Chapter 1309: The Trap

The great ship traveled north along the direction of the arrow at a steady pace while remaining cautious.

Many cultivators were surprised to see the boat’s trajectory. Any reasonable person would know that the buoy from earlier was an attempt to goad Li Qiye towards the trap.

They weren’t willing to be fooled and would rather avoid it completely instead of being led by the nose. Everyone knew that Li Qiye was aware of this trap, but to their astonishment, he still chose to go towards it.

“Knowing that there is a tiger on the mountain yet still choosing to climb, how bold and decisive. What a confident person!” Even sea demons unavoidably felt a little admiration for Li Qiye.

“Prudence allows for a ship to sail ten thousand years.” An old cultivator murmured: “The path towards the dao is endless with countless dangers. If not careful, even the most amazing genius might find their boat capsize one day.”

“Come, let’s take a look. I actually want to know who is trying to mess with Li Qiye.” Some cultivators couldn’t contain their curiosity and decided to follow.

Someone had already placed a high bounty for Li Qiye’s head, and now there was this blatant provocation and trap. The person behind this must have an irreconcilable feud with Li Qiye.

The boat didn’t go too far before seeing another message on the sea with an arrow: “Li Qiye will die if he goes this way!”

The boat, once again, followed the direction without any hesitation. After some distance, they kept seeing the same sign again and again with a new direction.

“Just what kind of trap is waiting for him?” The quantity of the signs built up the anticipation of the cultivators following behind the boat.

Eventually, the boat stopped because of a large sign with “Li Qiye will die here!” written on it. There wasn’t an arrow above the words this time.

The spectators knew that the trap was before them, so they stopped to watch from afar.

Li Qiye told the two girls: “Stop here, I’ll go take a look.”

“Be careful.” Jianshi reminded him after seeing that he wanted to go alone.

“Don’t worry, I actually want to be killed.” Li Qiye looked at her and smiled: “It will be a good thing.”

The two sisters were speechless. This was their first time hearing someone who wished to be killed.

Li Qiye slowly walked on the waves towards the sign in front of him. He seemed to be taking a stroll through his own garden instead of walking towards a trap.

The sea demons in the distance were surprised by his carefree demeanor. One of them said: “This Li might be arrogant, but he can really back it up. Courageous and domineering, a very unique individual even among the young geniuses in Heaven Spirit.”

“It’s about to begin, I wonder how strong his enemies are.” Some spectators were holding their breaths in anticipation. They didn’t want to miss a single detail. Some wanted to see just how strong this trap was and if it could deal with Li Qiye or not.

Li Qiye glanced at the buoy and casually threw it away before smiling: “Come, do your worst and impress me.”

“Boom! Boom! Boom!” At the initial location of the buoy where Li Qiye was standing, great pillars soared into the sky from the bottom of the sea.

They surrounded this region and runes began to appear on their surfaces.

“Clank!” These runes instantly connected with each other like iron chains and sealed the entire area.

“Whoosh!” They emitted a powerful aura and a blinding light. Even space seemed to be frozen.
