Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

After staring at Chen Tian for a good while, Daoist Nanxian seemed somewhat disappointed. He put away the blue orb he had painstakingly captured and returned to He Busi and the others.

Seeing this, the crowd sighed helplessly and continued their previous transactions.

However, there were still some people who, unwilling to give up, continued to squat around the giant handprint pit, trying to wait for the third wave of Heavenly Dao Intent to erupt.

This year's trade fair lasted twice as long as in previous years.

Only then did they have to admit that there would be no third wave of Heavenly Dao Intent erupting.

Thinking of this, the cultivators who had not captured any Heavenly Dao Intent all sighed helplessly.

"Senior Brother Cao, do you think we should continue waiting?"

At this time, the Hai Lan Sect had already acquired several Heavenly Dao Intents at a high price, making this trip extremely successful. However, they were not in a hurry to leave. Like everyone else, they looked towards the giant handprint pit from time to time.

However, after waiting for most of the day, nothing happened, which made some of them feel bored. So, they approached Cao Qinghua and asked him.

When they came out of the sect, they received orders to listen to Cao Qinghua's instructions in everything outside, so they were now waiting for Cao Qinghua to make a decision for them.

To be honest, Cao Qinghua had also encountered this anomaly for the first time this year. Like everyone else, he was full of expectations, wanting to see if there would be a third wave of Heavenly Dao Intent erupting.

However, the final result disappointed him. In addition, the deadline given to them by the sect was approaching. If they continued to wait, they would miss the time to return and would definitely be punished by the sect.

Thinking of this, Cao Qinghua quickly calculated and finally made a decision, saying to the crowd, "The master has strictly ordered us to return to the sect the day after tomorrow. Calculating the time, even if we start now, we will soon be too late, so there is no need to wait any longer. Let's go now."

Hearing Cao Qinghua's words, the Hai Lan Sect disciples responded excitedly. They were also eager to return.

However, just at this moment, Cao Qinghua seemed to have thought of something. He suddenly walked to Chen Tian's side and said, "How about it, Brother Yang? Do you want to leave with us?"

"Well…" Chen Tian pondered for a moment after hearing this, then smiled and shook his head, saying, "I think I'll pass. I still have some things to do here, so I won't go with you."

"Oh? Could it be that Brother Yang, you plan to go to the ancient battlefield of the ancient Immortal-Demon War?" Hearing Chen Tian's words, Cao Qinghua seemed to have thought of something and asked in surprise.

"Yes, that's right. That's exactly what I intend to do." Chen Tian didn't hide anything after hearing this, smiling and saying, "Since I've finally come here, of course, I have to go there. To be honest, I'm very much looking forward to it."

"Brother Yang, although we haven't known each other for long, we can be considered as having hit it off at first sight. There's something I don't know if I should say or not." Seeing Chen Tian's excited appearance, Cao Qinghua revealed a hint of embarrassment and hesitated.

"Brother Cao, why be so polite? If you have something to say, just say it. I will definitely listen attentively." Chen Tian also noticed Cao Qinghua's abnormality and frowned slightly.

"Alright, since that's the case, then I'll be so bold as to say it." Cao Qinghua seemed to have made up his mind. After looking around, he leaned close to Chen Tian's ear and whispered, "Brother Yang, although it is rumored that the ancient battlefield contains many ancient treasures left behind, it is also the most dangerous area in the entire Demon Domain Ruins. I advise you to take a look around the periphery and don't go inside."

"Hmm? Why is that?" Hearing Cao Qinghua's advice, Chen Tian frowned, puzzled.

"Let me tell you this. When our Hai Lan Sect first established diplomatic relations with the Frozen Demon Domain, we sent a Building Heaven Realm elder and ten Core Sea Realm senior brothers to the ancient battlefield to investigate. However, after returning, the Building Heaven Realm elder went directly into seclusion and has not come out until now. Of the remaining ten Core Sea Realm senior brothers, only six returned. Although this matter is classified as top secret in our Hai Lan Sect, I accidentally learned about it. Now that I'm telling you this, you should understand the meaning behind it, right?"

Cao Qinghua's face was gloomy at this time, not at all like he was joking.

And Chen Tian's heart also trembled suddenly upon hearing this.

He naturally understood the hidden meaning in Cao Qinghua's words. Although he could not speculate on what those highly skilled Hai Lan Sect experts had encountered, one thing was certain: the ancient battlefield was full of dangers. If one was not careful, they might die and disappear.

At this time, Chen Tian also recalled another thing.

Chen Tian remembered that when he asked the Mad Old Man about the situation in the Demon Domain Ruins, the Mad Old Man had also mentioned to him that this Demon Domain Ruins was full of countless dangers and obstacles, and even cultivators who had cultivated to the Building Heaven Realm might fall within it.

Different people told the same story, all warning Chen Tian that a huge crisis was hidden within this Demon Domain Ruins.

If ordinary people heard this, they might be frightened and develop the intention to retreat.

However, after hearing this, Chen Tian remained unmoved, just looking at Cao Qinghua and saying in a deep voice, "Thank you for Brother Cao's reminder. I will definitely be more careful."

Cao Qinghua was a smart man. After hearing Chen Tian's words, he immediately knew that he still wanted to explore the ancient battlefield.

Thinking of this, Cao Qinghua shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Since that's the case, then I wish Brother Yang a smooth journey."

"Thank you for your kind words." Chen Tian eased his tense expression and smiled at Cao Qinghua.

"By the way, Brother Yang, you said earlier that you were with our team, but we have already decided not to go to the ancient battlefield, so how will you get out then?"

At this time, Cao Qinghua suddenly thought that if he wanted to get out through the Immortal Gate, he must collect seven jade keys.

And since Chen Tian was unwilling to leave with them at this time, how would he collect seven jade keys to get out at that time?
