Chapter 888: Chapter 887
Ye Tianchen never imagined, never wanted to believe, that his dream seemed to come true. It seemed as if his sixth sense was extremely powerful. During his time away from the Ancient Martial World, all his friends encountered trouble. Currently, he knows the Ancient Tomb Sect was destroyed, Dongfang Mengâs fate is unknown, Hu Gao is being hunted, and his grandfather, Hu Le, with a cultivation of Martial Saint Realm, was nailed to the cliff. What about Tian Boguang, and Tianshuangâer and the villagers in Desolate Stone Village?
Ye Tianchen really didnât dare to think about it any further. It seemed something really had happened. When he left the Ancient Martial World, a strong and evil force appeared, pursuing his friends and seeking his whereabouts, leading to these tragedies. Who was behind all this? Who possessed such mighty power? Ye Tianchen could only think of the Blood Killing Organization and the Nine Netherworld.
Just as Ye Tianchen was about to turn and leave the cliff, he suddenly felt a powerful force attacking directly at his head. Ye Tianchen frowned, thinking it was someone from the Blood Killing Organization or the Nine Netherworld. He immediately swung the "Vajra Divine Fist," blasting out a punch. Dongfang Meng was gravely injured, Hu Gaoâs life was unknown, and this already angered Ye Tianchen.
Bang!
Swish!
With a loud noise, Ye Tianchen unleashed the Divine Movement Skill to its limit, tearing space apart at once. At the same time, the Taie Sword had appeared in his right hand, and he instantly slashed out a violent Sword Qi, attacking the direction from which the attack came.
Clang!
It was the sound of a treasure clash. Ye Tianchenâs Taie Sword collided with an iron halberd. Ye Tianchen frowned, recognizing the iron halberd. It was the same one they saw in the Purple Bamboo Great Saintâs tomb. The iron halberd was extremely powerful, an unparalleled Martial Saint Treasure, and was acquired by He Chang. But now it appeared here, so He Chang...
"Itâs you? What are you doing here?" Ye Tianchen glanced at the person in front of him, who was indeed He Chang. He was somewhat surprised and puzzled as to why He Chang would appear here.
"Come with me!"
He Chang only said that one sentence before flying ahead. Ye Tianchen hesitated but didnât understand He Changâs intentions. Why was He Chang here, and why was he asking him to follow?
To be honest, back in the Purple Bamboo Great Saintâs tomb, even though the two men with the back knife and He Chang were not as despicable as Wuji Taoist and the Golden Elder, Ye Tianchen didnât have much interaction with them. He wasnât deeply acquainted, so he didnât know much about He Chang. However, he was sure that He Chang was a very lucky person. Acquiring the inheritance of the Purple Bamboo Great Saint and the iron halberd treasure already indicated his potential for great achievements.
After a moment of hesitation, Ye Tianchen still used the Divine Movement Skill to follow He Chang. Neither spoke along the way. It wasnât until they reached a cave entrance in a mountain range that He Chang stopped, turned around, and looked at Ye Tianchen, saying, "Go in and take a look!"
Ye Tianchen hesitated for a moment before entering the cave. Inside the cave, he saw someone; that person was Hu Gao. Hu Gao appeared to be in a semi-conscious state, his body losing essence energy everywhere, covered in wounds, especially with cracks on his Dantian. Streams of Origin essence were continuously being lost. At this rate, within five days, Hu Gaoâs spirit and form would perish, turning to dust.
A powerful Martial Arts True Power was injected into Hu Gaoâs body. Ye Tianchen didnât say much. He couldnât let his brother die nor watch his friend lose his life. He had to save Hu Gaoâs life. However, when Ye Tianchenâs Martial Arts True Power entered Hu Gaoâs body, it quickly leaked out from the cracks in his Dantian, unable to heal Hu Gao at all. His injuries were worsening bit by bit, unlikely to last long.
"Cough, cough..." Hu Gao coughed twice, spitting out mouthfuls of essence blood. Ye Tianchen didnât know what to do.
"Big brother, youâre back. I was really afraid I wouldnât see you again!" Hu Gao forced a smile and said.
"Donât talk; Iâll heal your wounds," Ye Tianchen said in a deep voice.
"No need, big brother, donât waste your Martial Arts True Power. The enemy is too strong. Iâm beyond saving. At least at my deathbed, I got to see my handsome big brother. Iâm satisfied!" Hu Gao chuckled and said.
"Donât say nonsense, kid. You wonât be in trouble," Ye Tianchen said, looking at Hu Gao.
"Haha, big brother, you canât even lie. Someone as honest as you canât deceive people. I wonât last five days; I can feel it myself. I only regret that I wasnât diligent enough in my cultivation, which led to this situation now!" Hu Gao said, somewhat pained.
"Who did this?" Ye Tianchen asked coldly.
"I donât know, I donât recognize them, I only know that they are very powerful, constantly asking about your whereabouts, Brother, you must be careful." Hu Gao said with concern.
"I understand, you take care and rest well, I will return within five days, by then you will definitely survive, believe me!" Ye Tianchen said seriously.
After speaking, Ye Tianchen walked out of the cave, and saw He Chang still standing outside, with his back to Ye Tianchen, carrying an iron halberd on his back, which was the Martial Saint Treasure obtained from the Purple Bamboo Great Saintâs tomb, with divine power flowing strong.
"Brother He, I want to know what happened?" Ye Tianchen thought for a moment and asked.
He Chang glanced at Ye Tianchen and said in a very calm tone, "Youâve stirred up quite a commotion, now a powerful faction is hunting you down, unable to find you, naturally they find those related to you. I discovered him inadvertently, and remembering our brief encounter, I saved him, knowing you would definitely come seeking a trail after returning, so I waited for you at the cliff!"
"You saved Hu Gaoâs life, Iâm very grateful. In the future, if thereâs anything you need from me, Ye Tianchen, just ask!" Ye Tianchen said immediately.
"Haha, youâre mistaken, do you think I saved Hu Gao out of ulterior motives? Not at all, it was just my whim, you donât need to thank me, now that youâre here, I can leave!" He Chang said with a chuckle.
Ye Tianchen thought for a moment. He didnât know much about He Chang, but since he saved Hu Gao, it shows he is not a bad person, at least not an enemy; otherwise, he wouldnât have saved Hu Gao. So Ye Tianchen said, "Brother He, please wait, I have one more request!"
"What is it?" He Chang asked.
"Help me take care of Hu Gao for five days, his life only has five days left, I will return within these five days, I want to save him!" Ye Tianchen said.
"Save him? Brother Ye, thereâs something Iâm not sure if I should say. Given Hu Gaoâs current condition, his dantian is damaged, even a great immortal couldnât save him unless thereâs a life-extending immortal elixir, but those are extremely precious. Not to mention thereâs none left on Earth, even if there were, they are beyond our reach." He Chang shook his head and said.
"I have my own way, I hope Brother He agrees." Ye Tianchen looked at He Chang and said.
He Chang paused, then smiled and said, "Alright, Iâll see what method you have to save Hu Gao. Iâm quite curious myself; Iâll guard Hu Gao for five days. If someone comes to attack him, Iâll give my all to resist. But if he cannot endure and dies, thereâs nothing more I can do."
"Thank you very much!"
After thanking, Ye Tianchen did not think further; he couldnât afford to. Turning to leave, Hu Gaoâs life hung by a thread, he only had five days. Within these five days, if he couldnât find a way to save Hu Gao, Hu Gao would lose his life. Ye Tianchen couldnât just watch his friend, his brother die because of him. This is something Ye Tianchen absolutely does not want to see; he must find something, find something that can save Hu Gaoâs life.
After leaving Hu Gaoâs cave, Ye Tianchen headed to a place: the Purple Bamboo Great Saintâs tomb. Although it was destroyed, and the entire Fire Head Hill was ruined, he still wanted to find a trace, hoping to find something that could save Hu Gaoâs life there.
Upon delving into the ruins, Ye Tianchen probed with his strong Divine Thought, seeking to sense the essence of that thing, but despite his efforts, he received nothing; not a single trace remained. That thing seemed to have developed a sense of spirituality, knowing how to flee, how to cut off the hunterâs pursuit.
Emerging from the tombâs ruins, Ye Tianchen stood high above for a long time, ultimately relying on instinctive judgment to proceed to the distance, searching with powerful Divine Thought all the way, hoping for that chance encounter; otherwise, he truly couldnât think of any method or item to save Hu Gaoâs life.
Three days and nights passed, Ye Tianchen hadnât rested even a moment, searching and exploring all the way, traversing most of the Song Mountain Ancient Martial World. His Divine Movement Skill was fast, yet his Divine Thought search was meticulous; still, he found no trace. Five days, Hu Gao had only five days to live, after which he would perish. Already three days have passed, only two days and nights remain; without finding the thing, Hu Gao would die, dying because of Ye Tianchen, this would become an eternal pain in his heart.
In the quiet of night, Ye Tianchen halted by a small stream, sitting on a modest stone, gazing at the stars above. Suddenly, he felt so powerless, not strong enough, must Hu Gao die because of him? He had already lost his grandfather, would even he lose his life? Ye Tianchen clenched his fist tightly, this was his most helpless moment! (To be continued.
