Chapter 804 - A Spirit Boat

Lin Mu and the rest watched on in antic.i.p.ation as Jing Luo pulled out what looked like a large boat.

"What is this?" King Hong questioned, having never seen something like this.

But Lin Mu had an idea about what this thing was.

"A Sky boat? A spirit Vehicle?" Lin Mu said.

"Indeed. I actually had an incomplete project since a long time ago. I think I started it back when I was still in my clan, but I never had the chance or the resources to get working on it again after the fall.

But now… with some new inspiration, I got from the knowledge you gave me, I managed to change the design a bit and also improve it." Jing Luo explained.

Spirit boats were one of the most common types of spirit vehicles. Spirit vehicles were basically used by cultivators to travel long distances when there was more than one of them.

This was especially useful when their cultivation bases were mismatched or their speeds were not the same. Using a spirit vehicle, they could travel together and it was also a lot safer.

There were many types of spirit vehicles, but spirit boats were the ones that were used the most by individual cultivators.

Spirit vehicles were different than spirit weapons, even though both were used to travel. It was just that the spirit vehicles were specially made by travel and did not necessarily have the same offensive capabilities.

Though they did have extra defenses that protected the travelers during the journey. Of course, there were also many other types and this was not an absolute restriction.

There were in fact, great spirit vehicles that could both attack and defend and were often used as moving artillery in great wars. Lin Mu had read about them in the Lost Immortal's memoirs.

In fact, the Lost Immortal himself had partic.i.p.ated in one such war where large offensive spirit vehicles were used. The vehicles in question were large galleons that had long range spirit weapons mounted on them like cannons and ballistas.

They seemed similar to mortal artillery but were greatly different in power. The Lost immortal had seen the power of such spirit vehicles and just how useful they could be in the war.

A single such sprint vehicle could not only transport a large number of cultivators, it could also attack and provide them cover while they did their tasks. It could also come and pick them up when the need so arose.

Overall, it was a very versatile object and many cultivators wanted it. Of course, a spirit vehicle was ultimately a type of Spirit tool and needed an equal level of expertise to make.

Most spirit vehicles started from the high grade since their material costs were high. While ones from lower quality materials could be made, their speed wouldn't necessarily be as high as that of the spirit weapons of the same grade that would still cost many times lower than the spirit vehicle.

That's why a spirit vehicle that was as basic as a spirit boat would still be a high grade spirit tool and was expensive for most cultivators to keep for themselves. It was large organizations, kingdoms, empires, and cultivation sects that actually kept and used them.

Since they needed to transport a large number of their people and their finances were strong, they had no problem in affording them. Though there were always some rich cultivators that could afford one on their own and use them for their own private transport.

Lin Mu didn't know Jing Luo could make spirit vehicles, which came as a nice surprise.

He observed the spirit boat and recognized some of the material used in the making of it.

"Oh? The bones of the Green tailed howler monkey chief? I thought you were going to make a weapon from this?" Lin Mu asked.

"I was, but then there would be no use for that weapon other than lying in my storage. You don't need spirit weapons and neither do I, so I thought it would be better to use it in this instead." Jing Luo replied.

Lin Mu nodded his head and saw the skillful way in which the bones were used. The ribs of the Green tailed howler monkey chief were used in combination with other materials to make the body of the shape.

It was smoothed out and made to look even. Though, unlike a normal boat, it did not have any oars or rudders to control it. After all, it was a spirit weapon and had no use for something like that.

"How do we use it?" Lin Mu asked.

"Jump in, I'll show you." Jing Luo replied and they all got in.

Little Shrubby sat at the very back, as that was the widest area, while King Hong and Lin Mu sat in the middle. Jing Luo sat at the very front, where a slam pedestal was attached to the floor of the spirit boat.

Runes were carved on the pedestal and fine lines that looked like veins spread from the pedestal to the spirit boat's surface. These lines were only on the inside and not on the outside.

Instead, there were flat and long rectangular patterns on the outside that were actually another defensive formation layered directly onto the surface of the spirit boat.

"The control of the spirit boat is every simple. It's almost the same as that of any spirit weapon, the only difference is that you need to have direct physical contact at all times and pour your spirit Qi into it.

I wanted to make another version that could use spirit stones as fuel alternatively, but I didn't have the time. So we just have to make do with this one for now." Jing Luo said.

"Alright. Guess I'll run it. I should be able to keep up with the spirit Qi use with little problem." Lin Mu said.

"Yes, since your cultivation base is the highest, you can run the spirit boat at the fastest speed as well.." Jing Luo replied.
