The ancient giant bear hiding in the world of immortal cultivation

Chapter 337 The Great Wilderness Prison
Wang Wu was somewhat lucky.

While he was engaged in a fierce battle with Liu Zongbai, the outside world was indeed in complete chaos.

Of course, on the other hand, the moment the Heavenly Pride Ranking was activated was precisely the day that the Serpent Emperor and others planned and launched their scheme.

Only at this moment can this supreme magic weapon be restrained.

Therefore, he was merely there by chance; the main storyline wasn't with him. Whether the Five Poisons and Yueshan did something or not wouldn't really matter.

But why would a mere bear demon like him be informed of the major plans that the Snake Emperor, Stone Demon, Tree Grandfather, and Nine-Tailed Emperor, all of whom are of the highest rank, are plotting?

If even a hint of it is leaked beforehand, it's considered a loss!

These four individuals have been plotting this for countless years.

However, the actions of these four individuals will have a profound impact on every living being in this prison, regardless of whether they know about it or not, or whether they participated in it.

At this moment, Lu Wuchen had already run 100,000 miles away. He was crying and trembling. He really did not expect that the Snake Emperor, whom he looked down upon, would actually succeed right under his nose, demonstrating superior skill.

They want to escape!
He wants to too.

But, he can't.

A wave of drowsiness was washing over him, and from the Soul Jade in his mind, a majestic voice was ringing out.

"Wuchen! Guarding the Great Wilderness Prison is the duty of my Lu family. Are you trying to rebel? Step aside immediately and let me summon the divine soldiers to suppress the escaped prisoners!"

The owner of this voice was none other than Lu Ji, the ancestor of the Lu family. For tens of thousands of years, Lu Ji had used this method to suddenly descend, control the heavenly tribulations, and force one after another great demon, one after another human cultivator who violated the Immortal Alliance and was left alone to ascend.

As a prison guard, I never slack off!
But today, this unfilial descendant Lu Wuchen dares to defy his ancestor!
Damn it!

"You beast, are you going to give way or not?!"

Thunder rumbled, and Lu Wuchen nearly fainted!

But instead, he drew his flying sword and severed one of his legs and one of his arms! He would rather harm himself than fall asleep, because he knew all too well that as long as he was in a dream, Lu Ji would descend.

He laughed maniacally, fighting and struggling frantically. He looked into the distance and saw that the Serpent Emperor and the others were not pursuing him because time was of the essence. They had to take advantage of the fact that the Supreme Treasure of the Heavenly Pride Ranking was not ready to protect him and launch the most ferocious attack on the prison.

Look, they've arrived!

The Serpent Emperor transformed into its true form, its body tens of thousands of miles long, and rammed violently into the sky. It was clever of it not to crash into the large disc, which was the real trap. The countless bodies that had been forcibly lifted into the sky on that disc were the biggest obstacle!

With a single strike, the heavens and earth trembled, the four seas boiled, mountains collapsed, lakes dried up, and the sky and earth split apart in the wilderness!
My father-in-law is awesome!

Lu Wuchen laughed wildly, then suddenly cut off his tongue; he was determined to hold on.

He wanted to watch, to see how this cage was broken!

"Beast!"

He started bleeding from all seven orifices, and his soul began to be injured, but it didn't matter!

The Serpent Emperor continued its bombardment, seemingly oblivious to its own mortality. Scales as large as mountains fell off, and blood rained down, but it didn't care at all. It continued its frenzied bombardment until a dense mass of fragments appeared in what appeared to be nothingness. The Heavenly Grade One Refined Gold Qi of the Ten Thousand Year Stone Demon swept across the area, tearing open a gash tens of thousands of miles long!

But behind the opening, there was a deep, dark, and heavy wall. No, it wasn't a wall. Nobody knew what it was. Even the finest gold energy of the highest rank could only leave a mark tens of meters deep, and it was rapidly healing itself.

This thing needs to exceed its limit!

You guys need to go help!
Lu Wuchen could barely open his eyes; he was about to fall into a deep sleep until he gouged one of his eyeballs out.

Hahaha!
He gave a silent, bitter laugh. Great! He's energized and invigorated now. Come on, I can watch a few more rounds!
Snake Emperor's side has already been intercepted by outsiders. Lu Wuchen thought of his Madam Lu. Was she also intercepting them? What an arrogant person she was. It was a real loss that he didn't force himself on her!
But it's very good, very good!

From the Southern Wilderness, that hidden dragon from Shenwu has arrived. It should know that the Left and Right Demon Emperors have also arrived. Eastern Wilderness, Northern Wilderness, hahaha!

Even a first-rank cultivator from the human race rushed out.

Are you still pretending to be stupid?

Damn it, you guys were just pretending to be stupid before, but you're really stupid to still be pretending to be stupid now!
East Sea Demon Clan, North Sea Demon Clan, West Sea Demon Clan.

Not bad, not bad, even the remaining vice leaders of the Immortal Alliance have joined.

What's there to discuss or plan? When the opportunity comes, just seize it. Seriously, there won't be another chance like this.

From the Stone Demon to the Tree Grandfather, then to the Snake Emperor, and the Nine-Tailed Emperor, especially the Nine-Tailed Emperor, who was a figure from the same era as our ancestor Lu Ji, but later disappeared without a trace, and unexpectedly survived for a full 100,000 years!

Their scheme was almost unprecedented.

This time you failed, and the outside world won't give you another chance.

Charge! Charge!
Lu Wuchen strained to open his last eye, trying to find Wudu's figure. He was his only son, even though he had been tricked by the Snake Emperor. Even though his mother was too ruthless, willing to die rather than betray him, she was plotting against Lu Ji.

Who told him to be Lu Ji's only descendant who can control the arrival of the new world?
He lost this scheme willingly and accepted his defeat wholeheartedly.

Because he also wanted freedom, because he also wanted to go out and see the world.

"Hurry up, hurry up! Stop hiding! Just get out of here, that's better than anything else."

"Wait, something's happened to the Prodigy Ranking? Who's pulling the strings on the Prodigy Ranking? The ranking actually dimmed for a moment... Xiong Wu? He can actually shake a Supreme Magic Treasure? Haha, I underestimated him!"

Lu Wuchen greedily took one last look. At this moment, there was no longer any barrier or hatred between the human race and the demon race, the spirit race and the monster race. They gathered in the sky above the Eastern Wilderness and began to condense their blood energy, using the blood energy of countless demon races to gather in one place, and then gather it into the Serpent Emperor. This old guy, it will die.

Those outside have already discovered that they are desperately manipulating Yang Thunder, Yin Fire, and Evil Wind to carry out their killing spree.

They are strong, but Grandpa Tree, the Ten-Thousand-Year Stone Demon, and the Nine-Tailed Emperor are not weak either.

not to mention

There were too many human cultivators who escaped from prison, too many demons, plus thousands of ancient trees...

Moreover, at this very moment, the entire Great Wilderness and the entire Four Seas were shaken.

Countless demons and human cultivators are rushing here, unless they lack the strength or cannot comprehend it.

"Hey hey hey!"

Lu Wuchen chuckled inwardly as he gouged out his last eye. What, you old man, you're not convinced? I'm just a kid at heart.

I don't care whether I live or die!
But you're not getting out!

Lu Wuchen was surrounded by darkness, covered in blood, yet he was so excited that he danced around.

But he could still hear and feel that the power gathered from the blood and qi of countless demons was crashing into him through the Serpent Emperor's body in the most terrifying, ferocious, and tragic way!

"boom!"

"Buzz!"

A tremendous echo reverberated throughout the world. Where there hadn't been any collapse or cracks, everything was torn apart. Blue sky, white clouds—nothing remained, only the pitch-black walls. This was the true face of this prison! "Boom!"

At the same time, all the human cultivators who were fighting or waiting on the Prodigy Ranking finally felt that enormous shock.

As a result, all the large battlefields collapsed at the same time, and countless cracks appeared on the large circular magic array below, indicating that it was about to be damaged.

Before Wang Wu could even snatch back Liu Zongbai's out-of-control flying sword, he sensed the Snake Emperor's death throes!
It's dead?
So is this why Liu Zongbai couldn't get reinforcements?

"Boom!"

The sky is falling!
Is the Serpent Emperor escaping from prison?
Throat, thump, thump! Wang Wu felt his blood surging wildly, a tragic and frenzied feeling about to ignite him, forcing him to go wild and vent!
On a whim, on a whim!

It was just a whim!

This is the Serpent Emperor's bloodline calling, summoning!

In an instant, he understood the whole story.

However, he chose to remain calm.

As his inner and outer energies circulated and the Five Elements Spiritual Array evolved, a wisp of pure energy arose in his spiritual platform. Combined with his sense of danger, his gaze suddenly turned to the sky, where a figure was rapidly approaching, its target the purple-gold banner.

At that moment, the purple-gold banner was struck by Liu Zongbai's natal flying sword and seemed to be damaged. This, in turn, caused damage to the supreme magic weapon—a completely unexpected turn of events.

In a flash, Wang Wu realized that the purple-gold banner must be some kind of crucial hub, seemingly an important component of the supreme magic treasure, the Heavenly Pride Ranking.

Because of the battle between Liu Zongbai and him, because this old guy was tricked into using his ultimate move, the flying sword that was charged up ended up destroying this supreme magic weapon by sheer coincidence.

While it's absurd that the supreme artifact was destroyed, what if it was the core of an even larger magic array?

After glancing at the large, cracked circular magic array below, Wang Wu had already made his decision.

It immediately ducked into the tortoise shell, relying on its level 22.9 passive stealth ability to swoop down.

Almost simultaneously, the figure flying down from directly above made its move without hesitation, unleashing twelve natal flying swords. The sword light was like a rainbow, and it launched a one-sided massacre against all the human cultivators without reservation.

The original second and third ranked Yu Jinyan, the fifth ranked guy, and the sixth ranked Mu Qingli were all fighting each other. Now they wanted to join forces to fight against them, but it was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

Four top-tier second-grade experts were wiped out in a single encounter.

Wang Wu had already jumped onto another turtle shell, his eyes practically popping out of their sockets in astonishment.

He hadn't actually anticipated it, because his sense of danger hadn't even detected the danger that person brought after appearing.

In other words, the gap is too large.

Especially the opponent's natal flying sword, which seems to be of the third rank of Heaven, or at the very least the fourth rank of Heaven.

If Wang Wu dared to charge at such a being, the opponent could deal him 108,000 damage in a second with a single basic attack!
At this moment, the man first retrieved Liu Zongbai's flying sword, roared, and with a backhand slash, directly shredded and crushed the tortoise shell from before!

Damn it, the shell of a first-grade turtle demon! It took Wang Wu six seconds of charging up to blast a big hole in it, but the opponent shattered it with a single sword strike!

A very bad feeling arose spontaneously.

Wang Wu had originally intended to destroy the three large flags below, but now he had no such intention at all.

How could I dare to have any such thoughts!

Fortunately, the man only took the purple-gold banner, and with a wave of his hand, the other three banners were also taken away, and then he soared into the sky.

They completely ignored the countless creatures frantically trying to escape from prison.

It seems they also feel powerless to reverse the situation?
The world is in ruins, but at the gaping hole tens of thousands of miles wide that the Serpent Emperor smashed open, bright sunlight is streaming in. Outside, there is blue sky, sea, and land—almost no different from before.

Wang Wu hesitated for a moment, but still decisively summoned the demonic wind and rushed over; he also wanted to escape from prison.

Although this day came so suddenly, it was at least the most successful opportunity.

Moreover, the crack is shrinking.

A moment later, Wang Wu reached the rift with almost all his might. There were still a large number of demons and human cultivators frantically fleeing, but there were hardly any first- or second-grade cultivators left. Only the corpse of the Snake Emperor was still struggling to hold on.

No, it's still alive.

Because the crack is still healing, and it's holding it up.

Wang Wu seemed to see the old man wink at him.

"Come on!"

A voice echoed deep within my mind.

Wang Wu was horrified, even somewhat numb as he rushed out of the crack, until the sunlight outside fell on him, and it seemed no different.

But when they turned back, they saw that the prison that had trapped these countless lives was just a dilapidated stone tower, over fifty meters high, surrounded by withered grass.

The words "Great Wilderness Prison of Crime" were written on it.

There was a building around here, and traces of battle could still be seen on the ground. All around were vast, desolate mountains. All the escaped demons and humans disappeared as soon as they entered.

Looking again at the Serpent Emperor, and that crack, it was less than half a meter long...

Wang Wu was extremely shocked, but dared not linger any longer. He shrunk to the size of a sesame seed, then summoned a demonic wind and sped along the ground.

He had only run a few hundred miles when he suddenly stopped.

Because several lines of information appeared silently.

"The fragment of Liu Zongbai's Soul Jade has been absorbed, and the Soul Jade level has been raised to level 5. Information processing in progress..."

"Should we absorb the fragments of Liu Zongbai's soul?"

"Warning: This is your best way to quickly learn about the outside world, but it may also allow powerful beings outside to accurately target you through Liu Zongbai's soul fragments, thus inflicting a fatal blow on you."

"We will not bear any responsibility or consequences; you must make the decision yourself."

-

Huh?
Wang Wu was taken aback, but then his spiritual energy indeed sensed dozens of soul fragments surrounding him, looking like a thief trying to hide his embarrassment.

He was willing to bet that if any powerful cultivator in this realm were to see this, they would be able to spot the clues with just a glance.

In a moment of impulse, he disregarded all information. The pale fire surged forth, burning Liu Zongbai's remnant soul to ashes. Not only that, he also used the pure energy of his spiritual platform to scan his entire body to ensure there were no abnormalities before continuing on his journey.
