I Transmigrated As A Prison Guard And Suppressed The Princess

Chapter 74 - Netherworld Dungeon



Chapter 74: Netherworld Dungeon

“Tell me in detail.” Xiao Ran asked, his face expressionless.

Qian Zichen did not dare to hide anything. “The Demon God Dark Runes is very tyrannical. He was obtained from an ancient ruin. Once he is successfully refined, he is invincible and can restrain spiritual masters. Each of them has the strength equivalent to Master Realm Level 1. Moreover, they are extremely powerful and very fast. They have no weaknesses.”

“In that case, stronger than the Celestial Varg Guards?”

“The Celestial Varg Guards are nothing! They’re just a written masterpiece of a martial arts proponent. In front of such an ancient technique, they’re not even qualified to carry their shoes.” Qian Zichen retorted with disdain.

“In that case, why do you guys still want Yama’s people to get hold of the ‘Celestial Varg Guards’ manual in the end?” Xiao Ran asked.

“The Demon God Dark Runes may be strong, but the price is too high! But the Celestial Varg Guards are different. Compared to it, refining them is much easier.”

“Among so many princesses, why did you specifically name Xia Luoran?”

Qian Zichen paused for a moment to catch his breath before continuing, “Daoist Priest Chen deployed massive resources in conjunction with the Starry Sky Compass to personally deduce this. From the oracle that emerged, the person who matches best with the Demon God Dark Runes is living within Great Xia.”

“Six months ago, we sent someone to secretly infiltrate Great Xia. After some investigation, all the clues pointed to her.”

“Anymore?” Xiao Ran asked with a chilly look.

Qian Zichen avoided his gaze and said, “That’s all.”

“I guess the lesson wasn’t enough.”

Seeing that Xiao Ran was about to attack again, Qian Zichen jumped out of his skin. “Wait!”

Xiao Ran looked at him mercilessly.

“I—I remembered something else.”

“Speak!” Xiao Ran waved his hand and a palm imprint clapped down on his right leg.

The violent palm strike broke his right leg. His eyes rolled back in pain, and his whole body broke out in cold sweat.

“I—I’m from the Netherworld Dungeon.”

“Be more specific.”

Qian Zichen said, “I’m a spy planted by the Netherworld Dungeon in the Yin Incubation Institute. I’m in charge of collecting information about them. Before I came back just now, I had already sent out the news. The higher-ups have already issued a response. Before the marriage alliance, they intend to kidnap Xia Luoran to ruin their plan.”

“With your abilities, you guys think you can simply barge into the palace?” Xiao Ran asked in a mocking tone.

“Even if all of them came, they would still die if they tried forcing their way into the palace, much less just the few of us.” Qian Zichen said.

“How exactly, I’m not sure! But since the top brass said so, something’s bound to happen.”

“Where are they?”

“I don’t know! It’s always a one-way communication. They also contact me in a different way.” Qian Zichen shook his head.

Xiao Ran frowned and thought about the truth of his words.

He had already been tortured to beg for mercy. Under such circumstances, he would not dare to lie no matter what.

He stared at him.

“Isn’t the Netherworld Dungeon afraid of incurring Emperor Hui Wen’s anger by going up against the Great Zhou Imperial Court ?”

“The Imperial Court and us are mortal enemies to begin with! The purpose of our existence is to take revenge on the Great Zhou Imperial Court regardless of the costs.”

Qian Zichen then probed carefully, asking,

“I’ve told you everything I know. Will you let me live?”

“No!” Xiao Ran said.

He took out the Source Consuming Pearl.

Qian Zichen’s eyes widened as a bold guess popped into his mind.

‘Did you do all this?’

“You’re not too stupid after all!” Xiao Ran said.

He manipulated the Source Consuming Pearl to devour the Immense Righteous Energy in his body.

“No…” Qian Zichen cried loudly in despair.

After totally devouring all the Immense Righteous Energy in his body, Xiao Ran pointed his finger and the Empyrean Conflagration Holy Fire engulfed him, burning him to ashes.

He then put away the Source Consuming Pearl.

With a cold, merciless glare as he looked outside, Xiao Ran muttered, “It’s your turn.”

He left the room and sprang into action.

He would not let anyone from the Yin Incubation Institute off. He executed his moves to devour all their Immense Righteous Energy and then destroy their corpses without leaving any trace.

He didn’t even have time to check the rewards in the Golden Tome of Creation.

Finally, he appeared outside Zhao Jishan’s room.

Of the whole entourage that came to Great Xia, he was the only one left.

The patrolling guards in the courier station had all been knocked unconscious by him and would not wake up for the time being.

Naturally, no one would know what had happened here.

The room was lit. He was still awake.

He pushed open the door and stepped inside.

“Who is it?” Zhao Jishan looked up with a book in his hand.

When he saw a stranger barge into the room in such a brazen fashion yet there was no warning from the patrolling guards outside, his heart skipped a beat. He had already guessed what had happened.

He put down his book and rose from his chair.

He walked menacingly towards Xiao Ran. The force of a Level 2 Profound Realm expert erupted from his body like a massive tsunami.

As soon as it appeared, it covered the sky blocking out all light, gushing onwards in an overpowering pressure.

“Kneel down before the Vice Principal!” Zhao Jishan bellowed.

His aura condensed and morphed into a mountain that descended from the sky and smashed towards Xiao Ran.

“Hmph!” Xiao Ran gave a scornful snort.

His index finger flickered with golden light. With a tap of his finger, golden light rushed out and transformed into a huge lightning net, breaking the oncoming attack violently.

“Your turn.”

As his voice trailed off,

taking one step forward, with the Traversing the Heavens in Twelve Steps, he arrived in front of him when the first step landed.

“So arrogant?” Xiao Ran asked.

He grabbed his head and smashed it against the ground.

Pow!

The ground shattered, revealing a huge crater that buried him. But he wasn’t dead.

A Level 2 Profound Realm warrior’s life force was very tenacious.

However, this was only the beginning. Xiao Ran was very angry and his strikes were extremely brutal.

The purifying spiritual force transformed into a huge golden hand that grabbed one of his legs and smashed him to the ground again and again.

Loud crashing sounds kept blaring out in a steady stream.

At the end, with a final palm punch, he sent him flying.

Zhao Jishan landed on the ground. The sudden attacks severely injured him and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

His scholar robes were torn and his hair disheveled. He looked like a madman, and there was blood everywhere.

He looked at Xiao Ran malevolently, enraged beyond words. “You killed them, didn’t you?”

“You want revenge?” Xiao Ran walked towards him.

“You’ve ruined the plan that we took so long to prepare. I want you dead!” Zhao Jishan’s expression was murderous.

He took out a scarlet healing pill and swallowed it.

This was the Berserk Dragon Blood Pill. It was refined with the blood of a hundred primordial Yin girls and many expensive spiritual herbs.

Once consumed, he would definitely die, but in the fifteen minutes before that, his abilities would increase by a small realm.

An even stronger aura bloomed inside his body. Under the enhancement of the Berserk Dragon Blood Pill, he temporarily advanced to Level 3 of the Profound Realm.

“Heavenly Song Terzetto!”

The Immense Righteous Energy evolved and condensed into three big words, “Righteous”, “Loyal”, and “Justice”. Each big word was imbued with an extremely thick, dense Immense Righteous Energy, and they erupted with supreme power.

“Go to hell!”

The three large words, re-arranged themselves into a triangular formation, rushed in from three different directions.

In a flash, they each grew to a thousand feet in size. A destructive force spread out and smashed towards Xiao Ran.

“Universal Phenomenon!” Xiao Ran counter-attacked.

With a wave of his sleeve, he invoked his purifying spiritual force. The world instantly turned dark. A gigantic sleeve containing thousands of golden light rays flashed out like lightning. In an instant, everything vanished, including Zhao Jishan.

In the next second,

Xiao Ran let him out with only one breath left.

He used the Source Consuming Pearl to absorb all of his Immense Righteous Energy, then finished him off with a crushing palm strike.

Xiao Ran removed the green jade pendant on his waist. It contained a space of 50 cubic meters. Inside, he found two scrolls. They were the ‘Iron Blood Dragon Horse’ and the “Heavenly Secrets Interlinked Crossbow” that he had taken out from the Hall of Annunciation during the day.

The Golden Tome of Creation flipped open to a random page. The rewards of the Yin Incubation Institute and the others were all stacked together.
