A million prisoners. That was not a small number. This was out of Gao Zhengyang's expectations.
Li Yunfeng explained, "The upper six levels are all special zones. Normally, people with important identities and low cultivation would be placed in the fourth, fifth, and sixth levels. The first, second, and third levels are for Heaven Realm experts. The bottom six levels are for all kinds of heinous criminals, including the Barbarian Race, the Sea Clan, the Demon Clan, and so on. A single level can hold more than a hundred thousand people … "
The Prison of Eighteen Peaks was built ten thousand years ago. As the oldest and most heavily guarded prison, there were too many tricks up its sleeve.
Even a middle-ranking person like Li Yunfeng only knew a small part of the Prison of Eighteen Peaks. He had never been to the lower six levels. He only had a general idea.
In order to survive, Li Yunfeng purposely talked about shocking secrets. Of course, he did not dare to say a word about the real secrets.
"The seventh level is used to imprison women. Once a woman enters, she's finished. The seventh level, Zuo Zhongyun, is the most vicious. Not only is he lustful, but he also allows his subordinates to do whatever they want. The women who enter will become their playthings. Also, they will collude with the guards of other levels to find rich prisoners and send female prisoners to their door for them to play with … "
The more Li Yunfeng spoke, the more excited he became. He exposed the most vicious and dark side of the Prison of Eighteen Peaks.
Gao Zhengyang also felt that he had learned a lot. This Prison of Eighteen Peaks was really filled with evil. It could be called hell on earth.
Ten thousand years was really too long. Who knew how much evil had been accumulated in this dark prison. It was only natural that it had fallen.
"Which devil sect are you from?" Gao Zhengyang suddenly interrupted Li Yunfeng, who was talking non-stop, and asked.
"Uh …" Li Yunfeng's gaze froze and his expression stiffened. "What do you mean, Senior? I don't understand."
Gao Zhengyang glanced at Li Yunfeng but did not speak.
His deep gaze pierced through Li Yunfeng's thoughts like an invisible blade, stabbing into the deepest part of his heart.
Li Yunfeng felt as if he had fallen into an icy cavern. He felt as if his soul had been pierced through. There was an indescribable pain, as well as the fear of death that followed.
Even the gods feared death. Even the crazy Demon Clan feared death, much less a mere mortal.
Li Yunfeng's knees went soft, and he immediately knelt down.
He prostrated himself on the ground, and his whole body was as soft as a worm. He said in a trembling voice, "Senior, we, we are cultivating the secret techniques of the Blood Demon Sect. We are not disciples of the Demon Sect …"
After staying in the Prison of the Eighteen Peaks for too long, Li Yunfeng's soul had long been corrupted. Although he was a Heaven Ranked Ranker, he was forcefully pushed up by the essence energy of resentment and baleful aura.
The secret techniques of the Blood Demon Sect had such benefits. As long as he lost his humanity and sank into depravity, he would be able to obtain the corresponding power.
It was precisely because of these benefits that the demonic sects were able to pass on their legacy and continue to develop and grow.
Li Yunfeng didn't dare to hide anything and told him everything he knew.
The difference between him and Gao Zhengyang was not only in terms of martial arts, but also in terms of willpower.
If one were to say that Gao Zhengyang's mind was firm and lofty, he was a divine dragon that roamed the Nine Heavens. Li Yunfeng was a maggot sucking rotten flesh.
The completely depraved Li Yunfeng did not have the slightest fighting spirit. Therefore, a single look from Gao Zhengyang was enough to destroy all the layers of defense in his heart.
Gao Zhengyang was actually using the visual technique of martial arts. As his martial arts grew stronger, so did the power of the visual technique. For someone like Li Yunfeng, whose soul had fallen, if he wanted to, he could use the visual technique to transmit his powerful fist intent and kill the other party.
Of course, this was based on the premise that the other party had given up all resistance.
Under normal circumstances, a Heaven Ranked Ranker like Li Yunfeng could not use the visual technique to suppress and collapse. Even a Rank 9 Ranker would find it difficult to do so.
"There must be demons hiding in the Prison of the Eighteen Peaks, right?"
Gao Zhengyang asked.
"I really don't know, I really don't know. However, the Blood Fiend Soul Refining Formation absorbed eighty percent of the essence energy and transferred it to the lowest level, that's true … "
Li Yunfeng's face was plastered to the ground, snot and tears coming out of his eyes. He begged, "I'm just a prison guard, this has nothing to do with me. Senior, spare me, spare me."
Gao Zhengyang's tone was calm, but the murderous intent was getting thicker. This made Li Yunfeng realize that something was wrong. He did not dare to resist, and could only cry and beg for mercy.
At this time, the Heaven Compass shone brightly, and a pillar of light shot into the sky from the center of the hall. A burly man wielding a longsword appeared out of thin air in the pillar of light.
Li Yunfeng felt the intense change in essence energy, and instinctively turned his head to look. He immediately recognized the person as Li Lingfeng from the fifth level.
The trace of hope that had just risen in his heart was immediately dashed. His cousin Li Lingfeng was much stronger than him, but he was still far from this golden-armored powerhouse. He would only be sending himself to his death if he came.
Li Lingfeng was in the pillar of light, but he noticed the change in Li Yunfeng's expression. This cousin was crawling on the ground like a dead dog, and his face was ashen. He did not have the slightest bit of joy at seeing reinforcements.
This made Li Lingfeng's heart sink. The situation did not look good! He felt a wave of regret. He should not have rushed over in such a hurry.
But the teleportation of the array was not easy. If he wanted to go back, he would have to activate the array again.
Li Lingfeng braced himself and walked out of the pillar of light. From afar, he cupped his hands and bowed to Gao Zhengyang. "Welcome, Senior. I wonder what advice you have for me."
Seeing how tyrannical Gao Zhengyang was, how would Li Lingfeng dare to make a move? He just wanted to stall for time and wait for reinforcements.
Gao Zhengyang's gaze turned and landed on Li Lingfeng's face.
The moment their gazes met, Li Lingfeng felt his head rumble, and he nearly exploded on the spot. He staggered back over ten steps, and only stopped when he leaned against the pillar supporting the beam.
After a long while, Li Lingfeng barely managed to catch his breath. He raised his head and sneaked a glance at Gao Zhengyang. Seeing that the other party was sitting still, he relaxed a little.
The other party was too terrifying. Just a gaze was like a 30 thousand catty hammer, nearly smashing his divine soul into dregs. Until now, Li Lingfeng's heart was still beating wildly. The essence energy in his body's acupoints was circulating chaotically.
Only now did Li Lingfeng understand why his cousin was kneeling there like a dead dog.
After a moment's hesitation, Li Lingfeng gritted his teeth and knelt down as well. He apologized, "This junior has been rude. Please don't take offense, Senior."
Gao Zhengyang found it rather funny. The experts of the Prison of Eighteen Peaks were unbelievably spineless. They were already kneeling before him before he even made a move.
He would not hold back because of this, but since the other party was so cooperative, there was no need to be anxious.
"Go and call the person in charge here," Gao Zhengyang instructed casually.
Li Lingfeng hurriedly acknowledged. This was exactly what he had been hoping for. There were rank nine powerhouses hidden in the depths of the Prison of Eighteen Peaks.
No matter how strong this fellow was, he was at most a rank nine. In the Prison of Eighteen Peaks, he would inevitably be suppressed by the formations. Even a rank nine powerhouse would not be able to take advantage of him.
Li Lingfeng still had great confidence in the enormous faction behind him. He crawled a few steps to the Heaven Luopan and made a series of hand seals to activate the Great Heaven Encirclement Formation.
He had issued the highest level of alarm. He believed that the people behind him would handle this carefully.
Tianyue Capital was already in a tense situation. If something were to happen here, their thousands of years of hard work would be destroyed.
Gao Zhengyang watched silently. He knew that Li Lingfeng might be up to no good, but he did not pay much attention to it. No matter who the other party was, they would not be able to guess what he was up to.
Meanwhile, he already knew the other party's background. This difference was enough to decide the outcome of the battle.
The Heaven Luopan quickly reacted. Amidst the flashes of spiritual light, an old voice came from the Voice Transmission Stone, "What happened?"
Li Lingfeng stole a glance at Gao Zhengyang. Seeing that he had no intention of speaking, he hurriedly said, "Third Forefather, there's an important guest on the fourth floor."
"Mm," the old voice pondered for a moment before saying, "Very well, this old man shall meet this important guest."
Before he finished speaking, the spiritual light on the Heaven Luopan suddenly gathered and formed the outline of a black-robed old man.
This black-robed old man had gray hair, purple eyes, an aquiline nose, and deep wrinkles. He was thin and frail. One look and it was obvious that he was very old, and his personality must be harsh and heartless.
The figure formed by the spiritual light was very illusory, but it was very powerful. Gao Zhengyang did not dare to underestimate him.
This old man was clearly a rank 9 powerhouse!
"This one, I don't think we've met before, how should I address you?" the black-robed old man said, "This old man is Li Chengying."
Gao Zhengyang got straight to the point, "Are you a demon?"
Li Chengying's expression was indifferent, without a trace of emotion. He said indifferently, "What do you mean?"
Gao Zhengyang said, "Go and call your demon boss out, I'm not interested in talking to you."
Li Chengying showed a hint of anger on his face. Although he was not well-known, he was a true rank 9 powerhouse. Having reached this level, although his soul had already fallen, he was completely different from trash like Li Yunfeng.
His anger also caused the spiritual light of the spiritual light to become unstable.
But Gao Zhengyang just sat there, his aura was as majestic as a mountain. He was not moved at all.
Li Chengying was also a little unsure of Gao Zhengyang's cultivation. It looked like there was no fluctuation of energy, but his aura was so firm. To be able to sit so firmly in front of him, he should be a rank 9 powerhouse!
In the Prison of the Eighteen Peaks, Li Chengying even had the confidence to challenge the world's number one, Lu Jiuyuan. Naturally, he was not afraid of Gao Zhengyang.
But to kill Gao Zhengyang would not be easy. If he made too big of a commotion, they would not be able to cover it up.
But if he made the hidden three-eyed demon king appear with just one sentence, that would be too laughable.
This matter was too big, Li Chengying's mind spun, he was still weighing the pros and cons, trying to think of a better solution. Gao Zhengyang opened his mouth, "Look at you, you must be hiding a demon."
Li Chengying was furious, this guy was actually trying to get information out of him. His background was mysterious, and he came so strangely, he instinctively thought highly of him. He did not expect to be tricked.
"Such words are laughable," Li Chengying said coldly, "Who are you, what do you want?"
As he spoke, Li Chengying began to activate the Great Encirclement Formation. Only by using the formation could he reach the fourth level as quickly as possible.
Li Chengying was not interested in dragging things out, because the three-headed demon king sleeping on the 18th level had already awakened.
This three-headed demon king had been sleeping on the 18th level of the Prison of the Eighteen Peaks for a thousand years. At least half of the essence qi converted by the Blood Fiend Refining Formation was absorbed by this demon.
The Essence Qi, which was transformed from the evil Qi, resentment, and Blood Essence, was like poison to humans. If used for a long time, humans would become a different kind of life.
This process was actually not very comfortable for humans. Only when one's spirit was completely depraved would they like this kind of negative energy.
But the three-headed demon was different. They were born with three heads, and their emotions were complex and ever-changing. Negative emotions were like poison to humans, but they could help them unify their thoughts and emotions.
The three-headed demon king sleeping in the Prison of the Eighteen Peaks for a thousand years was already at rank 9 superior-grade. With the protection of the formation in the Prison of the Eighteen Peaks, its power was endless.
Li Chengying thought that if he and the three-headed demon king worked together, they would be able to kill this enemy.
"Your Demon Lord has woken up!"
Gao Zhengyang suddenly said. Li Chengying jumped in fright.
The Prison of the Eighteen Peaks was protected by layers of formations. How did Gao Zhengyang sense the aura of the three-headed demon king?
What he did not know was that Gao Zhengyang had killed millions of demons in the Devil World, and was extremely sensitive to the aura of demons. He had seen another three-headed demon king, and the powerful aura of the three-headed demon king had left a deep impression on him.
The Omnidirectional Buddha Seal allowed Gao Zhengyang to see the most subtle changes in essence qi.
The three-headed demon king's essence qi was suppressed by the formation, but the evil intent of the three-headed demon king could not be stopped.
The moment the three-headed demon king's consciousness awakened, Gao Zhengyang immediately sensed it.
"Seems like I've gone too far!" Gao Zhengyang sat as steady as a mountain, but he had already made up his mind to leave.
What kind of joke was this? These were two rank 9 powerhouses, and they were suppressed by layers of formations. Any Type 9 powerhouse here would have to leave immediately. Not to mention that he did not have the strength to fight a rank 9 powerhouse head-on.
However, both sides had different goals. This gave Gao Zhengyang some advantage.
"What an interesting human …"
A powerful divine sense spread out from the formation, sweeping towards Gao Zhengyang like a hurricane.
In Gao Zhengyang's senses, the other party's divine sense was as black as ink, so dense that it seemed to be poisonous. Even if it was just divine sense, it made him feel very uncomfortable.
The other party's divine sense had the power to engulf and destroy everything, and this made Gao Zhengyang even more vigilant.
Without a doubt, the other party's strength was far above his.
Gao Zhengyang activated the God Armor without batting an eyelid, and sealed his acupoints and divine palaces. Although the rank 9 Dragon Emperor Armor still had many problems, it was enough to resist this kind of divine sense invasion.
"Three-headed demon brat, come and die." Gao Zhengyang stood up and pointed the halberd in his hand at the void, and shouted in a deep voice.
The three-headed Demon King could not see through Gao Zhengyang's actual strength, and was stimulated by Gao Zhengyang's soaring battle intent, and could not hold it in any longer.
"Let's see what you're capable of …" The three-headed Demon King activated the formation, and its huge body shone with countless rays of spiritual light, and its body started to fade.
After staying in the Prison of the Eighteen Peaks for a thousand years, the three-headed Demon King absorbed essence qi every day, and was already very familiar with the Blood Fiend Soul Refining Formation.
The Heaven's Net Formation was also fused with the Blood Fiend Soul Refining Formation, so activating the formation to teleport was a piece of cake for him.
It was just that his strength was too great, and it interfered with the formation itself. After all, the Heaven's Net Formation was designed by the human race. It did not take into account the situation of the demon race.
The three-headed Demon King forcibly activating the formation also interfered with Li Chengying. He should have arrived earlier, but he was delayed by the formation.
Li Chengying did not care too much, and it made no difference whether he arrived earlier or later.
There were people entering the Prison of the Eighteen Peaks every day, and it was not difficult to sneak in. However, it was not so easy to get out. One had to activate the formation to teleport out.
Li Chengying and the three-headed Demon King entered the formation at the same time, and it actually happened in an instant.
But to Gao Zhengyang, this was more than enough time.
Gao Zhengyang raised his Dragon Emperor Halberd and stabbed at the Heaven Luopan.
The Origin Dragon Fission allowed him to push his strength to the extreme.
Li Yunfeng was a little dumbfounded, and he did not know what Gao Zhengyang was trying to do. The Heaven's Net Formation was connected to the Prison of the Eighteen Peaks, so it was useless to destroy the Heaven Luopan.
Moreover, the Heaven Luopan was not a real magic artifact. It was only a replica of the Eighteen Level Heaven Luopan. As long as the Heaven Luopan was not broken, the formation could not be destroyed.
On the other hand, Li Lingfeng, who was kneeling on the ground, did not think too much. He instinctively wanted to stop Gao Zhengyang, so he leaped and stabbed at him with his spear.
However, Li Lingfeng regretted it the moment he attacked.
Gao Zhengyang's Dragon Emperor Halberd had circulated an unknown amount of power, and when the halberd stabbed forward, the void seemed to be torn apart.
What was even more terrifying was that the halberd's all-destroying power caused him to lose all will to fight.
Li Lingfeng felt that he was like a reckless fly that had rushed into the mouth of an erupting volcano.
Before Gao Zhengyang's halberd arrived, the destructive aura had already penetrated Li Lingfeng's Divine Palace and froze his vital energy martial soul.
The Dragon Emperor Halberd lightly tapped Li Yunfeng's body before stabbing into the Heaven Luopan.
Boundless destructive power flowed through the opened teleportation passage and bombarded the body of the three-headed Demon King at the bottom.
The three-headed Demon King's three heads revealed expressions of anger at the same time. He extended a huge finger and tapped the halberd that was coming at him.
Although they were separated by layers of space, Gao Zhengyang and the three-headed Demon King's Martial Dao Divine Intents collided.
The pure destructive power of the Origin Dragon Fission coupled with the Dragon Emperor Halberd, which weighed over ten thousand kilograms, posed a huge threat even to a Rank Nine expert.
Even with the three-headed Demon King's strength, he had no choice but to resist.
When the two forces collided, the Heaven's Net Formation was the first to collapse. First, the spatial passage was destroyed. The revolving Heaven Luopan could not withstand the feedback force and disintegrated.
The three-headed Demon King revealed an expression of shock and anger. The opponent's target was the Heaven Luopan.
However, part of the credit went to him. The three-headed Demon King did not expect the Heaven Luopan to be so fragile. It was destroyed in a single strike.
Naturally, he did not know that the Dragon Emperor Halberd had the power to break all techniques in the world.
With so many layers of space separating them, it was impossible for Gao Zhengyang to destroy the Heaven Luopan. However, the three-headed Demon King's opening of the spatial passage gave him a chance.
In addition, the three-headed Demon King's forceful teleportation destroyed the formation's stability. He exerted his strength again. The Heaven Luopan was equivalent to being attacked by two experts, one of whom was an accomplice. It was completely defenseless. Naturally, it was a tragedy.
Once the Heaven Luopan was destroyed, Li Chengying could not avoid being affected. She was immediately blasted out of the teleportation formation.
"It's over …" Li Chengying felt despair when he sensed the Heaven Luopan shattering.
The Prison of Eighteen Peaks' formation was maintained by the Heaven Luopan. Once the core artifact was destroyed, the formation would be finished. Without the Vitality Restriction, most of the prisoners in the Prison of Eighteen Peaks lost control.
The most serious thing was that without the formation's restriction, the Vitality Fluctuation here would be transmitted out.
Li Chengying was filled with regret. No expert would have encountered such a problem. However, the three-headed Demon King did not understand formations. Although he could operate them as he wished, he did not have the awareness to protect them.
In the Heaven Luopan Hall on the fourth floor, the Vitality Shock Wave that surged out blasted everything into dust.
The Vitality Shock Wave that defied the heavens did not lose momentum. It went against the flow and blasted out of the entrance of the secret realm.
In the Third City of Tianyue City, the dust that rose into the sky formed a huge mushroom cloud.
The Dragon Emperor Halberd lightly tapped Li Yunfeng's body before piercing into the Heaven Luopan.
Boundless destructive power flowed through the opened teleportation passage and blasted the three-headed Demon King at the lowest level.
Anger appeared on the three-headed Demon King's faces at the same time. He stretched out a huge finger and tapped on the incoming halberd.
Although they were separated by layers of space, Gao Zhengyang and the three-headed Demon King's Martial Dao Divine Intents collided.
The pure destructive Origin Dragon Fission combined with the Dragon Emperor Halberd of over ten thousand kilograms was a destructive force that posed a great threat even to a rank nine expert.
Even with the three-headed Demon King's strength, he had no choice but to resist.
When the two forces collided, the Heaven Luopan Formation was the first to collapse. First, the spatial passage was shattered. The Heaven Luopan, which was in operation, could not withstand the feedback force and disintegrated.
The three-headed Demon King revealed an expression of shock and anger. The opponent's target was the Heaven Luopan.
However, part of the credit went to him. The three-headed Demon King did not expect the Heaven Luopan to be so fragile. It was shattered in a single strike.
Naturally, he did not know that the Dragon Emperor Halberd had the power to break all techniques in the world.
Separated by so many layers of space, Gao Zhengyang should not have been able to destroy the Heaven Luopan. However, the three-headed Demon King opening the spatial passage gave him a chance.
In addition, the three-headed Demon King's forceful teleportation destroyed the formation's stability. He exerted his strength again. The Heaven Luopan was equivalent to being attacked by two experts. One of them was even an ally, so it was completely defenseless. Naturally, it was a tragedy.
Once the Heaven Luopan was destroyed, Li Chengying could not avoid being affected. She was immediately thrown out of the transportation formation.
"It's over …" Li Chengying felt despair when she sensed the Heaven Luopan shattering.
The Prison of Eighteen Peaks' formation was maintained by the Heaven Luopan. Once the core artifact was destroyed, the formation would be finished. Without the vitality restriction, more than half of the prisoners in the Prison of Eighteen Peaks lost control.
The most serious thing was that without the formation restriction, the vitality fluctuation would be transmitted out.
Li Chengying was filled with regret. No expert would have encountered such a problem. Unfortunately, the three-headed Demon King did not understand formations. Although he could operate them as he wished, he did not have the consciousness to protect them.
In the fourth layer of the Heaven Luopan Hall, the vitality that surged out blasted everything into dust.
The vitality that defied the heavens did not lose momentum. It continued going against the flow and blasted out of the entrance of the secret realm.
