Chapter 2311: Chapter 2310: Warship Modification Plan

Long Fei and Wang Xiaoya entered the city, where giant mechanical guards were on high alert.

These mechanical guards were enormous, resembling eight-legged crabs, clad in iron armor and equipped with large-caliber Aurora Cannons.

There were Mechanical People standing on either side, scanning the passersby.

Long Fei and Wang Xiaoya passed through and were scanned without any issues.

Indeed, the portraits on the outer city walls were too inaccurate.

They wandered aimlessly through the crowded, gloomy city for a while, trying to find any traces left by Bald Dog.

Who would have thought they’d run into Wuu De and Xiao Ren, those two old guys, in a tavern?

They were organizing a group of cultivators to place bets in the lobby, their shouts audible even through the doors.

Long Fei and Wang Xiaoya walked in, and upon seeing them, the two old men exclaimed excitedly, "Well, well, what are you doing here?"

They forcefully dispersed the crowd, causing the group of dissatisfied cultivators to complain loudly.

Wuu De tossed out a handful of Spirit Stones, quieting the red-eyed cultivators.

The two old men immediately reserved a private room, taking Long Fei and Wang Xiaoya inside to sit down.

Long Fei smiled at the two and said, "I was wondering, what are you doing in this small world?"

Wuu De and Xiao Ren both laughed, waiting for the special local tea to be served. They invited Long Fei and Wang Xiaoya to taste it first before continuing.

This wasn’t tea at all; it had a metallic scent, much like lubricant used for machinery.

Long Fei had tasted this on Aurelius in the Nine Domains, and he calmly took a sip.

Wang Xiaoya frowned as she took a sip, but surprisingly, it tasted good, similar to the milk tea from her hometown, with a slight milky aroma as it went down.

Wuu De raised his hand to create a barrier around them, asking Long Fei, "Brother, you didn’t come here for that matter?"

Long Fei shook his head and chuckled, "Stop beating around the bush, I’m just here to find someone."

"It seems you truly don’t know."

Wuu De took a piece of leather parchment from his Storage Ring and handed it to Long Fei, saying, "Look at this, we came for this reason. Someone found the ruins of the Ancient Golden Mining City in the mines here, and within the ruins, they discovered a secret archive. The archive records how the previous civilization planned to transform this planet into a giant warship. They intended to propel the warship directly through the Fragmentary Ocean to the Immortal King Palace."

Long Fei looked at the words on the notebook, and with his cultivation level, he quickly understood the content.

He furrowed his brow, realizing why Bald Dog and others were after this small world.

It turns out, there’s such a big secret hidden here.

The Fragmentary Ocean refers to the surrounding area composed of billions of meteorites and planets.

To reach the Immortal King Palace, one must pass through this surrounding area.

The outer space structure is relatively stable, but the closer you get to the center, the denser the surrounding area becomes, and the collisions intensify.

Even Celestial Venerables don’t dare to venture too deep; the constant meteorite collisions inside are said to be like the beginning of the world.

Explosions are incessant, and from light-years away, one can see a circle of red light.

Once inside, even the body of a Celestial Venerable might be torn to shreds. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

Long Fei was astounded by the leather parchment, not expecting the previous civilization of this world to have been so advanced.

To think they had a plan to transform an entire planet into a spacecraft.

This planet was originally formed from compressed, collapsed special metal.

This metal was once called Divine Iron, an excellent material for forging Immortal Weapons.

If it could really be transformed into a spacecraft, it might be possible to traverse the colliding fragmented zone.

Long Fei handed the parchment back to Wuu De, curiously asking, "How did you get this?"

Wuu De laughed, "Of course, I bought it! Someone copied these documents countless times and sold them everywhere, a thousand Spirit Stones per copy, like wholesale."

Long Fei chuckled, "So this place is going to get lively?"

Wuu De said, "Indeed, we’re already late. The previous group of people either went searching for the entrance to this secret base or headed to Sky City; this place won’t remain peaceful for long."

"Why aren’t you going up?"

Wang Xiaoya curiously asked them.

Xiao Ren shrugged, "Those above are afraid of trouble and have sealed the way up. If we go up, we’ll face their heavy firepower. Wuu and I are too old to handle that."

Wang Xiaoya giggled, thinking to herself that they were truly modest.

While they were speaking, thunderous booms suddenly echoed from the sky outside.

"There’s a situation!"

Wuu De shouted, and everyone rushed outside.

The group of cultivators who were betting in the lobby had all gone outside, looking up at the sky.

A massive Sky City was retaliating against intruders from outside.

The city’s outskirts lit up with a golden light circle.

Over a hundred black warships were fiercely firing at Sky City.

The cannons were incredibly powerful, shooting out straight beams of light.

Hundreds of light beams pierced the sky with a humming sound, striking the light circle.

The force could shatter a space meteorite.

But striking the light circle, it was like stones falling into the sea, only causing tiny ripples on its surface.

Soon, Sky City retaliated.

The light circle emitted a hum and suddenly expanded forward.

The light circle fiercely enveloped the over a hundred black warships, and with thunderous bangs, one warship after another, capable of withstanding meteor showers, was turned into a rain of light under the light circle’s onslaught. It sparkled like fireworks in the sky.

A cultivator exclaimed, "Wow, isn’t that the Black Kun Fleet, famous in the Fragment Star Domain, wiped out in no time?"

"What’s surprising, they were overconfident. This Sky City is the last city left from the previous civilization. It has the strongest defense and attack systems, capable of releasing countless metal particles in an instant to destroy the surrounding meteorite groups without issue."

"Aren’t we doomed then, can’t get up there?"

"We just arrived late, wait! Some big shot will come; I don’t believe they’ll keep the gate shut forever."

Someone laughed, "There are countless roads to the top, it just depends on your courage."

Someone asked, "Do you have a way?"

This person said, "Of course, whoever’s willing to risk it for a million Spirit Stones, I’ll take them up immediately."

The crowd exchanged glances, bursting into laughter, "I bet you’re just a scammer, if you have a way, why aren’t you up there already, what are you waiting for here?"

"A million, are you crazy for money?"

"We’re not fools, do what you gotta do. Don’t piss us off, or we’ll teach you a lesson."

"..."

The young cultivator’s face turned red, shouting out defiantly, "I really have a way, look!"

He gestured to the four pipelines that connected the sky to the ground, "Look carefully, these pipelines transport gold and supplies to the top. If you go through the pipeline, you can easily bypass the defense barrier and enter Sky City."
