"It's done!"
Ji Tianxing stopped and looked at the space door in front of him with a satisfied smile.
After confirming that there was no one around and that he hadn't alerted the guards on the island, he stepped in.
"Swoosh!"
He passed through the space door and entered the defensive divine formation. The door of light immediately disappeared.
Once he entered the divine formation, he felt much more comfortable.
At least, the interior of the divine formation wasn't as hot as the outside, making it hard to breathe.
The temperature here was more normal, and the air was filled with divine power.
He maintained his invisible state and tried his best to restrain his aura as he carefully made his way to the center of the island.
While he was moving forward, he was silently calculating in his heart.
"According to the information I gathered in Youdu and Yuwen Ji's memories, there aren't many guards on this island.
There were only two Samsara Divine Generals, twenty Divine King experts, and two hundred Divine Lord realm guards stationed here all year round.
After all, the passage between the two worlds isn't usually opened, and no one enters or exits here.
The guards stationed here are actually very free and have nothing to do. Most of the time, they are cultivating in seclusion. "
Those Upper Divine Lord Realm guards, no matter how many there were, Ji Tianxing did not take them to heart either.
Although the two Divine Generals of Samsara and 20 Divine Kings could pose a threat to him, he wasn't afraid.
What he was really afraid of was the Blood Prison Marshal whose whereabouts were unknown.
That guy was the same as Commander Minghe, a Ninth Level Divine King.
To Ji Tianxing, if he faced either of them, he could only be beaten up or run away. He had no chance of winning.
He tried his best, but he could only keep his life.
"I hope the Blood Prison Marshal isn't here and is obediently staying in Youdu City …" Ji Tianxing prayed silently.
Fifteen minutes later, he finally reached the center of the island and arrived at the guards' encampment.
There were palaces made of black stone all around. Not far ahead was the plaza and the sacrificial altar of time and space.
Ji Tianxing didn't rashly enter the encampment. He first circled around the periphery and observed the situation silently.
In the end, the twelve palaces were quiet. There were the auras of guards and Divine Kings inside, but no one was moving.
That plaza was also silent. There were twenty Upper Divine Lord guards guarding the north and south ends of the plaza, motionless like statues.
Upon closer inspection, one would discover that although they were standing upright, their eyes were closed, and they were all silently cultivating.
"These guys are really hardworking. Even when they're on duty, they don't waste any time.
From the looks of it, they really have too much free time. "
Ji Tianxing muttered in his heart. He slowly stepped into the garrison's encampment and silently approached the square.
His method of concealing his aura was very brilliant. When he stepped onto the square and walked towards the altar in the middle, the guards at the north and south ends of the square did not notice him at all.
He quietly came to the bottom of the altar and looked at the eight stone pillars around the altar. He carefully observed the divine patterns and diagrams on the pillars.
If an ordinary person saw this scene, they would most likely think that the eight huge stone pillars were just for decoration.
But in reality, these eight stone pillars were the key to opening the altar.
The effects and functions of the altar, as well as the method to open it, were all hidden in the divine patterns and diagrams on the stone pillars.
Only by finding the correct solution among the billions of patterns and diagrams could the altar be opened and the spacetime passage opened.
This was undoubtedly another great test for Ji Tianxing.
At the very least, it would take him three to five days.
At the very least, it was very likely that it would take him one to two months.
Of course, there was another possibility.
Even if he spent three to five months, he might not be able to deduce the method to open the altar.
After all, this altar and the eight stone pillars were the handiwork of the God Of The Underworld.
A thousand years ago, when Kenshin came here from the Dragon Realm, this place was not like this.
At that time, there was no altar, no plaza, no eight stone pillars, and no surrounding palaces.
This was a barren island, and in the middle of the island, there was a gate made of huge stones.
There was a whirlpool of white light in the gate. That was the spacetime passage.
Back then, several ancient clans of the Reincarnation Island took turns guarding the stone gate.
Gods and dragons who wanted to travel between the two realms only needed to obtain the permission of the gatekeeper and pay a high fee.
But now, the spacetime passage was hidden and sealed with a divine array.
Ji Tianxing wanted to know why the God Of The Underworld did this.
Why did he seal the spacetime passage and cut off the two realms?
… …
Time passed silently.
The reef island was hidden deep in the magma sea. The sun and moon could not be seen, and it was difficult to tell whether it was day or night.
This place was always the same color. The sky was dyed dark red by the light of the fire.
An entire day passed.
Ji Tianxing was still focused on observing the stone pillars, staring at the dense array patterns and diagrams.
Occasionally, he would walk around and observe different stone pillars from different angles.
However, he still could not understand how the divine array operated, let alone find a way to open it.
During this time, the twenty guards guarding the two ends of the plaza did not notice anything unusual.
They were like stone statues, standing in place and cultivating with their eyes closed.
In the evening, two Godkings had walked around the palace in the north-west. They seemed to be discussing something.
But they did not even look at the plaza, nor did they notice anything unusual.
This made Ji Tianxing feel much more at ease.
He had not been exposed even now, which meant that the guards stationed here were all ordinary Godkings.
At the very least, the Blood Prison Marshal was definitely not here!
To him, this was the best news.
As the days passed, the garrison was as calm as ever.
Ji Tianxing had also observed for a few days. He had memorized the formation patterns and patterns on the eight stone pillars without missing a single detail.
He finally did not have to walk back and forth to observe the stone pillars.
He sat beneath the altar with his eyes closed in contemplation, and he repeatedly deduced and calculated in his mind.
Five days later, he finally made some progress and found a way to open the divine array.
Eight days later, after thousands of deductions and predictions, he analyzed the way to open the divine array and found a breakthrough.
Unfortunately, he could not cast a spell to try to open the divine array.
If he did, he would definitely be able to quickly verify whether it was right or wrong and find the correct way to open the array.
As a result, he could only repeatedly deduce and predict in his mind and choose two different methods.
Unknowingly, half a month passed.
Ji Tianxing was immersed in his deductions and calculations, forgetting the passage of time.
The garrison did not change much. It was still quiet.
During this time, Divine General Heaven War, who had gone to the abyss entrance to investigate, returned to the garrison alone.
Clearly, he had not been able to find the reason and result, so he returned gloomily.
After returning to the garrison and entering the eastern palace, he did not come out again.
