“Master, are you alright?!”
Jin Ming controlled the Corpse Puppet to step forward, looking at Qin Xuan worriedly.
“No worries, I am fine here.”
Qin Xuan waved his hand, glancing at the Corpse Puppet.
“What about you? Are you alright now?”
Hearing Qin Xuan ask this, Jin Ming quickly stepped forward and respectfully bowed to Qin Xuan.
“Master, I am perfectly fine. Although these two things are a bit troublesome, this Corpse Puppet was made with iron essence during its refinement, so there’s no need to worry too much.”
With that, Jin Ming stepped aside.
“Good, you can wait for now.”
Qin Xuan instructed, then turned to look at the Iron Skeleton and Corpse Puppet beside him.
Only now did Qin Xuan have a chance to properly examine these two things.
The Iron Skeleton’s strength should be equivalent to the Yuqing Realm Peak.
Although its combat power was ordinary, its defense was much stronger.
The Iron Skeleton’s defense should be at the Shangqing Realm, right?
Watching as the Spiritual Fire couldn’t even burn through the layer of armor on the Skeleton, Qin Xuan felt a bit envious.
The iron armor on this Iron Skeleton was a good item; even the Black Spiritual Fire couldn’t burn through it, so its quality was likely at the Magic Treasure level.
In comparison, the armor on Qin Xuan’s body was of much lower quality.
Should he try to get it for himself?
Qin Xuan was tempted, but after thinking about it, he shook his head and gave up the idea of the iron armor.
“Forget it, having this thing protect me is enough. Even if I die, I don’t necessarily need iron armor!”
The Iron Skeleton’s defensive capability was astonishing; it could perfectly serve as his meat shield in the future.
His gaze swept across the Iron Skeleton’s rusty sword, and Qin Xuan nodded slightly.
Then he turned his attention to the Puppet beside it.
Compared to the Iron Skeleton, this Puppet’s combat power was higher.
This Puppet’s combat power was equivalent to the second or third stage of the Shangqing Realm.
It looked about the same as the Corpse Puppet’s combat power.
This made things even more stable.
With the Corpse Puppet and this Puppet, he effectively had two Shangqing Realm bodyguards.
Adding the Iron Golem as a meat shield, he was much safer than before.
However, Qin Xuan thought about it again, and his heart stirred.
“Qin Xuan, can you still control this skeleton ship now?”
Just then, Han Ye suddenly asked Qin Xuan.
Qin Xuan was startled, then immediately mobilized the bead within his body.
A moment later, he nodded in surprise.
“Yes, Senior, do you need to go that way? As long as needed, I can control the skeleton ship to move in the designated direction.”
This bone bead was the true core of the entire skeleton ship.
As long as he controlled the bone bead, he could control the entire skeleton ship, allowing it to move freely according to his thoughts.
With a thought from Qin Xuan, the bone bead spun.
A moment later, under his control, hundreds of Skeletons became active again.
They began to control the skeleton ship like sailors, moving it in the direction Qin Xuan wanted.
“Excellent, this is truly a good item. With this bead, this skeleton ship is our safest place; we don’t have to worry about the Eerie Mist at all.”
Han Ye praised, then he returned to Qin Xuan’s Sea of Consciousness.
The Eerie Mist was a tool for communicating with another world. The fact that this skeleton ship could remain unaffected by the Eerie Mist was truly remarkable.
“Since we have now controlled the skeleton ship, we can proceed towards the center according to our original direction,”
Han Ye told Qin Xuan. Calculating the time, the opening of the Kun Peng Nest was very close. If they delayed any longer, there would be a risk of missing it.
Hearing this, Qin Xuan nodded slightly.
“Indeed, this is a good opportunity. Others cannot advance in this black mist, but since I can control the skeleton ship, I can drive it forward.”
“With this skeleton ship, I can get closer to the core area of the Kun Peng Nest more quickly.”
Thinking of this, Qin Xuan immediately gave the order for the skeleton ship to head towards the Kun Peng Nest.
If he had been worried about the Azure Winged Bat Dragon before, that worry vanished in this Eerie Mist.
After all, even the Azure Winged Bat Dragon couldn’t withstand the Eerie Mist.
Since I can control this skeleton ship, does that mean I can even take it with me?
I need to find a way to see if I can take this skeleton ship with me when I leave.
Qin Xuan did not want to leave such a good item here.
All things considered, this would also eliminate a menace for Wu Ji Sea.
“There must be more secrets on this ship.”
The skeleton ship didn’t seem simple no matter how he looked at it.
Being able to imprison so many sea beasts and Human Race on the skeleton ship, there must be many secrets within it.
Qin Xuan had only obtained this one bead for now; he hadn’t fully explored more of its secrets.
This bead could only control the skeleton ship, but who built the skeleton ship?
“It’s a pity that I’m in a hurry to explore the Kun Peng Nest now, and I really don’t have that much time.”
The most urgent task was to rush to the Kun Peng Nest, as the time until its official opening was rapidly decreasing.
He couldn't waste too much time here examining the skeleton ship.
Thinking of this, he controlled these Skeleton sailors, making them accelerate towards the Kun Peng Nest.
Other people only thought of escaping when they saw the Eerie Mist, but Qin Xuan was different.
After gaining control of the skeleton ship, the Eerie Mist could no longer harm him. In his view, this place was already a clear path.
He placed Qian Qian aside, not rushing to wake her up.
The secrets of this skeleton ship were still too numerous; it would be time enough to wake her after leaving this place.
It was better to observe the situation in the Eerie Mist first, lest he suffer an unexpected setback.
Thinking this, Qin Xuan placed Qian Qian in the room, then walked out of the room.
After closing the door and sticking a few Talismans on the outside, Qin Xuan walked to the bow of the ship and looked out.
At this moment, outside the skeleton ship, black Eerie Mist was constantly drifting.
“Senior, you said this ghost object communicates with another world. Is it possible that we might encounter beings from another world in this Eerie Mist?”
Qin Xuan said while observing the front.
At this time, his eyes were fixed on the front, and golden light flickered in his double pupils.
“Probably!”
“After all, since it communicates with two worlds, if creatures from this world can enter other worlds, then creatures from another world can naturally come to our world.”
Han Ye spoke somewhat ambiguously, as he wasn't clear which world the Eerie Mist actually communicated with.
Qin Xuan, however, stared intently ahead.
His double pupils continuously observed the surroundings.
Although it seemed safe now, he was still cautious, lest he suffer an unexpected setback.
A moment later, Qin Xuan’s expression tightened, and he quickly looked to the side.
“What’s wrong?”
Han Ye noticed Qin Xuan’s abnormality. Qin Xuan took a deep breath and pointed to the side.
“There’s something in the Eerie Mist over there; we need to be careful.”
Although an unknown object was approaching, the stone in Qin Xuan’s heart had finally fallen.
After all, from the very beginning, he had felt that this Eerie Mist might not be simple.
Now it seemed his suspicions were correct.
A moment later, a sharp scream came from that direction.
Immediately, Qin Xuan’s expression tensed, and he turned to look at the source of the sound.
A black, bat-shaped monster flew over from the side.
After circling near the skeleton ship for a moment, it directly pounced towards the skeleton ship, attempting to rush onto it.
