Divine Brilliance

In only took an instant to cross that seemingly bottomless abyss.

When Zong Shou broke out from the chaotic space, he saw tens of thousands of white shadows suddenly wrapping around him.

Following closely behind was a wave of Chill Power that could freeze everything as well as claw-shaped sharp light.

“Spider threads?”

Zong Shou only needed to think for a moment and he understood.

Since there were Mutated Beasts hiding at the entrance, then how would it be peaceful at the exit?

The moment such a thought rose up, those 79 Star Dao Seeds spread out in all directions.

His body flashed and disappeared from the spot, causing those sticky spider threads to land in the air.

The Nameless Sword also exploded out, the white Sky Burning Flame wrapped all around it.

Suddenly many brilliant Sword Shadows rose up, splitting and tearing about this space and nearly shattering it!

Along with several cries, the few mutated beasts all retreated.

The beasts on this level were evidently stronger than the ones on the last layer.

They took his sword head-on and only suffered light injuries.

Zong Shou didn’t bother, his Sword Energy had split up and didn’t have any strength to begin with.

The vast and thick Sword Light was just to scare them off.

As expected, all the 20 beasts who were charging over halted.

However, that vengeful killing intent was still tightly locked onto him.

However, the tens of millions of Sword Shadows around him were like a wave, they were endless and relentless. The aura was getting stronger and stronger.

It slowly formed into a sword circle, causing those beasts that charged over to be fearful or return without achieving anything.

Amongst the chaos, several small silver-white shadows sped out from the Sword Light.

They disregarded the distance and basically shattered the concept of time and the Grand Dao laws.

The silver-white Flying Knive covered the distance instantly as an immense power exuded from them. It directly pierced through one of the bodies of the Natural Variants! Blood splattered everywhere.

Several arteries exploded. The few green-white Flying Knives pierced through several other beast bodies.

Blood mist seemed to appear everywhere. The remaining beast bodies started to burn. It was the Sky Burning Flame that pillaged the remaining lifeforce of these Natural Variants.

Hanxi swiftly acted and snatched another 3 Beast Pellets.

Before Zong Shou flashed and moved, it returned back into his sleeves.

He killed the few fastest one. He also managed to successfully spread his star seeds to ten million miles away.

A consecutive dozen teleportations and in just dozens of breaths he crossed 10,000 miles, totally ditching those beasts who still didn’t want to let him off.

Actually, with his ability he would have been able to kill them all. Although there were many Celestial Realm beasts among them, to him it was something he could deal with in just a few breaths.

However, after all he snuck into this world so he had to be careful. He wasn’t willing to waste time here and also didn’t want to make too large a commotion so as to alert the Lu Family who were guarding this jail.

This was why when he left he only killed those few stubborn ones or those who were going to attack Hanxi.

It benefited this Saint Queen Ant. It had swallowed the Shark Snake Inner Pellet and merged with Wish Power that Zong Shou purified so its strength had greatly increased.

Now that it merged with more Inner Pellets, who knows how strong its essence was strengthened by.

“People of this world are restricted by the Spiritual Restrictions. The Five Element Laws are mostly cut off, only these Natural Variants aren’t affected by these. That’s right! These things are an instantiation of the laws of Heaven and Earth. How can their connection with the world be something this Death Jail Formation could affect? However, their control of the laws are just a little too weak or shallow. Is there some other reason?”

“Moreover, this Sky Burning Flame is also frighteningly strong in this Death Jail Region, pretty much countering everything. It seems like this Lu Family Death Jail isn’t as simple as being a place where they lock up criminals…”

At this moment, Zong Shou experienced it personally. It was extremely simple when he used the Sky Burning Flame to kill those few beasts.

If the Lu Family members wanted to fight against those Natural Variants to survive in this place, then the best way would be to squeeze dry all the potential in their bloodline, to raise the quality of the Sky Burning True Flame.

All of a sudden, numerous questions rose up in his heart.

However, this wasn’t the reason why Zong Shou came over. After thinking about it slightly, he couldn’t be bothered anymore.

Only now did he pay attention to this world.

A moment later, he was slightly stunned. There were six suns in the sky.

Under that intense and violent sunlight, this entire place was like a furnace.

Looking out, it was yellow sand all around. The land cracked up, there were nearly no plants at all.

What shocked him was still that light. It was like many energy needles shooting down.

Even Zong Shou’s body protecting energy couldn’t block it. When it touched his body, it was like millions of steel needles piercing into his body.

Zong Shou was deep in thought as he looked at his hand, only to hear a magnetic sound on his skin. His skin was being scorched and melted.

His physical body was really strong and could face an Intermediate Magical Treasure without being injured. However, under this sunlight, he was still unable to defend against it.

He couldn’t help but think that since he was like that, then what about the person beside him?

He turned his head and looked at Lu Wubing. As expected, he was in a more tragic situation than him.

Luckily, he was also Peak Celestial Realm and after borrowing his Book of Eon he had improved a lot. He was barely able to hold on and wasn’t like a human candle as Zong Shou had expected.

“This world is known as the Light Needle Death Jail. Heaven Realm and below, no one can last for 10 days. However, every 10 days, the world will go dark and let one take a breather…”

He flipped his sleeves and ripped open the ground. One could see numerous snakes struggling and twisting in the dirt.

“These are Earth Searching Ant Snakes, they can’t come out to see the light and can’t come into contact with the wind. There are billions of them spread out underground. The people of this jail use these as their food.”

Zong Shou felt a chill down his spine. These Earth Searching Ant Snakes were the food of the criminals in this layer of the jail. It was also to prevent the criminals of the Lu Family from hiding underground when the sunlight was at its strongest.

His fists clenched tight, his fingernails stabbing deep into his flesh. Blood seeped down from the corner of his lips.

So his Mother survived under such a cruel jail environment for 20 full years?

He took in a deep breath to let his emotions calm down slightly.

At this moment, there was no use being anxious or hateful. He could only try to find his mother earlier.

“Then what is the eighth layer like?”

Based on what Lu Wubing said, Lu Hanyan was locked up within the eighth layer.
