Jiang Ming was dazed for a long time.
What the hell was the Black Prison?
Just as he was thinking, Zhu Asi suddenly looked at the monk and shouted coldly, "Monk, tell me honestly, how did you get out of the Black Prison? How were you strong enough to do such a thing? The Black Prison is in chaos right now, but a mere Nascent Soul Realm cultivator like you doesn't have the qualifications to leave. Once you step into the outside world, you should have been killed by the other people in the Black Prison. Don't think that I don't know about the situation and rules of the Black Prison. The people of the Black Prison have always found pleasure in killing their own for a sick sense of pride. In fact, they'd get a title for it!"
Zhu Asi sized up this person.
Jiang Ming was stunned.
A title?
He looked at the other party again. Just as he was about to speak, the monk suddenly reacted.
"A prodigy from the Zhuyan Palace, huh? Interesting. I can't believe you came to such a remote place just to join forces with Ning Caichen. I'm afraid you have ulterior motives."
A cold light flashed in the monk's eyes as he laughed mockingly.
Zhu Asi was not angry. Instead, he nodded seriously and said, "I admit that I have ulterior motives. I want to get Ning Caichen to join the Zhuyan Palace and get the credit for it. But this is not a reason for you to question me."
Zhu Asi approached the monk step by step and said coldly, "You're a person from the Black Prison, yet you know Ning Caichen's name. It seems like someone is ordering you to attack Ning Caichen… I'll give you a piece of advice. Tell me the truth, or don't blame me for being rude!"
Hearing this, the monk pondered for a long time before slowly saying, "I won't string you along… Indeed, someone instructed me to kill Ning Caichen. But I don't know their identity. After all, I'm but a poor person who accepts money to eliminate disasters for others. If you really want to know the truth, why don't you hand Ning Caichen over to me…"
"If you don't use your forbidden power, do you think you can defeat Ning Caichen?"
Zhu Asi sneered. This guy was really something else. He was clearly trapped in a terrible situation, but he was still so arrogant.
Zhu Asi was a cultivator at the peak of the Soul Formation Realm. His battle prowess could match an ordinary early-stage Deity Transformation Realm cultivator. In a sense, he was an expert at the Soul Formation Realm.
However, the other party did not care about all of this at all. He smiled calmly and said, "Mr. Prodigy, I admit you're not weak. In fact, you can even be described as terrifying. However, I come from the Heaven Ruo Temple, and only the people of the Heaven Ruo Temple and the Black Prison can hurt me. If you kill me, you will obtain my nameplate. When that happens, you will definitely attract many fatal disasters… Do you have the ability to block such disasters?"
"What do you think?"
Zhu Asi sneered, and his aura spread out. Instantly, the monk's expression changed drastically as he stared at Zhu Asi in disbelief.
"You're at the peak of the Soul Formation Realm! How is that possible?"
He had always known that Zhu Asi was from the Zhuyan Palace, but he had only thought that Zhu Ah was an ordinary Soul Formation Realm cultivator. After all, it was already amazing to reach the Soul Formation Realm at this age.
However, Zhu Asi's talent was terrifying.
The monk felt despair wash over him.
"I can't be bothered to talk nonsense with you. Tell me the truth now, or I won't mind killing you!"
Zhu Asi spoke again. At this time, Jiang Ming took a step forward and said in a low voice, "Zhu Asi, why don't you bring this monk with you, and we can interrogate him?"
Zhu Asi was startled. He just wanted to provoke and berate the monk. However, Jiang Ming's suggestion was smart.
"You want to use this monk to attract the other experts from the Black Prison, especially the person behind him?"
"That's right. Since the other party can blackmail this monk, it's enough to show that they have some power in the Black Prison. This time, he's definitely not the only person from the Black Prison who came out to kill me. Since we're going to have to fight them, why don't we bring him along? With you and An'an around, why should we be afraid of a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator?"
Jiang Ming spoke with a smile, which startled Zhu Asi.
"What you said is indeed reasonable. With us around, why would we be afraid of this guy? In that case, let's hurry up. Let's not waste time."
"Yes, get ready to fight."
Jiang Ming's expression turned solemn. He knew very well that the battle would begin soon. Powerful auras swept over and descended in an instant.
One after another, divine eagles with powerful auras arrived, quickly suppressing many people in the arena. Those experts from the Qingmiao Kingdom who had been following behind could not breathe.
"They're terrifying!" Jiang Ming muttered to himself.
Zhu Asi nodded in agreement and said, "They might not be the strongest individually, but there are so many of them. It will be difficult for us to deal with them. We have to think of a proper solution."
Zhu Asi's mind was racing. However, he soon realized that the other party seemed to have an endless stream of people. Even if they killed a batch, more would show up!
"How many people do they have?"
Zhu Asi could not help but grit his teeth. He was feeling rather stressed.
Jiang Ming looked around and immediately said, "An'an, prepare to set up the array formation…"
"Let me do it."
Zhu Asi said. He did not plan to fight these people head-on. He wanted to find a more efficient way to deal with them. He immediately began to set up the array formation.
Throughout the entire process, Zhu Asi was also in deep trouble because the other party kept exerting pressure, trying to force Zhu Asi and the others to lower their heads and surrender.
"Don't be ridiculous! We'll never surrender!"
Zhu Asi sneered. With a raise of his hand, the wind grew stronger and immediately swept up waves of dust.
This was the path of array formations!
"He's an array master at the peak of the fifth grade! He's basically at the sixth grade. Once he finishes setting up the array formation, even mid-stage Deity Transformation Realm experts would find it difficult to deal with him!"
Someone shouted. They realized that the situation was extremely bad. At this moment, a powerful force erupted, instantly causing a commotion in the entire arena.
It was deadly silent!
At this moment, Zhu Asi's aura burst out. He wanted to kill all of them at once!
