A giant merchant ship crossing Middle-earth was slowly swaying in mid-air.

Ning Chen held his head in his hands and leaned on the side of the ship, staring at the beautiful scenery covered by clouds and mist.

The Shenzhou Continent is different from the north.

Due to the vast territory here, and the unwritten rules between continents and even dynasties, foreign travel is carried out by air vehicles, and the entry time is limited.

If you miss this class, you will have to wait for a long time.

In addition, traveling without permission is prone to risks, unless it is the kind of strength that is so high that it is difficult for ordinary forces to balance, or a disciple from a famous family.

To put it bluntly, the existence of merchant ships is a popular means to restrict the circulation of ordinary people.

Most of the time, it is not suitable for the monks.

Mo said that a person like Ning Chen, a person like Ning Chen, and a half bucket of water like Su Gou, who is not up to the level of cultivation, can also easily enter and exit the major regions of the mainland.

However, considering that the distance is too long, it is far inferior to a merchant ship to travel alone.

In this way, taking a boat is nothing more than an optimal choice for convenient travel.

This large ship entering Middle-earth is very large, often one round trip, and can carry tens of thousands of people.

And there are a lot of infrastructure facilities on merchant ships, such as taverns, restaurants, clothing, rice shops, and stages for monks to compete in martial arts, etc., and you can stay on them for a year and a half, and you don't have to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation, and you don't feel bored.

Of course, the greater reason for the existence of merchant ships is that this journey is too far away, and there are no special means, and it will take at least a month to get to Middle-earth.

For ordinary people, it takes too long and is easy to delay.

Because Ning Chen and Su Gou were temporarily on the boat at the ferry, they were not far from Middle-earth.

"There are a group of monks nearby who are reselling magic weapons, are you interested in going and taking a look?"

Just when Ning Chen was alone in a daze, Su Gou carried a jar of wine and approached to suggest.

Ning Chen turned his head and smiled, "Magic weapon? What's the point? ”

"If you mention magic weapons, it's very particular."

Su Gou raised his head and poured a glass of wine, putting on an old-fashioned appearance.

Ning Chen moved his body and waited for the following.

"Cultivators like you and me, who still don't forget the path of promotion after a long journey, what is the purpose of?" Su Gou threw out a question and asked rhetorically.

Ning Chen thought for a moment and replied, "Naturally, it's to become stronger." ”

"What is strong?" Su Gou asked again.

Ning Chen's five fingers clenched into a fist and shook it through the void, "For example, like me, under one punch, you are still a half-king, and all fans will be broken." ”

Su Gou's brows jumped, and his emotions were complicated.

It was originally a very joyful topic, but he never thought about Ning Chen's words, which made him gasp.

Among the people of the same generation, the other party is so strong, Yu Sugou's psychological impact is naturally great, but envy continues, as for hatred, there is no at all.

But, then again, although he was shocked, he had to say that with Ning Chen's current strength, what supreme powerhouse, what half-step human king, really couldn't stop his fist.

Otherwise, Chen Ke and Li Liuxiang, who have been famous for decades, would die so easily?

However, that's not the center of the conversation.

"Ahem." Su Gou quickly adjusted his mentality and continued, "Strictly speaking, the cultivators of the Divine Continent are divided into two camps, one is the pure martial artist who walks the path of the flesh. ”

"This kind of representative, such as the undefeated golden body of Buddhism."

"The other group is cultivators, refining swordsmanship, sword skills, or talismans, refining weapons, etc., in short, there are many methods, and they are a family of their own."

"However, the avenues of the world are all different paths, to put it bluntly, it is still to become stronger."

Ning Chen was still confused in the face of Su Gou's explanation, or rather, he could probably understand it, but it was like exploring flowers in the fog, and he could only glimpse the prototype.

Su Gou looked at Ning Chen's dazed demeanor, and finally had a sense of accomplishment.

He snapped his fingers, sat up straight, and said seriously, "Pure martial arts don't need anything outside, just build yourself into an iron plate, let your sword be unmatched, it is still difficult to hurt me an inch, to the peak point, it is basically a symbol of true invincibility." ”

"Go on." Ning Chen instructed.

"Compared to martial arts, there are too many ways for cultivators to become stronger, and relying on things outside their bodies also accounts for the vast majority of them."

Su Gou said, "A sword weapon of a good grade can help the master win with one blow when the realm of each other is equal, and the sword is something outside the body to people." ”

"The stronger the things outside the body, the higher the bonus to the cultivator."

"Now you say that, do you understand?"

Explaining to this point, how could Ning Chen not understand?

Back then, he was able to kill Huang Tianba in Xishu with one sword, but to a large extent, he relied on the credit of the Great Liang Dragon Sparrow.

The head of the ten swords itself represents the supremacy of the Great Liang Dragon Sparrow.

However, Ning Chen still had doubts, "According to what you mean, once the divine sword weapon encounters a pure martial artist, what is the use of these things outside the body of the latter, if the latter King Kong is not bad?" ”

Su Gou's eyes widened, and he said incredulously, "Do you think there are many pure martial artists who have cultivated Vajra's incorruptible physique?" ”

"Not much?"

Ning Chen glared.

Su Gou said solemnly, "Not only are there not many, but there are only a handful, after all, the martial artists who have reached the end are too rare, and it is very terrifying to appear in ten thousand years." ”

"Because of these prerequisites, on the Terran side, nine out of ten people will choose to become cultivators without hesitation, rather than pure martial arts."

Ning Chen touched his chin thoughtfully.

In several games, he was able to solve the opponent with one move, mainly because the realm was too high, so he could save trouble by making a move, and his physical body was very strong, so he could naturally see immediate results.

But, strictly speaking, he is not a pure martial artist, but a cultivator of swordsmanship.

"Therefore, the magic weapon is still very important to us people, the higher the level of the items outside the body, the stronger the combat effectiveness, and it is also beneficial to our own Dao understanding."

Su Gou raised his head and fell, and said with a final word.

Ning Chen raised his eyebrows, looked at the crowded stall not far away, and said with a smile, "Why don't you go and have a look now?" ”

Su Gou immediately agreed, "Let's go." ”

Although the scene is simple, there is only a small stall, but there are a lot of people around, three layers inside and three layers outside, all of which are human figures.

After the two finally squeezed in, they found that the stall owner was making trouble, spitting and reselling a stone the size of a skull.

Ning Chen was embarrassed, "This is also a magic weapon?" ”

Su Gou was stunned, so he said in a mysterious way, "Maybe there is an ancient divine sword in the stone, a flying immortal outside the sky or something, you can't underestimate it." ”

Ning Chen pouted, and listened to a joke.

"Where are the wild dogs, get out of the way, don't get in the way of my son-in-law."

Ning Chen was just about to turn around and leave, when an angry shout came, and then a big hand like a grinding disc tried to press Ning Chen's shoulder and pull him out of the crowd.

"Huh?"

Ning Chen's heart froze, and his eyes were filled with murderous light.
