Chapter 438: Giant Turtle

On the surface of the Ten Thousand-Mile Giant Lake, a massive Star Ship floated.

This time, for the journey to the Extreme Void Domain, over 300 disciples were randomly selected from the sect.

The top-tier Tian Puppet Masters were also brought aboard the Star Ship.

At this moment, Xu Yuexian appeared quite excited; she had been cooped up in the sect for a long time and could finally see the outside world.

“Calm down, don’t act like you’ve never seen the world,” Xu Fan said, noticing Xu Yuexian’s enthusiastic expression.

“Master, you don’t know how long it’s been since I last left the sect; you can’t understand that feeling,” Xu Yuexian replied with a smile, continuing to look around the Star Ship in excitement.

Xu Fan looked at Xu Yuexian, who resembled a child, and a fatherly smile spread across his face.

“Grand Elder, when are we leaving?” Spirit Cut asked from the side.

“Wait for Respected Elder Ling Xiu; he has something to do on the Human Race Navigation Route Stars,” Xu Fan replied.

“I almost forgot about him; let’s wait a little longer,” Spirit Cut said cheerfully. He felt quite pleased.

With the sect stable and the support close at hand, he had no worries about being alone after becoming immortal.

At that moment, Xu Lingtai arrived with his wife to greet Xu Fan.

The once carefree youth had now transformed into a mature and composed man.

“Greetings, Master Ancestor, Spirit Cut Elder,” Xu Lingtai and his wife said as they bowed.

“Lingtai has been doing quite well lately; I hear your father can’t keep up with you anymore,” Xu Fan said, smiling at his little grandson.

“It’s all because my father steps aside for me; I still need to work harder,” Xu Lingtai said somewhat shyly.

“You’ve matured and become steady; very good. Take Xi’er and explore the Star Ship a bit,” Xu Fan said, patting Xu Lingtai on the shoulder.

“Thank you, Master Ancestor.”

After Xu Lingtai bowed and took his leave, Spirit Cut looked at Xu Fan and said, “Do you know your grandson’s wife well?”

“She’s not from your Demon Sect? Why ask me this?” Xu Fan replied, looking puzzled at Spirit Cut.

“She’s the prospective Saintess of the Demon Sect. Even if she escapes, there will eventually be a fateful battle,” Spirit Cut said.

“It’s fine; they are minor issues. If one shot can’t solve it, we’ll fire two,” Xu Fan said dismissively.

The distance between the Hidden Spirit Sect and the Demon Sect was such that even a Great Ascension Master, flying at full strength, would not reach the Hidden Spirit Sect in their lifetime.

“That’s true, but for safety, you should remind your grandson,” Spirit Cut advised.

“Understood.”

Shortly after, a beam of light streaked toward them.

Respected Elder Ling Xiu appeared on the Star Ship, and then the Star Ship started moving toward the direction of the Extreme Void Domain.

This time, entering the Extreme Void Domain, Spirit Cut was like an old hand at mining, skillfully operating the Iron Claws.

One by one, small stars containing spirit ore were pulled into the Star Ship.

Along the way, they also encountered an enormous star iron ore star.

Just as Xu Fan thought Spirit Cut would send a puppet to cut, Spirit Cut unexpectedly fired the main cannon directly.

Then the massive web puppet and Iron Claws were deployed, and within moments, they devoured the gigantic star iron ore star.

“That’s truly violent~” Xu Fan said, feeling a bit pained.

“Spirit Cut Elder lives up to the reputation of a demonic cultivator,” Respected Elder Ling Xiu commented nearby.

After collecting the massive star iron star, Spirit Cut piloted the Star Ship deeper into the Extreme Void Domain.

“How many main cannon shells do we have on the Star Ship?” Xu Fan asked, knowing they might encounter Beast Race Warships in the Extreme Void Domain.

“99 shells. Spirit Cut Elder always refills the main cannon shells before returning from the Human Race Navigation Route Stars,” Grape replied.

“Quite meticulous,” Xu Fan laughed.

As the Star Ship delved deeper into the Extreme Void Domain, Xu Fan realized that the previous mining was just an appetizer.

Spirit Cut, piloting the Star Ship, started searching for Beast Race giant beast warships with reckless abandon.

Sometimes, he would simply abandon small stars with some value in spirit ore.

“It seems this is Spirit Cut Elder’s main line of work.”

In a frenzy of searching, Spirit Cut indeed found three Beast Race giant beast warships.

Everyone aboard the Star Ship, who had never experienced such encounters before, began to feel nervous.

Respected Elder Ling Xiu looked at Xu Fan and asked, “Is this okay?”

“No problem. This Star Ship can take on five at once without issue.”

Xu Fan remained calm, as if he were about to step into the ring as a master.

Just as Xu Fan wanted to observe Spirit Cut’s piloting skills, Grape informed him that Spirit Cut had handed over control the moment they encountered the Beast Race Warships.

“……” Xu Fan.

What kind of skill is this, using an advantage right before battle?

Then, while Xu Fan calmly watched the battle, Spirit Cut controlled the ship to charge straight into three enemy vessels at once.

After the battle ended, Spirit Cut regained control and flew madly toward the location of the exploding Beast Race Warship.

“It seems everyone enjoys the spoils of war,” Xu Fan remarked with a smile.

Just then, Xu Fan felt a sudden prickle of hair on his neck and a tingling sensation on his scalp.

“Spirit Cut Elder, return immediately.”

Grape instantly took over the Star Ship, executing a 180-degree emergency turn.

“Roar! Roar! Roar!”

A giant turtle appeared in the sky, measuring a hundred miles long, with a dragon-headed serpent tail, exuding a mighty presence.

The giant turtle glanced at the fleeing Star Ship.

Then it brought down its massive claw to encompass the world and slammed it toward the Star Ship where Xu Fan was.

“Holy crap! What is that?”

“Grape!” Xu Fan shouted.

“Understood~”

Just as the enormous claw that could block out the sky slammed down on the Star Ship,

A Formation appeared on the underside of the Star Ship, glowing with eight nodes.

The eight nodes shattered instantly, releasing immense energy that activated the Formation.

At the last moment, the Star Ship vanished beneath the giant turtle’s claw.

In an unknown area of the Extreme Void Domain, a damaged Star Ship suddenly appeared.

Then, as if fulfilling its mission, the entire Star Ship shattered into two halves.

“What was that just now?”

“I clearly calculated this trip; it was meant to be smooth sailing, with no disasters,” Xu Fan said, somewhat shaken.

“If I hadn’t kept a backup plan before leaving, the people on the Star Ship would have turned to scraps by now.”

“Grape, repair the Star Ship,” Xu Fan instructed.

“Roger that.”

Countless puppets and Small Spiritual Boats flew out from the damaged Star Ship, starting to mend the broken parts.

At that moment, Spirit Cut emerged from the control room, his legs trembling.

It seemed he had lost half of his three souls and seven spirits.

“Grand Elder, I panicked,” Spirit Cut said with embarrassment.

“It’s fine; it was just bad luck, and being alive is good enough,” Xu Fan waved his hand, indicating it didn’t matter.

“Compared to the problems at hand, nothing else is important,” Xu Fan said, looking at the distribution of stars around them.

Spirit Cut glanced at the stars distributed around and his expression turned bitter.

“Grand Elder, do you think we are in the demon realm?”

“If you say so, then it must be true~” Xu Fan sighed.
