Chapter 1030: Retracing the Past, Gaining Insight into the Key

In the days that followed, everyone from the Haoran Sect remained stationed at the barrier, temporarily encamped as they sought methods to break through and gathered useful information.

Given the congregation of the entire sect at this location, Jiang Chengxuan and others found no reason to rush.

Their current task was simply to search for opportunities within the Immortal cave abode. Naturally, they couldn’t overlook such a treasure trove, even if it required time to break.

Jiang Chengxuan quickly set up arrays around the perimeter of the area to deter the relentless Daolord Skeleton and Daolord Phantom Ghost, while incidentally blocking others trying to stir trouble.

Typically, any strange beast or cultivator from other sects who came looking for opportunities would wisely leave upon encountering the arrays.

Intimidated by the terrifying aura unleashed during the battle that day, few dared to cause trouble.

However, there were those who persisted, attempting to sneak into Jiang Chengxuan’s array, only to be immediately repelled by Shen Ruyan with a thunderous attack.

…

At this moment, Jiang Chengxuan sat cross-legged in front of the barrier, radiating with a mysterious, auspicious light.

The Profound Dao Disc hovered before him, invisible forces of deduction spreading from his body to the barrier above.

Soon, the figures of an emaciated old man in a white robe and a green-haired old man in a green robe slowly appeared in Jiang Chengxuan’s mind.

These two were Daolord Skeleton and Daolord Phantom Ghost who had previously attempted to break the barrier, leaving their aura at this very spot.

With the aid of the seventh-level Heavenly Calculation Technique and the Profound Dao Disc, Jiang Chengxuan was now able to deduce the karma about the Mahayana Daolord using some residual aura.

Although the figures of Daolord Skeleton and Daolord Phantom Ghost manifested by the Heavenly Calculation Technique were somewhat illusory, everything they had done here was clear to Jiang Chengxuan.

This was his first attempt at using the Heavenly Calculation Technique Power to directly deduce the karma of the Mahayana Daolord, and it was unexpectedly successful.

He was very satisfied with the result of this exploration.

Although both Daolord Skeleton and Daolord Phantom Ghost were severely injured at the time, it must be said that the Heavenly Calculation Technique had reached a transcendent level in this realm.

In the restoration by the Heavenly Calculation Technique, the methods deployed by Daolord Skeleton and Daolord Phantom Ghost at this location were revealed one by one.

First, the Daolord Phantom Ghost activated an array around the barrier, laying out a sinister altar.

Then, under his soul sacrifice, the altar glowed brightly with a mysterious and ethereal force shining upon him, blurring his figure as if covered by thousands of shadows.

Clearly, this was a secret technique from Ghost Hall, meant to transform the physical body into a phantom to traverse through the battier.

But as expected, this sacrificial power was of no use against the barrier.

No matter how much power the Daolord Phantom Ghost unleashed, making his figure nearly transparent, he couldn’t penetrate the barrier at all.

Without a doubt, such tricky methods had already been anticipated by the creator of this barrier.

Moreover, the power of this barrier had evidently surpassed the level of a Mahayana Daolord.

The initial attempt by the Daolord Phantom Ghost to breach the barrier failed, and then it was the turn of Daolord Skeleton.

Daolord Skeleton’s white robe fluttered without wind, and a segment of white bone slowly emerged from his sleeve, writhing.

Segment after segment of white bone emerged from his sleeve, eventually forming a centipede-like skeleton five feet long, with a pair of sinister fangs at each end, possessing a certain power to break arrays.

Clearly, this was a sinister creature he had collected and nurtured, naturally endowed with the ability to break through arrays, attempting to bite through the barrier with this creature.

Thus, under the command of Daolord Skeleton, this white bone centipede clung to the barrier, and soon, the fangs at both ends began to gnaw relentlessly.

Under the gnawing of this sinister creature, Jiang Chengxuan saw ripples emanating in the void, and a sudden burst of array power erupted from the barrier, trapping the fangs of the white bone centipede within it.

But before Daolord Skeleton and Daolord Phantom Ghost could rejoice, the barrier closed again, and the fangs of the white bone centipede were rendered immovable.

In the end, Daolord Skeleton had no choice but to remove the fangs to retrieve the white bone centipede, and his plan to forcibly break the barrier through brute force thus ended in failure.

Jiang Chengxuan simply observed with an expressionless face, as the Heavenly Calculation Technique replayed the events. Daolord Skeleton and Daolord Phantom Ghost had exhausted all their methods, only to sigh in resignation.

Until they became aware of the presence of Xie Xiangyao and another person.

The recollection ended there. After watching all the scenes unfold, Jiang Chengxuan also began to feel a headache coming on.

This particular barrier seemed impervious to both brute force and cunning methods, completely unaffected by any tricks or strength.

Despite scouring the surrounding area, he found no clues whatsoever, and it seemed as though they had walked into a dead end.

For the moment, Jiang Chengxuan could think of no good strategies and thus decided to share the results of his deductions with Qin Shenwu and the others, hoping for some unexpected insights.

“It seems this barrier can only be opened using a method it recognizes,” Qin Shenwu slowly stated after hearing about the actions of Daolord Skeleton and Daolord Phantom Ghost.

“This barrier is not likely to be impenetrable; otherwise, with the abilities of its creator, we probably wouldn’t have been able to discover it here. He wouldn’t have gone to the trouble to reveal it.”

Hearing this, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan nodded in agreement. They both felt the same way.

Every barrier has its purpose, whether it is for protection, testing, or inheritance—Jiang Chengxuan had encountered such barriers in the Immortal cave abode.

But if it were meant for concealment, to prevent other cultivators from discovering it, why would this barrier actively emit an aura to attract people?

Thus, this barrier was most likely an inheritance barrier, opening only when someone with the right fate arrives.

Qin Shenwu’s words sparked a flash of inspiration in Jiang Chengxuan’s mind.

He and Shen Ruyan suddenly had a moment of realization. The fated ones were those who possessed something recognized by the barrier, and within the Immortal cave abode, they had indeed encountered an item capable of proving their legitimacy.

Exchanging a glance, they both saw the mutual understanding in each other’s eyes, and the next moment, they materialized the Dao rules of Life and Death.
