Longevity Begins with the Seven Injuries Fist-Chapter 150 - 113: Plotting for the Heart Scripture of Myriad Poisons! Assault on the Tang Sect!
"The leader of the Tang Sect must be handed over to me."
Su Que wanted to interrogate the leader of the Tang Sect to obtain more information about the sect.
After all, the Tang Sect’s headquarters was far away in the Central Plains.
And the Jiannan Prefecture base was just a small outpost of the Tang Sect’s Outer Sect.
It couldn’t possibly have the complete cultivation method of the Heart Scripture of Myriad Poisons.
If Su Que wanted to get more of the cultivation methods of the Heart Scripture of Myriad Poisons,
he had to obtain information from the mouth of the Tang Sect’s leader.
After listening, Li Xuanji’s chest heaved a few times, evidently very tempted.
The power of the Tang Sect’s hidden weapons was renowned in the world.
If he could obtain the forging diagrams of the Tang Sect’s hidden weapons and have them forged by blacksmiths,
then train several secret units equipped with the Tang Sect’s hidden weapons to use as exotic soldiers,
it would undoubtedly greatly enhance the combat strength of his Heaven-Breaking Army.
"Alright, when shall we act?"
Li Xuanji immediately agreed.
"Can you dispatch troops now?" Su Que asked.
He didn’t need to make any preparations at all, just seeing if the Heaven-Breaking Army was ready.
"Yes." Li Xuanji thought for a moment and said.
Thus, about half an hour later, the forces attacking the Tang Sect were assembled.
Li Xuanji himself also personally joined the battle, showing how much he valued this assault.
He put on a mask, donned light armor, and carried an ancient-sheathed treasure saber at his waist.
He also called on Elder Dan Yang and Qiu Yu, the second and third-ranked experts in the Heaven-Breaking Army.
Elder Dan Yang wore a gray robe, a mask, and a hood, concealing his face.
Qiu Yu wore black martial attire, a black veil, and her hair was wrapped in dark cloth, revealing only a pair of captivating eyes.
She also used a different style of flying sabers this time, strapped to her waist.
Besides them, there were about twenty martial arts experts of the Qi Blood Realm accompanying them.
Everyone put on masks and wore martial attire.
Li Xuanji feared that during the assault on the Tang Sect, they might be spotted by others, or that there might be survivors from the Tang Sect,
so he ordered everyone to wear masks.
So no one could discover that they were from the Heaven-Breaking Army.
If others found out that it was their Heaven-Breaking Army that destroyed the Tang Sect, even though they were in the Southern Domain, far from the Central Plains,
the Tang Sect from the Central Plains might send people to deal with them to maintain the sect’s prestige.
Once everyone was ready, Su Que led them towards the Tang Sect base.
The Tang Sect’s base at Black Cloud Mountain was more than fifty miles east of Jiannan Prefecture City.
Su Que had forced information from the mouth of the contact, "Profound Tiger."
The Tang Sect’s base was built within the mountain.
To enter the Tang Sect’s base, one had to first pass through a mountain passage filled with miasma.
This miasma could be deadly to ordinary people with just one breath.
For other martial artists, it could cause varying degrees of harm.
However, all Tang Sect assassins qualified to enter the Tang Sect’s base had cultivated the Heart Scripture of Myriad Poisons.
For them, this miasma was nothing.
Therefore, before setting out, Su Que had Li Xuanji and his team prepare antitoxic pills.
Li Xuanji quickly had the antitoxic pills brought, providing almost everyone with one.
With this in mind, Su Que and his group arrived at Black Cloud Mountain. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖
Black Cloud Mountain stretched for several miles, towering hundreds of feet high.
By now, it was late autumn, and the mountain’s forest was ablaze with color.
The Tang Sect’s base had three entrances, all located deep within the forest.
Su Que led the group, flying towards one of the mountain’s entrances.
Soon, they saw the cave entrance from a distance.
The cave entrance resembled a giant crevice.
It was just over a person’s height, but very wide, dark inside.
From Profound Tiger, Su Que learned that within the cave passage, at intervals, there was a group of disciples on guard.
There were three groups of disciples on guard, with two disciples in each group.
The first two groups of disciples guarded within the passage, while the last group guarded the entrance to the Tang Sect base.
Su Que planned to silently eliminate the first two groups of disciples to prevent them from raising the alarm, allowing the Tang Sect to prepare defenses.
The Tang Sect had the most hidden weapons; if a group of Tang Sect assassins with powerful weapons guarded the base entrance, waiting for them,
the difficulty of their intrusion would significantly increase.
As for the last group of disciples, because they guarded the entrance,
even if they made a sound, the assassin within the base wouldn’t have time to prepare.
"Wait for three breaths, then quietly go in."
Su Que said to Li Xuanji and the others behind him.
Then he performed his lightweight skill, heading towards the cave entrance.
In almost an instant, he slipped into the cave, merging into the darkness.
Once inside, Su Que first removed the cloak from his body.
Exposing his black martial attire and the Rakshasa mask on his face.
Because the cloak caused resistance, using his lightweight skill at full speed would make a loud flapping sound.
He neatly folded the cloak and placed it on one side of the cave.
Then he exerted force with his foot, his figure seemingly disappearing as he darted deeper into the cave.
The passage in the cave became increasingly narrow.
Originally it could accommodate dozens of people walking side by side, but gradually, it could only fit five people abreast.
At intervals on the top of the cave, a kind of red jade was embedded, emitting a faint red glow.
The passage was filled with a dim red light, creating an eerie atmosphere.
Su Que moved swiftly, plucking two thin needles from his waist.
These needles were sewing needles he bought at the market; because they were small, they wouldn’t make much noise even at high speed.
Soon, he saw two Tang Sect disciples guarding within the cave.
These two Tang Sect disciples were Three Blood Martial Artists, and having practiced with hidden weapons for many years, their eye power was good.
When Su Que flew by, they saw a blurry shape suddenly appear in the passage.
They were startled and just about to call out to alert the others.
Su Que flicked his fingers, and the needles in his hand shot out sharply.
Instantly, two fine points of cold light flickered in the air.
Subsequently, the bodies of the two Tang Sect disciples suddenly trembled, their eyes widened, pupils dilated, and they collapsed simultaneously.
Su Que rushed forward, catching them before they hit the ground with a sound.
He then gently laid them on the ground and swiftly searched their bodies.
In almost a moment, he found two purses.
Su Que tucked the purses into his bosom and continued flying forward.
Before long, he saw another group of disciples guarding from afar, and again used the flying needles to shoot them down, catching them before they fell.
After searching the bodies, Su Que stopped, waiting for Li Xuanji and the others.
After a while, Li Xuanji and his group arrived.
They knew that the cave passage echoed greatly, so they moved silently, with no one speaking.
Su Que slightly fell back, blending into Li Xuanji’s group, matching their lightweight skill speed, and continued flying forward with them along the passage.
He was unsure of the true strength of the people inside the Tang Sect’s base, so he naturally couldn’t lead the way, relying on Li Xuanji and his men to scout ahead.
This was one of his reasons for luring Li Xuanji to attack the Tang Sect.
As they turned a corner in the passage, about fifteen breaths later, they saw at the end of the passage a large room entrance.
The room was different from the gloomy passage, brightly lit, with walls and floors lined with fine redwood.
Seeing the room, the last group of disciples guarding the entrance naturally saw Su Que and his companions.
Realizing they had been noticed, Li Xuanji and the others did not suppress their footfalls but fully utilized their lightweight skill.
"Enemy attack!"
The two gatekeeping disciples shouted in unison.
Simultaneously, both of their hands moved to their waists, retrieving crossbow arrows.
With their left and right hands manipulating the crossbows, they fired rapidly at Li Xuanji and his men.
Li Xuanji immediately unsheathed the treasure saber from his waist.
The blade was sharp and shiny, its luster differing from the Profound Iron Saber he’d used that night only in its sheen; its length and weight were nearly the same.
As he advanced, he executed saber techniques, cutting through the crossbow arrows amidst the swath of sword qi.
Moving forward, with one slash, he decapitated the two Tang Sect disciples.
This commotion naturally caught the attention of the Tang Sect assassins inside the base.
But Li Xuanji and the others had already rushed forward, flooding into the Tang Sect base.
Su Que silently blended into their midst, eyes scanning for potential incoming experts.
