Chapter 1600: Chapter 1600: Conversation, Black Forest

Ye Feng discovered that the Evil Thought Fruit was rapidly expanding. With a quick thought, he figured it must be because the Ancient Immortal Emperors of the Black Castle were all killed, releasing evil thoughts, which accelerated the fruit’s growth.

Crack!

The Evil Thought Flower in the left castle quickly withered, and then a black fruit emerged, initially only the size of a thumb but gradually growing over time.

"Sect Leader, can this fruit be eaten?"

Hu Feifei’s voice came from the left castle.

"That fruit gathers evil thoughts. If you eat it, you’ll become vicious and ugly. Don’t eat it!"

Ye Feng lied.

He thought Hu Feifei ate too much and wanted to devour anything strange, which wasn’t a good habit, so he had to scare her.

"Oh, disgusting!" Hu Feifei heard that eating the Evil Thought Fruit would make her ugly, so she immediately kept her distance.

"Princess, hurry up. Let’s try to finish exploring these two castles within three days." Ye Feng urged.

"Got it." Hu Feifei responded.

In the black castle on the right side.

Ye Feng walked through this place, first collecting various treasures left by the Ancient Immortal Emperors, some were cultivation insights, some were divine formations, some were powerful cultivation techniques, and also various rare treasures.

"It’s truly a huge harvest."

Ye Feng couldn’t help but smile.

Half a day later.

He had scavenged all the rooms on the ground floor of the right castle, taking everything he could and destroying what he couldn’t carry away, akin to locusts sweeping through.

"Sect Leader, how are you?"

Hu Feifei came running back, finding Ye Feng and intimately hooked his arm.

"Why are you back?"

"I’ve collected everything from the left castle, but there weren’t any special treasures, just cheap stuff."

"Alright then!"

Ye Feng continued scavenging in the right castle and discovered an ancient well, only half a meter wide, with a dark stone monument standing beside it.

"Sect Leader, how come this stone monument has eyes... ah, not just eyes, it even has a nose and mouth, could it be a person?" Hu Feifei was startled.

Ye Feng looked closely.

Indeed, the stone monument’s surface bore a human face, eyes filled with fear, afraid of being smashed by Hu Feifei.

"Spare me, sir!"

The creature within the stone monument saw itself discovered by Ye Feng and Hu Feifei, and quickly pleaded for mercy.

"Who are you?"

Ye Feng and Hu Feifei asked simultaneously.

"I am the Cool Air Immortal Emperor," the creature in the stone monument self-introduced quickly, "I was a Forty-nine Layer Ancient Immortal Emperor, but I offended the other Ancient Immortal Emperors in this castle, so my physical body was destroyed, and my divine soul was sealed in this monument, used as a town jail stone."

Cool Air Immortal Emperor?

What a bizarre name!

Hu Feifei and Ye Feng internally scoffed.

"You offended them and got your body destroyed and soul sealed in the stone monument, so what exactly did you do?"

Ye Feng expressed curiosity.

Cool Air Immortal Emperor showed an awkward expression, "Although I’m a man, I have a special affection for other men, so I often drug them, and eventually... dual cultivated with them."

"Oh my!"

Ye Feng and Hu Feifei were shocked, leaning back tactically, faces full of disdain.

"Sect Leader, surely this guy is no good. Let me smash him with a stick," Hu Feifei swung the Hunyuan Staff, ready to smash the stone monument.

"Empress, spare me!"

Cool Air Immortal Emperor pleaded loudly.

"Wait!" Ye Feng stopped Hu Feifei and questioned Cool Air Immortal Emperor, "Regarding any secrets or information you know about the Black Prison, tell me all immediately, or she will smash you."

"I’ll speak, I’ll say it all!"

Cool Air Immortal Emperor was soft-hearted and directly confessed.

"I’ll first talk about the layout of the Black Prison; it is divided into three regions: the outer layer, middle layer, and core area. The area we are in belongs to the outer layer, suppresses Forty-nine Layer and below Immortal Emperors."

Upon hearing this, Ye Feng and Hu Feifei exchanged glances.

Ye Feng immediately asked, "Do you mean the vast Black Prison only has about a thousand Ancient Immortal Emperors in the outer layer? Isn’t that too few?"

Thirty-four Layer and above Immortal Emperors are immortal.

As long as they don’t court death, they can live indefinitely. With time, the Ancient Immortal Emperors in the universe must number in the thousands, even tens of thousands.

Now, knowing there are only around a thousand in the outer layer, Ye Feng expressed surprise and disbelief.

"Sir, you might have misunderstood." Cool Air Immortal Emperor quickly corrected, "We belong to the outer layer, but this is not the entirety. As far as I know, there are dozens of black castles in the outer layer. As you go further, you’ll find there’s a circular network black brick road connecting other castles in the outer layer."

"I see," Ye Feng understood.

"What about the middle layer and core area?" Hu Feifei asked.

Cool Air Immortal Emperor hurriedly said, "As mentioned earlier, going inside, you’ll see a circular network black brick road; going horizontally, you can reach other areas in the outer layer. If you go further in, you’ll arrive at a vast Black Continent filled with Black Forests."

"That place is the middle layer."

"As I’ve heard, all Fifty-layer and above Immortal Emperors are imprisoned there. And the very center of the Black Continent is the core region, the residence of the Black Prison Demonic Beast’s body, where no one dares venturing."

"The Black Continent also has many black peaks; the soil can be fired into black bricks to build various black castles for imprisoning offenders."

"Sir, that’s all I know."

"Every word is true, I beg for your mercy!"

Cool Air Immortal Emperor grimaced.

"What you said is very interesting to me. To show my gratitude, Princess, set him free!"

Ye Feng said indifferently.

"Got it!" Hu Feifei nodded.

"Thank you, sir." Hearing he was to be set free, Cool Air Immortal Emperor was delighted.

Then, the next moment.

Hu Feifei swung the Hunyuan Staff, forcefully shattering the stone monument, causing Cool Air Immortal Emperor’s divine soul to collapse, demise on the spot, and unable to be reborn.

"Hey, aren’t you free now?"

Ye Feng snickered, then took a deep breath, refining Cool Air Immortal Emperor’s Origin into the Power of the World, infusing it into the small universe, strengthening it more.

"Sect Leader, what shall we do next?"

Hu Feifei hooked Ye Feng’s arm again.

"Go to the Black Forest," Ye Feng stated.

"Not going to other areas in the outer layer?" Hu Feifei raised an eyebrow, thinking Ye Feng was going to take her to other black castles to slaughter.

"Other black castles in the outer layer are too far; spending too much time. We need to speed up and unearth the secrets we need to explore, before eliminating the Ancient Immortal Emperors."

Ye Feng explained.

"Alright!" Hu Feifei could only nod.

At this time, the Evil Thought Fruits atop the two black castles matured, emitting a strong fragrance.

"Roar!"

The avatar of the Black Prison Demonic Beast immediately awakened, grabbed the mature Evil Thought Fruit, and walked to the depths of the Black Prison, completely ignoring Ye Feng and Hu Feifei.

"Let’s go too!"

Ye Feng took out the Black Compass, opened the northern door of the black castle, and stepped onto the Black Brick Road with Hu Feifei, running at the fastest speed.

Half a day later.

They reached a crossroads.

"Sect Leader, which way?" Hu Feifei asked.

"Based on Cool Air Immortal Emperor’s explanation, going straight leads to the Black Continent of the middle layer, turning left or right gets you onto a ring road, guiding to other castles in the outer layer. Hence, we should proceed straight."

The two continued forward.

Half a day later.

Ye Feng and Hu Feifei discovered a faint mist ahead, passing through it, they finally arrived at the border of an endless Black Continent, covered with numerous lush black trees.

At first glance, they resembled cedars.

And this is the middle layer region of the Black Prison.

Ye Feng looked far into the distance.

The very center of the Black Continent was a towering mountain peak, unknown how tens of miles high, resembling a huge cone standing there, the top unseen.

That is the core area.

Also the dwelling of the Black Prison Demonic Beast’s body.
