Two daughters of the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Demons had arrived, and the entire prison was stunned.
Were these two girls the daughters of the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Demons? But the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Demons had been imprisoned here for countless years, and his daughters were so young...
"Father! Why are you all imprisoned here?" Zhan Tai Ruo Mei asked, looking up at the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Demons with her small face.
"Alas! This is the Soul Locking Purgatory, personally established by the Primeval Lord of Heaven. During the war between gods and demons, the demon race suffered a great defeat. However, that bastard Hongjun, fearing our resurgence, ordered the Primeval Lord of Heaven to lock us all here, preventing us from reincarnating.
Unexpectedly, the Primeval Lord of Heaven was even more ruthless, establishing the Soul Locking Purgatory. Not only are we unable to cultivate, but our powers are also transformed into heaven and earth origin energy to supply his Jade Void Palace. Thus, we have been weakening day by day, losing any chance of turning the tables. We don't even know what the outside world has become over these countless years!" the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Demons lamented bitterly.
Lu Fan stood by, sighing. No wonder Kunlun Mountain became a holy land; it turned out that these three thousand great demon kings provided heaven and earth origin energy daily. Although this origin energy was devoured by the Jade Void Palace, a small portion that scattered was enough for mortals to benefit from.
"Father, how can we save you?" Li Jing Jing asked anxiously from the side.
"How can you save us? Once you enter this Soul Locking Purgatory, you won't be able to leave either. Let alone the formations personally refined by Hongjun that control this place, even the First Qilin guarding here is not someone anyone can come and go freely. Moreover, your cultivation is so low," the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Demons said, looking at his two daughters and shaking his head.
"Senior! Then how did Lady Yun Xiao end up under the claws of the First Qilin?" Lu Fan suddenly remembered a question and immediately asked.
"That little girl? She was sent here by the Primeval Lord of Heaven three thousand years ago. However, this Soul Locking Purgatory was specifically prepared for us three thousand great demon kings, so there was no place for her. Furthermore, the Primeval Lord of Heaven seemed to have a deep enmity with this girl, and specifically ordered the First Qilin to torment her, which is why she ended up like this," the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Demons said.
"By the way, who is this little friend?" At this moment, the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Demons finally noticed Lu Fan and asked.
"Father, we wanted to ask you something. During the war between gods and demons, when countless divine races were chasing us, our Master saved our lives. But our Master kept reincarnating us to escape the pursuit of the divine races. As a result... she forgot who she was. Can you remember who he is?" Li Jing Jing suddenly remembered the important matter and asked.
"This... I really don't remember anyone saving my two daughters.
However, the lifespan of heaven and earth is two hundred and nine thousand six hundred years, called one Yuan. At the end of each Yuan, heaven and earth return to chaos, requiring Pangu to reopen the universe. The 'birth and death' of heaven and earth is a tribulation. Heaven and earth must start anew. This is also the main reason why Hongjun and the Primeval Lord of Heaven want to lock us up and not let us go.
We were locked here, and after the tribulation of heaven and earth, we were reborn, but we became weaker and weaker, losing any chance of turning the tables. However, when heaven and earth enter the next tribulation and begin anew, I will definitely find and remember who saved my daughters!" the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Demons suddenly said.
Gulp... Lu Fan swallowed. As expected of the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Demons, his foresight was truly far-reaching. Hongjun had already entered the Heavenly Dao, beyond life and death. How could you possibly have a chance to turn the tables in the war between gods and demons? The moment you revived, Hongjun would kill you and stuff you here as nourishment.
"Forget it, let's think of a way to leave here!" Lu Fan said.
"Leave? It seems there's no way at all," the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Demons said, shaking his head.
"Not necessarily, it depends on human effort!" Lu Fan said, then walked back. These great demon kings were basically unreliable. It seemed he had to focus his efforts on the First Qilin.
"Father! Master will definitely find a way, and Master will definitely find a way to save you all," Li Jing Jing and Zhan Tai Ruo Mei said, then chased after Lu Fan.
"Young lady! If you can get out, be sure to find the God-Slaying Spear and the Immortal-Slaying Flying Dagger! With those two treasures, you can kill gods and immortals," the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Demons shouted from behind.
Lu Fan walked back and came before the First Qilin. The front was blocked by an iron cage, making it impossible to get out.
"First Qilin! You've been guarding this Soul Locking Purgatory for countless years, haven't you? Don't you want to leave? Don't you want to reincarnate and cultivate anew, to become an immortal or a sage?" Lu Fan shouted at the First Qilin.
The First Qilin didn't even move its eyelids.
"Alright! Then let's talk about the Primeval Lord of Heaven. Do you know that the Primeval Lord of Heaven has the most awesome mount in the world, the Nine Dragon Incense Carriage? It's said to be pulled by nine dragon kings who suppressed the eight directions and the center. It's incredibly powerful! And the Ancestral Dragon is also sealed in Dragon Spring Cave. Just like you, never to rise again," Lu Fan continued to say calmly.
The First Qilin remained expressionless, its eyes not moving at all.
"Alas! I heard that a certain little fellow, a four-unlike-anything, is quite miserable!" Suddenly, Lu Fan sighed slightly.
Swish... The First Qilin suddenly opened its eyes.
Lu Fan's heart stirred, but he stopped talking. He turned around and sat down on the ground. He looked at Li Jing Jing and Zhan Tai Ruo Mei who had just caught up.
"Forget it, we can't get out anyway, how about we play Dou Dizhu here?" Lu Fan said with a grin.
"Dou Dizhu? Master, you're still in the mood for Dou Dizhu at a time like this? Alright! Let's play for a while! Loser takes off their clothes... Forget it, so many people are watching, let's just stick paper strips!" Li Jing Jing also sat down opposite Lu Fan.
"Kid! Finish what you were saying! Otherwise, I'll destroy your soul and make you disappear forever," the First Qilin said abruptly.
"Don't... don't don't! Do you really like listening to stories? Then I'll tell you, since we're all idle anyway."
Lu Fan grinned and turned to look at the First Qilin, saying, "This matter goes back to the Investiture of the Gods tribulation. It is said that Hongjun has a treasure called the Investiture of the Gods..."
"Kid! Stop the nonsense! Get to the point!" The First Qilin roared angrily. Whoosh... With that roar, a hurricane instantly swept through. Everyone felt a soul-devouring pain!
"Alright! To put it simply, the Primeval Lord of Heaven gave the four-unlike-anything to his most devoted disciple, Jiang Ziya. Jiang Ziya rode it to launch a heaven and earth catastrophe, known as the Investiture of the Gods tribulation! The Primeval Lord of Heaven also successfully used this catastrophe to destroy the Jie Teachings of the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning," Lu Fan said calmly.
