C114 Anxiety

"Rumble!"

Along with a loud rumble, the Divine Boat beneath Ye Heng set sail once again.

There were still seven days left until they reached the capital of the Northern Jiang Empire. In these seven days, Ye Heng decided to try and break through to the Eighth Layer of Essence Vortex Stage.

One should know that Ye Heng could be considered a little rich now. The cultivation resources he had were enough for him to cultivate peacefully for half a year.

However, although that was the safest and most reliable way to cultivate, the speed was too slow, and Ye Heng could not afford to wait.

Therefore, even though Ye Heng knew that it would waste a large amount of cultivation resources, he would still try to break through to the Eighth Layer of Essence Vortex Stage without hesitation.

In the blink of an eye, three days had passed. During this period of time, Ye Heng tried to break through to the Eighth Layer of Essence Vortex Stage, but he failed unexpectedly.

The eighth Yuan energy whirlpool had just condensed into a shape when it dissipated.

This meant that Ye Heng's three days of effort had been wasted.

However, Ye Heng was not discouraged. He continued to try again.

However, the Divine Boat seemed to have encountered some big trouble. The boat shook violently.

Under such circumstances, it was extremely difficult to cultivate in peace.

Although Ye Heng could forcefully continue cultivating, the effect would be abnormally low.

One should know that the most important factor in breaking through to the next realm was a quiet environment.

If he couldn't even satisfy this requirement, he was afraid that he would most likely fail in his attempt to break through to the next realm.

This was a theory that the ancient people had practiced for thousands of times, and it was a theory that had never changed since ancient times.

It was also a good opportunity to see what had happened. If there was any danger, he would be able to take precautions in advance.

Suppressing his urge to break through to the Eighth Layer of Essence Vortex Stage, Ye Heng walked to the deck of the Divine Boat.

At this moment, the deck of the Divine Boat was filled with people. Standing at the highest point of the deck was still Wan Yuansan, who was wearing simple clothes and giving off an imposing aura.

He glanced around casually. Besides Faang Yang, Faang Pi, and Ye Wuming, Ye Heng found two other familiar figures.

One was Zhang Heng, and the other was the veiled woman who gave Ye Heng a sense of familiarity.

Furthermore, these two people were actually standing together.

This made Ye Heng even more puzzled.

However, this was not the time to pursue these matters.

Putting away his thoughts, Ye Heng walked slowly to Faang Yang, Faang Pi, and Ye Wuming's side.

"Mr Ye, you have finally come out. " Faang Pi, who was the first to see Ye Heng, showed a trace of excitement on his face. He jogged all the way to Ye Heng's side and chirped non-stop like a sparrow.

Faang Yang sighed after seeing his cousin's expression. He walked forward and pulled Faang Pi, who kept talking, down. He smiled awkwardly and said to Ye Heng, "Sorry, Mr Ye, sorry for making you laugh. "

"It's fine. " Ye Heng smiled casually. He didn't mind it at all. Then he turned around and met Ye Wuming, who was following behind Faang Yang.

In a place that Faang Yang and Faang Pi didn't notice, Ye Wuming slightly nodded his head at Ye Heng. Then, he changed into his previous smiling face and said to Ye Heng, "Little brother Ye, why are you here?"

Ye Heng sighed and replied. "That's right. It's easier said than done to calm down and cultivate after such a big commotion. "

The two of them were like two friends who had just gotten to know each other for a short period of time. They talked about it calmly.

On that day, it was as if nothing had happened in Ye Wuming's room.

"Oh right, little brother Fang, you came the earliest. Do you know anything?" At this moment, Ye Wuming turned his eyes to Faang Yang and asked him indifferently.

Faang Yang shook his head and answered helplessly, "I only came a little earlier than you guys. I don't know what happened. "

While they were talking, Ye Heng's eyes swept across the Divine Boat's Outer Sect. However, what he saw was darkness.

It was as if there was a black curtain covering the surface of the Divine Boat's hull, allowing people to see what was happening outside.

Although it was pitch black, the interior of the Divine Boat's hull was still brightly lit, and the light was exceptionally abundant.

Along the Divine Boat's ship, dozens of milky white rays of light shot out. They gathered in the sky and condensed into a light ball the size of a human head, illuminating the interior of the Divine Boat.

These milky white rays of light were emitted from dozens of Radiant Light Stones. Under the effect of the Yuan Power array on the Divine Boat, it was able to activate such a miraculous effect.

More and more people gathered on the deck of the Divine Boat. Soon, there were more than five hundred people, which was a bit more than the last time the auction was held.

Moreover, the number of people continued to increase.

It seemed like Wan Yuansan's Divine Boat was really amazing. It could actually accommodate so many people.

The reputation of the number one Chamber of Commerce in the Northern Jiang Empire was not just for show.

At this moment, the Divine Boat suddenly shook and tilted at a full 45 degrees.

Ye Heng, who had never slacked off training, immediately reacted.

He saw Ye Heng grab the edge of the Divine Boat with his left hand and then his right hand reached out. In a short moment, he firmly grabbed the collar of Faang Yang, Faang Pi, and Ye Wuming's clothes.

Almost at the same time that Ye Heng finished doing these things, the hull of the Divine Boat had just tilted 45 degrees.

All of this happened too quickly. Most of them were thrown to the other side of the Divine Boat before they could figure out what had happened.

Fortunately, the edge of the Divine Boat's ship was protected by an elemental energy formation, so when the hull tilted, it automatically activated.

Hence, the group of people crashed straight into the elastic light curtain. They did not suffer much damage, but they were still feeling dizzy.

As for Faang Yang, Faang Pi, and Ye Wuming, because of Ye Heng's help, they were only able to avoid death.

When the three of them came back to their senses, the tilted ship immediately returned to normal.

This commotion came quickly, but also quickly. In total, it only took five breaths of time.

An old man appeared behind Wan Yuansan, who was standing at the top of the deck. His feet seemed to have grown nails as he firmly grabbed Wan Yuansan's shoulder.

This made him not fly backwards like the others.

However, after the old man finished doing this, he strangely disappeared.

Most of the people didn't pay attention to it because of their own matters. Even Ye Heng only caught a glimpse of it.

That old man, could it be that he was the Essence Image Stage warrior who defeated that group of bandits with a single strike?

Ye Heng didn't care too much about certain important matters, which was why he had forgotten the name of the bandit group in the blink of an eye. However, that matter was still clearly remembered in his mind.

That's right, that strange movement technique only made sense when he was an Essence Image Stage expert.

"Hey, what exactly happened?"

"Brat with the surname of Wan, quickly give me an explanation. "

"Brother Wan, shouldn't you explain the current situation to everyone?"

. . .

The crowd stabilized their bodies and asked Wan Yuansan loudly.

Those with hot tempers had already started cursing. Those with good tempers and manners also had unfriendly expressions on their faces. Although their words were calm, they were changing ways to get Wan Yuansan to give an explanation.

"Alright everyone, can you all quiet down and listen to what I have to say?"

Wan Yuansan coughed and said.

Although his voice wasn't loud, it was exceptionally clear to everyone's ears.

Because his strength wasn't high, he must have used some kind of small tool.

Ye Heng's eyes swept across the room. After a while, he found a black round crystal in front of Wan Yuansan's collar.

At first glance, the black crystal looked like an ornament on his shirt, but in fact, it was a Yuan energy tool to amplify his voice.

Ye Heng slightly focused his mind and felt a faintly discernible Essence Strength Undulation on the black crystal.

The noisy crowd suddenly quieted down at this moment. Even those hot-tempered people did not continue to roar for some reason.

Even they themselves felt very strange and stood in a daze on the spot.

It seemed that not only could that thing amplify sound, it could also emit a spiritual power that made people want to obey it.

Of course, this spiritual power was not powerful and did not carry any offensive power. Most likely, warriors above the fifth level of the Origin Vortex could directly ignore it.

People with strong willpower would naturally not be affected.

And Ye Heng coincided with the above two points, so he was not affected at all.

As for Faang Yang, Faang Pi, and Ye Wuming who were next to Ye Heng, they were different. The three of them had just been affected.

"Cough!"

Ye Heng coughed lightly.

That cough was like thunder that exploded beside the ears of Faang Yang, Faang Pi, and Ye Wuming.

The three of them who were still confused just now immediately woke up.

After doing all of this, Ye Heng was too lazy to wake the others up. After all, Wan Yuansan did not want to do anything out of line, so Ye Heng only woke up the people who were related to him.

The next moment, Wan Yuansan, who was standing at the top of the deck, spoke again.

"I believe all of you must be in a panic right now, but don't worry. I, Wan Yuansan, guarantee you with my life that I will let you all reach King City safely. So, please calm down and return to your rooms to wait quietly. "

After hearing Wan Yuansan's words, the crowd began to move slowly. In a short while, more than half of the five hundred people had left, and the rest were also retreating.

The weaker ones were affected by the power in Wan Yuansan's words, so they naturally left. The stronger ones also guessed that Wan Yuansan didn't want to say anything, so they decided to find another way.

A trace of uneasiness spread in Ye Heng's heart.
