After entering the ruins, Huo Hai found that there was not a single person inside. Judging from the dust on the ground, it seemed no one had come here for a very long time. Yet Huo Hai remained extremely cautious, not daring to lower his guard in the slightest.
"Hmph, there really is something wrong. They still haven't given up after all these years; there are people everywhere outside, so I knew the inside couldn't be this simple." Huo Hai sneered.

If an ordinary person failed to notice them and simply stepped forward, the Celestial Star Sect would immediately know. Then they could close the jar and catch the turtle—no one would be able to escape.
