Tactical Withdrawal (Seeking Monthly Tickets) _2 Chapter 672: 288: Cunning and Sly Ironclad Corpse!
Tactical Withdrawal (Seeking Monthly Tickets) _2 If I were to directly intervene, the old turtle from Longevity Sect might settle the score after autumn.
However, it concerns the fourth-level Spirit Vein, and it was not wrong for Yan Nan to swiftly decide on this matter, but I should not have been expected to make a move myself…”
Upon reaching this conclusion, Lou Zhen made a resolution in his heart and slowly said to the black-robed middle-aged man standing before him.
“Yan Nan, the cultivator from the Longevity Sect now possesses the authentication, how do you plan to occupy this fourth-level Spirit Vein?”
Yan Nan was taken aback, but immediately realized that the old ancestor would not be making a move himself.
His expression became troubled.
He had thought that upon hearing of the fourth-level Spirit Vein, the old ancestor would inevitably take action himself, settling the matter with a strong blow.
...
But now that the old ancestor has decided not to make a move, for the Iron Armor Sect to secure that Spirit Vein with certainty, the five great Golden Core cultivators must make an all-out effort.
However, he naturally did not dare to voice his complaints or request for the old ancestor to make a move directly.
He could only state his concerns and plans, concluding with,
“Old Ancestor, according to Elder Wang’s words, as long as we can destroy the proof in the Longevity Daoist’s possession along with the Audio-Visual Bead.
The Longevity Sect will then be unable to prove that they were the first ones to discover this fourth-level Spirit Vein Paradise.
And if there’s any dispute over this land, we can directly question the Four Seas Cultivation Alliance.
Ultimately, this place is highly likely to belong to our Iron Armor Sect, and even if the elders of the Longevity Sect return, they would have no way to retaliate against us.
However, that Longevity Daoist, after all, is a Daoist, and I’m afraid……”
Lou Zhen let out a light laugh and shook his head, “Yan Nan, you are overly worried.
I have also dealt with cultivators from the Longevity Sect in the past.
Although they live long, they are notoriously weak in combat.

Daoists are certainly stronger, but their strength is also limited…”
Upon hearing these words, Yan Nan sighed internally.
He had heard this news as well, but considering the matter involves a fourth-level Spirit Vein, and there’s a Nascent Soul old ancestor from the Longevity Sect who has not yet retired, he may appear at the Spirit Vein Land at any time.
For safety’s sake, it would naturally be best for the sect’s old ancestor to take action himself, to cut through the knot decisively.
However, it seems clear now, the old ancestor does not intend to intervene personally.
“Brother Shentu and the others have been gone for half a day, so you and Peng Zhongkui should go as well.
The five of you together will not face any difficulties, and I will oversee the battle from a distance with my Divine Sense!”
These words from Lou Zhen echoed, firm yet non-debatable.
Yan Nan was helpless and even felt a bit regretful.
Having cultivated to his level, he was no longer a novice.
While a fourth-level Spirit Vein is extremely enticing, if it required him to risk his life in a desperate fight, and possibly bump into the Nascent Soul from Longevity Sect, this would make one reconsider.
However, now that the old ancestor has been awakened and has been informed of the situation, the only option left is to strive to carry out the mission to completion.
…
At the same time,
Over the strait near the Dissolving Cave Paradise, three figures releasing faint Spiritual Might were hovering in mid-air.
They were disturbing the surrounding air, causing it to slightly distort, and the auroras to dance around wildly.
They were spreading their Divine Senses out like a net, meticulously searching every corner of this strait, and their expressions were filled with curiosity.
“Where did those three big guys go?”
“They disappeared.
Did they run away when they saw us?
Truly worthy of being cultivators from the Longevity Sect, infamous for their combat incompetence, running away before the fight even started.”
While searching with their Divine Sense, the three Iron Armor Sect cultivators, who were initially on high alert, casually conversed with one another, but remained watchful at all times.
Even if they seemed to hold their opponents in contempt, they were, after all, co-competitors at the same level and could not let their guard down.
…
Meanwhile, in the forest next to the rock wall beneath the strait, the Heavenly Immortal Incarnation of Chen Dengming was hiding within a tree, using the Wood Escape Skill and secretly observing the three figures with Spiritual Might hovering above.
“Two early-stage Golden Cores and one late-stage Golden Core…It’s quite tricky.
I might be able to solve the situation with the Soul Fetching Bow, but I currently have two incarnations…”
On the other side, under the rocky crevices of the water, Qiao Zhaoxian was hiding within, using the Earth Escape Skill, and his expression was similarly serious and faced with difficulty.
“If Old Chen’s real self were here, then there would be a chance of winning against these three guys,
But now, there are only two useless pieces of green and red hair, plus a stupid dog, how do we fight this?”
Hiding like this wasn’t his style, it felt oppressive,
But the Divine Sense of the Nascent Soul that had just passed by was not a joke.
The situation is indeed severe at the moment, and time needs to be delayed as much as possible.
The longer the delay, the more advantageous it is for them, ensuring their safety after the start of the fight.
However, right now, with three Golden Cores beginning their Divine Sense search, they won’t be able to maintain their hidden state for much longer and will soon be discovered.
“Old Qiao, I will try to distract them later and delay for more time,
If the ones left behind aren’t diverted, it’s up to you.
If the remaining one is the late-stage Golden Core cultivator, try to lead them south to join up with my real self.”
At this time, the Divine Sense voice message from Chen Dengming came, resonating in the depths of Qiao Zhaoxian’s spirit.
Before Qiao Zhaoxian could respond, the Divine Sense of one of the Iron Armor Sect’s Golden Core cultivators had already swept to one of Cheng Dengming’s hiding places.
With a whoosh,
Chen Dengming’s Heavenly Immortal Incarnation instantly came out of the state of the Wood Escape Skill, flew out from the branches, and turned into a beam of light, speeding towards the distance.
“Found it!”
An Iron Armor Sect Golden Core cultivator with high cheekbones rejoiced, and immediately followed in pursuit instinctively.
In the moment of flight, he turned around and looked at the blueish-purple late-stage Golden Core cultivator in the middle.
“Brother Shentu!?”
“Go.”
The late-stage Golden Core cultivator with a greenish-purple complexion flashed his eyes.
He was somewhat puzzled; this enemy who suddenly appeared seemed weak, like a False Core instead of a Daoist.
