Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

Although Chen Tian was very curious about the meaning of Han Wuming's words just now, he knew this person's character very well. He always had a strange and eccentric appearance. The more you pressed him, the less likely he was to tell you the truth.

So Chen Tian simply ignored him and asked about the immediate problem: "Alright, then tell me, how are we going to break through these five hundred layers of restrictions and get inside?"

After arriving at this Holy Demon Cave, the damaged Immortal Clan bloodline in Chen Tian's body had been constantly throbbing, as if urging Chen Tian to enter the cave as soon as possible.

Fortunately, Chen Tian's willpower far surpassed others, so he was not affected by this violent emotion, and the expression on his face remained calm as usual.

After hearing Chen Tian's question, Han Wuming gave a weird laugh, then opened his mouth wide, and a ball of dazzling white light flew out of his stomach.

It wasn't until the white light dissipated that Chen Tian could see clearly what this thing was… it turned out to be a jade tablet made of white jade.

The jade tablet was five inches in size, crystal clear, and engraved with some complex and mysterious patterns, which at first glance were not ordinary.

Seeing Han Wuming take out this jade tablet, Chen Tian asked curiously again: "What is this?"

"Heh heh, Master, this is called the Holy Soul Token. Unlike the pirated key I mentioned just now, this is the genuine treasure token passed down by the founding ancestor himself, which can open the Holy Demon Cave's restriction method!" Han Wuming pinched the jade tablet with two fingers and said to Chen Tian with a smile.

Chen Tian was immediately surprised when he heard Han Wuming's words, and couldn't help but blurt out: "How do you have this genuine treasure token?"

A look of得意 flashed across Han Wuming's face, and he smiled: "Master, this old servant forgot to tell you that, in order to show fairness, this Holy Soul Token is managed by our four elders in rotation. When the three-year period arrives, the person in charge of the treasure token will be responsible for opening the restriction, and everyone will enter the Holy Demon Cave together to absorb demonic energy. It just so happens that it's my turn to open the restriction next year, so this Holy Soul Token is in my custody."

After hearing Han Wuming's explanation, Chen Tian finally understood, but immediately afterwards, a trace of anger rose in his heart.

As expected, this Han Wuming had a way to enter the Holy Demon Cave, and his previous evasions were all to fool Chen Tian.

This made Chen Tian even more certain that, despite Han Wuming's apparent surrender to him and devotion to him as his master, Han Wuming was still half-hearted in secret and didn't take Chen Tian seriously at all.

But after being angry for a while, Chen Tian couldn't help but sigh. He knew that the reason why Han Wuming was so perfunctory to him was ultimately because his strength was too weak.

If Chen Tian's cultivation was higher than Han Wuming's, and his strength was greater than Han Wuming's, then even without the restraint of the slave restriction, Han Wuming would willingly obey him.

After understanding this, Chen Tian became even more determined in his confidence. No matter what, he must break through to the Spiritual Guidance Stage!

While Chen Tian was lost in thought, Han Wuming had already begun to use the jade tablet to open the seal.

A series of soft, milky white lights emitted from the Holy Soul Token, and as soon as they came into contact with the seal in front of the Holy Demon Cave, they instantly stirred up layers of ripples.

Then it suddenly transformed, and the five hundred restrictions opened like five hundred flower petals blooming, and soon a crystal corridor running through the front and back appeared in front of Chen Tian.

All five hundred restrictions were opened.

At this time, Han Wuming's somewhat hoarse voice also came over: "Heh heh, Master, the restriction has been opened, you can safely enter the cave."

Chen Tian frowned slightly after hearing this, and did not rush in. Instead, he separated a wisp of spiritual consciousness and probed into the crystal corridor. After checking around, Chen Tian did not find any mechanisms or traps.

After confirming this, Chen Tian sighed and said faintly: "Okay, I'll go in. According to the previous agreement, you can come and pick me up next year."

After giving his instructions, Chen Tian walked towards the crystal corridor without looking back.

And with each step Chen Tian took, the restrictions that had just been opened behind him closed again, quickly blocking his figure.

Han Wuming did not follow in, but bowed at the entrance of the cave and said: "Then this old servant wishes the master an early attainment of the Great Dao!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the last restriction completely fell, and the five hundred and eight restrictions re-healed, emitting a dazzling light before becoming silent again, completely blocking the entrance of the cave.

At this time, Han Wuming, who had been bowing, straightened his back, looked at the entrance of the Holy Demon Cave, and sneered disdainfully: "Hmph, I'll give you another year. By then, if you haven't made any breakthroughs, don't blame this old man for being unrighteous."

After saying that, Han Wuming waved his hand, removed the illusion in front of the Holy Demon Cave, and then swaggered away.

In fact, both Chen Tian and Han Wuming knew very well that if Chen Tian could not break through to the Spiritual Guidance Stage in the next year or so, then there would really be no hope for the rest of his life!

Of course, Chen Tian was under more pressure to face such a result.

He didn't want to be trapped in the Spiritual Awakening Stage for the rest of his life, after all, he still had to save Little Dragon!

"No matter what, I must break through to the Spiritual Guidance Stage!"

An unprecedented look of determination flashed in Chen Tian's eyes, and then he resolutely followed the crystal corridor and walked towards the bottom of the Holy Demon Cave.

The Ghost Dao Sect was already built at the bottom of Ghost Cry Mountain, but unexpectedly, the location of the Holy Demon Cave was even lower!

Chen Tian didn't know how long he had been walking, but he only felt that the surrounding temperature was getting lower and lower. Although Chen Tian had already cultivated to the Great Perfection of the Spiritual Awakening Stage, and should be invulnerable to water and fire, he couldn't help but hug his arms and shiver in the face of such low temperatures.

At the same time, the further he went, the more strange patterns began to appear on the originally smooth crystal corridor, like man-made carvings.

Chen Tian took a rough look and immediately understood that these were murals.

After looking all the way, Chen Tian gradually understood what these murals meant.

These murals together tell a continuous story about a handsome cultivator who accidentally discovered a pitch-black, demon-like corpse in a deep mountain, and then he sat cross-legged next to the corpse and cultivated day and night.

Gradually, the cultivator's originally handsome face disappeared, and instead became as ugly and sinister as the demon corpse.

And at the same time, the cultivator's strength suddenly increased. In a mural, the scene of him fighting with hundreds of people was heavily depicted.

Although the process of the battle was not painted, the last mural showed a small mountain made of corpses, and the cultivator's terrifying and triumphant smile.

Chen Tian frowned slightly when he saw this. He could guess that the murals were about the deeds of the Ghost Dao Sect's founding ancestor.

Here, finally, was the place where the corpses of the ancient demons were sealed!
