372: Chapter 371: 【Qinling Mountain Range】 372: Chapter 371: 【Qinling Mountain Range】 Around midnight, Ye Tianchen arrived at an open space near the town not far from the Zhang family courtyard, carrying the unconscious Dongfang ng.
A military helicopter was parked there.
To many people, this would seem inconceivable, but for Cang Lang, who could contact the highest authorities and Yang Yi at any ti, these were trivial matters.
Moreover, the top brass and Yang Yi both viewed Ye Tianchen favorably and deed his current actions highly beneficial for the country.
When Ye Tianchen arrived with Dongfang ng, Cang Lang was already waiting outside the helicopter, its rotors spinning rapidly.
Seeing Ye Tianchen actually carrying over Dongfang ng stupefied Cang Lang, who asked,
“What happened?”
“She’s gravely injured and on the brink of death.
She must be taken back to the Ancient Tomb Sect to cultivate the final layer of the Jade Maiden Heart Scripture.
I think you’re the most suitable person to handle this!” Ye Tianchen spoke as if he intended to pass Dongfang ng onto Cang Lang and be done with it.
Although Cang Lang tended to be serious and not much of a talker, he was no fool.
Seeing Ye Tianchen’s deanor, as if he couldn’t wait to hand over a peerless beauty, Cang Lang hastily dodged to one side, saying sternly,
“This task was entrusted to you by the top brass and Elder Yang, and you agreed to it.
One must be faithful to their commitnts, so I won’t be ddling!”
Frustrated to the extre, Ye Tianchen thought to himself, Cang Lang usually seed rather slow and easily fooled by him, so why had he suddenly beco so shrewd?
It seed that Dongfang ng was truly a big problem.
Just in these few days, he had entangled himself with two beautiful troubles, and he didn’t even know if Qing Chengyue would furiously pursue him.
Considering her abnormal strength, the thought alone made Ye Tianchen’s scalp tingle.
“Then don’t get in the way.
I’m boarding the helicopter.
Have the orders been given, everything is to follow my command!” Ye Tianchen said, glancing at Cang Lang before proceeding to the military helicopter with Dongfang ng in his arms.
“You lucky guy, I’m actually envious…” Unexpectedly, Cang Lang started to tease Ye Tianchen, probably having been corrupted by him!
“Luck with won?
How about you try enjoying it?” Ye Tianchen retorted irritably.
“No can do, your business is your own.
You must do your best.
I believe you’re a man of your word and will give it your all!” Cang Lang laughed heartily.
Ye Tianchen ignored Cang Lang, knowing that continuing the conversation would only lead to further ribbing.
He turned and entered the military helicopter, placing Dongfang ng in a seat and securing her with the safety belt.
He then pulled out the sheepskin from his pocket and examined it closely.
He confird that the location of the Ancient Tomb Sect should be in the middle of the Qinling Mountain Range, as the legendary Zhongnan Mountain was there.
Rumors suggested that the Ancient Tomb Sect and the Quanzhen Sect were very close, which likely was the truth.
“We’re heading to the middle of the Qinling Mountain Range.
Just find a suitable place to land!” Ye Tianchen instructed.
“Yes!”
The military helicopter took off.
Ye Tianchen looked at Dongfang ng who was still in a comatose state.
According to Zhang Yide, Dongfang ng had at most ten days to live.
Ye Tianchen wondered if he could find the entrance to the Ancient Tomb Sect within these ten days and successfully procure the Jade Maiden Heart Scripture’s Cultivation Technique.
Reaching the Qinling Mountain Range wasn’t difficult; it was just a phone call away to send a military helicopter.
However, finding the entrance to the Ancient Tomb Sect and gaining smooth entry to locate the Jade Maiden Heart Scripture’s Cultivation Technique was a completely different matter.
With Dongfang ng unconscious and unable to guide him, Ye Tianchen had to rely on himself.
Ye Tianchen lay down on the bench, yawned, and thought with a heavy heart, what was he doing?
He had actually taken Dongfang ng on a search for the Ancient Tomb Sect.
He was never one to pity and cherish won or play the role of a kind-hearted character.
Wasn’t this a bit too much?
In reality, Ye Tianchen only realized later that he had agreed to save Dongfang ng firstly because of his commitnt to the task given by the top authorities and Yang Yi, and secondly because he felt that the cold woman, Dongfang ng, was actually rather agreeable.
The most important reason was his imnse curiosity about the Ancient Martial Sects.
He also wanted to witness the power and the mysteries of the Internal Cultivation thods, a discipline said to rival the Shaolin Yijin Jing.
Back in the past, even during the apocalyptic tis on Earth, Ye Tianchen, who had beco a Divine-level Superpower Expert, had never encountered the profound Inner Strength Heart thods of the Ancient Martial Sects.
When Cultivators reached their peak realm, they all end up converging on the sa path.
There wouldn’t be distinctions between Superpower Users and Ancient Martial Sect Experts; all individuals would turn into Cultivators, empowering themselves with ferocious strength, transcending certain natural laws, calling the wind, summoning the rain, plucking the stars, and scooping up the moon.
Since the decision was made and given the current situation, Ye Tianchen decided to take this opportunity to make contact with the Ancient Martial Sect.
Soday he would have to seek the ancient lost Transmission Array, and this was as good a ti as any to get a better understanding.
He didn’t know how long he had slept, but when Ye Tianchen woke up, he found the military helicopter hadn’t landed yet and was rely hovering in the skies above, which puzzled him.
He walked to the cockpit and asked, “What’s the matter?”
“We can’t land.
I don’t know what’s below us, but so kind of energy is interfering with the radar!” the soldier piloting the helicopter said with a frown, clearly troubled.
Ye Tianchen thought for a mont.
There were several mysterious places in China that had remained enigmatic for thousands of years.
Even with today’s advanced technology, their secrets remained undiscovered.
It seed that even a military helicopter could face significant obstacles.
“When can we land?” Ye Tianchen asked.
“Probably by tomorrow morning, if we’re still over jungle and mountains like this, we can’t land.
We’ll have to look for another location!”
“Wait a minute, let study the map before deciding!”
Ye Tianchen took out the sheepskin map given to him by Zhang Yide and spread it out completely.
He saw that the map detailed the entire Qinling Mountain Range and was incredibly precise—probably even more so than modern maps.
After observing the surrounding mountainsides outside, Ye Tianchen gathered superpower energy into his eyes to see clearly.
He then checked the location marked on the map for the Ancient Tomb Sect.
If they waited until tomorrow as the soldier had suggested, and if it was unsuitable to land, they would have to find another place, wasting precious ti.
Besides, he would have to carry Dongfang ng back here, which ant an unnecessary detour.
“You keep hovering up there, and I’ll go down from here.
Then you can leave,” Ye Tianchen said after a brief inspection.
“Go down from here?
But it’s pitch black everywhere, and we don’t know the situation below.
Jumping down rashly could be fatal!”
“Don’t worry.
I have my ways.
Just keep it balanced,” Ye Tianchen said confidently.
Before long, Ye Tianchen had Dongfang ng on his back.
Jumping from a height of several thousand ters was not a big deal for soone nearly capable of Qi Manipulation Flight like Ye Tianchen, but with Dongfang ng on his back and not yet having reached the level of Qi Manipulation Flight since rebirthing on Earth, it was different.
In fact, feats such as walking on walls and flying through the air were recorded in many ancient Chinese texts.
However, after thousands of years of evolution, the Ancient Martial Sects had gone into hiding.
Most descendants pursued fa and fortune, lacked resilience and endurance, and had beco a group waiting for the inevitable life cycle, unable to cultivate the profound spells of the past.
Thus, these exceptional skills gradually beca lost.
Therefore, Ye Tianchen found a rope, securely tied Dongfang ng to his back, and walked to the helicopter cabin door.
He threw the door open, and a gust of wind blew in.
However, he stood firm at the cabin door.
He had activated the King-level superpower energy inside his body, which was extrely strong.
A re natural wind couldn’t affect him; even a tornado would be easy to handle.
“Hey, the parachute…”
Before the soldier piloting the helicopter could finish speaking, Ye Tianchen had already leapt down, disappearing into the darkness, leaving the soldier staring in shock, unsure how to react.
All he could think was that this was a disaster—if this man could talk so casually with Cang Lang, his rank must be high.
Had he really been so foolish as to jump to his death?
What was he to do now?
At this very mont, Ye Tianchen, with Dongfang ng on his back, had jumped from thousands of ters high.
In mid-air, his eyes emitted light, having already concentrated superpower energy upon them.
He clearly observed the situation below.
Indeed, there was a vast forest, and the mountain terrain was rugged; it was impossible for the military helicopter to land.
What made him feel strange was the calmness in the forest below; there was no sound of nocturnal animals, which was odd for a prival forest.
Such silence was too unusual.
The imnse downward force continued to bring Ye Tianchen and Dongfang ng closer to the earth.
Prepared for this, Ye Tianchen wouldn’t have secured Dongfang ng onto his back otherwise.
As they fell, he released his palms in the mont of great impact, mitigating the falling force by hitting the ground, and landed steadily on the surface.
