Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World

Chapter 911: Chapter 457: Fate Is Smiling Upon Him (2)

If there were a choice, it naturally wouldn’t want to be a prison guard here.

Unfortunately, it had no choice, being appointed by the higher demons to guard this place.

”But there’s no need for you to worry about anything.”

”All these years, this prison has never had any issues.”

”No one has dared raid the prison here.”

”And of course, the human cultivators imprisoned inside could never escape.”

”As long as we’re careful, we’ll be able to complete our work.”

The blue demon guard comforted.

It had been a prison guard here for over a thousand years, never encountering any issues.

But being a prison guard here had little benefit, so few demons could endure for long.

Often, after a while, a batch of guards would resign.

And then new guards would come in.

The reason it managed to stay here so long was because it had no other choice.

After all, it committed a grave mistake and was punished to serve as a guard here, needing at least a three-thousand-year term to end it.

”That’s good.”

The red demon guard breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, thinking that if even the old guard said so, then the security of this human prison shouldn’t have any major problems.

Surely the prison wouldn’t have issues just as it took office.

If anything really went wrong, it would be terribly unlucky.

”Alright, enough talking.”

”Follow me into the prison for an inspection now.”

”Our work isn’t just about guarding the main gate.”

”We also need to check on those imprisoned human cultivators.”

”Ensuring none of these human cultivators are dead.”

The blue demon guard said in a deep voice.

It took out the token from itself, directly opening the prison door.

Bang~~

In an instant, the barrier of the entire prison was opened.

The two demon prison guards also walked in through the entrance.

What they didn’t know was that at the moment they opened the prison door, a figure silently followed them, sneaking into the prison as well.

Swish swish swish!!!

The two demon prison guards walked along the long underground staircase, having no idea how far they traveled, eventually reaching the innermost area of the prison.

The place had been hollowed out and constructed with numerous cells.

Each cell imprisoned a human cultivator.

No one knew exactly how many people were held here.

But every human cultivator inside the cells was bound with thick, black chains.

Each black chain was engraved with twisted demon runes.

It was precisely because of these black chains that their powers were sealed, making it impossible for them to escape from this cell regardless of their cultivation level.

When these two demon prison guards arrived, they immediately attracted the attention of many human prisoners.

”You bastards, come on, just kill me.”

”A bunch of cowardly demons, you make me sick.”

”Is this all you demons are capable of? Do you dare fight me?”

”Let me out if you have the guts, I’ll kill you in a heartbeat.”

Numerous human cultivators cursed and yelled angrily.

”Just ants, and you dare speak to me this way?!”

The red demon prison guard’s face changed upon hearing this, anger boiling, thinking that they were just a bunch of homeless dogs and yet dared to speak such blatant blasphemy to it, utterly unaware of their limitations.

”Ignore them.”

”These guys know they can’t escape, so they’re deliberately speaking to provoke us, they just want to seek death.”

The blue demon prison guard said indifferently.

”I see.”

The red demon guard suddenly realized, evidently knowing that this group of human cultivators realized it was new and deliberately said such things to provoke it, just wanting to use its strength to kill them.

If it acted impulsively, it might really have fallen into the trap.

After all, these guys inherently wanted to die.

”Hehe, just a group of dying people.”

”Perhaps you don’t know yet, thanks to your identities, we’ve been thriving in the Great Xuan Dynasty.”

”Recently, we’ve established thousands of demon caves within the Great Xuan Dynasty’s territory.”

”I reckon it won’t be long before the Human Race is entirely exterminated.”

”By then, even if you wish not to die, you won’t have that choice.”

The blue demon guard mockingly laughed.

It didn’t mind revealing some news from the outside world to these human prisoners.

What?!

This statement caused the faces of numerous human cultivators inside the prison to change dramatically. They never expected the situation outside to have deteriorated to this extent.

All of this was because they were captured.

If they hadn’t fallen into the hands of demons, the humans wouldn’t have been driven to such a precarious state.

Each one was furious to the extreme, struggling desperately, rattling the chains on their bodies.

Unfortunately, their cultivation had long been sealed, leaving them akin to mortals.

It was utterly impossible to break free.

They couldn’t even commit suicide.

”Hmm, no humans have died, that’s not bad.”

”Today’s patrol ends here, let’s leave.”

Seeing the despair on the faces of these human cultivators, the blue demon guard felt very satisfied, even delighted.

Despite being annoyed by the curses of these human cultivators, it couldn’t strike at them, otherwise, it might just be fulfilling their wishes.

But now by revealing some outside news and bringing these foul-mouthed human cultivators to despair, it felt very satisfying, this is the result of offending it.

However, it didn’t want to stay here long, as these human cultivators had such vile mouths.

It was quieter outside the prison.

Swish swish swish!!!

The two demon guards quickly left the place, returning to the prison gate to guard it quietly.

The prison was left with just the group of imprisoned human cultivators.

Instantly, the place fell silent, exceptionally eerie in its quietness.

Even the drop of a pin on the ground could be heard clearly.

”Do you think what that demon said just now is true or false?”

At this moment, an old voice spoke, carrying immense authority in its tone.

”Ice Soul King, whether what the other party said is true or false, it no longer holds any meaning for us.”

”We are sealed by the Forbidden Spirit Magic Lock, completely unable to escape.”

Speaking was the Spirit Feather King, an Integration Cultivator, and a King of the Kingdom under the Great Xuan Dynasty.

Unfortunately, he fell into the demon’s trap and was captured and sealed here.

Besides him, there were also four Integration Cultivators imprisoned here, all of whom were kings of the Great Xuan Dynasty.

The most powerful among them was the Ice Soul King.

Additionally, there were three other Integration Cultivators, namely the Giant Stone King, Phantom King, and Flame Tower King.

If in the outside world, they were Great Powers of the Human Race.

Regrettably, here, they were merely prisoners, at the mercy of the demons.

”Yes, honestly, I think this might be true.”

”After all, the demons replaced us.”

”Using our identities, they’ve become unchecked within the Great Xuan Dynasty.”

”Such happenings aren’t surprising.”

”I can’t believe our mistake caused the death of the Human Race.”

The Giant Stone King said through clenched teeth, very unwilling.

The other human cultivators remained silent.

They had nothing left to say.

Now they were just prisoners. Even knowing the outside world’s situation, they were powerless.

Each one was utterly desperate.

Swish!

At this moment, Jiang Fan, using the power of the Celestial Cicada Spirit Leaf, bypassed the demon guards, followed them, and very inconspicuously sneaked inside. He quietly observed this group of imprisoned human cultivators, not speaking.

Although he was deep within enemy territory, where the slightest mistake could lead to his death, he felt no fear, but rather, confidence.

Because fate was smiling upon him.

Bang~~

At this moment, a message once again seeped into Jiang Fan’s mind: ”You finally arrived at the prison holding numerous human cultivators. Seeing so many imprisoned human cultivators, you naturally want to help, but you’re unaware that if you act recklessly, not only will you fail to rescue these human cultivators, but you might end up causing their deaths. This is because among these human prisoners, someone has already become a traitor, serving as a slave to the demons.”

What?!

Perceiving this fate’s warning, Jiang Fan’s pupils contracted. Initially, he wanted to act immediately to rescue these human cultivators, but now it seemed the situation wasn’t that simple.

If he acted rashly, he might find himself trapped here as well.
