Chapter 730: Seven-Fold Prison

Yin Qi smiled slightly and said, "How could this junior deceive you, Senior? I wonder if you have heard of the Seven-Fold Prison?"

"Seven-Fold Prison?"

Shoumu Laoren shook his head: "I am familiar with the Eighteen Levels of Hell, though."

The Seven-Fold Prison was secretly refined by the Chaos King using the Inner Heaven and Earth of seven Heaven-Defying King-level experts. To avoid suspicion, he never used it, instead disguising it and integrating it into the Eighteen Levels of Hell.

It was precisely because of this that the Seven-Fold Prison was never exposed.

Apart from the Chaos King, Yin Qi was the only one in this world who knew this secret, so it was normal for Shoumu Laoren not to know.

In the original story, if the Chaos King had not actively exposed it to deal with Dugu Baitian and the others, this Seven-Fold Prison would likely have remained a secret; it was the Chaos King's secret weapon in his attempt to replace the Heavenly Dao.

Yin Qi smiled slightly and said, "Senior is half right. The Seven-Fold Prison is seven of the levels within the Eighteen Levels of Hell, and each level was refined from the Inner Heaven and Earth of a Heaven-Defying Realm expert."

Shoumu Laoren rolled his eyes and said irritably, "Little Yin, are you pulling my leg? I have been in and out of the Eighteen Levels of Hell countless times, it's like my own home; where would these perfect worlds come from?"

"Except for the Feiqi Disanjie on the eighteenth level and the broken Fourth Realm, I know the origins of every other level like the back of my hand."

"Seven-Fold Prison, seven perfect worlds."

"How is that possible!"

Seven perfect worlds meant the Inner Heaven and Earth of seven Heaven-Defying Realm experts.

Who had the ability to extract the Inner Heaven and Earth of seven Heaven-Defying Realm experts and refine them into the Seven-Fold Prison?

Yin Qi said, "The Seven-Fold Prison was secretly refined by the Chaos King and is his strongest secret weapon. In this world, besides me, I fear no third person knows of it."

"How do you know?"

Shoumu Laoren's expression turned serious, his gaze burning as he looked at Yin Qi.

The Chaos King was a loyal lackey of the Heavenly Dao.

Since ancient times, the opponent had indeed killed many Heaven-Defying Realm experts from their side; counting them up, there were exactly seven.

In that case, the Seven-Fold Prison that Yin Qi spoke of was highly probable.

But how did Yin Qi know?

Yin Qi smiled slightly and said, "This junior has studied the Heavenly Secret Path quite a bit. I was previously interested in the Eighteen Levels of Hell, so I performed a Calculation on each level and accidentally discovered this secret."

"The Seven-Fold Prison is the third through the ninth levels."

"They look like Ordinary small worlds, but they have actually been disguised by the Chaos King."

"If it were not so, would it not have been exposed long ago?"

As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place.

I fear that Dugu Baitian and the Demon Lord would never have guessed that the Chaos King would place his strongest secret weapon in the Human Race's base, the Human Realm, right under their noses.

"The Heavenly Secret Path!"

Shoumu Laoren was skeptical.

He understood it too, but he could not say he was proficient in it.

If Yin Qi knew about the Seven-Fold Prison, either his Heavenly Secret Path had truly reached the pinnacle, or this was a trap to lure him in.

If that were the case, then Yin Qi was very likely a person on the side of the Heavenly Dao.

He pretended to be deep in thought and probed, "The Chaos King is a Heaven-Defying King; even if we joined forces, I fear we could do nothing to the Seven-Fold Prison, let alone claim them for ourselves."

"Of course."

Yin Qi nodded and said, "With just the two of us, we are indeed not strong enough, so we need helpers. The Dugu Family is not bad; they should be able to gather five Heavenly Tier experts. With the seven of us working together, I think that should be enough."

At this point, he smiled meaningfully: "Senior is Xuanxuan's master; I believe you are also familiar with Situ Mingyue, Dugu Xiaoxuan, and Dugu Xiaoyue."

"Hehe, it is settled then. When shall we go?"

Shoumu Laoren chuckled.

If they added the five Heavenly Tier experts of the Dugu lineage, the six of them would truly not fear any tricks Yin Qi might play.

If he did not have some means, he would have died countless times already.

Yin Qi thought for a moment and said, "Let's wait a while. Dugu Xiaoxuan has returned to the Heavenly Realm; she should be releasing her brother, the Heavenly Demon, soon. When she does, she will definitely come to find me, and I will discuss this matter with her then."

"How long will that take?"

Shoumu Laoren was restless; he rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "I will just go to the Dugu Family myself. By the way, where should I find you then?"

"Shenfeng Academy."

As Yin Qi said this, he prepared to leave. Before departing, he suddenly turned back and looked into the depths of the Shenmo Lingyuan, where he could vaguely see a blurred figure smiling brilliantly at him, revealing snow-white teeth.

"Dugu Baitian!"

Yin Qi felt a chill and also smiled slightly.

This place was too close to the Shenmo Lingyuan; since he and Shoumu Laoren had discussed the Dugu Family, it was impossible for Dugu Baitian not to have noticed, which was why he had given Yin Qi such a brilliant smile.

Firstly, the Seven-Fold Prison was the Chaos King's secret trump card; if it could be taken for one's own use, it would be a blow to the Chaos King.

Secondly, since Yin Qi had called upon the Dugu Family, the other five perfect worlds would naturally belong to the Dugu Family.

This was truly a heaven-sent opportunity.

With the cultivation of Situ Mingyue and the others, they might not break through to the Heaven-Defying Realm after refining a perfect world.

But at the Heavenly Tier, they would absolutely be invincible existences.

Shoumu Laoren seemed to sense something.

Please... bookmark... the... 6... 9... book... site...!

He also hurriedly turned his head to look, but saw nothing.

The reason he had been guarding this place all along was that he felt the Shenmo Lingyuan was strange, as if someone was hiding inside, but he could never discover them.

"Nothing there. Senior, this junior will take his leave."

Yin Qi shook his head.

He waved his hand and stepped into the void.

Shoumu Laoren gave a muffled snort. Watching the void where Yin Qi had disappeared, he muttered to himself, "This kid Yin is truly mysterious; to think he could actually discover the person hidden within Shenmo Lingyuan?"

"But, who exactly are you?"

It was as if he were asking about Yin Qi's identity, and also as if he were asking about the identity of the person in Shenmo Lingyuan.

"Forget it, I had better head to the Heavenly Realm first."

………

Heavenly Realm.

The moon of the Dugu Family.

The return of Dugu Xiaoxuan caused a massive sensation.

Situ Mingyue said with joy, "Xiaoxuan, it is good that you are alright, it is good that you are alright. I have been searching for you all these years, but..."

Dugu Xiaoyue even pulled on Dugu Xiaoxuan, "Big sister, where have you been all these years? I traveled all over the Human Boundary and the Heavenly Realm, yet I never sensed your aura."

"Stepmother, little sister, actually, during the battle in the Taigu era..."

Seeing her family, Dugu Xiaoxuan was also overjoyed, and she recounted the events of the Taigu battle and her experiences after waking up.

Situ Mingyue said, "So the strange phenomenon in the Small Six Paths yesterday was caused by you all. However, according to what you said, this person's background is truly mysterious; I have never even heard of him. If your father..."

Speaking of this, she became somewhat sorrowful.

Dugu Xiaoxuan hurriedly said, "Stepmother, there is no need to be sad. Yin Qi said that Father has not fallen; he only hid after being heavily injured. Hmm, and there is also little brother; he is also still alive, and like Father, he does not know where he is hiding."

Situ Mingyue's beautiful eyes lit up, and she hurriedly asked, "Did Yin Qi really say that? Ever since your father went missing after the Taigu battle, I have searched every boundary and found nothing, so how could he know?"

After the excitement passed, she could not help but feel suspicious.

As his wife, she understood Dugu Baitian very well.

If Dugu Baitian had truly hidden himself, he would certainly be plotting some major event and would never let anyone know his whereabouts.

Even she did not know whether her husband was alive or dead, so how could the other party know?

Dugu Xiaoyue also nodded repeatedly, "That's right, big sister, how did he know?"

Dugu Xiaoxuan's expression was solemn as she said seriously, "Stepmother, little sister, this person Yin Qi is extremely mysterious and proficient in the Heavenly Secret Path. According to him, this was all figured out through Calculation."

"But I don't quite believe it."

"Furthermore, he seems to know Father and the others very well; I even suspect he knows Father's whereabouts."

"It is just that no matter how I ask, he simply refuses to say."

"By the way, do you know about the Cultivation of Hundred Professions?"

"In these two years, Yin Qi has successively released thirty-five types of Inheritance, some of which even I have never heard of." (End of this chapter)
