Reverse War Surpass Immortal

Chapter 1214 - 1074: Laying a False Trail

The Netherworld Demon General suddenly let out a cold laugh, and this laugh immediately made the warriors present feel a shiver down their spines.Everyone immediately sensed that something was about to happen.

"Ah! Ah! Ah!"

Almost as if to confirm everyone's suspicions, the next moment, they saw many warriors letting out chilling screams.

The warriors who let out those chilling screams were engulfed in black flames, unable to expel them from their bodies.

Now, they felt the black flames burning every cell on their bodies, causing them to scream in agony.

"If you don't surrender, you will become my minions, and you will turn into corpses!"

At that moment, the Netherworld Demon General spoke coldly.

Duan Gujin and the others heard this, and their faces changed dramatically, knowing corpse transformation was a truly terrifying thing.

"We surrender! We want to live! Friend, whatever demands you have, just say them. As long as they're not too difficult, we'll agree!"

At that moment, Shi Potian urgently spoke up.

The other warriors, hearing Shi Potian speak of surrender first, immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

The warriors present, their bodies all touched by the Netherworld Demon General's black flames, had no choice but to surrender.

"Since you are willing to surrender, that's the best! You came here wanting nothing more than to find treasures, and I can tell you, there are indeed many treasures here! If you find those treasures, you won't have to worry for the rest of your lives!"

The Netherworld Demon General said generously.

The warriors present, including Duan Gujin and Shi Potian, felt uncomfortable inside upon hearing the Netherworld Demon General's words.

"You don't need to know who I am. If you want to unravel the mysteries of this place, you must work for me! Since you have come here, you should have found things on the corpses ahead; I want you to hand over three small objects among them!" the Netherworld Demon General suddenly said.

Upon hearing these words, everyone immediately focused their eyes on Shi Potian.

They had all witnessed Shi Potian taking those small objects from the corpses and then putting them into his storage ring.

"Is it these three items you want?"

Shi Potian immediately took out three small objects from his storage ring and handed them to the Netherworld Demon General in front.

"Yes, these are the ones!"

After saying this, the Netherworld Demon General placed the three small objects into a pouch on his armor.

Seeing the Netherworld Demon General ask them to hand over the three small objects, and Shi Potian immediately knew which three were needed, they immediately guessed that Shi Potian must know the secrets within those coffins.

"I really was too careless before!"

At this time, many warriors secretly felt regretful.

Previously, they hadn't checked those small objects, believing them to be insignificant tokens, but now they realized the three small objects were extremely important.

Duan Gujin had seen Shi Potian take those small objects earlier, knowing he was bound to do so.

After all, Shi Potian was a bona fide tomb robber.

If Shi Potian came to a place filled with tombs and didn't rob them, that would be strange!

"Do you know the mystery of these three small objects?"

Suddenly, the Netherworld Demon General asked Shi Potian.

"I previously noticed three acrostic poems left on these small objects, and I suspect these three items are highly likely the keys to unlocking the seventh, eighth, and ninth levels!"

Shi Potian replied.

"You're absolutely right! The reason I placed these three small objects on the corpses was to help me remember how to crack the following levels! If you want to pass the fifth level, you're bound to dig up those tombs, and you'll definitely find the clues I left for you in the coffins!"

The Netherworld Demon General said.

"May I ask, friend, are you now in the identity of Gongsun Wang?"

Shi Potian asked.

"Yes!"

The Netherworld Demon General replied.

"Greetings, Senior Gongsun!"

Shi Potian said respectfully.

"You're too kind! Follow me now!"

Gongsun Wang said.

The warriors saw the situation develop unexpectedly, and for a moment, they couldn't accept it.

They originally thought today would only be a day of death but didn't expect the Netherworld Demon General would let them go, and that one among them called the Netherworld Demon General "senior."

For a moment, they were all dumbstruck, unable to believe their eyes.

Many warriors looked at Shi Potian, thinking he was unfathomable.

In the group, one person held deep hostility toward Shi Potian, and this was Nangong Qingyu.

Earlier, she thought Shi Potian took the small objects from the coffins out of greed, but now she realized they were the keys to the sixth level.

She felt Shi Potian was untrustworthy and considered him a significant danger.

"Shi Potian is so devious, taking such important tokens without telling me! Does he intend to hog everything for himself?"

After pondering, Nangong Qingyu felt Shi Potian's intentions were unfathomable.

"Senior Gongsun, I'd like to know the story of this place, and I hope you'll enlighten us! Only by knowing everything that has happened here can we know how to assist Senior Gongsun!"

At that moment, Shi Potian suddenly spoke up.

Other warriors grinned, admiring his flattering skills.

"Shi Potian is a master of flattery!"

"Alright, let me tell you what this place is. You're aware it's the Nine Shining Stars Array, right?"

Gongsun Wang asked.

"Yes!"

Many warriors answered one after another.

"Actually, this is not truly the Nine Shining Stars Array; it's merely disguised as the Nine Shining Stars Array. This place is actually a Sealing Demon Array, sealing many Ancient gods and Ancient demons on the ninth level!"

Gongsun Wang replied.

Most of the warriors gasped upon hearing this.

Not until now did they realize they had been tricked from the start.

"Indeed! I suspected this place was strange before!"

Within the group, Duan Gujin and Shi Potian felt their suspicions confirmed.

"This place, called the Nine Shining Stars Array, is meant to deceive the world! The one who built this place was my Master, and I am his disciple. He built this place intending to trap more people! But I don't want him to continue trapping innocent souls, so I infused one drop of my Essence Blood into the sixth-level armor! Only this way can I evade my Master's Divine Sense!"

Gongsun Wang said earnestly.
