Chapter 717 - : Bad situation (2/2)

On the tenth day, the black prison suddenly fell into complete silence. No one heard anything, not even Xiao Luo’s nerve-racking screams.

“Master, what’s going on? Could Xiao Luo be… could he be?..”

Gu Qianxue asked anxiously in tears as she held on to Tianshan Elder’s arm, for she was expecting the worst outcome.

“Junior Sister, the situation seems somewhat unusual…”

Both Elder Long and Xiao Quanren frowned, and they looked worried. He had been screaming for days on end, so why did he suddenly stop on the tenth day?

Elder Tianshan did not jump to a conclusion. Instead, she scanned the inside of the prison with her mind. She frowned and said, “That little brat’s vital signs can hardly be detected.”

What?

She shocked everyone when they heard her.

“Master, end the training now, please end it now!” Gu Qianxue pleaded.

Xiao Quanren was also concerned, and he pleaded, “Elder Tianshan, please let Xiao Luo out, we can’t drag it further.”

Tianshan Elder looked at both of them with a complicated look and turned to the pitch-black prison. She was somewhat hesitant to end the training, as there was a chance that all the hardship Xiao Luo had gone through might go to waste if she did so. Xiao Luo might have been undergoing the process of rebirth, which was the most important phase in the training. However, if she did not end the training now and caused Xiao Luo’s death, then what should they do?

“ROAR!”

As Tianshan Elder hesitated, unable to decide, an incredibly beastly roar came from within the Prison of Heaven and Earth. It was loud and piercing, and it shook everyone who heard it.

The tremendous roar shook the very ground they stood on and was very threatening.

Elder Long and Xiao Quanren both looked shocked as a powerful pulse of energy burst from within the prison along with the roar. Along the path the energy pulse traveled, the ground disintegrated, creating terrifying web-like fissures from the base of the prison extending outward.

Everyone unconsciously backed off a dozen meters as they stared at the pitch-black prison in disbelief. It was as if Xiao Luo had transformed into an evil being from hell. The deathly aura emanating from within the prison permeated deep into their souls.

“Junior Sister, what… What is going on?” Elder Long was confused.

Tianshan Elder glared at him and scowled, “You’re asking me? Then, pray tell, who should I ask?”

She then stared wide-eyed at the Prison of Heaven and Earth, the very cacoon she had created to secure Xiao Luo. It was an unprecedented situation, and Xiao Luo’s resilience exceeded her expectation. Had the little brat overcome the barriers of his limits? Why was his aura so beastly, and why was that roar so terrifying like a beast?

Elder Long was lost for words, and seeing that it was her Divine Art of Moulding that created the prison, he assumed she should have the answer.

“Master, is Xiao Luo going to be okay?” Gu Qianxue asked in tears.

“I can’t be sure at this point.”

Tianshan Elder shook her head, then stared at Elder Long and said, “Long, what is the background of this little brat?”

“Junior Sister, didn’t I tell you? He’s from the Xiao Clan.” Elder Long answered.

“What? The Xiao Clan?”

Tianshan Elder’s eyes widened, and she looked terrified. She looked like she had just recalled something terrible, and it seemed like she too had had an unpleasant experience with the Xiao Clan before.
