412: Enter the ancient prison!
“Your Highness Chen Fan, we will be entering the Desolate Ancient Prison in three minutes. We need to pass through a special aisle!” the Champion Undying piloting the spaceship gently reminded him.
“Alright, just keep flying. I’m fine!” Chen Fan watched the white vortex getting closer and closer, white flames burning in his eyes.
The Desolate Ancient Prison, here I come!
Then, Chen Fan sat on the sofa, quietly waiting for the time to arrive.
He picked up a spirit fruit from the side and ate it casually.
At the same time, Chen Fan recalled the tenth and eleventh forms of the Blood Blade Manual.
If there was one thing Chen Fan gained the most from slaying King Yanzhu this time, it was breaking the bottleneck of the Blood Blade Manual and entering a new level.
This was also the most important reason why Chen Fan was able to fight his Heavenly Bridge fifteenth-level opponent to a draw.
As for the remaining five moves, Chen Fan had no confidence at all.
Because currently, neither his true body nor his clone was anything more than a Domain Lord.
Even with the nutrient capsules provided by the Virtual Universe Corporation, Chen Fan had only managed to advance to Domain Lord ninth-rank.
Before becoming a World Lord, Chen Fan speculated that his combat power wouldn't be able to achieve another major leap.
Unless… Buzz buzz!
Accompanied by a crisp trembling sound, Chen Fan's spaceship was already close to the white vortex.
Just like penetrating a world barrier, Chen Fan felt the spaceship seemed to be slowly entering something tough.
“Your Highness, don’t worry, this is a common phenomenon when entering the Desolate Ancient Prison!”
Seemingly noticing Chen Fan’s confusion, a nearby Champion Undying patiently explained, calming Chen Fan’s agitated state of mind.
“Mm.” Chen Fan nodded, then widened his eyes.
He was about to enter the Desolate Ancient Prison.
Chen Fan’s anticipation didn't decrease but increased, and he felt a subtle excitement.
Amidst a crisp cracking sound, Chen Fan felt the spaceship he was in seemed to have entered a new space.
In an instant, Chen Fan felt his comprehension of the various Origin Laws become even clearer.
“External view fully simulated!” The bald Champion Undying gave the order, and the surrounding environment shifted, revealing the void outside the spaceship.
“Wow, so beautiful!”
Chen Fan’s eyes lit up as he looked at the starry night sky around him, his spaceship like a small fish.
Further away, seemingly a station, a red light shot up into the sky, illuminating the endlessly distant void all around in a blood-red hue.
“What is that?” Chen Fan asked the Champion Undying beside him.
“That is the Suppression Prison Palace built by our Virtual Universe Corporation in this Desolate Ancient Prison, for the purpose of fighting a great war against the worlds of the Desolate Ancient Prison alongside various allied armies.” The Champion Undying, not old but completely bald, stared blankly at the towering light pillar, his eyes somewhat mesmerized.
“That blood-colored light pillar is a high-level domain treasure of our Virtual Universe Corporation, used to counteract the weakening effect of the Desolate Ancient Prison’s natural conditions on us.”
“If not for it, even a Champion Undying entering this Desolate Ancient Prison would at most only be able to display the strength of a Marquis-level Immortal; that’s how terrifying it is!”
At this point, the bald Champion felt a shiver of fear, and scenes of tragic events flashed through his mind.
“I understand!” Upon hearing this, Chen Fan nodded and did not press further.
“So this is the Suppression Prison Palace!” Chen Fan’s gaze quickly swept around.
The entire Suppression Prison Palace was incredibly vast, like huge floating islands suspended high in the sky.
Around these floating islands, there were also vast, boundless continents.
Both on the floating islands and the continents, buildings stretched endlessly, and the towering battle intent and killing intent even made Chen Fan secretly astonished.
Around them, massive spaceships were on patrol.
From a distance, it looked very much like a military camp fully preparing for battle.
And at the very front of this giant military camp was the world where the Desolate Ancient Prison was located.
The two emitted completely different auras, distinctly separated!
This scene quickly drew Chen Fan’s thoughts back to Earth, when facing beast tides, weren’t human armies and martial artists patrolling just like this?
“Your Highness Chen Fan, we can only send you this far. Next, Suppression Prison Palace staff will specially pick you up!” the bald Champion said with an apologetic look.
“It’s alright, this kind of thing is normal!” Chen Fan smiled and waved his hand.
Whoosh!
As the hatch opened, Chen Fan, fully armed and carrying two heavy Battle Blades, flew straight out.
No sooner had he exited the Virtual Universe Corporation’s spaceship than he entered the spaceship that had come to greet him from the Suppression Prison Palace.
“Your Highness, welcome to our side!” The middle-aged man in black armor sensed the mark left by the Virtual Universe Corporation on Chen Fan and said respectfully.
Even though the Chen Fan before him only had the aura of a ninth-rank Domain Lord, he was not someone a black-armored Marquis-level Immortal could easily disregard.
“Mm!” Chen Fan nodded.
“I presume Your Highness must want to enter this Desolate Ancient Prison, right?” the black-armored Marquis respectfully said.
“Then, please follow me!”
Next, Chen Fan rode this F-class combat spaceship to a continent.
On this continent, there was nothing else but a milky-white lake.
“Your Highness, everyone who wishes to enter the Desolate Ancient Prison must first soak in this Spirit-Fading Lake for a few hours to shed the chaotic auras on their bodies, and then they can directly enter the world of the Desolate Ancient Prison!”
Seemingly seeing the confusion in Chen Fan’s brows, the black-armored Marquis patiently explained.
“Alright, I understand!” In fact, Chen Fan had already known all this before coming, but when he actually saw it, it was a different sight altogether.
So, Chen Fan unhesitatingly jumped from the spaceship into this giant lake, several thousand miles in circumference, allowing the milky-white lake water to completely immerse his entire body.
Soon, Chen Fan had already sunk a thousand meters below the lake’s surface.
Just like that, Chen Fan sat cross-legged at the bottom of the lake, like an old monk in meditation… Time flowed by, little by little.
Three hours later, Chen Fan opened his eyes and directly broke through the surface of the lake, shooting up into the sky.
“Congratulations, Your Highness, you can now enter the Desolate Ancient Prison!” In the sky, the long-waiting black-armored Marquis said respectfully.
“Mm, thanks!”
Chen Fan simply nodded in gratitude, then flew towards a certain part of the Suppression Prison Palace.
There, there was a special way to enter the Desolate Ancient Prison.
This method was difficult for others to obtain, but for core members of the Virtual Universe Corporation like Chen Fan and personal disciples of Venerable Qiu Bai, it was very easy to gain access to this channel.
After seven verifications of correct information, Chen Fan arrived above the Desolate Ancient Prison from a mottled passage resembling a spatial corridor.
Finally, Chen Fan leaped from the passage entrance, plunging towards the Desolate Ancient Prison.
I’m here!
