The Geared Immortal

Chapter 494

/*unedited*/

The battle became too chaotic as hundreds of explosions can be seen surrounding the warship which is calmly floating in the air. Although everything was tense, the people inside the ship found out that no matter how strong the attacks the enemy sent out, the barrier of the ship seem to be holding on its own.

"Master Mai, this ship… it seems very sturdy, it's like a very strong turtle. Hihi…" Song Xie suddenly commented as she suddenly felt relaxed after finding out about the situation.

The guards even stopped defending and just focus on attacking the people flying all over the place. And some guards already killed a lot of their targets.

"Everyone! Listen, we will continue moving forward, please be on your guard!" Deming Er shouted as he nodded to the person at the helm.

The warship began to once again move as the pilot maneuver the warship through the thick smokes from the explosion around the ship's barrier.

Meanwhile, when the mercenary acting like bandits saw this, they were all angered and felt frustration in their hearts. They could believe that even after attacking the warship with all their might, they still could not take it down. It was too frustrating.

Even those infant soul realm experts didn't expect the protective barrier of the ship was this strong.

"Master… Please try to delay the ship for a bit, I am about to finish cracking the array of the ship!" suddenly one of the infant soul realm experts shouted under the ship.

He was the array expert of the mercenary group and is very confident of his skill.

"Everyone! Use your shields to stop that thing from moving!" shouted the leader of the group.

With his words, the mercenaries immediately took out their most precious defensive artifact, the energy shield. Then as if in berserk, they didn't even dodge and just activated their shields and flew at the front of the warship which is slowly moving forward. They used their body to block the path of the warship and acted like a net which seems to trap the warship and kept it from moving.

"Master, this doesn't look good. How can we escape?" Song Xie asked now her expression became worried.

Suddenly her sight shifted towards the stairs and a smile formed on her face. This is because she can smell Shin Jiao in that area and knew that Master Ji is actually watching. Since he is not moving, then she knew that they are not yet in trouble.

Ever since she knew how powerful Shin Jiao is and when he saved them, she has already fully put her trust in him.

"Young master… what should we do? The warship seems to be stopping…" the pilot said with worry in his eyes.

"Full power!" Deming Er said while looking at the screen of cultivators blocking their path with their shields.

"As you command…" the man said as he shifted the gear on the ship and turn to full power.

The warship suddenly shook as the energy converting rune inside began to absorb more energy from its power source of spiritual stones.

Brrr…

The loud reverberating sound shook the ship as it began to move forward little by little.

"It's working!" shouted Song Xie.

The expression on the guards also turned elated as they found the ship moving thought its frame is shaking.

Meanwhile, Shin Jiao who is watching the scene frowned.

"Damn it! These people are going to break my warship… But… It seems to be effective… Hmmm… Let's check the engine." he muttered as his figure disappear and reappear at the lower part of the ship.

From there he saw the rapid churning of the engine as it uses more power at the levitation rune core. When Shin Jiao saw this, he frowns. Although the warship is able to fly and he has added another electric engine. He has not changed the main core for the levitation rune of the ship.

"This thing would truly break if this continues." He thought as he began to move.

He suddenly took out a disk and began carving rune on its surface. Then he stacks those disks until it became a stack of four circular disks with shining runes on them. The original levitation rune core is only a single rune disk and it uses a subpar metal ore that's not even an alloy. So he was a bit surprised that it was still able to last this long.

But now, Shin Jiao decided to change it.

He looks at the power connector of the warship and saw the main circuit. He then immediately cut it off making the ship's engine suddenly stop. When this happened, everyone's expression turned pale.

"The engine of the ship… I think it's broken…" the pilot said with a pale expression.

Meanwhile, Shin Jiao immediately went to work and quickly change the levitation core into the four plated core which he just crafted.

Underneath the warship, the array expert showed a smile on his face as he formed hand signs and sent it towards the barrier. Not long later he can see the barrier flickering and knew that what he did was correct. It won't be long now and the barrier of the ship would collapse and he can have the ship… or rather, their group can have the ship.

Upon thinking to this part, a crafty glint appears on his eyes.

And true to his conjecture the barrier is already weakening. The mercenaries also noticed this as they found themselves able to slowly approach the ship's bow.

"The barrier is weakening! We should attack!" shouted one of the mercenaries while trying to hold his own shield.

"Shut up! Nobody moves and continues holding the ship." shouted their leader.

With this command, everyone didn't move and continue to hold.

Then suddenly it happened…

Bang!

Everyone in the ship and outside of the ship… was thrown to the floor and to the ground.

This is because the ship suddenly darted out like a cannon.

The pilot was even sent to the back as the ship's speed suddenly burst forward. This unexpected turn of the event made everyone in the ship dumbfounded. Those in the deck found themselves sticking to the wall unable to move, while the others are holding for their dear life at the rope which is their only salvation. If they let go, then they are sure to be thrown out of the ship.

Inside the engine room, Shin Jiao almost cursed out as he found himself thrown to the wall at the sudden acceleration after he connected the line he just cut.

"Damn it! I think four plates are way too much… Hehe…" he chuckled at the situation.

At the helm of the ship, the situation between Song Xie and Deming Er made even Yao Mai blush. This is because the two are sticking together with Deming Er at the wall and Song Xie hugging him tightly. The soft body sticking to his felt really amazing that he is already having a reaction in his lower part.

But Song Xie is oblivious to this. She was just glad that Deming Er caught her before she can hit the wall of the helm of the ship.

"You… you… should… adjust�� the… ship… speed… now…" said Deming Er to the pilot with difficulty.

But how could the pilot move when he can't even walk towards the ship's wheel.

Yao Mai suddenly expanded her spiritual sense and controlled the area around it. Although the area is small, it's enough as she can already control everything in that area. This made her figure stop from sticking to the wall even Deming Er and Song Xie recovered their movements. This action of hers made those around her stupefied. This is because what she just did is create a domain.

"Don't gawk around and control the ship!" she shouted at the pilot.

The man immediately ran towards the wheel and adjusted the ship's speed.

When the ship recovers from its momentum, everyone heaves a sigh of relief and was glad to have escaped the dangerous situation.

Shin Jiao on the other hand had an astounded look on his face as he was able to see what the beautiful woman did. It was like she was able to turn that small space into a different place and has the power to control everything inside it.

"That was a powerful skill, but has a heavy toll on her spiritual sense." He muttered.

And true to his words, Yao Mai who is standing at the helm suddenly fell down and became unconscious. What she just did make her feel weak and has consumed almost all of her Qi.

"Master! Shouted Song Xie… You should not have used your domain just like that…" she cried as she carried her master to the side.

"I can't believe that teacher can already use domain at her cultivation level…" Deming Er said with admiration in his eyes.

This is because the domain is a very rare ability that even many nascent realm cultivators are unable to control. It is the culmination of a cultivator's ability to control his own spiritual sense. Once that control is moving towards perfection then one can touch to the surface of using a domain.

And this is also the reason why Yao Mai is able to expand her spiritual sense to such a long-range.

Although her domain is only at a distance of 10 meters radius, it is still powerful enough for her to have a few seconds of control to her surroundings at that radius.

"So that's called a domain…" Shin Jiao thought.

He is also a bit aware of it, but with his current state of mind, he knew that he is still unable to touch at the borders of this powerful skill. If he could then he would really have nothing to be afraid of anymore.

Suddenly his expression turned a bit serious but then change into a smirk.

"I guess, a mouse has appeared.." He muttered.
