In the dark and gloomy prison, he suddenly found a pair of eyes staring at him not far away. Even though Lin Chen was very courageous, he was startled.
Lin Moer and Yan Lao also discovered those eyes.
A closer look revealed that in the cell in front, there was an old man in his fifties or sixties. The cell was too dark, and the old man was completely shrouded in shadow. It would have been difficult to detect it unless he looked carefully.
"Hey, there is actually a living person here?" Mr. Yan showed joy on his face and walked towards that person. Since there is still a living person here, maybe we can get the information that he and others want to know from his mouth.
"Help me, please beg me, let me out!" Seeing Lin Chen and the others approaching, the old man's eyes were filled with ecstasy as he begged.
Lin Chen and the other three arrived outside the metal door of the cell.
Old Yan asked: "Who are you and why are you locked up here?"
The old man said: "I... I was originally the sect leader of a force called Xuanyuan Sect in Tianwu territory. I was imprisoned here because I offended the people of Tianwu Divine Sect."
"Being imprisoned here by the Tianwu God Sect?" Lin Chen and the other three looked at each other. The Tianwu God Sect was destroyed by the Shengyan Sect tens of thousands of years ago, but this person actually said that he was imprisoned here by the Tianwu God Sect.
, As for the so-called Xuanyuan Sect, Lin Chen and Yan Lao have never heard of it.
"How long have you been locked up here?" Lin Chen asked.
"More than 80,000 years!" the old man said with some despair, "Originally, there were prisoners from the Tianwu God Sect in other cells, but for some reason, no one from the Tianwu God Sect has ever come here in the past tens of thousands of years.
The other people in the cells died when their time came, so I guess I am the only prisoner in this place."
Lin Chen and the other three secretly thought in their hearts that the Tianwu Divine Sect had been replaced by the Shengyan Sect tens of thousands of years ago, so it was naturally impossible for anyone to come again.
At the same time, they confirmed in their hearts that this was a place used by the Tianwu Shen Cult to imprison prisoners. As for whether the Tianwu Shen Zang was also here, they could not be sure.
"Have you seen four people come here in the past few days, one of whom is the person in this portrait?" Lin Chen took out the portrait of Frozen Flow and asked the old man.
"Is this the location of Tianwu Shenzang?" Yan Lao asked.
When the old man saw the freezing flow on the portrait, a flash of hatred flashed across his eyes, but neither Lin Chen nor Yan Lao noticed it, and they were all looking forward to his answer.
The old man said: "I can tell you what I know, but can you free me first? As long as you help me regain my freedom, no matter what you want to know, I will tell you!"
Lin Chen and Yan Lao were delighted. According to this man's intention, he seemed to be able to answer the questions they had just asked?
"How can I get you out?"
Lin Chen glanced at the metal door in front of him. There was no lock or anything on it. It was obvious that he was not using a key to open the cell door. He had previously tried to see if the dark brown metal could be destroyed. To his surprise,
Even if he tried his best, he could not destroy the cell door.
On the one hand, this unknown metal is extraordinarily hard, and on the other hand, it is because this space seems to have been stabilized by formations. It can affect the whole body with a single move. Even with Lin Chen's strength, it is difficult to destroy it.
, if it is destroyed by force, it may destroy everything here.
"This...I don't know. At that time, I was brought here by people from the Shengyan Sect, and then a light suddenly appeared under my feet, and I fell down. The next second, I appeared in this cell." The old man.
said.
"oh?"
Lin Chen and the other three were all shocked when they heard this. It seemed that there were some mechanisms in this place. If they and others touched the mechanisms, they might be imprisoned in a cell.
Lin Chen looked down at the ground and found that there were subtle lines on the ground. These lines formed a swirl-like pattern that met at the center, and there was a hemispherical groove in the center.
Only then did Lin Chen notice that there was such a pattern in front of each cell.
"At that time, I just stepped on that pattern, and the next moment, I was locked in a cell!" the old man said hurriedly.
"Could it be that something needs to be put into this groove to release you?" Lin Chen guessed.
"Ms. sir, look at the top!" At this time, Lin Mo'er pointed at the top and said.
Lin Chen looked up and saw a stone sculpture on the ceiling that looked like a unicorn head. It looked like a strange beast was trying to get out of the ceiling.
In the mouth of the alien stone sculpture, there is a metal bead the size of a table tennis ball, which is full of mysterious lines.
Lin Chen's eyes lit up, he jumped up, took out the bead, and put it into the groove on the ground.
Buzz——
The bead made a slight buzzing sound, and then the whirlpool-like pattern bloomed with cyan light. The light became more and more dazzling. The old man in the cell suddenly disappeared and appeared in front of Lin Chen and the others!
"Haha! Hahaha! Okay! Great! My uncle Yuan is finally out!" After the old man realized what he was doing, he burst into laughter, and his voice stirred up waves in the silent corridor.
"So that's it. These cells are opened with the help of these beads. However, according to this person's statement, when he stood on this pattern, he was directly transported into the cell. But we just walked all the way, and on these patterns
After stepping on it, why wasn't it teleported to the cell? It seems that it has been too long and the patterns have expired. Or, perhaps, there is some prerequisite that needs to be triggered first."
Lin Chen's Xindao Tianwu Divine Sect was indeed one of the peak forces in the past. Even the place where prisoners were held was so exquisite.
"Now you can tell me, where is the person in this portrait? Has he been here recently?" Lin Chen looked at the old man and asked impatiently.
The pleading look on the old man's face has disappeared, and it has become very arrogant, even a little ferocious. He sneered: "Of course I know him, it's this damn guy who caused me to be locked up in this cell!"
Lin Chen's expression changed: "What nonsense are you talking about? You were imprisoned here tens of thousands of years ago, and he..."
"Hahaha! Idiot! What I said just now was just made up casually to deceive you idiots! I am Tai Shuxing, the elder of Shengyan Sect. Leng Dongliu brought me here, but I was killed.
Lock him up, I will kill him now! If you three idiots free me, then I will show my kindness and let you die more happily without torturing you!"
Tai Shuxing sneered again and again. He was out of trouble at this time. With his strength in the early stage of the Taoist Realm, he would never put the three people in front of him in his eyes. Naturally, there was no need to continue to pretend to be pitiful.
