Long Lin chuckled and said, "Your talent is astonishing! Even my clan's Third Prince is no match for you! Originally, your physical body and soul power were your weaknesses! But now I can confirm that you have more than half of Bai Zhi's essence blood in your body! With the nourishment of this essence blood, in less than a thousand years, you will at least have the cultivation of a half-step Immortal Emperor! You are really lucky! You have found an Emperor-level god-sister who is willing to donate blood to you! I am so envious!"
Lin Caogen said impatiently in a low voice, "Old man! Stop beating around the bush! Get to the point! Otherwise, get lost! Revealing my identity won't be good for you either! Don't forget, you're the one who left the Third Prince of the Dragon Clan in the Fox Clan. You're not without blame either!"
Long Lin stroked his beard and said, "This old man never intended to expose you! On the contrary, I'm going to give you an immense fortune!"
Lin Caogen said indifferently, "Oh? You're actually being kind?"
Long Lin chuckled and said, "Your urine has been a bit yellow lately! I see some color in this drainpipe!" After saying this, Long Lin quietly handed Lin Caogen a metal ball about the size of a ping-pong ball!
Lin Caogen was startled! This made it clear that Long Lin knew about the tunnel digging! He gripped the metal ball in his hand tightly, not knowing what it was!
Suddenly, Long Lin turned around and shouted loudly to the four Venerables in the distance, "How's the investigation going? Any results?"
The four demon lords hurriedly came to Long Lin's side and said, "Reporting to the Prime Minister! We found nothing!"
Long Lin said calmly, "Since nothing has been found, let's go back! I still have to rush to deliver a memorial to His Majesty today! No one can bear the responsibility of delaying the important task of suppressing the rebels!"
The four Venerable Ones nodded hastily and said, "Your subordinates obey!"
Long Lin flicked his sleeves and led the four demon lords away from the Songshan Lake villa area!
Lin Caogen stared blankly at the round ball in his palm!
He had never seen anything like it before and had no idea what it was used for!
This small sphere weighs about ten kilograms, and on its surface is a metal ball the size of a grain of rice!
Lin Caogen pulled on the tiny ball, the size of a grain of rice, and a silver thread was pulled out from the larger ball!
Lin Caogen carefully touched the silver thread!
Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through my fingertip; the silver thread had cut my finger! Blood dripped directly onto the bed!
Lin Caogen was greatly surprised! He knew that after cultivating the Vajra Indestructible Divine Technique, he could catch blades with his bare hands! Even ordinary Xuan-rank weapons might not be able to draw blood from him! What exactly was this silver thread, that it was so sharp!
Lin Caogen held the silver thread up to the sunlight and examined it closely, discovering that it was covered with tiny serrations!
"Could this be the legendary Divine Silkworm Saw?"
As its name suggests, the Divine Silkworm Saw is a saw made from the silk of divine silkworms raised in the divine realm! This Divine Silkworm Saw can even cut through heavenly-grade weapons! It is the sharpest object in the world!
"That old bastard Long Lin! He actually saw through my identity! And he even knew about my secret tunnel digging! But not only did he not report me, he even gave me this Divine Silkworm Saw! What is his intention?"
Lin Caogen let out a long breath and paced back and forth in the bedroom!
"That old bastard! He strictly forbade me from swimming in the lake and fishing by the shore! Isn't this just a classic case of protesting too much? Songshan Lake is heavily guarded! It's obviously imprisoning a wanted criminal! That old thief Long Lin! Could he be planning to use me to rescue someone? There must be something going on at the bottom of the lake! I'll go down and investigate again tonight!"
Thinking of this, Lin Caogen continued his meditation. Around midnight, he picked up two iron pots, vigorously kneaded them, and transformed them into a large iron ball.
Songshan Lake is a saltwater lake! It's quite difficult to sink there! You'd have to bring a large iron ball down with you!
Lin Caogen, holding the iron ball, jumped into the puddle under the bedroom bed!
Afterwards, Lin Caogen climbed another 300 meters through the tunnel and finally reached Songshan Lake at 1 a.m.!
This is his second time entering this lake!
This time, because he was carrying an iron ball and a divine silkworm saw weighing more than ten kilograms, Lin Caogen quickly began to sink!
It took about ten minutes for Lin Caogen to sink to the bottom of the lake!
There is absolutely no light at the bottom of this lake!
Unfortunately, Lin Caogen could only investigate using his soul power!
The soul force scanned the bottom of the lake, like an ultrasonic radar, feeding back all the information about the bottom of the lake to Lin Caogen!
Just as Lin Caogen had predicted! There was indeed a stone door at the bottom of this lake!
Lin Caogen used all his strength to push open the stone door! He saw air above the stone door! He swam to the top and peeked out!
Good heavens!
There really is a prison down there! The prison walls are all made of black iron! It wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe them as impregnable! There are more than ten lamps burning eternally on the walls!
Under the light of the ever-burning lamp, a middle-aged man could be seen chained by four iron chains! Each chain emitted mysterious runes!
These are clearly shackles forged from refined black iron! And they are reinforced with runes and restrictions!
The middle-aged man slowly opened his eyes and stared at Lin Caogen.
Just one glance was enough to terrify Lin Caogen so much that his soul almost left his body!
The man's eyes seemed to flash with the image of mountains of corpses and seas of blood! A bright light flashed across his eyes, and with just one look, Lin Caogen's mind went awry!
The man said lazily, "Second-tier, 9th-star cultivation! Your physical body is even three points stronger than that of my dragon clan disciples! Your internal energy seems quite strong as well! The toughness and smoothness of your meridians surpass even those of my dragon clan disciples! Your soul power is also decent! You cultivate the human race's Divine Soul Scripture! Strange, strange! Why can I smell the blood of that girl Bai Zhi inside you!"
These few words of evaluation sent chills down Lin Caogen's spine!
"Who are you, senior! How are you so remarkable! You can recognize that the cultivation method I practice is the Divine Soul Scripture! And how do you recognize my sworn sister, Bai Zhi!"
