Chapter 1313: Prison Break
Chapter 1313: Prison Break
Watching Yi Feng return the courtesy, the old women were filled with trepidation.
"Brother... Brother Yi, greetings..."
After a round of formal salutations, their agitated hearts were still hard to calm. They never dared imagine that one day they could actually address a supreme expert like Senior Yi as a brother. It was an honor rarely seen in several lifetimes.
It wasn't until Yi Feng invited them to sit that they gradually steadied their minds.
The former seat of honor was now occupied by Yi Feng, as was both the collective wish and entirely natural. Tree Venerable and Guo Jiannan sat on his left and right as companions, their eyes filled with reverence and excitement.
Several cups of light tea did little to quell the excitement in their hearts.
Seeing a group of old men suddenly fidgeting restlessly, acting like nervous young lads, Yi Feng was both amused and exasperated. He could only change the subject to ease the atmosphere.
"Everyone."
"Now that you have these demon corpses, you should be able to restore your cultivation in the future. When can we leave this place?"
While making a group of younger brothers was gratifying, he still had his grand plan of seeking death to attend to. The Demon-Suppressing Prison no longer held any threats, so naturally, there was no need to stay.
At these words, everyone's expressions turned solemn.
After a moment of contemplation, Guo Jiannan was the first to cup his fists and speak.
"Brother... Brother Yi."
"We have been trapped in the Demon-Suppressing Prison for far too long. Our vital energy and blood have severely deteriorated, and I fear we cannot restore ourselves to our peak condition. It is truly shameful. The matter of breaking open the Demon-Suppressing Prison will have to trouble Brother Yi to personally take action."
Tree Venerable and the others also cupped their fists one after another, their faces serious.
"Only if Brother Yi takes action might there be a chance to break open the Demon-Suppressing Prison!"
At this moment, how could they have the face to mention the title of 'Godly Sword' again? Having witnessed Yi Feng's terrifying cultivation, remembering their own former airs of seniority made their faces burn with shame.
But when it came to breaking the prison, they were still somewhat nervous, not daring to speak in absolute terms lest circumstances change and damage Brother Yi's dignity.
Guo Jiannan, being the most experienced, thought for a moment before looking at Yi Feng with a smile and speaking up.
"Brother Yi."
"Through our many years of probing the Demon-Suppressing Prison, we finally discovered an opportunity several thousand years ago. This prison has a weak point, a discrepancy from the perfect conception at its establishment. It must be that someone from Blizzard Island was perfunctory in their duties, not maintaining the prison with full effort."
"With Brother Yi's profound cultivation, if you employ your methods at that weak point, you will surely be able to break open the Demon-Suppressing Prison!"
His words made everyone's eyes shine with confidence.
Yi Feng, hearing this, immediately stood up and with a wave of his hand, set off with the group.
Not long after.
The party arrived at the shore of a gloomy lake. They stood quietly on the bank, observing for a long time. The far end of the lake surface was utterly calm, without a single spatial rift in sight. It appeared as a self-contained world, seamless and impregnable!
Instantly, everyone stared wide-eyed, exchanging glances of shock and doubt.
"This!"
"The spatial barrier ahead is as solid as a fortress, completely different from before!"
"That's not right! I also remember, spatial turbulence used to surge out from here. It was clearly the weak point of the prison!"
"Now there's indeed no flaw to be seen. What are we to do?!"
Guo Jiannan stared intently for a few moments, his expression turning grim.
"It seems the prison's formation must have activated. Over the millennia, it has repaired that weak point."
Hearing this, despair filled everyone's eyes.
"Repaired?"
"Does that mean this Demon-Suppressing Prison now has no weakness at all?!"
These brief words plunged the group into deeper despondency. Even without another word spoken, the oppressive silence was nearly suffocating. The hope that had just been born was severed before their eyes—nothing was more despairing than this.
Guo Jiannan also closed his eyes with a bitter smile, sighing softly towards the sky.
"Back then, to besiege the demon race, this old man invited many formation grandmasters to establish the Demon-Suppressing Prison, seeking only to create a land of despair isolated from the world. This formation is indeed formidable, repairing its own weakness in just a few thousand years..."
"To think that I brought this upon myself. Now, trapped here for eternity, I have even implicated all of you!"
Everyone felt a pang of bitterness in their hearts, standing stiffly by the lake with bowed heads. Their sole hope was severed, almost shattering the Dao hearts they had maintained for tens of thousands of years.
However.
When Guo Jiannan awkwardly turned, intending to apologize to Yi Feng...
He discovered that Yi Feng had already stepped forward steadily, holding his blade with both hands, utterly unaffected by the group's despondency. Not a trace of aura emanated from him, yet he exuded a sense of pressure that filled Guo Jiannan with immense dread!
Seeing that ancient long blade, his heart turned even colder with shock, a thousand words choking in his throat.
Before Guo Jiannan could observe for a few more moments.
Yi Feng had already reached the lakeside and brought his vertically held blade down in a cleaving strike!
"CRACK!"
A crisp sound like thunder, a blade radiance that split heaven and earth!
The lake surface was forcibly parted into two sides. The blade radiance cleaved down for thousands of miles without ceasing. Everything in its path retreated. The spatial barrier at the far end of the lake instantly shattered into pieces. Sunlight fell from the outside world, and spiritual energy began to pour in continuously.
The Demon-Suppressing Prison had been forcibly cleaved open!
One blade shattered the void, stunning everyone present!
