CHAPTER 221: CHAPTER 116 SAINTESS DECREE WITH ABUNDANT REWARDS, MYSTERIOUS PRISON_3

Initially, Lin Xuankong thought that these were just plain, sturdy Profound Iron Cages. But upon closer inspection, he realized that it seemed to be a Profound Iron Cage with a small Array inscribed on it. No wonder it could easily control the Tier Five Corpse Scorpion inside and prevent it from easily releasing poison and Demon Qi!

Beside him, Zheng Yunrui also noticed something unusual. She leaned over for a closer look and exclaimed softly, "It’s the legendary Demon Capturing Array from the Rakshasa Kingdom, which can suppress all creatures carrying Demon Qi! The Black Tiger Gang actually possesses such a wondrous object? Just this Profound Iron Cage inscribed with a Profound Mysterious Array is more valuable than the famous Black Soul Wondrous Jade from the Great Marsh—even several times more valuable!"

In the distance, Liy Ruoqing and Liy Ruo Ying, who were trapped by the Black Soul Wondrous Jade, felt a mix of emotions upon hearing this. That Demon Prison Cage was indeed a treasure, but alas, it no longer belonged to them!

At this moment, they couldn’t help but feel a bit disappointed seeing Lin Xuankong neither opening the cage nor touching the Tier Five Corpse Scorpion. Just then, as their disappointment peaked, their eyes suddenly lit up. Lin Xuankong had actually opened the cage door, reached in, and was now touching the Tier Five Corpse Scorpion!

The two exchanged glances, joy evident in their eyes. Meanwhile, Lin Xuankong activated the Blood-Burning Secret Technique and the Shadow Concealment Primordial Technique, firmly grasping the Corpse Scorpion’s tail and body before pulling it out.

The Corpse Scorpion was not known for its physical strength. Despite its constant wriggling, it was unable to escape Lin Xuankong’s grip. However, as soon as it left the cage, it began releasing Demon Qi and poison!

Zheng Yunrui’s face turned pale, and she quickly retreated more than ten steps. Lin Xuankong, however, felt the invasion of poison and his expression merely shifted slightly. With an eager look, he took a deep breath, inhaling all the Demon Poison released by the Tier Five Corpse Scorpion into his lungs.

It felt cool and slightly sweet, with a hint of spicy fragrance. It was also slightly fetid, but the odor, mingled with the fragrance, wasn’t very noticeable—somewhat like the taste of fried stinky tofu after being frozen.

Lin Xuankong savored it carefully for a moment, then placed the Corpse Scorpion back into the cage and closed the door tightly. Zheng Yunrui, witnessing this, was already so shocked her mouth hung wide open.

"Mumu, Brother Mu, are you okay? You just took a deep breath of the Demon Poison?" Was he trying to get more thoroughly poisoned, more quickly poisoned, and die faster?

Lin Xuankong frowned slightly and said seriously, "This Corpse Scorpion Demon Poison is indeed unique, but the taste isn’t as good as I imagined!"

The taste isn’t as good as imagined? Zheng Yunrui, her hair tied in neat buns, was utterly bewildered.

Liy Ruoqing stared, his mouth agape. Liy Ruo Ying was equally stunned.

At this time, Lin Xuankong walked straight to Liy Ruoqing and Liy Ruo Ying. PUFF! He blew a large cloud of the Demon Poison he had inhaled from his lungs directly onto their faces.

Instantly, their expressions changed drastically. Then, their faces indeed turned a deathly, purplish-black shade.

The two, their faces now a ghastly color, felt their Cultivation levels rapidly declining. In mere moments, they dropped from the Late Stage of the Fifth Layer to the Mid-grade Fifth Layer, then to the Early Stage of the Fifth Layer, the Perfection of the Fourth Layer, and the Late Stage of the Fourth Layer. After just a few breaths, that single exhalation of Demon Poison had caused their Cultivation levels to plummet to the Early Stage of the Third Layer!

Lin Xuankong stood by their side, observing their changes carefully with his Celestial Eye. Only when their Cultivation fell to the Early Stage of the Third Layer did he nod slightly. With such feeble Cultivation levels, any petty schemes they might harbor wouldn’t be able to affect him. This was truly foolproof!

Soon after, the shadows binding them suddenly disappeared. Lin Xuankong spoke, "Alright, now we can set off for the Secret Realm Center. We’ll proceed slowly, collecting some Heavy Water Spiritual Objects along the way. Of course, right now I’m most interested in the Liy Family’s Array Formation Method and the method of refining this Demon Prison Cage. Liy Ruoqing, you can start explaining now."

Engraving an Array on a Profound Iron Cage could indeed achieve miraculous effects, capable of trapping a Tier Five Demon. This Demon Capturing Array is truly extraordinary! If I could master it, my combat power would definitely increase significantly. The only question is whether this Array can affect even stronger Demons. If it can... A strong look of anticipation appeared in Lin Xuankong’s eyes.
