Chapter 740 - 223: [Flying Vessel]
In this West Platform City, under the banner of the Gu Family, even a low-level steward could walk in with swagger just by presenting a token.
`
Within the Array, the storage area of this West Platform City is vast.
Rows of storerooms are aligned grandly, and numerous flying ships hovering in mid-air, almost blotting out the sky and sun, with flags waving like interwoven clouds.
On the ground, many people were busy carrying boxes filled with Storage Magical Artifacts to the flying ships.
Manager Niu led Chen Yan inside; naturally, the attendant was not qualified to enter and had already bid farewell and left.
Along the way, Manager Niu said nothing more to Chen Yan, just leading him inward, until they reached a wide storeroom, watching people in gray robes busily moving goods back and forth.
He casually pointed: "That’s today’s flying ship that’s set to depart. You will board this one. Once on board, stay inside the cabin. I’ve spoken with the steward of this ship; you can come out from the cargo hold at night to get some fresh air on the deck, but try not to show yourself at other times. We’re not following official procedures; it’s better to keep a low profile."
Chen Yan had anticipated this and would not cause any trouble, nodding calmly in agreement.
Afterward, Manager Niu instructed Chen Yan to wait in the storeroom. An hour later, when loading was complete, he led Chen Yan onto the flying ship.
This flying ship is not particularly large, about the size of a small steamship.
Yet, because of the presence of Storage Magical Artifacts, its cargo load is truly astonishing!
Chen Yan was taken into the cargo hold, where he saw rows and piles of densely packed boxes, with the glow of treasures flowing over them, all emanating the brilliance of Storage Magical Artifacts.
"These contain the medicinal herbs harvested from the Gu Family’s herbal estate in the Western Border. Stay here and don’t touch anything,"
Manager Niu instructed once, then let Chen Yan find a corner to sit in.
A moment later, he brought in another person, likely the steward of the ship, who looked at Chen Yan, nodded, and left without exchanging a word.
Chen Yan didn’t mind avoiding trouble, finding a quiet spot in the cabin to sit and meditate.
His Storage Equipment had food, drinks, and Fasting Pills, so staying here for a month was no problem.
If worse came to worst, he could take out his phone to read novels—even without access, the downloaded novels would keep him entertained for many days.
He settled down for meditation in the cargo hold, and after an indeterminate time, felt a sudden shake beneath him!
Soon, he felt the flying ship rise into the air!
Curious, Chen Yan couldn’t help but get up and move to the cargo hold door, where he saw it was closed, but through the gap, he could still catch a glimpse of the deck outside.
He watched as the surrounding buildings gradually shrank away, clouds ascended, and the flying ship climbed higher, yet felt no vibration or wobble—it was far more stable than an airplane takeoff.
After reaching a certain altitude, layers of glowing treasure lights shimmered across the ship!
Chen Yan was taken aback; with his knowledge in Arrays, though never having learned this type, he had studied the principles. Observing carefully, he could discern multiple effects in the glow of this Array.
There were wind barriers, shock absorbers, and weight reduction enhancements...
Various principles of Arrays intertwined, creating a delicate balance among the different effects without conflict.
This intricate combination of layered effects indicated to Chen Yan that this was a highly refined technology from the Domain Realm.
Soon, the clouds outside the deck began to retreat swiftly... Chen Yan knew the flying ship was moving, and at a remarkable speed!
Yet standing in the cabin, he still felt hardly any vibration.
"This cultivation civilization still has many aspects worth exploring..."
After a slight reflection, Chen Yan returned to his corner in the cabin to sit and meditate, entering his introspective state.
There were still over thirty days to go.
