The ancient giant bear hiding in the world of immortal cultivation

Chapter 437 Going Home
Wang Wu hesitated for a long time.

Song Guangming didn't urge him, but just watched with a smile. This was his territory. He was not a person who repaid evil with kindness, nor was he a person without principles, much less a person who held grudges.

However, he is still willing to give his friends some harmless surprises.

No matter which you choose, there will be plenty of surprises.

After a long silence, Wang Wu looked up and carefully chose his words, "I still really want to go back to my hometown. May I ask what the so-called subsidy means? What are the standards for repairing the Prison of Sin? Can I cultivate after completing the repair task?"

Upon hearing this, Song Guangming immediately frowned and said with some concern, "Wang Zhige, I understand your feelings and your thoughts. You have a level 18 ability to see through things, which gives you a great advantage in repairing magic weapons and immortal artifacts. Back then, wasn't it you who silently repaired the base of the Hidden Yuan Bell in Dragon Head City? From this point of view, your choice of the third path is really quite appropriate."

"However, we've become friends through a fight, and I genuinely admire you. Besides, I don't have a single familiar friend in this prison, it's so boring and dull. You could stay here, we could have a drink, listen to some music, and spar a bit on Taoist magic and supernatural powers, wouldn't that be great? Really, five hundred years is just a short time, it'll pass quickly. After you get out, it'll be a wonderful new beginning, there's no need, really no need!"

Song Guangming spoke quite sincerely, and Wang Wu was deeply moved. He truly deserved to be called a moral exemplar, the embodiment of light and justice, and a holy knight of light.

He then bowed deeply and said with deep emotion, "When I was young and ignorant, I did many foolish things. Even now, I feel ashamed to face anyone. Actually, I have heard my senior sister Qin Yu comment on you. She really admires the Dragon Tail City that you oversaw the construction of. Otherwise, she would not have stayed in Dragon Tail City. It's just a pity that beauty is envied by heaven. Based on this, I believe in you, Brother Song."

"Don't call me 'Big Brother,' call me 'Senior Brother'!" Song Guangming's eyes immediately reddened at the mention of Qin Yu, and he became emotional.

"Yes, Senior Brother Song!"

"Oh, Junior Brother Wang, the thought of your Senior Sister's tragic death makes my heart ache. Just listen to my advice, stay here. Don't choose first place, and don't choose third. With your senior brother here, how could I possibly let you down?"

"Senior Brother Song, I really want to take your advice, but the more I do, the less I can afford to be a burden to you. I made a mistake, and I must be punished. I already dragged you down once in Dragon Head City, and this time I absolutely cannot be a burden to you again, not even a little bit. Senior Brother, stop talking. I choose the third path. I'm going to repair the Prison of Sin!"

"Alright, since you insist, then I won't make things difficult for you. Fortunately, it's only five hundred years. No matter how hard or tiring it is, we can get through it, right? Junior brother, take care. I have duties to perform, so I can't take care of you much!"

Song Guangming sighed deeply, looking utterly dejected.

"Senior brother, please don't blame yourself. I came from that hell of sins, and even if I suffer there, I'm willing to do it!"

"Alright! Let's sign this document then!"

"Thank you for your kindness, Senior Brother!"

Song Guangming quickly took out a document, and Wang Wu also quickly stepped forward to sign it. One was afraid that the other party would change their mind, and the other was also afraid that the other party would change their mind. They were truly going to great lengths together.

Once a document becomes a spiritual covenant, it takes effect immediately and no one can change it.

At that moment, Wang Wu and Song Guangming looked into each other's eyes and saw sincerity in each other's eyes.

"Junior brother, I won't see you off!"

"Senior brother, please wait."

After saying goodbye again, a door behind Song Guangming opened with a rumble, and Wang Wu strode in without hesitation. As soon as he entered, Song Guangming immediately closed the door, as if afraid that Wang Wu would run out at any moment.

"Hahaha! This idiot!"

Song Guangming laughed heartily, feeling quite relieved. He had been thinking about how to scheme and plot to deceive this guy, and he had made many preparations in advance, even among the prisoners in the prison.

It turned out to be so easy.

"Warden, isn't this a bit against the rules?"

At this moment, a jailer asked cautiously, not out of pity, but because their prison was not actually that terrifying. The Jia San prison only held criminals on short-term sentences, and none of them had sentences exceeding five hundred years.

These people, though called sinners, are actually all at least fifth-grade Earth Immortals, many of them are Taiyi True Immortals, and some are even ruthless individuals who came down to seclude themselves in search of peace and quiet.

Although they were prison guards, they dared not offend these elderly men and women.

I don't know what this newly appointed prison warden was thinking, actually bringing the documents from the Second A Prison here to sign. Let's just say that the people imprisoned in the Third A Prison are all members of the Hidden Origin Society.

Those imprisoned in Jia Er Prison are the enemies of the Hidden Yuan Society. To deal with enemies, one must be as ruthless as the cold wind. Therefore, it is only natural to send them to the newly acquired Jia Yi Prison to repair the damaged hole.

"You don't know anything! Get lost!"

With a wave of his hand, Song Guangming chased away the two jailers. Then he casually took out a jade talisman. A moment later, a handsome man with a face that resembled Qin Yu appeared in the form of light and shadow.

Song Guangming then laughed and said:

"Brother Qin, I have successfully completed the mission. The matter has been settled. Wang Zhige has voluntarily gone to the First-Class Prison. He has already signed the documents, and the entire process is legal and compliant. You can rest assured."

"Many thanks to Brother Song for mediating. Alas, my sister had a hard life. The thing she couldn't let go of most before she passed away was her junior brother. She mentioned him to me several times. Now it's all right, she's no longer afraid of being lonely."

The man, who appeared to be Qin Yu's elder brother, said a few simple words, then tossed down a Qiankun bag and vanished in a flash.

Only Song Guangming remained, smiling knowingly.

Although the murderer in Qin Yu's death case has not been caught, it has actually been settled. Neither the old man nor any other party will actively pursue the real murderer. They just want to show the higher-ups that they are all thinking about the big picture, that they are united, and that they have recognized their mistakes. That's enough.

Qin Yu died in vain!
Therefore, no one cared about a minor character who had been banished to prison. And no one cared about the Qin Yu family's thoughts.

So after reviewing the case file, Qin Yu's family set their sights on the unfortunate Wang Zhige.

While he was not the murderer, he at least bears some responsibility for Qin Yu's death.

If he had readily agreed to Qin Yu's request the day before, Qin Yu might have left that very day, and naturally wouldn't have died.

You lowly creature, how dare you disobey my Qin Yu's orders? Now that my Qin Yu is dead, you shall be buried with her.

It's that simple.

The Qin family has already taken care of everything, and even his master, the Black Emperor, hasn't said a word. The Gray Elders, while unaware of the situation, have chosen to acquiesce.

Well then, why not take this benefit? Besides, he's acting according to the rules, and the process is just and legal. Who would stand up for Wang Zhige?

Ultimately, it was because he was cursed with a blood curse, rendered useless, and had no further use.

Hey!
Song Guangming sighed deeply. He was already used to all of this. Fortunately, he didn't have any great ambitions in this life. He had already become a Taiyi True Immortal, which was good enough!
-

At this moment, Wang Wu had been teleported to the ruins of a giant city.

All that could be seen was yellow sand filling the sky, evil winds howling, darkness obscuring the sun, and the wailing of ghosts and wolves!

He stared in astonishment for a moment before realizing that this seemed to be Lu Wuchen's Cloud Cauldron City.
What happened? A once magnificent city has been turned into this horrific mess.

If even such a fortified city is like this, one can only imagine what other areas are like.

"Hey, Wang Zhige, what are you standing there for? Come here right now!"

At that moment, in a fortress within this ruined city that still looked barely intact, someone was shouting loudly.

Wang Wu rushed over in a hurry.

Upon entering the fortress, one sees a gaunt old man in a purple robe holding a document in his hand, waving at him.

Wait a minute, this old man looks familiar. Isn't he the master who helped Song Guangming build Dragon Tail City and create the base of the Hidden Origin Bell Immortal Artifact more than a hundred years ago?

Wang Wu learned the Ninefold Calamity Fire Formation and the Three Realms Spirit Wind Formation from this old man. It's unbelievable that we would meet here again after a hundred years. What a coincidence!

At this moment, the old man in purple robes spoke seriously.

"Wang Zhige, I am Lu Tiangong, a sixth-rank elder of the Yinyuan Society, and currently the head of the Yinyuan Society's Crafts Department, responsible for repairing this Class A Sin Prison. From now on, for the next five hundred years, you will be under my command. This document bears your spiritual mark. If you dare to disobey my orders, I can impose ninety-nine kinds of disciplinary punishments on you at any time according to the terms of this document!"

"I understand. Please give me your instructions, sir!"

Wang Wu behaved very well.

"Alright, now, I'm going to explain it to you. Don't think that just because you've come here, you'll be used to death. This place is certainly dangerous, but as long as you follow the rules, it's easy to survive."

"Now, the three calamities of Yang lightning, Yin fire, and evil wind have leaked out here, ravaging what was once a beautiful little universe. Among them, the evil wind has leaked out the most severely, and it is everywhere. Therefore, we must first take precautions against three things: wind, fire, and lightning!"

"Here, I have prepared a specially made three-proof armor for each prisoner, which can be repaired three times a year and replaced every ten years."

"In addition to these, there are three other subsidies. The first subsidy is 100,000 dou of ordinary spiritual energy per day for those who go out to work with me and my disciples."

"The second type of subsidy is to go to a fixed location for exposed labor, and receive a subsidy of one million dou of ordinary spiritual energy per day."

"The third type of subsidy is for exploring unknown and unexplored areas, which provides tens of millions of units of ordinary spiritual energy per day."

"Of course, I don't care what your past identities were, what crimes you committed, or why you came here. I don't care about external disputes. As long as you do well, I will give you extra rewards myself."

"Therefore, I will follow the example of the Hidden Origin Society and set the three types of subsidies as three levels of tasks based on their difficulty. For every one hundred level one tasks completed, I can guarantee that you can go to my place of residence for a month of secluded cultivation."

"For every hundred level-two missions completed, I can guarantee that you will be allowed to cultivate in seclusion for a year."

"For every hundred Level 3 missions completed, I can guarantee that you will be allowed to cultivate in seclusion for ten years."

"Your current overall strength rating is Earth Immortal Level 5, so I won't make things difficult for you. For now, you can follow my disciples and carry out the first-level mission!"

"Wushuang!"

"The disciple is here."

"Come and get a new prison guard."

"Here!"
