Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World

Chapter 1685: Short Confrontation

Jin Zhengyin stood behind Sima Yin Long. His expression was complex as the treasure ship in front of them got closer and closer, to the point where he could see Zheng Feng standing on the bow.

Jin Zhengyin didn’t expect Zhang Feng to acquire a large artifact on his own. When he left Zhang Feng, Jin Zhengyin thought that Zhang Feng wouldn’t be able to compare himself to the top ten core disciples. But now, it seems like Zhang Feng has the capability to contend against the top ten core disciples. Moreover, he was quickly catching up to them. 

Because of this, Jin Zhengyin’s mood was complex. After all, he betrayed Zhang Feng. Seeing Zhang Feng getting closer and closer, he naturally couldn’t be happy.

Although Zhang Feng made Hao Xing and the others prepare, he didn’t immediately attack Sima Yin Long. He wanted to see first what Sima Yin Long would do. He was also confident in his treasure ship.

In fact, upon testing the capabilities of the ship, Zhang Feng himself couldn’t help but be surprised. This was because such a huge ship was actually quite agile. Not only can it go forward and backward quickly, its turning speed is also very formidable.

Because of this, although the treasure ship only had one method of attack, Zhang Feng was very confident in it. He believes that the treasure ship wouldn’t suffer against the Black Tiger Ship.

At the same time, Zhang Feng knew that the treasure ship was very fast. Even the Black Tiger Ship couldn’t compare to it. Therefore, Zhang Feng was very calm.

Battles between large artifacts differ from battles between normal artifacts. A normal artifact was controlled by one single person. With enough proficiency, the user could treat their artifact as their additional limb.

On the other hand, large artifacts require multiple people to control it, making its control extremely complex. So it required its attacks to be less complex. This was because a complex attack would affect the attack speed of the artifact. If a large artifact attacks slower than its opponent, then it could only be pushed into a passive state.

Because of this, attacks by large artifacts were very simple, just like the treasure ship. A large artifact having only one method of attack was very normal.

The treasure ship slowly decelerated. When Sima Yin Long saw Zhang Feng, a smirk appeared on his face as he said, “What? You didn’t expect to see me? Just because you have an artifact doesn’t mean you can parade yourself in front of me. Give my orders to accelerate. Tiger leap!”

The tiger leap is one of the offensive methods of the Black Tiger Ship. The ship would accelerate quickly like a leaping tiger. Its main attack came from its two front paws.

Jin Zhengyin nodded and immediately took out a jade sword message to transmit the orders. Zhang Feng originally wanted to chat with Sima Yin Long. He thought that even if Sima Yin Long wanted to slap his face, they should have a conversation first thinking that they were from the same Black Tiger Gang. However, Sima Yin Long didn’t play according to the rules and immediately attacked when the two sides were close to each other.

Although Zhang Feng doesn’t have a tiger ship, he was still very familiar with it. Don’t forget that Zhang Feng’s Martial Uncle was the Gang Leader. Naturally, as Gang Leader, he has the status to use the Black Tiger Ship. Zhang Feng also saw how the Black Tiger Ship fights. Because of this, he was very familiar with the movement of the ship.

Seeing the Black Tiger Ship’s sudden acceleration and its lifting of its paws. Zhang Feng knew that Sima Yin Long was going to attack. Zhang Feng immediately shouted, “Dodge to the left. After he passes, attack its right side!”

The speed of command inside such a large ship was naturally slow, but Zhao Hai already thought of this. He gave Zhang Feng metal tokens. These metal tokens could only be used on the ship. Using these metal tokens, Zhang Feng could give orders to anyone who has other metal tokens, just like a communicator.

There were a lot of such tokens. Even if the treasure ship was full of people, there would still be enough cards to issue. Therefore, Zhang Feng doesn’t need to act like Sima Yin Long who needs to send jade sword messages to his people.

With Zhang Feng’s order, the treasure ship became very flexible and gently leaned to the left. It was just in time to let the Black Tiger Ship pass it over.

Sima Yin Long didn’t expect Zhang Feng’s large artifact to be this flexible. As he was stunned, the treasure ship moved once more and hit the black tiger ship on its right side.

Boom! Two large artifacts collided in mid-air. One ship intended it to happen while the other was caught off-guard. The black tiger ship was shaken by the impact.

However, Zhang Feng didn’t take the opportunity to make another attack. He looked at the tiger ship as he laughed and said, “Sima Yin Long, today is a good day for me. I will no longer play with you here. I will certainly repay the favor one day.” After he said that, the treasure ship accelerated and soon vanished from sight.

Sima Yin Long’s expression was ugly. He didn’t expect the treasure ship to be able to make actions in a small amount of time. This was completely out of his expectations.

Sima Yin Long discovered that he had underestimated Zhang Feng’s large artifact. Although he didn’t know where Zhang Feng got the large artifact, but Sima Yin Long thought that it couldn’t compare to the black tiger ships made by the sect. But this doesn’t seem to be the case. Zhang Feng’s large artifact wasn’t any worse than the black tiger ships.

Looking at the distant treasure ship, Sima Yin Long’s expression turned serious as he said, “Zhang Feng has become a real problem. Retreat!” Jin Zhengyin nodded. He made sure to hide the complex expression in his eyes.

The confrontation between the treasure ship and the black tiger ship was very short. However, people were still able to see it. To be honest, the spectators weren’t optimistic about Zhang Feng’s treasure ship. But they soon changed their thoughts.

Whether they be Inner or Outer Disciples, none of them were fools. They have seen from the battle that the treasure ship was nimble, much more agile compared to the large artifacts they had seen. Although this might be caused by Sima Yin Long underestimating Zhang Feng, it still wouldn’t hide the fact that the treasure ship was not an average large artifact.

Now, the Inner Disciples and Core Disciples have to re-evaluate how they see Zhang Feng’s artifact. Inner disciples who have reached their maximum potential were beginning to lean towards Zhang Feng’s side.

The top ten core disciples have strict standards when it comes to their followers. They wanted their subordinates to be strong and also have potential to grow. Because of this, there have been a lot of Inner Disciples who couldn’t enter their side.

On the other hand, Zhang Feng was more lenient when it came to recruitment. Because his status was inferior to the top ten core disciples, he didn’t have the luxury to choose. If he was strict, then he wouldn’t be able to have people. Because of this, entering Zhang Feng’s faction was easier in comparison.

Some Inner Disciples who declined Zhang Feng’s invitation because they wanted to become core disciples began to change their mind when they saw Zhang Feng’s large artifact.

In the Great World of Cultivation, strength is everything. Zhang Feng’s acquisition of a large artifact meant that his strength has increased. His status was now equal to a Core Disciple. Also, with his Martial Uncle being the gang leader, Zhang Feng was already a step ahead of the top ten core disciples.

Zhang Feng naturally knew that people were watching him. This was his intended effect. Sima Yin Long wanted to slap his face, but he ultimately failed. How could Zhang Feng not be happy?

Before long, Zhang Feng returned to his mountain gate and then stopped the ship at the square used for large artifacts. Although Zhang Feng didn’t have a large artifact in the past, he still had this square made. He believes that he would get a large artifact one day. Zhang Feng just didn’t expect that he would get one so soon.

Once the treasure ship was stopped, Zhang Feng turned to Hao Xing and said, “Little Xing, have everyone take a rest while I see the Gang Leader. If someone comes looking for me, tell them where I am. If they want to visit the large artifact, let them. Besides my floor and the power room, you can show them around the ship.”

Hao Xing complied. After that, Zhang Feng used the transmission formation on the large artifact and went to Tie Zhantian. He wants to discuss the quota for Zhao Hai’s entry to the foreign trial.

When Zhang Feng appeared in Tie Zhantian’s study, Tie Zhantian was reading a jade slip. On that jade slip was information regarding Zhang Feng and Sima Yin Long’s short fight.

Seeing Zhang Feng, Tie Zhantian nodded and said, “Have a seat. You fought with that Sima kid? How is it? If both of you went all out, who would win?”

Zhang Feng smiled faintly and said, “We’d be mutually wounded. However, my ship would be restored in no time while his black tiger ship wouldn’t.”

Tie Zhantian was interested, “Why is that?”

Zhang Feng gave a wide smile as he replied, “Because of the method my treasure ship is made, the damaged sections can be taken down and replaced with ease. With this, I can repair my artifact as long as I have enough parts. As for the black tiger ship, you should know how hard it is to repair.”

Tie Zhantian nodded. As the Black Tiger Gang’s leader, he was clear about the characteristics of the black tiger ship. Just like Zhang Feng said, it would be impossible for the black tiger ship to be repaired in a short period of time. Compared to Zhang Feng’s easily repairable ship, the difference was fatal.

Tia Zhantian was happy for Zhang Feng. He looked at him and said, “Why did you come here?”

Zhang Feng nodded and said, “I want a slot in the foreign trial.”

Tie Zhantian didn’t ask any more as he nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll give one to you. However, you need to be careful. The clans would no longer underestimate you. This is a good time to make a move. People saw your battle with Sima Yin Long. Use this opportunity to win some people over. But you must recruit those who are trustworthy.”

Zhang Feng nodded and said, “Martial Uncle can rest assured. I know what I must do.”

Tie Zhantian nodded, then he looked at Zhang Feng and said, “You’ve been on a steep rise recently. I heard that the Hu Clan are already preparing to target your people. You should pay more attention when you send your subordinates out. Don’t let them act alone. Otherwise, they would be in great danter.” Zhang Feng nodded. Then he bowed towards Tie Zhantian before leaving.

After returning to his mountain, Zhang Feng immediately went to his mansion and entered the quiet room. He sat down and calmed his thoughts. This was because he was currently very excited.

Today’s short fight with Sima Yin Long made Zhang Feng understand the true strength of the treasure ship. At the same time, he felt grateful to Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai only used a short time to make a large artifact comparable to the Black Tiger Ship. This was astonishing talent. If Zhao Hai was given more time, he might be able to make a large artifact that would conquer the skies. Thinking about this, Zhang Feng’s heart couldn’t calm down.

After taking a few deep breaths, Zhang Feng was finally able to calm down. He knew that he was looking too optimistic towards the future. Although large artifacts were good, normal artifacts were still the main weapons of cultivators. But no matter what, Zhang Feng felt himself lucky to have met Zhao Hai. Moreover, he was able to recruit Zhao Hai with little trouble. Zhang Feng believed that recruiting Zhao Hai was the most wise thing he did in the last couple of years.

The matter with the foreign trial was basically dealt with. As for Zhao Hai’s security, Zhang Feng wasn’t worried. Although he only saw Zhao Hai fight one time, Zhang Feng believed that no outer disciple could defeat him. With Zhao Hai’s present strength, going to the foreign trial was the most appropriate. 

Most importantly, Zhao Hai was bestowed with three portions of faith power. As long as he had faith power, Zhang Feng believed that Zhao Hai was safe on the foreign battlefield.

Zhang Feng was now putting more emphasis on training Zhao Hai. Although he trained people in the past, several of them betrayed him. Zhang Feng vowed to himself to not focus on training someone. However, he would make an exception for Zhao Hai. He felt that Zhao Hai was worth it.

As Zhang Feng was thinking inside his quiet room, the Black Tiger Gang was abuzz with conversation. Before today, despite knowing that Zhang Feng has acquired a large artifact, not everyone has seen it nor did they know how strong it was. But now, people understood that Zhang Feng’s large artifact couldn’t be underestimated!
