Divine King of Honour

Xu Nian swiftly darted through the shadows and soon arrived outside the city gates.

He looked up at the huge ship suspended in midair, a faint, light smile appearing on his lips.

By day, the Imperial Prince had ridden this vessel in a grand show of power.

Little did he expect that come night, it would attract a thief.

The Prince would likely never dream that someone would dare target his magnificent airship.

Xu Nian didn't rush into action but first used his Spiritual Sense to probe the great ship.

The search left him slightly taken aback.

Hidden within the vessel was a Marquis Level Demon Beast.

But this Demon Beast was somewhat special.

It was not an animal but a plant-based Demon Beast.

The Purple King Vine!

Although the Purple King Vine was just at One-star Marquis Level,

It was far more dreadful than an ordinary Three-star Marquis Level animal Demon Beast.

Because the tendrils of this Purple King Vine could extend infinitely, and their hardness was comparable to Meteorite Iron.

They couldn't be cut at all.

Furthermore, the tendrils of the Purple King Vine were highly poisonous.

Once ensnared, one would be instantly paralyzed, losing all sensation throughout their body.

Hence, even common Marquis Level powerhouses dared not provoke the Purple King Vine.

"No wonder this Prince is so confident leaving his ship here, turns out there's such a formidable creature hidden aboard," Xu Nian marveled inwardly.@@novelbin@@

Unless one had the ability to probe with Spiritual Sense, like him,

Even a Peak Marquis would

Unknowingly board the ship,

And might very well fall victim to the toxic touch of the Purple King Vine.

"It seems I'm in for some trouble; I'll have to deal with this Purple King Vine first," Xu Nian pondered internally.

A direct confrontation was definitely out of the question.

First of all, in single combat,

Xu Nian was simply no match for the Purple King Vine.

Secondly, should there be a direct clash, it would surely cause quite a commotion.

Moreover, the Purple King Vine was likely bound in a master-servant relationship with the Imperial Prince.

As long as a Spiritual Pet isn't too far away, it can communicate telepathically with its owner.

That means, the moment Xu Nian is discovered by the Purple King Vine,

The Imperial Prince would immediately become aware that someone had infiltrated his Spiritual Ship.

"Interesting, a plant-type Spiritual Pet, boy you've got yourself quite the predicament!" the voice of Emperor Ye Tian amusedly echoed in Xu Nian's mind.

Xu Nian offered a wry smile.

He was indeed in a headache of a situation right now.

To just give up?

Impossible!

Yet stealing Spirit Stones had become much more difficult than he initially expected.

"Call yourself stupid and you won't believe it, you see, killing this Purple King Vine unnoticed is impossible. The only method is to use Spiritual Sense hypnotism," Ye Tian God Emperor spoke again.

"Spiritual Sense hypnotism?" Xu Nian was startled.

This was the first time he had heard the term.

"Essentially, it's about putting the vine to sleep before it notices you, inducing a state of slumber. You've already awakened your Spiritual Sense and with the amplification from the Heavenly Gang Pearl, it should be quite easy to hypnotize it. I'll teach you the technique of hypnotism right now," explained the Yetian God Emperor.

Then, Xu Nian felt a surge of information flood into his brain.

This new data was the method for Spiritual Sense hypnotism.

In fact, the method was rather simple.

It was about playing a melody with the power of Spiritual Sense.

Transmitting it to the mind of the Purple King Vine.

Leading it into a state of deep reflection.

Once he grasped this concept,

Xu Nian immediately set to work.

The power of Spiritual Sense to play a tune was actually not a light task; it required significant control over Spiritual Sense Power.

Xu Nian started off a bit unfamiliar, but gradually he found his rhythm.

Others could not hear the tune played by the Spiritual Sense Power.

Only those who had awakened their Spiritual Sense, and those who were under the spell, could hear it.

It took about a half an hour of hypnotism.

Finally, Xu Nian had successfully hypnotized the Purple King Vine.

After completing all this,

Xu Nian let out a sigh of relief.

He turned into a streak of light and sped onto the giant ship.

Xu Nian had no need to worry about the Purple King Vine suddenly waking up.

Because once subjected to Spiritual Sense hypnotism,

it would not be possible to wake it for ten days to half a month.

That is to say, even if a huge battle were to occur next,

the Purple King Vine could not participate, for it would continue to sleep.

Of course, killing this Purple King Vine was out of the question.

The Purple King Vine had its Demon Core wrapped up tightly.

Xu Nian figured that even just to break through the vines around the Demon Core would take a full half day's time.

He did not have the luxury of wasting such time on this Purple King Vine.

Soon, Xu Nian arrived at the core of the giant ship.

There was an Array Plate at this core.

The Array Plate had thirty-six slots.

And in these slots were placed sparkling, translucent stones.

Each stone was only the size of an eyeball.

But Xu Nian could feel a formidable aura of Spiritual Energy from them.

"These are Spirit Stones, such rich Spiritual Energy, and there are thirty-six of them," Xu Nian expressed in surprise.

The Artifact Refining Sect not possessing a single Spirit Stone, yet this Imperial Prince had thirty-six all at once.

Truly extravagant. Stay tuned with My Virtual Library Empire

"He must have refreshed these Spirit Stones before setting off on this journey. One Spirit Stone can maintain the flight of this giant ship for a month, while thirty-six Spirit Stones can sustain it for exactly three years. Kid, you're lucky; this fellow just replaced them with new ones. Actually, thirty-five of the Spirit Stones' Spiritual Energy is completely intact, with one using less than half of its energy," Emperor Ye Tian's voice rang in Xu Nian's mind.

Hearing this, a look of great joy appeared on Xu Nian's face.

What are we waiting for then?

Take them!

Take them all!

Next, Xu Nian, like a bandit, frantically pried all thirty-six Spirit Stones from their slots.

As all the Spirit Stones were removed, the entire giant ship began to shake and then started to fall.

"This giant ship has the Prince's Soul Mark, but what about this Array Plate? Can it be taken away?" Xu Nian transmitted his voice to Emperor Ye Tian to ask.

Emperor Ye Tian: "..."

Clearly, this guy had become addicted to stealing.

"Kid, you'd better leave quickly. Once the Array Plate runs out of the last bit of Spiritual Energy, the ship will fall. At that time, the Prince will surely be aware of the commotion here," Emperor Ye Tian persuaded.

Upon hearing this, Xu Nian glanced regretfully at the Array Plate.

Then, reluctantly, he transformed into a stream of light and disappeared into the night.

"Boom!"

However, not long after Xu Nian left, the giant ship suspended in mid-air finally depleted its last trace of Spiritual Energy.

It plummeted from the sky and crashed onto the ground, creating a large crater.

The terrifying boom shook the entire Bingluo City.

The people in Bingluo City were instantly alarmed.

In the City Lord Mansion, a Prince who had been entwined with a woman was startled by the sudden roaring noise and immediately lost interest.

He hurriedly put on his clothes and rushed outside the city.

When he reached the core of the giant ship and saw the empty Array Plate,

his eyes instantly turned blood red, and he roared out with a voice that echoed through Bingluo City, "Don't let me catch you, otherwise I will annihilate your entire clan."
