Yan Jie sent mana to the two women while resisting the heat waves inside the cave. The two were doing it at the same time, and the mana consumed was amazing. If it were an ordinary cultivator of the fourth level of Qi Refining, he would have been exhausted.

Fortunately, Yan Jie practiced "The Dead Tree Fighting Spring" several times, which made his magic power much deeper than that of the same level cultivators. In terms of the depth of his magic power, he was no less than the peak of Qi refining at this time.

Under Yan Jie's protection, Qian Jue and Liu Ruyan suppressed their shyness and walked towards the depths of the cave first.

Along the way, the number of mummies on the stairs became more and more, and the clothes they wore were different. Yan Jie even noticed that several of them were wearing clothes from the Liu family, but when she looked at Liu Ruyan, her expression was calm, which made Yan Jie secretly admire him.

The three of them went deeper into the ground for more than a hundred feet, and finally arrived at the bottom of the cave. Opposite the three of them was an upright mountain wall, more than three feet high. In the center of the mountain wall, a stone gate stood, which was extremely thick and had runes engraved on the surface.

Yan Jie wiped and pushed it, but the entire stone door did not move at all. He couldn't help frowning.

You should know that although Yan Jie has not practiced the art of body refining, his body strength is not inferior to that of ordinary foundation-building cultivators after being tempered by the thunder tribulation. Under this push, there are at least hundreds of kilograms of strength, but the stone gate has no reaction at all.

Yan Jie turned around and asked Liu Ruyan: "Looking at the thickness of this stone door, it cannot be opened without a thousand pounds of force. When you came in with Zhang Xian, was he who opened the stone door?"

Liu Ruyan shook her head and said, "When I came in, the stone door was already open. As for how Zhang Xian opened the stone door, I don't know. In fact, I have been here more than once, but this is the first time I saw the stone door closed..."

Yan Jie nodded and asked again: "Then what does it look like behind this stone gate?"

Liu Ruyan recalled and said, "Behind the stone gate is a huge lava pool. The spiritual medicine grows in the lava, and it looks like it is not an ordinary thing... However, when I came in, it was not so hot. Even if I stood next to the lava, it was still tolerated. Now the temperature in the cave is abnormal, so be careful!"

Yan Jie nodded without saying a word and began to observe the patterns on the surface of the stone door.

At first, Yan Jie did not take these patterns seriously, but after a closer look, Yan Jie realized that the patterns on the stone gate were a brilliant forbidden array!

He told his appearance to the two daughters, and Liu Ruyan and Qian Jue couldn't help but frown.

Liu Ruyan was delicate and looked embarrassed when she saw Yan Jie's face, and said, "Although the ancestors of the Zhang family were once monks, they had already fallen for many years. Although the Zhang family has been firmly in the first place among the five major families in Linshan City for so many years, they rely on worldly power. I have never heard of any connection between them and the cultivation world. The formation on the stone gate should not be from the Zhang family..."

Qian Jue sighed and said, "Now it seems that there is an unknown danger hidden behind this stone gate..."

Yan Jie shook his head and said, "All hesitates, there is no reason to go back empty-handed. The spiritual medicine behind the stone gate is likely to be related to the Demon Lord's plan. I can't feel at ease if I don't find it out..."

Qian Jue had to admit that what Yan Jie said was the truth. If the Demon Lord’s purpose was not investigated clearly, then this trip to the cave would be abandoned halfway.

Liu Ruyan couldn't help asking, "Young Master, how long will it take if the ban is broken now?"

Yan Jie took out five sky blue array plates from the storage bag and said, "The sealing formation on this stone gate is very clever. If it is a violent crack, it is afraid that it will not be successful for three days and three nights. However, my "Qing Emperor Qi-seeing Technique" has made a breakthrough now, and it should not be difficult to find the weakness of this formation. As long as you find the weakness, you can break the formation in one hour!"

This is not his bragging. Since he had the Dragon Whale Array Plate, Yan Jie has entered the formation in it if he has something to do.

His formation uses very few runes, but it is very efficient to operate. Among them, there are some tentative magic arrays designed specifically for breaking the formation. If you use the "Qing Emperor Qi-Watching Technique" to observe the qi of the formation, Yan Jie is indeed very sure to find out its flaws.

He waved to the formation plate

A few magic tricks were inserted into it, and the five array plates suddenly buzzed and trembled. The surface light was bright, illuminating the entire underground cave.

Yan Jie threw the array plate into the air, and five array plates were pressed against the mountain wall outside the stone gate one by one, as if attracted by a magnet, and steadily surrounded the stone gate.

Then, Yan Jie took out a new trick order, and this green token has now become the control hub of most of his formations.

Yan Jie entered a magic trick into the token. The magic array that Yan Jie wrote to the array disk in advance was immediately stimulated. A faint blue light curtain was released from the array disk and wrapped the entire stone gate in.

"Stinky Taoist, what are you doing? Can you break the ban on the stone door by putting a layer of light curtain?"

Seeing that Yan Jie had been busy for a long time, Qian Jue became curious when he only added a blue light curtain to the stone gate.

Yan Jie smiled and explained: "This is called the "Trojan Horse Scheme", which is a method of breaking the formation that I have learned after killing the black owl."

""Trojan Horse Scheme"?" Qian Jue and Liu Ruyan called out in unison. They were both knowledgeable people, but they had never heard of any strategy called "Trojan Horse Scheme". The name is strange and confusing.

"You were all present in the last battle in Linshan City. You should know how the Black Owl cracked my formation?" Anyway, it would take some time to crack the formation. Yan Jie saw that the two girls were interested, so he explained it to them.

Qian Jue nodded and said, "I'm still talking! The black owl broke your formation in just two moves, which made me almost think I was going to die on the Wangting..."

Yan Jie shook his head and said, "The outer protective magic array was originally used to lure the enemy. The purpose was to make him relax his vigilance and fall into my plum blossom exorcism array! When the black owl fell into the plum blossom exorcism array, he began to break the formation wildly..."

"No..." Liu Ruyan asked in confusion: "I remember that after the black owl fell into the plum blossom formation, he had no power to fight back. He was killed by the young master with thousands of cannons on the spot. When did he break the formation?"

Yan Jie shook his head and said, "The situation was critical at that time, and you didn't notice it! In fact, after the black owl was trapped, he kept attacking the formation, but was blocked. But in just a moment, more than a dozen top-grade spirit stones in the formation were consumed, accounting for half of the inventory in Linshan City!"
