It was none other than Supreme Treasure!
In fact, when Yi Tianchen learned that Supreme Treasure had activated the main quest triggered by the Heavenly Path, he already knew that one day, he would inevitably face off against Supreme Treasure because of this quest.
However, he did not expect that day to come so soon!
Clearly, it was his mentor Aydin who sensed the soul of Princess Elena residing within the Soul Pearl that Yi Tianchen carried, and conveyed this information to Supreme Treasure, leading to the current pursuit.
Unlike NPC teams, Supreme Treasure and his companions could teleport directly to Southern Wilderness City through Main City.
"It's all for the quest; bring it on!"
Yi Tianchen replied, summoning his mount and soaring into the sky, while Court Priest Jeno drove the carriage at full speed.
"Ga—"
A sharp cry echoed as Yi Tianchen felt the wind rushing past him. The Dragon's Roar in his hand shone brilliantly as he took a moment to observe his opponents.
There was no need to mention Supreme Treasure.
Additionally, there was the knight he had encountered during the Guild War in Divine Silence, along with Swordmaster Sword Unmatched. Moreover, it was evident that Supreme Treasure had specifically arranged his team for this battle, followed by two priests.
"Heh—"
With a light chuckle, Yi Tianchen found himself somewhat surprised.
It seemed that Supreme Treasure was determined to win this battle, and in order to accomplish this mission, their actions were extremely cautious. Among the mere five-person team, there were two high-level priests—both over level 90. If the two took turns casting Resurrection, it could spell trouble!
"Then I must offend you!"
Due to their recent collaboration with Mist of Time, although both sides had become adversaries in this mission, they exchanged pleasantries before the real battle began.
"Boom!"
A blazing fireball formed at the tip of Supreme Treasure's staff and fell like a meteor in the next moment.
At the same time, the knight and Swordmaster Sword Unmatched took action as well.
The two priests acted just as Yi Tianchen had initially feared; they first cast Resurrection on Supreme Treasure and then retreated to the outskirts of the battle, focusing on applying various combat statuses to the knight and Swordmaster Sword Unmatched while preparing to heal at any moment.
Yi Tianchen's expression darkened as he immediately changed direction...
After narrowly avoiding Supreme Treasure's fireball, Yi Tianchen launched an attack on Swordmaster Sword Unmatched. However, since both were flying in mid-air, most of their attacks turned out to be ineffective. Thus, Yi Tianchen refrained from using any heavy-hitting skills and instead sought opportunities through constant maneuvering.
However, Supreme Treasure was a dangerous presence!
As a mage, Supreme Treasure possessed many area-of-effect skills that posed a significant threat even in mid-air. Coupled with the two priests taking turns casting Life Prophecy on him, one could say that Supreme Treasure had effectively gained an immortal status.
This left Yi Tianchen feeling quite troubled!
If he solely focused on pursuing Supreme Treasure, he would undoubtedly be interrupted by the knight and Swordmaster Sword Unmatched. Moreover, if he couldn't eliminate them quickly, the priests' Life Prophecy would render his efforts futile. If he chose to take out the two priests first... if they simply ran away afterward, Yi Tianchen would truly be falling into a trap.
Do not forget, Supreme Treasure did not appear this time to kill Yi Tianchen.
If Yi Tianchen were to chase after the priest and leave, the moment there was an opening, Supreme Treasure and the others would undoubtedly strike down Court Priest Jeno and seize Princess Elena's precious body... They are players, after all, and will not obey commands like NPCs.
As long as their ultimate goal is the same, the means to achieve it are flexible!
Thus, Yi Tianchen could only keep an eye on the movements of the five from Supreme Treasure, hovering above the carriage driven by Court Priest Jeno. He had truly lost all initiative, caught in an awkward situation where he was being led by the nose, unable to unleash his full strength in battle. It was a case of having great power but finding it useless.
“Tsk tsk…”
A dry laugh came from Swordmaster Sword Unmatched, who approached and said, “Why is the esteemed First Person so timid today?”
“We both know why!”
Yi Tianchen did not elaborate. His current situation was dire; although he himself was not in immediate danger, he needed to ensure the successful completion of his mission rather than focus on his own life or death. Even if he were to die, it would only mean losing a level. But if this mission failed, how could he continue afterward?
“Ha ha, that doesn’t sound like the style of First Person!”
The knight began a verbal assault, attempting to provoke Yi Tianchen's inner impulses.
However, at this moment, Supreme Treasure was deeply troubled!
Although Yi Tianchen was heavily restrained by their five members and unable to exert his true strength, time could not be wasted. They had to recognize an obvious potential danger—
This place is Southern Wilderness City!
In the Southern Wilderness City, it was the domain of Mist of Time. In such a situation, fighting against Yi Tianchen meant they had to be wary of more than just him. It could be said that a large number of Rainy Years Guild members were surely on their way. Considering the strength of Mist of Time and the Dragon Slaying Team, Supreme Treasure and the others couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.
Not to mention, Mist of Time also had the strongest Air Force Squadron in the entire server!
As Yi Tianchen and the five members of Supreme Treasure were locked in a stalemate, a message quickly appeared in the Guild channel of Mist of Time. Liu Yuhan immediately issued an order for Li Tielong to lead over thirty air force members to provide support.
In less than ten minutes, while Supreme Treasure and his group were still engaged in a prolonged battle with Yi Tianchen, piercing cries suddenly shattered the silence of the sky…
Turning around, over thirty flying mounts, led by Li Tielong, were racing towards them. The selection of members was intentional, with most being ranged archers—clearly prepared by Liu Yuhan specifically for Supreme Treasure.
"Damn it!"
Seeing this scene, Supreme Treasure felt like he was about to spit blood!
The reality was already very clear; this operation by Supreme Treasure and his team was destined to fail.
"President, what should we do?"
Two priests caught up to Supreme Treasure's side. He bitterly smiled and said, "The gap in strength is too great. It seems our efforts are in vain. More importantly, I fear this mission will end in failure right from the start. Sigh, to minimize casualties, everyone retreat!"
