Just as the Heavenly Court was busy arranging defenses,
a group of individuals silently infiltrated.
Among them were the Great Sage Equalling Heaven and the Heavenly Great Saint.
Outside the South Heavenly Gate.
This gate is a top-rank spiritual treasure, guarding this spot for millennia.
No one has ever been able to forcefully breach it; the usual method is breaking in from the inside or sneaking through during guard shifts.
The Golden Cauldron True Man and the Heavenly Great Saint disguised themselves as heavenly soldiers.
When they reached the South Heavenly Gate, the Demon Mirror on the gate suddenly reflected the Heavenly Great Saint, revealing his true form instantly.
"Damn it!"
The Golden Cauldron True Man thought darkly that things were not looking good.
It seemed there was no choice but to force their way through.
With that thought, the Golden Cauldron True Man summoned a solid gold treasure sword.
Creaaak!
At that moment, the gate opened wide.
