Chapter 313 Perfect Control
The people on the other Violet Hero Battleships didn’t expect the beam of light to aim for them as the ship abruptly halted.
Boom!
With an explosive, loud noise, a hole was blasted into the battleship and it was sent crashing to the ground amidst billowing smoke.
Flames shot into the sky, casting a red glow on the faces of Du Xingchuan, Xiaomu and the other cultivators. It highlighted their wide eyes, dilated pupils, lifeless expressions, and the looks of disbelief.
Why is it attacking our people?
What the hell is it doing?
Boom—
The Violet Hero Battleship plunged to the ground, created an explosion and sent flames and plumes of black smoke into the air.
Undoubtedly, the cultivators on the downed Violet Hero Battleship wouldn’t survive!
The loud boom snapped Du Xingchuan and the others awake from their shocked silence.
“How is it like this?”
“What the hell is happening?”
“Damn it! That’s a Violet Hero Battleship. If one is destroyed, it’s the same as losing thousands of gold coins!”
Even Du Xingchuan was baffled by the situation.
Immediately, he noticed another Violet Hero battleship rushing over from the distance. The violent movements had alerted it.
Meanwhile, the first Violet Hero Battleship activated its rune cannons. All the rune patterns on the cannons lit up brightly.
This is bad!
Du Xingchuan’s heart sank.
Boom!
Another shot was fired. The Violet Hero Battleship flying over from the distance didn’t understand the situation and repeated the same mistake. It was hit hard and brought down with a loud bang.
“Boss, things aren’t right!” Xiaomu roared in anger.
“There’s no need to guess. The target must have hijacked a Violet Hero Battleship!”
Du Xingchuan’s face clouded over. He was very stupid if he didn’t know what was happening.
”What? Hijacked by the target?”
”F*ck! That’s a Violet Hero Battleship! Even Spirit Sea cultivators can’t open the hatch! How could the target hijack it?
“Also, a person needs to know a unique set of art to control the Violet Hero Battleship. How would the target know that?”
Commotions broke out. Everyone was stunned by the sudden change. They felt the world had become unreal and absurd.
It was indeed too unbelievable. The Violet Hero Battleship was their greatest killing weapon that they could rely on, but two ships had been destroyed and one had been controlled by the target. Who would be able to accept that truth?
“Boss, what should we do now?” Xiaomu asked in worry.
However, he saw Du Xingchuan totter like he couldn’t bear the blow as he said in a trembling voice, “It’s over. Everything is over. If I knew this would happen, I would have retreated already…then this wouldn’t have happened…”
“Boss, what do we do?” Xiaomu yelled, his heart bleeding.
However, Du Xingchuan coughed up a mouthful of blood, his face blanched, and his eyes became dull and lifeless.
“Retreat, quickly retreat. It will be disastrous if we don’t leave now.”
Du Xingchuan’s voice was weak and hoarse. He seemed to have lost all his strength. It was easy to imagine what sort of impact the blow had on him.
“Retreat! Everyone retreat!” Xiaomu roared.
The cultivators had already lost their fighting spirit and were standing in stunned silence. But when they heard the roar, they immediately fled in panic like stray dogs.
At the same time, Xiaomu carried Du Xingchuan and bolted into the darkness like a madman.
He knew that their operation had failed, and they couldn’t turn the situation around. Their priority right now was to save their own lives. Other things were no longer important.
……
Meanwhile, Lin Xun was steering the Violet Hero Battleship. The battleship resembled a nimble bird in the sky as it navigated around the clouds and left mysterious trails behind it.
He perfectly controlled the rune treasure steering wheel with no difficulty.
After all, he was the one who designed the Violet Hero Battleship.
It could be said that Lin Xun had designed the uses of each of the rune patterns and the power of the aeth engine. This was the reason why he could so skillfully control the battleship and stun all the cultivators.
The Violet Hero Battleship roared forward at full speed and it didn’t take long for it to locate a new target.
Two Violet Hero Battleships were moving forward in the night, aggressively heading his way.
Lin Xun was most surprised that the opponents had already noticed something was wrong as they initiated an attack the moment they saw he was driving the Violet Hero Battleship.
Rumble—
Artillery fire crisscrossed the sky, tearing apart the night and making it bright as day.
Lin Xun looked incredibly calm as he swiftly maneuvered the battleship to dodge the attacks. Although it was his first time driving a battleship in battle, he wasn’t the least afraid.
His confidence stemmed from the fact that he had perfect understanding and control of the Violet Hero Battleship!
Swoosh!
Lin Xun’s Violet Hero Battleship was like a butterfly dancing in the sky. Its movements were smooth and elegant as it narrowly evaded the series of attacks one after another.
It was as though the Violet Hero Battleship had come to life. All the cultivators on the other two Violet Hero Battleships were in stunned disbelief. How is that possible?
It was the first time they saw someone able to perfectly control the Violet Hero Battleship to such a degree.
Their control was extremely poor in comparison!
“Quick! Fire with all your might!”
“Damn it! Damn it! Who is controlling that Violet Hero Battleship?”
Furious roars filled the two other battleships. Everyone was in disbelief about Lin Xun’s skilful control of the battleship.
Rumble—
The clash between the battleships in the air was an extraordinary scene. Cannon light streaked across the sky like meteors and illuminated the mountains and rivers.
Mountain rocks crumbled and the ground split apart. A scene of devastation was everywhere.
It was no different from a duel between Spirit Sea cultivators.
Strangely, Lin Xun didn’t launch an attack and was only constantly dodging the attacks. It was as though he was waiting for an opportunity.
The cultivators on the two Violet Hero Battleships were thrown into a state of panic. It was as if they were facing a venomous python. The python constantly moved in a wavy motion, waiting to strike the most fatal blow!
It didn’t matter how the two battleships coordinated or what tactics they adopted. From beginning to end, they failed to inflict any damage on their enemy.
On the contrary, they continued to consume a lot of high-grade aeth crystals with their continuous attacks.
Soon, a cultivator screamed on one of the Violet Hero Battleships. “No, there is only one high-grade aeth crystal left. We must land immediately! Otherwise, the battleship will lose power and fall from the air!”
All cultivators on the battleship froze like they had fallen into an ice cave.
No matter what, their lives were most important. In the face of death, the cultivators steered the battleship to the distance and prepared to land.
However, Lin Xun was precisely waiting for that moment and he unhesitatingly launched the fiercest attack.
Rumble—
Artillery fire rained out and battered the night like a whip as it enveloped the fleeing battleship.
Instantly, the Violet Hero Battleship exploded from the impact and plunged from the sky.
At the same time, the enemies on the other battleship halted abruptly in a panic and sped madly in the opposite direction, crushing the clouds in the way.
It was too terrifying!
They had to escape in time because they knew they wouldn’t be a match for their opponent.
Their only way to survive was to escape.
However, they had underestimated Lin Xun’s ability. After he destroyed one of the Violet Hero Battleships, he steered the battleship and made an exaggerated and dangerous 180 degree turn in mid-air.
He rapidly caught up to the remaining last Violet Hero Battleship and destroyed it with his powerful artillery fire.
As Lin Xun watched the flames and smoke billow into the sky, he thought of the little girl Luoluo. He recalled her kind and gentle mother and the rune shuttle that was destroyed under the cannon fire of a Violet Hero Battleship.
“I have helped you get revenge. I hope you can rest in peace now...” Lin Xun muttered, but his expression didn’t ripple in the slightest. He might have avenged her, but his path to revenge had only just begun!
Will it be over once the enemy retreated?
Will it be over once I reach the Forbidden City?
No!
He knew that the encirclement operation against him wouldn’t end so easily!
The Chi Clan that was behind the operation and the possible mighty force behind the Chi Clan were the true culprits!
Whether it was for revenge or to find out the truth of why they tried to prevent him from going to the Forbidden City, Lin Xun wouldn’t let go of his hatred.
A sharp sound in the battleship’s core area startled Lin Xun. Then, he carefully steered the battleship to safety and landed.
Bang!
The moment the hatch was opened, he vanished into the night in a flash.
The Violet Hero Battleship was an amazing treasure. It was invaluable, but unfortunately, its high-grade aeth crystals were close to exhaustion and couldn’t be used anymore.
Lin Xun had to give up on the battleship.
Before he left, he had gathered all the valuable things on the battleship and also destroyed the aeth engine at the battleship’s core.
Even if the enemies took the ship back, they would have trouble repairing it to its original state.
Wu—
Lin Xun suddenly halted his running and looked up. He saw a wind shadow hawk hovering in the sky.
A smile came to his lips and he silently waved at the hawk. He retracted his gaze and continued ahead
