On the second day, Lu Ping and Uncle Jiu arrived at the port early, along with some Lu family cultivators and Lu Hao.
Lu Hao had two main purposes for going to the market this time. One was to sell some basic spiritual materials collected by the Lu family, such as extra spiritual grains and spiritual spring water. The second was to buy some basic materials needed by the family. For example, some talisman papers that Lu Hao had processed for Lu Ping three months ago. The Lu family did not have some basic materials and cinnabar needed to process these talisman papers, and Chongming Island did not produce these materials. Although Chongming Island had a huge terrain, it was not a continent after all, but an island, and would not produce some materials.
It is this sea that blocks the communication between the islands. Necessary material exchanges with the outside world are still needed, so these merchant ships and sea vessels are the indispensable lifeline of each island. This is why the appearance of the Thunder Dragon made the families near this sea area angry, because the Thunder Dragon began to attack ships, causing the waterway to be cut off.
"But I heard from my great-grandfather that the Thunder Dragon has been driven away, otherwise the family's foundation-building cultivators would not have returned." Lu Ping was not worried about being attacked by the Thunder Dragon.
Looking at this hundred-meter-long sea ship, it could only be compared to the treasure ship in the previous life.
"Only these ships can load so much cargo at one time. Storage bags of cultivators, even those used by foundation-building cultivators, are not that big. Those in the Jindan stage may be that big, but we can't let Jindan masters be porters, that would be so indecent!" Lu Ping thought wildly as he looked at the ship.
As the number of people coming gradually decreased until there were none left, the ship began to sail on the waterway.
As a cultivator in the late stage of Qi training, you can ride on a ship for free, but in the early stage of Qi training and ordinary people, you have to pay a spiritual stone to ride on a ship. It's a pity that unless ordinary people are lucky enough to find some valuable spiritual objects or spiritual stones formed by chance, they can only stay on an island for the rest of their lives. Of course, people can be free, but materials cannot. The profit of sea travel mainly depends on the collection of goods. Giving free rides to cultivators is mainly to let them act as free thugs. Everyone knows that it's just a matter of each taking what they need.
Lu Ping shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
Watching the ship start moving, he knew that the ship's power did not rely on mortals to drive it. After all, how much stuff could be loaded if the living space saved by mortals was used?
The power of a ship mainly relies on two parts. One is to push forward by the formation on the ship, and the second is to move forward through the water veins. When relying on the water veins, activating the formation can achieve twice the result with half the effort.
This is also the reason why even though the Thunder Dragon was driven away, the waterway is still not smooth, because the water veins are blocked. If the formation is used to propel forward at this time, the cost of spirit stones spent will even be more than what is earned from this trip.
No one wants to do something that loses money.
Lu Ping felt the wind on the sea and felt happy. After all, he would have a big harvest. This feeling of longing and expectation made Lu Ping even happier.
Unfortunately, the beauty is only temporary . Lu Ping saw a thick vortex of water suddenly rolled up on the calm sea. The water column rushed down from top to bottom with great momentum. There were four of them rushing around the ship. If no one resisted, the ship would be destroyed and everyone would die. Where could people escape on the vast sea?
But before the water column approached the ship, a "ding ding ding" sound was heard, and the protective formation on the ship was instantly activated.
Then the red-bearded foundation-building monk who was in charge of the ship flew out of the secret room in the cabin and became furious when he saw someone attacking the ship.
"How dare you, a bastard, attack the ship of my Chiyan family."
He immediately used the flame magic, and four fire dragons sprang out from his hands, and then flew above the water column. Suddenly, a "sizzle" and "sizzle" sound broke out between the two, and large groups of water mist immediately appeared in patches, making the nearby sea misty in an instant, and everything became blurred.
When the red-bearded man saw that the water column was broken and the ship was temporarily safe, he immediately signaled to the others on the ship to activate the formation and leave quickly.
The red-bearded man looked at the turbulent sea and said, "Fellow Daoists from the Lu family, why don't you take action? Aren't you afraid that the Thunder Dragon will escape again?"
When Lu Ping heard this, his face changed drastically, and he thought, "They have become the bait used by the Chi Yan family to lure out the Thunder Dragon."
But when he heard that it was actually planned by his Lu family, he was stunned for a moment, "Why? Aren't you afraid that something might happen to the family members? The family steward Lu Hao is here too, carrying supplies, aren't you afraid of anything happening? You know, last time three foundation-building cultivators were all saved by this thunder dragon."
As if in response to Lu Ping's thoughts, three black figures appeared from the white mist with a "whoosh". Lu Ping saw that they were all foundation-building cultivators of the Lu family. One of them was Lu Xuanhai, a cultivator who had just returned from the Lu family.
The appearance of the three people caused a change in the situation. Lu Xuanhai took out two talismans and fired them. The spiritual light shot out fell on the sea, and the sea surface was frozen instantly. However, as soon as the sea surface was frozen, dark clouds and lightning swept in, covering the sky and the sun. The wind direction on the sea surface changed, from calm to turbulent. A lightning bolt struck the frozen sea surface, and the ice surface was torn apart instantly. However, this little time was enough for Lu Xuanhai to activate the spiritual talisman shot under the sea surface. The sea water rolled up to form a black vortex, swallowing the light like a black hole. In the place covered, a black and purple snake-like monster with huge scales appeared in front of everyone.
This beast is like a snake but not a snake. It is huge, about fifteen meters long, but its whole body is covered with a layer of lightning, its eyes are full of blood, and there are black vortices around it, making it look extremely strange.
Seeing the monster appear, the red-bearded man gritted his teeth and said , "Thunder Dragon!"
His face revealed an expression of both surprise and joy.
Seeing the boat going farther and farther away, not to mention the confused monks on the boat, Lu Ping and Uncle Jiu looked at each other and didn't understand what was going on. Why was Lei Jiao here?
The foundation-building cultivator naturally would not explain clearly to the people on the boat at this time, because the binding force of the whirlpool on the sea was gradually decreasing, and the trapped monsters were roaring and preparing to escape.
Seeing this, the red-bearded man became a little anxious. If the thunder dragon escaped this time, wouldn't his Chiyan family have wasted their efforts? So he shouted loudly, "Daoyou Lu Xuanyuan, if you don't take action now, when will you take action?"
As soon as the words fell,
Bursts of dull explosions came from beneath the sea, as if the world had turned upside down. The dark clouds that had retreated slightly from the sea surface instantly turned into pitch-black clouds, and then deafening thunder roared from under the sea.
The seawater was stirred and rolled again in an instant, and the seawater where the ship was originally located was mixed with some ice and began to surge. At first, it was relatively slow, and the surge of the waves was not obvious. After just a few blinks of an eye, the sea tore off its subtle disguise, and suddenly boiled, and the waves rolled higher and higher.
As the wave expanded, Lei Jiao finally understood what had happened, howled angrily, and struggled continuously, but unfortunately the vortex strengthened again.
At this moment, a ray of lightning struck the Thunder Dragon, and with a "pop", the Thunder Dragon's body trembled slightly.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
The sound seemed to remind the foundation-building monks present, and they all started to attack. Three thin lines shot from the hands of the foundation-building monks to the neck, waist, and tail of the thunder dragon, and instantly wrapped around a large part of the thunder dragon's body. The thin lines were very few when they were first launched, but more and more of them wrapped around the thunder dragon.
"arrest",
"ban"
"bundle"
The Lu family's foundation-building cultivator uttered the true words from his mouth, and then the number of silk threads increased rapidly, instantly wrapping up the thunder dragon below the head.
Lei Jiao looked at himself being tied up, and the blood-red eyes on both sides of his head flashed a fierce light. He opened his mouth and gathered a ball of flashing lightning, which rushed straight towards the Lu family.
"Thunder Bomb"
"You beast! You're looking for death!"
The red-bearded man was surprised to see that the Lu family had really restrained the Thunder Dragon. Then he became furious when he saw the Thunder Dragon use the Thunder Bomb to attack.
He knew that casting the Soul Locking Rope required a huge amount of mana, and they had no time to resist, so he immediately threw out a shield to block the main summoned thunder bombs for the three members of the Lu family.
"just"
"bite"
Seeing that the thunder bomb was blocked, Lu Xuanhai breathed a sigh of relief and put the talisman paper in his left hand back. He accelerated the output of mana to activate the soul-locking rope.
Then he said to the red-bearded sturdy man, "Daoist Chi Mingheng, please act quickly. We can't control it for long."
The red-bearded sturdy man did not hesitate and immediately activated his magic weapon, gathering his magic power to prepare for a big attack.
