Martial Master

“You're saying that someone came through this array gate to here around thirty years ago?”

Qin Chen gasped in shock. According to what the big black cat said, if a master from the celestial realm really did invade the Tianwu Continent thirty years ago, then what was their purpose?

Moreover, why has there never been any mention of this on Tianwu Continent? A powerhouse like that could not possibly remain unknown.

“There’s no mistake.” The big black cat furrowed its brows and said, “This array gate shows signs of having been opened, but the traces are very faint. If one doesn’t look closely, it cannot be noticed. Moreover, strangely enough, the other party repaired this gate again, covering up the aura of Tianwu Continent, so that when they entered and exited this gate, the aura of Tianwu Continent wouldn’t leak into the world on the other side.”

Qin Chen looked at the big black cat with some surprise. Could it be that the other party was a celestial master from Tianwu Continent? Otherwise, how would an external master cover up the aura of Tianwu Continent?

And if such a person really existed, why was there completely no news about them on Tianwu Continent?

Qin Chen felt a sense of unease in his heart. Although the other party currently showed no malice, who knew if they truly meant no harm?

“Big black cat, can this formation still allow people to pass through now?” Qin Chen asked in a deep voice, while the Ancient Venerable beside him was also very eager. If they could use this to go to the celestial realm, it would be their most coveted dream.

“It can be passed through, but none of you can do it right now. At least wait until your cultivation recovers to the Holy Realm, then there will be a chance to pass through this gate.”

Qin Chen nodded. As long as they could pass through the gate, it would be fine.

Qin Chen was sure that his level of formation had already surpassed the ninth-level imperial category, but there was still some distance to the Holy level. At least he couldn’t tell whether anyone had passed through this gate, while the big black cat could see it at a glance.

In some areas of experience, he was still unable to compare with the big black cat, which had lived for so many years.

However, leaving this gate here made Qin Chen somewhat uneasy.

He asked everyone to step aside and began to set up various restrictions around it. Although he currently had no way to know who had passed through, as long as he set up a restriction here, whenever someone came in the future, it would definitely trigger his perception.

Besides that, it was clear that Shangguan Xi'er and the others were also determined to find this place. After he set up the restrictions and formations, even if they found this place, they wouldn’t be able to enter the array gate in a short time.

While Qin Chen was arranging the formation, he was also deducing the array gate and restrictions before him, as well as thinking about how to prevent the aura here from leaking out.

At first, Qin Chen felt a bit muddled about the array gate before him, but gradually, as he immersed himself completely, he began to see some of the mysteries of the array gate, and he was immediately amazed.

The arrangement of this array gate was extremely terrifying, at least at the Holy level, which left Qin Chen in awe. Moreover, he gained immense insights and observed that there were indeed newly added restrictions outside the array gate, whose purpose was indeed to prevent the aura of Tianwu Continent from leaking into the world on the opposite side.

This kind of restriction was very secretive. No wonder Qin Chen didn’t notice it at first. Now, he gradually recognized the extraordinary nature of this restriction, which far exceeded his current level. If he could thoroughly understand this restriction, he would definitely see a multiple increase in methods of concealing aura.

However, as Qin Chen gained more understanding of this restriction, a trace of doubt suddenly appeared in his eyes, which gradually turned to surprise.
