Chapter 1771: Taking the Blame
"Haha!"
Ye Feng couldn't help but laugh.
Lan Ling'er didn't need to be too proficient in Sword Dao, so by absorbing Sword Dao Law Crystals, she could meet the conditions to activate the Origin Sword Formation.
For Ye Feng, this wasn't hard to do.
"I don't have the suitable Sword Dao Law Crystal, but I can purchase them from the Divine Sword Immortal Emperor, or go directly to the Eternal Ancient Divine Kingdom to find the Eternal Star God King."
Ye Feng mused.
Mentioning the Eternal Star God King, he remembered that the Eternal Ancient Divine Kingdom owed Yao Yue five Hundred-layer Immortal Emperor Weapons, and he didn't know if Yao Yue had gone to collect the debt from the Eternal Star God King.
"Master, why are you laughing? Did you think of something amusing?" Lan Ling'er asked.
"Yes." Ye Feng nodded, "Alright, I'll leave for now. Get familiar with the Guiyuan Sword."
"Your servant obeys."
Lan Ling'er nodded.
...
In the Black Prison, inside the wooden hut.
Ye Feng appeared out of thin air, turned his head to look, and found the Black Prison Demonic Beast snoring on the ground, with a glow enveloping it, appearing dignified and mysterious.
"Senior, I'm going to leave now..."
Ye Feng whispered, just about to leave.
"Awoo!"
But he heard the Black Prison Demonic Beast behind him making a sound. Ye Feng turned to see it stretching, its aura seemingly becoming more ethereal.
"Haha, finally done refining."
The Black Prison Demonic Beast let out an excited laugh.
Ye Feng blinked, showing curiosity, and asked, "Senior, have you finished refining that Ultimate Body Demonic Clan? How does it feel?"
"Of course, it feels great!"
The Black Prison Demonic Beast was very excited.
Ye Feng was speechless.
Good? What's good about it?
At this moment, the Black Prison Demonic Beast closed its eyes, carefully sensing its changes. Moments later, it said, "I can finally leave this damned place of Black Prison, but I can only leave for half a day each month, so frustrating!"
"Huh?" Ye Feng was surprised.
He initially thought that after refining the carcass of the Ultimate Body Demonic Clan, the Black Prison Demonic Beast would be able to permanently leave the Black Prison. Now it seems there's a restriction on leaving.
"Why is that?"
Ye Feng asked curiously.
The Black Prison Demonic Beast explained:
"Because the Ultimate Body Demonic Clan is just Eightieth-layered Immortal Emperor, its special energy is minimal, only allowing me to go out for half a day each month. If I could refine a Hundred-layer Immortal Emperor level Cosmic Sea intelligent being, I could completely ignore the restrictions of the Black Prison."
"I see." Ye Feng realized.
"What a pity, Hundred-layer Immortal Emperor level Cosmic Sea intelligent beings are too hard to capture, and we can't leave the Universe with our real bodies to catch them."
The Black Prison Demonic Beast sighed.
It can suppress evil thoughts, and almost all living beings have evil thoughts, which means as long as the opponent's strength is similar, it can suppress them through this, ultimately winning.
And it happens to be a Hundred-layer Immortal Emperor.
Going to the Cosmic Sea, as long as it doesn't encounter excessively powerful Hundred-layer Immortal Emperor level beings, it can almost suppress them after a fierce battle.
"Don't worry, Senior, I'm researching a way for real bodies to leave the Universe. Once I succeed, we can go to the Cosmic Sea to stir things up together!"
Ye Feng tempted.
"Great!" The Black Prison Demonic Beast's eyes widened, a paw heavily slapped Ye Feng's shoulder, showing its excitement.
"However, this matter can't be rushed. I need to prepare other things first. Once I succeed, I will come to the Black Prison looking for you." Ye Feng said.
"Heh, you better not come today. I'm about to go out and hunt those convicts, haven't had a feast for a long time, really miss their taste!"
The Black Prison Demonic Beast licked its lips.
Swoosh!
It leaped, tearing the void, disappearing in the blink of an eye, clearly leaving the Black Prison.
"I should leave too."
Ye Feng murmured, taking a step, his whole body burst into a splash, quickly merging into the void.
...
A Great Thousand World.
Several Fifty-layer Immortal Emperors from the Black Prison Demon Sect gathered at the top of a high peak here, playing chess.
"I've heard it's our turn to enter the Rebirth Pond, really looking forward to it!"
An elder with crane-like hair and a childish face said.
"Yes, once we enter the Rebirth Pond and weaken our evil thoughts, we can wash away the label of Black Prison convict and become normal people."
"Not only that, but it can also enhance our potential."
"Exactly, that's wonderful."
Several Fifty-layer Immortal Emperors chatted and laughed.
Suddenly, they heard the sound of heavy breathing from a beast and felt a cold wind behind them, suddenly shrinking their necks.
"Wha... what's going on?"
They turned their stiff necks to look behind.
The next moment.
"Ah!"
"It's the Black Prison Demonic Beast!"
"It can actually leave the Black Prison, this can't be, absolutely not!"
These people screamed.
At this moment, the Black Prison Demonic Beast stood behind these Fifty-layer Immortal Emperors, coldly watching them, having heard their previous conversation.
"Rebirth Pond, weaken evil thoughts?"
"Heh, how ridiculous!"
"Even if your evil thoughts are weakened to one-tenth of the original, and you're no longer deemed as Black Prison convicts, do you think you can escape?"
"Evil people will eventually face evil consequences!"
The Black Prison Demonic Beast's tone was chilling. With that said, it licked its lips and pounced.
Crack!
These Fifty-layer Immortal Emperors couldn't move, watching helplessly as they were crushed and devoured.
The Black Prison Demon Sect's base.
Crack!
Four Soul Lamps shattered simultaneously.
"This is terrible!"
"Another four Fifty-layer Immortal Emperors have fallen."
The Immortal Emperor guarding the Soul Lamps immediately transmitted the news to his direct superior - a certain Seventy-layered Immortal Emperor.
Afterward, this person entered a hall.
"Sect Master, something bad happened."
This Seventy-layered Immortal Emperor looked grim, holding a eyeball-shaped Immortal Emperor Artifact, placing it before the Hei Sha Immortal Emperor and several other eighty-plus-layered Immortal Emperors.
"Everyone, please look at the Soul Bead."
This person pointed at the eyeball.
Hei Sha Immortal Emperor picked up the eyeball, quickly forming seals with another hand, inserting a wisp of aura into it.
The next moment.
A brilliance appeared, manifesting the scene of those Fifty-layer Immortal Emperors moments before their death in mid-air.
"Black Prison Demonic Beast!"
"It can actually leave the Black Prison!"
"It seems that the previous mysterious deaths of numerous low-level Immortal Emperors of the Black Prison Demon Sect were indeed its doing."
Hei Sha Immortal Emperor and others' expressions changed drastically.
In order to find out who was behind the killings of the Black Prison Demon Sect's Immortal Emperors, Hei Sha Immortal Emperor invented the Soul Bead. This object comes in pairs; one is hidden in the Black Prison Demon Sect, and the other inside each Immortal Emperor.
Upon the Immortal Emperor's death, the Soul Bead shatters, transmitting the death scene to the paired bead.
Now, the Soul Beads have fulfilled their purpose.
But, Hei Sha Immortal Emperor and others were confronted with a harsh reality they were struggling to fathom—the Black Prison Demonic Beast could indeed leave the Black Prison!
"Sect Master, what do we do?"
An Eightieth-layered Immortal Emperor trembled, recalling the terrifying scene of witnessing a companion being devoured by the Black Prison Demonic Beast back in the Black Prison.
"What else can we do?"
The surrounding Immortal Emperors began to howl in despair.
What they didn't know was that today was the Black Prison Demonic Beast's first time leaving the Black Prison, and after devouring those Fifty-layered Immortal Emperors, it had already begun to wander the Universe, no longer caring about those convicts of the Black Prison Demon Sect.
It had unknowingly become the scapegoat...
