The abandoned cannon fodder girl's path to immortality

Chapter 183 Bombarding the Cultivator
"I wonder when you intend to return from your journey to Guanghan Immortal City, Senior Brother?"

Inside the cabin of the Xuanming Sect's spirit ship, Chen Jinshu sat opposite Wang Quan, the senior brother who was leading the ship.

In the center was a tea table, where a pot of Qingning tea was being brewed, emitting a faint blue mist.

Chen Jinshu quickly brewed the tea and poured a cup for Wang Quan.

"This is a top-grade Qingning tea, personally cultivated by my junior sister. I hope senior brother won't find it lacking!" Chen Jinshu smiled faintly, raising his teacup to gesture to the other party.

Her return to her family this time was mainly to settle her worldly affairs so that she could focus on her cultivation in the future.

Although the other senior brothers had not severed ties with the family, their interactions had become much less frequent.

Shui Huanmeng taught them that once they embarked on the path of cultivation, they should reduce such mundane and trivial matters so that they could concentrate on cultivation and pursue higher realms.

Master's advice was not without reason. Chen Qiaozhen could not bear to part with her family and rushed back to save the broken Chen family, which was an obstacle.

And it has already had some impact.

Although Chen Qiaozhen awakened from her dream of the future and focused more on cultivation, she was constantly distracted by worldly affairs, perhaps due to the lack of guidance from high-level cultivators.

"You're too kind, junior sister!"

“The sect’s business in Guanghan Immortal City is quite large, and it won’t be over anytime soon. It will take at least three or four months, and at most half a year. Junior Sister, would you like to take a spirit ship back along the way?” Wang Quan took a sip of Qingning tea, quite pleased with Chen Jinshu’s support, and understood her thoughts, so he spoke directly.

"I've taken on a mission in this area, not too big, not too small. So it will take two or three months to complete. My only concern is that there won't be a spirit ship to return to the family, and the journey will take up a lot of time," Chen Jinshu said with a slight frown and a look of deep emotion.

“Junior Sister, you could actually go to Guanghan Immortal City to find cultivators from the Xuanming Sect. The Xuanming Sect has a shop in the Immortal City called Lingxiu Pavilion. If any ships from the sect stop there, they will be registered. Junior Sister could go and inquire about it.”

"Oh, this is my communication talisman. I'll let you know when I've finished the business and am ready to return. Of course, you can also send me a message after you've completed your mission." Wang Quan took out a communication talisman and handed it to Chen Jinshu.

Exchanging a communication talisman for a few cups of spiritual tea from Chen Jinshu isn't a bad deal.

"Thank you, Senior Brother!" Chen Jinshu smiled and put away the communication talisman, not expecting to get it so quickly.

That day, we still had to take my mother away, and it wouldn't be very safe to take the spirit boat or the Yinshan Sparrow.

It should be noted that there is a 10-20% chance of encountering bandits when traveling on a sect's ship.

She had heard that ships from the sect that went out, especially those far from the Xuanming Sect's territory, were often attacked by unknown raiders.

Of course, these cultivators are less likely to succeed.

"Junior sister, this tea is really good. May I have some?" Wang Quan felt his meridians widen slightly and his physical strength increase after just one cup of tea.

I had long heard that all the disciples of Medicine King Peak possessed remarkable skills in cultivating spiritual plants, and seeing it today, I can confirm it is true.

"I just picked the Qingning tea not long ago. There are five packets left, each weighing about ten taels. How about I charge you ten spirit stones per packet, senior brother?"

This Qingning Tea was freshly picked from the tea tree by her, and its medicinal properties are well preserved. Regular consumption can enhance its body-strengthening and solidifying effects, comparable to a second-grade spiritual tea.

"Junior Sister, you're too kind. This quality of spiritual tea would cost over fifty spirit stones in the market. How about thirty spirit stones for a packet?"

"make a deal!"

……

Not long after the two completed their transaction, they noticed that the spirit ship seemed to have been attacked by something and was shaking slightly.

"Attacked?" Chen Jinshu secured the tea table, his expression suspicious. "It must have been a group of bandits blocking the road. They're already five or six hundred miles outside the sect's territory," Wang Quan guessed, glancing at the scenery and sky outside the window.

"Senior Brother Wang! A group of bandits are blocking our way!"

At this moment, disciples from the sect on the spirit ship came to report the situation.

"These cultivators are far too audacious. They even dare to intercept ships belonging to a major sect like the Xuanming Sect." Wang Quan sighed, but there was little surprise in his eyes, as if he had experienced such scenes many times before.

"Senior brother! Let's go take a look together. These Tribulation cultivators shouldn't be afraid of death." Chen Jinshu then put away the tea table and teacups and said to Wang Quan.

"Alright! Today, let my junior sister see the defensive capabilities of this spirit ship!"

Wang Quan nodded upon hearing this, a hint of confidence on his face.

The sect had long anticipated this situation, which is why they dared to send him, a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator, and two early-Foundation Establishment cultivators to lead the ships.

Sending a Golden Core elder would be an exaggeration, so a lot of effort was put into the construction of the ship. In addition to enhancing its defense to the third level, the power of a mid-to-late Golden Core cultivator was also increased, along with many other means of defeating the enemy.

Upon arriving on the deck of the spirit ship, Chen Jinshu saw eight black-robed cultivators in front of him, casting spells towards the spirit ship.

Numerous fireballs and golden arrows shot towards the spirit ship's barrier.

Despite firing for a long time, the spirit ship's defensive barriers still showed no signs of damage.

"Senior brother, is the defense of this spirit ship at level three?"

"Junior Sister has a good eye! These eight Foundation Establishment cultivators have virtually no chance of taking down the spirit ship. Even if a Golden Core cultivator came, it would take several hours," Wang Quan said calmly.

"Next, let my junior sister see the attack power of the spirit ship!"

As Wang Quan spoke, he took out a spirit plate for controlling the spirit ship and poured a stream of spiritual energy into it.

Three cannons were immediately set up in the center of the spirit ship.

"This is a Fire Spirit Cannonball, a cannonball made from gunpowder and many other materials. Firing one can withstand a full-force attack from a Golden Core cultivator in the early stages."

'Bang!' Three loud cannon shots rang out in succession, and three red trails shot straight toward the eight people in front of them.

The moment it made contact with the eight people, an explosion occurred, as if a large amount of fiery red magma was emitted, along with a large amount of black and white smoke.

"Ah!" Eight voices rang out in unison, and a large number of corpse fragments fell downwards.

Several Foundation Establishment cultivators nearby reacted quickly and used their artifact manipulation techniques to retrieve the storage bag.

"Junior sister! How powerful is this cannonball?"

"Very strong!" Chen Jinshu nodded with a hint of shock in his eyes.

No wonder Wang Quan remained calm from the moment he heard about the Tribulation Cultivator; it turns out the spirit ship is so safe that only cultivators above the Golden Core stage need to be cautious.

For cultivators below the Golden Core stage, it generally won't affect their travel.

"Alright! Let's continue drinking tea!" Two Foundation Establishment cultivators, each carrying a storage bag, approached Wang Quan, who immediately smiled and invited Chen Jinshu to join them.

"it is good!"

Wang Quan's move was simply to divide up these storage bags, and Chen Jinshu would never refuse such a good deal.
