After watching the old man in gray go away, the gloomy man gradually straightened his back and glanced at Jiang Chen.
"What's your name?" he asked indifferently, his expression even more arrogant, and he looked at Jiang Chen coldly.
Jiang Chen's eyes narrowed slightly. The middle-aged man with a gloomy complexion had the same cultivation level as Mo Min Wudao. He was a monk from the ninth level of the True Essence.
But he had a strong hunch that if Min Wudao fought with this person, Min Wudao would definitely lose.
This person has a strong evil aura and a cold and ruthless look in his eyes. He must be a murderer who is extremely terrifying.
"Jiang Chen." Jiang Chen's voice was equally cold.
"Are you the mine slave from Blackstone Island?" His tone was a little surprised, as if he was a little surprised that Jiang Chen came here.
In fact, a few days ago, some Xuanwu Sect disciples had already spread all the stories about Jiang Chen on Blackstone Island to the Xuanwu Sect.
His deeds have attracted the attention of many people. Even within the Xuanwu Sect, he is definitely a proud son of the emperor.
But later, after learning that Jiang Chen was contaminated by the Haie clan, the attitude of the Xuanwu Sect's senior officials towards Jiang Chen seemed to have changed.
The middle-aged man knew that he was a ruthless and talented person, and his knowledge of swordsmanship was extremely terrifying.
It's just a pity that this person is so arrogant and ignorant that he has taken the initiative to taint the karma of the Haie clan.
He neither wants to have too much contact with such a ruthless character, nor will he take the initiative to offend him.
However, the fact that this person was sent here from above is something worth pondering.
"Put away what you did on Blackstone Island. When you come here, everything must follow my rules." There was a hint of warning in the middle-aged man's words.
Without waiting for Jiang Chen to respond, he turned around and walked towards the underground palace.
Jiang Chen was thoughtful, raised his steps, and followed silently without squinting.
After crossing the black iron gate, the eyes were pitch black, and two huge scarlet lights faintly appeared.
These two red lights exuded bursts of killing intent. When Jiang Chen saw these red lights, the hair on his body stood up, as if he was being watched by a terrifying being.
Jiang Chen's eyes instantly shrank, but after seeing no reaction from the middle-aged man in front of him, he remained vigilant and continued to follow.
As he got closer, Jiang Chen finally saw the true face of the red light in Mount Lu.
When he saw the scene in front of him, Jiang Chen was shocked. He did not expect that there was an extremely vast stone statue in this so-called underground palace.
This stone statue is a giant ghost head with a huge head and two horns, a green face and fangs.
And those two red lights are clearly the eyes of this head.
This giant ghost opened its fangs and mouth at this moment, and the extremely deep mouth did not know where it led.
In fact, the wide passage in the giant ghost's mouth is the entrance to the thirteenth floor of the Xuanwu Sect's underground palace.
The thirteenth floor of the underground palace is also the thirteen extremely spacious dungeons of Xuanwu Sect.
Various powerful beings are imprisoned inside, ranging in strength from the first level to the thirteenth level.
In the mouth of the giant ghost, you can clearly see the Yin energy filling the air, and there seems to be a silent roar, spreading towards Jiang Chen.
There is also an indescribable terrifying evil spirit brewing inside, but this evil spirit seems to be sealed by the underground palace and cannot be released.
Each fang of this giant ghost stone statue is hundreds of meters long and wide. In fact, each fang is an entrance to the underground palace.
The middle-aged man led Jiang Chen into one of the spacious passages, which was connected to a dark and gloomy staircase.
This staircase goes deep into the ground and stretches for thousands of meters. Each step is more than one meter long. It is twenty meters wide, like a giant dragon winding through the depths of the ground.
The material of the stairs is very solid and seems to be made of an ancient stone. The surface is covered with strange symbols and spells, exuding a mysterious atmosphere.
The surrounding air is very humid, and various strange plants grow on both sides of the stairs, making people feel eerie and creepy.
This staircase seems to lead to another world!
On the surrounding dim walls, there is a candlestick every ten meters away. There are some faint fires lit on this candlestick, which flicker in and out, making the place even more gloomy.
Jiang Chen took a deep breath, not showing it on the surface, but actually he was vigilant in his heart. When he first stepped onto the stairs, the surroundings were still silent, but as he gradually went deeper, ferocious shouts and crazy roars kept coming from the depths.
These voices all revealed a strong sense of madness and murderous intent, as if they were imprisoned by inhuman monsters.
Countless murmuring voices seemed to turn into an invisible force, constantly entering Jiang Chen's mind, making him unable to help but assimilate, and burst out the infinite murderous intention in his heart!
A ghastly and terrifying aura rushed toward him, like a soul-locking ghost in hell, trying to drag Jiang Chen into hell, where he would never be reincarnated!
Jiang Chen was shocked. In this gloomy aura, his soul felt as if it had fallen into an ice cave. He seemed to have become an ordinary person. He could only watch helplessly as his soul seemed to be pulled out and gradually fell into the endless abyss.
.
"snort!"
Jiang Chen snorted coldly, and the illusion in his eyes suddenly shattered. He was no longer the Wu Xia Amen of the past. His will was so firm, and he had transformed into a more powerful spiritual power. His eyes instantly returned to indifference and disappeared.
A little ripple.
The killing intent here was so strong that Jiang Chen faintly felt a sense of excitement that even he could not explain.
It's a long story, but it actually happened in an instant, from the appearance of the illusion to the end of it, less than the blink of an eye.
The gloomy man in front also secretly slowed down his pace deliberately, wanting to see Jiang Chen's performance.
He knew very well that none of the beings imprisoned on the first floor of this underground palace were simple things, they were all murderous creatures.
Therefore, the underground palace is filled with the killing and resentment of these creatures all year round. Over the years, this murderous and resentful gas is almost condensed into substance.
The further you go into this place, the stronger the murderous resentment you will face.
Even some monks with a similar level of cultivation as him will have a strong and terrifying illusion when they enter the underground palace for the first time.
This illusion will make people feel immersed in it, and only those who have lived here for decades like him can ignore these auras.
The gloomy man looked calm, and he noticed that Jiang Chen always looked calm as usual.
As time passed, he noticed that Jiang Chen gradually began to release an icy murderous intent, and he felt like he was blending into the surrounding area.
He was slightly surprised, but then when he thought about it, he felt that it was a bit natural.
Even he would be frightened by this man's murderous intent!
"There is something really special about people who can be valued by the superiors."
The middle-aged man began to put away his inner disdain. He already understood that Jiang Chen must have something special about him.
He began to put away his contempt and stopped testing.
After a short time, the two finally came to the end. It was a dark entrance, and they didn't know where it led.
Jiang Chen's eyes narrowed slightly, he said nothing and followed the middle-aged man into the entrance.
When he saw the scene inside, Jiang Chen's eyes narrowed slightly.
As far as the eye can see, there are tens of thousands of independent cages arranged like hundreds of meters high!
The surroundings are tens of thousands of feet high, and darkness and coldness coexist.
At the same time, bursts of roars and roars, mixed with countless curses, rumbled into Jiang Chen's ears.
The sound was so loud that if it were an ordinary fifth level of true energy, it would definitely make the ears ring and the seven orifices bleed.
When the middle-aged man came in, eight men in black clothes with strong evil spirits were standing in front of them respectfully, clasping their fists and bowing deeply.
"Lord Luo!"
The voices of these four people were sonorous and powerful, and their words seemed to convey an extremely cold chill from their bones.
In particular, their gazes were all cold and ruthless, which made Jiang Chen pay more attention. He discovered that these four people were all at the ninth level of True Essence.
It's just that he has a sinister aura and is obviously not an ordinary person.
Jiang Chen was thoughtful and looked around. The first floor of the underground palace was divided into four areas.
Each area is separated by walls over ten meters wide.
"Zhao Jiu, this person is Jiang Chen who was arranged to enter the death row. All future executions of prisoners will be handled by him alone. You can arrange this matter."
The middle-aged man spoke calmly, gave instructions, put his hands behind his back, and headed straight for the black buildings not far away.
As for the others, they all bowed and didn't even look at Jiang Chen.
They left each other, but among them, a thin man with a pale face stayed where he was, looking at Jiang Chen with a smile on his face, but this smile was very scary.
It was obviously a kind smile, but in Jiang Chen's eyes, it seemed as if he was smiling but not smiling.
The man's eyes flashed, he felt something was wrong, and smiled at Jiang Chen.
"It's been a long time since anyone came to the death row." The man's eyes were meaningful and he seemed to be sighing.
"Jiang Chen, right? Welcome to join the death row. Come on, let me introduce you to our death row." Zhao Jiu, a thin man, sneered, and then led Jiang Chen to the eastern area.
This place has a tic-shaped shape, with rows of cells arranged neatly.
The moment Jiang Chen stepped into the death row, a roar and shouts suddenly broke out.
This roar and shout, like sonic magic, crazily squeezed towards Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen looked calm, seemingly unaffected by this stormy shouting.
Even when Jiang Chen passed by the cell, countless pairs of dirty hands stretched out from inside.
Some death row inmates even stuck out their heads from the iron bars of the prison cell, their eyes full of fire, staring at Jiang Chen, and making bursts of crazy sounds.
"The newbie has such tender skin, it must taste delicious!"
"This is the smell of fresh flesh and blood. Come on, let me take a bite!"
"Believe in me and I will grant you an immortal body and immortality."
"Submit to the devil and you will get the devil's law,"
"Let me out, damn Xuan Dao Sect, one day I will kill you all!"
Behind the iron bars, a pair of red eyes stared at Jiang Chen, revealing a sinister light. Emotions such as greed, bloodthirsty, and ruthlessness permeated the surrounding area.
In fact, these people have been imprisoned here for a long time and are invaded by the aura of this place every moment. They can easily lose their minds and be assimilated by this place.
Of course, if you can maintain your sanity over many years, your will and belief will definitely be far superior to others.
Jiang Chen saw a few people, always sitting in the cage, silent.
It seems that no matter what happens in the outside world, they can't shake their attention.
"Junior Brother Jiang, although this is the first floor of the underground palace."
"But the area is actually very large. The prisoners detained here are divided into four areas, one, two, and three, according to the severity of their crimes, and there are five areas in total where the warden is located in the central area."
"The central area is the core of the first-level underground palace. On weekdays, no one is allowed to enter without the warden's summons."
"For example, our fourth area is the death row area. The prisoners held there are all those who will be executed as soon as the time is up."
"So Junior Brother Jiang, you have to be careful. It's a life-threatening job here, especially since Mr. Luo personally told you to execute the prisoners on death row alone." Zhao Jiu walked in front of Jiang Chen.
"Although the cultivation of these prisoners will not exceed the realm of gods and humans, they are all insidious, cunning, and murderous beings."
"If you don't pay attention, you will definitely die miserably." Zhao Jiu said with deep meaning in his eyes.
"Thank you, Mr. Zhao, for reminding me." Jiang Chen followed Zhao Jiu, clasped his fists and nodded, his eyes unwavering.
Seeing that Jiang Chen was unmoved, Zhao Jiu did not continue to inquire in depth, but instead introduced the matter of the underground palace.
"Each area has two hundred guards and two team captains."
"And I am one of the squad leaders on death row."
"Beyond the team leaders of the four major districts, there is the warden." Zhao Jiu's introduction gave Jiang Chen a general understanding of the underground palace.
He also did not expect that after coming to Xuanwu Sect, he would be arranged to enter here by the Xuanwu Sect's superiors.
With his current talent and combat power, even if he cannot be a core disciple, he can at least be an ordinary disciple.
"Is it the cause and effect of the Haie tribe?" Jiang Chen could also roughly guess what those people were thinking. He was simply convinced that he would never be able to break through to the level of heavenly cultivation, so he randomly found a place to arrange himself.
He even arranged for himself to execute the prisoners on death row alone, just to kill himself with the help of the prisoners on death row.
But this was also within Jiang Chen's expectation. He had killed so many Xuanwu Sect disciples, so it would be strange if those people didn't take revenge.
"That's fine." Jiang Chen took a deep breath. He had many secrets in his body, so coming to the underground palace was a good choice now.
Since the cultivation level of those death row prisoners will not exceed the realm of heaven and humans, there is nothing to worry about.
"This place is more like my blessed place." Jiang Chen's eyes showed a hint of joy, and a crazy idea grew in his mind.
The two of them walked to the end. Zhao Jiu stood in the vast cage area behind him and looked at Jiang Chen again. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
This smile is full of eerie horror.
"Junior Brother Jiang, this is the area I am responsible for. Starting today, all the prisoners here will be executed by you personally."
Jiang Chen looked at the gloomy cell in front of him, his eyes eager to try.
"That's exactly what I meant!"
