Chapter 89 Robbery and Run!
Both magical artifacts were of the highest quality. After colliding violently in mid-air, they fell back into their respective hands.
"How could you possibly refine three top-grade magical artifacts?"
Zhou Liang stared at Chen Ye with a look of astonishment on his face.
With his cultivation at the ninth level of the Spirit Gathering stage, he found it quite difficult to control even a top-grade magic weapon. Yet, this person, whose cultivation was two levels lower than his, possessed three top-grade magic weapons and used them with ease. Even a cultivator at the peak of the Spirit Gathering stage probably couldn't do that!
"The reason is simple: my soul is inherently powerful."
Chen Ye sneered inwardly, then activated the Soul Suppression Technique without hesitation!
Since mastering this secret technique of the soul, Chen Ye's understanding of soul attacks has become increasingly profound.
Previously, when he activated the Soul Suppression Technique, he could only control the soul impact within a fan-shaped area, and everyone within this range would be attacked indiscriminately.
Now Chen Ye can choose his targets at will!
It's like turning a group attack into a concentrated attack, which not only greatly increases the power but also reduces the amount of spiritual energy required.
Seeing Chen Ye using one top-grade magical artifact after another, Zhou Liang began to consider retreating.
There's something wrong with this kid. Who knows if I'll die on the spot if I keep fighting?
Just as he was about to unleash a feint with the bronze bell and then flee for his life, an invisible wave suddenly swept towards him!
This shock to the soul passed through the head, just like a huge tsunami in the sea of consciousness!
Zhou Liang first felt a darkness before his eyes, as if everything around him was isolated by an inexplicable force. The wails of his clansmen on the deck and the roar of spells all disappeared at this moment!
Immediately afterwards, a sharp pain shot through his mind, and the sound of thunder echoed in his ears, as if a bolt of lightning had struck him on the head!
He stood frozen in place like a wooden statue, the intense shock to his soul rendering him unresponsive to everything around him, until a crimson sword light drew ever closer in the reflection of his pupils.
"No!!!"
Zhou Liang only had time to let out a scream.
Pfft~~
Sword flashes, head flies!
Crimson blood gushed from the severed neck. The bronze bell he had just raised, which he hadn't yet had a chance to smash against Chen Ye, also lost its light at that moment, quickly shrinking to the size of a bell and falling onto the deck.
The other members of the Zhou family around them, seeing that Zhou Liang had blocked the killing god, thought that the turning point had arrived.
But to everyone's surprise, after only two exchanges, or rather, only one exchange, Zhou Liang seemed to be under some kind of spell, standing there dumbfounded, letting the Gong family cultivator on the other side cut off his head with a single sword strike!
"Run!"
Someone shouted, and the remaining twenty or so Zhou family cultivators immediately reacted, but how could they dare to fight again? They all ran towards the stern of the ship.
Many even took out cold-avoidance pills from their storage bags and swallowed them before plunging into the sea to escape the pursuit of the Gong family cultivators.
In the blink of an eye, apart from the Zhou family members who were seriously injured and unable to escape, and Chen Ye, there wasn't a single person left on the entire cargo ship!
Although this series of fights seemed long, it actually only took a few breaths.
Gong Yi and his crew of the Mo Jiao had just boarded the Zhou family's cargo ship when they saw Chen Ye standing alone on the deck.
Limbs were scattered all around, blood flowed freely, and a headless corpse lay not far ahead. As for the Zhou family members... they had all fled...
"Boss Chen...Should we hunt down those Zhou family cultivators...?"
Gong Yi stepped forward somewhat bewildered. He felt that if Chen Ye didn't need someone to control the Mo Jiao, the crew members would be completely useless.
Chen Ye is perfectly capable of single-handedly killing a group of people...
"Alright, that Zhou family cultivator who was lured away could return at any time. Hurry up and move all the spiritual herbs on the ship back to the Ink Dragon, and put them directly into storage bags!"
Chen Ye shook his head and said that if he hadn't been worried about this, he wouldn't have rushed to fight the Zhou family's cargo ship so hastily.
"yes!"
Gong Yi realized that now was not the time to waste, so he quickly ordered the crew to take the storage bags that had been prepared and go down into the cargo hold.
In the past two months, the continuous interception of Zhou family ships has not only yielded a large amount of spirit stones and cultivation resources, but also accumulated more than two hundred storage bags on the Mo Jiao!
Although most of these storage bags are low-level magic artifacts, with a storage space of one to three cubic meters, even those with more than five cubic meters are extremely rare.
But there are just too many of them!
There are more than two hundred of them, and their loading capacity is almost comparable to that of a typical small cargo ship.
As for whether the medicinal herbs and medicines would lose their potency, we can't worry about that now. Let's move the spoils back to the Ink Dragon first!
While the crew members were busy, Chen Ye went to the headless corpse, took out his storage bag, and used his divine sense to erase the remaining marks on it.
He then quickly glanced at it and took out two communication jade talismans that were constantly flashing with spiritual light.
"If I'm not mistaken, these two jade talismans should be used to notify the Zhou family of Bizhu Island and to slay the Red Serpent, right?"
Chen Ye sneered, but unfortunately, both the Zhou family and the Red Serpent were thousands of miles away. Even a cultivator from the Secret Realm couldn't arrive in less than two or three hours!
Chen Ye crushed the two jade talismans in one go and joined the army of those collecting spoils of war.
About half an incense stick later, the more than four thousand spiritual herbs and medicines loaded on the Zhou family's cargo ship were transferred to the Ink Dragon.
Despite the large number, using storage bags to transfer them is actually quite fast; with just a thought, hundreds of plants can be packed in.
On the bow of the Mo Jiao.
Chen Ye gazed at the Zhou family's cargo ship, which was almost completely emptied, and gave an order to Gong Yi beside him.
"Activate all water control formations on the Ink Dragon and sail southwest."
Southwest is not the direction of the Gong family's Golden Wutong Island. Chen Ye is not that stupid; he would rob someone's things and not even know to take a detour.
"Captain, are we not going to destroy this cargo ship?"
Gong Yi couldn't help but ask in confusion, "According to Chen Ye's usual style of doing things, it usually means the ship is destroyed and everyone dies. Why did he leave the ship behind this time?"
Chen Ye shook his head upon hearing this and said.
"Leave this ship behind. When the Zhou family catches up, they will definitely come down to investigate, which will buy us some more time."
"hiss……"
Upon hearing this, Gong Yi couldn't help but gasp. Boss Chen's considerations were truly comprehensive; he had even taken this into account.
"set sail!"
The next moment, the Mo Jiao ship was flashing with spiritual light, and the four water control formations were activated at the same time. Like a giant whale skimming the water, it disappeared into the distant sea at the fastest speed.
