Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

"Perhaps Luo Wanyi is warning you to be cautious of the recent magnetic anomalies," Dr. Dong's voice came from the boat.

Su Yun boarded the boat and saw Dr. Dong directing several spiritualists to carry a large coffin, struggling to bring it onto the boat.

Dr. Dong said, "Recently, due to the proximity of the extraterrestrial cave, there have been many magnetic anomalies, forming auroras in the sky. There have even been abnormal magnetic points on the sea, forming natural magnetic divine blades that are extremely sharp. I heard that a cargo ship was split in half by one of these magnetic divine blades. Several senior brothers have already gone to the sea to study these magnetic divine blades."

Su Yun stepped forward to help, activating his true essence to lift and place the coffin.

The coffin was enormous, reaching over ten zhang in height and three to four zhang in width. Su Yun's small celestial boat could only accommodate this coffin on its deck, and it had to be placed upright.

The other two boats were filled with experts from the Yuan Shuo Tong Tian Pavilion and the Huo Yun Cave Heaven, who were also returning to Yuan Shuo.

Ying Ying said, "I don't think Luo Wanyi is warning Su Scholar about the magnetic anomalies..."

Suddenly, thunderbolts struck down, hitting Su Yun's forehead. Seeing this, Ying Ying quickly entered Su Yun's spiritual realm to avoid the tribulation. Black smoke billowed, and the sound of ghosts and wolves crying came from the black clouds, drifting towards their small celestial boat. Two extra heads appeared on the black clouds, and they were Master Lingyue and Hua Hu.

Above their heads were calamitous clouds, with thunder and lightning intermingling, leaving them charred and burnt.

Dr. Dong frowned slightly, looking worriedly at the coffin. Fortunately, it seemed that the thunder tribulation was afraid of the coffin and always avoided it.

The thunder tribulation seemed to have a consciousness, accurately striking Su Yun's forehead one after another. Su Yun remained motionless, his face dark as he said, "Master Lingyue, Second Brother, let's set sail."

Master Lingyue and Hua Hu smiled, their faces blackened by the tribulation, but their teeth were snow-white. The two disciples quickly activated their true essence to propel the small celestial boat.

Originally, they were on the other boats, but those two boats did not welcome them and had driven them away.

Su Yun also did not want Hua Hu and Master Lingyue to board the boat, but now there were storms and various strange celestial phenomena at sea, making it extremely dangerous. No boat dared to venture out to sea.

If they wanted to return to Yuan Shuo, they had to board Su Yun's boat.

The wings of the small celestial boat spread out, and under the combination of wind and thunder, it soared into the sky and headed towards the Celestial Market Wall.

The other two small celestial boats also took off one after another.

Su Yun's boat had the fewest experts, with only Master Lingyue and Dr. Dong being considered masters. They were left far behind by the other two small celestial boats. Dr. Dong intended to help propel the small celestial boat, but Su Yun shook his head and said, "No need. Master Lingyue and Second Brother have almost infinite true essence."

Dr. Dong was puzzled.

This was due to the cultivation technique of Master Lingyue and Hua Hu. The more they modified the classics of Confucianism, the more tribulations they would face. Although this thunder tribulation was extremely dangerous, it was filled with the qi of heaven and earth. It constantly struck them, replenishing their blood and qi, keeping their cultivation at its peak!

The small celestial boat ascended higher and higher. Su Yun looked back and saw a devastated Yun Du, waiting to be rebuilt.

"Xiao Yun, you haven't seen the witch Wu Tong by your side recently."

Hua Hu asked, "Where did that human-demon go?"

Su Yun shook his head, "I don't know."

Since the battle at Xian Lu Mountain outside of Yun Du, he hadn't seen Wu Tong. Not only Wu Tong, but Long Ling and Jiao Shu'Ao had also disappeared without a trace. Su Yun ordered people to search around Xian Lu Mountain but never found them.

Under the guidance of Master Lingyue, the small celestial boat finally broke through the atmosphere and headed towards the Celestial Market Wall.

Su Yun raised his hand, and a yellow bell flew out, growing larger and larger, hanging in the air above the boat, protecting the air inside the cabin from leaking out.

This yellow bell was not his spiritual ability but his spiritual weapon. Although it took a long time to refine this spiritual weapon due to the chaos caused by the residual ashes, it was finally completed.

The yellow bell was made from the spear that killed the Fire Virtue God Lord, and the inscriptions on the inside and outside of the bell were all ground from the horn of the Winged Dragon and branded onto it!

The gears rotating at different levels inside the bell were made from Qing Hong coins, truly luxurious!

The inscriptions of various gods and demons on the inner wall of the bell were dim and lifeless. These gods and demons were no longer gods and demons and could not be summoned by the qi of heaven and earth. Therefore, the power of the inscriptions on the yellow bell was not as strong as before.

However, the old scriptures appeared on the scales, hours, days, and months, reflecting on the bell.

Su Yun's Great Unification technique had unknowingly transformed, forming various inscriptions that were reflected on this bell.

Underneath the yellow bell, thunder continued to strike, hitting Su Yun's head. Su Yun's blood and qi surged, taking the opportunity to melt the excess blood and qi into the yellow bell, transforming them into various inscriptions to enhance the power of the bell.

Master Lingyue and Hua Hu seemed like the bringers of misfortune, being struck by thunder every day. But in reality, they were the bringers of fortune. With them around, the process of refining treasures became much simpler.

The small celestial boat traveled for a day, and Su Yun had refined the yellow bell to a considerable extent, deepening various inscriptions. However, although the yellow bell was excellent, Su Yun found it somewhat difficult to activate.

The materials used for this yellow bell were too good, even the Winged Dragon's horn was just a supplementary material. When activated, it consumed a tremendous amount of qi, and more importantly, its power was astonishing!

Su Yun took out a compass to calibrate the direction.

Suddenly, a loud bang was heard, and something collided with the yellow bell, causing it to shake!

Then, more loud bangs came, and countless visible rays of light shot out from the void!

The rays of light moved like lightning, becoming faster and faster. Su Yun groaned, and the yellow bell continued to ring, becoming increasingly difficult to resist!

It wasn't that the yellow bell couldn't resist, but Su Yun's mana couldn't contend with the light coming from outside the sky!

"Could it be the magnetic divine light?"

Dr. Dong hurriedly came to the side of the boat and looked outside. He saw the divine light surging like a tide, breaking through the atmosphere and rubbing against the air, forming dazzling auroras.

"This is the light that forms a blade, splitting a cargo ship in half on the sea!"Doctor Dong said, "Fortunately, the magnetic divine light we just passed through was only a light needle, not a light sword. If it were a light sword, I'm afraid the Lord wouldn't be able to withstand it."

Just as he said this, his face suddenly changed, and a dazzling light came, like a sword piercing through the sky, fiercely stabbing towards the world below!

And in between the sword light and the ground, their small celestial ship was there!

"Not good! Quick, hide—"

Doctor Dong had just said this when the dazzling light sword had already struck. The bell rang, and an incredibly terrifying force transmitted from outside the yellow bell to underneath it. The deck of the celestial ship they were on burst into loud explosions, and the metal feathers of the phoenix wings on the ship burst open, turning into dust. The cabin, which stored air and was made according to the specifications of the demon god's belly, was instantly crushed and destroyed!

Doctor Dong and Master Lingyue acted without hesitation, each activating their divine powers. Their spiritual beings appeared behind them, joining forces to support the descending yellow bell.

The two masters each groaned, and the deck of the celestial ship under their feet instantly shattered. The small celestial ship was pressed down and began to disintegrate!

"With the Lord's spiritual weapon, it may not be able to withstand this attack!"

Doctor Dong and Master Lingyue were both in the realm of Zhen Sheng. One was praised by Zuo Songyan as the second most powerful in the Wenchang Academy, and the other was called an unfathomable existence by Zuo Songyan. The spiritual beings of the two of them appeared together, blocking the light of the magnetic divine sword that came from outside the sky!

Even these two great masters were shaken and their blood and qi churned. What about Su Yun's spiritual divine weapon? It would definitely be destroyed by the divine sword formed by the magnetic eruption!

However, after this wave of impact passed, the yellow bell rose up again.

The two of them couldn't help but be stunned: "Blocked? Even if it's a spiritual divine weapon, it shouldn't be able to withstand the magnetic eruption this time!"

They didn't know that in order to refine his own spiritual divine weapon, Su Yun had used countless treasures and materials. Moreover, this spiritual weapon was refined by Su Yun inviting the top craftsmen from the Tongtian Pavilion, led by Ouyu Wu, and thousands of spiritual beings from the Great Qin Dynasty! 𝗯𝗲𝗱𝗻𝐨𝐯𝗲𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Ouyu Wu's craftsmanship was unparalleled in the world. Unless they were wealthy or saints, they would never be able to invite him.

It can be said that even the spiritual divine weapon of a great saint would not be as sturdy and durable as Su Yun's spiritual weapon.

The decks of the small celestial ship under their feet continued to fly up, and it seemed that the ship was not far from disintegration. Su Yun was dizzy from the shock and barely stabilized his blood and qi. He shouted loudly, "Everyone, come to my bell wall to avoid getting separated!"

Everyone flew up and landed on the yellow bell. Doctor Dong was a step behind, just as he used his mana to support the coffin, the small celestial ship shattered into pieces!

Master Lingyue's body emitted black qi, turning into chains that flew out and wrapped around Doctor Dong, pulling him back to the yellow bell.

Doctor Dong breathed a sigh of relief, and everyone released their spiritual realms, surrounding the yellow bell to maintain their breathing.

Hua Hu said, "Without a flying celestial ship, with our speed, it would take us at least a month to fly to Tian Shi Yuan. Moreover, the air in our spiritual realms cannot last that long."

Ying Ying looked down and said, "We just need to return to the atmosphere."

Su Yun shook his head and said, "Below is the vast ocean, boundless and without a ship. If we were to travel by sea, it would probably take us another month. Besides, I promised Qin Wuling and Han Jun that I would never set foot in Yuanshuo again."

Everyone was worried, and Doctor Dong suddenly said, "Lord, besides refining these three ships, have you also refined other celestial ships?"

Su Yun shook his head.

Doctor Dong looked back and asked in confusion, "Then whose ship is that over there?"

Su Yun, Master Lingyue, and the others looked over and indeed saw a ship coming towards them from the direction of the Great Qin Dynasty. However, it was too far away to see clearly.

"Could it be Yan Qingzhou's ship?" Doctor Dong wondered.

Yan Qingzhou and the other experts from the Yuanshuo Tongtian Pavilion numbered over a hundred. In addition to the experts from the Huoyun Cave Heaven, they set sail on two ships. With their high cultivation, their speed should be faster, and they should have left Su Yun and the others far behind.

"Could they have been delayed on the way?"

After observing for a moment, they saw that the speed of that ship was not slow, and it was getting closer and closer. Su Yun's expression changed slightly, and he shook his head, saying, "It's not our ship. This ship seems a bit big."

Just as he said that, the ship vibrated with six pairs of wings and had already arrived behind them. The ship was hundreds of zhang long, majestic and solemn. The biomimetic spiritual realm surrounding the ship had already enveloped them!

Even Su Yun's yellow bell, which was extremely large, appeared extremely small in front of this ship!

This ship was somewhat similar to the ship that was attacked by Yue Liuxi, but it was larger and more magnificent. The outer wall of the ship was engraved with various divine patterns, all of which were gilded!

Ying Ying murmured, "This ship..."

At this moment, a deity on the ship, looking down from above, asked, "Is the Lord Su, the Lord of the Tongtian Pavilion, below?"

Su Yun looked up and said, "That's me. May I ask who you are?"

"I dare not, I am the Heavenly Court Divine Emperor."

The deity on the ship smiled and said, "This space is vast and boundless. Why not come aboard, drink some fine wine, and enjoy the music and dance, rather than being exposed in space?"

"That would be great!" Su Yun was overjoyed and slowly raised the yellow bell.

Ying Ying whispered, "The Divine Emperor is the national teacher of the Great Qin Dynasty, Yu Daoyuan. Although his daughter is on good terms with you, he is not. Su Scholar, what if he suddenly turns hostile? How should we respond?"

"Adapt to the situation!"

Su Yun smiled and took a few steps to the front of the bell. Suddenly, he was stunned. He saw that the large crack he thought was indestructible on the yellow bell had actually been cut by the magnetic divine sword from outside the sky, leaving a deep crack nearly half a chi wide and several zhang long!

Moreover, in the middle of that crack, there was actually a long sword inserted there, and the hilt of the sword was slightly vibrating, as if it wanted to break free from the restraint of the yellow bell and escape!

"Could this sword be the magnetic divine sword from earlier? No, wasn't the magnetic divine sword just a magnetic divine light caused by the proximity of the two worlds? It should have been just a beam of magnetic divine light..."

He didn't have time to think about it. The yellow bell had already floated up and was level with the huge deck of the ship.Without a second thought, Su Yun grabbed the hilt of the Primordial Magnetic Divine Sword, drew it out, and laughed heartily, "The Divine Emperor is indeed refined, actually going on a boat trip. Where might you be heading?"
