Sect Master's Immortal Journey

Chapter 418: Mutually Made Plans

When Meng Zhang, and his companions snatched the Spirit Essence and began to break through the ground, Ye Feifan had already sensed it. Their escape stirred up countless sand monsters, making it impossible to hide. Even the sand monsters that were originally pursuing Ye Feifan diverted their course to chase after Meng Zhang and the others.

Ye Feifan swiftly freed himself from the sand monster he was fighting and flew towards Meng Zhang's group. They had just emerged from the ground when a horde of sand monsters chased closely behind them. Urgently, they flew towards a distant location, with the sand monsters relentlessly pursuing them.

After a short while, Ye Feifan also emerged from the ground and witnessed the commotion from a distance, silently following them. Ironically, despite their cooperation in seizing the Spirit Essence, Ye Feifan had never known Meng Zhang's name or origin. Nevertheless, such details were inconsequential now as, in Ye Feifan's eyes, Meng Zhang was as good as a dead man.

According to their agreement, whoever obtained the Spirit Essence would proceed to divide it. Whether intentionally or not, both scheming individuals deliberately avoided discussing the specifics of the division.

"Ye Feifan, your tactics are too despicable. I won't allow you the opportunity to use the Spirit Essence to break through the Gold Core stage and cause trouble in the future," Meng Zhang said firmly.

While speaking, Meng Zhang took out some dust from the Spirit Essence that he had collected while underground and tossed it casually toward Ye Feifan as a symbolic gesture of sharing.

Ye Feifan's smile remained unchanged. He had already anticipated Meng Zhang's actions. These so-called righteous cultivators always put on a facade of righteousness but couldn't conceal their greedy hearts.

In Ye Feifan's plans, he never expected Meng Zhang and his group to honestly share the Spirit Essence with him.

"How about it? Do you want to snatch it from us? Remember, there are three of us, and you're just alone," Meng Zhang said disdainfully. Ye Feifan delighted in tormenting cultivators from prestigious families, enjoying their transition from arrogance to despair.

However, he knew that even with his strange and powerful secret techniques, defeating Meng Zhang's group on his own would be difficult, if not impossible. Ye Feifan never expected to achieve this feat alone.

He quickly shot a flying talisman into the sky. The talisman flew straight up and burst into a splendid display of colors, creating a colorful ribbon in the sky, marking their location.

Before taking action, Ye Feifan had already contacted familiar rogue cultivators and arranged for them to ambush nearby. These rogue cultivators were not willing to help Ye Feifan seize the Spirit Essence, but they were eager to hunt down foreign cultivators. If they encountered outsiders, they would not let them escape easily.

Upon receiving Ye Feifan's signal, these cultivators would rush to the scene as fast as possible. With Ye Feifan's strength, keeping Meng Zhang's group occupied was not a difficult task.

"I see you've set up some hidden helpers. No wonder you're so confident. Unfortunately, I have some allies as well," Meng Zhang said calmly.

Ye Feifan's face was filled with scorn. Among the Deadly Sea of Sand, the most troublesome cultivators to deal with were the rogue cultivators. Even Ghost Path cultivators would avoid them.

The foreign cultivators who came here were, at best, at the Foundation Building completion stage. No matter how many of them there were, they would all become lost souls in the Deadly Sea of Sand.

It was as if Meng Zhang hadn't seen Ye Feifan's reaction and remained relaxed. In fact, Meng Zhang's allies had already arrived earlier.

In the distance, the figure of Chasing Lightning was much larger than usual, catching everyone's attention as it flew rapidly toward them. Behind Chasing Lightning were a group of Ghost Path cultivators in hot pursuit.

Ye Feifan saw the Ghost Path cultivators, and his confident smile vanished instantly.

He clearly remembered that, in order to appease Meng Zhang, he had sworn an oath that if any Ghost Path cultivators appeared in front of him and Meng Zhang after seizing the Spirit Essence, he would have to do everything in his power to kill them.

Ye Feifan had never expected a group of Ghost Path cultivators to actually appear before him.

Now, Ye Feifan was inadvertently putting himself in a difficult position, violating the oath.

The consequences of breaking such an oath were terrifying, and Ye Feifan knew this all too well.

Yet, Ye Feifan was a decisive and cunning person, not one to hesitate. Upon seeing the Ghost Path cultivators, he made up his mind.

He left Meng Zhang and the others behind and took the initiative to fly towards the approaching Ghost Path cultivators.

While the Ghost Path cultivators found Ye Feifan's sudden approach strange, they were cautious as they had been hunted by cultivators from all sides in the Cultivation World. They didn't let their guard down, even in the face of someone they considered a friend like Ye Feifan.

Although they suffered a slight surprise at the beginning, they quickly responded, and a fierce battle broke out between them and Ye Feifan.

The infuriated Ghost Path cultivators didn't show any mercy, and Ye Feifan's confident expression disappeared as he was forced to defend himself.

Seizing this opportunity, Chasing Lightning quickly flew over to join Meng Zhang and the others.

They didn't linger any longer and flew towards the direction of the exit from the Deadly Sea of Sand.

Before the operation, Meng Zhang had dispatched his spirit pet, Chasing Lightning, to track down the Ghost Path cultivators. The whereabouts of Ghost Path cultivators were relatively easy to detect, and Chasing Lightning found them and provoked them into chasing after him.

Chasing Lightning led the group of Ghost Path cultivators in circles, drawing them away from Meng Zhang's group after Meng Zhang successfully escaped with the Spirit Essence.
