Chapter 522: 158 New Emperor Tomb Ind Master (10K Votes Requested)_3


    This statement sounded quite domineering.


    Time passed unnoticed as they discussed.


    The warship was of the lowest rank. The formation on it was just a third-order superior one, so it was not very fast – it was even slower than most flying boats of the same rank.


    However,pared to the huge cargo ships sailing on the sea, the speed of the warship was more than ten times faster.


    About three monthster.


    The warship was approaching the sea area near Huangling Ind. In addition to this medium-sized ind, there were some small inds or you could say, rocky inds nearby.


    There were some arrangements made in these inds. People were deployed to guard them, allowing the entire sea area to be under the surveince of Huangling Ind.


    The moment the warship in the sky did not decrease its speed and headed straight for Huangling Ind, the faces of the cultivators responsible for guarding the inds changed slightly.


    Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!


    A few cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Realm rose into the air, holding their magic sword artifacts, blocking the warship’s path.


    One of them shouted sternly, “Stop, warship ahead! This is the sea territory of Huangling Ind, all flying boats and warships crossing the sky are prohibited. Please descend into the sea and sail towards the port!”<div>


    “Buzz!”


    But the next moment, a beam of light shot out from the warship andnded in front of them.


    At the same time, Taoist Jin Feng’s voice rang out, sternly rebuking, “I am the elder ancestor of the Jin Family, and the devotee of Huangling Ind, Taoist Jin Feng. The elder ancestor has ordered me to escort honorable guests, make way quickly!”


    “You dare to block the road, are you courting death?”


    The beam of light was the token of old master Huang Changlong of the Huang family on Huangling Ind. It represented the elder ancestor of today’s merchant association on Huangling Ind. Every cultivator on Huangling Ind recognized it.


    They also recognized Taoist Jin Feng, the elder ancestor of Jin Family on the ind, who was a True Man at the ninthyer of Core Formation.


    So when they saw the elder ancestor’s token appearing in front of them, the cultivators’ faces changed instantly.


    Upon hearing Taoist Jin Feng’s scolding, their faces turned pale, full of extreme fear.


    “Calm your anger, True Man! Calm your anger!”


    “It’s our short-sightedness; we will make way immediately!”


    The cultivators in Foundation Establishment level retreated in panic, returning to the small inds where they were stationed. Until they saw the warship flying overhead towards Huangling Ind, they felt as though they had narrowly escaped death. Wiping the cold sweat from their foreheads, they were filled with lingering fear.


    One of them muttered, “Why did the elder ancestor let Taoist Jin Feng bring a warship back? This has never happened before.”


    “Moreover, didn’t the elder ancestor say that he would be absent for a while? There were even rumors that something had happened to him a while ago.”


    Someone exhaled, saying, “Who cares? As long as Taoist Jin Feng, holding the ancestor’s token, is leading the way, we certainly can’t stop him. Perhaps the elder ancestor has invited some outside help?”


    “Hasn’t the merchant association recently issued an order to strengthen vignce? Maybe there’s some kind of disturbance brewing.”


    The cultivators in the Foundation Establishment level whispered amongst themselves.


    After getting permission from them, the cultivators guarding the other inds did not dare to stop the warship anymore.


    On the warship.


    At this moment, the puppet body had brought Taoist Hei Jiao, Taoist Fujiang, and Taoist Jin Feng to the deck, overlooking a huge ind ahead.<div>


    Although it was called an ind, its actual area was probably half the size of the Great Moon Prefecture, spreading out as far as the eye could see.


    Below, a huge port had been built on Huangling Ind. It was very bustling. From time to time, arge merchant fleet would arrive to rest and stock up in the port, or use Huangling Ind as a transit point toplete trade transactions with other fleets.


    After all, for a fleet to sail out of the maind and reach Huangling Ind at the fastest speed, it would take a year.


    If they wanted to continue traveling to other areas in the sea, it was simply unrealistic for a normal fleet to do so.<div>


    Either they would rely on faster magic artifact cargo ships, or rely on spatial treasures for transportation.


    No matter which method, only the powerful merchant alliances could handle it.


    At this moment.


    There were three True Men in the Core Formation realm from the Huangling Ind Merchant Association at the port, led by a True Man from the Huang Family at the seventhyer of Core Formation.


    Inside a private room, the seventhyer Core Formation elder of the Huang family, Huang Min, was brewing tea for several guests. After the second infusion was ready, Huang Min poured the tea for the guests.


    Huang Minughed, “Please drink your tea, fellow daoists. It’s rare to see you all leading the fleet here together. This time we should have a good gathering.”


    While he looked at the people before him with a warm smile, he was extremely cautious inside, with a touch of worry lurking at the bottom of his eyes.


    The Mufeng Merchant Alliance, the Tai Yuan Merchant Alliance, and the Shijie Ind Stone Family not far from Huangling Ind!


    These three powers either have a False Infant realm True Monarch or a true Nascent Soul realm True Monarch behind them.


    Each power could not be underestimated.


    Given the current situation of Huangling Ind and the Huang Family, if these families were to probe the actual situation of the Huang Family, what may await the Huang Family would be irreparable!


    The third elder of the Mufeng Merchant Alliance, Taoist Bai Ying, took the tea cup with a smile. As the steam billowed out of the tea, he took a small sip, then eximed, “Good tea, the aroma fills the air, it’s mildly bitter upon entry, but it has a sweet aftertaste. The tea fragrance lingers on the lips for a long time, and there is a surge of spiritual energy in the chest.”


    “This tea cup really makes me envious; I wonder when I will be able to taste it again.”<div>


    A middle-aged man sitting beside him, who looked to be in his forties or fifties, with short moustache, dressed in an extravagant deep blue robe, with slightly imposing features, smiled softly. After tasting a sip, he closed his eyes to savor it and said, “Compared to this tea, I’m more interested in the Spiritual Spring used to brew this tea.”
