59: The bloody soil? The black egg moves! Surprise!
“Then, Senior, how were you imprisoned here? What was your cultivation level back then?”
Chu Ying asked curiously.
“Half-Step Great Saint.” The Blood-haired Old Man recalled, sighing with emotion.
If he had to do it again, he would still make that choice.
But, she still couldn't come back...
“What?”
Chu Ying's eyes widened, and he smacked his lips repeatedly.
Half-Step Great Saint?!
Damn it...
This level of cultivation could almost let him walk sideways in Tai Xuan Holy Land, right?
Even the Old Ancestors probably only had this level of cultivation. Isn't this clearly the strongest in the Eastern Wilderness?
“Since Senior possesses such heaven-reaching cultivation, you shouldn't have been unable to escape and imprisoned here for three thousand years, right?” Chu Ying couldn't help but wonder.
The Blood-haired Old Man gave a bitter smile.
“If being imprisoned here for three thousand years could revive her, I would willingly accept it, even if my Lifespan ran out.”
He sighed softly, and in his ancient, turbid eyes, he could faintly recall that resolute woman with a fierce temperament.
Perhaps if it weren't for him, she and the Tai Xuan Holy Son who was about to succeed as the Holy Lord would have also achieved perfect cultivation...
“Details?” Chu Ying was genuinely intrigued.
Although he scoffed at true feelings in the world, he still believed they could exist.
It was just that such beauty might not happen to him.
“No...”
The Blood-haired Old Man shook his head, seemingly unwilling to bring up that beautiful past that could only remain in his memories.
“...”
Chu Ying was speechless.
Alright, alright, alright!
So you like to stir up other people's emotions and then say nothing, right?
Chu Ying took a deep breath and got to the point: “Senior, I've listened. Now tell me, how can I escape from here?”
“I'm still young, I have Elders above me and children below me, I can't be imprisoned here!”
The Blood-haired Old Man smiled and said, “Look down at your feet.”
Chu Ying was startled, lowered his head, and found that the sand beneath his feet was soft, but it had a swirling tendency.
“This place is an excellent prison, so Tai Xuan Holy Land built it into the Sky Prison.”
“What you see is the erosion azure blood soil. Its appearance is not much different from ordinary soil, but its density is extremely high. If you fall into it, your entire body's blood and essence will be sucked dry by the swirling crushing force, as if you were dismembered and pulverized. Even a Saint Lord Realm Cultivator would find it hard to resist.”
“In the ancient era, if such a strange object were to develop sentience, it would be an incredibly terrifying creature.”
The Blood-haired Old Man's words sent a chill down Chu Ying's spine, and he quickly made his body float in the air, avoiding direct contact with the soil at the bottom of the pond.
“No, Senior, are you tricking me?” Chu Ying's eyes widened.
Is he telling me to escape from here?
“Beneath this erosion azure blood soil is a hidden river of the Eastern Wilderness Southern Region. Although it's turbulent and rapid, if you can pass through this layer of erosion azure blood soil, you can truly escape.”
After the Blood-haired Old Man finished speaking, Chu Ying stared at him, dumbfounded.
“Senior, do you think I look like someone who could get through?”
“Also, Senior, why don't you go through yourself?”
Chu Ying's mouth twitched, and he said speechlessly.
“This erosion azure blood soil is also one of my seals; I can't get out.” The Blood-haired Old Man shook his head.
“I've already told you the method, so I haven't broken my word.”
The Blood-haired Old Man smiled faintly and closed his eyes to rest.
Chu Ying sighed inwardly, truly exasperated with this old geezer.
“If I move the Seal upwards, it will definitely be detected. Then an Elder will come over, either to repair the Seal or to impose another Restriction on me...”
“The Sky Prison is a crucial area of Tai Xuan Holy Land, even more strictly guarded than the Forbidden Ground.”
“If no one comes to save me, there's no way I can escape through the exit.”
After analyzing the situation, Chu Ying also felt a wave of despair.
He couldn't help but feel angry.
Damn Ye Qingxian!
When I, Chu Ying, escape, one day, I will definitely make you fall into my hands!
Even now, Chu Ying's conviction remained firm.
Amidst his despair, he remembered that he was a cheat user.
With a cheat, would he die so easily?
If he were truly imprisoned and died here, wouldn't he be disgracing all the Blue Star transmigrators throughout history?
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Suddenly.
Chu Ying's mind vibrated for no reason, as if he felt some kind of heartbeat.
He frowned, looked around, and then suddenly looked at his Storage Ring.
In the void space of the Storage Ring, a black egg with nine ferocious dragon head patterns was shaking.
“A descendant of the Old Nine Nether Hound?”
Chu Ying hadn't forgotten this egg; the creature inside the egg would be the last Nine Nether Hound in this world.
Feeling Chu Ying's thoughts, the black egg shook more violently.
It seemed to be conveying a message to Chu Ying.
“You want to go out?”
Chu Ying asked subconsciously.
The black egg swayed back and forth, as if nodding.
Chu Ying pondered for a moment, thinking that the egg's abnormal movement at this time might be related to his current environment.
Could it have a way to help him escape from here?
The next second.
Chu Ying's mind moved, and he took out the black egg.
The moment the black egg was taken out, the Blood-haired Old Man, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them, and sharp gazes shot out from his eyes.
“Senior, what are you doing? This is my treasure, don't even think about it.”
Chu Ying hugged the black egg and moved away from the Blood-haired Old Man, his eyes vigilant.
The Blood-haired Old Man's eyes were surprised and bewildered.
He actually felt immense pressure from an egg, as if it originated from the depths of his Bloodline.
This was somewhat unbelievable, wasn't it?
Although his title was “White-browed Eagle King,” he wasn't from the Eagle Clan, but from the Ancient Heavenly Devil Peng Clan!
His clan's descendants were extremely rare, and their inheritance was difficult. Although their Bloodline was extremely terrifying, it was no weaker than that of the Golden-Winged Great Peng Bird Clan.
However, because there were too few members in his clan, and he was relatively low-key among the Demon Clan, very few people in the Demon Clan had even heard of his clan.
And he had been trapped here for three thousand years; perhaps his descendants had all withered away, with only a few remaining.
Perhaps with the care of three or five friends, a Bloodline might barely continue.
At this thought, he couldn't help but sigh again.
However, he was even more puzzled.
What kind of egg could make him, who possessed the Ancient Heavenly Devil Peng Bloodline and was even superior to the Golden-Winged Great Peng Bird Clan, feel a tremor in his Bloodline?
Chu Ying hugged the black egg and walked to the side, trying to communicate with it mentally:
“Hey, I brought you out. Do you have any way to help me escape from here?”
However, the black egg couldn't communicate with Chu Ying; it just kept shaking, trying to break free from Chu Ying.
This made Chu Ying frown.
He pondered for a moment and placed the black egg on the ground.
It was at this instant that Chu Ying's body actually began to sink!
Looking at the surrounding soil again, it was collapsing wildly!
“What? This?!”
The Blood-haired Old Man, who was sealed here, was also stunned.
His gaze suddenly fell on the black egg, and his pupils sharply contracted.
This egg was actually devouring the “erosion azure blood soil”!
Chu Ying also reacted, and he quickly hugged the black egg, which was about half his height, and drilled directly downwards.
If not now, then when?
Heaven truly helps me!
Chu Ying felt a surge of relief and emotion in his heart: encountering the Old Nine Nether Hound in the Forbidden Ground was truly his great fortune!
