Chapter 1184: Chapter 1184: First Arrival in the Dao Domain Chapter 1184: Chapter 1184: First Arrival in the Dao Domain “Would you really give me the Heavenly Path Access Talisman if I open the doors to the Qitian Demon King Mansion for you?” Yang Xiaotian asked.

The Six-Armed White Ape nodded hastily.

Yang Xiaotian walked up to the gates of the Qitian Demon King Mansion.

Master Ding, however, was surprised and said, “I didn’t expect that little monkey would have left a cave mansion here.”

“Little monkey?” Yang Xiaotian was astonished.

“The Holy Demon Master was the ruler of the Holy Demon Continent back in the day,” Master Ding said. “However, there was also a Qitian Demon King that emerged on the Holy Demon Continent at that time.”

“His talents were not inferior to those of the Holy Demon Master, it’s just that his reputation was not as prominent.”

“He once challenged the Heavenly Path without the need for a Heavenly Path Access Token and managed to get through.”

Yang Xiaotian was amazed.

Having entered the Heavenly Path, he was well aware of how difficult it was to get through within a month, and yet the Qitian Demon King managed to do it without the aid of a Heavenly Path Access Token.

Yang Xiaotian carefully studied the restrictions on the gates of the Qitian Demon King Mansion.

On the entire gate, there was only one character: “demon.”

A simple word “demon,” but it radiated an aura as if its spirit were one with heaven.

While studying the demon character and the Demon Clan’s Grand Array it contained, Yang Xiaotian recalled a certain grand array mentioned in the many array books left by the Demon Clan Holy Ancestor.

After careful observation, Yang Xiaotian waved his hands and a Demon Clan Array Formation Rune materialized, merging into the “demon” character on the gate.

The demon character on the gate surged with light.

Seeing that it was indeed effective, Yang Xiaotian continued to condense Demon Clan Array Formation Runes and infused them into the gate. The light from the character grew intenser, and finally, the gate hummed and slowly opened.

Seeing that Yang Xiaotian had opened the entrance to the cave mansion, the Six-Armed White Ape let out a delighted cry and then tossed the Heavenly Path Access Talisman to Yang Xiaotian before flashing into the cave mansion.

Yang Xiaotian caught the Heavenly Path Access Talisman, feeling joyful in his heart.

He finally had the Heavenly Path Access Talisman in hand.

With this talisman, they could essentially ignore the Heavenly Path restrictions and make their way unimpeded to the end of the Heavenly Path.

The ancient creatures on the Heavenly Path were problematic, but with the combined strength of the group, they were entirely solvable.

Yang Xiaotian secured the Heavenly Path Access Talisman and looked towards the Qitian Demon King’s cave mansion in front of him.

“Let’s go in and take a look,” Yang Xiaotian said to the others.

Since they had opened the Qitian Demon King Mansion, it wouldn’t hurt to take a look inside.

Thus, Yang Xiaotian and his companions followed the Six-Armed White Ape into the cave mansion.

However, as soon as they entered, there was no sign of the Six-Armed White Ape, and they did not know where it had gone.

Yang Xiaotian and the others arrived at a large hall.

The hall was wide and empty.

But a single iron column caught Yang Xiaotian’s attention.

The column was as tall as two men and as thick as a small arm, engraved with the image of an Ancient great demon.

Yang Xiaotian approached the iron column, reached out to grasp it, intending to uproot it from the ground, yet the column did not budge at all!

Not only was Yang Xiaotian taken aback, but the Sword Prison King and the others were also astonished; despite their strength, none of them were able to pull out the column.

Moreover, there were no restrictions on the iron column planted in the ground.

How heavy could it be for them to not be able to pull it out?

The Sword Prison King and the others, unwilling to accept defeat, also stepped forward to try, but even when everyone applied all their strength, they still could not uproot the column.

This iron pillar exceeded everyone’s imagination in weight.

With their collective strength, they could easily fling an Ancient Divine Mountain, yet they couldn’t budge this iron pillar.

Yang Xiaotian stepped forward again, gripping the iron pillar tightly with both hands, and invoking the power of his Life-Bound Talisman, he shouted deeply. Under the power of the Dao Runes of his Life-Bound Talisman, he finally managed to slowly pull up the mysterious iron pillar.

But with every bit he pulled up, it got heavier.

Even with the power of his Life-Bound Talisman, Yang Xiaotian found it extremely difficult.

After struggling for a while, Yang Xiaotian finally managed to pull the iron pillar completely out of the ground, panting heavily, as if he had just been through the toughest battle.

After pulling out the pillar, Yang Xiaotian was able to see it in full. At the bottom of the pillar was a line of small characters, but Yang Xiaotian couldn’t make them out.

These characters seemed to be veiled by some force, extremely blurred.

Even when Yang Xiaotian and the others used all sorts of Divine Skills, they couldn’t see them clearly.

Seeing no other way, Yang Xiaotian had no choice but to put the iron pillar into the Shennong Cauldron for now and study it later.

After that, Yang Xiaotian and the others wandered around every corner of the Cave Mansion and found nothing; even the Six-Armed White Ape was nowhere to be seen.

Yang Xiaotian was puzzled; the Six-Armed White Ape should still have been inside the Cave Mansion, but where had it gone?

“Your Highness, this Cave Mansion is strange. Shall we search it more carefully?” suggested the Sword Prison King.

Yang Xiaotian thought for a moment and finally shook his head: “Forget it, let’s continue on our way.”

Yang Xiaotian wasn’t very interested in the secrets of the Cave Mansion.

And right now, the most important thing was to enter the Dao Domain.

Thereupon, Yang Xiaotian and the others left the Cave Mansion and continued on their way.

With the Heavenly Path Access Talisman in hand, they no longer had to worry about being counterattacked by the Heavenly Path Prohibitions. They flew on their way, speeding up by more than several times.

Finally, after ten or so days, Yang Xiaotian and his party arrived at the end of the Heavenly Path.

At the end of the Heavenly Path stood a gigantic spatial gate, shimmering with various lights, extremely dazzling.

From within the gate, an extremely pure stream of nature’s spiritual energy was flowing out.

Seeing this gate, everyone could hardly conceal their joy; this was undoubtedly the gateway to the Dao Domain. Once they passed through this gateway, they would reach the Dao Domain.

“Everyone, be careful,” Yang Xiaotian cautioned the others.

Although the gateway to the Dao Domain was right before their eyes, Yang Xiaotian still reminded everybody to be cautious.

Once everyone was ready, Yang Xiaotian led them and flashed into the gateway to the Dao Domain.

Upon entering the gateway to the Dao Domain, a powerful force of suction pulled at Yang Xiaotian, making him move forward. Even with the power of his Life-Bound Talisman at work, he couldn’t stabilize his form.

Meng Bingxue, the Sword Prison King, and the Poison Corpse Beast were in the same situation.

The spatial passage was dark, profound, and empty.

After a lengthy transit, Yang Xiaotian felt a lightness, and he fell from the high sky. Startled, he tried his utmost to control his form, but still, he ultimately crashed heavily onto a mountain peak.

A booming sound ensued, unceasing.

The dust lingered for a long time.

After a while, Yang Xiaotian finally stood up from the huge crater on the mountain peak, feeling as if his body was about to fall apart, and it was fortunate that he had one of the Eight Great Defiant Heavenly Divine Bodies; otherwise, he might have been reduced to dust and bones from that fall.

Yang Xiaotian swallowed a drop of Heavenly Dao Holy Water and sat down to recover his energy.

With the operation of several Divine Skills, Yang Xiaotian soon recovered completely. He soared up from the deep pit, determined his direction, and then flew onward.

This was an Uninhabited Mountain Range, and Yang Xiaotian flew for a long time without seeing a soul. He tried to take out a Message Talisman to contact Ms. Meng and others like the Sword Prison King, only to discover that the Message Talisman couldn’t transmit anything at all.

“This is the Dao Domain, where the space is entirely different from that of the Chaos Domain. The Message Talisman you used in the Chaos Domain won’t work here,” said Master Ding.
