Divine Brilliance

“If any accidents occur, Lu Tianxing is willing to suffer the consequences!”

Thinking about the situation, Jueyan mentioned that even he couldn’t escape from the jail, wouldn’t Zong Shou just invite other End Realm Cultivators to save him?

With the talents this kid displayed today, it was definitely a possibility that he had End Realm Cultivators helping him from the outside.

At that moment, so what if he was punished for failing to uphold his responsibilities?

Looking at all the positions in the Lu Family, there weren’t any worse than this.

Would they lock him into the Ninth Layer Death Jail used to contain Saint Realm Cultivators?

As for Zong Shou, just the crime of colluding with the enemy was enough to prevent him from ever returning to the Lu Family.

The case in the past would also have no chance of being overturned.

After having his face slapped by others, this Extreme Flame Saint Venerable and even the entire Lu Family would have to react.

Moreover, there were not many people who could definitely beat Jueyan and also not fear offending the Lu Family.

“Is that so? When the time comes, I hope you remember these words…”

Lu Jueyan’s lips twitched like he didn’t want to talk anymore with Lu Tianqing about this matter.

His gaze looked down, spreading through the void as he looked at the eighth layer, at the iron-armored person who was standing outside the Nether Jail Gate and away from the storm.

The person who followed Zong Shou was probably his subject.

He was Peak Celestial Realm and had half a foot in the Saint Realm, but for some reason, he cared a lot about him.

“Why do I feel that this person’s aura is so familiar?”

Thinking about it, Lu Jueyan knew the reason and laughed, “So it is him! This kid escaped this place with so much difficulty but ran back in the end. What was the reason? It seems like he is really stubborn…”

Lu Tianqing was slightly startled and then reacted. His eyes were dark and said in deep thought, “It is Lu Wubing! This person was dispatched by Xuanye Country Ruler to follow Lu Wushuang. However, now he is following Zong Shou, so did he change sides? I heard that he and Lu Wushuan chased Zong Shou, but in the end, Lu Wushuang died at the hands of the Buddhist Faction. Lu Wubing’s whereabouts were unknown. Logically speaking, he should have died…”

After saying this, he had a suspicious expression on his face.

Since Lu Wubing didn’t die and instead joined Zong Shou, did that mean that Lu Wushuang’s death had something to do with Zong Shou?

Then, he broke out into a laugh. Whether or not there was a connection had nothing to do with him.

As long as the few elders of the Saint Dynasty thought so, then it was okay.

Killing a direct bloodline member of the same race was another sin.

“Lu Wushuang died? What a waste!”

Jueyan sighed like he didn’t hear the meaning within Lu Tianqing’s words.

“At the start, I had high hopes for that little fellow. For him to come out from a branch race and get to such a stage was really not easy.”

“This is really a regretful matter! I heard that after Lu Wushuang died, Xuanye Country Ruler went into seclusion for 10 days.”

Lu Tianqing nodded slightly. His eyes were like those of a venomous snake looking at that person beside the gate.

Killing intent surged in his eyes but he retracted it. Forget it, killing him would give him a quick death. Why not let this kid get tortured in the Spirit Ocean Death Jail?

This was different from dozens of years ago. Lu Wubing had enough cultivation and would be able to survive a period of time within this place.

Just as he was thinking about this, Lu Tianqing stopped worrying and said, “Saint Venerable, Junior is still worried about a matter. Zong Shou has entered the eighth layer of the Death Jail, so do we need to shift Lu Hanyan?”

“Shift her to where?”

Lu Jueyan turned around and looked deeply at the red-robed old man behind him. He shook his head in disagreement, “Since Hanyan gave birth to this child, they have never seen one another. Doing so is a little heartless, there is no need to do so…”

“Saint Venerable! I am just worried that accidents might occur. After all Lu Hanyan is that person’s grandchild and the descendent of Yanyuan Saint Venerable. He might have some methods to help this kid escape.”

Lu Tianqing was trying to persuade him but Lu Jueyan waved his hands, “There is no need to worry! I am still hoping for this kid to try his hand at the ninth layer. Of course, I will have my methods of handling this matter…”

The moment he heard this, Lu Tianqing was at ease. He was filled with questions. Listening to his tone, he seemed really interested in Zong Shou and was anticipating something.

Was it that he was feeling lonely after being by himself for 10,000 years and after finding a new toy, he was not willing to let go of it?

He looked at Lu Jueyan’s back in shock and then said with an intrigued tone, “Who is the one guarding the ninth layer? And also that Formless Shadow Demon? This kid has really good potential and is just a step away from the Intermediate Sword Spirit Realm. The Shadow Demon probably wouldn’t be able to block him…”

While saying this, he caused the space beside him to split and he stepped within.

Lu Tianqing’s brow rose up. He guarded the Death Jail for so long and this was the first time he saw Lu Jueyan so excited.

※※※※

After entering the eighth layer, Zong Shou felt that it was really apt that this was called the Nether Jail.

Death Energy spread around this place and what he saw was an ashen white scene.

If he didn’t know that this was one of the layers of the Lu Family Death Jail, Zong Shou would have even believed that this was the Netherworld if someone told him.

The moment he stepped in, he felt the lifeforce and Essence Energy in him starting to go weak.

Zong Shou didn’t hesitate to start using Lin Xuanshuang’s Source Spirit Breathing Technique.

His World Shocking Spiritual Art was slowly being perfected. However, at this moment, it wasn’t as useful as this technique which led one directly to the End Realm.

As expected, he felt his body warm up and recover drastically.

“Not only does Death Energy invade the body, it even steals one’s lifeforce. One day in this place will consume 10 days of lifespan.”

In other words, 20 years here would be 200 years of lifespan…

Zong Shou clenched his fists, his fingernails cutting deeply into his flesh.

He forced himself not to think about it and looked around.

“What is the restriction in this region? Lu Wubing had never come to this world and he couldn’t find out about the situation within from the outside. Master Xuanshuang also didn’t tell me about anything.”

He thought about it while he observed.

In just a moment, a look of surprise appeared on his face. This world was much smaller than he expected.

Looking at the sky, it was not less than 10% of the Spirit Ocean Death Jail.

Using the Instant Space Dao Seeds, it would take 4-6 hours to go from north to south.

In other words, to find someone here would be much easier than he had expected.

However, since it was called the Nether Jail and was ranked the eighth layer of the jail, then this world would be extremely dangerous. The restrictions here would be much stronger than the Spirit Ocean Death Jail.

Thinking about this, his heart rate started to increase drastically.

Anticipation, excitement, his mood was extremely complicated.

It took him a moment to forcefully suppress it. He waved his sleeves and tried to release all the Saint Fire Silver Ants.
