With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods - Chapter 1432: Gate (2)

Chapter 1432: Gate (2)

He knew that he wouldn’t be able to change her mind, so he didn’t say anything in the end as he let her do what she wanted.

Though with the way that Ye Qing Huan followed behind him, it was almost as if she was hugging him like a koala would.

He could only move slowly with how tight Ye Qing Huan followed behind him.

But after taking that first step, Lin Fan was certain that there wouldn’t be a problem.

Since there was nothing that happened with the first tile, he believed that there wouldn’t be a problem with the second tile.

It wasn’t just a random family that he had gotten this map from, it was the Highoaks that had inherited this from the Dao Sect. No matter what, the Highoaks were real successors of the Dao Sect.

It wasn’t as if the elders of the Dao Sect would try to harm the few remnants that had escaped.

So Lin Fan didn’t feel like there would be a problem with the path dictated by the map.

As they continued forward, it seemed like Ye Qing Huan was believing more and more in the map that Lin Fan took out. But it didn’t seem like she was going to move away from him.

In fact, Ye Qing Huan even moved closer to Lin Fan which caused a wry smile to appear on his face.

With how she wrapped around his arm, it wasn’t as if they were in a dangerous place.

With how she wrapped around him, it was as if they were just taking a simple stroll.

But in the end, there was nothing that happened as they made their way through this pavilion.

There wasn’t a single trap that was activated as they walked from one end of the pavilion to the other.

Though after they made it through, it was as if something closed behind them. As soon as they walked past the threshold of this pavilion’s exit, everything behind them seemed to blur.

It was similar to how they hadn’t been able to see the pavilion until they were right up in front of it.

There was something that was stopping them from seeing what was behind them now.

But this time, the restriction was even stronger as it was literally right behind them. It wasn’t even a single step behind them, so it was right up against their back.

The closer the thing was, naturally the more power was needed to hide it away.

As expected of the Dao Sect for having an array of this level.

Only it didn’t make sense that they would create an array just to hide this. After all, it wasn’t as if there was much to hide when it came to the pavilion that they had just come from.

Regardless, it wasn’t as if it was Lin Fan’s place to question this.

Instead, he turned his attention to what was in front of him.

After they had moved through the pavilion, he found that this entire place had changed.

It turned out that there was far more than just the pavilion that was here.

That pavilion might have seemed to be quite big, but in reality it was nothing more than a small pavilion that was just the gate. After all, the rest of the sect only appeared after Lin Fan and Ye Qing Huan stepped out onto the other side of the pavilion.

This time, they were able to see the full splendor of the Dao Sect with the appearance of the full sect.

In Lin Fan’s eyes, this was what was considered a true cultivation sect.

Or at least what he would have thought based on his knowledge from his past life.

This was how the cultivation sects were described as in those novels.

But this wasn’t the time to be impressed by this place.

When he came back to his senses, Lin Fan started looking around to get his bearings again.

Just from what was drawn on the map, it wasn’t that easy for him to figure out where to go. So that was why he was going to use both the surrounding area and the map to see where he had to go next.

It was just that it didn’t seem like he was able to see much.

Though it felt like things had cleared and they were able to see the sect around them, there was also something there that seemed to be blocking their perception. It was similar to how the pavilion didn’t show itself until they were close to it, though it wasn’t the same thing.

They could see the entire sect around them, but it felt like there was something that was blocking their spiritual sense. So in the end, they weren’t able to find anything just by looking at the buildings around them.

If they wanted more information, the only way to get it was to explore these places for themselves.

But before that, Lin Fan was more focused on getting his bearings so he could follow the map.

With the map in hand, it certainly was easier to recognize this area and find where they were on it. Though thinking about it, they should have been easy to figure this out since he had been following the path that was already laid out on this map.

So the only path to take should be the path forward.

It was just that this path forward didn’t seem to be leading anywhere in particular.

Lin Fan had to double check with the map, but he saw that he wasn’t mistaken.

There were plenty of different buildings all around them, but it didn’t seem like the path was leading to them at all.

“Are they just distractions or are they traps meant to lure in the greedy?”

The latter seemed more likely than the former, when it came to these pavilions around them.

The only thing that Lin Fan might be worried about was if Ye Qing Huan wanted to take a look at these buildings. However, he could see that Ye Qing Huan wasn’t interested in them at all.

It seemed like the only thing that Ye Qing Huan was interested in was following behind Lin Fan to see where he would lead them.

That was a good thing for Lin Fan, but he could also feel the pressure that came from this.

Ye QIng Huan following him like this was her putting all her faith in him and it was quite a bit of pressure.

Still, he continued forward while following the path that had been laid out on the map. It seemed like it bypassed everything that was around him, as if it was telling him to forgo all kinds of greed that he might feel.

Of course, it wasn’t as if Lin Fan cared that much about these places to begin with.

He was someone that was able to see the big picture and knew what was at the end of the path would certainly be much greater than what was around him now.

Following the path, he was able to see that there was another pavilion that was waiting at the end for him. It seemed like this was another gate with the way that it was placed along the path that he was following.

“Does that mean that we’ll have to pass several gates before reaching the core of the Dao Sect ruins?”

If that was the case, then it made sense that there was this map among the things that he had obtained from the Highoak Family. After all, there was no way to reach the core without this map.

He had already experienced the traps and the power that was blurring their perception.

This made it clear that there was some kind of array that was protecting the entrance of the Dao Sect ruins.

Only when they arrived at the next pavilion, they found that it wasn’t that simple.

Instead of being the same as before, it seemed like this pavilion was designed to test something completely different with how empty it was. There were no tiles on the ground that showed the path forward.

When he looked at the map, Lin Fan found that there was indeed a gap right where this pavilion was.

It seemed like this wasn’t as simple as finding a path forward.

But then again, it wasn’t as if he should have expected to be that simple.

Now what mattered was finding the way through this pavilion and whatever was waiting for them.

Ye Qing Huan naturally saw the change in Lin Fan’s expression when they arrived at this pavilion, but she didn’t say anything as she looked carefully at the pavilion in front of them.

It seemed like she was planning on going forward to test it out with how she looked at it.

Lin Fan raised a hand to stop her before he took out something that he raised in front of him in an attempt to try something.

The moment that this token came out, Ye Qing Huan looked at Lin Fan with a strange look that even had a trace of wariness in it. Though that trace of wariness quickly disappeared when she remembered who he was.

Lin Fan had been hoping that there would be some kind of reaction from the pavilion when he took out this token, but it seemed like the pavilion just didn’t recognize the token at all.

“What about that box?” Lin Fan slowly muttered to himself as he remembered the other thing that he obtained from the Highoak Family’s hidden room.
