In the depths of the Duanyun Mountains, there are many terrifyingly powerful flying monsters lurking. When night falls, they become restless and extremely active.
As the Sun-Chasing Flying Boat leisurely passed over the mountain range, its speed involuntarily slowed down a bit.
Suddenly, the deck was lit up with light, and a flame over ten feet long leaped out like a dragon, instantly flew out of the hand, cut through the night sky, and accurately hit a dark shadow in the distant void.
With a loud bang, the dark shadow exploded like fireworks in the night sky, and bits of fire scattered everywhere, brilliant and dangerous.
A man in a white robe, holding a long sword, stood quietly at the bow with a stern expression. There was still a lingering burning air on the sword, and the faint sword energy was lingering, which made people feel uneasy.
