Chapter 1306: The Ancient Demon
Too strong...
This person is far too strong!
He was effortlessly pulled out by the other party, unable to even stir a ripple in their eyes. The gap in strength was beyond imagination.
Such a being was far beyond what any human cultivator could compare to!
From fear to shock, and then to obediently staring in awe.
The entire process took only a few moments, yet it completely shattered the monster's tens of thousands of years of experience and knowledge. Not a trace of its previous imposing demeanor remained, and now it was like a deflated ball, a complete transformation from heaven to earth.
Looking at the now obedient monster, Yi Feng's eyes showed no ripple of emotion.
This kind of thing was all too normal.
He had already anticipated it.
Even though this place seemed dangerous, it was unlikely that he would encounter a major boss right at the start. If it were that easy to meet a powerful being, he wouldn't have failed so many times in his attempts to find death.
Sigh...
Life is not easy.
Hopefully, this time he can succeed in finding death.
A trace of loneliness flashed in Yi Feng's eyes as he examined the withered little monster.
"What are you, and what's the situation with this place?"
His indifferent gaze was as calm as if he were looking at an ant, and his casual tone showed no fear, exuding the demeanor of a peerless expert!
This was more than just hitting an iron plate—it was like hitting an indestructible diamond plate!
The monster was so scared that sweat poured down like rain!
Not daring to show the slightest bit of arrogance, it immediately trembled and forced a smile!
"G-Great one!"
"This lowly one is Lin Kui, a member of the demon race."
"As for this place, it was built by the cultivators of Frostwind Island to imprison and seal all kinds of captured monsters and spirits. Besides demons like me, there are also exiled human cultivators, ancient ferocious beasts, and terrifying demons."
"For a long time, we have been sealed by formations, our vitality dwindling. To survive, we have no choice but to fight and kill each other for vitality..."
"This lowly one truly did not know of your arrival, and only acted out of greed to survive. I beg for your forgiveness..."
The demon seemed quite perceptive, answering in great detail in just a few sentences, and even throwing in a plea for mercy. It was the epitome of knowing when to yield, almost reaching the level of enlightenment.
Yi Feng nodded slightly and continued to ask the key questions.
"So, according to you, there are truly powerful beings inside? What level is your strength in this Demon Prison?"
The withered monster quickly nodded, bowing repeatedly!
"Great one, you are wise, so wise!"
"There are many incredibly powerful beings in the Demon Prison, both demons and devils. Those truly terrifying ancient beings have reached a level of cultivation that is beyond comprehension. They have no need to waste their strength on vitality, and have long hidden in the deepest parts of their respective territories!"
"This lowly one's strength is pitiful, and I can only fight for vitality in the outer areas. It was out of desperation that I offended you, Great one. I beg for your forgiveness..."
"My strength is nothing in the Demon Prison. Above me are eighty-thousand-year-old matriarchs, and below me are three-year-old children. I beg you, Great one, to spare my life!"
The explanation was quite detailed, but the nonsense made Yi Feng frown.
This little monster was truly a strange one...
To save its life, it would say anything, even throwing away all dignity. It was just a weak demon with barely any vitality—where would it get a three-year-old child?
Yi Feng was no fool and wouldn't be easily fooled.
After a moment of thought.
He deduced that the first half of the information was likely true, but he ignored the latter part of the plea for mercy and continued to ask with a stern face.
"So, deep inside, there must be terrifying demons and monsters. Who is the strongest, and where can they be found?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the withered little monster trembled all over!
Good heavens...
What exactly was this person's intention, asking about the strongest right off the bat?
The little monster was shocked once again, but it didn't dare to think too much and quickly answered with trepidation.
"The strongest beings are undoubtedly the devils!"
"Devils are inherently cruel and bloodthirsty, constantly devouring other living beings. All races have long had an unspoken agreement: whenever a devil appears to fight, everyone will unite to attack it."
"Otherwise, everyone would eventually be devoured by the devils!"
"Over time, even though many devils have been exterminated, a few ancient beings still hide in the deepest darkness. But they still strike fear into all the creatures of the Demon Prison. The name 'Demon Prison' comes from this—from the very beginning, this place was built to seal the terrifying devils."
After a nervous whisper, the little monster put on a flattering smile.
"Great one..."
"This lowly one has told you everything I know. I beg you, in light of my sincere repentance, to spare my life..."
Yi Feng finally nodded in satisfaction.
"Hmm, not bad."
This place truly did not disappoint. Not only were there ancient beings from various races, but there were also the terrifying devils that all creatures feared. It seemed that his quest for death had great hope.
This time, it should be a sure thing.
Looking at the little monster's flattering smile, Yi Feng nodded in satisfaction.
"Don't worry, I won't kill you."
Although this monster was weak and posed no threat, keeping it alive could yield more information, which was far more useful than killing it for a tiny bit of experience.
The little monster was overjoyed, secretly congratulating itself on its cleverness. If it hadn't been so quick-witted, it would have been doomed today!
"Thank you, Great one! Thank you, Great one!"
But before it could finish bowing.
Yi Feng looked ahead into the darkness, his eyes already shining with anticipation.
"Don't thank me yet."
"Since you know so much, hurry up and take me to find the devils."
As soon as he finished speaking.
The little monster's smile froze on its face. Looking at Yi Feng's harmless smile, it suddenly felt a terrifying chill sweep over its body, as if it had just seen the true face of a devil.
In an instant!
The little monster's eyes widened in shock, its pupils trembling!
