Chapter 222 - 219 Exotic Beast
"Follow me."
Ye Xuan waved to Mu Yan, signaling her to come closer. The area surrounding the Fire Refining Tower was protected by formidable prohibitions, and any careless intruder would likely trigger an alarm, alerting the disciples of the Wildfire Sect who guarded the tower.
However, Ye Xuan possessed the ability to probe with his Divine Sense; even the prohibitions in the Blood Soul Pond had not been a match for him, let alone those here.
Ye Xuan picked up a pebble from the ground and, flicking it with his finger, shot the stone rapidly towards a certain area not far away.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh!
In an instant, that area was filled with a dense array of poison needles and arrows. Had someone passed through there, they would probably have been shot into a hornet’s nest.
"The Wildfire Sect is indeed cautious to have not only prohibitions guarding the Fire Refining Tower but also mechanical traps," Mu Yan commented with a slightly grave expression on her pretty face. It seemed the Wildfire Sect highly valued the Fire Refining Tower. Even their disciples would find it difficult to enter or leave without guidance. Triggering the prohibitions or traps would mean certain death without someone to lead the way.
Ye Xuan focused on finding his way forward. Although the prohibitions were not extremely ingenious, the Wildfire Sect had still set up three layers of prohibitions around the Fire Refining Tower. To safely pass through, only someone like Ye Xuan, a Heavenly Realm Martial God with a deep understanding of prohibitions, could manage it. Any ordinary person would have already stirred the grass and startled the snake, or been killed directly by the traps.
After lingering among the prohibitions surrounding the Fire Refining Tower for more than ten minutes, Ye Xuan and Mu Yan finally stepped out of the prohibitions and lay in hiding beside the tower.
At the entrance to the Fire Refining Tower, there were clearly four or five disciples of the Wildfire Sect standing guard.
Mu Yan was about to take action when Ye Xuan pulled her back, shaking his head to signal that she should not act rashly.
