The Tong Xuanming Divine Elixer, a marvel capable of helping one bypass the Peering Divinity realm and directly ascend to the Divine Illumination realm.
Unfortunately, this special elixir served as a system reward had no effect on Chu Yuan.
"Though it doesn't affect me, I can still grant it to my subordinates. Lu Qianfu's strength has been struggling to keep up with the rapidly growing Divine Martial Army, but if I grant him the Tong Xuanming Divine Elixer and he achieves Divine Illumination, he will be fully capable to lead the great army."
Chu Yuan was not disappointed.
"Your Majesty is planning to set sail!" said Zhou Zhong solemnly. "I have sent people before, but even our ships failed to make it through the stormy sea, and these storms can last for a substantial amount of time..."
"Don't worry about that. I have ships at my disposal."
.....
The vast sea was incredibly gloomy due to the raging storms and the onslaught of tsunamis over recent days. The sky was filled with thick dark clouds. Instead of a bright and clear sea, what met the eye was a brooding expanse.
Despite these conditions, many martial arts masters were risking their lives to set out to sea.
This is because tsunamis could sometimes stir up hidden treasures from the seabed.
"This... this is Your Majesty's ship! It's not just a ship, it more like a fortress on the sea!"
Chu Yuan released three Armored Flying Boats from his System Space, the metallic warships nearly blinded Zhou Zhong. He had lived for over a hundred years and had never seen such terrifying warships before.
"This is the deep-rooted strength of Dawu," Zhou Zhong muttered to himself.
"Hurry, hurry, get on the ship. Today, His Majesty wants to go to sea to investigate the source of this tsunami!"
Then, under the urging, a hundred thousand soldiers wearing black-water armors were boarded onto the three Armored Flying Boats in groups.
These one hundred thousand naval soldiers were all recently recruited and trained by Chu Yuan within one or two months. Most of them were from the Southwest province. After all, people here lived by the sea and were very familiar with naval battles.
"Our objective this time is to find the source of the tsunami."
The three Armored Flying Boats were launched, their speed far exceeding that of ordinary ships. What's more, they started very smoothly without a hint of shake, despite their massive size, it felt as if they were moving on flat ground.
Chu Yuan stood at the bow of the ship, surrounded by the fast retreating sea view.
"Bad news, Your Majesty, I have heard of Tiger Shark Island. They are a group of extremely cruel and evil pirates. They have nine leaders, among whom are those in the Divine Illumination realm. They've even wiped out a two-star marine Imperial Dynasty before, and countless one-star forces!"
"So there's a Divine Illumination practitioner among a group of pirates. No wonder they're so arrogant," said Chu Yuan casually.
He looked over.
These pirates yelled at Chu Yuan and the others. Their ships were much smaller compared to the Armored Flying Boat, but they're extremely agile and fast. They leveraged their speed to encircle the Flying Boat and cause chaos.
This group of pirates spent their whole lives at sea, looting and robbing, doing all kinds of evil things. They were very familiar with naval battles and extremely arrogant.
"You're unlucky to meet me," Chu Yuan said indifferently. "Ascend."
Suddenly, the three Armored Flying Boats rose into the air under the shocked gaze of the pirates from Tiger Shark Island.
"It's actually flying!" The pirates stared in disbelief.
"Begin bombing."
Chu Yuan didn't even bother to banter with them.
Immediately, thousands of cannon barrels rose from the three Armored Flying Boats, and thousands of energy cannonballs bombarded indiscriminately, enveloping the surrounding sea area in an indiscriminate bombardment.
To note, the Armored Flying Boat was equipped with exceptionally robust cannon barrels, which were slightly more powerful than divine machine artillery, and only somewhat less than divine machine heavy artillery.
After several rounds of fire, all of the pirates' ships were destroyed, and a large number of pirates were killed. Only a few Peering Divinity experts and a small number of Divine Abilities experts survived, albeit severely injured from the sudden bombardment.
"Dawu? What kind of power is Dawu?" The leading Peering Divinity expert exclaimed in fear. "You dare to attack Tiger Shark Island!"
"Fire again!"
Chu Yuan spat out two cold words.
The three battleships, high above, rotated their thousands of cannon barrels automatically, aiming at the remaining pirates.
Boom! Suddenly, thousands of hot rays of light passed through their bodies, turning them completely to ashes.
"Push to full speed, we should reach the volcanic eruption site within half an hour."
Chu Yuan issued an order and the Armored Flying Boat sped towards its destination.
