The entrance to the Fire Organization's lair lay right before their eyes, and at that moment, Lin Yifan and his companions rushed forward, preparing to force their way through.
If it were ordinary people, Yifan would have never chosen such a blind approach; he knew that typical underground military bases were equipped with machine guns and rocket launchers at the entrance and its vicinity, to strafe any attacking enemies.
Now, all four of them possessed Cultivation Powers and were no longer ordinary people, capable of advancing through a hail of bullets; thus, upon sighting the entrance, they decisively charged forth.
No sooner had they emerged from the jungle than they came under fierce attack from the Fire Organization.
Immediately, they utilized their Cultivation Powers to protect their bodies, continuously swinging their sharp swords, deflecting the bullets flying directly at them.
Yifan's realm was relatively low, unable to withstand the bullets for long; thus, to conserve his strength, he took cover behind Li Dafeng and the others as they charged ahead together.
As they neared the base's gate, the Fire Organization launched a bombardment with rocket grenades.
In an instant, dozens of rocket grenades converged at the location in front of the gate, bombarding the attacking enemies.
Yifan and his companions might have been able to fend off one or two rocket grenades, but not dozens; the combined explosion of so many rocket grenades was tantamount to the blast of a missile. For safety's sake, they rapidly retreated once more.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The next moment, a deafening series of explosions rang out in front of the military base gate; the dozens of rocket grenades exploded with tremendous destructive force, obliterating the land in that area.
Dirt and rocks flew, thick smoke billowed, and a powerful shockwave surged out, sweeping through the surroundings.
Yifan and the others kept fleeing, only stopping their retreat once they had reached a safe location.
"Huff! Huff!"
"Damn it!"
Yifan and his companions panted heavily, cursing under their breath; clearly shaken by their recent encounter.
Now, a joint assault was out of the question unless they sent a single person to force entry or found another entrance to breach.
"You three stay here; I'll go and break through the gate alone," instructed Li Dafeng.
His realm was the highest, and he was the strongest. If even he couldn't break through the military base's gate, Yifan and the others would likely be of no help either; moreover, a solitary assault would reduce the casualty rate. It was the best course of action with multiple advantages.
"Big brother! It's too dangerous for you to go alone; if we go, we should go together," Li Xiaofeng objected.
The recent grenade explosion had been intensely fierce, and he worried that his older brother would be in danger alone.
"It's more dangerous for us to go together. Just stay put, I'll be right back," Li Dafeng said before stepping out.
Li Xiaofeng and the others wanted to dissuade him, but Li Dafeng had his reasons for his actions; thus, they let him go alone. Nevertheless, they couldn't help but worry deeply about Dafeng's safety.
As soon as Li Dafeng stepped out, the mercenaries inside the Fire Organization lair opened fire ferociously, continually unleashing a barrage of shots.
At that moment, Li Dafeng dodged the attacks from the rocket grenades while sprinting forward at high speed.
It must be said, charging into battle alone was too easy, free of any worries that one might have when accompanied.
Weaving left and right, it wasn't long before Dafeng again drew close to the Fire Organization military base's gate; when suddenly, another volley of falling grenade fire came raining down upon him.
Seeing this, Dafeng didn't stop to think, quickly dodging to the side.
From a distance, Yifan, Xiaofeng, and Lin Yanping watched the scene, all holding their breath for Dafeng; fortunately, he managed to avoid the barrage of grenade fire.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
After the grenades had exploded, Li Dafeng swiftly charged into the billowing smoke and dust, storming directly through the entrance of the Fire Organization's base.
Because their vision was obscured, the mercenaries within the lair of the Fire Organization had no idea where Li Dafeng was; hence, they attacked blindly and without direction.
Seizing this opportunity, Li Dafeng quickly made his way to the entrance of the military base and then unleashed the strongest power he could muster, delivering a fierce slash.
"Boom!"
The ferocious slash he swung was no less powerful than the combined explosions of several grenades. However, despite its extraordinary power, it was still unable to breach the thick steel door.
After the Sword Qi struck, the massive steel door was left with a deep sword mark; it was apparent that Li Dafeng's attack had some effect.
When the first strike failed to achieve its goal, Li Dafeng did not waste time, and he delivered another fierce slash.
"Boom!"
Another collision ensued, and the steel door trembled violently once again; at this point, a considerable amount of dust and debris fell from the tunnel ceiling, a consequence of the intense vibrations.
The two successive forceful impacts made the Fire Organization staff inside the base extremely anxious; they were genuinely afraid that these four abnormal people of the Yellow race would break in and start a massacre.
Therefore, they concentrated their firepower on the entrance, determined to kill this Yellow man attacking their door.
The terrifying barrage of grenades came once more, and Li Dafeng hastily employed his Qinggong to retreat backward.
After returning to the safety zone, he went to meet up with Lin Yifan and the others.
"How did it go? Did you break through?" Lin Yifan asked impatiently.
"Huff, huff!"
After catching his breath and calming his emotions, Li Dafeng finally replied, "No, that iron door is too thick and too sturdy, we can't break through it."
This response left Lin Yifan and the others feeling dejected. If they could not break through the gate, they would have to leave; because they still had an important task to attend to, they couldn't afford to stay there indefinitely.
"So, what do we do now? Do we continue to stay here or choose to head back?" Lin Yanping looked to Lin Yifan and inquired.
"Don't rush! Let me think of a solution." After saying this, Lin Yifan fell into a deep thought.
He quickly came up with an idea; if the Fire Organization was able to launch missiles from here, it was possible there was a missile launch facility on the mountain they occupied.
The underground missile launch facility should be connected to the military base inside the mountain, so if they could find the missile launch facility, they should be able to enter the Fire Organization's military base.
So, he shared this line of thought with Lin Yanping and the others.
Lin Yanping and the rest thought this plan was feasible, but there was a problematic detail, and that was the extensive amount of time it would take to search for the missile launch facility in the vast mountains.
They were on a time-sensitive mission and could not afford to spend a lot of time here.
Therefore, they asked Lin Yifan if there was any way to quickly find the missile launch facility.
"Do you have a simple method to quickly locate the Fire Organization's missile launch facility?"
Missile launches generally fall into two categories, one is the angled incline launch, and the other is the vertical launch.
The vertical launch is typically used for large-scale gravitic missiles like nuclear missiles, while the angled incline launch is suitable for medium-sized lightweight missiles.
