Chapter 472



472 Steel warship

This world was completely different from the Blue Planet that Lu Qing had been on in his previous life.

Lu Qing’s hometown was a world with an ocean that was much larger than the land. However, it was different in the cultivation world. Although the ocean was not small, it might not be as large as the land.

At the same time, the area of the cultivation world was much larger than Lu Qing’s hometown.

A state was tens of thousands of miles long. Whether it was from south to north or from east to west, it was difficult for even Qi refining cultivators to walk across the entire land, let alone ordinary people. Without the help of external forces, he might not be able to travel this far in his life-after all, he needed to rest even if he traveled at full speed.

Furthermore, Lu Qing was able to confirm one thing from various ancient books. The cultivation world was round. There was once a high-level cultivator who traveled from the East of Qi state to the deep sea. In the end, he saw another continent and found that he was on the western coast of Qin State. At the same time, there were also people who headed south, crossing the sea in the South of the Wu Kingdom. However, they found that the weather was getting colder and colder. Finally, they arrived at the northern end of the Yan Kingdom.

Even in this sense, it was also important for the Lu Corporation to head east, expand its Ocean Territory, seek allies, and indirectly rule. Apart from the resources of the ocean and the manpower of the sea Race, it was necessary to prevent the elite troops of the Qin country from invading from the eastern coast.

After all, this method of ocean smuggling had just been used decades ago to invade the Wu State from the eastern sea. They had fought a beautiful surprise attack against the capital of the Wu State. If the Yan country could use the same method, the Qin country could do the same.

……

Since it was a set plan to set out for the sea, the action was naturally very fast.

Wei Yun was quickly transferred back from Wu country, and at the same time, the preparations were already done.

The deep sea wasn’t suitable for large-scale human cultivators. It was difficult for low-level cultivators to move in the ocean for a long time. Even those who were more powerful, unless they were water-element cultivators, would be greatly affected.

However, as one of the overlords of the East Sea, the giant octopus, bo wan, was the Prince of the Yan Kingdom. They were allies. He had already promised that not only would he personally go out and join forces with Wei Yun, but at the same time, the underwater city under his command would also organize a corresponding Army of the sea Race as the main force to accompany the attack.

Of course, the Yan Kingdom had also mobilized a small team of elite water-element cultivators to act as the emperor’s guards.

That’s right. Lu chaoxi, the Emperor of Great Yan, had come personally.

As the Emperor, he was very busy. But to be honest, this kind of busy was only relative.

He ruled the entire eastern part of the cultivation world, from the South to the North. The three immortal kingdoms of Yan, Wei, and Wu had already become the territory of the Lu clan, and there was also the Qi Kingdom, which had essentially become a vassal of the great Yan. The number of Affairs he had to deal with was explosive.

However, it was precisely because of this that Lu chaoxi was not so busy.

If he had to do everything by himself, even an energetic nascent soul cultivator would be exhausted to death.

To govern such a huge country, one must rely on a huge and professional bureaucratic system.

As for Lu chaoxi himself, he felt that his daily life was not very different from the past.

Of course, he would need to spend some time to deal with state affairs, and it would take a lot of time.

However, he usually spent most of his time on his own cultivation.

After all, this was a world of cultivation. Strength was everything, and the Emperor was no exception.

It was his own request to go to the bottom of the sea and participate in this event.

As for the danger, there was definitely some, but it was relatively good.

Lu mingchao was also among the people who had come with him.

These two people who needed breakthrough materials had both come personally.

……

The siblings, Lu chaoxi and Lu mingchao, were rather shocked when they saw the underwater city for the first time.

In terms of grandeur and city scale, this underwater city might not be comparable to the capital of Yan. However, an underwater city that was built in the ocean looked completely different from a human city on land.

The underwater city built in a three-dimensional way was beautiful and special.

In the underwater city, they had been guests for a few days, and the good food and drinks they had received were all things that were rarely seen on land.

A few days later, they were invited by Prince yanhai, bo wan, to inspect the Army of the underwater city.

In the ocean, they were arranged in neat cubic lines, looking very mighty.

In particular, the two siblings, as well as Weiyun, all noticed a few big guys.

That thing was like a human’s flying ship, but it was obviously larger than the large human flying ship. Moreover, their appearance was even more ferocious and terrifying, like steel fortresses.

Bo wan proudly introduced it to them. This was his ‘underwater fleet’. He also said that this was something he had created after exchanging letters with Lu Qing many times. He had obtained some inspiration and created this.

Each of the battleships was controlled by a late-stage nascent soul realm sea tribe demon. There were many formations and special materials that couldn’t be found at the bottom of the ocean, which were obtained through trade with the humans on land.

These battleships had many gun barrels extended out of them, and there were also some powerful array facilities.

According to bo wan, these could be used to attack directly. As for the power, it would even make him, a Dharma-level demon, feel some pain.

At the same time, its defensive power was not low. Taking himself as an example, it would take him a lot of effort to dismantle such a warship at the bottom of the sea.

Lu chaoxi’s interest was obviously piqued by what she said.

The ‘warship’ in front of them could only be used in an underwater environment. However, human cultivators also had the technology to build large flying ships. It was not impossible to make them bigger, but it was not necessary.

However, if he could build a large human airboat like the one Bowan had made, it would have a lot of practical significance.

It wasn’t true that these battleships could be piloted by a few nascent soul cultivators to fight against Dharma cultivators, but at least these things would give nascent soul cultivators a certain ability to resist when facing Dharma cultivators.

At the same time, if such a thing appeared on the battlefield, it could also be a very effective strategic fulcrum and play an extraordinary role.

Lu chaoxi silently noted down this matter. He was prepared to go back and find some formation Masters and equipment forging Masters to work on it. Perhaps he would be able to gain something.

Lu Qing, who had also arrived in his consciousness form, was even more dumbfounded.

He had nothing to do at first, and when he knew that his son and daughter were about to reach the bottom of the sea, he came over to take a look. In the end, he saw such an amazing thing.

What bo wan said about communicating with him with pen and paper was indeed true. However, to be honest, to Lu Qing, Qianqian was just casually chatting with the giant octopus and talking nonsense. The main content was to refer to some sci-fi movies in Lu Qing’s memory from his previous life, such as the space battleships in his fantasy.

He swore that he really didn’t provide any amazing technology. He was really just having a blind chat with an ignorant country bumpkin. Moreover, during this process, Lu Qing had nothing to do and would not go to the underwater world. As for whether bo wan had taken his words seriously and started to research the Pixiu, Lu Qing had not thought about it.

In the end, he was shocked.

However, Lu Qing became excited after that.

Of course, he could tell that this thing had great strategic value.

In the past, in the wars of the cultivation world, especially between celestial nations, if one side did not have a cultivator of the Dharma plane, they would almost lose the ability to take the initiative to attack. Otherwise, they would be defeated by the enemy Dharma power. Even if they were to defend, they would have to rely on some high-level spiritual veins as a defensive stronghold. Only then would they have the hope of relying on their advantage in numbers to defend.

If they could really create some flying warships and mature the technology, the situation would not be completely reversed, but at least it would be much better.

There was no need to start all over again from the beginning. Since there was already a finished product here, he definitely had to share the technology he had researched.

Although bo wan had created an underwater warship, there were many things he could learn from. After all, in this world of cultivation, the technological difference between submarine warships and aerial warships was much smaller than the ships and planes in his previous life.

Lu Qing turned to look at the giant octopus. He could see that the giant octopus had a proud look on its face. It looked like it was showing off the big toy it had made.

This guy really didn’t have any desire to strive for hegemony, become stronger, and obtain a higher status. In addition to his powerful cultivation at the materialization realm, he was like a homebody. He was not very willing to go out. Moreover, he was particularly concerned about his territory in the underwater city. He was like a farmer who wanted to build his own territory.

This kind of personality was quite good for Yingying.

Great Yan did not need an ambitious Ocean Prince.

……

Bo wan led the new army that he had spent decades building through trading and exchanging technology with the human cultivators on land and set out to the deeper parts of the East Ocean.

Lu chaoxi, Lu mingchao, Wei Yun, and the other human cultivators were all invited to board the largest underwater warship that he had built.

This battleship was called ‘Nautilus’. According to bo wan, Lu Qing had told him this name in the letter. Bo wan thought it was a good name, so he used it.

Their target was a sea snake called ‘yang gan’.

Bo wan knew this yang gan. They had met a long time ago and there was some enmity between them. According to bo wan, this guy had a cruel personality and would probably not be willing to surrender. Even if he admitted defeat for a moment, with his personality, it was not surprising that he would change his mind in the end.

Lu chaoxi didn’t think much of such a situation.

If he was willing to become another Ocean Prince of Great Yan, that would be great. No, I’ll just kill him.

The most important purpose of this trip was to expand the Lu family’s control and territory of the underwater world. If that didn’t work, then hunting them down and turning them into materials for his or his sister’s breakthrough wasn’t out of the question.

It didn’t take them long to find the sea snake. Or to put it simply, there was no need to look for him, and he came to greet him.

Yang gan didn’t have the time to do that. He just wanted to set up a base and farm in the underwater world. He was cruel and bloodthirsty, and he ruled this Sea area with his strength and terrifying reputation. The sea tribes that were scattered in this area existed in a more primitive way and accepted his rule.

According to bo Wan’s information, yang gan’s way of governing his forces was very primitive.

In fact, it was indeed so.

He was very angry about bo Wan’s sudden large-scale invasion of his territory. He immediately gathered all the settlements he could rule and gathered a large number of sea tribe troops to face them.

However, this Army was completely incomparable to the underwater city Army led by bo wan, even without the underwater warships. Whether it was in terms of morale, organization, or equipment, it was the same.

Of course, the sea snake yang gan didn’t care about this. He had roamed the East Ocean for a long time, and with his personality, he had never been afraid of anything. Apart from bo wan, who was also at the materialization realm, who could make him look at her in a different light, the others were all stinky fish and rotten shrimp in his eyes.

The main reason why he also wanted to gather an Army was that bo wan had come with a group of people. If he didn’t gather an Army of the same size, it would seem like he was weaker in terms of momentum.

As soon as the two sides met, they didn’t rush to start fighting.

Lu chaoxi sat on the ‘Nautilus’ and used a spell to speak to yang gan, hoping that he would surrender. He would be treated well and become the second Ocean Prince of Great Yan.

However, the truth was that it was of no damn use.

Yang gan didn’t care about this at all.

Then there was nothing more to say.

The warships opened fire at the same time and attacked yang gan.

After being attacked, yang gan didn’t cower and instead revealed his sea snake Dharma.

However, to its surprise, it was unable to gain the upper hand at all.

It flew into a rage out of humiliation and prepared to use even more powerful strength to destroy these strange steel objects.

Bo wan laughed and revealed his true body of the octopus Dharmakaya, fighting with the sea snake.

All the other steel warships adjusted their positions, surrounded the center of the battle, and began to fire!
