Chapter 7112 Miao Yin

This battleship was the color of blood. There was a ferocious beast totem carved across the entire hull, and it gave off a frightening aura.

“What a large talisman!”

When they saw the battleship, both Long Chen and Zi Yan were surprised. They had a certain understanding of talismans, and could tell that the beast totem was actually a talisman. Such a huge talisman imprinted onto a battleship was something that they had never seen before.

Inscribing runes onto talismans required special talisman paper. Afterwards, it was possible to imprint them onto other items. But with how difficult the process was, especially with high level talismans, most people wouldn’t bother. The reason was that failure would completely ruin the item. Thus, such a thing was very rare.

That was even more true when it came to imprinting a talisman onto a complex structure. The difficulty of creating this battleship was probably heaven-defying. Even ignoring the sheer power of that talisman, someone who dared to do such a thing had to be an absolute grandmaster in the art of talismans. They also had to have immense boldness and an innovative mind.

Based on its aura, this talisman was made with the essence blood of a wild beast. That beast had to have been a triple-manifestation Divine Sovereign! A triple-manifestation Divine Sovereign’s essence blood had been used to inscribe a talisman directly onto the battleship. The master of that battleship had to be extraordinary.

The battleship was originally going in a direction perpendicular to Long Chen and Zi Yan’s flying boat. But it actually chased after them, and it locked down onto them. It seemed that they had hostile intentions.

“You two, please stop. My master wishes to invite you for a chat.”

A man in golden armor stood atop the prow. The helm’s visor was lifted, and his eyes were icy and arrogant. Although his words could be considered courteous, it was clear that he would not take “no” for an answer. It was obviously more of an order than an invitation.

Furthermore, his aura was very powerful. He was clearly an expert. Killing intent still lingered around him from what appeared to be a recent clash. He was no greenhouse flower, but rather someone used to fighting.

“And if we refuse?” asked Long Chen expressionlessly.

“Your flying boat has no fighting power. We’ve already locked it down. Your life or death can be decided by a single thought of my master. I’d advise you to be smart.”

As expected, the man immediately showed his true face. And indeed, he was entirely correct. Their flying boat was only used for travelling and had no fighting capabilities. After all, Zheng Wenlong had prepared it for Long Chen. With his power, wouldn’t it have been a joke if Zheng Wenlong had sent guards to accompany him?

Long Chen and Zi Yan exchanged a look. They were both speechless. They were going to deal with other people’s trouble, yet here they were, encountering trouble of their own before even getting to their target. Could it be that even after merging with the Dao, Long Chen’s luck refused to improve? Or was it that the heavens had decided that he was the perfect one to deal with a group of unlucky bastards?

In any case, Long Chen’s and Zi Yan’s expressions could hardly be more indifferent. Seeing this, the golden-armored man was outraged. He waved his hand, and hundreds of armored warriors appeared by his side. Every single one of them held a black bow. Light sparkled atop the sharp arrowtips. These arrows were imbued with law power, and they all pointed at Long Chen and Zi Yan.

The golden-armored man sneered. “I don’t like killing people for no reason. Don’t force my hand!”

“Oh? It seems like you might not be fated to die today!” Long Chen was a bit surprised. The moment these people pointed their weapons at him, they triggered his killing intent. They had no idea that they were probably drawing their last breath. But the man’s last sentence actually made Long Chen hold back. It appeared that despite being exceedingly arrogant, he was not one to wantonly slaughter innocent people. Thus, Long Chen was also willing to give him a chance.

Surprisingly, Zi Yan didn’t even attempt to smooth things over. “He’s not a good person. It won’t matter if you kill him.”

Seeing that Long Chen and Zi Yan were still so unperturbed with this many arrows pointed at them, the golden-armored man was outraged, but also shocked. His battleship could even shake a triple-manifestation Divine Sovereign. As for the arrows, they were top grade Divine Sovereign law items and had the new era’s divine runes carved onto them. Even a triple-manifestation Divine Sovereign would not be able to view them lightly. However, these two didn’t seem to hold them in any regard at all. That made him feel that something was wrong.

Just as he was preparing to invite his master out, Long Chen raised his hand toward their battleship, then swung it down.

The golden-armored man’s hair instantly stood on end. A sense of impending crisis soared inside his heart. He instinctively roared, “Defend!”

The battleship’s runes lit up. A divine diagram shaped like a golden tortoise shell appeared in front of the battleship.

Meanwhile, endless stars converged in the sky. They transformed into a giant palm, so huge that the battleship looked like a child’s paper boat underneath it. The astral hand grabbed it, just like that.

Wow, the Star Cloud Hand is even stronger than I imagined!

Long Chen was actually quite excited seeing this. This was his first time using the Star Cloud Hand, and he hadn’t expected it to be so marvelous. He could use it even faster and more smoothly than other divine abilities. That feeling couldn’t be described with words.

He had no way of knowing that this attack was only this strong in his hands. Just like the Star Cloud Steps, the vast majority of nine star heirs would never reach the divine mastery level in their lifetime. Moreover, the reason Long Chen’s Star Cloud Hand had such power was his mastery over Heaven-Earth power.

The Star Cloud Hand held the battleship firmly in its grasp. The battleship’s runes ignited, but they were unable to do anything to it.

“Your Lordship, we had no malice towards you! We can talk this out!”

The golden-armored man was panicking. His arrogance was nowhere to be seen. He had never expected this seemingly ordinary person to possess such terrifying power.

“No malice? Talk it out?” Long Chen snorted disdainfully. “From what I recall, you said you wanted to talk just now. But what did you do when I said I wasn’t interested?”

Long Chen slowly bent his fingers. The astral hand slowly tightened in response, and the battleship's barrier cracked.

The golden-armored man’s soul almost fled in terror. This was the battleship’s greatest defense, something capable of blocking the attack of a triple-manifestation Divine Sovereign. However, it appeared incredibly fragile in front of this astral hand.

Just then, a woman’s voice rang out. “Can I please ask you to show mercy? My name is Miao Yin. I don’t know how my subordinates offended you, but allow me to apologize on their behalf.”

Every single word of hers was filled with a strange charm that drew out a person’s pity. A single word could extinguish a person’s rage.

Zi Yan’s interest was immediately piqued.
