Chapter 395 – Boat Protection Formation
Chapter 395 – Boat Protection Formation
Cheng Qingjia closed his eyes, he only hated that his qualifications were too mediocre, and he had used so many resources to reach the late stage of Foundation Establishment.
If he has Zhan two miss that kind of talent, by Penglai Immortal Island, and how will fall to today’s field ……
Cheng Qi was not the only one with a fluttering mind, the other Cheng family members besides Xu Chuniang were similarly moved to persuade Cheng Qingjia.
Almost as soon as the banquet was over, these people couldn’t wait to find him, and lobbied him with emotion and reason.
“It’s a blessing for you that Third Miss can take a liking to you.”
“With Second Miss Zhan around, the Zhan family will still be able to prosper for at least nearly a thousand years. This is good for you, for the family.”
“My Cheng family also produced a heavenly pride in its early years, worshipping at Penglai Immortal Island. But that was already more than a thousand years ago……. The Cheng Family is now in decline and not as good as it was back then.”
Even his seventh uncle, who had watched him grow up, told him to think more about the family.
After the Cheng family left, Cheng Qingjia’s heart was both entangled and bitter, and he couldn’t even meditate.
After tossing and turning until late at night, he simply ran to the end of the boat to get some air, only to meet Xu Chuniang there.
He was slightly stunned, “Fellow Daoist Xu?”
Speaking of which, she was the only person today who hadn’t tried to convince him to climb the tree of the Zhan family.
Xu Chuniang had noticed when he first appeared, and upon hearing this, she opened her eyes with a slight nod before closing them.
Seeing this, Cheng Qingjia silently swallowed his stomach full of confiding desires.
It was only in these few months that Daoist Xu became the Cheng family’s guest secretary.
She stayed in the Book Depository all day, and although the two had met a few times, there was no deeper friendship.
The formation on the cloud boat is always on, so standing at the end of the boat, still can’t feel a trace of wind.
Cheng Qingjia stood for a while, his eyes unconsciously fell to the figure sitting on the plate, the mood suddenly quiet.
Xu Chuniang saw that he had no intention of leaving, and finally opened her eyes, “Is there anything else for fellow Daoist Cheng?”
The formations on this cloud boat were very profound, she had never seen them before, so she purposely looked for a secluded place to observe them carefully, to see if she could discern anything.
Could it be that this Cheng Qingjia, too, had studied formations?
Cheng Qingjia is unaware of what the other side of the heart, he knew that he should leave, but his feet seem to be rooted like not moving the slightest bit.
Chest suppressed for a long time of bitterness, also seems to have found a window to vent.
“How does Xu Daoyou think …… the Zhan family is strong?”
Zhan family?
Xu Chuniang thought seriously for a moment, as the number one family of the five islands of the Southern Line, the strength of the Zhan Family was undoubted.
The Zhan family sat on the coral island with the most resources, and there were no less than twenty Jindan cultivators in the clan, with a YuanYing cultivator in attendance.
The second Miss Zhan, who has been enrolled in Penglai Immortal Island since she was young, is a deservedly proud young woman with a bright future ahead of her.
Its overall strength compared to Mixed Yuan City, but also two points stronger.
“The Zhan family is good.”
Cheng Qingjia was surprised, “Just good?”
Xu Chuniang came from a nameless island, but was only a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator, in her eyes, the Zhan family should be as lofty as a mountain.
But listening to her tone, the Zhan family was strong, but it seemed to be just that.
“Or else?”
Xu Chuniang threw him a puzzled glance, she vaguely felt as if he hadn’t come to Boat Tail because he was interested in formations.
Cheng Qingjia took a deep breath, “So …… what do you think of the Cheng family?”
After asking this sentence, he was apprehensive in his heart. He knew that the Cheng family could not be compared to the Zhan family, but he still wanted to hear her opinion.
“For the Cheng Family to be able to pass on for two thousand years, it also has its own unique features.”
When Xu Chuniang said this, she suddenly remembered a bone book she had read in the hidden scripture pavilion.
“In your Cheng Family’s ancestry, it seems that there was once a genius cultivator who similarly worshipped Penglai Immortal Island.”
Thinking of that ancestor, Cheng Qingjia’s face was both proud and lost.
“He worshipped in Penglai at the age of ten, and similarly successfully formed the Dan at less than a hundred years old. But shortly after he formed the dan, he unfortunately died during a clan mission.”
Back then, the Cheng Family was considered to be in full bloom in these five islands of the Southern Line.
However, since that ancestor’s accidental fall, the Cheng Family has gone downhill.
“Legend has it that the reason why the three immortal islands of Penglai, Fangzhang, and Yingzhou are in a supreme position is because there are always Harmonized God cultivators sitting on the immortal islands, do you know if that’s true or not?”
Xu Chuniang recalled the discussion of the Zhan family’s cultivators at the feast and suddenly asked.
Cheng Qingjia froze and spoke with some hesitation.
“I’ve heard my grandfather say that after a YuanYing cultivator breaks through to Transformation, in a short period of a few years, or in a long period of a few decades, he will eventually leave this realm.
But the three immortal islands of Penglai, Fangzhang, and Yingzhou have a long heritage, and their magical abilities and means are unimaginable to ordinary people, so perhaps the rumors are true.”
Xu Chuniang nodded, a great power like the three Immortal Islands would never know nothing about the Dead Sea and the five northwestern sects.
It was just a pity that other than the island cultivators, few people knew the exact location of the three immortal islands.
If an ordinary person wanted to find them, it would be difficult to exhaust a lifetime.
If one wanted to poke around the Dead Sea and the five northwestern clans, they still had to travel to Pingfeng Island before making any plans.
She would manage to go there once the Hunting Competition was over.
Cheng Qingjia was gone.
He was filled with sadness when he came, but left with a wave of relief.
The Zhan family was strong, but his Cheng family’s ancestors had also been glorious. He would cultivate hard and find a way to restore the family’s former glory.
Xu Chuniang closed her eyes and continued to observe the formation.
The cloud boat traveled on the sea for a few days in a row, no matter how rough the waves were outside, the cloud boat was always as stable as flat ground, and even the slightest shaking couldn’t be sensed.
The third floor of the cloud boat was Zhan Luo’s private domain. Without her permission, no one was allowed to set foot on it.
At this moment, on the third floor of the cloud boat, besides Zhan Luo, only the Jindan cultivator surnamed Zhao and the Zhan family elder who was deeply trusted by her were present.
She reached for the pot and poured herself a cup of spirit wine, “Uncle Zhao, is she still at the end of the boat?”
Zhao Hucheng nodded, “In these four days, that female cultivator named Xu Chuniang has stayed at the stern of the boat without moving, she should be a formation master and I’m afraid that her formation attainments are not weak.”
A hint of surprise appeared on Zhan Luo’s face, the boat protection array on this cloud boat had two third grade arrays as its core and incorporated ten second grade arrays, its finesse and complexity could be seen.
The boat protection array enveloped the entire cloud boat, and when the array was opened, it would naturally reveal some of the rules of operation.
Only a formation master, and at least a second grade formation master, would be able to capture some traces.
Cheng family is not going downhill for a long time, in the end, from where to recruit such a formation master, there is not weak cultivation?
Zhao Hu Cheng did not say anything, and the old man behind Zhan Luo opened his mouth and spoke out the news he had inquired about.
“She comes from a nameless island, and ten months ago, she had saved a Cheng Family junior at sea, and then registered her identity when she first landed on Nansha Island. She became the Cheng Family’s guest secretary five months ago, and has been staying in the Cheng Family’s Book Pavilion ever since.”
Zhan Luo nodded slightly, this Xu Chuniang should have gotten some chance to become a Formation Master and have today’s cultivation.
Since she was only a cultivator from a nameless island, she thought that it should not affect her plans.
