In the following days, Jiang Yuan frantically attacked the Prison Abyss Barrier, but this time he was clearly more cautious than before, and he began to study the Nine Netherworlds of the Sea.
Thanks to Deng Kuan's reminder, Jiang Yuan did indeed discover many unusual places on Tonghai Jiuyou.
For example, there is another world beneath the eighteenth level of the prison abyss.
As for the entrance, there are two possibilities.
First, there was an imprisonment barrier that he couldn't break through, isolating the world below the eighteenth level.
Secondly, the entrance to the world below is on that clam!
This is Jiang Yuan's conjecture, but it is definitely a well-reasoned one. First of all, human beings are limited and can indeed be blinded by the unseen world. This kind of spatial dimensional reduction is difficult for people to perceive. Only by using conjecture to prove it can we belatedly deduce such a possibility.
There's also the sea clam. No other prisoner in the entire Abyss can connect to the Netherworld, except for it. It's an anomaly in the entire Abyss, so it's very likely that the sea clam knows the entrance to the unknown world.
However, despite his speculations, Jiang Yuan did not act rashly, because he had not yet reached the first level.
As Jiang Yuan broke through more and more of the Prison Abyss barriers, he became more and more skilled, breaking through the barriers faster and faster. On the sixth day after he entered the Ancient Sea Abyss, he successfully broke through the Prison Abyss barriers and reached the first level.
The first level had two survivors, the highest survival rate among all the prisons. However, this was not entirely good news, because the survival of the first level meant that the mortality rate of the entire Tiangang Special Forces Team was now determined.
Of the four survivors of the Tiangang Special Forces Team, including Yuwen Sichen, four souls perished. Four of them have left the world forever, leaving behind the Tianfu for which they gave their lives.
"Major General Jiang, I'm sorry."
The four survivors were all in a bad mood. They would rather die here than watch their brothers die in battle while they themselves survived.
"You shouldn't say 'I'm sorry' to me; you should say it to yourselves!"
Jiang Yuan's eyes hardened as he continued, "You are men of flesh and blood, and I understand your feelings. But don't forget, you are also soldiers. The moment you joined Tianfu, every soldier was prepared to die. Your guilt will be a disgrace to your brothers. If one day you fall in battle, would you want your brothers to blame themselves for your death, to grieve in secret because of your death?"
"At least, I won't!"
Jiang Yuan answered very affirmatively.
"Major General Jiang!"
The four survivors lowered their heads, their eyes blazing with fury—rage against the sea creatures.
They cannot afford to give up. The invasion of the sea creatures is imminent, and they will be the sharpest blade of China. Braving the waves is their destiny.
"Prisoner 9725, the warden requests your presence!"
The eighteenth level of the prison suddenly fell silent, because the prison guard who came was the captain of the entire prison's law enforcement team, whose status was second only to Somo.
"Invite me?"
Jiang Yuan had a bad feeling. It was obvious that Suo Mo had been watching his crazy attacks on the Prison Abyss these past few days.
The most crucial point is that he will lose his merman disguise in a day, and that will be the real crisis.
"The warden is already waiting there. If he keeps waiting, I can't guarantee that your human friends won't end up as fish food," the captain threatened in a strange tone.
"Oh!"
Jiang Yuan smiled indifferently, then nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go right away!"
Whether it's a blessing or a curse, we'll only know after we go.
"Wait here for me!"
After giving his instructions, Jiang Yuan still felt uneasy. He flicked his finger and sent several marks of the dead with intricate array patterns into their hands, instructing them, "If an uncontrollable crisis arises, open the clam, activate the things in your hands, and enter it. I will come looking for you."
The Mark of the Dead he gave them wasn't a powerful treasure; on the contrary, it allowed them to enter a state of death more quickly. Its only benefit was that it allowed the four of them to retain remnants of their souls.
For Jiang Yuan, who possessed the inheritance of the God of Death, the difference between being completely destroyed and retaining a remnant soul was enormous. For him, having a remnant soul meant having a chance to be reborn, but being completely destroyed meant having nothing left. Therefore, he preferred to let Deng Kuan and the others retain their lives by dying.
"Okay, we've got it!"
Deng Kuan and others now obey Jiang Yuan's every word. He is a true legendary figure, as if the sky will never fall as long as he is around.
Jiang Yuan straightened his appearance and said calmly, "Let's go, let's go meet your warden!"
...
"Warden, the person has been brought here."
Jiang Yuan stood inside an underwater palace made of jewels. He looked around and joked as if meeting an old friend, "It is said that the squid clan likes to collect rare treasures. After seeing it today, it is indeed not a legend."
"ha!"
The two-headed Suomo was smiling on one end, while the other end was staring intently at Jiang Yuan.
"You've made quite a commotion these past few days!" Somo, with four tentacles on his back, swam toward Jiang Yuan. "If I hadn't been suppressing the news, it might not be me standing in front of you today, but those half-decayed beings from the Sea King's Palace."
"So, you actually helped me!" Jiang Yuan said half-jokingly.
In fact, when he killed the bloodthirsty shark Durusomo on that day and did not punish him, he had a premonition that Somo had other intentions, but he was still unclear about the two-headed squid's purpose.
"No, I'm not helping you, I'm helping myself!" Somo readily admitted.
"oh?"
Jiang Yuan feigned interest and pondered, "Could it be that you'd like to see me turn Qiu Yuan upside down?"
