Although the atmosphere had not yet descended into a panic, it was gradually deteriorating.

Due to the interception by those mysterious grandmasters, the Pingtian Ship had been drifting in the sky for a full nine days, causing delays for many travelers.

Furthermore, the ongoing battle made them worry about their own safety.

Although Zong Sanping had maintained a solid protection around the Pingtian Ship, ensuring no casualties to this point and relative safety on board,

what if?

What if Zong Sanping were to be defeated, or some unforeseen event occurred that caused the aftershocks of the battle to endanger the ship?

Those who ranked on the Earthly List and were of the Seventh Rank had the power to connect with heaven and earth with every move, enough to shake mountains and rivers.

Almost everyone had been staying behind closed doors for the past two days, bolting their doors shut and avoiding going out unless absolutely necessary.

The sorcerers onboard had become extraordinarily busy, engaged in creating Sky-controlling Jade Talismans and Heating Jade Talismans for people.

Many martial cultivators possessed the ability to fly in the skies by the Sixth Grade, yet they could only do so at low altitudes of about ten yards.

The Pingtian Ship, on the other hand, sailed at an altitude of ten thousand yards, far above thirty-three thousand meters from the ground, where the strong Gang Winds roared and the cold was bone-chilling, a stark difference from the conditions at lower altitudes.

Chu Xisheng was somewhat tempted.

However, once he inquired about the price, he lost interest.

——A single Sky-controlling Jade Talisman was incredibly valued at ten thousand Demon Silver.

This was merely a Seventh-Rank Jade Talisman, and under normal circumstances would not exceed a thousand taels, yet now it had skyrocketed to tenfold that amount.

The key was that with Bai Xiaozhao, the Five-tailed Wind Beast, and the two sorcerers Lu Luanti and Chu Yunyun here, there was no fear of dying from a fall from the ship.

Chu Xisheng was even more confident in himself, having cross-trained the Domineering Body and mastered the Phantom Cloud Trace rather well.

Although he lacked the ability to fly, he believed that even if he were to jump from an altitude of ten thousand yards now, he should be unharmed.

Chu Ming and her servants similarly kept to themselves, behind closed doors.

Since that sparring session, Chu Ming had rarely been seen by others.

After the attack on the Pingtian Ship, the lady confined herself within the chambers and stopped stepping outside even for a bit.

It was said that there was a big hole broken at the rear end of the ship that had yet to be repaired.

Yet Chu Ming and her servants would rather stay inside their damaged room than venture out.

Ye Zhiqiu had gone to the stern tower and usually stayed there.

Two days ago, Ye Zhiqiu had shone brilliantly, facing a martial cultivator from the Earthly List in battle and astonishingly fought seven hundred and thirty-two moves without defeat, persisting for half a moment.

——Although this was attributed to the enhancement of the Pingtian Ship, which had increased Ye Zhiqiu’s cultivation by one rank, and with Zong Sanping’s Pingtian Sword forcibly reducing the opponent’s cultivation and Bloodline among other things down to a Fourth-Grade tier.

However, Ye Zhiqiu’s Martial Arts prowess and Bloodline Talent at the Super Heavenly Pillar Level were undeniably showcased in this battle.

Her cultivation was at the Fifth Grade Lower Tier, but the combat power she displayed was no less than that of the four Fourth-grade Taoists under the Sanping Hermit’s command.

Without a doubt, this was of a Super Heavenly Pillar Level.

Most of the so-called Super Geniuses on the Qingyun List would start to diverge in strength after entering the Fifth Grade.

Many among them would be exposed for their true skills, and although retaining potential for further progress, they would no longer have super-level combat abilities.

Their futures, the vast majority of them, were limited to Third Grade Lower Tier, barely touching the threshold of the Earthly List.

Only those with super-level combat strengths and still astonishingly fast cultivation speeds were referred to as ‘Heavenly Pillars’.

And those above Heavenly Pillars would continue to have the capability to contend against martial cultivators one rank higher even after reaching the Fifth Grade.

After this battle, all the martial cultivators on the ship were left deeply shaken.

Whenever they saw Ye Zhiqiu on a daily basis, they had unusual looks in their eyes, filled with admiration and wariness.

It was only after this battle that Chu Xisheng, through Chu Yunyun’s words, learned that Ye Zhiqiu possessed three incredibly powerful top-tier talents.

——Dutian Thunder God, Supreme Golden Body, Innate Qi.

Chu Xisheng marveled inwardly.

He pondered that Ye Zhiqiu’s path to soaring heights should begin from here.

The Sect’s Elder Council was not blind; they would not miss nurturing such a Super Heavenly Pillar Level talent.

Ye Zhiqiu was still very young.

A twenty-eight-year-old at the Fifth Grade might not compare to those figures on the Qingyun General List, but her future remained immensely vast.

Chu Xisheng suppressed the restlessness in his heart and quietly waited for the right moment.

Then, in the early hours of the fourth day, following another fierce battle between the Sanping Hermit and the Earthly List masters, Chu Xisheng did not hesitate to melt the ice layers sealing the Nine Phoenix Crown and Xiang Liu’s Heart and prepared the secret medicines for use.

The secret medicine for the Seventh Level of the ‘Formless Skill’ transformed into clusters of green and red liquids, floating in midair.

Nine clusters of green, nine clusters of red forming a circle that rotated in a cycle, was quite mesmerizing.

Chu Xisheng felt that it contained extremely profound mysteries of the Heavenly Dao.

Yet he had no interest in pondering or admiring it.

The secret medicine, when consumed within a moment of its preparation, had the best effect.

After this period passed, the potency would gradually diminish, and extraneous elements from the surrounding environment would infiltrate it, increasing the impurities within the medicine.

And as the night dragged on, dreams could multiply—

Without hesitation, Chu Xisheng consumed both portions of the secret medicine.

His heart immediately thudded like a thunderclap.

His robust heart pumped massive amounts of blood to his limbs and every nook and cranny of his body.

Chu Xisheng felt as though his bones were about to split, as if something was being squeezed out and something else was being forced in.

His breath was scorching, as if he were inhaling and exhaling flames.

And as time passed, Chu Xisheng’s entire body truly began to blaze with crimson flames.

Because at this moment, Chu Xisheng was also breaking through his ‘Nine Refinements of Extreme Essence Purple Gold Body.’

As the Bloodline Seal was lifted, the flesh and blood within his body, starting from around his heart, began to collapse and rebuild bit by bit.
