The elephant demon followed Gu Qingfeng's instructions and took him to the place where the human slaves were imprisoned.
On the way, Gu Qingfeng was afraid that the elephant monster would cheat and waste unnecessary time, so he forced him to swear to recognize his master.
After recognizing their master, led by the hunched and staggering figure of the elephant demon, the man and the demon continued to fly towards the depths of the space crack, passing through layers of building wreckage floating in the air, and finally stopped in front of a very spacious abandoned palace.
There were flashes of light on the abandoned palace, and it was obvious that there was a powerful formation to seal it off.
The elephant demon opened the formation's seal and led Gu Qingfeng inside.
After entering, Gu Qingfeng found that the room was arranged like a prison, divided into dozens of rooms. Each room was isolated by a formation and there was a person imprisoned inside.
Gu Qingfeng looked at the person closest to him. There were words engraved on the door of his room: [Treasure Body of the Earth]
He noticed that there were words engraved on each room, all of which were the names of a certain physical condition.
[Innate Dao Body], [Jade Bone Spirit Body], [Star War Body], [Three Yang True Body]...
The people inside were all almost naked, with dishevelled hair and very long hair. Regardless of gender, the hair was basically more than one meter long, and it was obvious that they had not been taken care of for a long time.
These people were covered with blood scabs that were dark red to black, and their faces could not be seen at all, especially the men, whose beards almost covered their entire faces, making them look like savages.
Everyone had a cold iron chain around their necks, and the other end of the chain was fixed to the wall inside the room, like livestock.
Looking around the prison, it was dead and gloomy. Everyone's eyes were filled with numbness, as if they were puppets with their souls taken away. It was a numbness that was close to despair.
Seeing this scene, Gu Qingfeng's face suddenly darkened. He knew very well who these people were and what they were being held here for.
They are all powerful gods with extraordinary bodies in the Qing Realm. They are the peerless geniuses and top powerhouses of the Qing Realm.
But now they have become the livestock of the holy clan, tied up like pigs and dogs, and their meat is cut and sold every day.
It was not until this moment that Gu Qingfeng felt deeply that he was too kind to the demons. He killed them after only torturing them for a few hours. Compared with the saints, it was not an exaggeration to call him a saint.
Treating enemies with kindness is not good and needs to be changed.
It just so happens that there are quite a few monsters in the other dimension. I can capture the entire Holy Clan later. When something happens, I will let them come out to fight for me. When I have nothing to do, I can sell some ivory and elephant trunks every day. It would be great to earn some pocket money at the same time.
Don't the Saints like to keep the Green Realm humans in captivity and sell them for money? Then just keep the Saints in captivity and sell them for money.
This is what is called reciprocity.
"Remove all the bans." Gu Qingfeng ordered.
The elephant demon hurriedly did as he was told and soon removed all the seals of the formation.
However, what was strange was that after the formation's seal dissipated, the people in those rooms did not move at all, or even react at all, as if they were dead.
Gu Qingfeng frowned, walked into a room, looked at the "savage" lying in the corner, stretched out his hand and waved it in front of his eyes.
But he found that the other person's eyes were lifeless and not even focused, looking like a walking corpse.
It seems that he can't even move his eyeballs.
Only his lips were trembling and whispering constantly.
Gu Qingfeng leaned down and finally heard clearly what the other person said.
"Killed... me... Killed... me..."
"Can you hear me?"
The man didn't respond, it seemed like he could only say this one sentence.
At this time, the elephant demon said: "Most of the people here have been imprisoned for hundreds or thousands of years. Their intelligence has dissipated. They are considered the living dead."
As the elephant demon spoke, he secretly glanced at Gu Qingfeng's expression.
However, there was only calmness on Gu Qingfeng's face, a calmness as dead silent as death.
Gu Qingfeng stared at the man for a long time, and suddenly, he moved.
With a slight wave of his hand, a strong wind hit the man.
Then the man's body went limp, his head tilted, and he died.
He died peacefully, and there even seemed to be a hint of a smile of relief on his lips.
Afterwards, Gu Qingfeng did the same thing, walking through each room in turn, first testing whether the other person was still conscious, and if not, he would help him get rid of it.
After going around, they found that these people had basically lost their minds. After all, the saints came down to the mortal world once every hundred years, which meant that the people here had suffered at least a hundred years of torture.
The one with the worst symptoms, although conscious, had gone mad. He just kept banging his head against the wall, trying to commit suicide.
However, all the power in his body was sealed, and he was just like an ordinary person. However, his physical strength was still at the level of a god, so he could not commit suicide successfully.
"Where is the Seven-Aperture Exquisite Body?"
"The Seven-Aperture Body can increase one's understanding, and is extremely precious, so it is placed on the second floor."
"Take me to the second floor."
"Yes, Master."
A moment later, Gu Qingfeng arrived at the second floor.
There is only one solitary cell on the second floor. There is a word carved outside the room: [Seven-aperture exquisite body]
There was also a person lying inside, with disheveled hair covering his features, his eyes dead, and a rotten smell emanating from his body.
What made this man different from the others was that he had a huge bloody hole on his chest. The hole was hollow and no heart could be seen.
There are a lot of granulation tissues around the blood hole that are slowly growing and healing.
Gu Qingfeng knew that this man was his father-in-law.
Just looking at his appearance, it seems that his mind has long since dissipated...
"Where's the heart?"
The elephant monster listened to Gu Qingfeng's calm words. For some reason, he felt that the temperature around him seemed to have dropped by several degrees.
"The most precious part of a Seven-Aperture Body is its heart, which is called the Seven-Aperture Heart. So usually after the heart has grown, it will be removed..."
"Pick it here?" Gu Qingfeng said expressionlessly.
He wanted to get his heart back so that he could recover faster.
"Not here, but outside, because it works best while it's hot."
Gu Qingfeng was silent. He now understood why his father-in-law was able to transmit knowledge from the upper realm to Shang Xinyan. It turned out that he had learned it secretly when he was taken to the outside world to have his heart removed.
"Open the formation."
"Yes, Master."
After the formation was opened, Gu Qingfeng walked in, squatted down and looked at his father-in-law.
My father-in-law was like a walking corpse, motionless.
"Can you hear me?"
My father-in-law didn't reply and remained motionless.
Gu Qingfeng sighed, after all, he was still late.
But he still didn't give up, and said again: "Shang Aobai."
This is my father-in-law's name.
Still no response.
"Shang Xinyan."
As soon as these three words came out, Shang Aobai moved. His sculpture-like body trembled slightly, his pupils gradually focused, and his eyes regained some of their spirit.
