Chapter 650 - 750: Nine Palaces, Eighteen Turns
Moreover, if even Ye Tianfan cannot stop them, there's no point in me going over.
Watching from afar, Bai Feng suddenly fell into memories. He recalled the first time he went out with Ye Tianfan; back then, Ye Tianfan couldn't even fly properly, and in just a short two or three years, Ye Tianfan's flying speed had become unreachable for him.
Perhaps some people are truly heaven's favored children, genuine geniuses. Born predestined to cultivate immortality. And people like them, no matter how hard they work, can't keep up with geniuses like Ye Tianfan.
But now is not the time to feel disheartened. His sect is still enduring hardships, so how could he be dispirited? Absolutely not. The most urgent task now is to hurry to Taichu Peak and find out what exactly is happening.
Bai Feng shook his head vigorously, throwing all such thoughts out of his mind. What he needed to do next was to rush to Taichu Peak with all his might and join his fellow disciples to drive out the invading enemies.
Moreover, Bai Feng had some vague idea of who the invading enemies were; it was probably the organization they've been on guard against. Previously, it was this organization that annihilated the entire Celestial Fragrance Sect, and now it was Taichu Sect's turn. Bai Feng was curious why they attacked the number-one sect in the immortal cultivation world, Taichu Sect, instead of other sects.
It takes some degree of audacity to do something like this. Celestial Fragrance Sect and Taichu Sect are not on the same level, after all.
If Taichu Sect wanted to attack sects across the world, even if the other three of the righteous four major sects joined together, they wouldn't be a match for Taichu Sect. So Bai Feng wondered if the leader of this organization had lost his mind, thinking of targeting Taichu Sect right after exterminating Celestial Fragrance Sect.
Was it that the people of that organization became overconfident, or has the sect leader of Taichu Sect become powerless?
Meanwhile, on Ye Tianfan's side, he rushed to Taichu Peak at great speed, barely spending any time on the journey. When Ye Tianfan arrived above Taichu Peak, he discovered the entire peak was wrapped in a thick Nine-Colored Glazed Wall.
This Nine-Colored Glazed Wall was incredibly thick, making it impossible for Ye Tianfan to see the situation inside clearly.
But judging from the blurry figures, Taichu Peak didn't seem to have suffered any major problems. On the side near the mountain gate, there was a dark mass, which should be the invading enemies.
Seeing this, Ye Tianfan breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the situation wasn't too severe. Although he couldn't go inside, he could defend against the enemies attacking the array from outside.
Thinking this, Ye Tianfan locked his eyes on the few people attacking the Nine-Colored Glazed Wall at the mountain gate.
The spiritual qi fluctuations from those people were not significant at all, giving Ye Tianfan the impression that they were just cannon fodder, so he felt confident in cutting them down with his sword.
With that thought, Ye Tianfan directly charged downward, summoning the Xiaoyao Sword during his descent and embedding three techniques into it, then fiercely slashed at those people.
Ye Tianfan had thought those people would dodge, but to his utter surprise, his single slash cut them in half.
After the slash, Ye Tianfan sensed something was off; the sensation and feel were nothing like striking flesh.
Instead, it felt like cutting through clumps of cotton.
There was absolutely no resistance. This left Ye Tianfan feeling deeply uneasy because those people's faces didn't show any signs of pain. Moreover, as their upper bodies fell, they even smiled at Ye Tianfan, looking not as if Ye Tianfan had cut them, but rather as if they had cut Ye Tianfan.
Ye Tianfan swiftly retreated after the slash, but it was already too late because a gash had been opened in front of him.
Furthermore, blood was gushing out of the wound in front of Ye Tianfan, seemingly with no intention of stopping. Clutching his wound tightly, Ye Tianfan watched as these severed bodies slowly disappeared.
"Come out, I've already sensed where you are!" After those enemies' bodies vanished, Ye Tianfan looked at the ground and spoke.
Whenever Ye Tianfan enters a battle, he always extends his Divine Sense to quickly detect where his enemies are. This time, his Divine Sense played a crucial role, as Ye Tianfan directly sensed those figures appearing underground, each holding a weapon ready to ambush him.
What intrigued Ye Tianfan was that the previous situation was not an illusion technique; Ye Tianfan felt those people were real. Yet it was peculiar that they seemed real, but after being cut, they quickly appeared underground, leaving Ye Tianfan puzzled and curious about what they really were.
However, they didn't seem inclined to explain themselves, so Ye Tianfan thrust his Xiaoyao Sword into the ground.
Ye Tianfan infused the Xiaoyao Sword with three techniques, letting them shoot out from the sword's tip.
As the three techniques shot out from the Xiaoyao Sword, they vaporized one enemy, but then Ye Tianfan saw that enemy's figure reappear not far away, charging at him.
Ye Tianfan discovered something important: these people had no signs of life, as if all of them were dead, yet he could feel life essence on them.
If this life essence didn't come from some small animals they carried, then? These people's existence was paradoxical and illogical, yet they stood before Ye Tianfan, leaving him scrambling to recall everything he knew, trying to figure out what this phenomenon was.
Despite pondering for a long time, Ye Tianfan couldn't think of any creature resembling these figures before him. Could these people be the successful experiments of that organization?
If so, it would be truly frightening. Although their strength wasn't very powerful, they all had a peculiarity: they were unkillable. Ye Tianfan had felled them two or three times, yet none of them died, even seeming to appear nearby the instant they died.
In this case, these opponents would be exceedingly troublesome because they didn't fear death. Even if you killed them, they would immediately reappear beside you and continue to fight, even if you obliterated them to the point where not a single cell remained.
