Text Chapter 1466 The Wind Is Fierce!
Half an hour later, when Li Yao returned to the deck of his five-fanged ship, he was still thinking about what the Phoenix Emperor said just now.
The meaning of those words was very obvious. The Phoenix Emperor wanted to win over Li Yao and establish a sect that was more inclined to the imperial court to compete with the current six major sects and many small and medium sects.
And this exploration of Asgard Palace is an opportunity for the two parties to cooperate.
If Li Yao was really the "Master Vulture", he came with the purpose of "making a name for himself and establishing a sect", and he would most likely be persuaded by the Phoenix Emperor.
"This young emperor's scheming is indeed deep enough, his vision is far-sighted enough, and there is a strong sense of self-confidence faintly revealed between the lines, it seems that there is some unknown support!"
"Otherwise, with his own strength, even with the addition of the five of us, he may not be able to control so many infants from the Six Great Sects!"
"Thinking in another way, if I'm a spy of the real human empire, and I'm new here, and I want to guide the ancient holy world to invest in the empire, it's just a matter of course to cooperate with the emperor!"
"That's why, if there is a big villain who must jump out during this expedition to explore the Asgard, it will most likely be the Phoenix Emperor!"
"On the other hand, Qi Zhongdao is so eager to cooperate with the Phoenix Emperor, maybe there is a big problem. He wants to clean up the entire cultivation world and establish a set of rules of his own. He also has a very strong motive. Spy cooperation!"
"There is also Wang Xi, a dead eunuch who is neither male nor female. The entire expedition to explore the fairy palace was planned by him alone. I feel that he still hides many secrets that have not been made public, and he is not easy to get along with!"
"And Han Baling, Wan Mingzhu, and Qi Changsheng, the three villains, each have sufficient motives. Cooperating with the True Human Empire may suddenly make it difficult for them to explore the Immortal Palace, but it must be avoided !"
"As for Yan Liren, Ba Xiaoyu and Master Kuchan..."
"It feels like the whole thing should have nothing to do with them, but it doesn't have to be. Judging from past experience, the more innocent, ordinary, and more righteous people seem at first, the more likely they are behind the scenes! Maybe wait for everyone to fight , both sides will be hurt, after you die and live, Master Kuchan suddenly let out a piercing grin, and chanted the Buddha's name: 'Long live the Empire of True Humans!' That would be a fucking embarrassment!"
"Wait, doesn't that mean that everyone who participated in the Asgard Exploration Operation, no matter teammates or enemies, may be the big villain with evil intentions?"
Li Yao scratched his head desperately.
He has explored countless ancient ruins in his life, and now seems to be the most complicated one.
"More than that?"
The bloody demon came out from the depths of his mind, "Not only are everyone involved in this operation suspect, they may be the big villain, even us, aren't we also the big villain?"
"Um?"
Li Yao was slightly taken aback, blinking his eyes.
"From our point of view, we naturally feel that among these people, those who cooperate with the real human empire are big villains, big villains."
The bloody demon grinned and said, "But from the perspective of the natives of the ancient holy world, we are the 'alien invaders' with ulterior motives. Aren't we the out-and-out villains?"
"I advise you not to look at the whole matter with a pure concept of 'good and evil', to analyze our friends and enemies."
"Even if Ba Xiaoyu and Master Kuchan are really brave, upright, and compassionate, but we and the empire of real humans are 'alien invaders', why should people choose us instead of us?" What about the empire?"
"For example, in order to protect the entire ancient holy world from the flames of war, so that all the people can live and work in peace and contentment, Ba Xiaoyu and Master Kuchan had to reach a deal with the empire. Isn't it possible to help the empire deal with the federation?"
Li Yao let out a long breath of foul air, realizing that this possibility not only exists, but is also very large.
In the final analysis, "Ancient Sage Civilization" and "Xingyao Civilization" have parted ways for hundreds of thousands of years, and they have been on different development paths. They are already two completely different civilizations.
The natives of the ancient holy world have no obligation or position at all, and they have to consider for the Star Federation.
Even a compassionate person like Master Kuchan would not be able to sacrifice thousands of compatriots in the ancient holy world, or even risk the destruction of the entire civilization, to help the Federation fight a losing battle!
It is really very difficult to convince most of these super Nascent Souls!
"Anyway, when we get to Asgard, let's see each other again!"
Li Yao looked at the gray sky in the distance, and couldn't wait to reach the fairy palace.
...
"The wind is coming!"
"Put up the sails, lower the altitude, and raise the psionic shield!"
"All cultivators stick to their posts, build foundations, form pills, and Nascent Soul to fully use their spiritual powers, strengthen the defensive formation, and resist the strong wind!"
"Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!"
"Ah! Not good!"
"The Ying Yang failed to furl the sails in time, the main mast broke and was caught in the whirlwind of the strong wind. There were faint signs of loss of control. Please come to the rescue, all the immortal masters in the Nascent Soul Stage!"
"Be careful not to let the Eagle Yang collide with the Flying Tiger. The Flying Tiger stores a lot of fire-type crystals for heating!"
"The keel of the Yingyang is broken and it is about to collapse. The Yingyang is hopeless, the Yingyang is hopeless!"
"Everyone on the Yingyang retreated to the Flying Tiger, Yinjiao and Yuxu, please do your best to control the Gangfeng and buy time for the crew of the Yingyang to escape from the Gangfeng." Wind swirl!"
It was obviously infused with psychic energy crazily, and the hoarse roar was deafening around the deck, but once it left the defensive range of the psychic shield and was severely torn by the overwhelming wind, it was immediately fragmented and turned into the moan of a butterfly. Can't hear it at all.
This is the twentieth day since the joint exploration fleet representing the most elite forces in the entire Daqian left the mainland.
On the ocean, with the help of the trade wind, they circled an arc all the way northward, and finally bypassed the Youyun Second State five days ago, and re-cut into the desolate and barren land.
From then on, what surged between the heaven and the earth was no longer a gentle and steady trade wind, but a chaotic wind with no rules at all, elusive and haunting.
Only the most experienced sailors, who climb up and down between the cables day and night, and constantly adjust the angle of dozens of sails, can use every turbulent wind to the extreme.
Such a sailor, ordinary people can't do it.
They are often cultivated by various sects and royal families since childhood, and they are cultivators who have a special perception of wind-type psionic energy.
Such a special talent is called "Wind Rider" in the cultivation world.
The royal family and the six major factions have the best "Wind Riders" in the entire ancient holy world. With the exquisite manipulation of these people, they traveled a long distance of eight thousand miles steadily in just three days.
But that's where the luck ends.
Ahead is the state of eternal night in the extreme north, and the howling wind between the sky and the earth has been upgraded into a gangster mixed with violent spiritual energy.
That is a strong wind that can tear apart the flesh and blood of a cultivator!
Li Yao had never seen such a violent gale.
Even the lightning, thunder, and dust storms on the Great Desolation seem to be less violent than the snowstorm mixed with ice cores in the extreme northern Eternal Night State.
It was as if the stars in the entire universe had turned into fist-sized hailstones, smashing onto the head of this fleet, and under the raging wind, they spun at lightning speed, trying to crush everything that invaded it!
As far as the eye can see, there are white snowstorms in the front, back, left, right, top, bottom, and only the shadows of the surrounding psionic flying boats can be seen vaguely.
Listening carefully, it was full of howling ghosts and howling wolves, suppressing everything, as if it would never end.
This is the will of heaven and earth, this is the fury of the entire planet!
Even high-level monks in the Nascent Soul stage cannot contend with such power!
Under the raging gale wind, all psychic flying boats could not advance or retreat, so they could only lower the sails at the fastest speed, and shoot the claws and anchors towards the ground or the seemingly solid mountains around them, relying on seventy or eighty thighs The iron locks, firmly fixed themselves, and all the cultivators worked together to run the defensive array with all their strength to prevent the strong wind from invading the cabin!
If there is any hesitation when lowering the sails, just like the five-fanged ship "Yingyang", it will be sucked into the depths of the wind, and it will be completely torn apart with dozens of practitioners who did not have time to fly out. Crushed, no bones left!
Even if you lower the sail and fix yourself firmly, everything will not be all right.
Hundreds of iron chains were stretched straight in the strong wind, but soon a layer of hoarfrost condensed, and there was a scream of "squeak".
If some people are unlucky and the claw anchor is nailed to a relatively fragile rock or ground, if it is no match for the power of the wind, it will be thrown away after a harsh sound.
Without the support of a few chains, the pressure on the remaining chains will be even greater, and many chains will break from them, causing the psychic flying boat to shake violently in mid-air. Break and shatter!
A whole day and night of strong winds swept across, besides the Eagle Yang, there were three psychic flying boats, just like that.
And what a "Yuanying old monster" like Li Yao can do, other than do everything possible to bless the defensive array on his battleship, is to barely control the wind before the rest of the battleship is about to collapse, and buy time to escape.
Watching countless cultivators, even several cultivators at the alchemy stage, get caught up in the gale, unable to break free, and finally annihilated in the white snowstorm, even before disappearing, their tendons and bones were broken, and they were torn apart. Such a cruel This scene really made Li Yao sigh.
No wonder Qi Zhongdao, Ba Xiaoyu and others, no matter how much they dislike the imperial court and the major sects, have to hold their noses and cooperate.
With a well-equipped fleet that can support and protect each other, the loss is so heavy.
If relying on bravery and a few Nascent Soul monsters to force their way into the Far North Eternal Night State, the consequences would be unimaginable! (To be continued.) 8
