Modern World's Martial Dao Human Immortal-Chapter 231 - 221: Escape

"Easy! It’s so easy!"

"Hahaha, back then when people from Qingfeng Courtyard and Divine Might Academy talked about fighting the cultivators from the Xuanming Sect, they said it was as easy as catching frogs, and now we can enjoy this same thrilling ease of slicing through them like cutting vegetables."

"The powerful Great Sun Sword Sect... Twenty years ago, such a scene was unthinkable... You don’t know how desperate we were when we got a battle record of 7:40 during that drill back then! But now... we have not only defeated the Great Sun Sword Sect several times, but we have also captured two of their Patrol Heaven Warships, it’s simply... unimaginable!"

"Twenty-five years ago, I posted on the Void Divine Realm, hoping that after twenty-five years, the Nine Cauldrons Sect would have at least one Patrol Heaven Warship and four elite Battle Courtyards equipped with superior grade treasures. At that time, everyone laughed at me, saying I was daydreaming, but now, we have not just three Patrol Heaven Warships, but also seven elite Battle Courtyards. Each sword cultivator in these seven elite academies is using third... even fourth generation superior grade treasures! It’s so much better than the lavish scene I imagined in that post!"

One sword cultivator after another landed on the Patrol Heaven Warship.

Each of them was filled with deep emotions.

Shortly after these sword cultivators arrived at the warship, a large number of cultivators came from afar.

These cultivators were primarily high-rank sword cultivators.

Their duty was to take over this Patrol Heaven Warship and pilot it back to the Third Patrol Heaven Research Institute for further research.

And with the arrival of the high-rank sword cultivators, Alkaid also stepped back onto this warship.

"A third-generation Patrol Heaven Warship? It feels a bit inferior compared to the one from the Limitless Star Palace."

Alkaid recalled the differences between the two warships and made an objective evaluation.

"Compared to the Great Sun Sword Sect, the Limitless Star Palace’s technology is a bit more advanced in all aspects; otherwise, they wouldn’t still be building fourth-generation warships while others have only just made breakthroughs with third-generation technology, now launching just two such warships."

Tang Fenghua explained with a smile on his face.

As Li Qingshan’s disciple and a fourth-rank Dharma Phase Cultivator, he had access to more information than other great cultivators.

"Right, but having it’s better than not having at all. Given the technology we currently have in our hands, as long as we fully grasp the various layouts on this warship, crafting a more advanced third-generation Patrol Heaven Warship is just a matter of time."

Alkaid responded.

Tang Fenghua listened and glanced at Alkaid.

To him, the actual way to phrase it should not be "the technology we currently have", but rather...

"The technology I possess."

He thought silently.

However, these weren’t words he would actually say out loud.

Although he, including many other high-ranking officials, knew that not to mention creating third-generation Patrol Heaven Warships, even the construction of the second-generation ships was strongly attributed to Alkaid. But since Alkaid was willing to share the credit with other members of the Third Patrol Heaven Research Institute, they wouldn’t stop him.

Saying too much would be detrimental to unity.

Alkaid divided his attention and took a "look" at the Qingfeng Courtyard and Divine Might Academy, currently repelling enemies at the sect entrance, and said, "Take this warship back. I will lead the Sea Fortification Courtyard to the Eastern Sea for support. This time, we will completely annihilate the three elite academies of the Great Sun Sword Sect and eradicate their influence in the Eastern Sea!"

"Let others handle the escort of the Patrol Heaven Warship. I will go with you to meet the enemy!"

Tang Fenghua said, adding, "Alkaid Hall Master, you wouldn’t suspect that someone could sneak it away right under your nose, would you?"

Alkaid heard this and smiled, affirming his saying.

Still, to be safe, he left Bai Lu and a dozen other great cultivators to safeguard the Patrol Heaven Warship.

He then led over a hundred and sixty people, directly leaving the Nine Heavens Domain and heading to the battlefield located in the East Sea Archipelago.

...

East Sea Archipelago.

Wanting to invade the homeland of the Nine Cauldrons Sect, the elite Shenfeng Academy, Shenmu Academy, and Shenshan Academy were directly blocked by Qingfeng Courtyard and Divine Might Academy.

In this battle, the Qingfeng Courtyard and Divine Might Academy held nothing back, fully unleashing the capabilities of the Purple Cloud 15.

Keep in mind, even a powerful sect like the Great Sun Sword Sect did not have all sword cultivators equipped with third-generation superior-grade treasure level flying swords.

Especially since the performance of the Purple Cloud 15 surpasses that of the typical third-generation superior-grade treasure flying swords.

Under these circumstances, even though Qingfeng Courtyard and Divine Might Academy were numerically inferior, the combat power they ultimately unleashed was in no way less formidable than the three elite academies of the Great Sun Sword Sect.

The two sides fiercely clashed above the skies of the East Sea Archipelago, a scene that caused the observing Heavenly Palace Cultivators from the Great Sun Sword Sect, the Primordial Yang Sect, including Myriad Beasts Sect, Immortal Alliance, and Limitless Star Palace, among others, to be profoundly shocked.

For a moment, countless messages were swiftly conveyed through the Heavenly Palace Cultivators.

"How is this possible!? When did the Nine Cauldrons Sect get such advanced flying swords!? A few years ago, they... didn’t even have the technology to craft second-generation interior-grade treasure flying swords, could they only rely on expensive materials to barely forge a second-generation interior-grade treasure?"

"I need the information on this model of flying sword! Right now! Immediately!"

"This must be the Purple Cloud 15 Flying Sword that our undercover agent has been investigating! Our agents have hypothesized for a while that the Nine Cauldrons Sect not only broke through the technology to refine Interior Grade Treasure Level Flying Swords but also Superior Grade ones. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be selling the Interior Grade ones! Now, it seems that this is true! They’ve not only broken through in this technology but have also equipped it on a large scale!"

"Can someone tell me what exactly happened? In my memory, the sword cultivators from the Nine Cauldrons Sect and those from the Great Sun Sword Sect typically had battle casualty ratios of at least 1 to 5. What’s happening now? Did the Nine Cauldrons Sect start cheating?"

These pieces of information kept intersecting.

Everyone was absorbing the shock brought by the Nine Cauldrons Sect and the Purple Cloud 15 Flying Sword.

Unlike the previous times when Alkaid concealed their actions, this time the Nine Cauldrons Sect to ensure they were actually retaliating when the Great Sun Sword Sect invaded their territory did not hide their actions too much, allowing all large sects with Heavenly Palace Cultivators to witness this battle’s occurrence.

It was foreseeable that if the Nine Cauldrons Sect truly won this war, their influence in the Cangwu Great World would significantly increase.

...

Great Sun Sword Sect headquarters.

Chi Songzi and several high-ranking officials were also, through Heavenly Palace Cultivators, remotely observing this scene.

However, the expressions on their faces appeared extremely unpleasant at this moment.

Just then, a voice came through.

"Bai Shi, I need an explanation!"

As he spoke, a figure had already descended.

Seeing this figure, everyone in the room respectfully greeted with a bow.

"Honorable Sect Master."

The figure descending from the light was none other than the Sect Master of the Great Sun Sword Sect, Longze Chuan, who held authority over everyone and had tamed the divine beast, Hei Tian.

Hearing the Sect Master’s questioning, Bai Shi, although only present in the form of a virtual projection in this command center, seemed to still sweat coldly; he bowed deeply and said, "Apologies, Sect Master, this was a mistake on our part in the Heavenly Palace Hall."

"It seems prolonged comfort has made you forget your responsibilities."

Longze Chuan said directly, "Where is our Vajra Warship now, and what is its status?"

"We just contacted the Vajra Warship; it has been attacked, but the situation is still within controllable limits..."

"Is that so?"

Longze Chuan’s face remained cold as he retorted, "However, Lin Deng from the Limitless Star Palace has sent a message saying that they’ve detected some unusual disturbances within the Nine Cauldrons Sect’s Nine Heavens Domain. If I’m not mistaken, these disturbances are precisely the signal you discussed for a severe situation!"

Upon hearing this, Chi Songzi’s body trembled. Stay updated with novelbuddy

Bai Shi bowed even lower, nearly doubling over.

"You have disappointed me."

Longze Chuan spoke blandly.

"I am very sorry..."

Bai Shi knew his tenure as the head of the Heavenly Palace Hall had reached its end.

"Lin Deng has already sent us a message, based on their observations and estimates, the powerful Superior Grade Spiritual Treasure isn’t in the hands of the Sect Master of the Nine Cauldrons Sect, Li Qingshan, but has been handed over to Alkaid, who is not only a genius in formations and artifact refining but also in divine refining. According to Lin Deng’s personal assessment, with this Spiritual Treasure and a Primordial Spirit Combined Attack Formation they possess, this power is no less than that of a real Dharma Phase Cultivator."

Longze Chuan spoke indifferently, "Now, he is leading his Sea Fortification Courtyard rapidly toward this battlefield. Moreover, within their ranks, there emerged two Patrol Heaven Warships; one is the ’Jiaolong’ sold by the Myriad Beasts Sect, and the other... is our Great Sun Sword Sect’s ’Spring Rain’..."

Hearing that the "Spring Rain," belonging to the Great Sun Sword Sect, was about to be operated by the hostile Nine Cauldrons Sect and used against them, Chi Songzi, Teng Ye, and the others involuntarily clenched their teeth.

"So, what are you waiting for!? Or do you think, with the three academies—Shenfeng, Shenmu, and Shenshan—you can stop the Nine Cauldrons Sect supported by a Dharma Phase Cultivator!?"

Longze Chuan’s voice of utter disappointment rose again.

Chi Songzi and the others shuddered and promptly responded, "Yes."

They then urgently contacted the three chiefs of Shenfeng Academy, Shenmu Academy, and Shenshan Academy: "Our strategy has failed; the Nine Cauldrons Sect was prepared in advance. Now, retreat immediately! Everyone, get out of the Eastern Sea!"

The individuals at Shenfeng Academy, Shenmu Academy, and Shenshan Academy seemed somewhat incredulous.

The three chiefs assured Chi Songzi, seemingly with absolute conviction, that they could continue to fight.

They claimed that the sword cultivators of Qinglian Courtyard and Divine Might Academy were using a tremendous amount of Spirit Consumption and that victory would ultimately be on their side.

This blind confidence almost made Chi Songzi lose his patience: "Idiots! Who do you think you will be facing next!? It’s a Dharma Phase Cultivator leading an elite academy! If you want to die, don’t drag our brave warriors to needless sacrifice with you!"

He mercilessly issued the firm order: "Full-speed retreat!"
