Chapter 546 The Trial of Heavenly Gate

Wherever the Flame Angel passed, the crimson karmic fire scorched countless bizarre and eerie creatures into ashes!

The entire ground was burned black.

However, those strange creatures quickly recovered, and unlike the other strange creatures, they became immortal beings!
It seems that the Heavenly Gate Ancestor has strengthened these strange phenomena, and only by conforming to specific rules can they be eliminated!

"Flame Angel!"

"How could such a bizarre thing happen!"

"Could it be that angelic invasions existed in ancient times?"

"The headless Flame Angel looks very strange!"

"It seems that the angelic army once visited Blue Star. Does the Heavenly Gate Ancestor's notes contain any records about the Flame Angels?"

Ye Bai felt this was a question worth considering in depth.

Ye Bai thought about it and realized that was indeed the case!

This blue planetary plane must have been invaded and riddled with holes; it's probably been a battleground between planes throughout history!
The Flame Angel is fighting a female corpse covered in black hair!
The female corpse had only one large eye, her black hair was like steel needles, and she was wearing a white long dress.

She manipulated a large amount of black hair, which could be transformed into various shapes. However, this female corpse preferred to attack enemies using her fine black hair!
The Flame Angel was caught off guard and was surrounded by countless black hairs.

These black hairs pierced directly through the Flame Angel's body, causing it immense suffering.

Her body twisted violently, desperately trying to break free from the black hair's restraint.

Countless flames suddenly burst forth from the Flame Angel's wounds.

His black hair was instantly scorched by the flames and burned off in large quantities!

The flames spread instantly, rushing directly towards the black-haired female corpse!
The black-haired female corpse was instantly engulfed in flames. She let out a mournful cry to the sky and was burned to ashes.

However, the black-haired female corpse soon reappeared, but upon seeing the Flame Angel, she fearlessly launched another challenge.

"It seems the seal on Tianmen Mountain is on the verge of collapse! Otherwise, how could so many strange things have emerged!"

Ye Bai found it a bit strange!
Why does the seal on Tianmen Mountain look so much like a demon-sealing formation?

Ye Bai was a little confused, after all, he wasn't an expert in formations!

"But it doesn't matter, let's leave it at that! The only question is, how can I sneak in without being discovered by the strange creature?"

Ye Bai scratched his head, and at that moment, the paper figure in his hand suddenly came to life.

It stretched its arm out on Ye Bai's palm and then jumped a few times.

A stream of yin energy gradually gathered on the paper figure, and its eyes, adorned with cinnabar, suddenly lit up.

The paper figure tugged at Ye Bai's hand and pointed in a direction!
"It seems that the paper figure needs the nourishment of yin energy to come back to life!"

Yin energy is like a battery that activates the paper figure!

"Paper doll, you say you know a shortcut, right?"

Ye Bai asked curiously.

The paper figure nodded vigorously.

It was absorbing the yin energy in the vicinity in large gulps.

The surrounding yin energy was swallowed up by the paper figure, and in an instant, the concentration of yin energy in the surrounding area decreased significantly.

"However, judging from the current situation, reaching the sealed site of the Heavenly Gate Ancestor through here will definitely not be a simple matter!"

After absorbing some of the yin energy, the paper figure came to life completely!

It leaped directly from Ye Bai's palm, hopping and skipping on the ground, and soon brought Ye Bai to a place!
This place is on high ground, so you can see the scenery below!

Then the paper figure carried Ye Bai into the seal!

After the paper figure came into contact with the seal, it vanished with a whoosh.

The moment Ye Bai's hand touched the seal, he felt an extremely powerful suction force.

Ye Bai was directly sucked in.

He suddenly felt dizzy and ended up in a strange canyon.

The canyon is carved with a large number of eerie images, seemingly forming a collection of strange and mysterious figures.

Among them were the Flame Angel that Ye Bai had just seen, and the Black-haired Corpse Woman!
An old man with a carving knife was carving the stone wall, making a clanging sound!

Upon closer inspection, the old man was just a black shadow!

He was wearing a Taoist robe, and his face was covered in dark soot.

"You've come!" A faint sigh came from the old man's mouth.

"Nice to meet you. Let me introduce myself. My name is Shadow Ghost!"

"I was once the shadow of the Heavenly Gate Ancestor. I came here to guard the strange things on the orders of the Heavenly Gate Ancestor!"

"You must be the current leader of the Heavenly Gate Sect!"

"The paper figure that led the way possesses the aura of a paper puppet; I cannot mistake it!"

Ye Bai bowed respectfully to Ying Gui: "I am the current head of the Heavenly Gate. May I address you as Elder Ying?"

"I want to know how to get the Demon-Subduing Sword!"

"I have found the Demon-Subduing Sword Xihe at the Outer Heavenly Gate, and I want to find the Demon-Subduing Sword Wangshu at the Inner Heavenly Gate!"

"The magic sealing array set up by combining the two treasures, Xihe and Wangshu, is the most complete."

After hearing Ye Bai's words, Ying Gui fell into deep thought!
"I remember that old ghost took the Demon-Subduing Sword from the Outer Heavenly Gate to seal the Heaven and Earth Society. You want to take the Demon-Subduing Sword from the Inner Heavenly Gate to guard the seal and strengthen it!"

The shadowy figure revealed Ye Bai's purpose!

He rubbed his beard, hesitated for a moment, and continued speaking to Ye Bai.

"Young man, it's not that I don't want to help you, but I know where the Demon-Subduing Sword is."

"However, the Heavenly Gate Ancestor has set up many challenges there. With your current strength, you may not be able to overcome them!"

"Did you see that Flame Angel fighting fiercely? It's the gatekeeper of the first level!"

"Don't underestimate it just because it's only at the seventh rank now. Once it enters its 'burst' state, its strength will increase several times over, reaching the eighth rank. At that point, it will be extremely difficult to deal with!"

"At this point, do you still want to challenge for the Demon-Subduing Sword?"

"Moreover, when the Heaven and Earth Society was sealed, the Heavenly Gate Ancestor said that it would be sealed for a thousand years!"

"Adding another sentence wouldn't be good for you!"

"One thousand years is the date agreed upon by the Heavenly Gate Ancestor and the Chairman, so the Chairman will surely break free from the seal after one thousand years."

"Don't underestimate the guild leader's strength; he's the only Saint-level being on the entire Blue Star!"

When Ye Bai wanted to ask more about the inside story of the Sealed Heaven and Earth Society, Ying Gui avoided the question!
"You should get the Demon-Subduing Sword first, then we can talk about other things!"

"Attention! Each challenger can only send out one pet beast to participate in the challenge!"

"If you send out two pet beasts, you will instantly lose your eligibility to challenge!"

"If you want the challenge, take this token. The trial will begin the moment you touch it."

The Heavenly Gate Ancestor handed Ye Bai a dark, black token.

The token was icy cold; within seconds of touching it, Ye Bai felt as if he had been frozen.

"Come on, let me see your guts!"

"The dignified leader of Tianmen, let me see your abilities." Ying Gui looked at Ye Bai. Although no expression could be seen on Ying Gui's face, Ye Bai could feel Ying Gui staring at him.

"Alright, I'll begin the trial now."

Just then, a panel popped up in front of Ye Bai, and new information appeared again.

[1. The Shadow Demon's Trial is a deception. The Shadow Demon is actually a demon formed from the negative energy of the Heavenly Gate Ancestor. The moment you come into contact with the Shadow Demon Token, you will be cursed by the Shadow Demon. Only light-attribute skills can break the Shadow Demon's curse!]

2. The Flame Angel is an angel whose head has been cut off. It is extremely powerful, but it also has a fatal weakness: its neck. If it is attacked with great force, its neck will break instantly, and its body will also suffer severe damage.

3. The black-haired zombie woman's weakness lies in her enormous eyes. Surprisingly, she's afraid of chopped onions. Chopped onions will make her weep uncontrollably and eventually vanish into thin air.

4. The Screaming Horn is a three-meter-long giant with incredibly sharp claws and a nearly immortal body. No matter what severe injury it suffers, it will instantly recover. Its attack power is far greater than that of ordinary monsters, and it can even rip out hearts from a distance!

5. The Eye Angel is an eerie, malevolent eye formed by combining the eyes of an angel and a demon. These eyes can emit death rays; any human or phantom beast struck by these rays will have their soul instantly stripped away, and their physical body will be used as fertilizer by the Eye Angel!

"What, are you scared in this crisis?"

Yinggui chuckled coldly!
"The leaders of Tianmen are getting weaker with each generation!"

Yinggui suddenly mocked.

Ye Bai threw the token directly to the ground.

Sunflower Fairy appeared in front of Ye Bai.

“Shadow Ghost, you truly are the embodiment of the evil thoughts of the Heavenly Gate Sect Leader.”

"I understand all your intricacies perfectly well. Do you really think you can use this token to cast a curse on me?"

"You were able to break free of the sealing formation and escape to the outside world so easily?"

"You really shouldn't be dreaming!"

Shadow Ghost let out a cold laugh.

"you saw it?"

"Did you notice?"

"Honestly, when did you realize that I was the embodiment of the evil thoughts of the Heavenly Gate Ancestor?"

At this moment, the shadow gradually coalesced into the facial features of a person.

"I have been suspicious of your identity from the very beginning."

"You said you were ordered to guard this strange place for a thousand years. No matter how loyal you are, that feeling will be worn away by time!"

"You must have been thinking about how you're going to get out of here, right?"

"What you just said was probably half true and half false."

"If I believed you, I would be led astray."

After hearing this, Ying Gui immediately gave Ye Bai a thumbs up.

"You guessed right, these are exactly my thoughts."

“I also admit that I tampered with that token.”

"Now, do you feel your scalp tingling and your hands becoming uncontrollable?!"

"Haha, the Shadow Demon's poison has begun to take effect. I will completely replace you and become the new sect leader, escaping from the sealing formation."

"And you will become the new Shadow Ghost, continuing this work day after day, year after year!"

After hearing Ying Gui's words, Ye Bai revealed a meaningful smile.

Are you sure everything is under your control?

You don't know my trump card!

"And I know all your cards!"

"Sunflower Fairy, shine with holy light!"

A large amount of sunlight shone directly from the ground.

After being exposed to sunlight, the Shadow Demon emitted a large amount of black smoke.

Its body burst into flames.

All that could be seen was Ying Gui holding his head in his hands, his eyes wide open!
"No, no, no!"

"No way, how could I possibly end up like that!"

How did you know about this weakness of mine?!

The shadowy creature tried to dodge, but the sunlight was everywhere, leaving it nowhere to hide.

"Shadow Demon, the Sunflower Fairy clone will give you a good welcome. Your power comes from your shadow, so I'll have the Sunflower Fairy directly block the power of your shadow, weakening you to your weakest point."

"Shadow Demon, I won't kill you, but I will make you suffer eternal torment!"

After hearing Ye Bai's words, Ying Gui completely regretted it.

Why is he so desperate? He could have lived a good life without provoking this sect leader, instead of being trapped in eternal torment like this!
The sunflower fairy's clones intertwined, forming a huge cage specifically designed to shield the shadow ghosts.

"I want to explain something to everyone: every ghost has its weakness. Only by targeting a ghost's weakness can it be killed. Otherwise, the ghost's domain will become stronger and stronger, eventually turning it into a ghost king."

"As long as we unite as one, we can overcome even more difficulties!"

"Next, I'll use the Flame Angel!"

"Big Grey, you fight it."

Ye Bai turned his gaze to Big Gray.

Just as Big Grey was about to come out, the Frost Dragon emerged from Ye Bai's neck.

It stuck out its tongue and gave Ye Bai a fawning look.

"Frost Dragon, do you wish to join the battle?"

"That's right, you're already at the seventh level, you definitely need a whetstone like this!"

"Alright, I'll send you out this time. Use your icy winds to freeze the Flame Angel in two."

Just then, the Flame Angel was about to fly into the air and leave, but his wings were frozen by the cold wind!

Blazing flames erupted from the fire angel's body, instantly extending to its wings.

His frozen wings regained their vitality.

The Flame Angel flapped its wings suddenly, and streams of fiery energy gathered directly in its hands.

The incredibly sharp flaming spear plummeted from the sky, hurtling towards the Frost Dragon's eyeball.

"Frost Dragon, get out of the way!"

The Frost Dragon twisted its body to dodge the attack from the flaming spear.

It opened its mouth wide and suddenly spewed out a large amount of ice.

The imposing flaming spear was frozen into ice in mid-air.

Upon impact, it shattered into countless pieces.

"Frost Dragon, well done."

The Frost Dragon roared to the sky, its voice deafening. It had grown up and was now able to help Ye Bai.
