A vortex suddenly appeared between his brows and spun between them. There was a crack. His entire glabella split open. A figure similar to him was projected from his glabella.

It was his Demon avatar!

Clearly, Xiang Zizhen could already control his demon avatar. He wanted his demon avatar to attack together with him. However, due to the drop in his cultivation, be it his main body or his demon avatar, his overall strength was greatly reduced.

He could not use many methods.

The benefit was that the pollution brought about by the old woman had a much smaller effect on the demon avatar than on the main body. This allowed Xiang Zizhen’s demon avatar to attack as much as it wanted.

Pfft!

Finally, after an intense battle, Xiang Zizhen successfully made the old woman’s body stop sitting cross-legged in the flower core pattern. “Now!”

The moment the old woman moved, Xiao Shi had already crushed the minced meat in his hand. He rushed forward as quickly as possible. From the beginning to the end, Xiang Zizhen’s goal was not to defeat or kill the old woman. It was to make the old woman no longer presiding over the entrance to the imprisonment ground.

Only by forcing her back could Xiao Shi have the chance to enter the imprisonment ground. The minced meat that Xiao Shi had crushed was an important thing that Xiang Zizhen had given him previously that could make his figure invisible for a short period of time.

The two of them cooperated very well.

Xiang Zizhen was in charge of restraining the old woman. Xiao Shi seized the opportunity and headed straight to the imprisonment place.

In an instant, Xiao Shi had already rushed to the spot where the old woman was sitting cross-legged. In his invisible state, the old woman did not notice him at all.

The moment Xiao Shi stepped into the entire flower core pattern, his figure immediately disappeared from the entire pattern. He directly passed through this entrance. He had entered the imprisonment ground hidden in this prison.

The sky was dark and gloomy.

Xiao Shi appeared out of thin air in a quiet valley. The entire valley did not look big. There was a rare sense of peace. When Xiao Shi appeared, he was surprised to discover that his cultivation that had fallen previously had actually recovered at this moment. He had returned to his original spiritual sense stage.

“Could it be that this is not the Xingluo Territory?” Xiao Shi fell into deep thought.

Logically speaking, all the martial artists in the Xingluo Territory had been mobilized by the lord of the Xingluo Territory now, and their strength and cultivation had decreased. No matter where they were in the Xingluo Territory, it would be the same. No one would be spared.

However, after entering this place, his cultivation level had recovered. This made him realize that this place of imprisonment was very likely no longer in the Xingluo Territory.

“No. That’s not right! The feeling this place gives me… is a little like the feeling 1 had in the Illusionary World earlier, but it’s also a little different. There’s no illusionary feeling here, but a real world.”

Xiao Shi clearly felt that this imprisonment place was different. No matter what, he had to be careful in this mysterious and unfamiliar place.

Branches suddenly extended from Xiao Shi’s body and turned into a figure beside him.

It was his main body!

Before he came, Xiao Shi had already hidden his main body in his avatar through the Ancient Cang’e Tree. In this place filled with danger and unknowns, it was definitely not enough to rely on the ability of his clone.

The main body had to come in.

So he had prepared an item to disguise himself. He was prepared to secretly disguise his main body as a clone after entering this place so that he could continue to hide his identity and not expose his true identity.

Now that he was longer acting together with Xiang Zizhen, there was no need to disguise himself.

“Let’s take a look at the environment here first.”

After the main body appeared, Xiao Shi immediately spread his spiritual sense to investigate this valley. Under the spread of his spiritual sense, he strangely discovered something. His spiritual sense was actually unable to detect anything here.

Although his spiritual sense could spread normally, the spiritual sense that spread out could not sense anything and lost the effect it should have.

“Looks like 1 can’t use my spiritual sense to investigate this place!”

This was not surprising. As he experienced more and more, he had long discovered that he could not use his spiritual sense to investigate many high-end places. Before entering this place, he was already prepared to not be able to use his spiritual sense to investigate.

Xiao Shi looked around. Currently, there was nothing abnormal in his vision, and he did not sense any danger. To be safe, before Xiao Shi took action, he first took out the Luck Condensation Pill and swallowed it without hesitation.

Buzz!

After swallowing the Luck Condensation Pill, streams of luck invisible to the naked eye immediately condensed towards Xiao Shi. It caused an invisible luck vortex to appear under Xiao Shi’s feet.

The luck of this imprisonment place gathered towards Xiao Shi under the effect of the Luck Condensation Pill.

Unfortunately, luck could not be seen, touched or felt. As a result, Xiao Shi did not know how much his current luck had increased. But one thing was for sure. As long as this imprisonment place was not that kind of place of bad luck, his current luck was definitely better than usual.

This also calmed Xiao Shi down a lot. He took a deep breath. He began to follow the path in the valley and advance.

Although he did not have his spiritual sense to investigate, tree branches seeped into the ground and quickly spread forward under Xiao Shi’s feet, allowing Xiao Shi to control the situation within hundreds of meters in advance.

Even if there was a crisis ahead, he could also deal with it immediately with the branches of the Ancient Cang’e Tree.

After he walked for a distance, the journey was calm and uneventful. He did not encounter anything. Until he came to a stone tablet in the valley.

This was a tall and ancient stone tablet. The entire stone tablet was about five meters tall. The stone tablet was covered in wind, frost, and dust, and there were blurry words.

Xiao Shi stared at the contents of the stone tablet.

Valley taboo: One, when the wind blows in the valley, please stay where you are and don’t move or speak. Wait for the wind to stop.

Two, if you see a remnant soul in the valley, remember not to attack.

Three, if you see a corpse or wreckage in the valley, be sure to bury it.

Four, all items in the valley could not be picked up.

Five, if you encounter a fork in the valley, you have to choose the leftmost path.

Six, there would be patrolling guards in the valley. If you encountered trouble that you could not resolve, you could ask the guards for help. However, after obtaining the help of the guards, you have to fulfill one of the guards’ wishes.

Seven, not all the guards in the valley were willing to help. Only the headless guards would help. If you encountered the guards with heads, immediately think of a way to avoid them.

Eight, remember not to have any evil thoughts in the valley.

Xiao Shi looked at the information on the stone tablet in front of him. He narrowed his eyes. “Looks like my luck is working!”

The reason why he could encounter such a stone tablet that marked the various taboos in the valley was completely because of his powerful luck. Under normal circumstances, this stone tablet would definitely not appear. Even if this stone tablet appeared, it was impossible for there to be such a detailed list of taboos on it.

This was only because of his powerful luck that he could see such an important message.

“If I can’t see these taboos… then it will really be dangerous!”

Although Xiao Shi did not know what would happen if he violated these taboo matters, most taboos would be violated without knowing in advance. Now that he knew about these taboos, Xiao Shi could dodge to the greatest extent.

However, what puzzled him was among these taboo matters, he did not see any relevant information or clues about imprisoning the members of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect.

From these taboo matters, this did not seem to be a place of imprisonment..
