Chapter 2252: Great Saint Chen (Second Update)

The entrance to the dungeon.

Everywhere you look is damp and dark, reeking with a foul stench.

Moreover.

On the bluestone path, on the walls, on the mountain walls, you can see wriggling black bugs.

They look extremely horrifying!

“Senior Sister… here…”

Zhu Xiaoqi looked at the scene at the dungeon entrance, his legs gave way, his face pale, eyes filled with endless terror.

The young man captured along with them was also trembling.

In his eyes of despair, waves of fear began to spread!

He also looked at Senior Sister Zhang Yun’ai, opening his mouth to say something.

But, as his mouth opened, he seemed too scared to utter a word.

From his throat.

Only uh-uh sounds came out, showing extreme panic.

“Steady!”

Zhang Yun’ai suddenly turned her head, sternly commanding the two, “In the Demon Bone Tower, no one fears death! Since we can’t even commit suicide, is there anything more desperate? If we die, we must die with dignity, we can’t beg or yield, otherwise, death would be even more humiliating!”

These words made the two close their mouths at once.

Zhu Xiaoqi and the young man were both very scared but lowered their heads, enduring it.

In the Demon Bone Tower, as the senior sister, Zhang Yun’ai still held some intimidation!

The junior brothers and sisters below had always believed in Zhang Yun’ai’s words without a doubt!

Even in death, die with dignity!

Zhu Xiaoqi and the young man both silently recited these words.

“That’s more like it! You guys have been noisy enough on the way here! Now that we’re here, it’s best to save some energy!”

Chu Zhiping gave a cold smile to Zhang Yun’ai and the other two, saying, “After spending a few days here, you’ll find out how beautiful things used to be! Even becoming a living corpse! Once you accept your fate, no matter how painful or scary, it’s no big deal! Save your strength, and you can endure a bit more pain!”

Upon hearing this, Zhu Xiaoqi and the young man felt an even colder chill rising.

“Go!”

Zhang Yun’ai looked at the front of the foul-smelling dungeon entrance, scolded the two, and was the first to stride in.

If you can’t resist, can’t even die, then just bravely endure!

The two tremblingly followed behind.

Lin Tian was also curious about the situation in the dungeon. As his divine sense extended inside, he stepped in along with Chu Zhiping.

Dark, damp, foul, and filled with thick corpse qi.

Living in such conditions was worse than death!

The only upside was that it was spacious here, with a few dimly lit kerosene lamps around!

This was a dungeon carved out between the mountain walls and the canyon.

A long corridor ran down the middle, with rows of iron cells on either side.

Inside the iron cells, you could see lifeless people, both men and women, with dull eyes.

Deeper in, a crossroads appeared with two more rows of iron cells, almost all occupied!

If.

It was merely confinement.

Then it’s not much different from an ordinary prison.

Just more foul and dim.

But inside the iron cells, there was a layer of corpse water!

The iron cells were much lower than the corridor.

At least three feet of corpse water was accumulated inside, exuding a foul stench and corpse qi!

The detained people were all soaked inside.

However, this corpse water had no corrosive effect; Lin Tian discovered that it slowly seeped into the bodies of the captives.

In here.

Almost all were cultivators.

Ordinary people were just a minority.

When Lin Tian and the others entered, the detained people didn’t even look up, each of them crumpled against the wall, barely breathing.

Lin Tian followed Chu Zhiping as they led Zhang Yun’ai and the other two inside.

Soon they were met by a few cultivators dressed in Corpse Valley attire.

The leader was a chubby man with fat ears, with small eyes gleaming with cold light.

“Oh… Chu Zhiping, Hu Da, you’re the ones delivering them!”

Upon seeing Lin Tian and the others, the chubby man’s eyes lit up, and he exclaimed excitedly, “What good materials have you brought back?”

As he spoke.

He couldn’t help but size up Zhang Yun’ai and the other two.

When he noticed their attire, his face turned surprised, “Disciples of the Demon Bone Tower?”

“Hehe, Boss Chen!”

Chu Zhiping hurriedly laughed, greeting the chubby fellow.

Boss Chen?

Lin Tian searched his memory and immediately recognized the man.

This person was Chen Shan, the head of the Cold Corpse Valley dungeon!

To put it bluntly, he was the one in charge here, with considerable power!

In Cold Corpse Valley, many cultivators referred to Chen Shan as the Great Saint Chen!

Chen Shan greatly enjoyed and was extremely satisfied with this title!

He carried a lofty pride, though he committed all sorts of evil, he wished to be unique, not wanting to follow the crowd, or rather, he wanted to stand out!

For example.

Sometimes, when capturing cultivators, if some talked cleverly or offered treasures.

If he benefited, he’d happily release them!

At the same time.

He instructed those people to call him the Great Saint Chen!

Over time, this title spread!

In public, he was respectfully called Boss Chen, but in private discussions, he was referred to as the Great Saint Chen!

To this.

Chen Shan was extremely satisfied, feeling quite pleased!

In this cannibalistic Cold Corpse Valley, being recognized as the Great Saint Chen was a great honor!

Sounds different with that title!

But.

Title is one thing, but when Chen Shan turns ruthless, besides the Valley Master and many Elders, everyone feared him!

Given that he was a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, no one dared cross him!

Lin Tian paused briefly and nodded to Chen Shan, “Boss Chen!”

Meanwhile.

His divine sense had already enveloped the entire dungeon.

And in the deepest part of the dungeon, within an iron cell, Lin Tian finally found who he was looking for!

Yan Cheng and students from several camps were held in the same area of the iron cell.

Besides Yan Cheng, there were three men and two women, almost all his students!

It relieved Lin Tian greatly to find.

Aside from being relatively weak, Yan Cheng and the others were not in life-threatening danger!

“Boss Chen, she’s Zhang Yun’ai, the senior sister of the Demon Bone Tower!”

Chu Zhiping stepped up, making suggestive gestures.

Hearing this, Chen Shan’s face showed surprise, “Zhang Yun’ai? Senior Sister of the Demon Bone Tower, heard of her talents years ago! Tsk tsk… her cultivation is stronger now, becoming Mr. Shentu’s Corpse Refining Furnace would be wonderful!”

At this moment, Chen Shan’s gaze at Zhang Yun’ai completely changed, turning fervent.

He turned to Chu Zhiping and said, “Almost forgot, Mr. Shentu instructed earlier if someone returns, go see him! How’s the news over there?”

“Boss Chen, people from the Demon Bone Tower found it too, so there was a clash, and we captured three! Everything’s going smooth, just waiting for Mr. Shentu and the Great Elder to go over!”

Chu Zhiping nodded and replied, “I’m going to meet Mr. Shentu now!”

“Quick go! With the Great Elder accompanying, even if the Demon Bone Tower’s formidable ones come, it’s nothing to fear!”

Chen Shan nodded with satisfaction, “Remember to tell Mr. Shentu, there’s a top-grade waiting for him here! By then, your contribution won’t go unnoticed. Mr. Shentu’s reward will be generous!”

Chu Zhiping was overjoyed, hurriedly instructing Lin Tian to cooperate well with Chen Shan, and then cheerfully left the dungeon.
