Sect Master’s Immortal Journey

Chapter 219: Pursuit Underwater

In the hands of the three Twin Success Valley elders were numerous Second Rank symbols. They surrounded the Earth Drilling Shuttle, not letting it escape. Then various attack symbols were thrown at the Earth Drilling Shuttle as if they were free, relentlessly pounding it.

Although the Earth Drilling Shuttle had decent defensive power, it couldn't withstand such continuous attacks. After a while, the defensive barrier outside the Earth Drilling Shuttle was blown apart, and the shuttle itself bore numerous scars.

The Earth Drilling Shuttle was a precious item that Zhao Jiudou borrowed with great difficulty, gaining face from his master. If it were destroyed here or suffered heavy damage, Zhao Jiudou's position within Flying Swan Sect would be compromised.

Zhao Jiudou emerged from the Earth Drilling Shuttle and immediately confronted three Foundation Building stage enemies. After Dan Yihu and the others were exposed, they showed their resolve to fight desperately.

The three of them joined forces, inflicting heavy losses on Zhao Jiudou. In no time, Zhao Jiudou was severely wounded and spitting blood, on the verge of collapse.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Guang Hong Daoist arrived with a group of Foundation Building stage cultivators just in time to save the day. Aunt Jin, Ruan Dadao, Lin Shenpo, and Shi Weida charged straight at the three Twin Success Valley elders.

After being rescued, Zhao Jiudou was unable to continue fighting and found a place to recuperate. Guang Hong Daoist was pleased with Zhao Jiudou's outcome. Seeing the three Twin Success Valley elders going all out, he immediately understood their intentions.

"They want to keep us occupied and let the others escape, wishful thinking indeed," Guang Hong Daoist said to Meng Zhang as they rushed forward.

The two of them entered the Twin Success Valley's secret base, which was already deserted. They didn't have time to inspect the place and followed the path of their opponents, eventually tracking them to an underground river.

Endless Sea of Sand was a place covered in desert, and rivers were scarce, making it practically impossible to use water-escape techniques. Meng Zhang's Foundation Building stage cultivation time was short, and he hadn't spent much time practicing seemingly useless water-escape techniques.

However, Guang Hong Daoist, being a Foundation Building stage cultivator for many years, had not only practiced water-escape techniques but also carried various symbols to deal with different situations.

Seeing Meng Zhang's situation, Guang Hong Daoist knew he wouldn't use water-escape. He threw a few water-escape symbols to Meng Zhang before taking the lead.

Meng Zhang secretly admired Guang Hong Daoist's seemingly ordinary demeanor but crafty and thorough approach. In the future, he should learn from him.

Meng Zhang used the water-escape symbols and tightly pursued Guang Hong Daoist. Though Guang Hong Daoist's water-escape skills were only average, they were more than enough to chase down a group of Refining Qi stage cultivators.

Guang Hong Daoist quickly caught up with the slowest few cultivators and assassinated them from behind while they were preoccupied with escaping.

After killing them, Guang Hong Daoist didn't waste any time and continued to chase forward. Soon, he caught up with a few other cultivators.

These cultivators were brave and knew that escaping was futile, so they stopped and fought desperately, buying time for their fellow disciples ahead.

Although their own cultivation bases were not worth mentioning, they possessed various life-saving gadgets, such as the Yin Thunder refined by the Foundation Building stage elders and the Second Rank puppets bestowed by their seniors.

Their desperate attacks but lack of defense brought considerable trouble to Guang Hong Daoist. When the two sides were battling, Meng Zhang had already used the strength of the water-escape symbols to catch up to them.

Meng Zhang wasted no time and immediately sacrificed his flying swords, Scarlet Flame, and Venomous Fang, joining the battle.

Refining Qi stage cultivators were still Refining Qi stage cultivators. Even with the help of the items bestowed by their elders, their resistance against two powerful Foundation Building stage cultivators was limited.

After dealing with the current opponents, Guang Hong Daoist and Meng Zhang didn't stay and continued to chase forward.

During the pursuit and battles, the more than 20 Refining Qi stage cultivators from Twin Success Valley finally couldn't escape the clutches of the enemy and were killed one by one by the two Foundation Building stage cultivators.

Of course, Meng Zhang and Guang Hong Daoist didn't come out unscathed. Two of the Refining Qi stage cultivators carried Thunder Seed, a powerful killing weapon.

Thunder Seed required at least a Foundation Building late stage cultivator to risk their life by venturing into the upper cloud layer, collecting heavenly thunder aura, and spending a lot of time refining it.

Even Refining Qi stage cultivators could use Thunder Seed, and once it erupted, it posed a great danger to even Foundation Building initial stage cultivators.

Guang Hong Daoist and Meng Zhang never underestimated this group of enemies. Though they were Refining Qi stage cultivators, they were able to hide within Twin Success Valley and were seen as the hope of preserving the sect's inheritance. Besides their individual strengths, they must also possess life-preserving items bestowed by their elders.

However, the might of Thunder Seed was somewhat unexpected for them.

When Thunder Seed exploded, Guang Hong Daoist had to protect himself by discarding a defensive magic tool. Meng Zhang's Scarlet Flame flying sword was heavily damaged by Thunder Seed, and he was also seriously injured.

Meng Zhang, still nursing his injuries, and Guang Hong Daoist continued to act together until they were sure that all the escaping enemies had been eliminated. Only then did they start to return.

They seized a large number of storage bags from the Refining Qi stage cultivators.

Meng Zhang didn't compete with Guang Hong Daoist and even deliberately let him collect most of the storage bags, making a big profit for himself.

When Meng Zhang and Guang Hong Daoist returned to the Twin Success Valley's secret base, the battles between several Foundation Building stage cultivators had already ended.

Two Twin Success Valley Foundation Building stage elders had died in battle on the spot, leaving only Dan Yihu wounded and fleeing.

Dan Yihu also possessed Thunder Seed, which was refined by the gate's fake pill cultivator, Xiao Fengyan. Once activated, it unleashed tremendous power.

Unexpectedly, Shi Weiming was heavily injured, almost losing his life. The usually cautious Aunt Jin also had a stroke of bad luck, almost being killed by a Foundation Building initial stage cultivator. Although she escaped, she also suffered significant injuries.

Lin Shenpo exchanged injuries with the enemy. After killing the enemy, he was also greatly injured.

Only the old Ruan Dadao was extremely slippery. After a life-and-death battle, he only suffered minor injuries.

However, his slippery and evasive behavior, not putting himself at risk, aroused dissatisfaction among several companions.

Qiaoshou Sect and Golden Blade Sect had been allies for many years, and Aunt Jin couldn't help feeling dissatisfied with Ruan Dadao's attitude.
