The small pile of star treasures lit up with dazzling lusters, causing the entire warship to become bright, shining on everyone’s sluggish expressions clearly.
In the silence, all of their mouths were opened, they stared at the small pile of treasures in front of Tang Tian. They had never seen so many spirit objects before, all of the energy undulation they were releasing pervaded the air, the energy inside the warship became affected, revealing an extremely strange situation.
~Are they all spirit objects.....~
~How is that possible.....~
Ling Xia’s expression the most marvelous, her eyes almost dropped to the ground, her breathing halted. Tang Tian’s everyday wealth had already shocked her to the point of lunacy, but everything that she knew, the knowledge that she encompassed, in front of the pile of spirit objects, she had been reduced into an idiot.
~The Honorable Martial Continent won’t have so many spirit objects.....~
~Who is he?~
Although everyone’s expressions made young lad Tang extremely elated, but he knew that they were still in a predicament, so he did not have time to be pleased. He used strength to clap, causing everyone’s attention to be roused.
“From now on, all of your five families will be split into five parts, Wei Family, the Sagittarius Constellation. Li Family, the Cancer Constellation. Yu Family, the Aries Constellation. Ye Family, Libra Constellation. Zhang Family, Aquarius Constellation.”
Tang Tian shamelessly copied and corresponded the five families to their respective Ecliptic Palaces names, this way, it was more convenient for him.
Everyone did not have any objections, but instead felt that the new names given to them were extremely suitable, just that.....
“Wait, what’s constellation?” Wei Ting Ting asked.
“Errrrr.” Tang Tian was stunned, the Sacred Saint Galaxy did not use any constellation names, so he had no choice but to vaguely explain: “Similar to continents.”
Everyone was enlightened, some of the more mature youngsters felt moved. Could it be that the Master hoped that each of their families would hold a continent each in the future?
“Alright.” Tang Tian started separating the star treasures, and muttered to himself: “Aquarius, Sagittarius, Cancer, Aries, Libra, lucky I have many treasures. I still need to obtain more in the future though, alright alright, I still have many 12 Ecliptic Palace treasures, but I still need to get more....”
Although he had many star treasures, he had thrown them all into Ursa Major Constellation’s warehouse, but for the sake of Little Fool to refine more spirit treasures, he had brought a few of them.
“Sagittarius and Aries, offense, Libra for control, Cancer for defense, what can Aquarius do? Eh, how do Aquarius constellation martial artists fight?” Tang Tian picked up one star treasure and muttered to himself.
Little Fool who had just floated up whispered to Tang Tian emotionlessly: “With money.”
Tang Tian’s expression froze, he did not say anything, those words cannot be said. But in Heaven’s Road, it was a fact that they were hailed as the richest martial artists.
After picking out the five treasures of the respective constellations, Tang Tian heaved a sigh of relief, it was sufficient. The star treasures were separated into six piles, other than the five families, there was one remaining for the Underworld Continent’s Demonic Mounts. Tang Tian then pointed to each pile and explained.
“That’s for Aquarius, that’s Aries, that’s Cancer, that’s Sagittarius, this is Libra, and this is for the Demonic Mounts. One person take one.”
Although they could roughly guess what was happening, but for it to truly happen, all of them were immediately filled with joy and disbelief.
After a long while, everyone calmed down.
“What are you guys dilly dallying for? Hurry up!” Tang Tian opened his eyes wide and said impatiently: “Take the time now and familiarize yourself with it.”
They awoke from their daydream and immediately went up.
One treasure per person, the strength of the five families disciples greatly increased, but it would not be easy for them if they truly wanted to display their full potential. Tang Tian was no longer an amateur, especially through Bing’s trainings, he at least know what he was doing. It was impossible for them to form any coordination in such a short time.
The Black Arrow Warship had three silver grade main cannons installed, six Honeycomb Sword Cannons, three silver grade Star Mass Spears and 12 Heaven Devastating Blades.
Shi Sen’s Demonic Mounts nicely fit the 12 Heaven Devastating Blades.
For the silver grade Star Mass Spears, they were handed over to the Aries Constellation’s Yu Family who were experts in Spear techniques.
(TN: Sorry guys, I have mistakenly translated Star Mass Spears as Guns in one of the prior chapters, because weapons on a ship are usually guns and cannons, but it seems like it truly is a spear handled by the spear users.)
Tang Tian left the Honeycomb Sword Cannons for himself.
Three sets of silver grade main cannons were unsuitable against the nimble pirate warships, so they were forsaken by Tang Tian and Little Fool.
Suddenly, Tang Tian and Little Fool were surprised by an abrupt flow of light aura, they stopped their discussion, and were completely stunned by the scene in front of them.
Each and every single person were enveloped in lights, the lights were of different colors, causing the warship to become extremely colorful and bright.
But the next thing that happened instantly caused Tang Tian and Little Fool’s face to change.
*********************
On board the pirate ship.
“How much longer till we catch up?” Mei Chen Xiu asked.
The adjutant beside him quickly gave him a precise timing: “In around 15 minutes. Lucky for us, our warship’s speed is good, and that Meng Nan has too many people onboard, if not, we will have difficulty catching up to the Black Arrow Warships.”
The adjutant was moved, Chen Mei Xiu was no different, the Black Arrow Warship’s performance was absolutely one of the best amongst the small size warships, and of course its price was equally scary. If he was commanding the luxuriously equipped and prepared Honorable Martial Army, Chen Mei Xiu had many ways to chase, but he was currently leading pirates. To not attract attention, there was never any communication between the pirates and the Honorable Martial Continent. Even the communication between Chen Mei Xiu and his family were cut off.
“Get everyone to be prepared for battle, Meng Nan’s fighting abilities are not to be underestimated.” Chen Mei Xiu did not look down on his opponents even if they were a fleet.
Meng Nan had proven his strength time and time again, and to Chen Mei Xiu who had personally proven himself, he would never look down on a person like that.
Suddenly, the adjutant cried out in surprise: “Oh my god, what is that?”
Chen Mei Xiu was startled, he immediately turned to look at his opponent, his eyes constricting.
The Black Arrow Warship ahead of them had lit up with dazzling multicolored light auras, those light auras were actually leaking out of the warship!
~What’s going on?~
The Black Arrow Warship is not known for its defense, but its body was made up of Black Mist Wood. Black Mist Wood had weak transparency, thus keeping light auras from leaking out, but for light aura to be penetrating through it, how bright must the light auras be?
~What are those light auras?~
A strong intense uneasiness birthed in Chen Mei Xiu’s heart, just at that moment, he sensed something, and muttered: “Energy ripples, a powerful energy ripple....”
His adjutant looked to the sky outside, there were sudden torrents appearing in the sky, like blades cutting across water, sweeping at extraordinary speeds.
Ssssi!
The energy torrents swept past their warship, the screeching sound caused the hull to shake.
“Not good!” Chen Mei Xiu’s eyes suddenly grew round, his face filled with shock: “They are absorbing energy!”
Ssssi ssssi ssssi!
All of the energy torrents were like transparent arrows, shooting in all directions across the sky, like raindrops flowing towards the Black Arrow Warship.
Chen Mei Xiu and his team watched as an unforgettable scene appeared before them.
Countless energy torrents flocked together, like ten thousand arrows being shot, they entered the warship.
The light aura of the warship became even stronger, as the multicolored light auras becoming even denser.
Ssssi sssssi ssssi!
Energy from even further away started to be pulled, under the intense attractions, the energy torrents gradually curved, until a vortex storm visible to the naked eye started to form in the horizon.
Energy storm!
Chen Mei Xiu never thought that there would be a day where he would witness the complete formation of a storm. The energy storm grew bigger and bigger, quickly exceeding over 1.5km, it was extremely oppressive, the energy contained was enough to choke people’s hearts.
The intense and crazy energy surged fanatically into the warship.
With the Black Arrow Warship in the center of the storm, the light auras continued to become brighter. The transparent yet quickly revolving energy storm was like a layer of water, the Black Arrow Warship’s light aura was so bright that no one could see the Black Arrow Warship any more.
“Not good! Master, our warship’s energy is starting to disperse!” The adjutant’s panicked shouts awoke Chen Mei Xiu from his stupor, his face instantly changing.
Every warship held an astronomical amount of energy, that was the source of power for the warship’s movements. All of this energy had been sealed with many layers, and was extremely safe.
This was the first time Chen Mei Xiu had encountered the energy of a warship being dispersed.
What a strong suction force!
Chen Mei Xiu looked at the Black Arrow Warship in shock, ~What’s going on inside there?~
“Retreat!”
Chen Mei Xiu shouted, everything that was happening was too shocking. Although they could not understand what was happening inside the Black Arrow Warship, but even the slowest person could sense the intense danger from the Black Arrow Warship.
After retreating over 200 li, the energy dispersal finally disappeared, at the same time, all of the pirate groups that had finished battling had caught up.
Chen Mei Xiu felt more at ease.
Two pirate fleets had took a roundabout, they had avoided the terrifying energy storm by arching around, and blocked the path of the Black Arrow Warship.
This also meant that they had completed surrounding the Black Arrow Warship.
Regardless of what direction the Black Arrow Warship wanted to move, they would be blocked. This caused the Honorable Martial Continent to become even more confident. Although the scene before them were out of their expectations, but they firmly believed they held the advantage. Although the Black Arrow Warship held an advantage in speed, but as long as they were trapped, they would lose that advantage, and be like a fish trapped in a bowl, waiting for people to slaughter it.
The only thing that made them hesitate was the unknown activity happening inside the Black Arrow Warship.
****************
Tang Tian regained his composure, he suddenly felt that the scene before him was extremely familiar, ~Didn’t this happen to the seven sets of armors in the Sword Forest Stronghold?~
But, the scale of it was even more terrifying.
The treasures Tang Tian took out were mostly silver grade. But when the silver grade treasures were awakened in the hands of the disciples, the martial spirits inside the treasures immediately sensed the dense energy, the unprecedented dense energy.
The base instinct of absorbing energy instantly strengthened and exploded.
When the hundreds of treasures were giving their all to absorb energy, it produced an effect, far greater than the seven sets of treasures of the Sword Forest Stronghold, and even more terrifyingly.
All the energy in the Southern Islands were being pulled, and poured into all the treasures.
The light auras were the treasures greedily and fanatically absorbing energy.
Tang Tian could clearly feel that the treasures were greatly strengthening at a tremendous speed. The most obvious were the bronze treasures, they quickly silverized, increasing in grade and becoming silver grade treasures. For the silver treasures, they had already started forming a dim layer of gold.
Suddenly, Tang Tian slapped his own forehead.
~I’m truly stupid, this is so simple, why didn’t I think of it?~
It was as though he had seen a road filled with gold.
