CHAPTER 1301: CHAPTER 1301: GREAT YAN STEP

Departing from the Holy City, Ye Haochuan and his two companions traveled cautiously.

Ye Haochuan missed Yue Deng deeply for the first time. If Yue Deng, a scouting expert, were here, he wouldn’t have to worry as much; Yue Deng could understand the situation within several kilometers with ease.

For now, Ye Haochuan could only keep his Perspective open all the time so that he could easily evade the Evil Sect’s searches.

As they stealthily advanced, Ye Haochuan’s phone suddenly rang. Upon checking, he saw it was Yang Sen sending him something.

"Is this... a cultivation technique?" Ye Haochuan suddenly felt a burst of joy.

Previously, Yang Sen promised Ye Haochuan a cultivation technique, but due to the urgency of events, everyone had forgotten about it. Unexpectedly, Yang Sen sent it to him now.

The ability to transmit items via phone is something ordinary people do not possess. However, Yang Sen was clearly an exception.

Ye Haochuan couldn’t wait to retrieve the Secret Manual from his phone, and soon, a radiant book appeared in Ye Haochuan’s hands.

"Great Yan Step, Treasure-Level Late Stage..."

"Holy shit, a Treasure-Level Late Stage movement technique! Is Yang Sen in love with me?" Just after seeing the first word, Ye Haochuan couldn’t sit still.

A Treasure-Level Late Stage technique is rare even at the Institute of Extensive Learning. He would never have expected Yang Sen to give him such a grand gift.

"Movement technique? Is Yang Sen aware of the danger this time and wants to give me a means to escape?" Ye Haochuan speculated inwardly.

But regardless of Yang Sen’s motives, this movement technique was exactly what he needed most. Mystifying Steps had been overused; he desperately needed a high-level movement technique. Yang Sen’s gift was indeed timely!

Ye Haochuan didn’t hesitate and began to read the manual seriously.

"Practicing cultivation techniques at this time, aren’t you afraid you’ll delay the journey?" Long Keyue said in a slightly annoyed tone.

Though she was a bit envious of this Treasure-Level Late Stage technique, coming from the Long Family, she was used to seeing such things and thus appeared calm.

What puzzled Ye Haochuan was that even someone like Ku Hai, who had no background, didn’t show excessive surprise.

Seems like my perspective is still too narrow!

Ye Haochuan smiled bitterly to himself, feeling like a country bumpkin in front of these two.

"Indeed, Brother Ye, a Treasure-Level Late Stage technique takes at least several days to study. Practicing it now is quite inappropriate!" Ku Hai also advised.

However, Ye Haochuan ignored them, quickly browsing through the technique before closing his eyes in deep thought.

"What are you doing? This task is so crucial, you..."

Long Keyue was about to get angry, but Ye Haochuan suddenly opened his eyes.

"Done!"

"What’s done?" Long Keyue was puzzled.

"The technique, of course, it’s done!" Ye Haochuan chuckled, then his feet blurred, and his figure flashed rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, Ye Haochuan had left a shadow in the sky.

"This..." Long Keyue was dumbfounded. She had never seen someone master a Treasure-Level technique after just one viewing.

This guy—is he a genius? A divine being?

She wasn’t the only one; Ku Hai also had a look of disbelief.

Having always prided himself as a genius, after witnessing Ye Haochuan’s skill, he felt unworthy even to carry Ye Haochuan’s shoes.

As the three were lost in their thoughts, an inappropriate voice suddenly cut through.

"￥%#%@" A string of gibberish, unmistakably in the language of Dongying.

"Oh no, we’ve been discovered by the Evil Sect!" Ye Haochuan’s heart tightened.

Throughout their journey, they had been cautiously moving on the ground to avoid detection by the Evil Sect.

But he had gotten too carried away, running into the sky, practically announcing their presence to the Evil Sect.

Sure enough, six unfriendly figures swiftly appeared in front of them.

"A Core Formation Stage six-member team?" Seeing who arrived, Ye Haochuan felt a slight relief.

Thankfully, it was only Core Formation Stage. If a Nascent Soul Stage had been attracted, it would’ve been troublesome.

As Ye Haochuan secretly rejoiced, the six of them quickly surrounded them.

Among these six, three were at Core Formation Peak, and the other three were Late Stage Core Formation. Upon seeing Ye Haochuan and his companions, their faces lit up with joy, clearly thinking they had caught some easy prey.

"You go left, I’ll go right, let’s see who’s faster!" Ye Haochuan suddenly smiled at Ku Hai.

"Just what I wanted!" Ku Hai replied with a calm smile and had already started moving.

"Look at how capable you two think you are; you’ve divided them without me!" Long Keyue said with mild annoyance.

Ye Haochuan chuckled, "You can time us!"

With that, Ye Haochuan had already chosen three opponents.

These three saw Ye Haochuan charging alone at them, looking at him as if he were a fool. But within seconds, their smiles vanished.

"Great Yan Step!"

Ye Haochuan used the newly acquired movement technique, his figure flashing interspersed among the three of them.

"Xuanwu Force Vein, activate!"

"Eight Extremes Palm!"

Slap~ Slap~ Slap~

The crisp sound echoed almost simultaneously.

The three Evil Sect cultists had just noticed Ye Haochuan vanish, and before they could react, they felt a gentle pat on their heart areas.

Before they could react further, a sharp pain shot through them. In the next second, their faces turned a dark liver color, eyes bulged wide, and they collapsed softly.

"Damn, are you cheating?" Ming Lang, witnessing this, couldn’t help but curse.

He had made his move before Ye Haochuan and had only managed to kill his second opponent with all his strength by now. Compared to Ye Haochuan’s methods, it was leagues apart.

Long Keyue pouted on the side, feeling immensely frustrated. She had tried to estimate Ye Haochuan’s capabilities as high as possible but was still stunned by his formidable skills.

"Just a trivial trick, haha!" Ye Haochuan laughed ’modestly’.

"Look at that smug face!" Ming Lang gave Ye Haochuan a sidelong glance before swinging his staff and easily smashed the last Evil Sect cultivator’s head like a rotten watermelon.

"Running into you two Killing Gods, they were truly unlucky!" Long Keyue said with pursed lips, "But it’s good in a way; they won’t have time to report back to the Evil Sect, so we should be safe for now!"

Ye Haochuan nodded, collected the rings from the Evil Sect cultivators, and then set a huge fire to turn the six bodies into ashes.

"Eh? Why is the phone out of signal?" Long Keyue suddenly exclaimed.

"Could it be your phone is broken?" Ye Haochuan casually joked, pulling out his own phone, only to find it also had no signal.

"Seems like there might be an issue with the base stations!" Ming Lang said with a serious expression.

To ensure smooth communication, there must be base station support. In the White Court Origin Realm, the base station was within the Holy City. Clearly, this was the work of a traitor.

"Looks like we really have to fight our way out; they even took down the base stations!" Ye Haochuan’s expression turned grave as he said, "We need to speed up or it might be too late!"

Ku Hai and Long Keyue both nodded in agreement and quickened their pace.

The trio was concerned about the desperate battle against the Evil Sect but didn’t realize that the communication breakdown had completely cut off their retreat path.
