Huo Tai said "something bad happened" when he walked in. Zhang Xiaozu was so frightened that something happened to Yu Chengyang and Taoist Tianwu. He hurriedly stood up and took two steps forward and asked: "Senior Brother Huo, what happened?!"
Hei Yuan and Niu Dawa also looked dark and stood up from their chairs.
"It's like this..." Huo Tai immediately told the two of them what he had learned, and then said with a sad face: "Junior Brother Zhang, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that I have more than enough ambition but not enough power!
"
He was really sad, sad and heartbroken that he could not get Zhang Xiaopou's generous reward.
Zhang Xiaozu frowned and pondered for a moment, then took out two star pills from the mustard seeds and handed them to Huo Tai, saying: "Brother Huo, could you please find a way to take us into the heavenly prison? I want to meet with the two senior commanders."
Huo Tai's eyes lit up, and he immediately reached out to take the Star Pill and said, "This is not difficult, just leave it to me."
Recently, Daofa Sect has been busy preparing for the Dao competition, and many disciples have been transferred to the former sect to help.
The guarding of the Heavenly Prison, which was already lax, became even more lax after several guarding disciples were removed.
There are many powerful demons and ghosts imprisoned in the sky prison under the cold pool. It stands to reason that Fa Zong should send more people to guard them strictly, but they rely on the sky prison that no one can break, so they have nothing to fear.
The disciples guarding the prison often neglect their duties.
It often happens that people like Huo Tai take a leave of absence and then disappear for a month or two.
The top managers also turned a blind eye and would not pursue the responsibility too much even if they found out, because the days of guarding the prison were too boring, and they thought it was okay to let the guarding disciples go out for fun from time to time.
In the middle of the night, the four guard disciples were already lying in the gatehouse, fast asleep.
Huo Tai led Zhang Xiaozu, Niu Dawa and Hei Yuan into the Tianlao gate in a swaggering manner.
Zhang Xiaopeng's eyes widened when he saw this useless guard.
He thought the guards would be very strict and it would be very difficult to sneak into the sky prison, so he gave Huo Tai two Star Pills as a reward. If he had known it would be so easy, he would have given Huo Tai one at most.
The Tianlao gate is located on the edge of the cold pool. Entering the gate is a half-foot-wide wooden staircase leading to the bottom of the cold pool.
The wooden steps are surrounded by formation restrictions on all sides, isolating the pool water and forming a deep corridor that spirals downward and cannot be forgotten at a glance.
As soon as they walked into the corridor, Zhang Xiaozhu and Niu Dawa found it strange, because under the power of the stars, they could see the fish and shrimp in the cold pool through the transparent isolation light curtain.
However, as they continued to go deeper, the two of them gradually felt the pressure of the deep cold pool, and the novel expressions on their faces slowly turned into solemnity.
Even though he knew that even if the formation collapsed and the pond water squeezed into the corridor, it would not pose a threat to him, the feeling of oppression in his heart was still difficult to eliminate.
We followed the spiral wooden ladder to the bottom of the pool to a depth of more than 400 feet, and then we reached the Tianlao at the bottom of the pool.
The hairs on Zhang Xiaozu and Niu Dawa's bodies stood up uncontrollably, because at this depth, if the formation collapsed and the cold pool water fell from above their heads, they would be crushed into meat patties in an instant, leaving absolutely no room for struggle.
Even the black ape cursed uncomfortably.
Zhang Xiaozu had already used his subtle mind to see Yu Chengyang and Taoist Tianwu. He immediately quickened his pace and walked along the cell passage to the cell where they were.
If Yu Chengyang hadn't been detained in the same cell as Taoist Tianwu, he probably wouldn't have recognized Taoist Tianwu because Taoist Tianwu's body shape had changed so much.
He used to be as round and round as a ball, but now he has become skinny and skinny.
In the cell, Yu Chengyang and Taoist Tianwu heard footsteps and opened their eyes alertly.
When the two of them saw Zhang Xiaozu coming out of the corner of the passage, they were both surprised and embarrassed, their faces turned red.
"Master, uncle, master..."
Zhang Xiaozu walked quickly to the door of the cell and looked at the Tianwu Taoist who had lost countless weight. Without asking, he knew that he must have suffered a serious crime in this dark and extremely cold cell. Otherwise, how could his chubby body be so thin?
With this appearance, even the waist has become thinner, and I can't help but feel sad.
"Good boy, you have grown so tall, I almost didn't recognize you."
Taoist Tianwu looked at the tall and strong Zhang Xiaozu, and recalled the youthful appearance of Zhang Xiaozu in his memory. He couldn't help but feel a burst of emotion and sadness in his heart. He felt as if he had been in this dark sky prison for decades.
"Senior, do you still recognize me?" Niu Dawa walked up and asked with a smile.
He was startled by the change in Taoist Tianwu, and thought that if he passed by him while walking on the street, he would probably not recognize him.
"Niu boy, Niu Dawa, haha, what a good boy, as strong as a cow!" Tianwu Taoist recognized Niu Dawa based on his impression.
"Do you recognize me?" Black Ape joined in the fun and stood forward with his arms crossed and his chest puffed out.
Taoist Tianwu bowed his hands to the black ape and said: "My fellow Taoist must be the ape king who enlightened my little disciple in the black forest. I have admired his name for a long time. I am honored to meet you."
He heard Yu Chengyang mention the black ape, so he roughly guessed its identity as soon as the black ape came forward.
"Hey, have you heard of my great king?" The black monkey was quite surprised. It was waiting for Master Tianwu to say that he didn't recognize it, and then introduce himself properly.
"The king's majestic reputation is like thunder!" Taoist Tianwu said in response.
"It turns out that this great king is already so famous, haha, not bad, not bad." Hei Yuan laughed loudly, and the compliment to Taoist Tianwu was very useful.
"Pindao has met Lord Demon Emperor." Yu Chengyang saluted Black Ape.
"No gifts, no gifts." Black Ape waved his hands, the smile on his lips became even wider, and he became more and more proud.
Then it glanced at Zhang Xiaopou and Niu Dawa with a warning look, meaning: "You two should learn from this. I am the Demon Emperor. If you dare to behave in front of me again, I will beat you two to death."
indivual."
Yu Chengyang looked at Zhang Xiaozu and asked: "Boy, how much benefit do you want from Gao Han?"
Zhang Xiaozhu was stunned when he heard this and asked: "Who is Xiang Gaohan?"
"The leader of the Tao Fa Sect."
"This disciple has never seen him."
Yu Chengyang heard this and asked in confusion: "Why, didn't Xiang Gaohan send someone to invite you from Dasu?"
"No, the disciple sneaked in." Zhang Xiaozu replied.
Huo Tai stood aside and took credit and said: "It was the junior who learned that the two seniors were suffering here and hurriedly ran to Qingzhou day and night to inform Junior Brother Zhang. It was also the junior who brought Junior Brother Zhang in."
"Thank you for your hard work. Did Liu Ziyang ask you to go?" Yu Chengyang asked.
"Who is Liu Ziyang? I don't know him." Huo Tai shook his head, "It was the junior who couldn't bear the suffering of the two seniors here, so he went voluntarily."
"Ha..." Niu Dawa snorted and laughed.
Huo Tai looked slightly embarrassed, knowing that Niu Dawa was laughing at him for not being able to afford it early.
"Do you have the token key to open the prison door?" Tianwu Taoist asked.
Huo Tai shook his head and replied: "No, the master of the sect has sent someone to guard the token key of the cell here. Without his permission, no one can get the token key."
Yu Chengyang and Taoist Tianwu looked disappointed when they heard this and said: "This cell is a forbidden formation passed down from ancient times. The cell door cannot be opened without the token key."
"Get out of the way and let me try." Black Ape took out the sun-shooting bow from the void space.
Yu Chengyang hurriedly stopped him and said: "Your Majesty, you must not do it. Forcibly destroying it will immediately trigger the killing array in the formation. Its terrifying power is beyond our ability to bear."
Huo Tai also said anxiously: "You must not forcefully break the formation. If you offend the formation, we will be killed instantly. Even the Demon Emperor...can't escape."
"Humph!" Black Ape snorted displeasedly.
"It is said that there are two Demon Emperors, the Demon Lord and the Ghost Emperor imprisoned at the bottom of the Heavenly Prison." Huo Tai said in a low voice, meaning to tell Hei Yuan that he was not alarmist.
"This won't work, that won't work, how can I open the door?" Black Ape shouted impatiently.
"Let me try. If it doesn't work, go find Xiang Gaohan. He just wants some benefits, just give it to him." Zhang Xiaozhu said, taking a step closer to the cell door, stretching out his hands and touching the cell door bar.
Golden runes surged out from his palm, like golden fish, getting through the prison door and swimming in all directions.
"Huh--"
Zhang Xiaopou suddenly exclaimed in surprise and discovered that the prison formation was very similar to the one in the monster prison he encountered in the mountains of Daya Kingdom. It seemed that they were made by the same person.
Taoist Tianwu watched Zhang Xiaopeng show off his power, and felt both happy and lonely.
What is gratifying is that Zhang Xiaozu has grown to such a high level, but what is depressing is that Zhang Xiaozu is already stronger than his master, and he has nothing to teach Zhang Xiaozu.
Yu Chengyang stared at the changes in Zhang Xiaopou's runes, with golden light flashing in his eyes and runes flying.
He was making rapid deductions in his mind, hoping to see if he could get any inspiration or discovery during the battle between Zhang Xiaopou and the Tianlao Formation.
Suddenly, he was startled, with a look of disbelief on his face. He saw Zhang Xiaopou actually unlocking one corner of the formation.
Although it is only a small corner, it means that Zhang Xiaozu has found the key to the door.
"It turns out it's so simple..."
When he saw Zhang Xiaozu's method of unlocking one corner of the formation, he suddenly felt like he had an enlightenment.
"It's really the same." Zhang Xiaozhu muttered in surprise, and then immediately accelerated the speed of breaking through the formation.
"It's amazing...it turns out it can be like this...why didn't I think of it..."
Yu Chengyang watched Zhang Xiaopou break through the formation at a very fast speed, his eyes sparkling, admiring Zhang Xiaopou's methods extremely.
In fact, the reason why Zhang Xiaozu was able to do it, but Yu Chengyang couldn't do it after more than two months of research, is because when Zhang Xiaozu saw the monster prison, the surface of the prohibition formation was already on the verge of breaking apart, exposing the surface formation.
The core mechanism of the law is dozens of times easier to deduce and crack.
If Zhang Xiaopou had not seen and deduced the prohibitive formation of the Demonic Beast Prison, he might not be able to crack it if he was thrown into this heavenly prison for two years, or even twenty years.
"That's it."
It only took Zhang Xiaozu less than half a cup of tea to master the surface formation of the Tianlao Formation...
This heavenly prison formation is almost exactly the same as the monster prison. They are both like fishing nets stacked on top of each other, with several layers.
What Zhang Xiaozu can control is only the most superficial formation.
Creak——
He grabbed the cell door handle and opened the old wooden cell door.
