Ji Tongtian was indeed worthy of being the city lord of the largest city in the Central Plains. He immediately understood the meaning of the words.
He immediately guessed that this bronze door was the entrance to the forbidden land.
One must know that Ji Tongtian was not Su Yi. Su Yi had only obtained the heavenly notification after activating this forbidden land.
City Lord Ji’s exclamation had also startled the elders. Their eyes were burning as they followed the direction of city Lord Ji’s gaze and saw the stone pillar.
At the same time, they also saw the words carved on the stone pillar.
All of them looked at each other and nodded their heads. After which, under the shocked gazes of Su Yi and City Lord Ji, they led their troops and entered the teleportation gate.
What was laughable was that because these old men were trying to hide their strength, the subordinates in their group were now so sparse that they did not even have the numbers they had when they first arrived.
Amongst them, the most laughable was the disciple led by the third elder of the Sword Pavilion. There was actually only one left. If it was not for the fact that this disciple had the strength of the late stage of the foundation establishment realm, he would probably have died in the demon beast horde.
After the elders and the others entered, he looked at the city lord and asked indifferently.
“City Lord, don’t you want to enter the forbidden land to explore?”
The city lord actually shook his head and asked indifferently, “no, it’s enough for me to be able to resolve the matter of the demon qi erosion. Moreover, there are so many things in the Central Plains City that are waiting for me to deal with, so I won’t get involved.”
Hearing this, Su Yi was slightly surprised. He did not expect the city lord to be so indifferent in front of the forbidden land. Did he not want to explore the forbidden land and get lucky?
In fact, Su Yi was wrong. Which cultivator did not want to explore the forbidden land and get lucky?
However, his position as the city lord of Central Plains City meant that he could only stay in the foundation establishment realm for the rest of his life. Therefore, no matter how many opportunities there were, it did not matter to him.
However, Ji Tongtian still looked at the cultivator of the city lord’s mansion behind him and said indifferently, “Ji Yan, you still have a long way to go. If you want to explore this forbidden land, then go ahead.”
The cultivator called Ji Yan by City Lord Ji bowed to Ji Tongtian and said respectfully, “City Lord, I… I want to go!”
After hesitating for a while, Ji Yan seemed to have made up his mind. He looked at Ji Tongtian.
“Yes, go,” Ji Tongtian nodded his head in gratification and said.
Ji Yan’s eyes were filled with determination as he stepped into the bronze teleportation door.
At this moment, Su Yi was a little curious. Since City Lord Ji did not go, why did he send someone to go?
As though he saw the doubt in Su Yi’s eyes, Ji Tongtian looked elsewhere and slowly said, “Ji Yan is an outstanding disciple of my clan. However, I don’t want him to accept the position of city lord. His future shouldn’t be limited to this great desolate region. Therefore, Su Yi, if you see him in any danger in the forbidden land, I hope that you can lend a hand.”
When he finished speaking, he looked at Su Yi.
“City Lord, are you so certain that I will definitely enter that forbidden land?” he raised his brows and asked indifferently.
Ji Tongtian looked at him and said with a faint smile, “you will go, won’t you?”
At this moment, Ji Tongtian’s gaze was looking at Su Yi. There was an unknown meaning in his eyes.
Su Yi helplessly shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently, “forget it, forget it. Since City Lord Ji has already said so, if he really encounters any danger, I will help him. City Lord Ji, you must remember that you owe me a favor.”
He waved his hand and walked into the forbidden ground’s door. Immediately, his figure disappeared.
In the valley within the Demon Subduing Mountain range, only Ji Tongtian was left. He looked at the bronze door with the teleportation vortex and left behind a faint sentence.
“I wish all of you good luck…”
Following that, Ji Tongtian’s figure left this place.
…
At this moment, in the forbidden land of the great desolate.
This place was a vast plain. Although there were occasional mounds, there was not any strange terrain.
It was just that this forbidden land was quite desolate. There were not any trees embellishing it, nor were there any grasslands covering it.
At a glance, it was a cracked land. The air here was filled with a strange stench from time to time, making people feel nauseous.
In that ghostly desolate place, a vortex slowly formed, and a human figure walked out.
Su Yi, who had just walked out of the vortex, immediately felt nauseous. The pungent and strange smell in the air, as well as the dizziness and distortion caused by the teleportation, made him retch a little.
Fortunately, he immediately circulated his true essence to suppress those uncomfortable feelings, and immediately felt much better.
He swept his eyes over and discovered that he was in this desolate land as he muttered, “this is the forbidden land? It’s really big.”
He looked into the distance and realized that he could not see the end and there were no landmarks. If it was someone with a bad sense of direction, they would probably never be able to get around this place.
At this moment, a puff of white smoke came out from his shoulder and Little Xie’s tiny figure appeared on his shoulder.
Little Xie looked at his position, and a trace of nostalgia flashed in his eyes. Then, she said indifferently, “big scoundrel, you’ve entered this place.”
Hearing this, he nodded lightly, and did not notice the strange expression in Little Xie’s eyes.
He looked into the distance, then turned his head to look at Little Xie and asked indifferently, “Little Xie, where do you think the five elements earth veins are?”
His goal was very clear. He had come in to find the five elements essence. After all, he still needed this thing to improve his cultivation method.
Little Xie rolled her eyes at him and said, “it’s true that you’re a big idiot. Earth veins are definitely underground.”
“Eh?”
He was choked speechless by Little Xie. That was not what he wanted to ask.
Little Xie narrowed her eyes slightly as if she was sensing something. Then, she pointed in a direction and said, “you can go in this direction.”
“The five elements earth veins are over here?” he looked in the direction that Little Xie was pointing and asked.
Who knew that the latter would roll her eyes at him and say, “no, I didn’t sense anything of the sort.”
“Then what are you…”
“Are you stupid? If you don’t move, how can I help you find it?”
…
Then, he carried Little Xie and sped across the desolate land.
He would change directions from time to time along the way.
Moreover, he discovered that there were actually demon beasts in the forbidden land. It was a kind of soil-eating lizard. However, the realm of this kind of demon beast was very low, only around the early stage of Qi condensation.
In Little Xie’s words, it was very rare for demon beasts to be born in this forbidden land with extremely low concentration of spiritual energy.
After searching around like this, three days passed in a flash.
When he arrived at a terrain with a huge crevice in the ground, he actually saw a human figure.
This human figure was holding a long sword.
