The two figures were dumbfounded. Running was out of the question; they had no mana left in their bodies. Competing in physical speed was now a colossal joke.
They walked forward despondently, dressed in loose black robes, gradually revealing their true faces.
Their faces were pale as if painted white, with lips as red as blood, giving them an eerie and terrifying appearance.
Their eyes were large and deep, with pupils as dark as night, as if endless shadows and abysses could be seen within.
Their bodies were slender and flexible, muscles taut as if ready to explode with incredible speed at any mont. Their fingers were long and nimble, extending like ghostly claws that sent chills down one's spine.
Chen Xun and Black Bull's eyes narrowed. Wasn't this the 'Ghost Face Clan'? Such a race didn't exist in Xuanwei Heaven; they had only glimpsed it in the compendium of myriad races. This race was naturally adept at assassination, average in duels, and lacked any outstanding talents.
"Ghost Face Clan?"
"Yes, yes... Fellow Daoist, you have a keen eye!"
Hearing this calm and peaceful voice, they shuddered and quickly responded. They ca to this Immortal Prison seeking survival, hoping to leave alive, not to die here!
"Moo?" Black Bull let out a puzzled call. The Ghost Face Clan mingling with spirit beast races? Truly, in the grand world of the Immortal Prison, anything unreasonable could happen.
Chen Xun's eyes showed a hint of interest as he sized them up. To be honest, in all his years in the grand world, aside from so sea creatures, he hadn't seen many other races.
He suddenly smiled, "How should we address you two fellow inmates? We brothers are reasonable people, no need to worry about us harming you."
Black Bull nodded with a simple and honest expression. Being in jail, there wasn't much else to consider.
Damn...
The two were terrified, looking at the Tian Gang Giant Rhinoceros lying on the ground like a dead dog, still bleeding, breathing more out than in.
Paired with the friendly and naive expressions of the man and the bull, anyone unaware might think they were great philanthropists!
"Senior... no, Fellow Daoist, just call Ghost Face."
One of the Ghost Face Clan forced a smile, trying to appear harmless, "No, just call Little Ghost!"
"You two fellow Daoists, just call ... Ghost Fiend."
After Ghost Fiend spoke, his eyes widened, glancing sideways at his fellow clan mber. You even took the na Little Ghost?!!
They had their own nas, but in the human-dominated world, they naturally needed to choose nas that strong individuals could understand to facilitate communication and avoid... being beaten to a pulp.
"Little Ghost, Ghost Fiend."
Chen Xun chuckled, waving them over, "Co closer, no need to stay so far away."
"Yes!"
"...Yes."
They bowed their heads and cupped their hands, aware that the human race was one of the strongest in the grand world. They naturally knew the etiquette of the human cultivation world, as it was a mandatory course for entering society.
Black Bull raised its head slightly. The nas of the Ghost Face Clan were nothing compared to the majestic na Xin Black Bull that its eldest brother gave it. Jinyu had explained the aning to them well.
In no ti, the two Ghost Face Clan mbers had approached Chen Xun, appearing humble and submissive. Dying here ant no one would stand up for them.
For the first ti, they strongly wished to escape the Immortal Prison, return to the grand world, and never break the rules again, returning to being ghosts!
Chen Xun sat cross-legged on the ground, still recovering, and pondered, "Fellow inmates, what did you do to end up here? What is this place in the Immortal Prison, and are there any taboos or rules set by powerful figures here?"
Little Ghost and Ghost Fiend exchanged glances, knowing they were newcors to the Immortal Prison, likely having resisted during their capture.
Little Ghost stepped forward, bending so low he was almost level with the seated Chen Xun, "To be honest, Fellow Daoist, we were blinded by mid-grade spirit stones and took a job to cripple and intimidate soone..."
Ghost Fiend's face turned quite embarrassed, adding from the side, "Who knew the opponent was an Earth rank spirit seal holder, and a Unity True Lord suppressed us, sending us to the Immortal Prison for a hundred years."
Hearing this, Little Ghost's pale face flushed slightly, a bit agitated, "After we get out, we still need to go to Star Pivot to have a good argunt with that person, not a single spirit stone less!"
"Exactly!"
Ghost Fiend suddenly shouted, righteously, "When we took the job, that person didn't ntion the opponent was an Earth rank spirit seal holder. If they don't compensate us, our clan elders will personally intervene. It's against the rules!"
What talents...
Chen Xun shook his head with a smile, completely unfazed by their earlier disrespect. It was too childish.
Black Bull also sat down, placing a hoof on the Tian Gang Giant Rhinoceros. Its essence blood couldn't be wasted.
This Immortal Prison gathered creatures from the grand world, making the collection of essence blood from myriad races much more efficient than in the ngmu Sea Region.
Moreover, there were no rules here, no fear of offending anyone. If anyone dared to attack them, they should be prepared to offer their essence blood.
Black Bull's eyes glead at the thought.
Chen Xun glanced at Black Bull, understanding its intention, and turned his gaze back to the Ghost Face Clan, "Hmm, continue."
"Fellow Daoist, we've been in the Immortal Prison for thirty years, with seventy more to go before release."
Ghost Fiend swallowed hard, never imagining a hundred years could be so unbearable. Here, they couldn't cultivate, ditate, or retreat, not even sleep, with slaughter everywhere, "This is the edge of the Void Refinent phase Immortal Prison, where sinners first arrive."
But he paused, knowing that lurking at the edge was quite risky.
You could never predict the cultivation level of those arriving, everything depended on chance and luck.
For instance, this ti they stumbled upon a celestial mountain, hoping the arriving sinners wouldn't react in ti to losing their divine sense. But now, they had no chance to escape, life and death uncertain.
Ghost Fiend sighed inwardly, regretful, and continued:
"And this boundless place has interconnecting barriers. It's said the entire Immortal Prison is larger than a heavenly domain, but there's nowhere to hide, extrely dangerous."
"Moreover, so bloodthirsty beings stay in the Immortal Prison, not thinking of leaving until their lifespan ends."
"Such sinners have a significant characteristic: their murderous aura reaches the sky. Even if Fellow Daoist is hundreds or thousands of miles away, you can feel this terrifying aura. The only option is to flee!"
Ghost Fiend shuddered at this point, knowing this murderous aura ca from slaying those of the sa realm, not from casually killing weaker beings. Their physical strength was imasurable.
Imasurable physical strength...
The two suddenly felt uneasy, as if realizing sothing, their pupils gradually filled with fear, looking at the friendly and naive man and bull.
"Murderous aura..."
Chen Xun's voice was low, a smile forming at the corner of his mouth, his eyes suddenly turning cold and rciless, "Fellow inmates, is this what you're talking about?"
As his words fell, boom!!
The ground inscribed with runes trembled violently, a monstrous bloodthirsty aura surged from Chen Xun's body, like a bloodstorm, endless murderous aura reaching the heavens!
Such a terrifying scene radiated for hundreds, thousands of miles, as if enveloped by a bloody ocean. Ghost Fiend and Little Ghost's pale faces turned ashen.
They collapsed on the rune-inscribed ground, staring blankly around. What kind of filth... was sent to the Immortal Prison... what heinous cri did they commit?!!!
