"Lord of Hell!?"

Zhou Dao stared at King Lu Hai, the Chief Prison Officer of Longhu Mountain Demon Locking Prison, with wide eyes, unable to conceal his horror.

How is this possible?

The chief prison officer of the Demon Locking Prison is the Lord of the Black Prison!?

This is really unbelievable.

"Senior...are you kidding?" Zhou Dao asked suspiciously.

"Hahaha... what kind of joke is this?" Lu Haiwang laughed.

"Are you really the senior from Black Prison!?" Zhou Dao asked tentatively.

"It's... it's not..." King Lu Hai gave an ambiguous answer.

"What kind of answer is this!?" Zhou Dao couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"The Black Prison King... Before I became the Chief Prison Officer of the Locked Demon Prison, he was him and I was me... When I inherited this great position, we have the same origin as each other, just like one body..."

The smile on King Lu Hai's face gradually faded, and he revealed a shocking secret.

"What do you mean!?" Zhou Dao's heart trembled violently, and he vaguely felt that what King Lu Hai said was a top secret in the world.

"You come with me."

King Lu Hai turned around and walked towards the depths of the Black Stone Hall.

Zhou Dao hesitated for a moment, then took steps to follow.

The two of them continued to circle downwards along the stairs. Zhou Dao leaned over and looked at it. This spiral staircase seemed to lead to the netherworld, with no end in sight.

The Demon Locking Prison was originally located in the underground abyss, but now there is such a secret underground palace hidden under the Black Stone Hall.

This made Zhou Dao suspicious.

"Senior, where are you going?" Zhou Dao couldn't help but ask.

"This is a forbidden area of ​​the Demon Lock Prison. Throughout the ages, only the Chief Prison Officer has the qualification to enter..."

As he spoke, King Lu Hai paused slightly: "Since Longhu Mountain established the sect, only the founder has been here. From then on, no outsider can set foot in this forbidden area!"

"So mysterious!?"

Zhou Dao's heart skipped a beat, and he had a faint intention of retreating.

He didn't think King Lu Hai had taken a fancy to him by bringing him here. Think about it, if even the headmaster of Longhu Mountain was not qualified to come, it would be a good thing for him to come in and visit.

Zhou Dao doesn't believe that pie will fall from the sky for no reason.

The old drunkard warned him repeatedly when he was a child that what falls from the sky may not be pie, but may be bird droppings. Don't open your mouth to catch it in the first place.

"Senior, in such an important place, I think..." Zhou Dao backed down.

"There is a place like this in the Black Prison." King Lu Hai interrupted Zhou Dao's words.

"Um!?"

Zhou Dao's doubts became more intense. He looked at the almost endless place below. There was no light in the vast darkness.

A strange wave quietly emerged, which was exactly the same as what he had felt in the black prison.

"Senior...Has Qin Taizu been here?" Zhou Dao suddenly asked.

He remembered that the Lord of Black Prison mentioned that Great Qin Taizu once visited Black Prison in person and left behind a blue star magic weapon.

"Been here." King Lu Hai didn't even look back, his calm voice without any ripples.

"Three thousand years ago, Taizu founded the country and ruled the world. At that time, the Taoist sect respected Jiu, and when facing that man, he could only proclaim himself a minister and congratulate him."

Three thousand years ago, Dao Sect still had nine sects standing side by side. Later, the three sects of Changsheng, Taiyi and Panhuang were executed by the imperial court one after another, and the world was shocked.

From that time on, the Six Great Sects kept away from the outside world and formed an extremely delicate balance.

"The Taizu of the Great Qin Dynasty is extremely mysterious. His rise is like the gathering of thousands of stars, and the light from all the heavens is concentrated on him. How many years and years of luck can create such a person?"

King Lu Hai couldn't help but sigh, full of fascination for this legend from three thousand years ago.

"The Taizu of the Great Qin Dynasty is the only person besides the Patriarch of Longhu Mountain and the Chief Prison Officers of all dynasties who has ever been to this forbidden area."

"Did he say something?" Zhou Dao couldn't help but ask.

"He only said four words."

"Which four words?"

"As expected."

"Huh!?" Zhou Dao frowned slightly, showing doubt.

"We're here!"

Deep in the underground palace, a ball of fire glowed dimly, bringing a little light into the heavy and silent space.

At this moment, Zhou Daofang saw clearly...no...perceived that there was actually a copper pillar standing in front of him. It had a strange shape and was engraved with unidentifiable runes. It was ancient and mottled, and it was unknown how many years it had gone through.

The most eye-catching thing about this copper pillar is that there is a symbol representing a number engraved on the top.

"five!?"

"Do you still remember the legend I told you before?" King Lu Hai said in a deep voice.

"There was once a cage in heaven and earth!?" Zhou Dao blurted out.

King Lu Hai looked up at the huge copper pillar in front of him and nodded.

Before the rise of Taoism, there was a huge cage between heaven and earth. Later, when disaster struck, the cage fell apart and was scattered throughout the world, hiding deep in the abyss.

"This is not a legend..."

"The Black Prison is part of it, and the Demon Locking Prison is also part of it..."

King Lu Hai's voice echoed in the quiet underground palace.

"Although that huge cage is broken, the power it contains is extremely strange. They are like one body..."

"When we become the masters of Scattered Prison, we will be nourished by this power. Our strength will undergo earth-shaking changes. At the same time, we can also sense each other..."

"Fusion?" Zhou Dao's heart moved, and Ye Kong and Chu Shen appeared in his mind.

They are one body and two bodies, with the same heart and the same origin.

"It's not fusion... we still maintain our independent consciousness and thoughts, but..." King Lu Hai thought about the words.

"Unified by that force... I can be me or him..."

"So...actually the Black Prison does not belong to the Great Qin Dynasty, and the Demon Locking Prison does not belong to Longhu Mountain...the only thing you recognize is the power of that cage!?" A hint of understanding flashed in Zhou Dao's eyes.

"You can also say that."

"No wonder..." Zhou Dao thought thoughtfully.

No wonder he felt that this place was very similar to the Black Prison when he first entered the Demon Lock Prison. It made sense that King Lu Hai could see through his identity.

From the first day Zhou Dao entered Longhu Mountain, he was taken aback.

"Senior, what is this and the copper pillar?"

"This and the copper pillars come from that prison, and they also represent the identity of this prison..."

"five!?"

"According to our induction, the prison is divided into nine parts. The Demon Locking Prison is the fifth ultimate prison..."

"The black prison is the third hell."

"This copper pillar is the key to controlling the prison... The biggest task of the prison masters in the past is to select the next prison master..."

Having said this, King Lu Hai looked at Zhou Dao, his eyes becoming extremely hot.

Obviously, he is the person chosen by King Lu Hai.

No wonder the Lord of Black Prison and King Lu Hai looked at Zhou Dao like a weasel meeting an old hen.

The world is so big, how many people are there who are truly qualified to inherit the ultimate prison!?

"The Black Prison's failure to keep you here shows that you are destined to be in my Demon Locked Prison."

"fart!"

Suddenly, a fierce roar came from King Lu Hai's body.

Zhou Dao was startled when he heard this, it sounded very familiar.

"Black Prison, you have crossed the line." King Lu Hai snorted coldly, and the voice seemed to disappear.

Although the prison masters are from the same origin, they are independent individuals, and their descendants are also different.

If Zhou Dao chooses to lock the demon prison, the Lord of the Black Prison will have to choose another successor.

But where can one find a perfect heir like Zhou Dao?

"Zhou Dao, this Demon Locking Prison should be yours..."
