Chapter 1068: Chapter 1068: Asking for Help

Stepping out of the Four Seas Commerce Association, Wang Chen felt relieved all over.

He had previously owed a huge sum of Spirit Stones and had to gather them within three months. Although he was more than 90% sure he could do it, there was no guarantee that he would be able to fulfill his wish.

If he could not produce the Spirit Stones on time, not only would he fail to obtain the materials for the crafting of the Qijue Sword, but he would also lose the 30% down payment he had already made—a loss he could not afford any further.

But now he had not only settled the final payment with the Four Seas Commerce Association but also obtained forty-five thousand Middle Spirits, making Wang Chen, who had been financially drained, feel like he had been reborn.

It was only because he had never owed anyone before that he had felt such immense pressure this time.

He must never do this again!

Thank goodness the Fate Blessing was really reliable, otherwise, Wang Chen might have ended up penniless.

He didn’t head straight home but instead went to a nearby tavern, intending to buy some delicacies to share with Su Ziling.

However, as soon as he arrived at the tavern, a streak of light flew by in an instant.

It stopped right in front of Wang Chen.

It was a meticulously crafted Flying Sword!

Wang Chen’s gaze flashed as he immediately took the Flying Sword into his hand and removed the Talisman Message attached to it.

This Flying Sword Messaging was sent by Huangfu Yongchun, stating that there was an extremely urgent matter that required Wang Chen to immediately head to the latter’s home for discussion.

After reading it, Wang Chen set off for the Huangfu Family without delay.

The Qijue Club had a fixed meeting place in Luodu Immortal City; the fact that Huangfu Yongchun asked people to go to his home meant the situation must be very serious.

Upon arriving at the Huangfu Family, when Wang Chen saw the High-Order Golden Core True Person again, True Person Shen and another Golden Core cultivator had already arrived.

However, Huangfu Yongchun did not continue to wait and spoke solemnly, “Gentlemen, True Person Sun has just sent a request for help: he and his companions were ambushed by Loose Cultivators in Fulong Mountain and are trapped in the vicinity of Flying Horse Peak. They are outnumbered and in urgent need of assistance!”

True Person Sun was also a member of the Qijue Club, a mid-tier Golden Core, and Wang Chen remembered that he was an Alchemist.

The others looked at each other, then simultaneously nodded, “No problem!”

One of the important purposes of founding the Qijue Club by Huangfu Yongchun was to help each other out; in a situation like True Person Sun’s, without personal grudges and merely facing a disaster, there was no reason for everyone to stand idly by!

True Person Shen asked, “What is the background of the attackers?”

Huangfu Yongchun shook his head, “We’re not clear on that yet.”

The incident had happened so suddenly that it was good enough that True Person Sun was able to send out a request for help; he didn’t have time to clarify things.

But one thing was for sure, those attacking him were also Golden Core-level bandits; there wouldn’t be any Nascent Soul True Immortals.

What kind of status does a Nascent Soul True Immortal hold? Moreover, if a Nascent Soul attacked, True Person Sun wouldn’t have had the chance to call for help!

“The matter brooks no delay.”

Huangfu Yongchun stated, “True Person Sun may not be able to hold on for long, we must set off to rescue him immediately.”

While speaking, another True Person arrived.

With that, five out of seven members of the Qijue Club had gathered, not counting the trapped True Person Sun.

This was already quite good, and without waiting for the final True Person, Huangfu Yongchun immediately took out his own Flying Warship.

They sped towards the site of the incident at full speed.

According to the display on the Geomantic Chart, Flying Horse Peak was more than three thousand miles away from Luodu Immortal City. Although the Magical Treasure Flying Ship was extremely fast, it still couldn’t arrive in a moment’s notice.

This was because the flying ship didn’t travel in a straight line, but had to detour around the dangerous areas of the Fulong Mountain Range.

This greatly increased the distance traveled.

During the flight, Huangfu Yongchun reminded, “Everyone, the Qijue Sword Formation requires seven people to be cast. We are now two people short, so we can only resort to conventional methods to resolve this. Everyone must first ensure their own safety.”

The Qijue Sword Formation could match a Nascent Soul; it was incredibly powerful both offensively and defensively. With five people unable to form the formation, it meant an increase in danger.

Since nothing was known about the adversary’s situation at the moment, Huangfu Yongchun’s caution was very necessary.

After all, even though everyone was a member of the Qijue Club, there were no ties of life and death. Should danger arise, protecting oneself was definitely the top priority.

Everyone nodded silently, the atmosphere in the cabin was somewhat oppressive.

Half a two-hour period later, the Flying Warship arrived at the Flying Horse Peak region.

After disembarking, Huangfu Yongchun put away the Flying Warship, then made hand gestures to silently calculate for a while, pointing towards the right: “It’s in that direction!”

What he used was naturally the Heavenly Secret Technique; with True Person Sun’s call for help via a Message Talisman in hand, and entering the corresponding area, the chances of a successful divination were naturally very high.

A group of cultivators drew their swords, following behind Huangfu Yongchun.

Everyone gathered their mana to empower their spells, instantly completing the battle preparations.

Even without forming the sword formation, none of these Golden Core cultivators were weak in combat!

The group passed through a dense forest and immediately located their target.

At the foot of the mountain peak, three cultivators were encircled by over a dozen cultivators, who were relentlessly bombarding the former’s defensive circle with various magic artifacts and spells.

The three trapped cultivators had set up a small defensive formation; on the ground lay two others, who appeared to have completely lost their combat effectiveness.

The situation of these three was also very critical, as their protective barrier, under the enemy’s attacks, was violently fluctuating and could collapse at any moment!

One of them was True Person Sun.

True Person Sun was clearly fighting with all his might, hand gestures billowing his hair and beard, his face flushed red.

“Quick!”

One of the bandit cultivators attacking him shouted fiercely, “We don’t have much time!”

Stretching tens of thousands of miles, the Fulong Mountain Range harbored extremely rich resources, and for thousands of years, it has been the most important “treasure hunting spot” for the cultivators from the Immortal Cities built around the mountains. The number of people entering the mountain each day was countless.

But where there are people, there is the Martial World. And even in the wilderness, there are many loose cultivators.

These loose cultivators have both good and evil among them, as well as those who don’t distinguish between good and evil, living by robbing homes, and attacking the cultivators from Immortal Cities – such bandit cultivators have never ceased to exist.

In fact, some cultivators from the Immortal Cities, under the influence of interests, would also occasionally engage in bandit-like activities!

The bandit cultivators assaulting True Person Sun and the others all wore masks, their appearances all the same, coordinating with each other in a practiced and tacit manner, clearly not their first time doing such things.

And seeing such a scene, Huangfu Yongchun had nothing more to say, and immediately shouted a command: “Attack!”

As soon as his voice dropped, including Wang Chen, the four Golden Core cultivators accelerated forward, a number of Magical Treasure Flying Swords soared into the sky, each carrying different powers, slashing towards the gang of bandit cultivators!

“Enemy attack!”

One of the bandit cultivators immediately sensed the danger and let out a piercing warning cry.

The dynamics of the battle changed abruptly.

Wang Chen, controlling the Dragon Abyss Sword, noticed that there were a total of fourteen people, among them six were Golden Core cultivators, and the rest were all high-order Purple Mansion, with formidable strength.

And among these bandit cultivators, there were three high-order Golden Cores as the main force!
