Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill Chapter 1201 - 527: The First Vice Sect Leader
Previously on Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill...
When the "Celestial Patrol Ship" pierced through the clouds and landed on the floating plaza of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect," it caused a wave of shock among many fellow sect members.
Everyone had seen the "Shenxiao Battleship" and the "Cyan Cloud Ship," but what warship is this?
As the number one ship of the "Celestial Patrol Ship," it indeed is a rare novelty.
The blueprint from the "Celestial Craft Hall" hasn’t been completed yet, so most people in the sect naturally don’t know what model of warship this is or its specific parameters.
After more than three months, the moment Li Yunjing returned to the sect, his mood improved greatly, finally easing his inner worries.
When Li Yunjing appeared, only then did everyone realize this was his personal vehicle.
Some familiar faces stepped forward to welcome Li Yunjing and inquire about the origins of the "Celestial Patrol Ship."
Such a warship is truly a prized object; who wouldn’t want to know more about it?
"Brother Li, what warship is this? We’ve never seen it before!"
A Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator from the "Purple Cloud Faction" stepped forward with a smile and asked.
"This is the ’Celestial Patrol Ship,’ a new masterpiece from the ’Celestial Craft Hall.’ In the future, more similar models will appear within the sect."
Li Yunjing glanced at the curious eyes of his fellow sect members gathering around, smiled slightly, and explained.
"Brother Li, how many killing moves does this ’Celestial Patrol Ship’ hide?"
"What tier is the ’Celestial Patrol Ship’?"
"How does it compare to the ’Shenxiao Battleship’?"
...
Several sect members squeezed to the front, eyes fixed intently on the runes flowing over the ship’s hull, almost drooling.
Even a few elders came over out of curiosity, continuously scrutinizing the "Celestial Patrol Ship."
Li Yunjing’s intention to store the "Celestial Patrol Ship" was also temporarily interrupted.
With so many people watching, if he were to put the "Celestial Patrol Ship" away, many would likely be disappointed.
At a critical moment for gaining prestige, Li Yunjing naturally wouldn’t make such an unwise move.
Although in Li Yunjing’s view, the Sect Leader Venerable position was almost certain, after all, unexpected events might occur.
The ’Celestial Patrol Ship’ is a third-tier peak treasure, reaching half-step Nascent Soul Realm might, with the hull mainly constructed of mysterious iron mixed with refined gold, supplemented by star meteorite forging, able to withstand three full-force strikes from a half-step Nascent Soul Realm expert!"
Seeing the high enthusiasm of the crowd, Li Yunjing raised his hand to signal for silence and loudly explained.
"Wow..."
As soon as these words were spoken, a wave of exclamations erupted within the crowd.
"This ship is outfitted with nine ’Celestial Thunder Cannons’!"
Li Yunjing circled to the stern, pointed there, and continued, "There are also thirty-six concealed ’Falling Star Crossbows’ within the deck layers, with arrows infused with dual attributes of thunder and fire, capable of breaking Gang Qi and piercing Golden Core without difficulty."
Hearing this, the observing sect members clenched their fists, eyes full of yearning, with some experts even standing on tiptoes, eager not to miss any details.
"How fast does it travel?"
An elder, stroking his beard, approached, his gaze wandering over the spiritual eyes protruding from the hull.
"So it’s Elder Yu!"
Li Yunjing looked at the newcomer and responded with a smile, "The speed is unparalleled, not weaker than any third-tier warship, comparable to top-level Golden Core Realm cultivators!"
The crowd erupted, with disciples pulling out jade scrolls to furiously take notes, and in a corner, some outer sect elders whispered to each other, even the usually composed enforcers couldn’t help but clap their hands in praise.
Looking at the shocked or envious expressions of everyone, Li Yunjing felt secretly pleased, this moment to showcase strength turned out to be more perfect than expected.
"Everyone can rest assured!"
Li Yunjing loudly continued, "’Celestial Craft Hall’ Master Fu, along with Artifact Refining grandmasters and masters, intend to fill the sect’s gap in third-tier warships! In the future, they will certainly produce ’Celestial Patrol Ships’ in batches; everyone will have a chance!"
Hearing Li Yunjing’s words, smiles of anticipation broke out on everyone’s faces, their eyes sparkling with excitement.
Some true disciples couldn’t help but cheer, as if they already saw themselves navigating the heavens and earth in the "Celestial Patrol Ship."
The difference between a third-tier "Celestial Patrol Ship" and a second-tier "Cyan Cloud Ship" is enormous.
This is indeed an all-round enhancement!
With the "Celestial Patrol Ship," they would have the means, just like Li Yunjing, to fight against a group of demon cultivators single-handedly!
"Really? Brother Li, how long do we have to wait?"
A true disciple eagerly asked.
"I’m not sure about the specific time, but with the strength of the ’Celestial Craft Hall,’ they shouldn’t keep everyone waiting too long."
Li Yunjing shook his head with a smile and said, "As long as everyone cultivates diligently and enhances their own strength, there will be opportunities to compete for the pilot seat of a ’Celestial Patrol Ship’ in the future."
Everyone nodded, their eyes filled with determination.
Just then, sensing that the timing was right, Li Yunjing formed seals with both hands, chanting under his breath.
The "Celestial Patrol Ship" flashed with light and instantly shrank to the size of a palm, which Li Yunjing then stored in his "Storage Ring."
Although the crowd felt a little reluctant seeing Li Yunjing put away the "Celestial Patrol Ship," they understood it was inevitable.
After all, the "Celestial Patrol Ship" belonged to Brother Li, and it couldn’t always be on display.
"Alright, everyone should disperse now."
"I have some matters to report to the Sect Leader."
With that, Li Yunjing turned and flew toward the direction of "Shenxiao Peak."
Along the way, many disciples cast envious glances, some whispering about the "Celestial Patrol Ship" they had just witnessed.
Feeling quite proud, Li Yunjing realized that with the "Celestial Patrol Ship" and his achievements at the "Dragon-Locking Abyss," his prestige within the sect had risen significantly.
Finding an opportunity in the future to lead the sect’s army on the front lines and have a decisive battle with the "Netherworld Ghost Sect," securing victory would no longer be an issue.
When Li Yunjing arrived at "Shenxiao Peak," the disciple guarding the peak saw him and hurriedly saluted respectfully: "Brother Li, you’re back. The Sect Leader is waiting for you in the great hall."
