Chapter 1761: Chapter 945: Whistling Arrival
After the Prison Chief finished talking with the young man, they started to open the main gate of the prison.
This is a main gate. Once it is opened, many cell doors appear.
In short, the middle here is a wide walkway made of the floor, while on both sides are iron cages. Lin Feng noticed that the quality of these cages was at least at the Ninth Grade Treasure level.
No matter how high your cultivation is, once locked inside the cell, you can’t get out unless someone from outside opens the door for you. The mystery of this is yet another profound secret.
Various people were housed in the cells on both sides, most imprisoned due to heinous crimes.
It wasn’t until they walked inside the prison that they saw some civilians. Lin Feng, closely following the young man, asked him, "Why are these civilians locked here? What exactly is their crime?"
The young man, expressionless, continued walking as he replied to Lin Feng, "These people are used for experimenting with Shadow Soul Grass. Every few days, someone will bring the developed medicine for experiments."
Lin Feng’s mind immediately conjured up the cruel scene of these people using civilians for drug testing, and the thought sent a chill down his spine.
Hua Shengmi reminded Lin Feng, "Kid, don’t get excited, and don’t forget your purpose for coming here."
Lin Feng’s originally agitated mind began to calm down after hearing Hua Shengmi’s reminder. Hua Shengmi was right, his purpose here is to uproot the problem, and unless they eliminate the mastermind behind this, more civilians might suffer.
As Lin Feng walked, he asked the young man, "Who was that man in the brocade robe earlier?"
The young man was surprised and momentarily stunned upon hearing Lin Feng’s question.
"Were you next to us earlier!" At this point, he found it somewhat unbelievable, wondering how this kid was lurking nearby without being detected by the Poison Master—an irrational occurrence.
Facing the young man’s question, Lin Feng coldly snorted a few times and said to him, "Isn’t that a stupid question? Of course, I was watching from beside you, otherwise how would I know that the man in brocade clothes had come."
"He is our master, the Sect Leader of the Poison Sect, known in the martial world as the Poison Master." The young man spoke with an obvious hint of trepidation.
Lin Feng mockingly replied, "What kind of thing is this Poison Sect, claiming to be the Poison Master? My poison methods are far superior to your Poison Master!"
Hua Shengmi felt a bit embarrassed for Lin Feng, thinking to himself: Wasn’t it just that he obtained some Medicine Pills from Star Fall Mountain, why make it sound as if he personally made them.
In fact, Lin Feng did make them himself, because while practicing Cultivation Techniques on Star Fall Mountain, he also practiced Elixir concoction. As Star Fall Mountain only had recipes for poisons, Lin Feng concocted according to them. It turned out to be useful today.
As they walked through the prison, the latter cells became increasingly smaller, seemingly designated for high-profile offenders.
The guards here were of higher rank, typically above the Six Spirit Knot, and they moved in a formation, with combat strength comparable to the Seven Spirit Knot.
Because combined attack capabilities are stronger than individual ones, plus their mutual understanding of the Array, their power is certainly not weak.
The young man with the Five Spirit Knot was so weak; in front of them, he was like a child, easily crushed. Although Lin Feng’s cultivation was only at the Four Spirits Seal, his physical quality was comparable to the Nine Spirit Joints, making him naturally undaunted.
With the Sky-cutting Sword in hand, Lin Feng’s strength reached the Eight Spirit Knot. Due to the Innate Spiritual Seed, people with similar cultivation likely couldn’t utilize the Sky-cutting Sword.
Lin Feng had already put away the Sky-cutting Sword, now only holding the broadsword hanging at his waist.
This broadsword, carried by Lin Feng, was evidently a Third Grade Treasure, a mass-produced weapon by the Court.
"We’ve arrived." The young man stopped in front of a cell door. Through the iron bars, Lin Feng saw the people inside, each wearing Heaven Alliance attire, sitting dejectedly on straw mats.
Lin Feng addressed them, "You are people of the Heaven Alliance, aren’t you?"
A leading woman stood up, and seeing her, the others immediately turned their attention to Lin Feng.
The woman responded, "What’s the commotion about this time?"
Lin Feng instructed the young soldier next to him to order the Gatekeeper to open the cell, then asked them, "Are you from the Heaven Alliance?"
A man responded, "We are all from the Heaven Alliance. Just tell us, are you here to experiment on us with poison drugs?"
Lin Feng was slightly annoyed, thinking to himself why these people couldn’t understand, and said, "I’m an ally, don’t talk. I’m here to rescue you."
The leading woman asked, "What proof do you have for us to believe you?" Lin Feng handed over the Sky Alliance Token to the woman.
Only then did the woman believe that Lin Feng was there to rescue them and said to Lin Feng, "Just give us your instructions; we will fully cooperate."
Lin Feng instructed the woman, "The Alliance Hierarch sent me to rescue the alliance members imprisoned in the west. By coincidence, I encountered this situation and found you. Now you must follow me out."
Upon hearing Lin Feng’s words, the woman nodded to him immediately.
Lin Feng escorted them safely out of the prison, finally freeing them from danger at that moment.
"Quickly inform Biyao and convey this news to the Alliance Hierarch," Lin Feng told a few people outside the cave.
