No words were spoken that night.
The night faded away, the morning light came, and the red clouds in the sky seemed to burn from the eastern horizon like wildfire. In the only waterway in the Windless Canyon that was open to the outside world, layers of restrictions were slowly opened, and various mechanisms, formations and ambushes were slowly withdrawn. One by one, the sea ships and flying boats raised their sails and left the dock amid shouts.
The war is coming, and these are the most chaotic and worst years.
But for these merchants, this is the most wonderful time. All resources are rising in price. The precious high-quality and top-quality spiritual crystals are becoming as cheap as gravel. The prices of various materials, elixirs, spiritual weapons, and spiritual tools are soaring!
Before the Celestial Clan attacks, make a few more trips with some effort, and you will never have to worry about food and drink for the rest of your life.
If you can place a few large orders, not only will you be able to live a life without worries, but it will also provide enough resources for the cultivation of more than a dozen generations of your descendants. It may even lay the foundation for a large family to become wealthy.
"It's a good day today!" The first ship that left the dock was five hundred feet long and made entirely of solid seawood. Behind it, thirty ships of the same size and flying the same flags were lined up in a row.
The ship owner stood at the bow, looking at the blue sky with a smile, and stroking the wooden railing in front of him with his hands with satisfaction.
This ship is the result of his lifelong hard work.
It was incomparable to those giant ships that were thousands of feet long, and even more so to those flying boats that could fly into the air. But as a grassroots cultivator who started from humble beginnings, he was already satisfied to have accumulated 31 sea vessels in just a few hundred years!
Take advantage of this battle to run a few more times, and try your best to run a few more times!
When he had saved enough money, he would go to the edge of the sixth island circle in his hometown, buy an island, lay down roots, and establish a family.
Turning around, looking at the boys busying around on the high deck, the ship owner smiled even more broadly - the brothers and children have followed him through wind and rain for hundreds of years, and many of them still haven't found a stable wife to start a family.
It's time to build a solid foundation and lay a solid base so that everyone can live a peaceful and stable life.
Being a merchant at sea is indeed hard work. The strong winds and waves are one thing, but the most terrible things are the sirens, sea monsters, bandits, pirates, and those colleagues who are so excited about the prey that they suddenly kill.
It's time to live a peaceful life. The shipowner touched the hideous scar on his chest that almost cut his body in half, shook his head and smiled bitterly - he almost didn't survive the serious injury three years ago, so he should end his job as a sea trader as soon as possible.
A little kid standing on the highest watchtower suddenly screamed and jumped around like he had seen a ghost.
The fleet had passed through the long waterway and was about to enter the open sea of the Windless Canyon. The ship owner glared at the brat angrily and turned to look towards the open sea.
It was early in the morning, the sun had only just shown its face, and this was still the territory of the Windless Canyon. Why were they shouting so loudly? Could it be that someone else dared to make trouble in the territory of the Windless Canyon?
The sea was filled with thick fog, and the white fog and the red glow in the sky reflected each other from a distance. The white fog was dyed red by the red light shining through the red glow, and at first glance it looked like a sea of blood.
Before the ship owner could see what was on the sea, a sharp horn sounded from the towering cliffs on both sides of the waterway. The sharp and rapid horn sounded like dense drum beats, "boom boom boom" bombarding his heart, frightening the ship owner so much that his whole body twitched, his heart beat violently, and his face suddenly turned red.
This is the police signal!
It is a warning sign that the Windless Canyon has encountered a powerful enemy!
This is the highest level of warning signal that will be used not only when encountering a powerful enemy, but also a strong enemy that may threaten the survival of Windless Canyon!
A powerful enemy is coming from the sea, with terrifying power to destroy the Windless Canyon!
"Click, click, click, click." The sound of the mechanism operating was like popping beans. The ship owner, who had a red face, was suddenly frightened out of his wits and his face turned pale.
Behind their fleet, on both sides of the waterway they had just passed, on the towering cliffs, two giant gates that were several miles thick and hundreds of miles high were sliding out from the cliffs at a rapid speed.
The water below the gate was rolling. The gate went straight into the seabed. The movement of the gate set off a huge undercurrent, startling countless fish and jumping restlessly on the sea surface. The huge rune marks on the gate kept lighting up, emitting a dazzling halo.
The two gates were still several miles apart, but the strong light emitted by them had merged into one, forming a light curtain that blocked the fleet's retreat.
"No!" the ship owner screamed at the top of his lungs.
This is the outermost dragon-breaking gate of the Windless Canyon waterway. Unlike the various mechanisms and formations in the waterway, the dragon-breaking gate will only be activated when a strong enemy invades. Since the Windless Canyon formed a ruling order headed by the five major families, this dragon-breaking gate has been closed three times in total!
The three times that the Dragon-Breaking Gate was closed, there were terrible and powerful enemies attacking!
The Dragon-Breaking Gate was never lost. All the powerful enemies that attacked were beaten to a bloody pulp in front of the Dragon-Breaking Gate. After exhausting all their strength, they were completely wiped out by the counterattack of the Windless Canyon.
The ship owner didn't care about the glorious history of Broken Dragon Gate. What horrified him was that their retreat was cut off and they were trapped outside the Windless Canyon!
'Boom, boom, boom'!
The sound of low war drums came from the sea, and the light blood-colored sea mist was suddenly blown away by a hurricane.
One after another, huge warships made of metal appeared on the sea, the shortest of which was three thousand feet long and a hundred feet high. In front of these terrifying warships, the shipowner's ships were like little rabbits in front of a hungry tiger, small and weak, without any resistance.
Countless heavily armored Celestial Clan warriors stood in a neat row on the huge warships, laughing "hehe", "hehe", and "haha". Countless Celestial Clan warriors were at least at the peak of the Life-Lining Realm. Their laughter turned into a huge wave of sound that roared across the sea, shaking the blood of the ship owners and causing severe damage to their internal organs.
"Oh my god! How could the evil demon of the Celestial Clan appear here?"
The shipowner and all his sailors and men wailed at the same time. They stood on the deck like zombies, having completely lost the courage to resist.
A square sea city composed of eight thousand giant metal ships, with a side length of three hundred miles, slowly floated towards the Windless Canyon.
Above this huge sea city, there is a floating mountain with dazzling divine light.
Huo Xuan, Jin Li of the Jin clan, Shui Yin of the Shui clan, three outstanding young masters of the Five Elements Department of the Celestial Clan, stood in a row on the edge of the floating mountain, looking at the dozens of sea ships that were trapped outside the Dragon Breaking Gate with sneer.
