Chapter 202: Airborne Attack
Meng Zhang sat at the bow of the boat feeling a bit amused. He spared no expense in taking care of his two spirit pets, providing them with everything they needed including spiritual rice, fruits, and various elixirs that could be consumed by spirit pets. Even an ordinary Taiyi Sect Inner-Sect Disciple would not have such treatment. If he had such conditions when he was cultivating, his cultivation base would have progressed faster and he would not have wasted so much time.
Jin Qiao'er took out a bunch of snacks that young girls would eat, but it was impossible to tempt Liu Li (Colored Glaze). As expected, Liu Li (Colored Glaze) did not even look at the pile of things that Jin Qiao'er took out. With a casual glance, Liu Li (Colored Glaze) made a disdainful expression. Seeing Liu Li's (Colored Glaze) expression, Jin Qiao'er immediately became a bit dejected. Then, with a very painful expression on her face, she reluctantly took out two crystal-clear, unknown fruits from her storage bag.
As soon as Jin Qiao'er took out the fruits, Liu Li (Colored Glaze) immediately rushed over and stretched out its claws to grab them. It looked very anxious and the previous aloofness was gone. Jin Qiao'er, who was prepared for this, did not miss her chance. She was, after all, a Refining Qi mid-stage cultivator. She suddenly reached out and grabbed Liu Li (Colored Glaze) by the back of its neck. Liu Li (Colored Glaze) struggled desperately and made angry meowing sounds.
"Let's see if you still run away or ignore me now," Jin Qiao'er said with a smile on her face, seemingly angry. She used a bit of force, and no matter how Liu Li (Colored Glaze) struggled, it could not break free.
Just then, a black shadow flashed across the sky. Zhui Dian (Chasing Lightning) had flown over, attracted by the scent. Taking advantage of Jin Qiao'er's distraction, it grabbed one of the fruits in its mouth and flew away like lightning. Jin Qiao'er was stunned and had a wry smile on her face. Liu Li (Colored Glaze), who was caught in her hand, made an angry sound. This annoying guy always took advantage of its ability to fly and stole its good things.
After a while, Jin Qiao'er and Liu Li (Colored Glaze) became friends and played together. They even teamed up to scold Zhui Dian (Chasing Lightning). Watching the spirit pets and Jin Qiao'er playing together, Meng Zhang's face showed a gentle smile. Each of the two little guys ate one of her cherries. If he, as their owner, did not show any response, he would feel like he was taking advantage of the little girl.
However, for a while, Meng Zhang could not find a suitable spiritual object to give as a gift. Jin Qiao'er was excited and played with Liu Li (Colored Glaze) and Zhui Dian (Chasing Lightning) for a long time. Jin Qigu's voice came from the front of the flying boat. "It's getting dark, Qiaoer, it's time to come back." Jin Qiao'er had not had enough fun, but after Jin Qigu urged her several times, she reluctantly said goodbye to her two new friends.
As Jin Qiao'er jumped towards the Qiaoshou Sect's flying boat, several black shadows descended from the sky and attacked the flying boats. Meng Zhang's face changed, and his Second Rank flying sword, Red Flame, immediately flew out and blocked one of the black feathers. The seemingly weak and powerless feather contained a very powerful force, which could withstand Meng Zhang's Second Rank flying sword.
The Foundation Building cultivators on the other flying boats also reacted in time and quickly took action to block the black feathers that were attacking their flying boats.
Feathers shattered into small pieces and flew in all directions, and the scattered force stirred up gusts of wind that blew in all directions. Jin Qiao'er, who was in the air, was first frightened by the sudden attack, and then her body was caught in the whirlwind. Jin Qiao'er had no flying ability and relied entirely on a pair of wind-control shoes on her feet to move freely between the flying boats. Now suddenly caught in the whirlwind, she screamed in fear and lost her ability to react.
Aunt Jin on the flying boat in front was shocked and was about to rescue her. Ripples appeared in the air above the flying boat formation, and three black crows suddenly appeared and attacked the flying boats below. Black feathers fell like a rain of arrows. All the Foundation Building cultivators, including Jin Qigu, had to deal with this wave of attacks. If the flying boat was damaged or even sunk, the five Foundation Building cultivators might be fine, but the group of Refining Qi disciples on board would be in great danger.
Aunt Jin created countless needle shadows that blocked all the feathers that were shot at the flying boat. Meng Zhang's two swords flew up and down, knocking all the feathers away. The three black crows were immediately recognized. They were ink crows, a very fierce demon bird. Ink crows were born with the ability to move in the shadows, and Second Rank ink crows had talents such as shadow assassination and shadow ambush.
Just now, the three ink crows took advantage of the cover of the clouds and quietly approached the flying boat formation, then took the opportunity to launch a surprise attack. The other four Foundation Building cultivators did not notice the ink crows sneaking in using the cover of the clouds. Meng Zhang was distracted by Jin Qiao'er and his spirit pets and did not use his Deception Breaking Eye to observe the sky regularly. With just one negligence, these uninvited ink crows used shadow movement to fly close and then launched a shadow ambush.
The three ink crows worked together and temporarily entangled the five Foundation Building cultivators. Jin Qiao'er's body lost control and danced in the air, completely at a loss. Seeing Jin Qiao'er's body falling like this, Yang Xueyi on the flying boat threw out two talismans with all her might. One talisman was a wind-stabilizing talisman, which turned into a stream of light and stabilized the whirlwind around Jin Qiao'er's body, preventing her from drifting with the wind. The other talisman turned into a stream of light and landed on Jin Qiao'er's body.
This was a feather-falling talisman, which made Jin Qiao'er's body immediately become as light as a feather. Zhui Dian (Chasing Lightning) flew over like lightning, then opened its small mouth and bit Jin Qiao'er's half-sleeve, trying to pull her up to the flying boat. Normally, although Zhui Dian (Chasing Lightning) had much greater strength than its peers, its body was too small. Even if it exerted all its strength, it could not pull Jin Qiao'er at all. Fortunately, now, due to the feather-falling talisman, Jin Qiao'er's body became extremely light, and she was pulled by Zhui Dian (Chasing Lightning).
Seeing Yang Xueyi and Zhui Dian (Chasing Lightning) helping out, Jin Qiao'er also calmed down. She activated her wind-control shoes and followed Zhui Dian (Chasing Lightning) to jump onto the Taiyi Sect's flying boat. Seeing Jin Qiao'er safe, Meng Zhang and Jin Qigu both breathed a sigh of relief. The three ink crows let out a series of unpleasant cries. A large group of black ink crows flew from the distant sky and directly attacked the flying boat formation. A large number of ink crows covered the sky and the earth, endless.
