Chapter 116: Building the Ship of Life


Isle of Life, the slave auction.

Elves, various beastmen, fairies, and even all sorts of precious materials were being bid on by the Ancestral Witch nobility below.

One by one, slaves were sent up for exhibition.

"I bid ten thousand silver coins."

"I bid seventy thousand!"

Below were some merchant nobles, fat and big-eared, who no longer upheld the martial spirit of the past, with no ambition to explore the stars in the sky, but instead, most of them were greedy for enjoyment.

They even called themselves the Sun Nobility.

Ruling the sun and the earth, the source of the world's breath, descendants of gods and Ancestral Witches, born sacred, looking down on other lives.

"It's really infuriating." Below, disguised as members of the Witch Race, several beastman crew members were watching with extreme anger, "So many of our kin have been captured by slave ships and transported here..."

Zhu Zhengwei, however, watched indifferently.

The Slave Dynasty was always like this, there was simply no so-called equality.

And in the worldview of the Extraordinary World, where the strong reign supreme, this has led to such an extreme slave society.

It seems that when Shiguang Zhizheng, the Great Emperor of the past, overthrew slavery, there was a revival, but in fact, it wasn't so.

Internally, slaves within the race were still not allowed.

While slaves of other races were generally recognized...

"From a certain perspective, isn't modern human society in the 21st century also a slave society?"

"Enslaving, keeping pigs, dogs, cows, and sheep of other races as slaves to serve humans."

"When pigs and dogs gain wisdom, will they enslave us?"

"It's just a racial conflict."

Zhu Zhengwei sighed, pondering the social systems developing in this world.

In a world where there exists more than one intelligent race, would they be friendly?

Even humans themselves can enslave one another, engage in internal strife, and even bicker endlessly on a forum, let alone when other races appear.

The rise of myriad races, a struggle for supremacy among them, this form is inevitable.

Several beastman crew members, hidden in the audience, were very angry.

Although they knew that over the years, with the progress of civilization, there was already the "Anti-Animal Cruelty Protection Law," giving the Beast Race, elves, and humans the minimum dignity, ensuring personal safety.

"Next up is a human slave!"

A robust man was pushed onto the stage with the host's words, "As everyone knows, the Human Race is the shortest-lived, the weakest of the slaves!"

"Their average lifespan is only eighty years, often ugly in appearance, unpleasing, with typically flawed features. Their consciousness is very primitive, even with cultivation, their combat power is on average low, not favored by the gentlemen here!"

"However, they also have strengths."

"The reproductive capability of the Human Race is extremely powerful compared to us! They generally become capable of reproduction by fourteen years old, can give birth in less than a year, and are an excellent choice for short-lived slave labor."

"In comparison, most noble families have had humans as pets. For many in the Witch Race, those brief eighty years of companionship are healing, even eternal, as humans may not be our entire life, but we are their entire life."

The host above continued:

"But the strengths are also evident."

"They are like insects, spread throughout the world, with a fast growth cycle, and a quick cultivation period. Like this young man before us, at just seventeen, he has reached the power level of the fifth-level advanced Ancestral Witch."

Wow!

The entire audience was wowed, deeply shocked.

For these high-level races with an average human lifespan of three hundred years, this cultivation speed was unimaginable.

"How is this human so formidable?"

"It's different. Generally, we only start developing a mature soul and stable consciousness sea at thirty before beginning cultivation... They start at seventeen."

"Heard that Human Race's souls mature by fourteen, enabling them to cultivate Qi Eating... Maturing so early, the consciousness sea is fragile, and the soul is inherently weak, which is why they are often eliminated, yet this human here?"

"Remarkable indeed."

...

A group of fat and big-eared Ancestral Witches whispered amongst themselves.

"Seems like you, the ship doctor, are also of the Human Race?" Lin Anna said, "Wanna save him? Later, let's orchestrate a massive slave liberation project!"

"Up to you." Zhu Zhengwei replied.

Lin Anna nodded, looking at some seats beside her, and sneered, "It's understandable for other races to enslave, but some beastman kings of the Eight Hundred Kings have come here to participate in bidding for beastman slaves of the same race, conversing happily with those in the Witch Race."

"That's normal, traitors within the race are never few, regardless of the era." Zhu Zhengwei's tone was calm.

Zhu Zhengwei watched this, his mind stirred.

The Human Race was no longer the protagonist of Heaven and Earth, treated as slaves in the Ancestral Witch flourishing age...

And quickly, Lin Anna, the Minotaur, began to act. He saw a beastman who had left in the middle go outside, "Help me disguise as the Silver Wolf King... and have the other crew disguise as several of his King Level friends."

Quickly, she donned a mask and followed out.

Before long, the Silver Wolf King returned with some friends, reclaiming their seats with female companions.

"Come, give me a kiss." The Wolf King was as frivolous as ever.

When the auction reached mid-point, the Silver Wolf King slammed the table and laughed loudly, "You Witch Race are a tyrannical force, committing all sorts of misdeeds. Today, I've come to upend this auction, determined to cause a great commotion. Our Beast Race will never be enslaved!"

The auction hall was stupefied.

And soon, a great battle began.

The whole island of the Witch Race was taken aback; no one imagined someone would dare to cause such chaos, and with such overwhelming combat abilities, even a few pseudo-seventh-rank guardians were no match.

Boom!

A war, large enough to shake the entire world and challenge the Witch Race's Twelve Countries, had commenced.

All the slaves were freed, and even the Tree of Life was brutally cut down.

And all this happened in just twenty short minutes!

They did it and fled; it was premeditated.

After this event, in just a few days, nine days under the sun, the few kings and islands governed by the Silver Wolf King's fleet were all purged.

"It wasn't done by them."

A stately Ancestral Witch, sitting on the Sun Vehicle, frowned.

They used various witch skills to extract memories from the dead on-site, confirming their suspicions.

...

"Captain, Lin Anna, Minotaur Race, born in Northwest Bull Tribe, Beastman Continent, close-combat boxing, pseudo-seventh-rank king level, bounty of 700,000 silver dollars."

"Vice-captain, Lin Shi'ai, Minotaur Race, born in Northwest Sheep Cat Race, Beastman Continent, long-range archery, pseudo-seventh-rank king level, bounty of 200,000 silver dollars."

"Ship doctor, unnamed, Ghost Witch Doctor, Human, suspected to possess life transformation skills with both hands, bounty of 200,000 silver dollars."

...

Ultimately, they became world-renowned, shocking countless powerful beings, who both feared and admired them.

Everyone was conjecturing about how these few strong individuals would meet their end.

Soon, the entire Ancestral Witch Twelve Countries could no longer tolerate the hidden threats from various factions, adopting measures like amnesty and bounties against some larger forces.

"We've been discovered." On the ship, Lin Anna felt a bit frightened, "However, I knew from the beginning it wouldn't be simple; being able to disguise ourselves and escape is already not bad, but soon we will die."

Yes.

After offending such a huge entity, no one can escape!

Only the naive Minotaurs like Lin Anna would believe Zhu Zhengwei's nonsense and attack their trademark.

"Don't worry, we're racing against time. With this branch, we'll soon be invincible. In a lifetime, one must fight against the heavens!" Zhu Zhengwei continued to reassure, "Remember how the Ancestral Witch rose to power? They had a Great Emperor who sang heroically, fighting fiercely and bathing in blood on his way... only if one lives a life of song can one experience life and death of all ten directions!"

"You're right! We beastmen must rise too!"

She quickly nodded, immediately forgetting the present danger, shouting slogans: "Brave Bulls, fear no difficulty!"

The Minotaur race are famously simple and honest, easily trusting others.

Zhu Zhengwei no longer paid attention to this simple-minded and stubbornly happy Bull, taking a branch in hand to conduct active cultivation, allowing this Life Tree cell to proliferate.

Soon, this branch kept propagating and multiplying.

Under Zhu Zhengwei's modification, it surprisingly began to grow into a massive ship shape.

"Is this a ship that grows?" she exclaimed.

"Not only that, this is also a living tree, a living ship!" Zhu Zhengwei smiled, "It absorbs sunlight and the water below, growing on its own; it's a hydroponic plant."

"Will it grow elves?" everyone asked.

"It won't grow Great Elves, but it will grow little elves without consciousness to gather resources for the Ship of Life." Zhu Zhengwei stated calmly, "In any case, just watch and see. I will create a method for breaking through to the seventh rank here."

Zhu Zhengwei dared to be so reckless because he was confident.

One must know, he himself is a King of Competition; he's not without abilities. With Zhang Zhi and others playing so dirty, how could he not have a few tricks up his sleeve?

Even as a mortal, his outcome will not be weak.

It's just that, usually as a deity, there are too many tasks to do, leaving no time.

Crash!

Soon, wooden beads composed of Life Tree cells appeared before them.

This bead is a weapon with countless magic cells, "It has a total of seven layers, each like a sieve, with increasingly dense holes. When you break through to the seventh layer, your spiritual power will be enough to advance to the seventh rank."

"I call this bead the Boundary-breaking Pearl, a tool for extreme pressure to train your spiritual power... Making it is very complex."

The crew members were already used to it, watching Zhu Zhengwei fervently as he promised them a beautiful blueprint.

"And then, tell us, how do we train this time?" Lin Anna's face suddenly became dry and worried.

"This time, time is very tight."

Zhu Zhengwei said seriously, "I suggest each of you get a bead and train for twenty-three hours a day, because after this, if we don't break through within a month, we'll die!"

Everyone wore expressions of hopelessness.

"Only if one lives a life of song can one experience life and death of all ten directions!" Zhu Zhengwei continued inspiring fervor, "This time, if you overcome the ten directions of life and death, you will be the next Celestial Emperor!"
