My Five Bigshot Seniors: I am The Most Coddled Junior!-Chapter 442 - 122: [First Update]

Although quite surprised, Gu Qingqing thought carefully and realized that all eight Peak Masters of the Langya Immortal Sect had been in the Daluo True Immortal Realm for a long time. Their talents were not weak to begin with, so advancing to the Immortal Emperor Realm was a normal occurrence, nothing unexpected.

Mu Chen was still in seclusion and hadn’t come out yet. Fortunately, the sect had quite a few direct disciples with high levels of Alchemy skills. They exchanged some elixirs with those disciples, and there was no need to worry about talismans since Rong Ye had already prepared them.

During this period, Rong Ye’s cultivation had also improved significantly. He even entered the Golden Immortal Realm a step earlier than Gu Qingqing and the others, and his talisman drawings had become much more advanced. Their power was quite substantial, and they could be fully utilized in the Secret Realm.

After preparations were complete, they set off with other disciples of the Langya Immortal Sect, following Peak Master Rong, heading towards the Red Cloud Sea,

The Red Cloud Sea was in Yuwan City in East Victory State, quite far from the Langya Immortal Sect. To ensure everyone wouldn’t be too exhausted, Immortal Venerable Hao Lan specially approved the use of the sect’s large Flying Immortal Artifact, the Dragon Cloud Boat, for this trip.

From the outside, the Dragon Cloud Boat did not appear particularly large, only having three levels. However, judging by its shimmering luster, the materials used were very precious. Upon entering, one would discover that space arrays were added inside, making the space quite large and the decorations very luxurious. There were over thirty disciples going to the Red Cloud Sea this time, and each person had their own room.

Once all the disciples were aboard the Dragon Cloud Boat, Peak Master Rong cupped his hands towards Immortal Venerable Hao Lan and then activated the Dragon Cloud Boat. Very quickly, the Dragon Cloud Boat took to the skies, becoming a small black dot in the eyes of Immortal Venerable Hao Lan and the others, departing from the skies above the Langya Immortal Sect.

"No doubt it’s a top-tier Immortal Artifact, this is simply too luxurious inside!" Gu Qingqing exclaimed in amazement as she looked at the decorations inside the Dragon Cloud Boat.

"Once I’ve gathered enough materials, I’ll make one for you as well." Jun Wu embraced Gu Qingqing from behind, resting his head on her shoulder, and whispered gently in her ear.

"Really?" Gu Qingqing turned her head in surprise, her eyes sparkling, "That’s great."

She happily kissed Jun Wu on the cheek and wrapped her arms around his neck, a bright smile on her face.

Previously in the Sub-immortal Realm, Si Lin had given her such a Flying Artifact, but after reaching the Immortal Realm, it was completely insufficient, forcing her to resort to Sword Flight. However, Sword Flight had too many drawbacks, so much so that Gu Qingqing was too lazy to complain about it. Now with Jun Wu’s promise, she was naturally delighted.

Of course, Jun Wu wouldn’t be satisfied with just a kiss on the cheek. He raised his hand to the back of Gu Qingqing’s head, then leaned down to capture her lips.

It wasn’t until a knocking sound came from the door that he finally released Gu Qingqing. Seeing Gu Qingqing’s dazed look, his eyes darkened for a moment, but with the knocking continuing, he had to take a deep breath and turn to open the door.

The one knocking was Nan Hua. Seeing Jun Wu’s stern face, he didn’t think much of it, as Jun Wu was usually expressionless except in front of Gu Qingqing. He glanced inside but didn’t see Gu Qingqing, a bit surprised.

"Geng Geng resting?" he asked in surprise, with a fan in hand.

"Third Senior Brother, I’m not resting," upon hearing Nan Hua’s voice, Gu Qingqing hurriedly came out from inside. By now her expression had returned to normal, except for a hint of redness on her cheeks.

"That’s good; the view outside is nice. Want to come out and have a look?" Nan Hua sighed in relief and invited.

Gu Qingqing’s eyes lit up, then nodded, pulling Jun Wu along as they followed Nan Hua out the door.

The Dragon Cloud Boat, being a top-tier Immortal Artifact, obviously had more functions than just flying. During flight, its hull would be shielded by a transparent protective shield, making it possible to feel the wind from inside without the hair and clothes being blown into disarray, unlike with Sword Flight. One could leisurely enjoy the sky scenery.

When Gu Qingqing and the two others came out, there were already quite a few people on the deck enjoying the scenery. Such Immortal Artifacts as the Dragon Cloud Boat were rare, and for many their first time aboard, naturally they were quite curious, making it a great opportunity to truly appreciate the surroundings.

Si Lin and Yue Zhao were leaning against the railing, one dressed in white, the other in green, both exceptionally good-looking, capturing quite a few glances.

"First Senior Brother, Second Senior Brother." Gu Qingqing approached the two, calling out to them.

"Geng Geng, Jun Wu, you’re here." Yue Zhao turned around, and upon seeing Gu Qingqing, his lips curled up involuntarily.

"First Senior Brother, Second Senior Brother." Jun Wu followed behind Gu Qingqing, nodding at the two.

Gu Qingqing went to the railing to take in the view outside. Seeing the surrounding scenery and the clouds within reach made her mouth curl up with delight, captivated by its beauty.

Jun Wu stood by Gu Qingqing’s side, enjoying the distant scenery with her, savoring this rare moment of tranquility.

"Everyone, look, what is that?" Amidst everyone’s immersion in the beautiful scenery, suddenly a voice rang out, drawing everyone’s attention.

Following the voice, they discovered a female disciple pointing to a spot to her left. Following her finger, they spotted a purple portal that had appeared not far away.

Under everyone’s gaze, the hole suddenly opened, and a giant sound emerged from inside. It was a colossal spider, with a body of purple-black color, marked by white stripes. The eight solitary eyes on its cephalothorax were an eerie purple, and its four pairs of legs looked incredibly robust, each hair standing distinctly and glinting with a cold gleam.

Once the spider appeared, the purple hole disappeared without a trace.

It stretched its body, then twisted and moved swiftly towards the Dragon Cloud Boat. Its speed was incredible; one moment it seemed far away, and the next it was almost upon them.

"Enemy attack! Prepare for battle!" Peak Master Rong appeared on the deck, cold-faced, as he loudly commanded while watching the fast-approaching spider.

The disciples on the deck froze for a moment, then drew their weapons, vigilantly eyeing the onrushing spider.

Gu Qingqing and the others didn’t look too well either. From the moment they saw the purple hole, Gu Qingqing had a bad premonition. She and Jun Wu had encountered similar situations several times before and knew things emerging from such holes were never simple. Although the spider was surrounded by a protective shield, they couldn’t sense its cultivation level, but it was clear this spider was formidable!

"We’ve never seen this spider before; how did it suddenly appear?" Nan Hua mumbled, somewhat puzzled, as he watched the spider drawing nearer.

"These creatures don’t seem to belong to the Immortal Realm. Ah Wu and I have encountered them twice before as well. I even mentioned this to my master, who also said these weren’t creatures of the Immortal Realm. When the battle commences, everyone be cautious; this creature’s cultivation might exceed the Daluo Golden Immortal!" Gu Qingqing warned Si Lin and Yue Zhao while fixating on the approaching spider.

"Got it, Geng Geng, stay safe!" Si Lin instinctively stepped in front of Gu Qingqing, advising her.

"Same to you, Senior Brother. Everyone, take care!" Gu Qingqing nodded while reminding the others.

Yue Zhao and the others nodded as well. At this time, the spider had already spewed a purple silk towards the Dragon Cloud Boat.

As a top-tier Immortal Artifact, the defenses on the Dragon Cloud Boat were naturally formidable. When the spider silk collided with the protective shield, a layer of golden light appeared, severing the silk as the light vanished.

The spider seemed surprised, lifting a leg to poke at the Dragon Cloud Boat, apparently intending to pierce the protective shield.

Everyone present was anxiously watching the skies, fearing the spider might actually break through the Dragon Cloud Boat’s protective shield. Fortunately, the defenses of the Dragon Cloud Boat held firm, withstanding the spider’s attack, causing it to rebound a few steps back.

This seemed to anger the spider. After regaining its footing, it furiously spewed a large web, aiming to ensnare the Dragon Cloud Boat.

The web stuck to the protective shield, and since it wasn’t an attack, the shield couldn’t retaliate, merely allowing the spider web to adhere.

The giant spider moved slightly, and the silk attached to the web moved with it, as if confirming whether the web had secured the protective shield. Once confirmed, under everyone’s horrified gazes, it yanked the silk hard, flinging it fiercely.

"Not good!" Peak Master Rong recognized the giant spider’s intention, inwardly remarked, trying to stop it but was too late as the opponent had already acted.

The Dragon Cloud Boat, initially flying normally, suddenly veered off course. The entire boat was flung away, and while those standing on the deck didn’t fall off due to the protective shield, they were thrown against it, tossed about with the Dragon Cloud Boat’s turbulence.

"Ouch, my head!"

"My arm, it hurts!"

"Who stepped on my shoulder, be gentle!"

"..."

Chaos erupted on the Dragon Cloud Boat, with a group of disciples unable to stabilize themselves, swaying with the boat’s motion, some even getting injured.

Quick to notice the giant spider’s intention, Jun Wu had already embraced Gu Qingqing, holding her firmly regardless of the Dragon Cloud Boat’s overturns. Thus, Gu Qingqing sustained little harm, while Jun Wu got abrasions on his back and arms.

Peak Master Rong naturally stabilized himself but also showed a stern face upon witnessing this scene.

He swiftly formed seals with his hands, and in the next moment, his body emerged outside the protective shield.

A black scimitar appeared in his hand, which he hurled fiercely.

The scimitar spun through the air, slicing through the giant spider’s silk. Without the drag of the web, the Dragon Cloud Boat was freed and flew off. Peak Master Rong then quickly formed seals again, restoring the Dragon Cloud Boat to normal flight.
