After the return of the Tongtian Shenzhou to the shipyard. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info Everyone got off the boat, and after Ning Weitian explained to Zhan Chen, he hurriedly returned home with a few offerings, and also brought the rudder and the sinner Wei Luo, you can imagine what fate awaits Wei Luo.

And Zhan Chen still served as the head of the dock, which was actually a special reward given to him by Ning Weitian. Because the Tongtian Shenzhou has been completed, and the key to start is in Ning Weitian's hands, no one can take it away. So the dockyard manager is simply an idle job.

Sure enough, Zhan Chen immediately became the shopkeeper, handed over all the work to Jiang Zhunshen to preside, and locked himself in the cultivation room of the Governor's Mansion, where there was a spiritual spring, which was an excellent place for retreat and cultivation.

For the next two years or so, Zhan Chen spent almost all of his time in retreat, and his cultivation was also consolidating day by day in retreat, and his strength was increasing day by day.

In the past two years, the dockyard has been renovated, the destroyed houses have been rebuilt, the layout has become more tidy, and new boatmen have joined in, making the streets more lively than before. The docks were also bustling with trade, but with the arrival of the Tongtian ceremony, it became even busier.

However, the biggest change is still a few people, after experiencing two robber attacks, the strength of many of the guards left in the dock has been improved, of course, including Zhou Ziru, he finally broke through and successfully entered the ranks of the powerhouses of the Great Perfection of Emperor Wu.

At this time, in a forest outside the dock, Zhou Ziru and Zhan Chen had just had a hearty battle, the battlefield was full of broken branches and deep pits, Zhou Ziru was sitting on the ground, panting, and Zhan Chen was sitting opposite him, smiling, breathing evenly, and he couldn't tell that he had just experienced a big battle.

Zhou Ziru stared at Zhan Chen and asked unwillingly: "Zhan Chen, why are you winning again?" I have realized the sword intent of Eighty Cheng Cold, why can't I win against you." ”

Zhan Chen looked at him and sighed silently in his heart: "Zhou Ziru is worthy of being a combat genius, in fact, he is much stronger than when he first broke through the Great Perfection of the Martial Emperor, at that time he clearly remembered that the cold sword intent he comprehended was only fifty percent, but now, after fighting with himself repeatedly, he has jumped to eighty percent." ”

So he laughed: "Ziru, I can't blame you for this, it's not that your sword intent is not strong enough, but that the Taiji sword intent I comprehend is too strong, it can not only improve the power of my attack, but also dissolve part of the power of other people's attacks, so your cold sword intent is not enough to defeat my Taiji sword intent." ”

"Hmph, don't be arrogant, you wait, eighty percent of the sword intent is not enough, I will realize ninety percent of the sword intent, or realize other stronger sword intent, in short, I will defeat you sooner or later!"

"Wow, I'll be waiting at any time. Zhan Chen replied with a smile, and suddenly he gossiped again: "Eh, Ziru, I heard that Ning Zilan came to see you yesterday, how are you two doing, can you reveal a little?"

Zhou Ziru glared at him and said, "I think you are salty and eat radishes and worry about it, why do you care about this?"

"Just tell me, brother, I will naturally pay attention to your feelings. ”

"I turned her down. ”

"Really refused? It's rare that that beautiful woman has a deep affection for you. ”

"Yes, I told her that I don't belong to this world, and I'm going to go outside. ”

"What about her?"

"She said she was going to follow me. ”

"I lied that I already had a sweetheart out there. She ran away with tears in her eyes at the time, but this time it's okay, she won't keep bothering me in the future, and I can improve my cultivation wholeheartedly. ”

Zhan Chen shook his head with pity, thinking: It seems that my brother, who has a suave appearance, is really incomprehensible and dedicated to cultivating.

It was just a small episode in the peaceful cultivation life they had spent in the dockyard. However, this calm could not last long, as the pace of the Tongtian Festival was quietly approaching.

At the beginning of August, Zhan Chen finally received a notice from Ning Weitian that the ceremony would be held on the morning of the fifteenth of next month, asking him to get ready, and leaving them a hundred places, which must be reported within a week.

The news spread quickly, breaking the silence of the dockyard. All of a sudden, almost everyone had the word "Tongtian Grand Ceremony" in their mouths, and Zhan Chen's Governor's Mansion was also crowded, and there were people who came to apply to participate in the ceremony every day.

Compared to the caution of Ning Weitian and other martial saints, the offerings and guards seemed to be even bolder. These people are still young, full of the energy to dare to fight, and are willing to try and take risks.

In the end, Zhan Chen selected one hundred of the strongest Martial Emperor powerhouses and reported them to Ning Weitian. In the Ning family in the sleepless city, the people who participated in the ceremony were immediately determined.

The next thing is to wait, more than a month should have passed quickly, but in the hearts of those who participated in the Tongtian ceremony, they felt that this month had passed especially long.

Zhan Chen, like everyone else, was full of things about the ceremony, and he even felt absent-minded about his cultivation.

Fortunately, that day finally came in anticipation. In the morning, Zhan Chen gathered a hundred warriors early and waited for the arrival of Ning Weitian and others in the middle of the main road of the dock.

Jiang Zhun-sheng and other people who were not ready to participate in the ceremony and the majority of boatmen gathered on both sides of the main road to wait.

Ning Weitian finally came, and he was followed by four hundred people, and the total number of people who took the Tongtian Divine Boat this time would reach as many as five hundred!

Zhan Chen not only saw Ning Weitian in the team, but also saw his wife Fan Xianya and daughter Ning Zilan, Ning Zilan also stared at Zhou Ziru in the team in a daze, obviously infatuated.

Zhan Chen sighed secretly, then abandoned his distracting thoughts, walked towards Ning Weitian, stood still in front of him, and arched his hand: "Report to the master, our people are ready." ”

Ning Weitian nodded and said to him, "Take your people back to the team." ”

"Yes!" So Zhan Chen took his men and joined the army.

The team continued on, entering the shipyard and concentrating under the Heavenly Divine Boat.

Ning Weitian jumped lightly, stood on the Shenzhou, condescendingly, and said to everyone: "Everyone, today will be an extremely important day in your life, as we all know, the Tongtian Ceremony will be held today, and we must take the Tongtian Shenzhou to the destination as soon as possible to join the other fleets participating in the ceremony, so I'll make a long story short." ”

"The Grand Ceremony of Heaven is the most important event in the Abyssal Pool, and the road to Heaven is also the only way to the outside world. However, the road is a path of death full of dangers. There is a rule in the Abyssal Pool: Anyone who can leave the Abyssal Pool will be free! Therefore, I declare that whoever can reach the Abyssal Pool will leave the Ning family from now on. ”

"Master-" Many old people who had served in the Ning family for decades listened to his words, and tears welled up in their eyes.

"But!" Ning Weitian changed his words and said, "If you can successfully survive and reach the top of the abyssal pool, I, Ning Weitian, will welcome you back at any time and work with me to dominate the industry!"

"Long live Master Ning!" everyone couldn't help but shout, and the crowd was excited.

"Okay, let's all get on board!"

So all the five hundred people boarded the Shenzhou, Ning Weitian immediately made a division of labor, all the more than 100 worshippers stayed on the deck to resist any danger that might come from the river, and the strong people below the Great Perfection of Emperor Wu were assigned to all the key links of the Shenzhou and were responsible for controlling the big ship.

There was no idler on the ship, except for the "little princess" Ning Zilan who was asked to stay in a safe cabin. Although she expressed "serious protest", Ning Weitian ignored it and specially sent two guards to watch her.

And Zhan Chen, naturally, was entrusted with the important task, staying at the bow of the ship with Ning Weitian to meet the powerful demon beasts that might appear, while Fan Xianya and Zhou Ziru were arranged in the stern part of the ship, responsible for defense.

With that, Ning Weitian gave an order: "Start the boat!"

Tongtian Shenzhou started again, sailed out of the shipyard forever, and embarked on the "road of no return". This time, the voyage they had to complete was no more dangerous than the first voyage, and it was a thousand times or ten thousand times more dangerous than before.

Ning Weitian was still standing at the front of the deck, silent, exactly the same as last month, and Zhan Chen was still standing beside him. The only thing that changed was that the eyes of the two of them were solemn for a few points.

Sure enough, as soon as they left the dock with their front feet, the monsters chased after them on their hind feet, and swooped down like pesky flies, and they smelled the smell of people, which was a delicacy that they could not normally taste.

Since ancient times, demon beasts and humans have been enemies, and the battle between demons and humans has never stopped.

These primeval barbarians living beneath the abyssal pool are murderous and intellectually inferior, and now the scent of humans awakens their instinctive hostility. All of this makes them fearless of death and go forward one after another.

Sixth-order demon beasts, seventh-order demon beasts, the worshippers on the ship wiped out group after group.

The ship is still sailing, but the Heavenly Divine Boat has become a "colorful boat", and the various "paints" smeared on it are the blood of various demon beasts.

The battle continues, and it lasts until it's boring for Zhan Chen, and it has to go on when it's tired.

Finally, they looked at the other Heavenly Divine Boats, one, two...... Twenty-three in all, all concentrated in the waters ahead.

Seeing those Shenzhou, Ning Weitian finally opened his mouth and said the first sentence after setting sail: "Zhan Chen, we have finally arrived." ”

After experiencing a series of battles, Zhan Chen looked calm, dressed in white and standing proudly, neither on his face nor on his body could find any traces of battle.

When he heard what Ning Weitian said, he couldn't help but be stunned and asked, "Master, are those boats in front of you also the Heavenly Divine Boat?"

"Yes, they are all from our Sleepless City, as well as the various forces of the other four cities such as Minghai City and Black Crow City, and that's not all, after a while, there will be ships coming. ”

"So, should we join them too?"

"Yes, the next road is quite difficult to walk, we need to work together to get through the crisis, of course, before taking the following road, we also have to hold a grand ceremony to worship the sky, bless us to tide over the difficulties, a smooth journey, this is the Tongtian ceremony!"

"I see. A hint of clarity flashed in Zhan Chen's eyes, and he finally understood the meaning of the Tongtian Ceremony, which was like a pledge meeting.
