Urban Martial Saint

Chapter 2200 - 2200: Warning

More than just the blue-robed elder Daoist understood Taoist Incantations at the scene; among the crowd, everyone knew who could understand Taoist Incantations. So, hearing the blue-robed elder Daoist's words, some immediately looked at the two or three people present who could understand Taoist Incantations. If they all said the same thing, it would indicate that it wasn't a translation error by the blue-robed elder Daoist, but that it was indeed recorded this way in the ancient text.

These two or three people actually walked in front of the crowd, and they could clearly see the content on the ancient text. When the crowd looked at them, these three people, although they didn't say anything, simply nodded slowly, which indicated that the blue-robed elder Daoist was not wrong at all.

Receiving confirmation from these three, the crowd couldn't help but stir up again. Of course, the crowd struggled to comprehend the descent of the gods and the resulting chaos in the world. Some were puzzled about the matter of the gods, others about the chaos; yet few noticed it was the simultaneous opening of the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates that would lead to the chaos.

Ye Qing stood by, watching the discussion among the crowd, he couldn't help but lightly sigh. This ancient text was indeed a forgery by him. The Returning Origin Technique was something he obtained from the stone corridor in The Tomb of the Duwang Sect Master. This Returning Origin Technique was somewhat related to the Primal Mysterious Body, though far less powerful than the Primal Mysterious Body. Taking out this book did make the crowd believe it was obtained from the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master.

As for the secret written on the first page about the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates, Ye Qing wrote that himself, finding someone to mimic the style so that it looked similar to the ancient text, and no one thought it was a forgery. Moreover, at this moment, no one would scrutinize whether the content was authentic; everyone was more interested in the matters of the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates, eager to enter them.

Although the Returning Origin Technique wasn't retrieved from the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master, the secret written on the first page regarding the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates was indeed obtained from the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master. Ye Qing wrote this secret here to warn the world's heroes, cautioning them not to attempt opening the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates. Otherwise, the descent of the gods would cause chaos in the world, and no one could escape.

Sadly, no one grasped Ye Qing's good intentions. Though they contemplated the matters of the gods and the chaos in the world, most were preoccupied with the idea that if the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates opened simultaneously, their chances to enter would increase significantly.

Within the crowd, the blue-robed elder Daoist did not partake in the discussion but frowned deeply. Similarly, the few others understanding Taoist Incantations shared his expression. These people were among the top figures of the Taoist Sect, knowledgeable in Taoist Incantations, and acutely aware that if this truly was left by Sage Guiguzi, it would portend trouble.

Thus, as the crowd's discussion subsided, the blue-robed elder Daoist muttered a few words, bringing the crowd to a halt.

"Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to speak a few words, how about it?" the blue-robed elder Daoist said loudly.

"Speak freely, Blue-robed Daoist!" someone shouted from below.

"Indeed!" another echoed, "Blue-robed Daoist, as a revered figure of the Taoist Sect, could you clarify what Sage Guiguzi meant by the Descent of the Gods? Is there really divinity in this world?"

"Yes, is divinity real?"

The crowd pursued this question keenly; the matter of divinity was their utmost concern. After all, for centuries, people believed no divine beings existed, making the concept of immortality nearly impossible. Now, with the notion of gods introduced, they couldn't help but ponder whether divinity truly existed. If it did, then immortality might also be possible?

The blue-robed elder Daoist couldn't help but smile wryly; the crowd fretted more about divinity than the chaos, a sentiment he found helpless. He gestured with his hand to quiet them, then spoke loudly, "Whether divinity exists in this world, I do not know; perhaps only the ancients can answer this. What I wish to share now is not this issue but the matter concerning the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates!"

The crowd exchanged glances, remaining silent; the matter of the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates was of great significance too.

"You all see, this ancient text left by Sage Guiguzi contains the writings of Sage Guiguzi," the blue-robed elder Daoist proclaimed, "Guiguzi, hailed as the foremost Great Saint in millennia by the Taoist Sect, his prowess doesn't require my elaboration."

"Of course!" someone shouted loudly, "Sage Guiguzi's Heaven Earth Man Three Gates shaped the trajectory of the following millennia, showcasing Sage Guiguzi's prowess."

These words stirred the crowd with admiration. They held great respect for Guiguzi, and in their hearts, if divinity existed, then Guiguzi would be akin to a god.

The blue-robed elder Daoist nodded, saying, "Thus, Sage Guiguzi's words would surely not be mere fallacies."

The crowd nodded in agreement; of course, Sage Guiguzi's words couldn't be false.

Seeing the crowd's expression, the blue-robed elder Daoist felt somewhat assured. He pointed to the ancient text in his hand, "Look at the content written here; it speaks of a significant secret regarding the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates. Called a secret, but in truth, it's a warning!"

"Warning?"

"What warning?"

The crowd was bewildered because they fixated on the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates, indifferent to the chaos.

The blue-robed elder Daoist declared, "Sage Guiguzi's words indeed inform us that when the Killing Wolf TriStar converges, it heralds the simultaneous opening of the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates."

At these words, someone immediately shouted excitedly, "The Heaven Earth Man Three Gates opening simultaneously means three people can enter, much more than before. Statistically, our chances increase significantly!"

From the back, Ye Qing sighed again; these people were entirely focused on entering the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates, hardly heeding the blue-robed elder Daoist's warning. Indeed, Fu Qingping was utterly right; even revealing the secret of the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates wouldn't deter their pursuit!

The blue-robed elder Daoist's expression darkened; he raised his voice to suppress the crowd's chatter, "But the crux is the next sentence. The opening of the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates means the gods will descend, plunging the world into chaos. This is the essence of the secret. Thus, if the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates open together, chaos will ensue, and none shall escape. This is the true warning of Sage Guiguzi!"

The blue-robed elder Daoist's words paused the crowd briefly, making them glance at him in astonishment. Previously, they hadn't considered this perspective. Now, hearing the blue-robed elder Daoist's words, they pondered this reality. Indeed, stringing together the phrases painted this conclusion.

As the crowd fell silent, the blue-robed elder Daoist urgently proclaimed, "This secret of the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates is Sage Guiguzi's warning to us, urging us never to completely open the gates. Otherwise, chaos will surely erupt, making escape impossible. Thus, I believe Sage Guiguzi sought to warn future generations against seeking the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates!"

Just as the blue-robed elder Daoist finished, someone instantly shouted loudly, "Blue-robed Daoist, your words seem mistaken. Sage Guiguzi's warning was that complete opening of the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates would cause chaos. But if only one or two gates were opened, not all three, wouldn't the chaos be prevented?"

"Indeed, Sage Guiguzi simply advised against opening all three gates simultaneously; he did not dissuade the pursuit of the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates!"

"Hmph, blue-robed elder Daoist, while you talk nicely, aren't you also pursuing the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates? Haven't you secluded yourself for decades awaiting the opening?"

"Blue-robed elder Daoist, are you deliberately misinterpreting Sage Guiguzi's words to mislead us while you go alone to vie for the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates?"

The crowd clamored maliciously, growing almost resentful towards the blue-robed elder Daoist's counsel against pursuing the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates. After all, they'd waited decades for this event to unfold, tied to their hopes of extending life, impossible to abandon now.

At this moment, any deterrent against pursuing the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates wasn't merely a suggestion but deemed adversarial, as even peers eyeing the gates were opponents. Engaging in such admonition now—naturally unwelcome—blurred rather than reinforced intentions, growing skepticism even towards the blue-robed elder Daoist's integrity.

The blue-robed elder Daoist felt profound helplessness. He firmly believed in Sage Guiguzi's warnings, so upon seeing these contents, he first thought to dissuade the crowd from seeking the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates, avoiding the ensuing strife. Yet his exhortation proved ineffective; the crowd not only remained unmoved but suspected he'd purposefully twisted Sage Guiguzi's meaning, fostering enmity towards him.
