Eternal life begins with saving my clan

Su Yen's departure was never made public; only the upper echelon knew of it.

The advanced Humvee convoy was traveling through the quiet, endless mountain range.

Su Yen sat in his vehicle with a slight frown on his face. Before him was a formation displaying some records about the barren land.

From what they had learned from the Bear Giant Ape, they knew the Lotus World was not as simple as they had thought.

Therefore, the prospect of exploring such a deadly battlefield with the promise of learning more about the planet was a risk he was willing to take.

After traveling a couple of miles deep into the Endless Mountain Range, the convoy stopped, and a massive mountain giant appeared before them.

The mountain giant, with massive orb-like eyes, looked at the strange artifact floating above the ground for a moment, then turned his head and walked deeper into the Endless Mountain Range.

After defeating the Bear Mountain Giant, who begged for mercy and pleaded that he knew many secrets about the ancient battlefield, Su Yen spared his life and placed a soul mark on him. Thus, he was now at Su Yen's mercy.

Even though the giant race was prideful, facing Su Yen made him realize how inconsequential their race was in front of the Pagoda Bloodline.

As the mountain giant strode through the Endless Mountain Range, each of his footsteps left a deep, deafening sound.

After traveling non-stop for five days, everyone realized why the mountain range was called the Endless Mountain Range.

Zimo, the captain of the team, stretched his legs and looked at the strange mountains surrounding them.

"Captain, how long do you think it will take us to get to our destination?" one of the soldiers asked curiously.

"Shut up. As a soldier, you don't ask questions," Zimo berated and returned to his vehicle.

The young soldier who asked the question out of curiosity felt a cold shiver run down his spine.

He looked at his teammates and saw the deep frown on their faces. Without a doubt, he knew he had just made the biggest blunder of his career.

After taking a short break, the convoy resumed their journey into the depths of the Endless Mountain Range.

Su Yen, on the other hand, didn't feel the need to take a break. Continue reading at empire

Currently, he was looking at satellite images of the mountains and noticed they were getting close to the mysterious thick fog.

Inside the front vehicle, Zimo frowned slightly when he heard Su Yen's voice in his mind.

"We're getting close to the fog. Be on guard."

Instantly, his frown turned solemn, and he ordered his men to stay alert.

With the command out, the atmosphere inside the vehicle became tense.

It took them another hour before they began to see the mysterious fog in the distance.

When the Bear Mountain Giant saw the fog, his calm expression changed, becoming solemn.

"We're entering. Be careful," his voice boomed through the mountain range.

Slowly, they got closer to the mysterious fog, and the thick tension rose by another notch.

"Hmm!"

A groan escaped from the giant as he entered the fog. His usual calm and indifferent expression became solemn, etched with fear.

Entering the mysterious fog was like entering a no man's land. Many terrifying beasts and races lay waste in the fog.

Even if they had only a portion of their strength, it was enough to cause carnage.

After the mountain giant entered the fog, the barren land convoy followed.

Instantly, their visual view was obstructed by the fog. Even with their bloodline, they could only see a couple of meters ahead.

Su Yen, on the other hand, could see hundreds of meters around without any difficulty.

Nevertheless, he gave an order: "Switch on the sensors."

Instantly, a blue light flickered around the vehicles as the various sensors came online.

Venturing into such a deadly place with Core Refining Warriors was not because they underestimated the threat level of the ancient battlefield but because they had something to depend on.

The advanced Humvee vehicle was one such asset. It was equipped with thermal imaging sensors that could sense up to a 1km radius.

Apart from that, there were also motion sensors with the same range as the thermal imaging sensors, the spiritual energy detector, the life force sensor, and other common detectors.

As for defense and attack capabilities, the advanced Humvee was equipped with a defensive formation that could defend against a peak Nascent Soul attack.

It also had an Earth Mirror formation that would reflect attacks back to the attacker.

Mounted on each vehicle were four weapons: two rapid-fire guns, one lightning cannon, and one Thunder-X cannon.

As for threats above the Nascent Soul Realm, they had their Emperor, Su Yen, for that.

Moving through the fog with all the sensors online, the trouble of not seeing into the distance was eliminated.

After traveling for more than an hour in the fog, the terrain began to change.

They began to descend as if coming down from a cliff.

Suddenly, the alarm went off inside the various vehicles as the sensors picked up a rapidly approaching object.

Zimo did not dally and commanded, "All weapons, target the incoming threat."

Instantly, the horrifying guns moved automatically and targeted a specific location.

Meanwhile, the Bear Mountain Giant halted his track when he heard a warning from Su Yen.

The giant was confused. He turned his big head to look for any sign of threat but detected none.

'Is the fog affecting these strange humans?' he thought with a perplexed look on his face.

Still, he obeyed the command and waited patiently for the threat.

In the vehicle, all the men could see the rapidly approaching object.

The advanced camera on the vehicle began to pick up traces of the rapidly approaching object.

'Danger Level: Category-3'

A message appeared on the screen before Su Yen. Besides, he was not the only one seeing the message; the other soldiers also saw it.

"Huh!"

The soldiers gasped in shock. They had just entered the fog and had already encountered a Category-3 threat.

When the object was five hundred meters from them, the image of the object became clear.

It was a beast with a horn—the Desolate Horn Wolf.
