It took Chen Mu and the White Turtle more than five hours to reach the location sensed by the Talisman Puppet spider.
Thump thump... swish!
As Chen Mu's Dharma Power surged, the soil in front of him fell away, revealing a rusty bronze gate.
"Hehe, it definitely looks like it was Old Cai's doing."
Chen Mu, try to open this door.
Seeing the design of the bronze gate, the White Turtle already had a good idea of what to expect and happily urged Chen Mu to hurry up.
" Grandpa Turtle, aren't you Senior Brother Cai's good friend? Don't you know how to open this door?"
Chen Mu looked at the White Turtle and asked in confusion.
"Hmph! Old Cai is probably too afraid of being bullied in the past; he doesn't trust anyone but himself."
Don't tell me I don't know how to open his secret room; even his old flames probably don't know.
However, he trusts his master completely. "If you try using his methods, you should be able to break these array restrictions."
The White Turtle explained, a resentful expression on its face.
"Alright then! I'll give it a try."
Chen Mu's right eye shone brightly, illuminating the bronze gate. His Biological Intelligent Brain began to work rapidly, deciphering how to open the bronze gate.
"As expected of an extraordinary barrier, worthy of being a restriction set up by the gods."
The restrictions on this bronze gate are not structurally complex, but they are covered with a large number of Ancient Runes. These Ancient Runes are extremely powerful, and each rune contains many interpretations. If Chen Mu were to try to break them with brute force, it would take decades and he might not succeed.
Fortunately, Chen Mu saw many familiar Ancient Runes on it, and the style of the runes was almost the same as his own. Cai Gen was indeed worthy of being his senior brother.
"Give me three days, and I should be able to break this restriction."
Chen Mu gave an approximate timeframe, since this was a divine restriction, and if Chen Mu hadn't possessed the inheritance of the Rune Ancestor, he wouldn't have been able to break it so quickly.
"Alright! Go ahead and do it Mingye and I will stay here and make sure you're not disturbed."
The White Turtle nodded.
There is still relatively plenty of time, because the time flow in the Tomb of the Gods is only about one-tenth of that in the Pan Emperor Continent. The three great gods have given Chen Mu three days to summon Chen Mu to the Haotian Imperial Palace. By the time they are all ready to enter the Tomb of the Gods Tomb of the Gods, they will have at least twenty days inside. Spending three or four days here is not a problem at all.
Chen Mu released the spaceship from his storage ring. He no longer cared about the consumption of Spirit Stone and used the supercomputers inside the warship to enhance his computing power and begin to break the restrictions.
The pit they dug this time was at an angle. Mingye stayed outside the pit entrance the whole time. The White Turtle was worried that Mingye's strength was not enough to deal with the mutated creatures here, so it switched places with Mingye.
Then the White Turtle stood guard at the cave entrance, while Mingye sat cross-legged beside Chen Mu, protecting him closely.
The next day, outside the pit where Chen Mu was.
Glug... glug...!
A terrifying creature with a tiger's head, eight legs, and skin covered in snake scales has found its way here.
When Chen Mu broke the seal, there was a strong fluctuation of magical Dharma Power. It was clear that this terrifying creature was attracted by Chen Mu's Spiritual Power, which is why it came here.
The eight-legged monster sniffed at the cave entrance, confirming that Chen Mu was inside the pit. However, its size was too large to squeeze into the pit.
After several attempts, he let out an angry roar and could only linger at the cave entrance, unwilling to leave.
"Tsk tsk, I thought the creatures here would be tough to deal with, but they're just mindless idiots. How boring!"
The White Turtle finally appeared, slowly and calmly walking towards the eight-legged monster.
Roar~~!
Seeing a living being emerge, the eight-legged monster paid no heed, opening its Taotie and lunging at the White Turtle.
With a loud bang, the eight-legged monster's head was severed by the White Turtle's cane and flew into the distance.
However, the eight-legged monster was not dead at this moment. Losing its head did not seem to have any effect on it. It raised one leg and slammed it hard against the White Turtle.
With a snap, blood splattered everywhere.
Knowing that severing the limb was useless, the White Turtle simply smashed the leg to pieces.
After suffering repeated setbacks, the eight-legged monster finally realized it had met its match and retreated rapidly, turning and fleeing.
"Since you're here, don't leave."
The White Turtle worried that this mutated creature might have other companions, and that letting it go back could cause trouble, so it leaped up and chased after the eight-legged monster.
Boom! Crack!
The stronger the energy used while moving through these mountains, the more lightning attacks it seemed to attract. Fortunately, the White Turtle was not afraid of the lightning here at all. He withstood a large number of lightning attacks and caught up with the eight-legged monster.
The eight-legged monster was incredibly resilient; even with only one head remaining, it managed to escape. The White Turtle had no choice but to smash all of the monster's parts into a pile of mangled flesh before finally defeating it.
"What a hassle!"
This monster's true combat strength was probably only at the Peak Emperor Level, not even touching the threshold of the Saint Level. The White Turtle felt very frustrated that it took so much effort to defeat it.
However, he didn't take it to heart, and leaped back to the entrance of the pit to continue guarding the spot.
Two more days passed quickly.
The entrance to the pit is no longer peaceful. On average, every incense stick's time, the White Turtle encounters a mutated monster charging towards him, which is extremely annoying.
" Chen Mu, speed up."
The more monsters die, the more monsters are attracted. I'm starting to feel overwhelmed."
Although the monsters that came were all at the Emperor Level, their sheer number was overwhelming. In this chaotic space, the cultivators' recovery abilities were also affected. Even with the White Turtle's profound power, it was impossible for them to fight indefinitely.
Urged on by the White Turtle, Chen Mu quickened his pace. After another half hour, a chive-shaped pattern appeared on the bronze gate. Chen Mu stepped forward, used his Dharma Power to condense a sickle, and gently made a cut.
With a clang, the bronze gate opened on its own, revealing a deep, dark passage.
" Senior Brother Cai, I didn't mean to fleece you. It's just that cutting you off is the optimal solution with the mechanism you designed."
After breaking the restriction, Chen Mu muttered to himself helplessly.
Perhaps it was Cai Gen's nature, but the rune restrictions he designed were as incredibly strong as he himself. The fastest way for Chen Mu to break the restrictions was to cut them.
Although you can enter the secret chamber after the cut, the entrance is expected to close after more than an hour.
Chen Mu quickly beckoned the White Turtle in. He left a small array to block the entrance to the cave, and then he and the White Turtle Mingye rushed into the secret chamber.
