"I've been waiting for you for a long ti!"
When Lin Yi opened the Stone Gate to the forbidden land beneath Celestial River City, he heard a charming, sultry voice in his ear.
Lin Yi looked up and saw a woman dressed in red, with a pitifully lovable appearance, kneeling at the center of a massive platform, her seductive eyes gazing in his direction.
At the mont their eyes t, Lin Yi couldn't help but shiver.
Just then, the Floating Holy Ring, which was previously placed into the groove, suddenly appeared in front of Lin Yi, hovering in mid-air.
Lin Yi reached out, took it down, and put it back on his finger.
At this mont, the woman suddenly spoke with a face full of lancholy:
"Saint Master, you've kept waiting for so long!"
The words from the woman's mouth seed to possess a peculiar magic power, making anyone who heard them feel a sense of comfort and joy.
However, for so reason, these words felt awkward to Lin Yi's ears.
The Jade Qilin, which had been dozing on Lin Yi's shoulder, suddenly opened its eyes and slowly stood up.
With a guarded expression, it looked at the other party and whispered in Lin Yi's ear:
"That's the Eight-Clawed Fire Python, be careful not to fall into its trap."
Hearing the warning from the Jade Qilin, Lin Yi dismissively replied:
"This little trick is only suitable for a three-year-old child."
The beauty trap might work on others, but for soone as faithful as Lin Yi...
Even if the other party stood here naked, Lin Yi wouldn't... well, at least not lose himself in beauty.
The Jade Qilin glanced at Lin Yi, helplessly reminding him once more:
"The illusion created by the Eight-Clawed Fire Python is lifelike enough to be deceptive; you'd best be cautious and not fall for it."
While they were talking, the woman had already swayed her water-snake-like figure and began slowly walking towards them.
Perhaps she montarily forgot sothing, resulting in her colliding head-on with an invisible barrier.
At the instant the woman touched the barrier,
a fiery red barrier instantly manifested before Lin Yi's eyes, enveloping the woman within.
At this mont, when the woman saw the barrier, a look of terror was evident in her eyes as she quickly retreated.
It was only then that Lin Yi realized that this was the true seal that had entrapped her for over four thousand years.
The woman, across the fiery red barrier, wore a pitiful expression as she gazed at Lin Yi, softly murmuring:
"Saint Master, save ."
For so reason, when these four words left the woman's lips, Lin Yi felt a sudden ntal haze.
Recalling the Jade Qilin's earlier warning, Lin Yi hastily closed his eyes, leaned against the wall, and shook his head vigorously.
Beside him, Tanzawa Yixiong observed and said:
"Saint Master, what's wrong?"
Just as Tanzawa Yixiong was about to step forward to assist Lin Yi, a sudden imnse force struck him.
Tanzawa Yixiong, whose strength was at the Demigod Realm, was launched as if hit by a speeding truck, flying into the passage:
"Cough~"
A splatter of blood burst from Tanzawa Yixiong's mouth the mont he hit the ground, uncontrollably gushing out.
Tanzawa Yixiong had no ti to check his injuries, only to see the Stone Gate, which Lin Yi had opened, slam shut again with a thunderous sound.
He stood up in horror, filled with worry:
"Saint Master!"
But when he returned to the Stone Gate, he found that the Eight Trigrams Array had been reactivated.
At this mont, he could only stand outside the Stone Gate anxiously, exclaiming:
"Please don't let anything happen!"
Just then, a voice ca from the entrance of the passage:
"Reporting to the City Lord!"
"There are several Chosen Ones outside the residence requesting an audience."
At this mont, Tanzawa Yixiong had no inclination to deal with those Chosen Ones, directly rejecting with a single word:
"Don't see them!"
But imdiately after, two figures appeared at the entrance of the passage.
A sinister voice suddenly echoed:
"What a commanding presence, City Lord!"
Tanzawa Yixiong looked angrily at the two n who appeared before him:
"You bastards!"
"Who let you in here?"
Just as Tanzawa Yixiong was about to make a move, the gloomy-faced man on the left suddenly pulled out an order token from his body:
"Does the City Lord recognize this?"
Seeing the vividly depicted eight snake heads on the order token, Tanzawa Yixiong was overwheld with fear, exclaiming:
"The Eight-headed Order!"
He looked in disbelief at the sickly-looking man:
"You..."
However, at this mont, Orochi had a solemn expression as he pushed Tanzawa Yixiong aside, looking at the Stone Gate behind him with its strange patterns:
"Soone went inside?"
Tanzawa Yixiong's heart trembled slightly:
"Y-Yes, yes."
Orochi's expression changed:
"Who?"
Faced with the terrifying existence like Orochi from legends, even though it seed his current strength was lesser than his own,
Tanzawa Yixiong did not dare to conceal anything:
"It's the Saint Master."
But what followed next shocked Tanzawa Yixiong.
Before him, Orochi, revered as the Guardian God within their He Clan, respectfully addressed the Chosen One beside him:
"Inside is the sealed Eight-Clawed Fire Python, and the seal on the door was placed by the Celestial Clan back then."
Saying this, an involuntary look of astonishnt flashed across Orochi's face as he continued:
"I wonder if Venerable you know of the Celestial Clan?"
"The Celestial Clan?"
Standing next to Orochi, Yamada Miki was gazing intently at the strange Qin Trigram Array on the door, lost in thought:
"How could I not know them?"
As if recalling sothing infuriating, blue veins bulged on Yamada Miki's forehead as he muttered to himself:
"To be honest, I should thank them!"
"If not for them, how would I have walked down the path I tread today?"
