The Prodigies War

Chapter 1783: The Vastness of the Ancient Nebula Road

With a loud roar, a boundary ship as huge as a floating land tore through the sky and soared beyond the sky.

“They left…”

On the land, countless cultivators of the Tianqu World watched on in a daze, emotions roiling inside them.

Lin Daoyuan!

This young man of a mysterious background broke through the sky of Tianqu World like a meteor and shook the entire world.

Everyone knew that this name would go down in history, as if it was engraved in the Tianqu World.

“Let’s go.” Nan Leipeng exhaled.

He knew that when Nan Qiu left with Lin Xun, the fate of the Musang Tribe had silently changed.

In the future, even if the Musang Tribe declined in power, as long as Nan Qiu was around, it had hope of being resurrected!

The boundary ship was enormous with pavilions, terraces, bridges and running water. It was like a small city of its own.

At the core of the boundary ship was a huge dao rune array producing a tremendous amount of power like a furnace to drive the boundary ship through the air.

In the center of the dao rune array was a heap of dao crystals like a little hill. They were all high-grade dao crystals and were the source of power to operate the boundary ship.

Lin Xun stood in front of the dao rune array, holding up a round bronze plate in his hand, on which were engraved with flowers, birds, insects, and fish. It projected the air routes of the starry sky.

This was a chart of the air routes that led to the Great Yu World.

“This ship is indeed not something that ordinary forces would have...”

After a pause, Lin Xun withdrew his gaze and came to that conclusion.

To construct a boundary ship required tons of divine materials alone.

Not to mention that countless dao rune arrays had to be inscribed in the inside and outside of the ship body. Even a dao rune master with amazing skills would need at least one year to complete this tedious and complicated task.

Once the boundary ship was successfully built, each flight consumed a tremendous amount of dao crystals, which was extremely costly. No ordinary force would be able to afford it.

Dao crystals were also known as great dao crystals and they contained abundant and pure divine aeth qi, which made them an essential item to Big Saints for their cultivation.

Even one thumb-sized dao crystal was astonishingly valuable. Ten dao crystals of that size could be exchanged for a sprig of precious divine herbs!

A boundary ship consumed at least thousands of dao crystals on every flight, with the longer the distance, the more dao crystals it used up.

For example, the flight from the Tianqu World to the Great Yu World would need to consume at least four thousand high-great dao crystals!

“You guys expended so much to drive a boundary ship here to a little world like Tianqu World, is it just to recruit disciples?” asked Lin Xun.

Standing next to him was a middle-aged man in a gray robe. He was called Fu Tong. Just like Ma Taizhen and Yu Yunhe, he was fortunate enough to escape death in the Tianqu World.

“Of course not.”

Fu Tong said expressionlessly, as if he had resigned to his fate. “Before we came to the Tianqu World, we had already been to other nine small worlds and collected eight thousand pounds of Jade Spiral Golden Silk, a specialty of Yunfang World, three hundreds pounds of Gale Jade Essence, a specialty of Yuxia World, and fifty pairs of Black Ringed Pheasant Feather, a specialty of the Luokong World…”

He listed all sorts of divine materials, divine medicines, and mineral resources.

Finally, he explained, “If these goods are brought back to the Great Yu World, they can be sold at ten or even one hundred times of the usual price. The dao crystals consumed by the boundary ship are just a drop in the bucket.”

Fu Tong’s expression turned complicated. “Originally, we planned to collect a batch of divine herbs in the Tianqu World called Purple Fly Mystic Grass, but...”

He did not finish his sentence, but his meaning was obvious.

Lin Xun gave a half smile. “Does that mean you are blaming me for ruining your big business?”

Fu Tong frantically shook his head, denying it.

Lin Xun did not mind. He was more focused about the value of a boundary ship.

In the Ancient Nebula Road, the ownership of a boundary ship was equivalent to having the ability to travel through the starry sky and enter other worlds, where they could trade for other materials and supplies and earn an unimaginable fortune!

The Ancient Nebula Road was extremely vast with countless worlds.

The Great Yu World alone controlled more than a dozen small worlds, such as the Tianqu World, and possessed endless riches. It was impossible for its strongest sect to not be wealthy.

Lin Xun knew that the starry sky was full of unimaginable dangers, therefore almost no one below the Emperor Stage dared to fly in it.

The boundary ship became a tool for cultivators from different worlds to travel through the starry sky.

However, even a boundary ship had to follow along a fixed route in the starry sky. Once it deviated from the route, it could very easily get lost in the starry sky and run into disaster.

Even when flying along a fixed route, dangers were still a common occurrence, such as turbulence in the starry sky and starry sky monsters...

“It seems like I will need to craft a boundary ship in the future...” Lin Xun thought.

Without a boundary ship, he felt like he had lost the power to roam the Ancient Nebula Road. Once trapped in a certain world, it would be very difficult to leave.

Rumble!

Suddenly, the boundary ship rumbled and roared into the starry sky.

Lin Xun raised his head and was greeted by billions of twinkling stars. The boundless galaxy was spinning and spectacular nebulas rotated one after another.

Occasionally, he saw a cluster of magnifying comets roaring past, like fireworks blooming beautifully in the starry sky.

This was the true Ancient Nebula Road!

Lin Xun marveled.

……

“Fellow cultivator, I want to understand something.”

In an old-fashioned hall on the boundary ship, Lin Xun was sitting on the ground, looking at Ma Taizhen who was not far away.

This Saint-King from the Alchemy Dao Sect had a sullen look on his face and his eyes were filled with deep hatred.

He did not respond.

Lin Xun smiled slightly. “If you don’t cooperate with me, I will destroy your cultivation and throw you out of this ship.”

Ma Taizhen went stiff and snorted coldly, “You can try!”

Lin Xun was never one who liked to waste his breath. He immediately got up, marched over to Ma Taizhen and looked down at him.

“Even if you die, there’s still Yu Yunhe and Fu Tong. Even if they are as uncooperative as you, I can still find out what I want to know when we reach the Great Yu World. Now, are you sure you want to continue to be stubborn?”

His voice was incredibly calm, but it sent chills down Ma TaiZhen.

He was silent for a moment and finally nodded reluctantly.

“I can give you dignity, but you must cooperate with me.

Lin Xun returned to his seat and asked, “My first question is where is the Xuanji Dao Sect?”

“Xuanji Dao Sect?”

Ma Taizhen cast a glance at Lin Xun before he answered, “In the Great Primordial Chaos World of the Central Star Field. That’s the true core area of ​​the Ancient Nebula Road. The Great Six Courts and Great Ten Battle Clans as well as other top forces are all established there.”

The Ancient Nebula Road was boundlessly vast.

However, only the Central Star Field was regarded as the oldest and most prosperous sacred cultivation place in the Ancient Nebula Road. It had existed since ancient times, and its great dao had been standing strong for eternity!

The Great Primordial Chaos World was located in the Central Star Field, and it was also called the number one world in the starry sky!

Besides the Central Star Field, the Nine Great Star Fields and the thirty-three great worlds were also well-known.

For example, the Great Yu World was located in the Ziheng Star Field, one of the Nine Great Star Fields, and it was one of the many great worlds in this star field.

Lin Xun was a little astonished to learn this.

How big was the Ancient Nebula Road?

Before this, he only had a vague idea in his mind, but now he realized how vast the Ancient Nebula Road was!

The Great Yu World encompassed dozens of little worlds.

But the Great Yu World was just one of the many great worlds in the Ziheng Star Field, which was only one of the Nine Great Star Fields...

This also meant that if Lin Xun wanted to go to Xuanji Dao Sect in the future, he had to first leave the Great Yu World, leave the Ziheng Star Field, then cross the vast starry sky and reach the Central Star Field before he could enter the Great Primordial Chaos World where the Xuanji Dao Sect was located!

This was no doubt going to be an unimaginably long journey.

“Second question, where is the ancestral land of the True Dragon Lineage?” asked Lin Xun.

Ma Taizhen’s pupils shrank. “The True Dragon Lineage is one of the most mysterious ancient clans in the Ancient Nebula Road. Legend has it that their clansmen reside in a place called the True Dragon World, but as to where it is located exactly, only a very small number of ancient orthodoxies would know.”

Lin Xun frowned and asked, “Does anyone in the Great Yu World know more information about the True Dragon World?”

Ma Taizhen shook his head. “Let alone the Great Yu World, even the strongest forces in the Ziheng Star Field would likely know nothing. If you want to find out more about the True Dragon World, then perhaps you will have to go to the Great Primordial Chaos World in the Central Star Field.”

Lin Xun looked surprised. He did not think that the True Dragon Lineage was so mysterious.

After a thought, he asked, “Now the third question, do you know about the Ancient Wasteland Alliance?”

The golden cicada youth had told Lin Xun about the Ancient Wasteland Alliance back when he had brought Zhao Jingxuan’s parents and some terrifying creatures to the Ancient Nebula Road.

Ma Taizhen looked visibly taken aback, then he shook his head. “There are countless forces in the Ancient Nebula Road. I have been cultivating in the Great Yu World all my life and I have never heard of the Ancient Wasteland Alliance.”

Lin Xun was not surprised by his answer. He continued to question him, “Where is the Ancient Nebula Underworld? For example, the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect and the Earth Treasury Realm?”

Ma Taizhen went stiff and he shook his head again. “Almost every cultivator in the Ancient Nebula Road knows about the existence of the underworld, but very few people can know where it is.”

Lin Xun asked more questions, but Ma Taizhen knew very little and could not answer them.

This made Lin Xun realize that the Great Yu World might be a big world, but it was not the most important or core place of the Ancient Nebula Road.

It seemed like he had to explore the Central Star Field himself if he wanted to know more.

“The Central Star Field, the Great Primordial Chaos World, the Great Six Courts, the Great Ten Battle Clans...and even the Xuanji Dao Sect are there...It seems like I must make a trip there in the future...”

While Lin Xun contemplated, the boundary ship swayed violently like it ran into a strong resistance force.
