Chapter 20: Imprisonment

The Heavenly Punishment Pavilion is the place where the Heavenly Sword Sect detains disciples who violate the rules of the sect, and it is on the Tiandu Peak where the head Zou Anlong lives, and it is heavily guarded, and it is not allowed to enter unless it holds the seal of the elder or the head of the sect. Ordinary disciples who are imprisoned here are punished by petty, and if they are in the wall of the secret room for a few days, they will be considered a lesson. If the plot is strict, they will be locked up in a dungeon and guarded by spirit beasts. And if someone like Ji Biao commits the heinous crime of killing his fellow disciples, and the same sect he kills is noble and powerful, he will be locked up in the Heavenly Punishment Array.

The Heavenly Punishment Array is one of the several ancient formations left behind from the place where the Heavenly Sword Sect was created, it was originally used for the disciples in the door to test, but now it is in decline from the Heavenly Sword Sect, and there are many sword cultivators in the door, and there are very few people who understand the formation.

In front of a Jindan elder of the Yu family, Ji Biao killed the most orthodox and only heir to the head of the Yu family, and was arrested, which should have been killed on the spot. However, considering that Yu Tianlu's father Yu Jun was still rushing back, the rest of the Yu family could not escape the suspicion of murdering Yu Tianlu, so they simply stepped forward by the head of Zou who stayed out of the matter, and imprisoned him in the Heavenly Punishment Array, which was the most heavily guarded by the Heavenly Sword Sect, and was guarded by several second-generation disciples in the door in turn, waiting for Yu Jun to come back.

Because of the Heavenly Punishment Array, the guards are not very strict, after all, this Heavenly Punishment Array was handed down thousands of years ago, if you don't understand the tricks of the formation, Elder Jin Dan will not be able to get out safely, the so-called guards, in fact, are just a decoration, just check it when you send water and food every day.

Today's second-generation disciple who guards Ji Yu is named Huo Yu, a sword cultivator in the condensation period, born in poverty, with no background, otherwise he would not have been assigned such a task. Fortunately, he himself was very diligent, and he didn't forget to practice swordsmanship even when he was guarding in the formation, and a set of flowing fire swordsmanship had just been practiced, and the disciple who delivered the meal arrived.

However, the disciple who delivered the meal today was changed, and became Huo Ling, who was in charge of the medicine house, Huo Ling was in charge of the distribution of the pills of the entire sect, Huo Yu also knew her, and asked with a smile: "Senior Sister Huo Ling, why are you here to deliver the food today?"

"I used to have a little friendship with Ji Biao. Huo Ling told him: "Uncle Yu Jun will come back the day after tomorrow, and I want to go in to see him, so I begged Uncle Yun Qian to let me come in and deliver a meal and say a few words to him." ”

Huo Yu suddenly showed a clear expression. In fact, Ji Biao, with the strength of a disciple in the Qi refining period, actually succeeded in assassinating Yu Tianlu, which was really a great harm to the Heavenly Sword Sect, and those ordinary and domineering children of the family were scared to the point that everyone was in danger, and none of them, ordinary disciples with no background, who were usually oppressed, did not admire him, and they were all very indignant about his current situation. Even himself, when he was guarding Ji Xiao, didn't restrict his movements in the cell too much, and he didn't have a few days to live anyway. Elder Yu Jun's methods are known to everyone.

"He's in there," Huo Yu lowered his voice and whispered to Huo Ling: "I haven't seen a person who is still calm when he dies, it's a pity to do big things......"

Huo Ling nodded to indicate that she understood, and wanted to go in with her lunch box.

But Huo Yu stopped her.

"Senior Sister Huoling. He stopped the young man who followed behind Huo Ling who seemed to be a disciple of three generations, this young man was also carrying a lunch box in his hand, his face was pale, he couldn't stand steadily, but his expression was very stubborn, especially his eyes, he didn't know what he was thinking, he was very cold.

"This junior brother is also here to deliver food?" Huo Yu asked Huo Ling in confusion: "Senior Uncle Yun Qian has explained, and only one person can be allowed to go in." ”

"He is Ji Biao's best friend, and he came to see Ji Biao for the last time. Seeing that Huo Yu was a little embarrassed, Huo Ling directly reached into his arms, took out a small purple gold gourd, handed it over, and said in a low voice: "There are ten medium-grade fire spirit pills in this, I hope Senior Brother Huo Yu will be accommodating." ”

Hearing the three words of Fire Spirit Pill, Huo Yu's eyes lit up directly. Not to mention that within the Heavenly Sword Sect, even if you look at the entire Nanzhao Kingdom, and even the Vermilion Bird Continent, the pill is a rare luxury. Sword cultivators often go in and out of some very dangerous wilderness and deep mountains to cultivate, and if they are lucky, they can also recognize some medicinal herbs and spirit beast inner pills, but to refine the elixir, you need an alchemist, no matter where you are, the alchemist is a very rare talent, and you must have the sword cultivator to protect her. Only a major sect like the Litian Sword Sect can afford to raise a Jindan stage alchemist like Qingheng Daogu, and there is a steady stream of pills for disciples to cultivate. Moreover, even within the Heavenly Sword Sect, the pills were first followed by those first-generation disciples with talents and backgrounds and the Jindan elders, and in the hands of second-generation disciples like Huoyu, there were some leftover low-grade pills, and these middle-grade Fire Spirit Pills provided by Huoling today were simply a great temptation for Huoyu who was about to break through the late stage of condensation.

As long as you break through the late stage of condensation and enter the peak of condensation, you can be noticed by the elders in the sect, focus on cultivation, and even enter the ranks of a generation of disciples, get the full support and supply of the entire sect, and hit the golden pill wholeheartedly!

Huo Yu made a decision almost instantly.

"Go in," he took the gourd, waved his big hand, and immediately let him go: "Come out quickly, you only have half an hour, and I will hand over the shift as soon as it gets dark." ”

"Thank you, Senior Brother Huoyu. Huo Ling was overjoyed, dragged the crumbling Lin Han, and got into Ji Wei's cell.

From the brightly lit outer room into the dim cell, Lin Han couldn't see anything for a while, as soon as he entered the cell, a wave of damp and cold air mixed with mildew hit him, he was seriously ill and just recovered, and he was almost hit by this cold and fell to the ground. Fortunately, Huo Lingyan quickly supported him.

"Lin Han?" A surprised voice came from the darkness in front of the left: "Why are you here!"

Lin Han turned his head and saw Ji Wei in the corner of the cell, the black clothes on his body were already ragged, scarred, and there were blood stains on his face, but in just a few days, he had lost his weight and lost his shape, obviously seriously injured, his wrists and ankles were locked with black silver chains thicker than his wrists, and they were locked on the wall, and the chains were engraved with very simple patterns, exuding a very powerful coercion.

He hurriedly ran towards Ji Biao.

"Slow down!" Huo Ling followed him like a nanny: "Don't run, we have half an hour, don't worry." ”

Ji Wei was obviously more anxious than Lin Han, but the range of movement of the chain was very small, and he could only barely straighten up and take two steps in Lin Han's direction, and he was dragged by the chain. Fortunately, Lin Han walked over by himself and held his hand.

"You're fine, great!" Ji Biao was very excited: "Did the people from the medicine house cure you......?"

What answered him was Lin Han's hard slap on his forehead.

"Are you crazy?" Although he was weak because of his initial recovery from a serious illness, Lin Han was still heartbroken: "Why do you want to kill Yu Tianlu? You are only in the early stage of Qi refining now, can't you wait until you reach the condensation stage to kill him? Have I taught you to come to the future, even if he dies, he still has a family and a master, and he will definitely hunt you down to the end." His father Yu Jun will be back in the next two days, and you will definitely die by then! Your life is worth more than his, is it worth it to exchange it with such a scumbag!?"

Huo Ling next to him originally thought that he would tell Ji Biao not to kill people, but who knew that this white and pure junior brother Yunhan was teaching Ji Biao how to assassinate Yu Tianlu correctly, and he was suddenly stunned.

"I thought you were killed by him," Ji Biao was knocked by him before he remembered his situation, and explained to him with great pity: "I want to kill him, if you are rescued, he can't hurt you anymore." ”

Lin Han was stunned.

He understood.

He himself knows that Ji Biao is the protagonist of this world, but Ji Biao may not know that now he is just an orphan who has suffered from white eyes and isolation since he was a child, and he is the first person to be so good to him, with his character of revenge and kindness, once he is threatened, he will try his best to get rid of that threat, even if he risks his life.

And the reason why I jumped off the cliff in the first place was precisely because of the same reason.

He already regards Ji Biao as a relative, and Ji Biao is the same.

There is no way to be reasonable between relatives.

"Do you think there is only one Yu Tianlu in this world?" he asked Ji Biao with a calm face: "This is just in a small sect, even if you exchange your life with Yu Tianlu, you can ensure that I will be safe and worry-free for the rest of my life? How do you know that after you die, I will not meet someone like Yu Tianlu again? I am not as talented as you, and my cultivation perseverance is not as good as yours! In the future, if you break into the world alone, you will not be slaughtered by others?"

His words hit the nail on the head, every sentence was poked at the point, Ji Wei was just an orphan like a little wolf cub, doing things all by instinct in his bones, where would he have thought that it would be so long-term and so thorough, he was awakened by his words, his eyes suddenly widened, and he struggled desperately, trying to break free of the black silver chains on his wrists, but no matter how he struggled, the chains did not move. On the contrary, there were many fine silver sparks that rushed out from the quaint talisman seals on the chain, and directly rushed into Ji Ao's body, Ji Biao's body was shocked, obviously these silver sparks were no easier for him than a lightning strike.

Huo Ling listened to a bunch of rebellious words, and was frightened, seeing Ji Biao struggling desperately, and afraid that Senior Brother Huo Yu outside would hear the movement, so he hurriedly said "I'll go outside to watch the wind" and walked out, leaving the two alone in the cell.

Lin Han had just walked past the ghost gate, his face was pale, but he was very calm, he watched Ji Biao struggle without saying a word, squatted down silently, opened the food box, and took out the contents of the contents, it turned out that there were many medicinal herbs neatly stacked in the food box, including ripe Vermilion Bird Grass, spiritual coral grass that had just borne fruit, and some scattered pills, obviously Lin Han had moved out all his family resources.

He picked up a handful of herbs and fed them directly to Ji Biao.

Ji Wei raised his head, cold sweat was dripping on his forehead, the golden fire in this chain was obviously not a good thing, but despite this, his eyes were more ruthless than ever, his dark pupils were bottomless, and his voice was gloomy and said, "I will go out." ”

"I know. At such a critical juncture, Lin Han didn't see a trace of panic on his face, he just whispered to him: "You have eaten all these herbs, there should be nothing in your body that cannot be absorbed, in case my method can't save you, you must save yourself, the head of the sect will be present when the disciple executes, you have to let him see your cultivation talent, even if you expose the bloodline of gods and demons, it doesn't matter." As a last resort, we can still hand over the Escape. ”

"No!" Ji Biao reacted very violently: "You can't hand it over." ”

Once this kind of anti-heaven artifact is handed over, not to mention Lin Han and them, even the elders in the sect are not qualified to touch it, maybe five retreating elders will be dispatched to make a decision, if the news leaks, not only Yixian County, but the entire Vermilion Bird Continent may fall into a bloody storm. And Ji Biao and Lin Han lost their free time, and they completely lost the capital to survive in the troubled times.

"I know I know, that's just a last resort. Lin Han hurriedly reassured him: "Qingheng Daogu of the Heavenly Sword Sect wants to accept me as a disciple, I will find a way to let her save you, but if it doesn't work, I will sacrifice the Shennong Hundred Grass Sutra." Hurry up and eat these herbs, cultivate well, and I'll find a way to save you." ”

He said so much, in fact, he didn't know the bottom in his heart, although Ji Biao is the protagonist of this world, but since he entered this world, the timeline of this world has been completely chaotic, if the butterfly storm he caused Ji Biao loses the chance to be rescued, it will really be over. And he didn't dare to take Ji Biao's life, so he would definitely do his best before things took a turn for the better - otherwise he wouldn't have forced Huo Ling to take him to see Ji Biao as soon as he could get out of bed.

He wanted to explain something more, but Huo Ling outside the cell had already rushed in.

"Lin Han, let's go, the next senior brother of the guard has arrived early. Senior Brother Huoyu is taking care of us, hurry up, otherwise it will be too late. ”

Lin Han hurriedly put down the herbs, not daring to delay any longer, he could only hold Ji Biao's hand, and just wanted to say that he would rest assured that he would do his best to save him out, but Ji Biao held his hand instead, and said in a firm tone: "I will definitely go out." ”

Lin Han wanted to say more, but he had been dragged by Huo Ling to the door. In a hurry, he only had time to hurriedly glance back at Ji Biao, the scarred young man looked solemn, but in order to reassure him, he tried his best to smile a little.

It's a pity that he didn't see the situation after he left - after the entire cell was quiet, Ji Wei, who had been sitting quietly in the dark, suddenly opened his eyes and looked down at the black silver chains in his hands, the silver seals on the dark black chains exuded a simple atmosphere, locking his hands and feet. He was silent for a moment, then suddenly jumped to his feet and rushed to the door of the cell with all his might, like a hungry wolf rushing out of the jungle.

But the chains are faster than him.

Almost instantly, the seal pattern on the black silver iron chain shone brightly, and the silver lines seemed to be flowing with liquid, and countless silver sparks poured into his body together.

Surprisingly, this time his wound did not heal as quickly as usual, but the blood flowed incessantly, and there was no usual aura vortex around his body - in this formation, there was no trace of spiritual energy, let alone cultivation, it was difficult to even maintain the normal operation of the meridians. Therefore, guarding the Heavenly Punishment Pavilion was regarded as the most reluctant task by the disciples, and only second-generation disciples like Huo Yu who had no background would be assigned here.

But Ji Biao didn't touch the herbs left by Lin Han.

He just fell to the ground and rested for a moment, then tirelessly got up again, once again trying to break free from the chains.

The black silver chain connects the entire Heavenly Punishment Array, and the formation can absorb the aura of heaven and earth, so the energy inside is endless, probably because Ji Biao resisted too hard, this time the whipping of the formation came even more violently, Ji Biao was dragged to the ground heavily, and even a few bones were broken, and his consciousness was a little blurred, let alone getting up.

At this time, the golden seal that only appears every time he repairs himself gradually appeared on his body, but this time the golden light was very weak, and it was extinguished just after it was lit up, perhaps because the injury was too serious and had to be repaired, the golden light flickered repeatedly, and it was very difficult to draw a little spiritual energy from the surrounding aura poor environment, this suction was so strong that those herbs left by Lin Han withered in an instant, and the black silver chain was obviously shaken by this suction, and the light was great, but at the moment when Ji Biao was about to be suppressed again, a silver spark on the chain suddenly trembled, and it was dragged into Ji Biao's body by the powerful suction。

The origin of the formation, just like Lin Han saw in the Shennong Hundred Grass Sutra, is the ancient human race imitated the pattern on the body of the spirit beast spirit grass to draw a pattern that can attract the aura of heaven and earth, after tens of millions of years of exploration and accumulation of cultivators, this has formed a system of talismans, formations, all formations are to convert the aura into unique power, and some formations are converted into the power of the land, so after people enter the formation, their bodies will become extremely heavy, and it will be difficult to move an inch, just like the earth spirit array when Ji Biao assassinated Yu Tianlu. Some of them are converted into the power of water virtue, overcoming rigidity with softness, and the Heavenly Punishment Array that imprisons Ji Wei obviously converts all the aura in the formation into the power of silver thunder.

Thunder is the most terrifying force in heaven and earth, even the cultivators who go against the sky, the most feared is also the three nine thunder tribulations from Jindan to Yuanying, a heavenly thunder is enough to wipe out a real person who has cultivated for hundreds of years, as for leading thunder into the body, no one dares to try.

But Ji Biao is a person who has resisted Yu Yanzhen's lightning strike, although the power of this thunder and lightning is purer, almost touching the origin of thunder and lightning, but at the moment it enters his body, he is surrounded by the golden seals left by the Heaven Swallowing Decision in his body, decomposes and assimilates, and finally melts into his body.

With this trace of thunder and lightning power, the wounds on his body actually healed quickly, as if his body could not only absorb the aura between heaven and earth, but also the power of thunder. If any cultivator saw this scene, even the well-informed Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect would be terrified. You must know that cultivators are all mortals, compared to the armor, flying swords, and magic weapons they control, the body is the most vulnerable link, and all cultivators can only use the cultivation techniques of the sect to absorb the gentle aura of heaven and earth, and slowly refine the meridians......

A cultivation method like Ji Biao who goes against the sky is really terrifying.

But as an amateur disciple who was a halfway monk and had never even read a proper book of Heavenly Sword Sect exercises, Ji Biao didn't know what shocking things he had done.

He was just very satisfied that he had found the cultivation method in the Heavenly Punishment Array, and he was bent on cultivating himself a little more vigorously before the arrival of the "Yu Tianlu's father" who could kill him without much effort, he never thought of trusting the Heavenly Sword Sect, he only thought about finding a way to escape when the time came, and then took Lin Han to hide, cultivated by himself, Lin Han planted medicine, and finally practiced into a powerful party, protecting Lin Han from being rampant and domineering in the Vermilion Bird Continent, and snatching it up to plant it for Lin Han when he saw whose herbs were good.
