Chapter 1819 The Five Directions Tomb Opens the Heavenly Prison

The blue-robed thief deliberately left his words unclear. I said in a deep voice, "You're saying you brought me here to protect Zhao Yuezhu?"

"Just based on this stone door? You think you can make us retreat?"

The blue-robed thief nodded, "No one can enter this stone door."

"There are at least a dozen spatial nodes on it. If you can't calculate the only space leading to the tomb, you'll be torn to pieces by the power of space as soon as you touch the stone door."

"Back then, I calculated in front of this gate for a whole month without any clue. In the end, I had to take a risk, forcing the inn's tenants to use their lives to test the location of the passage."

"That's how we exposed our whereabouts!"

The blue-robed thief took a deep breath, "You can't possibly hold out in the inn for too long. When Nangong Zhen regains control of the inn, even if you have heaven-defying skills, you won't be a match for him."

"Everyone, believe me, and leave quickly!"

Ling casually pulled a coffin nail from my backpack and shot it towards the gate in the distance.

The five-inch-long coffin nail shattered into several pieces in mid-air less than a foot away from the gate.

The coffin nail broke into at least five sections, which flew off in different directions, but not a single section landed on the ground. They all disappeared into thin air.

That stone door was indeed full of intersecting spatial nodes, just as the blue-robed thief had said.

Ling said, "Blue-robed thief, you can leave now and find the rest of your brothers. Leave Yin Yang Inn."

The blue-robed thief looked at Ling in disbelief, "You're saying you'll let me go?"

Ling slowly walked towards the stone door, "Even if you don't tell me, I know what this place is."

"This is the Wufang Tomb."

Ling's next words immediately made my heart sink, "Wufang Tomb opens the Heavenly Prison? Are you saying this is Liangjie Mountain?" (Two Realm Mountain)

Ling shook her head, "This is not Liangjie Mountain, but it is a place where the passage to the Heavenly Prison can be opened."

"The saying in the art of divination: 'Wufang Tomb opens the Heavenly Prison, the Greed Wolf God General will not return to court.' Originally, there was no second half. Later, someone just added something to confuse people."

"Yin Yang Inn is where the Wufang Tomb is located. Open the five secret tombs, activate the formation in the tombs, and you can penetrate space to connect the Heavenly Prison with the human world."

"The Reincarnation Saint Lord will lead the Heavenly Souls, bypass Liangjie Mountain, and go straight to Yin Yang Inn."

"Liangjie Mountain is easy to defend but difficult to attack. As long as the art of divination focuses its strength on defending the gap in Liangjie Mountain, there is at least a chance to stop the Heavenly Souls."

"Once Yin Yang Inn is breached, it will be completely open on all sides. Endless Heavenly Souls will spread around like a river bursting its banks. Even if the entire art of divination is brought here, there will be no way to encircle the Heavenly Souls. The art of divination will undoubtedly be defeated."

I couldn't help but gasp, "You knew all along that this was the Wufang Tomb?"

"No!" Ling shook her head, "I just came to this conclusion."

"If it hadn't been for your words reminding me, I'm afraid I wouldn't have guessed that this was where the Wufang Tomb was located."

I looked at Ling inexplicably, and the latter explained, "Blue-robed thief, when you told me to scatter the Emperor's bones to ashes, you said: you never believed that one person could save the world. And you couldn't understand why the art of divination would place its hope on the Emperor?"

"What if the Reincarnation Saint Lord also thinks this way?"

"Any ambitious hero would disdain to assassinate the other side's leader. Because they know that beheading the enemy's commander, although it can gain a temporary advantage, will bring endless trouble."

"Once the other side's leader dies, his subordinates will quickly disperse. After these people hide, it will take an unimaginable price to encircle and suppress them, and they may even become entangled with themselves endlessly."

"The best way is to completely defeat the other side in one battle. In that case, even if there are fish that slip through the net, they will not be able to cause any trouble."

"Zhu Zining might not think of this, but the Reincarnation Saint Lord, as a commander, must have such thoughts."

"Therefore, the purpose of concentrating all his power in the human world at Yin Yang Inn is not only not the Emperor's remains. He may even intentionally promote the Emperor's birth, and after he concentrates the power of the art of divination, he will wipe out all the practitioners in the world in one fell swoop."

Ling couldn't help but sigh here, "It's ridiculous, I never understood the key to this. It was only after seeing the tomb door that I came to this conclusion."

Cang Tianji comforted, "Even the wisest of people can make mistakes. You don't need to care too much."

The biggest reason why Ling didn't think of the Reincarnation Saint Lord's plan was because she was misled by the legends of the art of divination and her origin.

For hundreds of years, the legends have regarded the Emperor as the only savior of the art of divination.

After hearing it too many times, people naturally regard the legend as hope.

I looked at the tomb door in the distance and said to Ling, "If what you said is true, then the Emperor chose Yin Yang Inn as his place of return in order to prevent the Reincarnation Saint Lord from opening another battlefield?"

"Probably!" Ling said in a low voice, "I don't know now whether the Emperor foresaw this or whether it was just a coincidence that he left himself in the inn."

Ling suddenly turned her head and said, "Li Po, now the responsibility of how to deal with the crisis falls on you again."
