Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

After escaping the pursuit of the red-haired man and flying south for about two days, Chen Tian finally arrived at the other side of the ancient battlefield.

But the scene he saw just as he arrived immediately filled Chen Tian with endless surprise.

Chen Tian discovered that there were none of the grand palaces and magnificent altars he had seen before.

Standing there silently, they seemed to recount the vicissitudes and tragedies of ancient times.

The moment Chen Tian saw these desolate mountains, scenes of magnificent grandeur involuntarily surfaced in his mind.

Back then, this place wasn't as desolate as it was now, with lush, green trees and fragrant grasses covering the mountains and plains.

But suddenly, one day, a group of black demons descended upon this place, and a great calamity began!

Clearly, the reason this place had become like this was all thanks to the great calamity millions of years ago.

The past was gone, and it was useless to dwell on it, so Chen Tian quickly calmed down and began to travel through this desolate and chaotic group of giant mountains.

After flying for a while, a peculiar hill suddenly caught Chen Tian's attention.

This hill was somewhat different from the other desolate mountains, with a huge opening at its peak, from which plumes of black smoke and a pungent sulfur smell emanated.

'It's a volcano!'

After a moment of astonishment, Chen Tian suddenly exclaimed in his heart.

He really hadn't expected that in this dark and gloomy void, there would actually be such a colossal volcano.

Seeing this strange phenomenon, Chen Tian was immediately filled with curiosity, so he flashed and flew towards the volcano.

Peering into the crater, the first thing Chen Tian saw was a field of bright red, blood-like lava, with white bubbles floating up from time to time.

Each time a bubble burst, a surge of scorching heat and a pungent odor would also dissipate.

Although Chen Tian was far away at the crater, his face was still illuminated blood-red by the lava.

At the same time, Chen Tian felt parched and his body was unbearably hot, as if the moisture in his body was rapidly evaporating.

Chen Tian's eyes flickered slightly, and then he took out a blue spirit talisman from his storage ring and quickly stuck it to his body.

Immediately, a stream of coolness poured out from the talisman, slightly alleviating the sweltering heat in his heart.

Feeling this coolness, Chen Tian took a deep breath, and his mind gradually calmed down.

Then, he continued to look around.

All around the volcano, there were pitch-black and eerie spatial cracks, as if a fierce battle had erupted here countless years ago, the immense power tearing apart the sky and shattering the barrier.

These cracks were the scars left behind by that battle.

Spatial cracks were common throughout this ancient battlefield, and although they were more concentrated here, Chen Tian didn't pay much attention to them.

So he withdrew his gaze and continued to look into the interior of the volcano.

After observing carefully for a while, Chen Tian suddenly seemed to discover something, and a hint of surprise appeared in his heart.

Chen Tian noticed that on the southern wall of the volcano, there was an opening that was constantly opening and closing.

This opening was less than three zhang away from the lava below, and the high temperature released by the bursting bubbles scorched the stone wall until it was extremely red, as if even the surrounding stones were burning.

Even more surprising was that this opening didn't appear in a fixed manner, but opened and closed intermittently.

The frequency of the alternation was very fast, like a pair of scissors constantly opening and closing.

The speed was so fast that it was impossible to see clearly with the naked eye.

A careless observer would overlook its existence.

It took Chen Tian a great deal of effort to notice the existence of this strange opening.

At the same time, as a grandmaster of formations, Chen Tian naturally knew that this opening was not formed naturally, but was a forbidden formation.

In other words, the opening and the surrounding stone walls were actually a large, intricately structured formation, deliberately placed here by someone.

Chen Tian also discovered that behind this opening, there was a hidden passage.

But what was inside this passage? Chen Tian had no idea.

'Who exactly set up a formation here? Where does the passage behind this opening lead to?'

After observing this strange opening for a long time, the doubts in Chen Tian's heart not only didn't decrease, but instead made him even more confused.

The Ruins of the Demon Realm were full of hidden dangers, but in contrast, behind these dangers, there were treasures everywhere!

Although he didn't know what this strange opening was all about, Chen Tian vaguely felt that there must be a carefully hidden secret behind it.

Thinking of this, the curiosity in Chen Tian's heart became even stronger.

After pondering for a long time, a look of determination suddenly appeared on Chen Tian's face.

He finally made up his mind that he had to go in and investigate, no matter what.

After making his decision, Chen Tian didn't hesitate any longer.

He jumped up and plunged into the volcano, which was filled with scorching heat.

Just as he entered, a wave of heat that seemed capable of steaming people rushed towards Chen Tian, quickly enveloping his body, causing his hair to begin to curl slightly.

Seeing this, Chen Tian's face suddenly darkened, and then a burst of spiritual light shot out from his body, forming a protective aura that enveloped his entire body.

With the protection of this aura, the heat that enveloped Chen Tian was instantly isolated, so that he could no longer feel any heat.

After breathing a sigh of relief, Chen Tian didn't delay any further and quickly descended.

Before long, he arrived near the strange opening he had discovered earlier.

This opening was still opening and closing at an extremely fast frequency, with each opening lasting only a fraction of a breath.

After estimating this time, the handprint he had seen on the Ascension Platform immediately appeared in Chen Tian's mind.

Chen Tian felt somewhat puzzled, wondering if there was any connection between this opening and that handprint?

But now was clearly not the time to think about these things.

Quickly, Chen Tian regained his senses, and then he once again focused all his attention on this strange opening.
