Supreme Martial God of the City

Chapter 1484: Chapter 1361: So That’s How It Is

"This cave is extremely ancient. We are currently in Cave No. 1, and there are four more, making a total of five caves."

Gai Yi explained, "Among them, I have explored Caves 1, 2, 3, and 4, but I cannot enter Cave No. 5!"

"What?"

Wang Chengyi was somewhat surprised, "Senior, even you can’t enter? With your strength so great, you can’t enter?"

"Precisely because of my strength, I cannot enter."

Gai Yi spoke helplessly, "Cave No. 5 has a restriction at its entrance, which limits the strength of the Martial Arts Practitioners entering it. It seems those above the Ruins Master Realm can’t enter. I attempted to break the restriction once and nearly suffered a backlash that could have killed me."

"I see."

Wang Chengyi and the others nodded in understanding, realizing why this senior had kindly brought them here. It turned out that he couldn’t enter himself.

"If I’m not mistaken, inside Cave No. 5 there should be the God Demon Tripod."

Gai Yi continued, "You don’t have to worry that after entering Cave No. 5 and obtaining the God Demon Tripod, I will steal it from you. In fact, my life span is not long, and I can’t leave the Divine Demon Battlefield. I’ve lived for more than a billion years and have long come to terms with life and death. I even wish to die sooner."

Though he said this.

However, Dugu Yuan and the others’ vigilance rose again.

They couldn’t help but fear that Gai Yi might seize the God Demon Tripod after they acquired it.

After all, they were the ones Gai Yi had brought to enter Cave No. 5.

It’s entirely possible!

"To dispel your doubts, take these Space Transmission Talismans."

The atmosphere was a bit quiet, and Gai Yi suddenly produced several Space Transmission Talismans, handing them to Qian Shanshan and the others.

Each person got one.

"These Space Transmission Talismans, you should be able to tell if they are real or fake. Once you enter Cave No. 5, no matter what treasures you gain, even if it is the God Demon Tripod, it will be your luck. Use this Space Transmission Talisman immediately to leave. You won’t need to come out and see me again, as I can’t enter Cave No. 5. This way, you are guaranteed absolute safety, right?" Gai Yi added.

Qian Shanshan and the others, who recognized the usefulness of the Space Transmission Talisman, knew it was indeed genuine.

Moreover, the level of the talisman was not low.

It seemed this senior was speaking the truth.

"I’m sorry, elder! I shouldn’t have judged your noble intentions with suspicion!"

Wang Chengyi blushed and slapped himself hard, feeling utterly ashamed.

Zhang Ge bowed respectfully.

Qian Shanshan also bowed awkwardly.

"Thank you."

Dugu Yuan stated solemnly, dispelling any remaining doubts about Gai Yi.

"I have been trapped in this Divine Demon Battlefield for so long, feeling very lonely. Meeting you is fate, and I am merely offering you some opportunities. Haha, it’s only natural for you to be cautious, as the world of Martial Arts is full of conspiracies and harshness."

Gai Yi spoke in a heartfelt manner.

Internally, he sneered.

The Space Transmission Talisman was indeed real.

But what of it? As long as he willed it, the space would solidify, rendering the talisman ineffective.

Moreover, he did not intend for Dugu Yuan and the others to open Cave No. 5!

The next steps were the most crucial.

"Let’s begin."

Gai Yi had already brought them to the entrance of Cave No. 5.

At the entrance.

There was indeed an array!!!

A complex and mysterious array...

"A Witch Array within the Witch God Lamp!"

Outside, Dan Tai Zhen Cang instantly identified it; the array at the entrance of the so-called Cave No. 5 was created using the Witch God Lamp.

How could Dugu Yuan and the others possibly open it?

What a joke?

Simultaneously, outside.

In the sky.

The synchronized scene abruptly displayed a small image... The image showed the inside of the so-called Cave No. 5!

"Overflowing with Witch Origin!"

Inside Cave No. 5, it was filled with Witch Origin, all extremely dense and liquefied.

Dan Tai Zhen Cang was astounded.

He even lost his composure.

"Damn it!!!! Witch Origin? The Ancient Demon Clan must be insane to have silently accumulated so much Witch Origin! With this much Witch Origin here, coupled with the Witch God Lamp surely in Gai Yi’s possession, Gai Yi could directly use the Witch God Lamp several times, or even employ the Witch God Dharma Image of the Ancient Demon Clan!..."

Dan Tai Zhen Cang truly panicked this time.

He instantly realized.

Why did Gai Yi deceive Dugu Yuan and the others to come here?

This place must be a gap forcibly created by the Tao Will in the Divine Demon Battlefield.

This gap connects to the Ancient Demon Clan.

Then, the Ancient Demon Clan can transfer the Witch Origin they have accumulated over billions of years into this gap within the Divine Demon Battlefield for Gai Yi’s use.

Witch Origin cannot be carried with oneself, as Gai Yi could not withstand it.

It could only be placed within this gap.

"Next, they should be using Dugu Yuan and the others to lure Ye Tian here."

Dan Tai Zhen Cang had already guessed the truth.

Why did Gai Yi need to gain Dugu Yuan and the others’ trust, going so far as to perform several acts along the journey like suppressing Mountain Beasts and fixing lava rivers?!

This was the reason.

"As long as Gai Yi sets the battlefield against Ye Tian at this gap, Gai Yi’s power will be terrifying. He can draw on the support of the Ancient Demon Clan’s Witch Origin and utilize the Ancient Demon Clan’s Treasure, the Witch God Lamp, and the Witch God Dharma Image, making him practically invincible."

Dan Tai Zhen Cang couldn’t help but clench his fist: moreover, with the Witch God Lamp in play, even Ye Tian’s invincible female Divine Soul companion might be unable to act, as the Witch God Lamp is a rare Treasure with immense suppression on Divine Souls!"

Indeed.

The next moment.

Dugu Yuan and the others started demolishing the array formation gate of Cave No. 5.

But.

No matter how they struck it, they were a little short.

It just wouldn’t open.

After a while.

Qian Shanshan was somewhat discouraged.

"Senior, sorry for letting you down, it seems we can’t open this array formation gate."

Qian Shanshan said, her tone bitter and apologetic, feeling guilty towards Gai Yi, as he had spent so much effort bringing them here.

"Your abilities are just a little lacking. Why not cultivate here with me giving you guidance? You may need only a few thousand years, and your strength could be enough to open the array at the entrance of Cave No. 5." Gai Yi proposed.

What do you mean it can’t be opened?

This array formation gate could simply open at his whim.

He controlled it.

"A few thousand years?"

Qian Shanshan and the others pulled long faces.

A few thousand years is far too long!

They still had to return to their families in the Chaotic Domain.

The time they registered for this expedition was at most a few hundred years, but a few thousand years are impossible.

"It seems we must give up on the treasures inside this cave."

Dugu Yuan said, feeling regretful in her heart.

"This..."

Qian Shanshan was a bit reluctant, unable to find a solution.

"Speaking of which, the four of you are just a little short of strength. If you could find another helper, you might just manage it."

Gai Yi muttered.

Though he said it as if muttering.

In fact, this was the main objective!!!!

Yes.

To guide Dugu Yuan and the others, telling them they needed a helper.

"A helper?"

Sure enough, the first person Dugu Yuan thought of was Ye Tian: "Ye Tian!"

"If Ye Tian is here, he might easily open the cave entrance, but with Ye Tian around, can we still get the treasures inside the cave?"

Wang Chengyi was a bit unwilling; although he greatly admired Ye Tian, when it came to treasures and valuables, it was hard to part with them!

Ye Tian’s terrifying strength...

If he came.

He’d probably eat the meat, and they’d be lucky to drink the soup. It was frustrating!

"Indeed. That super invincible freak Ye Tian, if he wants to scoop up all the treasures in the cave, we can’t do anything." Qian Shanshan also opposed the idea.

"With Ye Tian here, even if we only get a little, it’s better than nothing. At worst, if Ye Tian reaps tremendous benefits, and we get nothing, at least Ye Tian would owe us a favor." Dugu Yuan expressed her differing opinion.

"This..."

Qian Shanshan and Wang Chengyi wavered.

A few breaths later, Qian Shanshan asked, "Miss Dugu, alright, as you say, let’s go invite Ye Tian. But now, where should we find Ye Tian?"

....
