Sea Cultivation: Giant Ships and Heavy Artillery Knock on the Door to All Races

Chapter 160: Mysterious Origin, Blazing Winged Beast (nd update, words)
"Got you!"

At the beginning of the illusion, even Lin Qianfan, who had an extremely strong spiritual power, could not completely lock onto the opponent, but maintaining such a large illusion must consume a lot of energy, and the opponent must take the initiative to end the battle.

And the first move is a flaw!
When the prey came, Lin Qianfan personally controlled the demon ship to activate the giant harpoon while also releasing the Thunder-Slaying Sword that was ready to go.

"How dare you, you bastard, be so arrogant! Dingshui!"

This red demon shark obviously has some background. After being controlled by the waterspout, it directly used a spirit bead embedded in the sea stone halberd to disperse Yinlin's waterspout. This is obviously a treasure that can restrain water magic very well, and Yinlin's eyes lit up when he saw it.

Ang~
Just as Yin Lin's paws and claws, which were bigger than millstones, were about to hit him, the shark diamond on the forehead of the red ghost shark flashed, and his figure instantly flashed several feet away, completely dissolving Yin Lin's attack.

"A bastard is a bastard..."

The red demon shark, who was originally going to continue to mock to vent his anger, saw a trace of pity in the silver scale's innocent big eyes. It was the pitiful look of the strong towards the weak.

"not good…"

Clang clang clang

Although the demon-hunting harpoon dragging the chain came slowly, it went straight towards the mermaid as if it had eyes.

Seeing that there was no escape, I was about to be pierced through.
The colorful shark-shaped gemstone on its forehead had dimmed when it used the teleportation technique previously, and it was obviously difficult to use the same trick again.

"Rebuke the Void Technique!"

The timing of the sneak attack was too good, and the Red Demon Shark had no time to dodge, but it also had a way to deal with it. The giant harpoon that was originally aimed at the target was pushed to the side by a special repulsive force. It was obviously a sure hit, but the two sides missed each other in an instant.

"so close!"

Looking at the giant harpoon that was almost the same size as his body shooting into the air, Akame was still frightened. Humans are so cunning.

puff~

A sharp and silent sword pierced through the belly of the red demon shark, leaving a bloody hole with residual sword energy.

If it hadn't moved strangely just now, causing the Thunder-Slaying Sword to not have time to completely adjust its trajectory, this sword would have been able to cut off its head.

However, being pierced by the Zhan Ting Sword was not just a simple penetrating wound, but also left Gengjin sword energy in his body.

The sharp Gengjin sword energy contains sword intent, which can continuously destroy the fragile meridians of the red ghost shark, and its wounds can never heal and continue to bleed heavily.

"Cunning humans!"

Ang~
When the Red Demon Shark was injured, it temporarily lost its super ability to move, and was approached by Silver Scale and tightly entangled.

There was a huge difference in size between the two sides, and naturally a huge difference in physical strength as well, making it almost impossible to break free.

The Red Demon Shark was captured alive and brought aboard the ship. Suppressed by the demon-hunting ship's formation, it was in a very bad condition. Continuous bleeding, damaged internal organs, and rough entanglement put it on the verge of death.

"Let me see what secrets you have! Soul Searching!"

Logically speaking, this species should not appear in the nearby waters, especially since the opponent's halberd weapon is very extraordinary and obviously has some unknown secrets.

"Huh? Died already?"

The soul-searching technique derived from the power of visualization of the sun is gentler and more sophisticated than the general soul-searching techniques on the market, but the opponent's soul collapsed the moment it was touched by Lin Qianfan. It was obvious that it had practiced very strict secret techniques to ensure that the secrets were not leaked.

"The Red Demon Shark is a rare offshore species, seemingly not native to the Ocean of Storms. How did it appear in the nearby waters? Was it forced out by the altered ecology caused by the lava tsunami? Where was it hiding before?"

Lin Qianfan had many questions in his mind, but after searching the other party's temporary hiding place without success, he completely lost all clues. Since there were no clues, there was no need to care. Since Chiyan Xiancheng could issue this task without investigating it himself, it meant that they didn't care.

"A special seastone halberd, the intact body of a red demon shark, and a special shark water lily. What a good harvest!"

Not all living organisms have demon pills. For example, humans often have to wait until the Golden Core stage before they can form their own "pill".

The core inside the body of this second-level red demon shark is not a bead, but a colorful diamond crystal, which is the complete diamond crystal on the forehead of the red demon shark.

"The energy contained in this object is special, and seems to be related to its ability to teleport instantly. However, the amount contained in it is too small, so tiny that I can't use it for much."

After killing the red shark, the fog that trapped the monster hunting ship lost its source of support, and Yinlin recovered the spiritual water that had a shielding effect.

"Can I have this?"

Silver Scale rarely opened its mouth to ask for things, and was obviously very interested in this ball of spiritual water, but its eyes were staring straight at the sea stone halberd, and it was obvious that it also wanted the water-fixing beads on it.

"Okay, I'll give you this one too. It suits you very well."

That ball of spiritual water can enhance the concealment of Silver Scale and increase the success rate of sneak attacks.

In addition, this seastone halberd, which has special abilities, can also serve as a powerful attack method for Silver Scale.

In the future, you don’t have to rush forward every time. Instead, you can copy the attack process of the Red Demon Shark, disguise yourself as a weak magic monster, and wait for the opponent to try every possible way to get close to you.

Blazing Island Pier,
Going back and forth, plus the detours caused by unfamiliarity with the people and the sea, we were not seen for two days at most. The construction of the wharf was progressing very quickly, and the population was visibly increasing.

"Friend Lin returned so quickly, it seems the trip went smoothly."

"Not bad! I'll come back to turn in the task and see if there are any suitable new tasks."

The kill certificate did not record how Lin Qianfan succeeded. It only recorded the process of Lin Qianfan searching for the red ghost shark's nest, the process of digging out the shark spirit, and the details of the red ghost shark's corpse.

In addition to taking out that very special mermaid diamond, Lin Qianfan successfully exchanged it for a bounty of one hundred medium-grade spirit stones.

Not to mention anything else, this bounty alone is far higher than what you can get from hunting a regular second-level monster. I don’t know how long this high bounty can last, I just hope it lasts as long as possible.

As for the remaining materials, since the red demon shark is not big enough and is more of a magic cultivator, it is not very valuable if it is taken apart. Lin Qianfan kept the whole body and waited for someone who was interested.

[Second-level Frost Beast…]

"The target is acting cautiously. We need to go to the island to search for him. This would require us to give up the demon hunting ship's greatest advantage. It's not appropriate..."

[Second-level Spiral Fish Monster...]

"The target is good at water, but its range of activity is too large, so it's not easy to find it. This mission is pending, let's see..."

[Level 2 Lava Tortoise…]

"The target likes to sleep and dive deep into the magma. This also requires luck, and there's a high probability of wasting time..."

There are many kinds of tasks issued by the Chiyan Immortal City, but there are not many people who can take them, so Lin Qianfan can choose the one that suits him best.

"It's a pity that there is only one boat. It would be better if Starling was here." Some missions are not accepted because one boat does not have enough confidence. If the target escapes, it is a waste of time. But if two boats work together, the problem will be simple.

"Mynah birds will come after winter comes."

Lin Qianfan believed that after the other ships returned to the family in late autumn and knew the situation here, they would definitely not take winter break, but would rush here as soon as possible.

After a period of time,

Relying on the relatively accurate information provided by the Blazing Immortal City, the Wind Rider successfully hunted down second-level targets several times in a row, making a huge profit, far exceeding Lin Qianfan's expectations for the maiden voyage.

Some of them are solitary, some live in groups, some are simple, and some are difficult, but any early-stage second-order monster will be doomed when it encounters the Wind Rider, which has an over-equipped ship.

"Wow, it's only been a few days since we last saw each other, and the canal is already built!"

When Lin Qianfan returned to the dock for the fifth time, he discovered that a canal leading to the inland had appeared out of nowhere beside the dock. This was obviously the work of the Qiao family's Taishang. It seemed that his injuries had improved a lot.

"It's winter now, and more and more spirit ships are arriving at Chirong Island. My small dock can no longer handle them. My ancestor is now a little free, so he has freed up his hands to open the canal."

People are in high spirits when good things happen to them. Qiao Mufeng has been praised to the sky by many people recently.

"How is the reconstruction of Blazing Immortal City going?"

"Recently, manpower has arrived and the progress is good. Some of the original functional areas have been restored. The Immortal City still needs to be further expanded on the original basis. Fellow Daoist, you can go and see it for yourself."

Speaking of this, Qiao Mufeng spoke with pride, and was obviously proud of the development of the fairy city.

"Don't worry for now, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

The Lin family also has a large piece of land on Chirong Island. The people who came here to develop it earlier are already in charge of the work, but it will take quite some time for the development to be mature.
The Wind Rider won't be of much help if we go there, as the cost-effectiveness is not high, and there's nothing to see in the Blazing Immortal City. It's better to seize the time and continue hunting monsters while the bounty hasn't dropped too much.

【Location: Xiasha Volcanic Island,
This place was originally the Xiasha Volcano connected to the Hot Lava Cave. It was later sealed by the Carp Dragon Demon King and then connected by the Flame Domain Beast King. On the day when the Hot Lava Cave collapsed, a large amount of magma was ejected at the same time to form an island, which is today's Xiasha Volcano Island.

A second-stage early-stage peak scorching-winged beast recently migrated to this island. This beast is good at fire, flying, and close combat. It can hide in volcanoes to avoid being cleared out, and can also use the power in them to heal wounds.

It is recommended to go and eliminate them when you are in the middle stage of foundation building or above, otherwise it will be futile.

Reward: One hundred mid-grade spirit stones. Proof of the kill is all that is required. The killer retains the Blazing Wings.

"This mission is interesting."

Not only is the bounty quite high, but no spoils need to be handed over. Complete Blazing Wings are extremely rare materials suitable for refining second-order flying spiritual weapons, and their value is not low.

Although all foundation-building cultivators can fly, there are differences in flying speed. Those who have learned the art of escape can fly faster than those who have not, and those with advanced escape techniques can fly faster than those with ordinary escape techniques. In addition, the flying speed is also affected by multiple dimensions.

Special flying spiritual weapons can provide faster flying speed and more flexible dodging capabilities with the same consumption, and can be used for pursuit, escape, travel, etc.

"It's a pity that it's not of the metal element, so it can't be used to its full potential."

The five elements are mutually generated and restrained. It is not that gold-attributed cultivators cannot control fire-attributed spiritual weapons, but it is difficult for them to exert their limits.

"But you can still take it first."

After the mission is accepted, Xiancheng will take it off the shelves. If it is not completed within the specified time, it will be considered a mission failure. At that time, Xiancheng will adjust the bounty appropriately according to the specific difficulty in order to attract stronger players.

The same goes for tasks that have not been touched for a long time. If no one accepts them, it means that the bounty is not given correctly and needs to be adjusted and corrected.

Even if the Wind Rider cannot take this matter alone, it can still occupy it. Then it can join forces with other monster-hunting ships in the family to complete this task. Logically, they will come here shortly after winter.

Xiasha Volcanic Island.

Unlike the huge and flat Chirong Island, Xiasha Island is smaller than the ordinary second-level spiritual island, and the concentration of spiritual energy there is also average. Obviously, the place with high concentration of spiritual energy is in the volcano.

"Seraphim is good at fighting? I want to see how good it is at fighting!"

"Adjust the defensive formation to the ordinary second-level lower grade and bombard!"

When facing this kind of target with a violent fire attribute, you don't need to go to the island to find it. Just provoke it directly and it will come out to observe whether the target is capable of fighting.

As long as it finds that the Wind Rider is not strong enough and is a soft persimmon that can be bullied, it will take the initiative to chase it out.

Boom~
Although the psychic cannon has limited power, it explodes loudly enough, and when it hits the crater, it raises clouds of smoke and dust. As long as the opponent is there, he will definitely be angry.

At first, there was no reaction.
But a moment later, a red shadow rushed out from the crater, and without any roar or shouting, it flew directly towards the Wind Rider.

"Raise the strength of the formation to the lower limit of the second stage and let it vent its energy first."

"Take out all the demon-hunting crossbows and shoot at him. Keep irritating him! Don't let it stop!"

"Yes!"

The old sailors stood on the deck, holding first-level demon-hunting crossbows and ready to attack the red shadow, even though they couldn't see the target clearly.

According to the records of the Immortal City, this task has been taken on twice, but both times no one was able to defeat the monster. This shows that it also recognizes this kind of monster-hunting ship and must be very brave.

咻咻咻～
A red shadow flashed past the top of the monster hunting ship, and all the monster hunting crossbows were empty.

The sharp claws scratched through the demon-hunting ship's protective formation, producing a piercing scream. People who disliked this sound would feel physical discomfort, and only a few long red marks that continued to heal were left on the formation.

"Although the speed is extremely fast, the attack strength is limited."

In the brief moment of contact just now, Lin Qianfan saw the full appearance of the Fiery Winged Beast.

Its head is hideous and ferocious, not like a human face, but more like a ghost from the underworld, and can stop children from crying at night;

Its main body is two meters long, slender and agile, full of strength;

Its wingspan is over 40 meters. They are not wings made of feathers but of scales and flesh. Between the scales and flesh, a dense black-red flame burns. It is obvious that these wings can not only fly, but also have offensive functions.
In addition to a pair of sharp claws with a cold glow, it also has a thick and powerful tail, which seems to have attack power in addition to controlling flight and turning.

Seeing that the claw attack was ineffective, the Seraphite quickly turned and flew again. It wanted to try other means of attack one by one.

After all, the two big guys of this type in front were driven away by it in this way. Although they made loud noises, they couldn't hit anything, so the threat level was limited.

"Fourteenth Master, do we need to increase the intensity?"

"No, just let it hit you a few times, don't scare it away."
