Chapter 4142: The Hidden Eighth Layer

ely, I need to change it around."After Guan Dongping finished speaking, he returned to his seat.Qin ChuChu glanced at the contract in Ye Bufan's hand and said irritably, "Xiaofan, you're really too im...Dao Shen followed the crowd back to their resting quarters. As powerful beings of their level, they were treated exceptionally well, each receiving a private room.

He went back into the room and closed the door, then vanished from sight in a flash.

Forts are always breached from within. After entering the prison, the guards inside have become much more lax.

Although each layer of the Seven Heavens Prison is guarded by experts comparable to peak Immortal Emperors, under such circumstances with no warning whatsoever, even experts cannot maintain constant vigilance.

According to the guard's memory, Dao Shen was very familiar with this kind of situation. He went down layer by layer without being noticed by anyone.

The first three layers of the seven-tiered heavenly prison held those from the Dragon Clan who were punished by their own kind. These Dao bodies paid them no mind whatsoever.

Soon arriving at the fourth floor, it felt much colder and darker compared to the previous three.

The space was quite large, with about twenty cells in total. Each cell held a powerful being from various races, including humans, the Dark race, and even immortal beasts.

Ye Bufan moved cautiously, dodging the patrolling guards here and there, then slowly searched cell by cell.

The entire four floors were searched, but there was no sign of Little Leaf and the others.

Then came the fifth, sixth, and finally the seventh layer.

The deeper you go, the stronger the criminals imprisoned become. Even a randomly chosen cell here houses powerhouses comparable to Immortal Emperors.

If it's out in the open, it has to be either a powerful tycoon or a prominent figure.

Dao Shen wasn't interested in these things. He kept searching for Xiao Ye and the others, but after searching through all seven layers, he found nothing.

"What's going on Couldn't they have kept him locked up here"

Ye Bufan sat in the room, his mind racing. According to Long Geng's memories, there was no sign of Xiao Ye and the others elsewhere. The most likely place they were being held was within the prison.

"No, keep looking!"

Ye Bufan once again gave the Dao body a command, to search from the seventh layer down to the first, searching the entire prison twice.

But the result was the same, with no sign of Xiao Ye and the others.

"Damn it, where the hell is it hidden"

Ye Bufan, filled with disappointment, was ready to let his form dissipate.

Just then, he suddenly felt a faint fluctuation of the array in the last cell on the seventh floor.

What's going on

The fluctuation of the formation was very weak, it could be said that it was hidden extremely well.

Ye Bufan's heart suddenly skipped a beat. If not for his profound understanding of formations, he wouldn't have noticed it at all.

Turning his head, he saw an empty cell. There was no prisoner inside, which was why he had always overlooked it before.

He disappeared in a flash, slipping into the cell and carefully examining it. He confirmed that there was indeed a hidden formation here, and it was an exceptionally high-level twelfth-order one.

Dragons themselves cannot control formations, but that doesn't prevent them from using formations set up by strong human formation masters.

A formation suddenly appeared in the prison. This was abnormal. Ye Bufan's heart raced. Could it be that Xiaoye and the others were hiding here

Thinking about this, he set another restriction within the prison cell to conceal all sound and aura here. Then, he began to break the formation before him.

The formation in front of me is very high-level and cleverly arranged. If it were an ordinary Twelfth Rank Immortal Array Master, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to crack it for a while.

Fortunately, Ye Bufan obtained the inheritance of ancient medicine and was extremely skilled in formations. He quickly found the eye of the formation and broke it.

The hidden formation dissipated, the scene before them shifted, and a cave opening appeared in the corner of the cell, leading down a flight of stone steps.

Ye Bufan swept his divine sense around, but found no fluctuations of any formations or signs of danger below. He then stepped down.

The stone steps were very long, over a hundred of them, leading down to a massive dungeon.

Coming down, Ye Bufan eagerly looked forward, but he didn't see the shadow of Xiaoye and the others. Instead, he saw a huge fairy beast in the center.

A gigantic single horn sat atop its head, about two meters long, blood red yet crystalline like jade.

Look further down, at the ram's head, wolf's paws, rounded crown, five-colored body, and immense size.

"This... This is a qilin!"

Ye Bufan never imagined that the Dragon Clan's prison wasn't just the seven layers rumored by the outside world, but there was actually an eighth layer. Even Long Geng didn't know about this.

The most crucial thing was that a qilin was imprisoned inside this eighth layer, which completely shattered his perception and overturned his worldview.

I came looking for Xiaoye, but instead I found a bound qilin.

Suppressing the shock in his heart, Ye Bufan began to look around, making sure there was no one watching.

And the qilin before them was bound fast by an invisible energy, this was the Five Elements Locking Dragon Formation!

Ye Bufan immediately recognized the origin of this formation. It was also a twelfth-order immortal formation of the highest rank, mobilizing the power of heaven and earth to form an invisible shackle. Even a twelfth-order immortal monster would be unable to break free.

To make matters worse, besides the formation, there was a chain, as thick as a little finger, on Qilin's body. It emitted dark black light and pierced through its shoulder blades from both sides, binding its limbs and head tightly together.

"This is the mother of Gengjin!"

Ye Bufan was shocked again. This thing was a top-grade refining material, and it was extremely valuable to get even a few kilograms on a normal day.

I never expected to see so many of them here in the Dragon Clan, and they've even been used on this Qilin.

The mother of Gengjin metal is renowned for its solidity. When refining immortal artifacts, even a tiny amount added ensures unbreakable strength.

Although the chains before me were only as thick as a little finger, their solidity was beyond imagination.

The formation and lockchains demonstrate how much the Dragon Clan values this Qilin.

Under these two layers of confinement, the Qilin's aura is extremely weak, and it has long lost the might of a top-tier fairy beast.

With a sense of certainty that there were no traces of Xiaoye and the others here, Ye Bufan's gaze fell once again on the blood-red horn atop the Qilin's head, his heart burning with desire.

Although she didn't rescue her daughter, getting the Qilin horn is definitely a huge gain.

"Who are you"

A deep voice came from the qilin, but under the Five Elements Binding Dragon Formation's constraint, its body couldn't move an inch. Only its blood-red eyes were still able to move.

Although Ye Bufan was still wearing the attire of a guard, this was the hidden eighth layer. Even guards wouldn't normally be able to reach here on a daily basis.

"Qilin Senior, how were you captured by the Dragon Clan and brought here"

He didn't answer, but instead asked another question.

Ye Bufan had no ill will toward the Qilin clan, and with Meiq's relationship, he spoke very politely.

The qilin said: "It seems you are not from the dragon clan."

"That's right, I'm not a member of the dragon clan."

Since the other party was also an enemy of the Dragon Clan, Ye Bufan didn't hide too much. "I'm here to save people. I wonder if senior has seen a little girl, and also a dozen or so women."

The Qilin said, "No, this old man was brought here, besides that despicable Dragon Ao, no one else has come."

Having confirmed there were no news about his daughter, Ye Bufan went straight to the point. "Senior, I can find a way to save you, but on the condition that you give me your kirin horn!"ation.Ding Yue said, "Boss, now that Cheng Yaojin has come out of nowhere, can we still carry out our plan Maybe we should wait a few days and see"Right now, Lu Fangwen wore a gloomy expression and sa...
