Chapter 84

Qin Yun also sensed the scene within the dungeon . His gaze turned colder .

Inside the dungeon, Qin An was tied to a wooden frame . Beside him was a charcoal stove and the charcoal inside it was burning red with flames billowing out of it . A metal rod was being heated inside the stove and two prison wardens sitting beside him were mumbling under their breaths, “Young Master Qin An, don’t you blame us . It was ordered by Lord County Governor . We have to let you enjoy this once a day . If we disobey the order, the ones enjoying this would be the both of us . “

“Don’t worry, no matter how severe the punishment, you will not die! We will ensure that you do not die . If you were to die, we would be in great trouble as well . “

One of the prison wardens glanced at the charcoal stove . “It will be ready in a short while . According to the rules, we have to brand you five times . Hey, Old Fu, is the salt prepared?”

“Wait a moment . Someone is getting it . ” A prison warden shouted from afar .

“First, you will be branded before some salt will be sprinkled . Young Master Qin An, you must have never experienced this before . I guarantee you that you will never forget it for life . ” A prison warden said with a chuckle . “Don’t worry, we are experienced . You will definitely not die . “

Qin An gritted his teeth as his body could not help but tremble .

It was instinctive . He was unable to control the trembling even if he tried .

“Dong!”

Beneath the dungeon, there was a quiver . It was very weak, something undetectable to ordinary people .

In fact, buried deep underground was a bronze column . There were complicated runes engraved on the column and at that moment, a flying sword had tunneled underground . It stabbed through the bronze column with a bang, destroying the runes on the column! The Six Fans Gate dungeon’s array formation was especially used to prevent cultivators from succeeding in a prison break! Once the array was triggered, ordinary cultivators would not be able to escape .

Ordinary cultivators were unable to release their psyche nor would they be able to find the array core deep underground .

However, Qin Yun could instantly crack it .

“Oh no!”

“Be careful, there’s a prison break!”

There were alarmed shouts from outside the dungeon! Despite the shouts, they were obstructed by the Heaven and Earth powers . The sound could not reach the dungeon!

Following that, Qin Yun walked straight into the dungeon . He walked past the prison wardens who could not see him at all .

“There will be constables rushing in very soon . I have to bring Brother away as soon as possible . However… Did Gongye Bin really not lay a trap?” Qin Yun felt baffled . Everything was going too smoothly .

Under the cover of invisibility, he walked through the dungeon .

In a few steps, he came beside his brother .

“Phuah!”

A sword beam flashed .

Qin An was watching the metal rod in the charcoal stove turning red . A prison warden was also walking over with a plate filled with salt! At that moment, Qin An could not help but grit his teeth . “Bear with it! Bear with it! It won’t result in death . I won’t die . “

Suddenly, he felt the binding on his wrists loosen . The pressure on his ankles relaxed and clanging sounds were heard! The shackles that restrained him fell to the ground in pieces . The cuffs about his ankles had shattered .

Qin An retracted his arms in a daze .

“This…” The two prison wardens sitting by the side were dumbfounded . They watched in horror at the chains and cuffs shattering . What had broken the shackles and cuffs? They had failed to see it clearly . All they saw was a hazy stream of light .

“Prison break—”

One of the fat prison wardens widened his eyes and shouted . The other prison wardens were also alarmed . Many imprisoned criminals looked over curiously . Following that, they felt the surrounding air solidify . A formless energy enveloped them, as well as the prison wardens around them .

“Out . “

With an ethereal cry, all the prison wardens flew up and were thrown far away .

Woosh! Woosh! Woosh!

The criminals looked in astonishment at Qin An, who was tied to a wooden frame . A gray-clothed man had appeared out of thin air .

At the moment Qin Yun appeared, he extended his hand to grab Qin Yun’s wrist . “Brother, I’ll be taking you away . Be careful . There might be danger around here . “

Qin An looked at the figure in front of him and was astonished and puzzled . “Brother?” Despite hearing his brother’s voice, for some reason, he could not remember the looks of the person in front of him . Qin An even began to suspect if he had turned extremely old and frail . He was like an elder in his eighties or nineties, unable to remember a thing . However, he could recall things very clearly except the looks of the person in front of him .

How could Qin An be able to crack the Divine Concealment Spell?

Qin Yun naturally did not want to leave behind any evidence while breaking his brother out of jail . He constantly maintained Divine Concealment Spell to prevent others from recognizing him .

“Prison break!”

“There’s a prison break!”

“Save us!”

“Is that Second Young Master Qin?” The criminals that were remanded shouted excitedly .

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Five inconspicuous wooden columns in the dungeon exploded one after another . Five men appeared, each of them was covered with a thick wooden shell . Furthermore, they grew a lot of leaf veins . There was a thick wood-elemental spiritual energy emanating the entire dungeon . Instantly, the scene turned illusionary and became a hazy green world . The green world’s roots were the five men with countless veins rapidly binding against each other .

The veins tore through the bodies of some of the criminals who were in the range of the array formation . They died with their eyes open . Others were bound and they suffocated to their deaths . In a blink of an eye, dozens of criminals died . Instantly, the surroundings were filled with the smell of blood . It was the fresh blood of the dead criminals . When the veins were stained with blood, they appeared even more menacing .

“This is?” Qin Yun grabbed Qin An’s hand and solemnly observed his surroundings . “What a strange array formation . My psyche is unable to penetrate it . Although I have Heaven Man Unity, I can only barely sense that the Heaven and Earth powers contained within the array formation are extremely complicated in its flow . But I do not know anything about array formations . “

Qin An panicked as he looked at the countless leaves and veins around him .

“What brotherly love! Lord County Governor was right after all . You really came to save your brother . ” The quintet stared at Qin Yun and was feeling excited . They were unaffected by the Divine Concealment Spell and could see Qin Yun’s looks clearly .

“The Liu brothers?” Qin Yun said with a deep voice . “So it’s you . “

“It appears you are rather powerful . Heaven Man Unity? As a Postnatal cultivator, you are able to defeat an ordinary person at the Connate False Core realm . ” Eldest Liu scoffed .

Third Liu chuckled and said, “The five of us could match the Connate False Core before we become followers of the lord . With this formation, our strength is even more formidable!”

“You will definitely die today . ” Fourth Liu said .

“All of you are infamous, being on the kill lists of more than one cultivator . By submitting to Gongye Bing, you enjoy a sense of stability while donning the facade of being officials . ” Qin Yun quipped .

“Brothers, cut the crap with him . Kill!” Fifth Liu said .

“Kill!”

“Kill!”

The Liu brothers attacked together . Instantly, countless veins flew toward Qin Yun and Qin An . Qin An’s face was drained of its color .

“Break . ” Qin Yun controlled his Intrinsic Flying Sword .

The Intrinsic Flying Sword instantly whistled out, severing the incoming veins . A large number of veins were constantly being slashed apart! Due to the large number, Qin Yun could only manage to reduce a small portion of the surrounding veins . However, they continued growing after being sliced off! New veins would spread towards them in great number . Qin Yun felt that as the entire array formation stirred, the wood-elemental aura was constantly condensing and producing new veins .

“Cut, cut it all . ” Qin Yun controlled with all his might . He even intended to kill the Liu brothers .

However, the closer it was to the Liu brothers, the thicker the veins became . It also became more difficult to slice through the veins! Just one Intrinsic Flying Sword could only barely create a three-foot radius defense .

“I have to use my sword intent! If not, there’s no way I can break this formation . ” Qin Yun thought to himself . “However, the moment I use my sword intent, I have to kill all the Liu brothers . I cannot expose my sword intent . “

By using sword intent, his strength would increase to the Connate True Core realm!

For a Postnatal sword immortal to possess such strength meant only one possibility—grasping sword intent! He could not afford to expose it at all . The outcome would be many times worse than the threat the county governor posed . All the great fiendish demons would hunt him down .

“Haha… You can’t crack this formation . You are doomed . Let me tell you! This is the Five Revolutions Mystic Wood Formation! You should be gladdened that you are being killed by this formation!” The Liu brothers were frenzied .

“Misty Rain Sword Intent!”

Qin Yun’s eyes flashed as he immediately conjured his Misty Rain Sword Intent .
