Li Qiye didn't pay much attention to Honghuang Mountain or the lake behind Honghuang Mountain. He just stared at the huge cave in the distance, which was the Honghuang Heavenly Prison.

Looking at the Great Desolate Heavenly Prison, Li Qiye couldn't help showing a thick smile, and said with a faint smile: "The Great Desolate Heavenly Prison, it seems that the Emperor Taiqing once coveted it, but unfortunately, he was unable to find out the mystery inside it. .”

Prehistoric Heavenly Prison, in fact, many people in the Nine Secrets Tract know this name when it comes to it. Many people in the Nine Secrets Tradition know that the Great Desolate Heavenly Prison is not because of the Great Desolate Heavenly Prison itself, but because of the Taiqing Emperor.

Although no one knows why it is called the Heavenly Prison, there are rumors that in very ancient times, certain beings were imprisoned in the Prehistoric Heavenly Prison, and there were once extremely powerful beings imprisoned in it.

It is precisely because of this that people who are thrown into the ancient prison will never be able to get out, and they can only be imprisoned in it forever.

Even a long time ago, there were rumors that the Primordial Heavenly Prison was once used by the founder of the Nine Secrets Dao Lineage to imprison some of the most vicious people in the Imperial Lineage. The Nine Secrets Dao Lineage also used it to imprison some people for a long time.

But later on, no one was imprisoned in the Primordial Prison anymore. The reason is very simple. If you can imprison a ferocious person or an enemy into the Great Prison, it means that he is completely defenseless and can be slaughtered by you. Such a person can completely kill him. .

Moreover, once locked up in the Ancient Prison, you can never come out again, and it is impossible for anyone to go in to visit the prison. Being locked up in the Ancient Prison means death, which is no different from killing him.

If this is the case, why spend so much effort imprisoning the most dangerous person or one's own enemy? Just kill him directly.

However, for some unknown reason, after Emperor Taiqing took control of the power of the Nine Secrets, when he truly reached his peak and became the most powerful person in the world, he actually started to imprison some enemies in the Ancient Heavenly Prison.

For a long time, Emperor Taiqing imprisoned some of his enemies in the Great Desolate Heavenly Prison, and those who could be imprisoned in the Great Desolate Heavenly Prison were the most powerful enemies of Emperor Taiqing. Some were even more powerful than Emperor Taiqing. Be strong!

Everyone does not understand why the Taiqing Emperor imprisoned these enemies in the Ancient Prison, because he could have killed his enemies, but he spent countless efforts to capture the enemies alive and then imprisoned them in the Ancient Prison.

There are also some ancestors who are secretly guessing that the Taiqing Emperor imprisoned some enemies in the Great Desolate Heavenly Prison, not to interrogate his enemies, but as a kind of test. Maybe there is something he wants in the Great Desolate Heavenly Prison. s things.

In fact, some sages and true emperors in the Nine Secrets Tradition have speculated that in the ancient times, whether it was the founder of the Nine Secrets or other ancient ancestors, they were not the ones who used the Great Desolate Heavenly Prison to imprison enemies or dangerous people. It is really to imprison a certain person, or to be more precise, to use these people for experiments. These imprisoned people are just the subjects of the experiment.

Therefore, some people have always speculated that there is something in the ancient prison, something that even the ancestor of the Nine Secrets wants to get, but it is just that the ancestor of the Nine Secrets has not been able to get it.

"Others can't harvest it, so I'll do it." Li Qiye looked at the Great Desolate Heavenly Prison, smiled, and then turned around and entered the stone palace.

In this way, Li Qiye lived in Honghuang Mountain. Although Li Qiye was a guest of Jiulian Mountain, there was no disciple in Jiulian Mountain to serve him.

In fact, no matter who comes to Jiulian Mountain, whether it is a guest or enlightenment, Jiulian Mountain will not wait on him. Even if the Emperor Taiqing comes to Jiulian Mountain in person, Jiulian Mountain will also have no disciples to wait on him. The most a mountain can do is make a registration.

As for the rest, just do whatever you want. Therefore, if Emperor Taiqing wanted to live in Jiulian Mountain for a period of time to enlighten himself, he would have to bring his own servants. Jiulian Mountain would not send any disciples to serve him.

This was not just the fact that Emperor Taiqing did not receive such treatment. Before this, even if the stunning Emperor Zheng came to Jiulian Mountain, Jiulian Mountain did not send a single disciple to serve him.

This has always been the case in Jiulian Mountain, and this is also the most unique place in Jiulian Mountain.

Despite this, no one has always been angry because of this. In fact, for millions of years, there are not many people who really dare to run wild and wanton in Jiulian Mountain, even if it is the invincible true emperor. When I went to Jiulian Mountain, I seemed a bit low-key and didn't dare to act recklessly.

After settling down in Honghuang Mountain, Li Qiye didn't care whether anyone was waiting on him. For him, even sleeping in the open air was nothing.

After staying in Honghuang Mountain, Li Qiye did not immediately go to test Honghuang Heavenly Prison. Instead, he ate clouds every day to gain enlightenment, and every day when the sun rose, he sat on the mountain peak, facing Honghuang Heavenly Prison, and meditated. Entering concentration, the mind wanders too empty.

Of course, when Li Qiye meditated there, no divine light emerged, and no auspiciousness descended, just like ordinary people meditating, there was no difference.

In Li Qiye's Life Palace, the Taichu Tree emerged, and the pine cone and acorn fruits were full and ripe, as if they would ripen and fall at any time.

At this time, the third avenue flower bloomed on the Taichu tree. This avenue flower flashed with golden light, and the entire avenue flower seemed to be made of gold, very pure.

The third avenue flower bloomed, filling the air with Taichu, and the entire Taichu tree seemed to be reborn.

In fact, the Third Avenue Flower and the Taichu Tree need more massive power to support, otherwise it will not be able to thrive. Of course, Li Qiye can still support it with such power.

The Taichu Tree requires a massive amount of power to support, but it also brings the vast and endless Taichu Qi to Li Qiye, allowing Li Qiye to refine this vast and endless Taichu Qi into his own, and every ray of Taichu Qi is integrated into it. He entered Li Qiye's flesh and blood, making Li Qiye's flesh and blood different and more powerful.

Li Qiye went to the mountain peak every day to achieve meditation and enlightenment. It was very quiet and no one disturbed him. It seemed that the whole world was so peaceful.

After all, Honghuang Mountain is the southernmost point of Jiulian Mountain and the most remote place in the entire Jiulian Mountain. Few people have set foot here. Of course, no one came to disturb Li Qiye.

However, Li Qiye was not the only one who meditated in front of the Great Desolate Heavenly Prison to attain enlightenment. Besides Li Qiye, there was another person who meditated in front of the Great Desolate Heavenly Prison.

That old man, this old man was wearing a commoner's clothes and a woodcutter's attire. The commoner's clothes were tied with hemp rope, and he also had an ax around his waist. This ax was a very common firewood ax in the world. The whole firewood axe. It was iron gray, and only the ax blade was sharpened, as if it was particularly sharp for chopping wood.

This old man's face is covered with wrinkles, and his entire face looks black and yellow. This black and yellow color seems to have been polished and has a very texture. It is as if his old face has experienced countless wind and frost polishes. The wrinkles have all gone through precipitation.

There is nothing particularly outstanding about the old man's eyes. It can only be said that his eyes are very clear, just like the water of a mountain stream. Seeing such a pair of eyes, no matter how hot it is, you will suddenly feel a sense of coolness.

Every day before the sun rises, this old man comes to the foot of Honghuang Mountain. He meditates and meditates in front of Honghuang Heavenly Prison from a distance, facing the evil spirit spewing out from Honghuang Heavenly Prison. It seems that he is going to It's like swallowing such evil spirit into your stomach.

When the sun rose, he finished his work and chopped firewood at the foot of Honghuang Mountain. After cutting a full load of firewood, he then washed himself in the lake behind Honghuang Mountain, and then left with a load full of firewood. .

"I am a mortal, and I will not ascend to the immortal attic..." As the old man left with a load of firewood, he sang a folk song with a loud voice.

The morning light shrouded the undulating mountains, and the deep and open-minded singing echoed in the mountains. It seemed that this scene was frozen and became eternity.

An old man comes to meditate every day, collects only a load of firewood every day, and then leaves singing a song. It is so natural and comfortable, as if everything is in the mountains and wilderness.

Looking at such a scene, Li Qiye smiled faintly and quietly admired the scene, as if appreciating a landscape painting, which was a perfect piece of art.

On this day, after the old man finished meditating, he started chopping firewood again. Li Qiye also recovered from his trance, and walked casually in the forest, where he met the old man chopping firewood.

"Brother, you have finished your work early today." After seeing Li Qiye, the old man stopped first and greeted Li Qiye.

It seems that the old man also knows that Li Qiye lives in Honghuang Mountain, but he has never bothered Li Qiye.

"I have nothing to do." Li Qiye smiled and his eyes fell on the firewood ax in the old man's hand. It was a very ordinary firewood ax and seemed to be made of ordinary iron.

"What an axe." Li Qiye praised casually.

"Hehe, hehe, he's a eater." The old man said with a smile: "I polish it every day. Even if it's sharper, I can chop wood quickly."

"It's not just the ax that's being polished." Li Qiye shook his head and said with a smile, "It's also the Taoist heart that's being polished."

The old man was about to chop wood with his axe, but when he heard Li Qiye's words, he paused and stopped what he was doing. He looked at Li Qiye and couldn't help but be surprised and said: "Brother, these words are really golden words." language."

"Just say it casually." Li Qiye smiled and casually sat down on the branch of a dead tree, very leisurely.

The old man suddenly became interested, put down the ax in his hand, sat down, rubbed an old cigarette, took a puff, and said: "The little brother said casually, every word is worth a fortune. My old man is not very literate, but I also understand this principle.”

"You don't understand." Li Qiye laughed and said, "You know what it means."
