As the conversation returned to the main topic, Yu Wuxia was still entangled in thoughts about Ye Huan's comment regarding his age. Meanwhile, Ye Huan had already prepared his defensive measures and hoisted the Javelin Anti-Tank Missile onto his shoulder. In terms of sheer power, the Javelin Anti-Tank Missile was certainly not as formidable as the Dongfeng-4, but when it came to penetration capability at a specific point, the Dongfeng-4 could not compare to the Javelin. It was akin to comparing the Desert Eagle with the domestically produced QSG92; one pursued raw power while the other sought stability, making it difficult to judge which was superior.
Boom!
As Ye Huan slowly squeezed the trigger, a Javelin Anti-Tank Missile shot out from the Javelin Anti-Tank Missile Launcher. The passage was narrow, barely wide enough for three people to walk side by side. At such close range, the air currents generated by the missile's launch whipped against Yu Wuxia's face, causing him discomfort. Before he could fully react, another loud explosion echoed through the corridor as the missile struck the wall, shaking the underground passage and sending dust swirling around them, creating an atmosphere that felt like a collapse could happen at any moment.
"Did it succeed?"
Struggling against the discomfort of strong winds blowing into his eyes, Yu Wuxia dared not blink, fearing he might miss some crucial detail. Even Ye Huan, who had been quite confident, clenched his fists tightly upon hearing Yu Wuxia's question, wishing his eyes could see through the dust to discern what was happening.
"Hey, I asked if it succeeded!"
After a moment without receiving a response from Ye Huan, Yu Wuxia repeated his question while still fixated on where the explosion had occurred. He failed to consider that in the dark underground passage, combined with the clouds of dust obscuring their vision, even with the faint light emitted by his Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy, he couldn't see outside; how could Ye Huan possibly see anything?
With a helpless pout, Ye Huan ignored Yu Wuxia entirely. However, it was clear from Ye Huan's intense gaze at the site of the explosion that he too was curious about whether they had broken through to the Eight Gates of Immortal Trapping Formation. If they had indeed breached that formation, there should have been signs of collapse above it. Yet if they hadn’t broken through, then the tremors from earlier left Ye Huan feeling uncertain.
"It seems we can only wait for the dust to settle before figuring out our next move..."
At that moment, devoid of any ideas and protected by several Modified Thick Riot Shields, all Ye Huan could do was wait. But just as he had waited for only a couple of minutes, although the dust from the explosion had not cleared away completely, two eerie green lights suddenly appeared within their line of sight amidst the swirling debris.
"Elder Yu, look! What is that?"
A gasp escaped from Ye Huan's lips as he caught sight of two eerie green lights. His first instinct was to think he had encountered some kind of pack animal. However, upon further reflection, he realized that many creatures in this world were ones he would never see again, such as the green-eyed wolves that roamed at night. It was far more likely that these glowing eyes belonged to some kind of magical beast.
"Hmph, no matter what it is, with the two of us here, even if Gu Long himself showed up, he'd just have to watch. Does he dare to make a move?"
Yu Wuxia dismissed the green glow entirely, exuding confidence. Even Gu Long, in his words, became a figure of ridicule. Fortunately, Gu Long could not possibly appear in the underground passage of Yuxu Palace; otherwise, if he heard Yu Wuxia's words, he would surely seek him out for a confrontation.
As for Ye Huan, he had initially felt a bit flustered by the sight of the green lights due to the environment they were in. But after hearing Yu Wuxia's words, he quickly regained his composure. Just as Yu Wuxia had said, with him around, any threat that appeared would be easily dealt with.
Unconsciously placing himself above Yu Wuxia, Ye Huan recalled their previous encounter with Gu Long and recognized that when faced with real danger, his own strength might surpass Yu Wuxia's. Moreover, Ye Huan's Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy could be replenished at any time. For their safety, he summoned countless small swords formed from the Golden Wind Sword from within himself before handing Yu Wuxia a modified Desert Eagle and two M67 fragmentation grenades.
"So you have so many good things on you," Yu Wuxia remarked without hesitation. He grasped the pure black Desert Eagle and carefully tucked the two M67 grenades into his clothing. The reason Yu Wuxia chose to use the arms offered by Ye Huan was simple: both the Desert Eagle and the M67 grenades did not require any consumption of his Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy. They were perfect for use in situations where his energy could not be replenished.
Noticing Yu Wuxia's actions, Ye Huan shook his head helplessly. With the two green lights still lingering in place, he said to Yu Wuxia, "I do have quite a few good things on me; it's just that you haven't noticed. We can now recover our Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy normally. If you still plan to rely on arms for combat, I advise you to reconsider."
"We can recover our Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy?"
Yu Wuxia looked at Ye Huan in surprise. It wasn't so much excitement about being able to recover his energy; rather, it was because if they could replenish their Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy, it meant that the formation leading to the Eight Gates of Immortal Trapping Formation had been broken. This was undeniable.
"That's right; we can recover our Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy now. I suspect that the formation leading to the core of the Eight Gates of Immortal Trapping Formation has been breached. What we need to do next is think about how to resolve the trouble before us. To be honest with you, I have a very bad feeling..."
Without turning his head, Ye Huan felt that ominous premonition rise again within him—stronger than ever before—which made him cautious about those two green lights he had previously dismissed. He even reminded Yu Wuxia about it, but judging by Yu Wuxia's distracted expression, it was clear that he wasn't taking Ye Huan's words seriously.
Not wanting to continue their conversation further, while Ye Huan appeared tense as if facing a great threat, Yu Wuxia seemed remarkably relaxed. From any angle one looked at it, there was no point in discussing anything with someone who had such different thoughts. Considering this perspective, Ye Huan decided not to press Yu Wuxia further but instead waited for the dust to settle so he could see what exactly was emitting those two eerie green lights before making any plans...
