TN: There are a lot of puns in this chapter compared to normal, scroll to the end to see the explanations.
Over 2000 types of Qi Training realm scriptures, this should encompass just about every kind of people, and is exactly what Gu Qing Shan needs right now.
He put the jade brick away carefully, ready to put it to use when he returns to Reality.
After that, he keeps bathing in the medicine water again and again.
The secret medicine of Spirit Leaf Temple really is exceptionally potent.
At noon on the second day, Gu Qing Shan can feel himself already getting much better.
Having been inside his tent for so long, he decided to go out for a bit of fresh air.
At the moment, there were numerous tools and materials used for forging littered around the empty area outside his camp.
Qin Xiao Lou was concentrated on making an airship.
Seeing how he’s so concentrated, Gu Qing Shan decided not to bother him and walk around the camp instead.
The entire camp was rowdy, full of spirit.
Everyone who saw him greeted him with respect and enthusiasm.
Makes sense, after all, by himself he revealed the spirit beast’s scheme, created a sudden attack plan, and helped humanity win a decisive battle like never before.
There were no casualties in that battle, not a single cultivator fell.
Everyone here more and less owed Gu Qing Shan one.
Gu Qing Shan smiled while walking, greeting members of the sects on his way.
He saw that other cultivators are also busy making their own airships as well.
After thinking about it for a bit, Gu Qing Shan understood.
Humanity can no longer trust the spirit beasts.
But flying by their own power is a waste of spirit energy.
It’s fine in battle, for the sake of winning, they’d even use 200% of their spirit energy if they could.
But if they have to fly on their own while marching as well, that’s too tiring.
If they happen to meet an ambush and wasted too much spirit energy from flying while on the march, leading to not having enough spirit energy to fight, that’ll be a really regrettable death.
Another grand battle is about to come.
So everyone unanimously decided to make airships.
Although these things cost spirit stones to operate and fly, that’s still much better than having to fly on you own.
Not to mention, you can set up Spirit Funnel formations the airships themselves to help recover and meditate during the march.
While walking, Gu Qing Shan saw a beautifully made airship from afar.
A beautiful “Xi” character was painted on both sides of the ship, decorated with an elegant but less noticeable orchid, but still very eye-catching overall.
Walking up to ask the cultivators making it, Gu Qing Shan found out it really was Ning Yue Xi’s airship.
She just got promoted to Ding Yuan General, so there were many things that she had to do, having to ask others to make an airship for her while she dealt with other matters.
Looking around a bit more, Gu Qing Shan found that all the airships more and less has a signature decoration on them.
Some are patterns, drawings, some are calligraphy characters, either way, they show who the owner is.
That way, it’ll be easy to tell who is who on the way.
Acquaintances can meet up and greet each other, while sects that don’t necessarily get along can tell at a glance and stay away from each other.
Gu Qing Shan returned to his own tent.
At this time, Qin Xiao Lou had finished making an airship, currently contemplating something very seriously.
“What’s the matter” Gu Qing Shan asked him.
“Hah! Hah!” Qin Xiao Lou sighed, then pointed at the airship and asked: “Do you know about West Mountain Sword sect?”
“I do”
“West Mountain Sword sect has four young famous sword cultivators, they’re respectively Ma Ru Feng, Zhang Xiao Yu, Liu Lei and Wu Zhui Dian“
“Hm, I think I heard people talk about them before”
“They got a title for themselves”
“Ah? So what did they do?” Gu Qing Shan was intrigued.
“Nothing special, they only painted the last character of their names onto their airships, which respectively are Feng, Yu, Lei, Dian; plus since they themselves aren’t weak, they’re now known collectively as the West Mountain Four Swords”
“West Mountain Four Swords?” Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised.
“Yeah, Feng Yu Lei Dian, West Mountain Four Swords” (1)
Qin Xiao Lou looked very envious and continued: “The name is so catchy and easy to remember, it probably won’t be too long until everyone knows about it”
“Ah, Ning Yue Xi also had a ‘Xi’ painted on hers” Gu Qing Shan added.
“Right? I just knew, everyone love things like this recently”
“That’s a really insignificant detail though” Gu Qing Shan still didn’t understand.
“What do you mean insignificant detail? You of all people should know what important a title is, whenever you go out, people will keep calling you with your title; after a while, it’ll stick so that you won’t be able to change it anymore” Qin Xiao Lou explained.
“That’s true” thinking about it like that, Gu Qing Shan did feel that that’s the case.
“Junior brother, the two of us has to get a catchy title as well” Qin Xiao Lou patted his shoulder and said.
“There’s only two of us, how would we get a title?” Gu Qing Shan found that a bit hard.
“So what if we’re only two people, just look at Xia Zong sect’s Shen Yan and Li Xiao Yu. One of them is a Rejuvenation realm beauty, while the other is a Golden Core late stage idol, they respectively drew some wild geese and a small fish on their airships, which people dub as ‘Shenyu Luoyan’” (2)
As they were talking, something happened.
The sky suddenly became dim.
Black clouds gathered and thunder roared.
Flashes of lightning struck a certain part of the camp one after another.
“Is someone facing the Tribulation? Quick, get on the airship, we’ll go take a look” Qin Xiao Lou excitedly said.
Gu Qing Shan then got on the airship as Qin Xiao Lou took a few chunks of spirit stones out and placed them into the engine furnace of the ship.
Under his control, the airship slowly rose to the sky.
When they looked down at the area of the camp, it’s already covered in a rain of lightning.
Innumerable lightning came down, striking at a single person in the yard.
As they looked carefully, they saw it was a pretty female cultivator.
She was concentrating on controlling her personal treasure to resist against the rain of lightning.
Everyone watching were staying as far as they could and even held their breath so as not to break her concentration.
“Ah, it’s Xia Zong sect’s Li Xiao Yu” Qin Xiao Lou sounds a bit excited, “so she was already getting ready to break through to Rejuvenation realm”
While Foundation Establishment had four stages, Golden Core only has three, and you can already attempt breaking through to Rejuvenation realm at Golden Core late stage.
“If she successfully breaks through, then the “Shenyu Luoyan’ combo will officially become the title of two Rejuvenation realm female cultivators ——–this is Rejuvenation realm we’re talking about, so their title will become official” Qin Xiao Lou praised.
Sure enough, while looking around Gu Qing Shan saw members of Xia Zong sect were keeping order around the area.
Even Xia Zong sect’s master was here, carefully looking around to avoid any disturbances.
When facing a Heaven’s Tribulation, the cultivator has to concentrate with all they have, which means they won’t have any mind to look out for sneak attacks and can easily die to one.
Not to mention, if someone tries to help, the power of the Lightning Tribulation will increase, almost doubling in power.
Which makes the chance of breaking through exceptionally slim.
After watching for a while, the rain of lightning finally stopped, while Li Xiao Yu stood still, eyes closed.
A huge spirit pressure began to emit from her body.
“She succeeded” Qin Xiao Lou was envious.
Golden Core realm cultivators can be considered the main bulk of fighting power for the cultivation world, while Rejuvenation realm cultivators are the high-tiered fighting strength.
There’s a very clear line there.
Because the amount of spirit energy that Rejuvenation, Ascended, and Sainted realms can gather and use is incomparable to those in Foundation Establishment and Golden Core.
The airship quickly landed back on the ground.
Qin Xiao Lou went into contemplation again.
“They’re now officially dubbed ‘Shenyu Luoyan’” he muttered: “As brothers in Bai Hua sect, what kind of title would suit us?”
“You just keep thinking, I’ll go take another medicine bath” Gu Qing Shan said and went inside.
That afternoon, when Gu Qing Shan finally came out of the tent again, he saw two airships already made.
Looking at them, Gu Qing Shan’s entire body froze.
The two ships both had beautiful calligraphy characters painted on them with a green lacquer.
One of them said “Qing”
The other said “Lou”
Gu Qing Shan’s qing, and Qin Xiao Lou’s lou. (3)
Qin Xiao Lou stood on one side, admiring his masterpiece.
Gu Qing Shan sighed, silently walked up and very serious said: “Senior brother, if you do this, Shifu will be very unhappy”
Note:
(1) Feng Yu Lei Dian: in order, their names mean “Wind”, “Rain”, “Thunder”, “Lightning”, which goes together well
(2) Shenyu Luoyan: the two girl’s names are Xiao Yu and Yan, which means little fish and goose respectively. Shenyu Luoyan literally translate to be “birds fall and fish dive”, a common way to describe a beautiful woman, so much that her beauty causes birds to fall and fish to dive from staring at her too much. Their sect Xia Zong also happens to mean “down river”
(3) Qing Lou: literally means “green building” or if you remember a certain note I wrote around 100+ chapters ago, a brothel.
