I've never felt happy to become an immortal.

Chapter 145 Prison Storm
A corner of the western part of the city.

The prison suddenly trembled.

The violent tremors were like an earthworm turning over, and dust fell all over the prison.

A demonic cultivator who had been imprisoned for many years opened his eyes and saw a faint crack appearing above him. He reached out and touched it, and could vaguely feel the dampness and breeze emanating from it.

More than twenty years have passed, finally...

"Damn jailer, the upstairs is leaking, why aren't you fixing it yet!"

This member of the demonic sect started cursing.

I finally found a chance to vent my anger.

However, his voice did not elicit any response.

The Avici Prison is an underground prison built by the Lin family during the previous dynasty. It can be considered a private prison built by the Lin family as a prominent clan. Its structure is undoubtedly a secret of the Lin family. Even the prison guards on duty here are all members of the Lin family, and each of them is quite capable.

Once any changes are detected within the Avici Prison, the internal mechanisms will automatically activate, and the sealing stones will fall down. There are several sealing stones in total, and various internal mechanisms will automatically activate. If you are hiding inside the cell, you will be fine, but if you try to escape, you will basically have no good ending.

Even the prisoners themselves knew this.

The prison guards conduct a brief knowledge lecture every month to try to dispel the prisoners' ideas of escaping.

The person in charge of closing down the Avici Prison was one of the Lin family's own relatives, along with two guest retainers, making a total of three and a half members of the Lin family stationed there.

The sheer size and influence of this prominent family is evident.

Even if a guest elder of half-master level is dispatched to assist in the surrounding fires and suppress the riots within Langya Prefecture, the two half-master level experts remaining here are sufficient to handle most situations.

Then the warden of the Avici Prison paused slightly, then swung his palm out from a distance, creating a sudden gust of wind that instantly pierced through a wall fifty paces away.

The house, which was shaking violently and about to collapse, collapsed. From it emerged an elderly man with gray hair, the shape of his sleeves resembling some kind of jet-black feather.

The wind blew past the man's sleeves, and he circulated his inner energy, causing the feathers on his sleeves to unfurl, making him appear as imposing as a black-winged eagle.

"Are you the Black-Winged Eagle?" The warden asked, one hand behind his back, his gaze serious, as he called out the other's name.

"Warden has a good eye. I haven't appeared in the martial arts world for more than ten years, yet I was still recognized at a glance."

"Heh, you're all old fogies from the same era. It's normal that you recognize your infamous demonic path." The warden sneered, "You three were once powerful figures who roamed several states. However, more than ten years ago, you caused trouble in Wuzhou. One of you was captured and another was killed by my Lin family. You were just lucky to escape."

The Black-Winged Eagle sneered, "Knowing our reputation, I advise you to obediently make way. I'm only here to break him out of prison and release my third brother, Snow Mountain Eagle."

"The Golden-Eyed Eagle was the strongest, and therefore died the fastest. You probably still have several decades left to live, instead of living a good life, you came here to do something as stupid as a prison break." The warden said dismissively, "Back then, I was one of the men who captured you three thieves. Capturing you today will finally settle my old score about letting you go all these years..."

"Want to see your brother? Sure!"

"Let's go in together!"

……

The sealing stone sealed off both the inner and outer prisons.

The prisoners on the first level weren't particularly heinous. With proper rehabilitation for a few years, they could be released. Some even had a skill to rely on and performed well enough to gain the Lin family's appreciation and obtain a decent job and income. There was no need for them to escape.

Basically, after sensing the earth dragon turn over, and seeing that the roof wouldn't collapse, they would either turn over and continue sleeping, or go about their own business.

The second and third floors housed more vicious criminals.

Therefore, it was quite lively.

Many people are destined to spend their lives in prison. When they have no chance to escape, they are quite obedient. But once they find a possibility of escape, they will no longer sit idly by and wait for their doom. Their eyes will suddenly light up.

A figure moved like a ghost through the second-level prison cells. He was initially dressed as a prison guard, but as he walked, he reached behind his head with his right hand and gently flicked away the skin covering his face, followed by his body. In no time, the prison guard had transformed into a faceless and shapeless person.

Tai Xiaobao, one of the Tiger and Leopard Duo who was relatively close, saw someone walk by and was about to speak when he saw that the person turned his head and found that it was a faceless person!
He was startled and immediately shrank back.

Tai Chenghu also gasped: "You are faceless and formless!"

The faceless and formless one, ranked seventy-ninth on the list of people!

Although his strength hasn't reached the level of a grandmaster, being able to enter the rankings means he's in the top tier below grandmasters, and his achievements are all genuine.

The faceless man let out a low laugh, his voice sounding like that of a child in his teens. He stopped directly in the middle of the road, and strangely enough, the mechanisms did not activate.

Upon seeing this, the demonic cultivator in the nearby prison's eyes lit up even more: "Faceless and Formless, you actually know the structure and mechanisms of this place?"

“Of course, otherwise, how could I have the courage to move freely here? There is no place in the world that I cannot infiltrate.” Wumian Wuxiang had previously infiltrated the Southern Chu Forbidden City and intercepted the important intelligence for Ye Bushou that ‘Wuqing, one of the Four Great Constables, is Jiang Lianxing’s fake identity.’

He almost single-handedly broke the balance between Southern Chu and Northern Zhou.

Now he has appeared here again, marking his second attack on Southern Chu.

"Hahaha, you've come at the perfect time! I've been in jail for far too long, I can't wait to get out and go on a killing spree!"

"The Lin family, the Lin clan, this time we'll slaughter them until the blood flows like a river! Good lad, open the cell doors now!"

"We are both on the demonic path, so helping a brother out is a great kindness that I will surely repay in the future!"

The faceless and formless man casually opened a nearby cell and tossed the keychain in his hand over.

"You have been imprisoned for too long, your energy channels have been sealed, and you have been corroded by drugs. Even if you regain your freedom, you will not be able to recover your combat strength in a short period of time."

"The Lin family is in chaos right now and can't take care of itself, so this is the best time for you to get out."

"If you want to escape, don't think about protecting yourself. Release as many mortals as possible and rush out together." "If we take as many members of the Lin family as hostages as possible, we might still have a chance."

After saying this, the faceless and formless man left.

The two brothers, Tiger and Leopard, looked down at the keychain in their hands and fell into deep thought.

The snow eagle in the next cell urged, "What are you waiting for, juniors? This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to escape! Quickly open the cages and set us free!"

The other demonic cultivators urged, "Hurry up! If you don't have the guts, you can hand over the key to us!"

"Shut up, all of you!" Tai Chenghu roared. "If you say another word, I'll throw the key into the latrine!"

The entire second-floor cell fell silent for three seconds, then erupted into a cacophony of profanities and threats.

"Brother, shall we not run away?" Tai Xiaobao asked tentatively.

Tai Chenghu sighed: "It's not that easy. Releasing prisoners to create chaos is just an attempt to incite us to attack the Lin family. Do you really think that we can escape by taking the Lin family members hostage? You underestimate the millennia-old heritage of this prominent family."

“We are just expendable pawns. You saw the Faceless Ones walking down there just now. They must have other plans.”

During his two days in prison, Tae Seung-ho suddenly understood many things.

He wasn't actually a true demon; he was labeled a demon because he was forced to take the blame for many things.

I remember when Tae Seung-ho introduced himself, he clearly stated that he was a "Hunter of Fate".

Although this profession is also shady, it is much better than the truly corrupt path of demonic cultivation.

In the rules of the martial arts world, it was walking on the edge of a gray area. An eye for an eye is a characteristic of the martial arts world. If one's own strength is insufficient, is it reasonable to hire a highly skilled assassin to carry out revenge for oneself?

Previously, I chose the lucrative profession of "Hunter of Fates," and my targets were mostly people from the martial arts world, who were all about killing each other.

Moreover, the people in the martial arts world who are targeted are most likely not innocent; they have all built their reputations on the bones of others.

Sometimes, when an assassin becomes famous, he is inexplicably accused of many crimes.

They started committing atrocities against the people, killing entire families, and even rape and plunder. Then they became known as the demonic path... There's no way to explain it. On the contrary, the more missions they took on, the more commissions they received.

Previously, I didn't care about my reputation at all. I wasn't the kind of notorious thief who harmed ordinary people. I was just doing my job for money, and I still had professional ethics.

But they can't be called good people at all; they are all just part of the vast group of people in the underworld. Some are like wild beasts, some are like antelopes, and they are like hyenas.

But now things are different; he feels as if he has ushered in a turning point in his life.

If things continue like this, he'll definitely spend the rest of his life in prison.

There are two ways to get out.

1. Prison break;
Second, meritorious service!
Escape means following this group of demonic cultivators to the very end. When they break out, they'll truly become demonic cultivators who indiscriminately kill innocent people. Look at this group of veteran demonic cultivators with their eyes glowing red. Even Snow Mountain Eagle next to them has taken hundreds of lives and committed numerous massacres.

The opportunity to make a contribution is in your own hands.

"Little brother, what do you think?" Tai Chenghu couldn't make a decision on his own, so he asked his younger brother.

Tai Xiaobao pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "Big brother, I really want to improve. There's no future in the demonic path."

“We are hunters of fate, businessmen, and we have never stooped to the level of the demonic path with no bottom line.”

Upon hearing this, Tai Chenghu understood and, without saying a word, threw the key into the latrine.

"Unless Bi Dongyou comes back to life, no one should let them out."

The demonic cultivators on the second floor of the prison cursed incessantly, but there was nothing they could do; separated by the cells, they could only vent their anger.

The Tiger and Leopard Duo thought to themselves, "This should at least be considered a major meritorious service, and hopefully it will reduce my sentence by twenty years."

……

The faceless and formless one was unaware of the situation on the second level; he continued downwards.

The third floor almost exclusively houses serious offenders.

After leaving the keys behind, he basically didn't pay any attention to them.

We went straight to the fourth floor, which was almost empty... This floor was originally used to imprison the most heinous members of the Lin clan, but it had not been reopened for more than ten years.

We reached the fifth floor.

There is only one cell here, and at the end of the dark passage is an iron door.

A faint feeling of suffocation lingered around my neck.

Even the top experts on the Human Ranking felt an inexplicable pressure.

Just like when Ah Xing first entered the research institute for abnormal humans and felt it through that door, it was as if countless streams of blood would gush out if the door were opened.

Behind the door is a Grandmaster of the Earth Ranking.

Without a face or form, it did not approach, but turned around, raised its hand, and took out an ancient talisman, slapping it against the wall.

"What needed to be done has been done."

"As for whether you can take Su Wuwo away... that's up to you!"
