When breaking through the Ten Directions Certain Death Tower, Shangguan Xinyao and Zhen Dejun cooperated from inside and out, expending massive brain cells and time before forcibly breaking through.

The defensive system existing in the Nine Layers Hell was definitely stronger. To have it broken by Jun Changxiao in just half an hour—dare he say he didn’t cheat?

This time the system could testify—Gou Sheng didn’t cheat! He did it entirely through effort. If one had to blame something, one could only blame the Wondrous Gate Formation Breaking Method for being too amazing, too easy to learn.

Moreover.

He had only comprehended the beginner level!

“This kind of easy-to-understand formation breaking manual sold for 10,000 contribution points—the high-tier shop is truly conscientious!” After merging into the defensive system connecting to the upper level, Jun Changxiao thought darkly.

The system said speechlessly: “It’s always been conscientious, okay.”

“Bullshit!”

Jun Changxiao roared in his heart: “One incomplete manual of the Seven Profound Luminous Breaker cost me money twice before I could buy it. How dare you use the word ‘always’?”

“…”

The system was silent for a moment, then said: “That was an accident.”

“If there are several more accidents, won’t I be completely bankrupt?” Jun Changxiao rolled his eyes.

Don’t look at him chatting and joking with the system—in fact, his soul power kept spreading, searching along the way for the image formation connecting to the eighth level.

The formation system here was divided into defense and surveillance. The former was more difficult to break; the latter was easier.

Jun Changxiao now needed to forcibly steal information, then completely freeze the transmitted image, preventing the patrol guards from noticing to avoid accidents later.

Of course.

It couldn’t be too long.

Because it would eventually be exposed.

“Time is very tight…” Jun Changxiao cast aside distracting thoughts, his soul frantically spreading, frantically searching for the eighth level hell’s image formation system, and before entering, found and hacked it first.

Fortunately, the Nine Layers Hell’s main tone was darkness, and Gou Sheng was acting during sleep time, so the image presented in the patrol room remained fixed and didn’t attract the attention of Chou Guard, Mao Guard, and others.

……

“Swish!”

Eighth level hell ground defensive barrier—Jun Changxiao drilled up from inside.

Yi Feixue in the distance captured it immediately, and his gaze immediately filled with disbelief: “How did you come up?”

Within the prison, one could only go down but never up. This guy who had just been labeled a ninth-level main offender could actually come up—truly too unexpected.

“Elder Yi.”

Jun Changxiao didn’t explain and hurriedly transmitted: “I have a way to leave the Nine Layers Hell. Will you come with me or stay?”

Taking the Nine Great Wudi was necessary, but if he could take these powerful main offenders as well, that would naturally be best.

“I won’t go.” Yi Feixue said.

Jun Changxiao was dumbfounded.

These days, there were still people like Zhao Doudou who developed feelings from imprisonment and didn’t want to leave?

Yi Feixue said: “Yi has devoted his life to sword dao. Any place will do.”

“…”

Jun Changxiao was speechless.

This guy, like Zhou Hong, had practically cultivated sword dao into mental illness.

“Elder Yi.”

Jun Changxiao said seriously: “Here, you can indeed cultivate sword dao, but it’s no different from working behind closed doors. Only by discussing swords and dao with fellow practitioners more, only by absorbing the strengths of all schools can you achieve higher accomplishments.”

“What you say makes sense, but…” Yi Feixue shook his head: “In this mortal universe, how many powerhouses are qualified to discuss swords with Yi?”

Invisible showing off—the most deadly!

Jun Changxiao then said: “Elder Yi probably hasn’t been to Xingyun Continent or the Eternal Sect. There’s a powerhouse named Ye Xingchen, called the Sword Dao Supreme. His understanding of sword dao far surpasses mine.”

The system said: “Persecuting Ah Niu again!”

“Sword Dao Supreme?”

Yi Feixue’s gaze burned: “This name is so domineering!”

“It just so happens I’m also going to Xingyun Continent. If Elder Yi wants to meet Ye Xingchen, I can take you along.” Jun Changxiao said.

Time was tight—no time to explain. He could only trick him onto the boat first.

“Agreed!”

Yi Feixue said readily.

This Ye Xingchen was even stronger than Jun Changxiao—he absolutely must go learn from him. What he sought wasn’t victory or defeat but—sword dao!

“Elder.”

“Please relax your mind. I’ll take you somewhere that makes escaping prison easier.”

Though Yi Feixue hesitated, his desire to meet even stronger sword cultivators made him comply with the request. He immediately felt his vision blur, and his entire being appeared in the Heavenly Origin Prison Suppressing Tower, corresponding to the eighth level prison where he’d just been.

As for the ninth level, the Void Eye was already in position and, after being disciplined by Er Ya, was currently cowering in a corner crying pitifully.

“Done.”

Jun Changxiao hurriedly found Wudi Zhao, Qian, and Sun, took them into the tower, then sat cross-legged and continued communicating with the defensive system connecting to the seventh level.

He temporarily didn’t plan to take other prisoners because if he took everyone from each level, it would be easily discovered by the fortress.

“Swish!”

Shortly after, Jun Changxiao merged into the seventh level hell.

One phrase of “my life is mine, not heaven’s” let Merchant Family Ancestor find the hot-bloodedness of his youth, so without wasting words, he agreed to escape prison and was settled on the seventh level of the Prison Suppressing Tower. The other three Wudi were also taken.

At this time, another advantage of the Heavenly Origin Soul Suppressing Tower became apparent—it could serve as a vessel to contain living beings.

Sixth level—Qin Linran was taken because his soul origin was controlled. Fifth level—Wine Demon was taken because he wanted to meet the Wine Dao Supreme. They were successively taken in and settled on the sixth and fifth levels.

“Elder.”

In the fourth level hell, Jun Changxiao said seriously: “At Xingyun Continent’s Eternal Sect, there’s a guy named Ye Xingchen, hailed as the Literary Dao Supreme. Not only is he proficient in poetry and prose, he’s also proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. He can compose poetry within seven steps and has created the Three Hundred Tang Poems!”

System: “…”

Under this guy’s deception, Ye Xingchen became an all-around king!

“Good!”

Xingyunzi said: “This old man will go meet him!”

Thus, the fourth level main offender was also taken into the Heavenly Origin Prison Suppressing Tower.

Third level Tieyi Hou, second level Huo Yan Yao, first level Diting—all without exception were completely settled inside.

“Wow!”

Er Ya said delightedly: “So many prisoners came!”

“My heavens!”

Zhao Doudou thought in shock: “These people all have formidable strength—they’re all top-tier big shots. Being able to oversee them means my ancestors’ graves must be smoking green!”

“Remember.”

Jun Changxiao instructed: “Ninth level and sixth level can be disciplined freely. The rest cannot be disciplined.”

“Yes!”

Er Ya received the order.

Once the master just left, she came to the sixth level prison. Small whips, small candles, and other tools were brought out as she walked toward the neither-male-nor-female Qin Linran with a sinister air.

“You… what are you going to do!”

“Crack crack crack!”

“Ahhh—”

Qin Linran had already handed over his soul origin and was controlled by Jun Changxiao. Why must he still suffer torment?

Because he looked too effeminate, so Gou Sheng hoped that under Er Ya’s discipline, he could find the masculine vigor a man should have.

Don’t say otherwise.

The effect was significant.

After just a short time of whipping, Qin Linran’s screams changed from soft and delicate to gradually manly. Believing in continued reformation, he would completely transform.
