Chapter 508 The Extraterritorial Passage is Open
With eighty-one more girls on board, the airship suddenly became as lively as a vegetable market.
The girls chattered away, their voices echoing from the bow to the stern, from the deck to the cabin, everywhere.
Some people leaned over the gunwale to admire the scenery, pointing at the mountains and rivers below and shouting excitedly.
"Wow—that river is so winding! It's like a intestine!"
"What kind of analogy is that? It's incredibly convoluted! Don't you understand aesthetics?"
"It's just curved, anyway."
Some sat on the deck chatting, and then burst into laughter, laughing so hard that the ship rocked.
Stop laughing! The boat's going to capsize!
"It can't be turned over, young master is here."
"Even the young master can't withstand this kind of abuse from you!"
Some of them surrounded the blue phoenix, asking it all sorts of questions, like a flock of little sparrows.
"Sister Lan, what is the Eastern Region like?"
"Sister Lan, is the Great Yan Great?"
"Sister Lan, is Mr. Lin's wife easy to get along with?"
"Sister Lan, how many wives does Young Master Lin have?"
"Sister Lan, what kind of girl does Young Master Lin like?"
Lan Fenghuang was overwhelmed by the questions, but she still maintained a polite smile and answered them one by one.
"The Eastern Region is quite good."
"Dayan is quite large."
"Madam is doing well."
"Several."
"What do you want to achieve by asking this last question?"
The girl who asked the last question shrank back, chuckled, and ran away.
Some girls secretly glanced at Lin Chen, like thieves.
The person next to her nudged her arm: "What are you staring at?"
"What's wrong with me looking? Can't I even look at you just because you're handsome?"
"You can look, but don't drool."
"I wasn't drooling! You're the one drooling!"
Lin Chen lay on a deck chair on the deck, legs crossed, eyes half-closed, basking in the sun.
Lingbo stood at the bow of the boat, her white clothes fluttering in the wind, her silhouette as aloof as an iceberg.
This contrasted sharply with the group of chattering girls behind him.
Several girls wanted to go over and talk to her, but they stopped three steps away.
"Sister Lingbo is so cold."
"It's not that it's cold, it's its aura."
"What kind of aura?"
"An aura that keeps strangers at bay."
"So, are we considered strangers?"
"...I guess so?"
"Then let's not go there."
"Hmm, don't go there."
The girls shrank back inside.
Chi Meng sat in the corner, eyes closed, without saying a word.
Dressed in all black, with his hair disheveled, he huddled in the shadows, like a black statue.
Its presence is extremely low.
It's so low that sometimes passersby are suddenly startled.
"Ah! There are people here!"
Chi Meng opened her eyes, glanced at her, and then closed them again.
The man patted his chest and walked away, glancing back once more, muttering, "That scared me to death..."
Dugu Qiubai sat on the gunwale, slowly sipping a cup of tea.
A curious young woman leaned closer and asked, "Senior, don't you feel it's swaying?"
Dugu Qiubai glanced at her: "Not shaking."
"The gunwale is so narrow, aren't you afraid of falling overboard?"
"Won't."
"You've been sitting for several hours, aren't your legs numb?"
Dugu Qiubai glanced at her again and remained silent for two seconds.
"What exactly do you want to ask?"
The girl chuckled, "I'm just curious, what exactly is your cultivation level?"
Dugu Qiubai picked up his teacup and took a sip.
"you guess."
girl:"……"
This old man is quite the conversationalist.
The flying boat headed north, passing Nanjiang City and those nameless small towns and cities.
Just as they were about to reach Tianyuan City, the weather changed.
The crack that stretched for thousands of miles suddenly lit up.
Then, with a loud "boom"!
A feeling that exploded from the depths of one's soul sent chills down everyone's spine.
The dark red light suddenly surged, turning the entire sky crimson.
The crack gradually tore open from the middle to both sides, like an eye slowly opening, or a mouth slowly opening wide.
The dark red light grew stronger and brighter, turning the entire sky blood red.
On the ground below the flying boat.
People looked up at this scene.
Someone knelt down.
Someone collapsed to the ground.
Someone was carrying a child and running into the house.
Some people stood there in a daze, not even noticing that they had dropped what they were holding.
After the crack expanded to a certain extent, it suddenly stopped.
Then it contracted, as if something was sucking it in, drawing all the dark red light from the edge of the crack.
The center of the crack instantly turned pitch black, like a bottomless pupil.
Then, the crack suddenly burst open.
"boom!!!"
A deafening roar, so loud it sounded like the sky had collapsed.
The airship shook violently, and several girls lost their balance and sat down on the ground.
"oops--"
"What is that?!"
"Look up at the sky!"
A giant hand emerged from within.
It was more than ten times larger than the one I saw over Tianyuan City last time.
With his five fingers spread out, each finger was as thick as a mountain.
It was completely black, and its surface was covered with thicker and denser scales than before.
Each scale resembled a red-hot iron, its edges gleaming with a dark red light.
The entire sky was blocked out.
The sun is gone.
The clouds are gone.
The light is gone.
All that remained was that hand, and the dark red sky behind it.
The girls on the airship were deathly pale.
Several of the more timid ones had already collapsed to the ground, their legs too weak to stand up.
"What...what is this...?"
"Mother..."
"Stop calling me 'Mother,' what's the point?!"
Lin Chen lay on the recliner, squinting at the hand, motionless.
Lan Fenghuang stood next to Lin Chen, her hands on her waist, her face pale.
Lingbo stood at the bow of the ship, expressionless, but she drew her sword.
Chi Meng opened her eyes, looked up at the hand, and her lips twitched slightly.
Dugu Qiubai put down his teacup and stood up.
The hand hovered in mid-air, as if sensing something.
His five fingers were slightly spread apart, and the dark red light at his fingertips flickered.
It's like five eyes scanning the world.
A moment later, it closed its five fingers and withdrew them.
The crack did not close; it maintained a stable width, twice as large as before.
The dark red light shone through, less dazzling, but heavier and more oppressive.
Then, a torrent of extraterrestrial creatures surged out of the crack.
Some resemble wolves, but are ten times larger, entirely black, with dark red eyes, fangs longer than a human arm, and drool dripping from their mouths, which hiss and smoke as they drip onto the ground.
Some resemble birds, but have no feathers, their entire bodies are covered in scales, their wings spread wide enough to blot out the sun, and their claws drip with black slime that corrodes and creates a pit wherever it lands.
Some look like fish, but they have legs.
Some are indistinguishable in shape, just a wriggling mass of flesh covered with eyes and mouths, each mouth containing several rows of serrated teeth, biting in circles, even biting its own kind.
They have one thing in common—violence, bloodlust, and irrationality.
They surged out of the cracks like a tide.
Dense and numerous, spreading outwards from the center of the crack, like a giant black firework exploding in the air.
There were so many that they were countless, and their cultivation levels ranged from Grandmaster to Celestial Immortal, but none were at the True Monarch level.
But these low-level cannon fodder alone are enough to cause a major upheaval in the entire Central Plains.
