Arrived Too Hastily

"Could you ask your friend to come over? I'm interested in his demon beast," Su Bai said, looking sideways at Chen Wu.

"Of course. For the deal, I can do one thing within my capabilities for him," Su Bai replied.

"This..."

"Alright, I'll contact my friend right away."

Chen Wu nodded immediately.

In his opinion, the Seven-Colored Treasure Infant was indeed precious, but if Su Bai could do something within his capabilities for his old friend, it would be absolutely worth it. And Chen Wu himself could benefit from a bit of favor.

At the Hundred Refinements Sect, Elder Wang Yue, who was in closed-door cultivation, received the message and quickly emerged from his seclusion, heading towards Tianyun City.

Like Chen Wu, Wang Yue was also at the Primordial Immortal First Level. Given that the Hundred Refinements Sect and Tianyun City were not far apart, he arrived in less than an hour.

By the time he reached Tianyun City, Chen Wu had already set up a grand feast.

"Come, Elder, let us toast you," Chen Wu said after a brief introduction, as he and Wang Yue raised their cups simultaneously.

"I'm not an elder. My name is Su Bai," Su Bai said with a childish voice.

"Su Elder."

Chen Wu and Wang Yue hastily corrected themselves.

"Let's get straight to the point," Su Bai said with some impatience, "I'm in a hurry. Just tell me, what are the conditions for handing over the Seven-Colored Treasure Infant to me?"

"Uh..."

Wang Yue glanced at Su Bai and put down his wine cup.

He had intended to engage in some pleasantries before discussing the matter with Su Bai, but seeing that Su Bai wasn't interested in small talk, he sorted out his thoughts and got straight to the point.

"If Elder wants the Seven-Colored Treasure Infant, it's not a problem, as long as Elder helps me with one thing," Wang Yue said.

"Speak."

Su Bai inquired.

"This is the situation," Wang Yue explained in detail, "My older brother accidentally activated an ancient array while searching for a secret realm in the Tian Mountains a thousand years ago."

"Over the years, in order to save him, I've tried various methods, all to no avail. However, I have discovered the key to breaking the array."

"Unlike other ordinary arrays that require finding the array core, the key to breaking this array lies in sheer force."

"So, I need Elder to help me rescue my brother."

With that, Wang Yue bowed slightly.

Su Bai's eyes flickered as he asked, "I don't know how much force is needed to break this array."

After some contemplation, Wang Yue replied, "A few years ago, I paid a price to invite three Primordial Immortal Third Level experts to break the array, but their combined attacks could only slightly shake it. Therefore, I personally speculate that truly breaking the array might require the strength of a Primordial Immortal at the Fifth to Tenth Level."

"But the specifics are uncertain."

Having said that, Wang Yue nervously looked at Su Bai.

Although he knew Su Bai was strong, he wasn't sure exactly how many levels of Primordial Immortal Su Bai had reached.

After all, even a single level difference between Primordial Immortals is vast.

So, requiring a Primordial Immortal ranging from the Fifth to Tenth Level, he wasn't sure if Su Bai had that strength.

However, he saw Su Bai had already walked out of the door and was calling to him, "What are you standing there for? Let's go!"

"Huh?"

"Where to?"

Wang Yue hadn't reacted yet.

"Isn't it to save your brother?" Su Bai asked.

Wang Yue was stunned, blinking at Su Bai, unable to hide his surprise, "Just like that, are we going?"

"Or else?"

Su Bai replied, waiting for him to say something.

Hearing this, Wang Yue's lips twitched.

He never expected that not only would Su Bai agree immediately, but he would also leave right away.

This was way too decisive and efficient.

He hadn't even prepared himself yet.

"This is, after all, a matter of breaking the array. Shouldn't we prepare a bit?" Wang Yue asked hesitantly, "Surely we need some auxiliary tools and choose a day when you're in a better condition?"

"No time for that."

Su Bai glanced at the sky and said, "We'll go early and come back early. I still have to get back to make dinner."

????

Make dinner?

Wang Yue was utterly confused.

But he didn't ask further, seeing Su Bai's growing impatience. With a resolute heart, he followed, "Alright, then according to Elder's wishes, let's go immediately."

Soon, Wang Yue led the way in front, and Chen Wu followed.

The trio flew toward their destination with their True Immortal level power. It only took them an hour to reach the Tian Mountains.

The Tian Mountains lived up to their name.

They were filled with peculiar, towering peaks that reached into the clouds, their endless summits giving off an oppressive aura.

It was unclear how this terrain was formed.

However, the entire Tian Mountains region was vast. Amidst the countless towering peaks and deep valleys, there were hidden dangers, but also enormous opportunities.

Therefore, throughout the ages in the martial world, many experts had come here to explore.

Quickly, the three arrived at the foot of a mountain.

Upon reaching this place, the sense of pressure intensified, and they could faintly feel the fluctuations of the array.

"Elder, my brother is imprisoned underneath this mountain. To break the array, we need to shatter this peak," Wang Yue said solemnly.

He had been here numerous times, but he had never been able to break the mountain.

"Based on my countless explorations, breaking this mountain requires a specific method. Judging from the shape of the peak, attacking from the back should alleviate considerable pressure."

As he spoke, Wang Yue led the way.

Meanwhile, he inwardly sighed.

Looking at the mountain, despite knowing that Su Bai was probably strong, he felt increasingly uncertain.

He just felt that this trip was too hasty, with no preparation whatsoever.

He shouldn't have agreed to come with Su Bai so rashly. If they had taken a month to prepare, the chances of success would have been much higher.

But the next moment.

A sudden explosion erupted from behind.

"Boom!"

He was startled and turned back to see Su Bai pointing a finger.

The entire mountain peak imploded!
