Actually, for Qi Tian, the best way to deal with such a magic attack would be to use the Heavenly Dao Engine to directly absorb the fireball into the engine, which could then transform the fireball into its fuel. However, doing so would risk exposing his secret. If it were in the Great Zhao Nation, he could do so as he had enough confidence to control the situation, and he wouldn’t need to worry about exposing any secrets. But on a flying sail ship, it definitely wouldn’t work. Neither Liang Yuqi nor the Wanjie Commerce behind her could be controlled by him. If he exposed his secrets in front of them, Qi Tian should be psychologically prepared to be devoured by them, bones and all.

Since the Heavenly Dao Engine couldn’t be used, Qi Tian could only rely on the Linked-Chain Armor. He had spent nearly tens of millions of low-grade spirit stones to acquire this protective gear at auction. When Liang Yuqi presided over the auction, she claimed that the Linked-Chain Armor was personally refined by Zhang Jun, the leader of the Eight Pill Alliance. It could withstand attacks from cultivators at the late stage of the Gold Core Realm. This was his first time using the Linked-Chain Armor, and he was not sure if it would work. However, at this point, he had no choice but to believe it.

With a bang, the fireball smashed heavily onto the Linked-Chain Armor. The glyphs on the armor flickered and trembled in the air. The fireball was annihilated in an instant, and other than the glyphs on the surface of the armor becoming slightly dimmer, there were no other changes.

Qi Tian was thrilled. The defensive power of the Linked-Chain Armor was quite good, meeting his expectations, and he was relatively satisfied. He didn’t dare to waste a moment’s time. He kept the Linked-Chain Armor around him and rushed into the cabin at a blistering speed, as if his butt was on fire.

Neither Liang Yuqinor Wan Xiaolan had time to see how Qi Tian had blocked the fireball. The flying sail ship behind them had continuously launched attacks, and the two of them were already in a state of panic. However, this didn’t mean Qi Tianwent unnoticed. The other Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators sailing with them all saw how Qi Tianhad defended against the attack. Some marveled at Qi Tianhaving a powerful treasure. Without it, he would have ended up like their unlucky comrade who was burned to ashes by the fireball. Others, their eyes flickering, had their thoughts turning rapidly.

The previous day, a successful auction staged by the Eight Pill Alliance at the Wanjie Commerce auction house had been big news in Wanjie City. A significant number of cultivators took note of the event. Some paid attention out of curiosity, but others were very observant, keeping a close eye on the auctioned items and the bidders, committing them to memory. Even though Qi Tianhadn’t shown his face, it was impossible to hide the fact that he had purchased several treasures like the Linked-Chain Armor. The moment he used it, it was immediately recognized.

Qi Tian had no idea he had been marked. He rushed into the cabin before the next fireball fell towards him. Qi Tianhadn’t been inside the cabin before. In his previous life, he had undergone some training and watched many TV shows and films, so he was not entirely unfamiliar with the cabin. He could at least recognize things like the helm and the compass. However, when he walked into the cabin of the flying sail ship, he found that his experience from his previous life didn’t apply here at all.

There was no helm or compass in the cabin, only various arrays and glyphs. To change the speed, direction, and other parameters of the flying sail ship, one had to operate the array, but Qi Tianknew nothing about these arrays. Qi Tian was not a rookie when it came to arrays. He had studied and mastered some, but those in the cabin were like seeing a strange language he didn’t understand.

Just then, Liang Yuqi shouted, “Qi Tian, look to your left when you enter the cabin! That’s the main operating console of the flying sail ship. There are eighteen arrays on it. You need to pull out the Speed Anchor plugged into the second array and plug it into the control slot of the array below. You don’t have to worry about the rest.”

With Liang Yuqi’s guidance, Qi Tian felt a sense of relief. He rushed to the front of the main console and, according to Liang Yuqi’s instructions, pulled out the Speed Anchor from the second array and swiftly plugged it into the control slot of the array below.

When Qi Tian pulled the Speed Anchor out, he felt the flying sail ship pause for a moment. But when he plugged the Speed Anchor into the lower array, the ship suddenly began to accelerate. He could distinctly feel the forward-pulling force beneath his feet. Any ordinary person standing here would have been flung backward.

The flying sail ship was accelerating rapidly, and the other ship that had been closely following it from behind was now quite far away. As soon as they sped up, the distance between the two ships began to widen quickly. The cultivator from the Gold Core Realm standing at the bow of the pursuing ship, attacking Liang Yuqi and the others, immediately realized something was wrong. He quickly ordered their ship to speed up as well, determined to keep up with Liang Yuqiand the others.

As the distance between two flying sail ships increased, the attacks from the chaser had become nearly impossible to land. A cultivator’s attack had its range limits. They couldn’t just throw as far as they wanted. Moreover, the dense fog here was a considerable hindrance and significantly affected the cultivators’ combat power.
