Chapter 1275: Chapter 1275: Mount Obis (Three Updates)
Leaving the place where Yang Sen was located, Ye Haochuan didn’t dare to pause for even a moment, swiftly leading Genius and the others towards the location the tall cultivator had mentioned.
"The treasure vault is right where the Sect Master of the Xuanming Sect is located, so we must be extremely cautious in this operation!" Ye Haochuan reminded the others as they walked.
Upon hearing this, the others looked somewhat grim.
"That’s a place even Yang Sen couldn’t successfully break through. Can we, just a few small fry, really do it?" Guan Ling, who hadn’t spoken much, suddenly said.
Liu Sheng chimed in, "Since Yang Sen has already attempted it once, they’re surely going to bolster their defense. If we go now, it’s a death wish!"
Ye Haochuan suddenly laughed, "I think it might be just the opposite. If we’re thinking this, the other side is likely thinking the same. Since they’re sure people from Xuanmen won’t come again, isn’t it quite wasteful to further strengthen the defense here now?"
The group pondered for a while, thinking it might not be impossible. However, such matters can’t be fully known without seeing it firsthand, and Ye Haochuan’s plan was indeed risky.
However, Ye Haochuan also knew that the greater the risk, the greater the reward. Plus, he carried the mission of rescuing Yang Sen, so he had no choice but to proceed.
After flying for about an hour, Ye Haochuan estimated that they were getting close to the location of the Evil Sect base, and quickly instructed everyone to land and quietly make their way forward.
"Yue Deng, keep a lookout at the rear!"
"There’s a patrol on the left side; we’ll move after they pass!"
"There’s a Foundation Establishment Team ahead, Liu Sheng, Guan Ling, it’s up to you two; remember not to make too much noise!" Ye Haochuan continuously issued commands.
All along the way, Ye Haochuan and his group avoided any encounters when possible, trying their best not to attract attention. Only when absolutely unavoidable did they take action.
Thanks to Ye Haochuan’s Perspective Eyes keeping an eye on the big picture, everything went smoothly.
"About two hundred meters ahead is the Evil Sect’s base; everyone needs to be doubly cautious!" Ye Haochuan seemed to become exceptionally verbose, giving instructions once more.
Back at The Pentagon, because of a momentary lapse in judgment, he nearly led the entire team to annihilation. So now, he constantly reminded himself and his teammates to act cautiously.
He dared not hope for another Ye Xian to suddenly appear to rescue them here.
The nerves of the others were also tightly wound, and none of them had ever thought they’d one day be stealing something from right under the nose of the Sect Master of the Xuanming Sect.
"Huh? There’s actually hardly anyone in this base?" Just as everyone assumed a "heroic sacrifice" posture, Ye Haochuan suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
"What the...?" Langfan said with a frustrated face, "After all the effort we put in to get here, my heart nearly exploded and yet, there’s no one?"
What the hell, could it be that the Sect Master of Xuanming Sect is really this cowardly, moving out immediately after being attacked once by Yang Sen?
Ye Haochuan was also greatly puzzled. After carefully surveying again, he still discovered nothing.
Just when they were baffled and had no answers, they suddenly received a message from Long Xiaotian.
"The Evil Sect launched a sudden attack, heavily injuring Yang Sen and several Nascent Soul Late Stage experts. The defenses have retreated to the Holy See in the Holy City, you can meet them there!"
Ye Haochuan looked at the message and then at the empty base in front of him and seemed to have understood a bit.
It turns out the people of Evil Sect weren’t afraid of being beaten by Yang Sen, but rather the battlefield had shifted, causing the "command center" of the Sect Master of the Xuanming Sect to naturally relocate.
This defeat of Xuanmen was likely due to Yang Sen’s grave injury, allowing Evil Sect to take advantage.
The battlefield situation is ever-changing; a seemingly wise decision has the potential to lead to utter ruin.
Thankfully, Xuanmen hasn’t met complete ruin yet. Although they have retreated, they’ve stabilized the situation.
"What do we do now, continue to find the Evil Sect base?" Yue Deng asked in confusion.
Ye Haochuan frowned, pondering, then shook his head, "The situation is different now; going now is a death wish!"
Before, he dared to charge into the Evil Sect base because Yang Sen’s attack had made their alertness decline, and the main forces of the Evil Sect were tied up at the frontline.
Now, it’s different. With no more battles at the frontline, many people are sure to return to the base. With their current strength, encountering even a Nascent Soul Mid-Stage opponent could lead to their complete ruin.
"If we don’t go, what about Director Yang’s poison?" Feng Meiyi asked with a frown.
Ye Haochuan pondered for a long time, then called Long Xiaotian and said, "Help me find out if the White Court Origin Realm has Holy Land Snow Lotus?"
Long Xiaotian picked up on the seriousness in Ye Haochuan’s tone and didn’t ask further, directly calling people from the Holy See to inquire.
This time, the Holy See had finally gotten on the right track and quickly provided a response.
"Mount Obis?" Hearing the answer given by Long Xiaotian, Ye Haochuan’s expression suddenly brightened, "Great, mark the exact location on the map..."
He had originally thought that the White Court Origin Realm wouldn’t necessarily have such a thing. To his surprise, it did.
Holy Land Snow Lotus is a healing holy medicine that, combined with some auxiliary herbs, can neutralize all poisons. As long as we find the Holy Land Snow Lotus, even if it can’t completely cure Yang Sen’s Corpse Decay Poison, it can alleviate most of the poison’s effects.
Mount Obis is a few hundred kilometers away from here; Ye Haochuan and his group didn’t dare to delay and quickly used Rapid Formation to fly swiftly in that direction.
Along the way, they encountered some disciples of the Evil Sect, who were all eliminated one by one. This route didn’t go through the Evil Sect’s frontline, so there weren’t any Nascent Soul Realm cultivators. Soon, they arrived safely and soundly at the foot of a towering mountain.
Chirp~ Chirp~
Just as they landed, the Divine Concealment Sword seemed to sense something, letting out a cheerful hum.
"What’s going on? Could it be that the Sword Spirit sensed a male Sword Spirit and is going into heat?"
Ye Haochuan was puzzled, about to use his soul to communicate with the Sword Spirit, but the Sword Spirit seemed unable to wait any longer and directly left Ye Haochuan’s hand, shooting out.
What the heck, I know you’re lovestruck, but not to the point of being heartless in search of the opposite gender, right?
Ye Haochuan wore an expression of exasperation, worried about losing the Divine Concealment Sword, and quickly followed.
Almost circling half the base of Mount Obis, the Divine Concealment Sword suddenly darted into a small cave. This cave was less than a meter high, just barely large enough for a person to crawl through.
Damn it, now I have to crawl in like a dog? You lousy Sword Spirit, once I catch you, I’m definitely gonna teach you a lesson!
Ye Haochuan cursed inwardly but finally crawled inside. The others exchanged glances and followed closely behind.
Ye Haochuan didn’t even know how far he had crawled. After cursing several thousand times inwardly, a faint light finally appeared ahead in the pitch-black little tunnel.
