Chapter 1674: Advance or Retreat?
Fang Yang asked back: "Do you think there will be an elixir of immortality in any treasure? If the treasure of the Holy Ancestor has not been damaged after experiencing the magma disaster, it means that it has more mysteries waiting for us to discover!
Although I have entered the Holy Ancestor Treasure before, it was only on the periphery and I did not enter the real treasure. I have no idea what is inside.
But if there is a bigger crisis and a more dangerous trap inside, what do you think the consequences will be? "
Jiang Huawen somewhat understood what Fang Yang meant: "Everyone knows that there is the Elixir of Elders here, and they will all gather here crazily, and then they will all be swallowed up by the mechanism of the Holy Ancestor Treasure!"
Fang Yang said in a heavy tone: "Yes, this is what I'm worried about! Even Elder Jiang can't control himself, how many others can control him?
Even if there are still, how many top players do you think there will be in the world by then? How difficult would it be if a mysterious force suddenly emerged and conquered or destroyed the world? "
Jiang Huawen has completely regarded Fang Yang as a being of the same level as himself, without the slightest hint of contempt:
"But almost all the powerful forces in the East and the West are here. Who will be the mastermind among them?"
Fang Yang said: "Since it aims to conquer or destroy the world, this mysterious force will definitely not expose itself easily. Otherwise, how can it carry out its plan?"
Jiang Huawen thought of a possibility: "Fang Yang, do you know the situation of that mysterious force? If so, you'd better tell me everything you know!"
Fang Yang replied: "I do know the existence of a super force. Although it is mainly active in the West, it is said to have its own foundation in the ancient martial arts world.
The most important thing is that the shadow of this mysterious force can be found in almost all recent conflicts between the East and the West.
It's just that there is no clear evidence yet to prove how closely they are related to the Holy Ancestor's treasure. "
Jiang Huawen said seriously: "Tell me, what is the name of that mysterious force!"
Fang Yang gently uttered four words: "Wings of Darkness!"
"Wings of Darkness?" Jiang Huawen read it softly, but found no relevant information. Just when I was about to ask a few more questions, I saw a signal for help rising on the hilltop in the west!
Fang Yang's expression changed: "Sure enough, there is a situation!"
Jiang Huawen also saw the distress signal: "I will personally take people up to have a look!"
Fang Yang stopped him: "Wait a minute, I suspect this may be a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain, wait and see."
Less than a minute later, a distress signal also went up in the east, followed by the south and north, everyone was calling for help!
Popu and Wuxie quickly rushed to Fang Yang and asked anxiously: "Sir, what should we do now? All the people we sent out have been attacked, and communication has been lost. I'm afraid..."
Fang Yang calmly gave orders one after another: "Immediately gather people to return here, and build fortifications on the spot with the entrance of the underground palace as the center to prepare for the attack."
"Okay, let's send the signal!"
Popu and Wuxie immediately sent out a signal flare, summoned the remaining personnel, and began to build fortifications using local materials around the camp.
Those who can be sent here are all elites from various forces, and their strength is beyond words. Let them cut stones and build fortifications, and the efficiency is not very high.
In less than an hour, a two-meter-wide and four-meter-high defense fortification has been completed! The bad news is that none of the people sent to search the mountain came back!
Before they even entered the underground palace where the Holy Ancestor's treasure was stored, a group of elites were demolished, which cast a shadow over everyone's hearts.
Except for those in the demonic path who have been trained in dangerous environments since childhood, almost all the people from other forces have solemn expressions on their faces, without even the slightest smile.
Fang Yang inspected everywhere and was quite satisfied with the fortifications. Gathered together with Jiang Huawen, Pop and Wuxie again: "Now everyone decides whether to advance or retreat!"
Pope said cryptically: "If we had not searched the mountains, we would not have lost so many manpower, and we would not be in the current passive situation."
Although the words were not stated clearly, it was obviously an expression of dissatisfaction with Fang Yang's previous decision to search the mountain. Before Fang Yang could say anything, Wuxie stopped and looked at Popper coldly:
"Who do you think you are? If something goes wrong, you blame it all on the adults? I can't stand it. Why don't you go on your own? No one is stopping you!"
Jiang Huawen also defended Fang Yang: "The decision to search the mountain is not wrong. Just imagine, if those disciples hadn't warned us, I'm afraid everyone would have been attacked!
When the time comes to rush into battle without any precautions, the casualties will probably be much greater than now. Although the situation is not good now, at least we still have room for maneuver. "
Popper felt a little regretful as he spoke out his words. Others had cut off people's hands without complaining. Why was he so talkative?
After hearing what Wuxie and Jiang Huawen said, Popper was afraid that Fang Yang would be angry, so he quickly explained: "Master Fang Yang, I am not blaming you, but I am speaking my mind. Please don't blame me."
Fang Yang said magnanimously: "Of course I know you don't really want to target me, but now that the Dark Parliament has just gone through a turmoil, it will be more difficult for you to explain when you go back."
Pop looked at Fang Yang gratefully: "Thank you, Mr. Fang Yang, for your understanding. I'm really under a lot of pressure."
Fang Yang comforted: "Don't get too angry. As long as we can gain something from this trip, the doubts about you will be much smaller. With gains, sacrifice is necessary."
Pope seemed a little unsure: "But now, we are completely passive. The person who attacked us must be someone from Rokumonmen.
Since they are alive, it means that the Holy Ancestor's treasure has not suffered any catastrophic losses. As a result, our next trip will be extremely dangerous! "
"How can a pie fall from the sky? Even if it does fall, it may not fall into your hands."
Fang Yang saw brother Lei Zhentian and his disciples starting to blow up the passage. He turned around and said to a few people:
"Everyone gives me an idea, advance or retreat. Everyone acts in unison, and we must not be scattered again this time."
Jiang Huawen looked behind him: "Fang Yang, since the opponent is coming so fiercely, why don't we temporarily avoid the attack and retreat outside the valley. Wouldn't it be better to continue after our strength is restored?"
Fang Yang said calmly: "It is easy to enter the valley but difficult to get out. I can be sure that the way back will be filled with murderous intent. In comparison, it will be relatively safer to continue moving forward."
Wuxie was the first to express his position: "I have no objection! There is nothing to be afraid of. Since we have reached the door of the treasure, there is no reason to go back!"
Fang Yang looked at Pop again: "What about you?"
Popper had a wry smile on his face: "Sir, if I said that I don't want to move forward, what would you think?"
Fang Yang was expressionless: "I won't think about anything. For the sake of our acquaintance, I will put incense on your grave next year."
What he said clearly means that if Pop really wants to return, he will be dead! Although it sounds unpleasant, Popper does not think this is alarmist:
"So, I have no choice! Whether it's life or death, there's only one way to go until it's dark!"
