I, Who Hate Marine So Much, Have Become A Future Nika?

Chapter 295: Foundation Building vs. Gold Core!

At great cost, the Floating Sky City was built. Originally, Zhong Cang had some concerns - afraid that the technology from his previous life would not adapt well to this world.

Fortunately, before the construction, Zhong Cang noticed this and therefore, the city he built was not simply a technological product, but a combination of cultivation and technology.

The hybrid manufacturing allowed the Floating Sky City to incorporate the advantages of both cultivation and technology, making it function perfectly.

Treating the city as his throne, Zhong Cang resembled a Heavenly Emperor surveying the mortal world, constantly throwing down thunderous nails.

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

With the thunderous might of the nails, the mountains trembled and all things were filled with fear.

With each thunderous nail thrown, a resounding roar echoed through the heavens and the earth.

As Zhong Cang's enemies, those remnants of immortality could only tremble in fear, waiting for their death.

The thunder staff that tore through the sky made it impossible for them to dodge or resist.

In this way, within just two or three days, Zhong Cang, who controlled the Floating Sky City, had cleared away more than half of the remnants of immortality in the Azure Ash World.

During this process, the shipborne cultivators also played a significant role.

They killed the weak or injured remnants of immortality.

At the same time, these cultivators could provide great assistance to Zhong Cang when facing powerful remnants of immortality.

It was not a direct confrontation - cultivators had the ability to directly kill Gold Core level remnants of immortality. However, in war, casualties were inevitable.

Zhong Cang, who did not want his fellow sect members to die here, issued a special order to them.

"Don't think about killing the monsters. Use all your means to locate the monsters and restrict them for a few breaths."

In response to this order, the group of Cloud Firmament Sect cultivators executed it effortlessly.

Before returning to the Cloud Firmament Sect, while in the Cloud Dream Dragon City, Zhong Cang had the idea of building a sky-based strike system.

At that time, he was clear that for this strike system, the most difficult part was not the lack of attack power, but the attack that took a few breaths to arrive, making it difficult to hit agile opponents.

Not discouraged by this problem, Zhong Cang thought of a solution.

In the end, the method he came up with was to restrict the enemy and wait for the sky-based weapons to descend.

However, at that time, Zhong Cang was still thinking about restricting the enemy himself.

After returning to the sect and having the idea of building the Floating Sky City, Zhong Cang foresaw that in the future, it would be the cultivators inside the Floating Sky City who would restrict the enemy.

They would serve as the "eyes" or "hands" of the Floating Sky City, searching for enemies and creating opportunities for Zhong Cang.

Taking this into consideration, when building the Floating Sky City, Zhong Cang asked the array Grandmasters and artifact Grandmasters to refine a batch of Immortal Binding Ropes, Restriction Talismans, and Soul-Reflecting Mirrors.

These three items were considered standard equipment for the shipborne cultivators of the Floating Sky City.

Currently, these treasures were playing their roles.

When encountering powerful monsters, the Cloud Firmament Sect cultivators would contact Zhong Cang and the Array Spirit, Xiao Qiong, while using their mana to drive the Immortal Binding Ropes, causing them to extend and thicken, transforming into sturdy ropes to bind these monsters.

Hmm... It was difficult for individual Immortal Binding Ropes to bind powerful remnants of immortality.

But that didn't matter. There were many cultivators, if one couldn't do it, then two, if two couldn't do it, then three, five, seven, ten, one hundred...

With a large number of cultivators taking action, along with the Restriction Talismans and Soul-Reflecting Mirrors, they could always bind these remnants of immortality.

- Apart from the Law Treasure refined by Zhong Cang, the Cloud Firmament Sect cultivators were not just sitting idle.

Some cultivators had cultivated unique secret techniques, such as Shadow Stepping, Earth Drawing Prison, Quicksand Art, Five Spirit Sealing, Qiankun Qi Capture, and so on.

These spells can also bind enemies.

When combined, even the remnants of the Gold Core level of longevity can be trapped for a few breaths if discovered.

Then, when they are bound, the Thunderbolt Sky Nail will descend from the sky like a pillar, nailing them to the ground.

With the aerial bombardment from the Floating Sky City and the sweeping of the shipborne cultivators on the ground, the Azure Ash World region is being rapidly reclaimed by Zhong Cang and others.

This scene has also been observed by some powerful individuals within the sect through various means.

This has aroused great interest in the Floating Sky City among them.

"The war can be fought like this!"

"This Floating Sky City is not bad."

"If there is a Floating Sky City, can I also dominate a realm like Zhong Cang, suppressing it alone..."

The powerful combat strength, high mobility, and other abilities of the Floating Sky City have deeply fascinated the Gold Core and Nascent Soul cultivators within the Cloud Firmament Sect.

Of course, Zhong Cang's talent is too high, his prestige is too heavy, and he is almost locked in as the future sect master, so they dare not forcefully take away Zhong Cang's things.

These interested individuals are thinking of creating their own.

These people immediately contacted the sect's array masters and weapon refiners to inquire about how to build a Sky City.

However, within the sect, the enthusiasm of the Gold Core cultivators only lasted for half a day.

It's not that they are no longer interested in the Floating Sky City, but rather they cannot afford to build it.

The role of spirit stones is significant, and their purchasing power is high. Even Gold Core cultivators cannot come up with billions of spirit stones to build such a magnificent war weapon.

Even if they have the money, they cannot find the people.

Not everyone can easily gather tens of thousands of cultivators and several array grandmasters and weapon refiners to build a Sky City for themselves.

Zhong Cang can do it because he has the outstanding record of dominating a domain, his high talent has gained recognition from others, he has been granted the Heavenly Heart technique, and he has the support of the sect. Only then can the array grandmasters take action. Others do not have this privilege.

Even some powerful Gold Core families have bitterly discovered that, apart from emptying themselves and their friends and family, it would take more than a hundred years to build a Floating Sky City on their own.

As for Nascent Soul cultivators, they can only shorten this time to several decades.

It is simply impossible to build it within a year, like Zhong Cang.

It can only be said that individuals, even families, cannot compare to powerful sects.

Fortunately, the bitter realization of other Gold Core elders does not fall on Zhong Cang.

After witnessing the power of the Floating Sky City, the plan to build ships and cities was immediately launched within the sect and prioritized as the first sequence.

This means that the sect will prioritize the construction of the Floating Sky City, leaving everything else behind.

And this time, the sect built thirty-three at once.

"Thirty-three, did they empty the sect's reserves?"

In the Yunxiao Hall, after hearing the orders from Sect Master Lin Yuan, as well as the Law Enforcement Hall Master and other hall masters, Zheng Lao's expression changed slightly.

As the one who personally built the Floating Sky City, the Qiantian, he knows very well how many resources it took to build one.

Thirty-three, saying that it emptied the Cloud Firmament Sect is not an exaggeration at all.

Zheng Lao sighed, but Sect Master Lin Yuan said indifferently, "It doesn't matter. Resources are always exchanged for strength. There are many undiscovered lower realms. As long as our strength is strong enough, we can earn back the spirit stones used to build the Sky City."

At this point, Sect Master Lin Yuan looked up at the sky and said with a deep gaze, "Moreover, for us now, emptying our reserves is not a bad thing."

"???"

"What does it mean... hmm!"

Upon hearing the words of the sect master, Grandmaster Zheng Laoxian was initially puzzled, but soon he figured out something and his expression became serious.

However, he quickly concealed his emotions and respectfully said, "Master, I understand what you mean. I will quickly build Tiancheng as you requested."

After speaking, he thought of something and turned to the sect master, saying, "By the way, Master, I wonder if the Tiancheng we are going to build next will be modeled after the Qiantian ship, or if we will build different attribute Tianchengs according to Cang'er's concept and connect them with formations."

Upon hearing the inquiry, the sect master Lin Yuan did not hesitate for too long before speaking, "Naturally, we will follow Cang'er's suggestion. This concept of Tiancheng was proposed by him, and I trust him."

As the master of the sect, a Nascent Soul cultivator, believing in Cang Zhong's concept may seem strange, but everyone in the room did not oppose it.

The reason for this is that in the previous period of time, Cang Zhong had proven his correctness through a series of continuous victories.

Until obvious mistakes or omissions appear, others will continue to believe in Cang Zhong.

In this way, the grand plan of the sect began.

In Azure Ash World, the cultivators led by Cang Zhong have also reached the final stage of besieging the remnants of the Longevity Clan.

As expected, in the final stage, the remnants of the Longevity Clan put up the most intense resistance, and their divine envoys also revealed their traces for the first time.

"Damn humans, dare to disturb my advancement, I will turn all of you into fertilizer!"

The roar of the divine envoy shook the earth.

Looking at its massive figure like a mountain, many cultivators showed fear.

Even Cang Zhong himself was somewhat astonished.

"Isn't Azure Ash World only able to accommodate the strength of the early Gold Core stage?"

"What is this monster?"

"However, it can cultivate such terrifying monsters and be called messengers of the gods. Even if they are evil gods, they cannot be underestimated."

The reason why Cang Zhong was amazed was that the monster in front of him was 1,300 meters long.

Although it had the shape of a long dragon, it was still terrifyingly huge.

What was even more frightening was that even from a distance, Cang Zhong could feel the extremely abundant energy within it, like the sun.

The majestic energy even affected the natural environment.

With its breath, strange flowers bloomed around it, and trees grew lushly.

Even if a cultivator accidentally entered its domain, the next moment, branches and buds would grow on their bodies.

Such a domain made it so that low-level cultivators didn't even have the qualifications to participate in the battle.

This powerful scene naturally made Cang Zhong's expression not too good.

And it wasn't just Cang Zhong who was surprised. The exotic Night Catwoman Xin Xuan was also somewhat astonished as she looked at this massive monster.

"So powerful, how is this possible... it's not supposed to be a Divine Envoy at the Eye level?"

Although she despised the 'arrogance' and dominance of cultivators, as a Night Catwoman, Xin Xuan hated the evil gods that had been at war with them for thousands of years even more.

Therefore, Xin Xuan had always been thinking about 'cooperating' with cultivators.

Since it was cooperation, she naturally considered that after reconciling with humans, they would jointly face the Divine Envoys of the evil gods.

Therefore, while paying attention to human cultivators, the catwoman Xin Xuan also paid attention to the enemies entering Azure Ash World.

According to what she knows, the strength of the eye-level divine envoy Yongzuo is only at the Gold Core Low Grade level, so it shouldn't be so powerful.

Shen Xuan's doubts were quickly answered.

A bewitching voice reached her ears from a far distance.

"Don't be surprised. Normally, Yongzuo's strength is indeed only at the eye-level lower grade (Gold Core Junior) level."

"But Azure Ash World has a Spiritual Root of Heaven and Earth, which is very compatible with the Longevity Seed. When the two are integrated, the power of that Spiritual Root will increase by a hundredfold..."

At this point, the voice paused for a moment before continuing, "If the integration of the Spiritual Root is completed, and Azure Ash World is occupied and offered to the Heavenly Mother of Longevity, it is possible for the Longevity Seed to directly enter the 'hand' level divine envoy (Nascent Soul) with the power of sacrifice, combined with the foundation of the Spiritual Root of Heaven and Earth. However, the human attack shattered his plan."

"However, even if the plan was not completed as expected, with the amplification of the Spiritual Root of Heaven and Earth, his strength is still at the Gold Core Late Stage. Xuan'er, you must be careful in the mortal realm."

"Madam, Shen Xuan understands."

The one addressed as Madam by Shen Xuan is a powerful being from a foreign land.

Just as the strong individuals from the Cloud Firmament Sect can observe the battle situation in Azure Ash World through various means, the foreign land can also observe the battle through Shen Xuan and others in Azure Ash World.

It can be said that the current battle between Zhong Cang and the remnants of the Longevity Seed is being closely watched by many powerful beings.

However, Zhong Cang is completely unaware of this and has no intention to think about it.

Feeling the power of the divine envoy in front of him, a hint of...smile appeared at the corner of Zhong Cang's mouth.

"Hahaha, to encounter such a powerful monster in the mortal realm, good, good, good. Everyone, I hope you can let me have some fun!"

"?!!"

"Insect, how dare you insult me!"

Facing a formidable enemy, Zhong Cang showed a rather delighted expression, which infuriated the divine envoy Yongzuo.

It is indeed impossible for a Foundation Building Late Stage to challenge a Gold Core Late Stage.

The situation was naturally not as simple as it seemed.

Some even thought that Zhong Cang had won too many times and had become arrogant in his stride.

The foreign powerhouses who observed through Shen Xuan were also somewhat astonished.

"Foundation Building challenging Gold Core, and even Gold Core Late Stage, is he crazy?"

(End of this chapter)

But what if it was a Gold Core Early Stage challenging a Gold Core Late Stage?

He even dares to say that his advantage is...significant.

In such a world, the strength of the divine envoy Yongzuo is greatly limited, while Zhong Cang can act without any worries.

In this situation, Zhong Cang's desire for a thrilling battle was seen as arrogance.

"This kid is seeking death!"

Well, let's forget about that statement.

In this situation, Zhong Cang naturally does not fear the divine envoy Yongzuo of the Longevity Seed.

Especially in the current Azure Ash World, the cultivation limit is only at the Gold Core Early Stage.

But was Zhong Cang really arrogant?

With a cultivation gap between Foundation Building Late Stage and Gold Core Late Stage, no one had high hopes for Zhong Cang.

"To dare to make such arrogant remarks...Shen Xuan, you're right, humans are indeed too arrogant!"

Even the cultivators of the Cloud Firmament Sect looked at Zhong Cang with astonishment.
