Cultivation: I Have Studied Abroad in the Modern World

Chapter 189: Chapter 89 Cooperation Chapter 189: Chapter 89 Cooperation Inside the secret realm of the Great Freedom Demon Sect.

Lin Yangtian, leading his remnant forces, returned in a state of disarray; his clothes were shredded by Heavenly Thunder, exposing patches of blackened and raw skin.

He turned back to look at his followers, feeling even more aggrieved.

Of the roughly forty disciples who had set out together, less than ten were able to return to the secret realm, and each of them was wounded.

Most of those who died were under his command.

Although the lives of Holy Sect disciples were not considered valuable, these subordinates of his were the result of many years of his guidance—regardless of their strength, they at least conformed to his preferences.

To have lost so many subordinates in such a short time, he couldn’t help feeling a pang in his heart.

Beside him, that Golden Core fellow sect member who was brimming with confidence before did not seem much better.

His mouth was stained with a smear of fresh blood—not his own, but from a Holy Sect Foundation Establishment disciple who dared to block his escape path at the entrance of the secret realm, and so he cleaved the disciple in half.

Even Lin Yangtian had to admit that it was precisely because this senior’s actions were so decisive that they were able to make all those impertinent Foundation Establishment disciples clear the way, allowing them to escape the overwhelming thunder.

“What should we do now?”

The two exchanged glances, both appearing somewhat dejected.

The Jiushan Sect’s audacity to block the entrance had caught them off guard.

What was even more crucial was that they couldn’t escape!

“These Jiushan Sect people…

are too cunning!” A fellow sect member next to them said through clenched teeth.

If it were just the Thunder Pool, despite their suppressed strength, they were not afraid of that group of Jiushan Sect disciples due to their numerical superiority.

But the entrance to the secret realm had restrictions to prevent external enemies.

This actually gave those fewer Jiushan Sect disciples the advantage of facing fewer enemies.

Without the Thunder Pool, a secret realm gate could not have stopped them.

Not even needing a Nascent Soul from their own sect to make a move, the two Golden Cores alone could have obliterated that group of enemies at most of Foundation Establishment…

But the combination of both had left them feeling totally helpless.

The two looked at each other but had no idea what to do at this moment.

“What’s happening?”

During their moment of helplessness, an elderly voice came from above.

The group looked up to see an elder with black and white mixed hair and a withered face floating above them, his expression grim and unsatisfied: “The sect has commanded you to attack Jiushan Sect, why have you not yet set forth?”
