"Holy crap, this is a man-eating rabbit!"
Ye Ling stared at the blood-mouthed rabbit in the cell opposite, utterly shocked.
However, Ye Ling quickly regained his composure and accepted the reality of the situation.
Compared to Xu Qianqin and Calvin in his own cell, the man-eating rabbit across the way was practically adorable.
Knowing the rabbit opposite was carnivorous, Ye Ling conjured a roasted lamb leg in his hand, making it as delicious-looking as possible to tempt the man-eating rabbit.
Upon seeing the roasted lamb leg in Ye Ling's hand, the man-eating rabbit's mouth instantly began to water.
"Roasted meat... I haven't eaten roasted meat in so long!"
The man-eating rabbit mumbled hoarsely, then began to frantically assault the cell's barrier, smashing its head until it bled.
Yet, the man-eating rabbit seemed to have eyes only for the roasted lamb leg, completely disregarding its own bloody head as it continued to charge the barrier.
The commotion caused by the man-eating rabbit in the opposite cell attracted more rabbits from the darkness, who joined in the assault on the cell.
Bang! Bang! Bang!!! Da Feng Novel Network
With a multitude of man-eating rabbits crashing against the barrier, the entire dungeon became lively in an instant.
Ye Ling hadn't expected his conjured roasted meat to be so effective. He amplified his efforts, conjuring an entire roasted whole sheep. The man-eating rabbits in the opposite cell went even crazier, opening their bloody maws and gnawing at the iron bars of the cell, attempting to break through!
Clang!
At this moment, the sound of dragging chains echoed from outside the dungeon corridor.
"Here they come!"
Ye Ling looked towards the corridor and saw the jailer, glowing green, dragging chains and a massive scythe, approaching step by step.
The rabbits in the opposite cells had completely lost their minds. Even with the jailer's arrival, they showed no restraint, continuing to batter the cell barrier.
"These brainless beasts are always causing trouble for me every few days!"
The jailer grumbled in a deep voice, walked up to the cell opposite Ye Ling, raised his massive scythe, and swung it through the barrier.
The man-eating rabbits, which had been jumping around, were instantly hooked by their souls, their bodies turning to dust.
After dealing with the rabbits, the jailer turned his gaze towards Ye Ling's cell, his eyes burning with a faint green fire, his thoughts unknown.
"Were you the one who incited those beasts' riot?" the jailer asked coldly, staring at Ye Ling's soul, which was obscured by runes.
"Didn't I tell you what happened before? Did you forget everything?"
Seeing that the jailer could see him, Ye Ling stopped pretending and chuckled at the jailer, "I've been feeling a bit itchy lately. Do you have any special tricks for me?"
Hearing Ye Ling's words, the jailer let out a cold laugh and said, "I've seen countless prisoners. Most of them are terrified of me, begging me to torment them... You're the first."
Ye Ling smiled, "After all, I haven't experienced it. Would you like to try?"
"Very well, I'm bored anyway," the jailer replied with a faint smile, directly piercing the cell barrier with his scythe and hooking Ye Ling's soul.
Almost instantly, Ye Ling felt an unparalleled pain.
"Ugh! This pain is quite invigorating!" Ye Ling gritted his teeth in pain.
"This is just the beginning," the jailer sneered. "I've guarded this dungeon for countless ages, and in my leisure time, I've been researching ways to torture prisoners... A powerful being like you, a calamity-level expert, with a strong mind and body, is perfect for me to experiment with new punishments."
As he spoke, the jailer tossed his chains into the cell, which directly pierced Xu Qianqin's domain, dragging Ye Ling's body out of Xu Qianqin's domain.
"If you want to torture, you must attack both body and mind!"
"Ahhh! This is my prey!!!"
Countless heads of Xu Qianqin emerged from the darkness, glaring at the jailer outside the dungeon, and shrieked, "Give me back my hero!"
"You crazy woman, behave yourself!"
The jailer snorted coldly, directly swung his chains, and lashed Xu Qianqin across the face, blowing up one of her heads!
Xu Qianqin's other heads cried out in pain, but she no longer dared to retort to the jailer. All her heads retreated back into the darkness.
Seeing that the jailer had subdued Xu Qianqin with just one strike, Ye Ling couldn't help but swallow.
Why is everyone so perverted?
The jailer dragged Ye Ling's soul and body out of the dungeon and sneered, "It seems you called me over because you want me to save you from that crazy woman..."
"However, don't think you can use me so easily. After I'm done torturing you, I'll still separate your body and soul and send you back to that crazy woman."
"Heh heh heh... Kid, before I send you back, let's enjoy some private time!"
The jailer chuckled sinisterly and dragged Ye Ling's body and soul into a narrow room deep within the dungeon, filled with various torture instruments Ye Ling had never seen before.
Ye Ling looked at the strange torture instruments in the room, his scalp tingling.
Although he hadn't seen these peculiar instruments, he could sense that if they were used on him, he would be in serious trouble.
However, Ye Ling didn't sit idly by. He began to reactivate the runes within his body, converting them into the Devouring Domain and Ink Between, quickly breaking Xu Qianqin's seal.
Ye Ling had already analyzed Xu Qianqin's seal with Ink Between. Now, he no longer had to worry about Xu Qianqin pursuing him. He roughly broke Xu Qianqin's seal, regaining some of the power Xu Qianqin had previously helped him unleash.
Afterward, Ye Ling began to use that power to construct new Devouring Domains and Ink Between, starting to break the masked man's seal.
Ye Ling carried out all these actions in secret. The jailer, oblivious, hummed a tune as he bound Ye Ling's body and soul to two different torture instruments.
Ye Ling watched the jailer selecting torture instruments in the cell, his eyelids slightly lowered, calculating the time it would take to break his seals.
'Based on the current progress, it should take another three days to completely break the seals. I hope I can hold on...'
Looking at the torture instruments in the cell, Ye Ling himself was unsure how long he could endure.
However, in this situation, it was the best plan for his survival.
As long as he could endure this period and recover his strength, it would be his turn to retaliate!
"Kid... let me let you experience our specialty first, the Soul-Sucking Needles... these are top-tier torture instruments that have driven several calamity-level experts insane."
The jailer took out a set of fine needles covered in barbs and walked towards Ye Ling's soul, chuckling, "The Soul-Sucking Needles can slice your soul bit by bit, magnifying your pain a billion times, while also keeping you conscious."
"Kid, this is my proud invention!"
Ye Ling stared at the instruments in the jailer's hand, gritted his teeth, and said, "Bring it on! Whoever flinches is a coward!"
"Hmph! Let's see if you still have the guts for this!"
A glint flashed in the jailer's eyes. He took out the longest Soul-Sucking Needle and aimed it at Ye Ling's forehead!
"All dungeon staff, report to the Warden's office immediately for a meeting!"
At this moment, a cold voice blared from a speaker in the corner of the room. The needle in the jailer's hand stopped before Ye Ling's forehead.
"Kid, you're lucky... I'll be back to torment you later."
The jailer said coldly to Ye Ling, put away his instruments, and then vanished from the spot.
Ye Ling watched the jailer suddenly disappear and let out a sigh of relief, exclaiming, "Phew... what a timely meeting!"
