- Chapter 1092 - 1047: Opportunity in the Dark Prison
In Law Transmitter Zhou’s private Small World, nearly all the inhabitants were lone survivors of clan massacres. Those like You Chisong, whose families were still intact, were few and far between.
Although they all understood You Chisong’s background, it was said that he had the heart to bring his entire family to burial.
Nevertheless, given that the safety and life of everyone were at stake, Zhou’s followers still held some vigilance towards You Chisong.
That included but was not limited to: someone always keeping an eye on You Chisong, never allowing him to be alone. You Chisong was not privy to the secret technique required to open the channel to the private Small World; others always accompanied him whenever he entered or exited. He was not allowed to participate in crucial missions. Instead, he was given the most trivial tasks to start with…
Even though he was subjected to such discriminatory treatment, You Chisong never complained.
He was diligent and uncomplaining in his tasks.
His performance was noted by everyone, and gradually, their attitudes toward him began to improve.
That day, he finally had the opportunity to participate in a real mission of the organization.
“The objective of this mission is to infiltrate the Immortal Alliance Hell and rescue a predecessor imprisoned at the very bottom,” someone explained.
“This predecessor was also a member of the Law Transmitters. However, due to his upright and unyielding nature, he offended many other Law Transmitters. Around five hundred years ago, when Senior Zhou left the Dharma Transmitter Council, he was also taken advantage of and thrown into the Dark Prison.”
“The Immortal Alliance Hell is located in the Rift Space of the Central Four States, where the most vicious prisoners of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals throughout ancient and modern times are suppressed. These prisoners often have some special value to the Immortal Alliance, so they are not executed but rather strictly guarded.”
“The Immortal Alliance Hell is heavily guarded, but Senior Zhou has already arranged an inside man. We just need to disguise ourselves as cultivators from the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance headquarters and produce the transfer order to bring the target out.”
“The functionality of the Tianxuan Mirror is severely damaged, and the connection between the Immortal Alliance Hell and the Immortal Alliance Headquarters is also affected. We must seize this rare opportunity while a new verification method for communication has not yet been established.”
…
When the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals retrieves prisoners from the Dark Prison, it is often done with three squads of ten people each, moving in formation.
You Chisong was chosen this time to be a part of the execution team; he was taught the essentials to pay attention to while impersonating and the real Array Technique for escort.
After half a day, they were quite convincing in their roles.
“The conditions in the Dark Prison are special. Since Senior Zhou cannot go himself, we have to rely on ourselves this time.”
“The mission is difficult, and there’s a possibility of failure. Everyone must be prepared to sacrifice themselves at any time. In case the operation is unintentionally exposed, to prevent a Soul Search, everyone must immediately unravel the forbidden formation within their Divine Souls. It’s better to be completely annihilated than to let the Immortal Alliance get even the slightest bit of information!”
“If anyone is hesitant or unwilling, you can opt-out now.”
There was silence for a long while; no one spoke.
So, the plan was tentatively set.
Once the mission began, they would leave the Small World. They wouldn’t carry any personal items that could identify them, and Li Fan would lose his sensing of these people.
However, at the beginning of the eavesdropping, Li Fan had already infiltrated the You family and stolen a drop of You Chisong’s primordial blood essence.
With the bloodline sensing, Li Fan could still vaguely lock onto You Chisong’s location.
He quietly followed behind.
The thirty-person cultivator squad, all dressed in black robes familiar to Li Fan. Even the auras they emitted were as cold and deadly as those of the orthodox black-clothed cultivators of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals.
“Law Transmitter Zhou really has some tricks up his sleeve,” Li Fan thought to himself.
Following the trail, he arrived above a Deep Valley at the border of the Central Immortal Alliance Four States.
White clouds swirled around, obscuring the bottom of the valley.
The leading black-clothed cultivator took out a jade seal, casting a white light that shone into the depths of the valley.
The Misthaven Ocean parted instantly, and the cultivator squad entered without hesitation.
Li Fan, however, did not follow them in but merely observed from a distance.
From the depths of the valley, from within the so-called Dark Prison, Li Fan felt a dangerous aura.
His goal was not to storm the prison. It was better to wait outside until they completed the mission.
The mission seemed to go exceptionally smoothly.
After half a day, the closed Misthaven Ocean opened once again.
A squad of thirty people flew out from the Misthaven Ocean with a white-haired elderly man locked in the center.
At first, everything appeared rather normal.
Later on, the speed of their escape became faster and faster.
“Once we leave the influence range of the Rift Space, immediately open the portal to Small World!”
The leading black-clothed cultivator suppressed the excitement in his heart and transmitted his voice.
However, the rescued white-haired Dharma Transmitter didn’t seem to have any emotional fluctuations about being freed from his predicament.
He simply closed his eyes, indifferent to everything happening around him.
With the situation being so urgent, the group had no time for explanations. They simply fled with the white-haired elder at breakneck speed.
Just when they finally retreated to a safe boundary and were about to cast the spell to open the Small World portal,
“Who’s there?”
Just then, the leader of the cultivators cast his gaze toward Li Fan’s position and bellowed loudly.
At the same time, a burst of White Sword Light erupted, instantly slashing towards Li Fan.
His companions also quickly reacted, sparing no effort as lights and various spells and techniques were hurled at Li Fan without reservation.
Yet, what terrified them was the fact that all the attacks seemed to be swallowed by the sea, absorbed and disappearing without a trace as they neared their foe.
They didn’t even cause the slightest ripple.
“Who exactly are you?” the leading black-clothed cultivator asked gravely.
Li Fan slowly revealed his figure without responding to him.
Instead, he looked directly at the white-haired elder and said aloud, “Senior, don’t be deceived by these people. They are pretending to be from Law Transmitter Zhou’s group, staging this act to rescue you from Dark Prison. It’s all to gain your trust.”
“The real Law Transmitter Zhou is already dead!”
The dozens of people escorting the white-haired elder were all visibly shaken upon hearing Li Fan’s words.
Their fake solemn air disappeared, replaced by a sense of panic and confusion.
“You…” The leading cultivator was unable to hide his shock.
But he quickly regained composure and hastily tried to explain to the white-haired elder.
“Senior, don’t be misled by this person! I have Senior Zhou’s token right here!” he said, taking out a red rope knot to establish his identity.
In the face of the standoff between the two opposing groups, the white-haired elder, who had been observing the situation, finally opened his eyes.
He glanced at the red rope knot and snorted coldly, “What token…”
“You’re not using this crude trick for the first time. Do you think I’d fall for it?”
“If Zhou had really sent you, then why didn’t she come herself?”
Unexpectedly faced with the white-haired elder’s line of thought, the lead black-clothed cultivator was left speechless.
The white-haired elder then glanced at Li Fan and shook his head slightly, “Young man, you don’t seem like a good person.”
“Zhou would definitely not take someone like you into her service…”
The white-haired elder pondered, “Both sides are fake?”
