After a pause, the middle-aged scholar turned around again and said to everyone, "Brothers and sisters, you go up the mountain and wait for me first. After I lead the Great Emperor and the others to the Void Cage, I will come back to find you!"

Immediately someone said: "No, Boss, we'll go with you!"

"Yes, Boss, we'll go with you, even if it means dying together!"

"Boss, no matter what, I will not leave you!"

...

Many bandits made it clear that they were unwilling to leave!

"Good!"

The middle-aged scholar said: "Since this is the case, let's join the Great Emperor in this adventure!"

Afterward, the middle-aged scholar turned to Lin Fan and asked, "By the way, Great Emperor, I'm really puzzled about something. May I ask what is your purpose in going to the Void Cage?"

Not only the middle-aged scholar, but even the people on Lin Fan's side also looked over at Lin Fan, equally perplexed by his actions.

Lin Fan calmly said, "I plan to... set free everyone within the Void Cage!"

"What?"

Upon hearing Lin Fan's words, the middle-aged scholar and the others were greatly shocked.

The middle-aged scholar quickly said, "Great Emperor, you must not, this must not be done. You must know, the Void Cage contains countless extremely vicious individuals, some of which are age-old Demons. If you carelessly release the age-old Demons from the Void Cage, it will surely bring a great disaster to the Holy Soul Domain. After we leave the Void Cage, it has become stable again. If you do not tamper with the Void Cage, it should remain stable without issues for thousands of years, but... but..."

Because of his nervousness, the middle-aged scholar couldn't finish his words.

Gao Feiyan also arrived next to Lin Fan and said, "Lin Fan, what this guy just said is correct. You really shouldn't act impulsively. If you release people from the Void Cage, the loss will outweigh the gain!"

Lin Fan's gaze slowly swept over everyone and said, "I understand your concerns, but my mind is made up. There is no need to say more!"

After another pause, Lin Fan continued, "Don't worry. Since I've decided to release the people within the Void Cage, I'm confident that I can do it!"

"But..." said Gao Feiyan.

Lin Fan interrupted Gao Feiyan, "Gao Feiyan, you have to trust me!"

"Alright then!"

Ultimately, Gao Feiyan could only helplessly nod.

"Let's go, get in the warship, we'll go see the legendary Void Cage together!" A brilliant smile appeared on Lin Fan's face.

Actually, in his previous life, Lin Fan had heard of the Void Cage, which is the most mystical cage in the Holy Soul Domain. It is said that the Void Cage has existed for a very, very long time, but as for how it came to be and who built it, no one knows!

However, one thing is certain: once anyone is trapped in the Void Cage, they could never hope to leave and return to the Holy Soul Domain.

It's pretty evident that people like the middle-aged scholar were lucky to have been able to leave the Void Cage.

In his former life, Lin Fan always wanted to witness the might of the Void Cage, but unfortunately, he never had the chance. But now, he finally has the opportunity to see what is so magical about the Void Cage.

Subsequently, guided by the middle-aged scholar and others, Lin Fan controlled the warship and headed in a certain direction.

This journey was very long, the warship traveled for several days before finally stopping. What lay ahead was a vast ocean that seemed endless.

In fact, according to everyone's understanding, this ocean truly had no end, so much so that there is a belief that this ocean is the limit of the Holy Soul Domain.

For this reason, this place is called the Endless Sea!

The middle-aged scholar said to Lin Fan, "Great Emperor, after crossing the Endless Sea ahead, lies the Void Cage!"

Lin Fan's eyebrows furrowed slightly, "Are you certain that the end of the Endless Sea is the Void Cage?"

The middle-aged scholar nodded.

Lin Fan asked, "Then tell me, how can we get through the Endless Sea?"

Lin Fan knew well that the Endless Sea was not to be taken lightly. Previously, countless experts had tried to discover the true extent of the Endless Sea, but unfortunately, none of them had reached its end. Instead, they encountered various dangers on the Endless Sea and were forced to return defeated.

But now...

The middle-aged scholar was actually telling Lin Fan that the Void Cage was at the very end of the Endless Sea?

Was this some kind of joke?

The middle-aged scholar said, "Rest assured, Great Emperor, we previously managed to return to the Holy Soul Domain from the Void Cage by crossing the Endless Sea. Moreover, we've memorized the entire route. If we follow the same path back, we can reach the end of the Endless Sea and then find the Void Cage!"

"Good, then lead the way!"

Lin Fan said calmly.

Then, with a thought from Lin Fan, the warship transformed into a warship and set sail, heading directly towards the Endless Sea.

The speed of the warship was extremely fast, leaving behind trails of afterimages.

Along the way, with the middle-aged scholar's guidance, they constantly changed direction - sometimes moving backward, sometimes forward, sometimes turning in place.

All in all, the route they took was very peculiar.

Lin Fan couldn't help but think, "It's lucky we have the middle-aged scholar leading the way; otherwise, I would never be able to find the location of the Void Cage."

Because the route was so strange, even the navigation function of the Universal Image was unable to find the correct path.

Finally, after what seemed like an eternity traveling on the Endless Sea, Lin Fan and the others could finally see an oasis.

Outside the oasis seemed to be an unknown world.

Everyone became very excited, for they knew they had reached the end of the Endless Sea.

The warship quickly reached the shore and transformed back into a warship to continue forward, but this time it did not travel far before coming to a halt, as there was no road ahead.

An unknown space lay beyond the oasis.

That unknown space was the Void Cage.

Even with Lin Fan's courage, he did not dare to control the warship to enter the Void Cage.

Because escaping from the Void Cage was extremely difficult, Lin Fan did not have the confidence, so he could only control the warship to stop.

The middle-aged scholar said to Lin Fan, "Great Emperor, this is the Void Cage. Once you break open the Void Cage, all those imprisoned inside will eventually come pouring out."

Lin Fan did not answer, still looking straight ahead.
