Chapter 943 – Water prison

After the old peach tree was struck by the heavenly lightning, it was split into pieces, and the trunk of the tree was instantly set ablaze. Before this, a green light shot straight at Feng Xiuyang from the old tree. That was an inheritance that no one could understand, or perhaps an exchange. Some people have a fatalistic way of saying things that doesn’t make sense and doesn’t make sense. The old peach tree had lived for several thousand years, but the Zhang Zhenjun had told it that he was waiting for Feng Xiuyang, who was not even thirty years old yet.

Therefore, Feng Xiuyang kneeled down and continuously kowtowed.

Outside the mountain gate, the Zhang Zhenjun turned around to take a glance before raising his hand to point at the sky. “You destroyed my tree, but I destroyed your life.”

When Feng Xiuyang stood up, all that was left was a floor full of ashes. He took off his white daoist robe and walked into the main hall of the Violet Firmament Hall. Kneeling in front of the Daofather statue, he tied up his hair, took out a dagger, and carved a single word on his arm.

“Yes.”

Ten thousand miles away, in the secret realm.

An Zheng raised his head and looked around. The secret realm was just too big, and Immortal Emperor Xuan-Yuan’s strength could be seen from this. After they buried the corpses, they searched through all the rooms. The most shocking thing was that there were secret chambers in the front and back of the house. Each row of rooms had corpses in them. Some had more than a thousand bodies, while others had three or five.

At this moment, everyone was already numb to the situation. They could only collect corpses and bury them. Even the few lucky survivors who had originally wanted to kill An Zheng and the others silently followed An Zheng and the others who had abandoned the sect in search of their remains. At least, at that very instant, they forgot about the battle and the slaughter. They only wanted to bury those who died in vain. Most importantly, if not for An Zheng saving them from the secret room, they would have been buried alive.

The cultivator leading the group cupped his fists towards An Zheng before he left: “Thank you for saving my life.”

As the head of a sect, he lifted his robe and knelt down with a kowtow before standing up. “After we leave the sect, if we meet again, we might even face each other with weapons … I only hope that I won’t meet you again. ”

An Zheng waved his hand: “Scram.”

That person’s expression changed as he turned around and walked away.

There were a few people who did not follow him. After bidding farewell to An Zheng and the others, they decided to leave the Immortal Palace. Now, no one could tell who was right and wrong. They were only working for the Holy See and felt that they stood on the side of reason. But now, he became confused.

At the bottom of the palace, An Zheng and the others discovered another secret room, only this room was a little different. It was very damp and did not smell of lime. An Zheng let Monkey and Chen Shaobai cut off the rear. and himself were in front, Qu Liuxi and Gu Qianye were in between. The six of them carefully walked down the secret stairs. The deeper they went, the more humid it became. Qu Liuxi took out a few pills and distributed it to everyone. She was acutely aware that there was a kind of paralyzing poison in the humidity below.

With the help of pills to dispel the poison, the few of them went down to the secret room and discovered that it was actually a water prison. Du Shoushou squatted down by the side of the water to take a look. The water was dark green in color, indicating that it was poisonous. He turned around and looked at Qu Liuxi. Qu Liuxi took out a silver needle and tested it in the water. Then, his expression changed, “It’s corpse poison … Someone had refined a large amount of corpses and placed the corpse poison in the water. Even an expert of the Lower Celestial Stage would die if they accidentally touched the water. ”

“He actually built a water prison here. I wonder what his intentions are.”

Right now, An Zheng only had the thin Cultivation Power in his body, he was unable to use it. Du Shoushou casually picked uiece of wood and threw it into the water. An Zheng cut a strand of his hair and threw it in. That hair floated on the surface of the water but was not cut.

The water prison was very big and the air was filled within layer of mist. Qu Liuxi said that the mist was stronger than water poison. It had to be at least a hundred metres from here to the other side, and even if An Zheng wanted to rush over, he would probably be knocked down by the poison aura.

“There’s no need to go, right?”

Du Shoushou shook his head: “There’s no way to explore this place, there’s no need for us to go.”

At this moment, he suddenly heard someone call out in a low voice from afar. It seemed to be coming from somewhere else.

“Save me …”

Du Shoushou knew what kind of character An Zheng had, he grabbed onto An Zheng and said: “That white robed man probably hasn’t left yet, maybe he is luring us over there. An Zheng, I know you want to go over, but you should consider yourself. ”

An Zheng nodded his head: “I don’t plan to go over, let him call for me. Since a single person is able to survive the poisonous mist and water, he is much stronger than all of us. Therefore, even if I were to go over, I would not be able to save him. ”

In the darkness, behind the poisonous fog, a man wearing a white robe looked outside with cold eyes. He snorted and turned around. He walked deeper and opened the door. In the depths of the water prison, there was a man with long hair that reached to his knees who was nailed to the wall by a few purple chains. These chains cleverly pierced through many bones, and the dense runes on them were still flashing faintly.

“Someone is coming from outside.”

The white-robed man walked in front of the man who was locked up, and used the white staff in his hand to prop that man’s head up. “This is the first time in the past ten thousand years that someone has saved you, but they did not dare to come over. I shouted for you just now, so they won’t come over. But you still have to thank me. After all, I still have to shout for help. ”

The man’s voice let out a few “ka ka” sounds. It must be because he had not spoken for a very long time, so he could not speak anymore. Under his messy hair, his eyes stared maliciously at the white-robed man.

“Don’t look at me like that. If your eyes could kill me, I would have been chopped into pieces by you ten thousand years ago. ”

He used his staff to peel off the man’s tattered clothes. Inside, a dark green worm crawled through the man’s mutilated flesh. It was obvious what kind of pain this was, and this person had already endured for ten thousand years.

“I’ve always been curious as to how you came back.”

The white-robed man sat down on a nearby stone bench, putting his staff to one side. “I left that year, so why did I return?”

That person’s voice cracked a few more times. Although there were no syllables, anyone who heard it would understand that it was probably the most vicious curse in the world. However, the white-robed man didn’t care.

“You also know that I’m not afraid of you, because I’m only a shadow sent out by me.”

The white-robed man lowered his head to look at the man’s legs in the water. There was no more flesh below his knees, only white bones. A few tiny worms were gnawing on the bones, making creepy sounds.

“Truly amazing. Even after persisting for ten thousand years, you still haven’t died.”

The white-robed man took out a jade bottle and poured the powder into the water. “It seems that the poison in the water has weakened a little. I’ll help you add some, no need to thank me.”

He stood up and saw that the palm of the man’s hand was open. The fingernails on his fingers were long and crooked.

“I don’t want you to suffer. I don’t want to torture you like this either.”

He sighed, “I don’t count killing people, but I never torture them. Every life was worth respecting, so he had to kill them cleanly. At the very least, he didn’t want them to leave in too much pain. However, I can’t kill you. Even after ten thousand years, I still can’t kill you … Therefore, this is the only way for me to keep fighting you, bit by bit. You are too strong. Maybe one day when I die, I can’t poison you to death. ”

He turned around and walked out, “Actually, even if someone found you here, they wouldn’t be able to save you. No one would be able to survive the poison, and no one would be able to pass through the poisonous fog. Even if they came over, who would be able to break this Dragon Seizing Chains? “You were the one who created this Dragon Seizing Chains …”

The man suddenly raised his head, tossing his messy hair behind him. Tiny flesh-bugs crawled in and out of his face while he stared at the man in white’s back with incomparable hatred. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to roar, but in the end he only let out a faint, hoarse sound, like a snake spitting out its tongue.

The white-robed man left in a flash. He had never had a real physical body before.

Outside the water prison, An Zheng and the others had already walked out, the poison inside was too strong, even after eating Qu Liuxi’s Poison dispelling pill, they still felt dizzy.

“There must have been a great man locked up here.”

Chen Shaobai sighed: “I wouldn’t find it strange even if it were Guan Chen Wunuo.”

An Zheng responded witum, and then subconsciously turned his head to take another look.

“Let’s go.”

An Zheng turned around and walked forward, as if he was no longer curious.

In the distance, the white robed man watched as An Zheng and the others left, and laughed coldly. He then said to himself: “They are just a group of stronger ants, ants are always ants. I will let you live for a few more days. If you are lucky, you might even see the cultivators die out from this world. ”

He turned around and floated out, his figure gradually fading away.

Chen Shaobai walked behind Du Shoushou, stepping on his heels as he walked: “Where’s Ying Yu, have you returned to the Big Mustard Space yet?”

Du Shoushou was annoyed from being stepped on, he turned around and walked behind Chen Shaobai, reaching out to pull Chen Shaobai’s pants. Chen Shaobai chuckled: “I’m not wearing it.”

Both of Du Shoushou’s hands patted Chen Shaobai’s butt, and the sound was extremely clear. Then, Du Shoushou was stunned for a moment, as he continuously flung his hands with a disgusted expression. Chen Shaobai scolded him: “You are still acting like this, young master has been taken advantage of by you, I should chop off your hand to show my innocence.”

Du Shoushou stretched out his hand: “Just chop it, hurry up and chop it.”

An Zheng’s footsteps paused, and his brows knitted extremely deeply. He subconsciously turned his head to look at the hillside, then turned back again: “I still want to go over there to take a look.”

Du Shoushou scolded. Your master, he extended his hand to pull An Zheng, and An Zheng said: “I always feel that there is something in the water prison that I must see. I cannot miss out on like this. Let’s go back and take a look. If the hair in the poisonous water hasn’t been melted yet, I’ll go in. If it’s melted, we’ll leave immediately. ”

“Why? Why don’t you tell me?! ”

Du Shoushou said in a slightly angry tone, “I clearly know that it’s dangerous there, and there’s no need to go in there at all.”

An Zheng said: “I don’t know why either, but it seems like a voice in my heart is constantly telling me to go in. I know it’s hard to understand, and I don’t understand it myself, but even if we leave today, I’ll still come back tomorrow. The secret hidden in the water prison is most likely related to the white-robed person. ”

Du Shoushou looked at Qu Liuxi: “Why aren’t you persuading him?”

Qu Liuxi took a deep breath and took out all of the poison dispelling pills, “You must be careful.”

The six of them turned around and went back into the water prison. By the side of the pool, An Zheng saw a strand of his hair, floating silently above the water’s surface.

And in the darkness opposite, it seemed as if there was a giant python hiding in the water, ready to jump out and swallow him at any moment.
