They had been chasing after Blazing Huo for two days and three nights. Lu Li had lost count of how many times he had attacked Blazing Huo. Blazing Huo had so many black flames.
The amount of black flames he had consumed during this period of time was probably enough to fill a space ring with a radius of ten thousand feet, right?
He wondered where the old monster's black flames were stored.
In the distance, there was a vague mountain range. Lu Li knew they had arrived at the towering mountain.
His heart sank. If he could not defeat Blazing Huo in the Prison of Wind, it would be even more difficult in the Prison of Darkness.
Lu Li went into the Wicked Bead and asked the Deaf Taoist, "Deaf Taoist, are you familiar with the Prison of Darkness?"
"Cooked!"
The Deaf Taoist could tell that they were about to enter the Prison of Darkness. He said with a heavy heart, "The Prison of Darkness is a bit tricky. It is pitch dark and there is no light. It is difficult to track them down.
However … it will not be that easy for Old Huo to escape. Master, let me out later. I will leave a mark on his body. As long as the mark remains, I will be able to sense him no matter where he goes. "
"Alright!"
Lu Li was cheered up. He flew the Wicked Bead over quickly, went around Blazing Huo, and arrived in front of him.
Then, he and the Deaf Taoist showed up almost at the same time and took actions.
Lu Li used the Slayer's move to subdue Blazing Huo. The Deaf Taoist swung the stone column as well. The iron chain inside the stone column turned into a shadow of a flood dragon and whooshed out.
Bang!
After the blood-red blade radiance sent Blazing Huo flying, the shadow of the dragon transformed from the iron chain flashed and disappeared into Blazing Huo's body.
"Hmm?"
Blazing Huo woke up at this moment. He tore the void apart and entered the crack in space.
In the next second, he appeared at the entrance of the Skypiercing Mountain. His body shot up like an arrow and soon disappeared on the Skypiercing Mountain.
"Go!"
Lu Li waved his hand and flew toward the towering mountain with the Deaf Taoist. When they arrived at the path, Lu Li clearly felt the gravity was stronger. His speed was slowed down.
"Sir, I'll bring you along!"
The Deaf Taoist grabbed Lu Li's arm and led him up. Soon, they arrived at the top of the towering mountain.
With the last step, he felt a white light flash in front of him, and then he entered a completely dark world.
"So dark!"
He sighed with emotion. He had heard the rumors about the Dark Prison. It was said that it was absolutely dark without a trace of light.
Even if you took out a fire lighter or a luminous pearl, you could only illuminate a very small area.
Lu Li used psychic power at once. He realized that psychic power was limited here as well. He could only scan an area with a radius of thousands of feet.
"Which direction?"
Lu Li brought the Deaf Taoist into the Wicked Bead. The Deaf Taoist checked and pointed to the north. "North. I think he is trying to escape to the Prison of Soul. The Prison of Soul is the most dangerous place. I think he is trying to take you to the Prison of Soul because your realm is not high."
"Whoosh ~"
The Wicked Bead flew on. Not long afterward, Lu Li felt he bumped into something.
He probed with his Divine Telekinesis and found that there were some bird-sized monsters with long and thin mouths in the space.
"What is this?"
Lu Li described the beast. The Deaf Taoist explained, "This is a Beast of Primordial Chaos unique to the Prison of Darkness, the Marrow Sucking Mosquitoes.
This type of Chaos Beast looked like a mosquito. That was why it was named this way.
These Beasts of Primordial Chaos can be found everywhere in the Prison of Darkness. Usually, they will attack warriors' heads directly and suck their brains.
Master, don't worry. The Marrow Sucking Mosquitoes cannot crack a Relic. But if you only rely on Quasi Relics, you will be in danger when there are too many Marrow Sucking Mosquitoes. "
"Oh, I see!"
Lu Li was taken aback. Sucking brains directly? This Beast of Primordial Chaos was vicious.
Lu Li planned ahead and asked, "What other horrifying things are there in the Prison of Darkness? Tell me in detail."
"Apart from the Marrow Sucking Mosquitoes, there is only one type of Beasts of Primordial Chaos, the Ghost Worms.
These worms usually lurk in cracks in space and they will come out from time to time to launch sneak attacks. The teeth of these worms are so strong that they can bite Quasi Relics into pieces. Average Semi-God Realm warriors who do not have powerful means will be doomed if they encounter the Ghost Worms. "
The Deaf Taoist added after a pause, "Lord, you have a Relic. You will be fine as long as you don't run into a large group of Ghost Worms.
As a matter of fact, the most horrifying thing about the Prison of Darkness is the naturally formed illusions. It is easy to lose your way here. If you are lost in the illusions and cannot find a way out, you will either die or lose your mind … "
"Eh!"
Lu Li was taken aback. If he was really trapped in illusions, he would not be able to see anything in the darkness.
Maybe he could stay here for a month or two.
What if he was trapped here for a year or even decades?
"If I am trapped here for a couple of years, maybe I will lose my mind as well."
In a place of absolute darkness, there was nothing to be seen.
Out of instinct, people would feel terror, powerlessness, and confusion.
No matter how strong a person's mind was, he would eventually lose his mind.
It was fortunate that Lu Li brought the Deaf Taoist with him. A warrior of this level must have gone to the Prison of Darkness often. He must have explored the Prison of Soul many times as well.
Lu Li asked the Deaf Taoist for confirmation, which was confirmed. Not only did the Deaf Taoist often go to the Prison of Soul, he had been to the Prison of Thunder three times.
"Is the Prison of Thunder as horrifying as people say?"
Lu Li asked with curiosity. Going through the Prison of Thunder meant that he could go to the Divinity. Theoretically speaking, the Prison of Thunder should be horrifying.
"Yes!"
The Deaf Taoist nodded with lingering fear in the depth of his eyes. After a pause, the Deaf Taoist said, "If I am at the peak of my abilities, I might have a chance.
Given my current abilities, I can be killed even at the periphery, not to mention the center. "
"That horrifying?"
Lu Li was worried. The Deaf Taoist's defense was strong after he transformed. If Lu Li could not survive at the periphery, could Little White survive given its speed and defense?
Little White might not be blasted to death at once.
Lu Li looked at Little White that was sleeping in the corner of the hall. He shook his head after some thoughts. He would think about it when he had the chance to go to the Prison of Thunder.
Maybe Little White was talented enough to survive.
Little White had been using thunderbolts to refine its body over the years. It might be resistant to thunderbolts.
"Lord, Blazing Huo should be up ahead!"
The Deaf Taoist's sudden reminder startled Lu Li. He tried to check outside through the Wicked Bead. He heard a noise of someone flying fast.
"Buzzing!"
Without any hesitation, he dashed out, swung his Relic weapon and hacked at the space in front of him. Then, he dashed back into the Wicked Bead.
"Swish ~"
The blood-red ray of sword light whooshed on. The man in front of Blazing Huo burst into black flames.
Blazing Huo did not look at the ray of sword light behind him, but the world in front of him had turned blood red.
"Bang!"
Blazing Huo was sent flying. He immediately soared up into the sky and fled into the distance.
"I cannot go on like this. I don't have much Flames left. When I run out, I will die for sure!"
