Chapter 1555: I want to merge them with the immortal boat (2 in 1)

Translator: GodBrandy Editor: Kurisu

Song Shuhang said, “The speed of the delivery was so fast. It’s already this late into the night, yet they’re still hard at work delivering the orders. This kind of attitude and efficiency... deserves a five-star rating, no?”

Doudou nodded. “You do have a point. However, the account you used to buy the immortal boat was Stupid Yellow Mountain’s. We can just wait a few days after receiving the goods and then give a bad review. At that time, even if she wants to crawl through the Internet cables and hit someone, it would be Stupid Yellow Mountain.”

“...” Song Shuhang.

He felt that at least 30% of why Senior Yellow Mountain was so tired every day was Doudou’s fault.

“Let’s open the box and see what the customized immortal boat looks like.” Doudou rolled on the ground, transformed into a big monster dog, and began to unbox the huge box for Song Shuhang.

After the box was opened, a silver-white minivan was revealed.

It was over five meters in length, yet it looked elegant and beautiful.

The logo of the car was a logo Song Shuhang had never seen before, a small pagoda within a circle.

Song Shuhang opened the door, and found that the interior was similar to that of a normal minivan, just that the configurations of this one were more advanced.

“Huh? Surprisingly, this vehicle seems to suit my tastes. Next time, I’ll also order one of these immortal boats for myself.” Doudou shrunk his body and went to the backseats.

He skillfully laid down all the seats in the back row, and then gently pressed a button on the back of the main driver’s seat, causing an inflatable bed to expand, and thus creating a large bed at the back of the car.

Doudou happily said, “Woof~ They really installed an air bed. When I ordered a hand-guided tractor style immortal boat previously, I strongly requested them to add this design. They actually added it to your immortal boat this time. Woof, woof~”

After shrinking his body, he rolled around in the back of the minivan immortal boat. Rolling from the front to the back, and then from the back to the front.

After a round of rolling, Doudou stretched out his paws to pull at the rear of the car, pulling out of a dog food bowl.

“Haha, they also added this design,” Doudou said happily. He took out the dog food he bought with Song Shuhang during the day, and poured it all into the bowl.

“Then, the place where the computer can be set... Yes, this is it. This way, I can just play on my stomach. Woof~”

“I like this car, it satisfies me too much,” Doudou concluded. “As long as the speed satisfies me, I must order one for myself.”

“...” Song Shuhang.

He wondered if it was just him seeing things, but why did he get the feeling that this ‘minivan immortal boat’ was tailor-made for Doudou?

The various designs seem to be placed to satisfy Doudou’s hobbies. The whole car revealed its thoughtfulness towards Doudou.

Doudou suggested, “Let’s goooo. Shuhang, let’s go for a drive.”

“Wait, let me first ask how this immortal boat operates,” Song Shuhang said.

He went onto the ‘Huipo No. 1111 Game Equipment Trading Platform’ and contacted Fairy Little Ke. “I’ve received the immortal boat. Is there an instruction manual?”

Little Ke quickly replied, “Yes, Senior Yellow Mountain. The instruction manual is in the storage compartment of the immortal boat’s passenger seat. In addition, your immortal boat has three operating modes. The minivan mode, immortal boat mode, and mecha mode. You can try them out.”

Song Shuhang replied, “Okay, I’ll check it out.”

In such a short period of time, they were even able to produce an instruction manual. They were truly professional providers of immortal boats.

Song Shuhang opened the storage compartment, and found that it contained a thick manual.

Besides the instruction manual, there were the vehicle’s purchase invoice, certificate of conformity, driving permits, and the like... There was even a license plate.

As expected of professionals, Song Shuhang praised Fairy Little Ke again in his mind.

He flipped through the instruction manual.

The minivan mode was similar to that of an ordinary car.

The immortal boat mode was an enhancement of the minivan mode, and it had a series of functions like illusion mode, shield deployment, flight control, diving, escape, and space flight.

Generally speaking, the maneuvering method of this immortal boat was simplified as much as possible, and it seemed to be foolproof. It looked like it was simplified so that it could be operated even by a dog.

“Why do I keep on getting the feeling that this is not my immortal boat but Doudou’s?” This feeling in Song Shuhang’s heart became stronger and stronger.

He entered the main driver’s seat, and familiarized himself with the interface of the immortal boat mode.

After writing down the driving method, Song Shuhang nodded. “Alright, let’s go and fly around.”

❄️❄️❄️

Song Shuhang loaded the immortal boat into the Inner World, went out of Medicine Master’s Building, and then found an empty space to bring it out.

After entering the immortal boat, he first turned on its illusion mode to prevent ordinary people from peeking at them.

Then, he stretched out his hand and pressed onto the screen in the driver’s seat, injecting spiritual energy into the immortal boat.

This was the process to activate the immortal boat.

The immortal boat was also a kind of magical treasure, and the owner needed to activate it before using it. This was a process of having the treasure recognize its master.

The spiritual energy of the ❮Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Technique❯ continuously poured into the immortal boat, and the spiritual energy wandered through the body of the immortal boat.

After 10 breaths, the activation was over, and the process of having it recognize its master was completed.

“Now, it’s time to enter the immortal boat mode and deploy the shields.” Song Shuhang quickly operated the immortal boat.

The steering wheel of the minivan was converted into a control stick like those in small aircraft.

Song Shuhang smiled, and said, “The whole process is dumbed down a lot, but it’s very much suitable for newcomers like me.”

If he were to operate a standard immortal boat, he might not even be able to get it to fly. But with this kind of integrated driving and flying system, he was quickly able to get a hang of it.

“Boom~”

The four wheels of the minivan retracted, and it took on the form of a ‘shuttle’ as it rose into the sky according to Song Shuhang’s operation.

Song Shuhang asked, “Where do we go strolling?”

Doudou said, “Of course it would have to be in space. If you’re still flying in the atmosphere after buying an immortal boat, what’s the point? If you wanted to do that, then you should have just bought a plane.”

Song Shuhang responded, “That makes sense...”

After saying that, he operated the immortal boat to frantically rush to the sky with a kick of the accelerator.

The immortal boat got faster and faster, breaking past the speed of sound within 10 seconds and still accelerating.

Compared to flying with a sword, an immortal boat was more secure.

Moreover, after Song Shuhang found himself sitting in the immortal boat, his fear of heights seemed to disappear.

...Perhaps the thick shell of the immortal boat gave him a sense of security far beyond that of the guardrails.

Or perhaps there were other factors at play that were temporarily unclear.

Song Shuhang kept stepping on the accelerator to speed up the immortal boat.

This feeling of extreme speed gave him a kind of ‘stimulation’.

This was the first time that Profound Sage Tyrannical Song actually found pleasure in ‘speed’.

Perhaps my fear of high speeds has been cured, Song Shuhang thought.

How refreshing!

Man aims to conquer the blue sky and pursues exciting speeds!

“Beep, beep, beep, beep~”

At this time, the immortal boat let out a series of rapid cries.

Doudou suspiciously asked, “A siren? Were we overspeeding?”

Song Shuhang looked down at the interface...

[Alert: the immortal boat’s energy reserve has dropped low, please replenish energy.

Add spirit stones, charge the immortal boat, add jet fuel, or continue to input spiritual energy for the immortal boat to maintain its normal operations.]

Song Shuhang replied, “It’s not that we were speeding. The immortal boat is running out of energy.”

That’s right. After all, it’s a new car. It’s impossible for it to be filled up.

Doudou said, “Then quickly replenish its energy with spirit stones. Where do we replenish it?”

“There are several cells that can be found in the armrest of the driver’s seat,” Song Shuhang said. “I have a few spirit stones on me, they should be enough.”

He currently had over 30 Sixth Stage spirit stones.

He remembered getting these spirit stones back when he had sold the blood god pearls to Daoist Priest Horizon. Afterward, the spirit stones that Song Shuhang had only kept on increasing.

Doudou said, “Give them to me. I’ll place them in for you.”

Song Shuhang stretched out his hand and transferred all the spirit stones from his magical bracelet over to Doudou.

Doudou loaded all the spirit stones he got from Song Shuhang into the immortal boat.

The immortal boat’s energy quickly rose, and crossed the warning line again.

Doudou said, “I’ve put in all 30 Sixth Stage spirit stones, as well as some fragmented spirit stones.”

“...” Song Shuhang.

From today onward, please call him Song “Completely Broke” Shuhang.

After all the spirit stones were placed in, the immortal boat’s energy cell had only increased to one percent.

By estimation, the full battery capacity of this immortal boat was based on a Ninth Stage Spirit Stone.

Song Shuhang asked, “With more than 30 Sixth Stage spirit stones, how long can we move around?”

Doudou said, “If you were to drive normally, it should last for 10 years. An immortal boat doesn’t consume much energy. However, if you have to maintain the immortal boat’s shield after entering space, the energy consumption will increase.”

Song Shuhang felt relieved after hearing this.

Moreover, this immortal boat was a hybrid, and his own spiritual energy could be used to fuel it if he had spare energy. Currently, he had five cores, allowing him to have a quantity of spiritual energy equivalent to a Sixth Stage Spiritual Emperor. With this, he could maintain the operation of the immortal boat for a long time.

At this moment, Doudou said, “Shuhang, can we check out the mecha mode?”

Song Shuhang replied, “No problem, come over to the passenger seat.”

Doudou rolled and quickly climbed into the passenger seat.

Song Shuhang began to switch the mode.

The mecha form.

“Cling~” A pleasant noise came from the immortal boat.

On the screen at the driver’s seat, a demonstration of the transformation of the immortal boat appeared.

The original shuttle-shaped immortal boat split apart, and mechanical arms and legs stretched out. At the same time, there was a pair of wings that extended on its back.

In a short two moments, the immortal boat had switched to the mecha mode.

Song Shuhang thought to himself, I keep on feeling like I’ve experienced this somewhere else before.

Right, he remembered now.

During the hand-guided tractor competition, he had participated in Senior Phoenix Slayer’s place. The ‘hand-guided tractor’ remodeled by Senior Phoenix Slayer at the time had a transformation feature, which could turn it into a big wheel to crush others.

Unfortunately, this mode was later judged foul, and was prohibited from further use. Otherwise, Song Shuhang might have gotten into the top six in the ‘hand-guided tractor competition’.

After switching to the mecha mode, the operation interface of the immortal boat had also undergone some changes.

There were now several more functions.

For example, an attack mode... This mode required Song Shuhang himself to add an offensive magical treasure to the immortal boat, and it was only for display at the moment.

In addition, there was a ‘crazy escape’ mode.

“What is this mode?” Doudou’s little paw clicked on the crazy escape mode with a light tap.

In the next moment, the crazy escape mode was activated.

“F*ck, how did it get activated?” Doudou cried—he wasn’t the owner of the immortal boat, so why could he activate this function?

Song Shuhang calmly replied, “The crazy escape mode is an emergency measure. Because the owner of the immortal boat might fall unconscious, anyone inside the immortal boat can activate this function.”

This was what the manual said.

“What will happen after it’s activa— Woof!!” Doudou’s face hit the sidewall of the immortal boat.

The spiritual energy stored in the immortal boat burned frantically. The energy of the spirit stones was all consumed, and instantly transformed into a driving force to push the immortal boat forward.

The immortal boat in the form of mecha exploded in speed, leaping forward violently. It was as if rocket boosters had been added behind the immortal boat.

Song Shuhang said, “As you can see, after the activation of this mode, the immortal boat will lift all restrictions, and have its speed increased to the limit. Even if it falls apart, it will not hesitate to continue. In short, it’s the definition of ‘fast’! So fast that there’s no saving it.”

At this time, the speed of the immortal boat had already exceeded what his normal eye could bear.

Only the Sage’s eye that was in his left eye socket could catch the things that were passing by quickly.

“Woof... Can you brake?” Doudou’s body was clinging to the wall of the immortal boat. Because the immortal boat was speeding up so frantically, he was almost stuck to the wall.

Song Shuhang replied, “Once the crazy escape mode is activated, the brakes are disabled. Even the ‘shield’ is only maintained at its lowest limit. All energy is prioritized for speed.”

So to speak, this was truly a mode where speed was everything.

When looking for the ultimate speed, the brakes would just be a cumbersome thing, and would be discarded...

“Woof, did I get into trouble again?” Doudou felt a little trembling in his body. This speed was too fast, and he was a little uncomfortable. He felt nauseous and wanted to vomit.

And what worried him even more was that Song Shuhang had two problems, a fear of heights and a fear of high speeds.

Now that the speed of the immortal boat had exploded to this state, if Song Shuhang’s fear of high speeds broke out, would he still be able to drive the immortal boat smoothly?

He turned around tremblingly and looked at Song Shuhang. “Shuhang, are you okay? Woof... I feel like vomiting.”

Song Shuhang calmly said, “I’m fine.”

With the help of the powerful vision of the Sage’s eye, he calmly piloted the immortal boat... Now that he was still flying into space, he simply needed to immerse himself in rushing upward.

“...” Doudou.

I feel that something is wrong with you. At such a terrifying speed, shouldn’t you be screaming and feel like vomiting?

How can you be so calm?!

“Don’t worry, Doudou. We will be able to reach space safely.” Song Shuhang gave Doudou a gentle smile. “I feel it now, it’s very exciting!”

Doudou responded, “Huh?”

“This kind of extreme speed, my entire person seems to be integrated into it. My mind seems to have merged with the immortal boat. Every time the immortal boat breaks through another level of speed, I feel particularly refreshed.” Song Shuhang explained to Doudou how he was currently feeling.

Doudou responded, “Woof~ Blegh~”

He understood now: Song Shuhang’s mind had broken.

It had to be because his fear of high speeds had exploded with all its might, leaving Song Shuhang utterly frightened such that he broke down. After he broke down, he didn’t feel scared anymore.

It’s all my fault this time. Doudou leaned weakly against the wall of the immortal boat. He could feel that the speed of the immortal boat was still increasing, making him feel like he could not breathe.

Doudou felt that his dog life was in shambles.

Song Shuhang softly said, “Fairy Waiting for a Promise.”

The virtuous lamia appeared.

She stretched out her hand, gently picked Doudou up, and protected him in her arms.

Then, she looked at the scenery passing by outside the immortal boat.

After a pause, the virtuous lamia said, “Aaaaaah~”

After a four-tone Song Shuhang-style scream, Fairy @# ％× tilted her head and fell softly.

Fairy @#%×, who hadn’t played dead for a long time, finally found an opportunity to do so.

“...” Doudou.

It was unknown how long it took, but when Doudou was about to collapse, the immortal boat burst out of the atmosphere, and rushed straight toward the moon.

Song Shuhang looked down at the immortal boat’s control interface... its energy was almost completely consumed.

The [Crazy Escape Mode] was simply a money-burner. According to Doudou, that amount of energy should have been able to maintain the normal flight of the immortal boat for 10 years. However, it was all used up in such a short time, all for the sake of speed.

Because the method of activation was simple and crude, most of the spiritual energy was wasted.

However... the effect of the crazy escape mode was very good. Its speed had reached the pinnacle of the ‘Seventh Stage’, and might even be beyond that.

Looking at it from another angle, one could think of it as a ‘Peak Seventh Stage Escape Technique’.

If it was used to escape, it would have great results.

Consuming more than 30 Sixth Stage spirit stones in exchange for a ‘Peak Seventh Stage Escape Technique’ was not a loss.

The only problem was that for Song Shuhang, it was virtually useless.

The enemies he generally faced could instantly destroy him.

And when it came to these enemies... It was impossible for Song Shuhang to escape by relying on this technique. If he really wanted to escape, he would have to rely on the ‘Inner World’.

A Seventh Stage escape technique was completely meaningless to Song Shuhang’s enemies.

Therefore, this crazy escape mode was more of a money-burner mode for Song Shuhang.

In the future, when he had money or had too much energy in his body, he could burn money for some excitement.

Moreover, this mode was very detrimental to the immortal boat.

After using it once, the immortal boat would probably need repairs.

❄️❄️❄️

The immortal boat continued to rush in space, but its speed had already begun to drop.

Doudou weakly said, “Are we going to the moon?”

Song Shuhang replied, “I’m afraid we won’t make it there, the energy has almost been completely consumed.”

This kind of stimulation from ‘speed’ gave him an endlessly pleasant aftertaste.

Song Shuhang felt that he might fall in love with this kind of ‘crazy acceleration’.

It seemed that his ‘fear of high speeds’ had disappeared. Moreover, he had also awakened a desire for ‘speed’.

Next time, if he accidentally made a grave, death-seeking mistake and Senior White sent him to the sky with a disposable flying sword, he wouldn’t be afraid anymore!

This was an unexpected gain.

While Song Shuhang was thinking about this, the immortal boat continued to get slower and slower.

When the energy of the 30 plus Sixth Stage spirit stones had all been expended, the immortal boat’s ‘crazy escape mode’ ended. Finally, the immortal boat began to slow down, and various functions began to recover.

Under normal circumstances, after the ‘crazy escape mode’ ended, the immortal boat would take the initiative to find a place to park.

But at this time, Song Shuhang and Doudou were in space, and there wasn’t really any place to park.

After the immortal boat floated for a long time, it turned off and waited to return from the mecha form to the shuttle-shaped immortal boat form.

“It’s finally over.” Doudou stood in the passenger seat and shook his body—if it had lasted any longer, he suspected that he would begin suffering from a fear of high speeds.

Song Shuhang regretfully said, “Mm-hm, unfortunately, I don’t have any more spirit stones on me.”

He had wanted it to last for a while longer...

After all, it was the first time in his life that he felt excited because of high speeds, so he wanted to experience it a while longer.

“What do we do now?” Doudou looked at the outer space beyond the immortal boat.

“Don’t worry, my immortal boat is a hybrid. In addition to the spirit stones, I can instill my own spiritual energy into it to act as an energy source. I was particular about this point when I bought it.” Song Shuhang smiled lightly... it was the smile of a penniless man.

If he hadn’t been so poor, he wouldn’t have looked for this hybrid immortal boat.

Song Shuhang opened the armrest of the passenger seat again.

In addition to the cells where spirit stone could be placed, there was also a palm print on the side. This was the place where spiritual energy could be poured in for the immortal boat.

Song Shuhang stretched out his hand, pressed the palm print, and then circulated the ❮Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Technique❯. All the spiritual energy from his five golden cores was then poured into the palm print continuously.

If all the spiritual energy in his body was extracted, it would be equivalent to several Sixth Stage spirit stones.

Moreover, he also had a Sixth Stage ghost spirit.

At this time, Doudou curiously asked, “In addition to the spiritual energy of spirit stones and cultivators, can this immortal boat use other types of energy?”

Song Shuhang replied, “It is said that gas would work. Jet fuel and electricity should work as well.”

While talking, Song Shuhang suddenly thought of something.

He took out a mechanical core from his magical bracelet.

It was the ‘core reactor’ he got from within the blonde girl’s body.

There was a huge amount of energy in this thing, so much that it had even drawn out a heavenly tribulation for the mechanically modified girl at the time.

Song Shuhang suddenly became curious, and said, “Doudou, do you think this thing can be used like a spirit stone and installed into the immortal boat?”

If this thing could be installed into the immortal boat, it would be equivalent to giving the immortal boat an external golden core.

Even if he didn’t charge it, it should be able to slowly recover its own spiritual energy, right?

“What is this thing?” Doudou looked at the ‘core reactor’ in Song Shuhang’s hand, and said, “This thing isn’t a spirit stone. Although there’s powerful energy inside it, if you want to install it on the immortal boat, it should need another piece of equipment to guide its energy out.”

“A piece of equipment to guide its energy out?” Song Shuhang stretched out his hand again, and took out something from his magical bracelet.

It was the treasure that Fellow Daoist Profound Ice had gotten from that mysterious secret realm.

It was the thing that the Fifth Stage loose cultivator, who had been fleeing with Doudou as they were being chased down by Celestials, had insistently given to Song Shuahng.

The ‘energy refiner’.

It was the component of a certain Fifth Stage magical treasure, and it had the function to extract energy from various cores or ores.

After Song Shuhang thought about it, he took out the ‘pet-shaped manifestation core’ he got from Scholar Drunken Moone.

If these three things were installed on the immortal boat together, what would happen?
