Cultivation Starts from Farming-Chapter 451 - 255: Wind Country Spirit Ship (Part 4)
The spiritual ship cut through the sky, the sea of clouds below resembling a boundless white ocean.
The luxurious rooms on the second floor of the spiritual ship were elegantly decorated.
The tables and chairs were crafted from precious spirit wood, emitting a faint fragrance, and exquisite tea sets were placed on the coffee table.
Xu Ping sat leisurely in front of the table, personally brewing a pot of spirit tea, with the steaming aroma of tea filling the entire room.
He sat in front of the table, gazing out at the endless sea of clouds through the window, his thoughts drifting with it.
Originally, according to arrangements, Xu Ping was supposed to stay in an ordinary room on the first floor.
However, the previous provocations at the port by the Ten Thousand Dragons Commerce Association, who openly tried to poach talents, greatly wounded Miao Sijia’s pride.
To demonstrate her regard for Xu Ping and to also regain some face, she specially upgraded his cabin to one of the luxurious rooms on the second floor.
Naturally, Xu Ping gladly accepted this arrangement.
After all, such a comfortable environment was more conducive to his cultivation and rest.
And the other Foundation Establishment Cultivators who had just joined the Purple Mountain Association had no objections to this.
But upon hearing of this matter, Wan Junhao couldn’t help but feel even more sullen.
"It seems that this Ten Thousand Dragons Commerce Association is indeed trying to suppress their peers at the Purple Mountain Association."
Seeing the endless sea of clouds, Xu Ping took a sip of tea, lost in thought.
At this moment, recollections about the Ten Thousand Dragons Commerce Association surfaced in his mind. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖
The Ten Thousand Dragons Commerce Association, though it had only risen to prominence over the past few decades, was developing rapidly and could not be underestimated.
The president of this commerce association was powerful, being a Middle Stage of Golden Core cultivator, and under his command were two Early-Stage Golden Core cultivators, making it a gathering of talents with formidable strength.
In contrast, there was indeed a considerable gap between the Purple Mountain Association and it.
However, these matters were of little concern to Xu Ping.
In his eyes, an ordinary Middle Stage of Golden Core cultivator was simply a matter of splitting a few more swords.
Of course, he naturally wouldn’t expose his strength for the Purple Mountain Association, risking life and death.
Once the situation worsened, he would simply flee.
...
Thus, the spiritual ship continued its smooth flight through the vast sky, moving swiftly like a meteor streaking across the horizon.
Unbeknownst to all, a day’s time quietly passed, and the spiritual ship finally reached the boundary of the Yue Country.
At this moment, a cry of alarm came from the rear of the spiritual ship, followed by a burst of commotion.
"Inspectors from the Luoyun Sect!"
This shout quickly spread through the spiritual ship, like a huge stone cast into a calm lake, instantly breaking the tranquility on board.
Upon hearing the commotion, Xu Ping immediately left his room.
He saw, at the back of the spiritual ship, two spiritual boats about ten zhang long speeding towards them like a gust of wind.
Upon the spiritual boats stood a group of Luoyun Sect cultivators wearing a uniform attire.
Each of them bore a stern expression, their eyes conveying an undeniable authority, emanating an extraordinary aura as if they were a well-trained elite force.
"Spiritual ship ahead, submit to inspection!"
Seeing this, the speed of the two spiritual boats suddenly increased, like lightning, they swiftly arrived in front of the spiritual ship, steadily blocking its path.
Faced with this sudden situation, the spiritual ship of the Wind Country did not show any defiance, gradually coming to a stop.
At this moment, an Early-Stage Golden Core cultivator from the Wind Country, with a face full of smiles, quickly stepped forward, whispered a few words to the Luoyun Sect cultivators, then turned to face everyone on the spiritual ship and shouted loudly:
"Everyone return to your rooms and wait for the inspection!"
...
"Fellow Daoist Li, please calmly return to your room and wait. With the identity token of our Purple Mountain Association, passing this inspection will certainly be no problem."
Also residing in a luxurious room on the second floor, Miao Sijia said softly to reassure him.
"I understand!"
XU Ping nodded slightly and replied softly, then turned and went back to his room.
In the following hour, for those Yue Country cultivators who had stowed away on the spiritual ship, every minute and second felt like unbearable torture.
Even though they possessed identity tokens from the Wind Country, their hearts were still anxious, worried about what would happen if they were discovered as stowaways.
They all silently prayed in their hearts, hoping to pass the inspection smoothly.
The only solace was that the team of Luoyun Sect cultivators responsible for the inspection did not conduct the procedure too meticulously or strictly.
They entered each room one by one, only asking a few brief questions to the occupants, casually glancing at their identity tokens, and upon confirming no issues, quickly moving on to the next room.
On the surface, the entire inspection process seemed somewhat perfunctory, a mere formality.
But what others did not know was that a late-stage Golden Core cultivator’s divine sense enveloped the entire spiritual ship, quietly observing everyone’s every move.
