Do not underestimate the Tianyuan Prison Suppression Tower, and do not underestimate the prisoners on each floor, because they are all seasoned veterans.
Night Emperor, who had just broken through to Half-step Martial Saint, was overconfident and even wanted to take on multiple opponents at once. As a result, the moment he entered, he was immediately gang-beaten.
That very day, the news spread.
Who spread it wasn’t important. What mattered was that Li Qingyang and the others all knew about it.
Being able to beat Junior Brother Ye so badly that he had to be carried out by Zhao Doudou meant the prisoners’ strength was no joke. They would definitely need to be cautious when they went in.
The next day.
Xiao Zuiji arrived at the first floor of the prison and declared arrogantly, “I want to fight ten of them!”
“Heh.”
A prisoner laughed, “Another arrogant fellow!”
“Brothers!”
“Let’s give him a proper reception!”
“Swish!”
“Swish!”
In an instant, ten burly prisoners surrounded him, all at the Half-step Martial Saint realm!
“Come on!”
Xiao Zuiji didn’t dare be careless and immediately summoned his shield.
“Boom boom boom boom!”
“Bang bang bang bang!”
Half an hour later, the prison door opened again.
Zhao Doudou helped the bruised and swollen Xiao Zuiji walk out, saying, “Senior Brother Xiao, next time let’s just fight one!”
“No…”
“I still want to fight ten!”
Xiao Zuiji followed the tank path, typically used to absorb damage, so he needed more opponents to stimulate and improve his defense—unlike A Niu, who simply wanted to show off but failed to do so and instead got…
Li Qingyang, Su Xiaomo, and the others successively entered the Prison Suppression Tower.
Because the “offense and defense” combination had already scouted ahead, they conservatively chose one-on-one duels and achieved quite a few victories before being defeated.
“Sect Master!”
Li Qingyang said, “The prison inmates are really fierce!”
Sitting in his study, Jun Changxiao had his legs propped on the desk and smiled, “So this is an excellent training ground. You all need to go in and experience it more.”
Bringing all the Nine Hells prisoners into the Tianyuan Prison Suppression Tower was precisely to create a more formidable and cruel training ground for the sect. Now he had gotten his wish.
Of course.
Not just the disciples.
The senior elders could enter as well.
After Li Qingyang, Xiao Zuiji, and the others took turns, Purple Scale Demon King found time to come to the first floor of the prison. While fighting, he stripped off his clothes, immediately shocking the prisoners.
Damn it!
Is this guy sick?!
…
Counting the twelve wardens who guarded the prisoners, the Tianyuan Prison Suppression Tower was truly formidable.
Without exaggeration, the power contained within, if released, could easily destroy any realm!
Jun Changxiao usually kept it installed in the Eternal Sect, and its internal forces almost never appeared in the outside world.
So the martial artists living on the Xingyun Continent would never dream that the place where they resided actually harbored a dark force capable of dominating the mortal universe.
“Should I bring the prison when I ascend?”
While researching the Heaven-Seizing Fortune Array, Jun Changxiao constantly pondered this question, especially considering that after ascending to the upper realm, would the Xingyun Continent be bullied by others?
Going to a stronger place was certainly good, but this was ultimately home. He didn’t want problems to arise after he left, causing it to fall into the same devastated state as the Tianyuan Continent.
The best solution was to leave behind absolute power, making the local forces behave themselves and keeping all the major realms wary.
The twelve wardens and prisoners inside the Tianyuan Prison Suppression Tower were undoubtedly perfect for protecting the Xingyun Continent.
But the problem was.
He needed to gain their absolute recognition.
The prisoners were easy to deal with—at worst, he could have Er Ya work hard to discipline them. Only the twelve wardens were somewhat tricky.
“An opportunity.”
Jun Changxiao frowned, “I need an opportunity.”
“Little brother!”
Just then, Bai Luocha transmitted her voice, “Another warship is coming!”
The system sharply retorted, “Usually in this kind of situation, it means the opportunity is about to arrive!”
“Oh?”
Jun Changxiao’s eyes showed surprise.
Hadn’t the Star Fortress already been blown up by him? Why were people still coming to cause trouble?
…
The endless starry sky.
A warship of decent specifications and grade came to a stop.
“Who goes there?”
Jun Changxiao, floating opposite, said calmly.
Several martial artists walked out from the cabin. The leading middle-aged man had a pale face, as if injured, and cupped his fists, “Sect Master Jun, please save our Tianhe Continent!”
Huh?
Jun Changxiao was a bit confused.
However, from the other party’s pleading tone, he understood they weren’t here to cause trouble, so he asked, “If you have something to discuss, come into the continent with this seat.”
“There’s no time!”
The middle-aged man’s tone was urgent, “Please, Sect Master Jun, come to our aid quickly, otherwise our Tianhe Continent will cease to exist!”
“Friend.”
Jun Changxiao shrugged, “We don’t seem to know each other, right?”
You ask me to save you, and I just go save you?
There are many people in this world facing trouble. Even if I truly wanted to be a righteous hero, I’d be willing but unable!
“Swish!”
The middle-aged man waved his hand, and large chests filled with spirit stones appeared on the deck.
“I remember now!”
Jun Changxiao slapped his forehead, suddenly realizing, “We met once at the Star Fortress!”
The system roared, “That was way too fast to ‘remember’!”
No choice—money talks!
“Sect Master Jun!”
The middle-aged man said earnestly, “Here are a total of ten million ninth-grade spirit stones. Please hurry to support our Tianhe Continent!”
From his eyes and tone, one could see this was absolutely urgent and couldn’t be delayed.
“I need to know the reason.”
…
“Whoosh—”
Shortly after, the several martial artists who had come for help changed to the Tonggu warship and entered the endless starry sky at extreme speed, heading toward the Tianhe Continent.
“Rest assured, everyone.”
Jun Changxiao stood at the bow, saying solemnly, “I will help you resolve all troubles.”
A month ago.
In the cosmic region where the Tianhe Continent was located, there was a neighboring Jiuquan Continent. After learning that the Star Fortress had been destroyed, they immediately dropped their hypocritical facade and began a large-scale invasion of their neighbor.
Years ago, this realm had been warned by the fortress and even had a patrol envoy sent to them, which made them behave.
But once the restraining force no longer existed, they naturally had no need for restraint.
Jiuquan Continent’s strength was very formidable, belonging to the first-tier level in the mortal universe. Tianhe Continent simply couldn’t resist. After much deliberation, they could only seek aid.
Seek aid from whom?
Whoever destroyed the Star Fortress—go seek them.
So the Tianhe Continent martial artists who broke through the siege rushed forward at full speed and finally found the Xingyun Continent!
“Our two families are separated by a vast distance, yet you found us in just over half a month. That’s quite fast.” On the way, Jun Changxiao said.
The middle-aged man replied, “We have to thank City Lord Mo of the Jiutian Continent for this. He gave us the precise location of Sect Master Jun’s realm, so we didn’t take too many wrong turns!”
“I see.” Jun Changxiao understood.
Of course, Mo Shangsheng not only provided the coordinates of the Xingyun Continent but also repeatedly instructed before parting that when going to ask for help, they must bring proper sincerity, or they’d likely waste their journey.
The middle-aged man took it to heart. Upon seeing Jun Changxiao, he readily produced the spirit stones. From the amount, he clearly had entry-level sincerity.
Sigh.
If there were more people like City Lord Mo in the world, Dog Sheng wouldn’t lack money.
“Jiuquan Continent?”
Jun Changxiao, standing at the bow with his hands behind his back, looked toward the endless starry sky and thought to himself, “I was just worrying about not having an opportunity, and you’ve immediately delivered one.”
“Kakaka!”
“Kakakaka!”
