Fantasy: I Am the Villain.

Chapter 147 Flying Magical Weapon

Chapter 147 Flying Magic Treasure

"I didn't expect the sect leader to be so willing to bestow this treasure upon you. But as the saying goes, one should not refuse a gift from an elder, so please accept it!"

There were no outsiders in the room at this time, so Bai Yan no longer deliberately maintained that stubborn, deadpan expression.

Since becoming the head of the Enforcement Hall, Bai Yan, who was already somewhat taciturn, deliberately adopted this demeanor to maintain his image, and even now that he has stepped down, it is difficult for him to change.

Of course, in front of his own son Bai Ke, Bai Yan didn't need to put on that act anymore, and stiffly forced a smile at Bai Ke.

"Lingyun Ferry... Father, you still haven't told me what this thing is." Bai Ke muttered to himself, toying with the small boat that Bai Yan had returned to him.

"So... what exactly is this for..." Seeing Bai Yan still lost in thought with a nostalgic expression, Bai Ke raised his voice.

"Ahem..." Realizing he had lost his composure, Bai Yan coughed twice. "This is a flying magic weapon, with some defensive and offensive formations, but it's just something to fill out."

"A flying magic weapon?" Bai Ke pondered for a moment, selectively ignoring the comment Bai Yan followed up with.

What a joke! Even if it's just for show, that's only in Bai Yan's eyes. If it were anyone else, would you let them endure it for a while?

Since Bai Yan said it's a flying magic weapon, its main function must be to help people travel or escape.

After arriving in this world, Bai Ke did not do nothing; at least he was quite clear about common knowledge such as flying magic weapons.

After thousands of years of refinement and optimization, Shanghai has developed its own unique system for the classification and use of magical artifacts.

Well... similar to others, the magic weapon system, which originated from the ancient cultivation world, has undergone many changes today.

For example, those legendary cultivation weapons that rely on spirit stones as their main energy source, such as the Spirit Source Warship, are something they can't repair no matter how hard they try.

The talismans and formations involved are as numerous as the stars in the sky, so the great cultivators of the Mountain and Sea Realm can only try to imitate them and barely manage to create some imitations.

This flying magic weapon was derived from this. As a treasure for traveling and escaping, this type of magic weapon has always been priceless.

Bai Ke then understood why Ning Fengyi hadn't openly shown what she had given him.

Bai Ke knew the principle of not flaunting one's wealth, but as a junior who had just advanced to the Nascent Soul Realm in the eyes of others, he suddenly possessed a rare flying magic weapon...

Bai Ke could imagine how greedy they must have been when they heard the news. Even with his powerful backing, he couldn't stop those willing to take the risk.

Therefore, Ning Fengyi's actions can be seen as protecting Bai Ke, although our protagonist doesn't care about that.

If he can't even protect his own treasures, how can he compete with those destined protagonists for fortune?

Ignoring the deeper meaning behind Ning Fengyi's actions, Bai Ke's attention was drawn to something else.

Yeah! That's right, this thing is just a means of transportation. I might not know much about flying artifacts, but I'm very familiar with transportation...

Since his cheapskate father knew something about this small boat called Lingyun Ferry, Bai Ke wouldn't miss the chance to get a few words out of him.

As we all know, when choosing a car, you naturally have to consider its speed and fuel consumption. For this little boat called Lingyun Ferry, Bai Ke is obviously most concerned about these two points.

"Hmm... This Lingyun Ferry was obtained by my senior brother and the sect leader when we explored the ancient cultivation ruins. It is better than the current flying magic treasures, and it is more troublesome to recognize its owner."

Instead of explaining to Bai Ke the issues of speed and spirit stone consumption that he was most concerned about, Bai Yan first talked about the origin of the Lingyun Ferry.

Bai Ke recalled the strange way Lingyun Ferry recognized its owner; who could have known that this seemingly wooden boat was actually just the outer shell of the real interior…

"Hehe, those ancient cultivators are truly geniuses. Now, we cultivators can only use those spiritual treasures that already contain artifact spirits."

This flying magical vessel, through this tiny core, can achieve the effects that only spiritual treasures can perform; it's truly unbelievable.

Bai Yan's calm voice held an air of disbelief, and a lead-colored sphere appeared in his hand without him noticing.

"Is this... the core that Father spoke of?" Bai Ke cautiously looked at the sphere in the other's hand. Could such a small thing really control this magic ship?

"Hmm!" Bai Yan nodded, then reached out and took a drop of blood from Bai Ke's fingertip, and dripped it onto the sphere.

Then, like a sponge that had been thirsty for countless years, the sphere quickly absorbed Bai Ke's blood into his body.

As the blood gradually seeped into the sphere, Bai Ke felt himself gradually forming a connection with this white jade magic boat.

He could even clearly sense a chaotic consciousness within the magic boat trying to touch his spiritual sense.

Because his two souls were fused together, his spiritual awareness was much higher than that of others, which is why he was able to sense the faint consciousness contained within the Dharma Boat.

"It seems... Ning Fengyi really gave me a great gift... But thinking about it, it makes sense. Since it's a relic from the ancient cultivation era, it's not too unbelievable that it could give birth to a spirit..."

Bai Ke muttered to himself that the questions he wanted to know about speed and spirit stone consumption had already been automatically transmitted into his mind when Lingyun Ferry recognized him as its master.

The reason Bai Yan hadn't spoken about it was because he hadn't recognized the vessel as his master and therefore didn't know its specific parameters, leaving it for Bai Ke to explore on his own.

According to the information transmitted by Bai Ke from inside the Dharma Boat, its speed is determined by the user's cultivation level, and of course, it also requires a certain amount of spirit stones to replenish.

Under normal circumstances, if there are not enough spirit stones, the user can send spiritual power into the spiritual power pipes of the magic boat through the main control core to serve as fuel.

When the user's cultivation level is high enough, this method produces the fastest speed, and if the user can afford it, it can even be faster than light.

"Holy crap, just this small boat, faster than light? That's too fantastical... Can the materials even keep up?" Bai Ke was somewhat shocked.

Bai Ke was not particularly shocked that the cultivators of the ancient cultivation world could measure the speed of light.

If even the technologically advanced Earth can calculate this, there's no reason why the powerful cultivation world wouldn't know...
