Chapter 386: Chapter 383 Su Ying

Ye Xuan immediately extended his palm, and a wave of scorching heat swept across, enveloping the four of them within a Fire Energy Shield propelled by True Qi.

With the presence of this Fire Energy Shield, the white Resentful Spirits surrounding them dared not approach easily. Whenever a Resentful Spirit attempted a sneak attack, it would be repelled by the shield and emit a piercing shriek.

"The ancient temple has three floors, and each floor imprisons a powerful entity, it’s improbable that there’s no one here."

Gazing at the ancient temple before him, the Venerable Snake Demon also spoke up.

Ye Xuan certainly had no doubts about this statement; however, after searching through the entire temple, he did not spot any human figures, which caused him to furrow his brows. Then, he lay down on the ground, pressing his ear against it and listened intently for a while. Only then did a change appear in Ye Xuan’s eyes. His palm suddenly reached downward, breaking through the ground and embedding deeply.

Splash!

With one swipe of his palm, the ground bore a claw mark, and amidst the scattering rocks, Ye Xuan lifted his palm, now holding a chain as thick as a python snake.

Ye Xuan pulled the chain from underground, causing a straight line of ground to crack open. As he tugged on the chain, the ground began to tremble slightly; from three other directions, chains also broke through and rose from beneath.

Ye Xuan didn’t focus on those four chains. His gaze was fixed entirely on the center of the four chains where a black stone chair appeared. Sitting on the stone chair was a gaunt figure.

This gaunt figure was bound by the four chains at both wrists and ankles, and dozens of steel nails were hammered into his body, pinning him to the chair. These were not ordinary nails, but bone-locking nails capable of containing the body’s power and restricting movement.

Ye Xuan’s gaze sharpened as he examined the figure on the stone chair more closely to discover that it had already lost all signs of life, and its skin was dried up, showing that it had perished long ago.

"The one who imprisoned this guy was truly cruel, sealing his entire demonic power, subjecting him to relentless torment. Over the long years, he was unable to live or die, ultimately trapped here until his death, turning into an unheeded skeleton, decaying in this place."

Ye Xuan took a deep breath. This kind of method even left him feeling a bit horrified, almost more dreadful than killing someone.

"This person, having been imprisoned in this Land of Sin, must have been a formidable individual in life."

The Wolf Demon had a solemn expression as well. In fact, many of the individuals in this Ice Prison weren’t genuinely evil, they were just enemies of Sky Demon Mountain and were captured and held here.

"Let’s go!"

Ye Xuan lingered in front of the mummified corpse for only a moment before continuing onward to the second floor of the ancient temple.

The thought that his own mother might be trapped here in such a manner tightened Ye Xuan’s heart with anxiety. He feared he might be too late, and if Su Ying had also turned into a mummy like the person on the first floor, he would probably be plagued by guilt for the rest of his life.

...

The second floor of the ancient temple.

The sinister atmosphere here was even heavier than on the first floor. As soon as Ye Xuan stepped in, he felt uneasy, breaking out in goosebumps.

Although the environment here was different from the dilapidated state of the first floor, this level of the ancient temple was spotlessly clean and incredibly lucid, surrounded by flawless ice walls emitting a faint chill.

Ye Xuan looked around the nearly dead-silent hall, his expression solemn. He walked forward a few steps, his gaze scanning the surroundings. Although the environment differed from the first floor, the atmosphere was nearly the same—devoid of any trace of human life.

Bang!

Just when Ye Xuan’s expression was somewhat somber, he suddenly felt as if he had encountered some obstacle, and then he slowly reached forward, discovering an invisible wall.

"Is there actually a wall here?"

Ye Xuan was stunned, finding it hard to believe, but soon not only he, but also the others, including the Wolf Demon among the three, were all exclaiming in surprise, having discovered the hidden invisible barrier.

A glint flashed in Ye Xuan’s eyes, knowing there must be something tricky about this place. He then gestured for the Three Demons to step back before drawing out the Dragon Abyss Ancient Sword.

Whoosh!

Ye Xuan swung the sword without hesitation, striking at the invisible barrier. However, most of the force from Ye Xuan’s sword was deflected, as if the sword had hit something solid but then missed completely, as if it hadn’t touched anything at all.

"What a clever prohibition, I don’t believe I can’t see through it."

Ye Xuan’s eyes narrowed, and he immediately stimulated the Great Perfection of soul power from the Xuan Realm, concentrating it all in his eyes and pushing his vision to the limit.

At that moment, what had seemed like a nonexistent obstacle revealed its true form in front of Ye Xuan.

There blocking the way was a wall shimmering like crystal, seemingly made entirely of condensed ice. Inside this crystal barrier was a delicately arranged room that, although sparsely furnished, had an air of meticulousness about it.

However, Ye Xuan’s gaze paused only briefly on the room before sharply focusing on the sole figure within.

The figure that caught his eye was a stunning girl with silver robes and silver hair. She sat quietly on a chair, her hands busy weaving a piece of fabric, her expression peaceful and serene, exuding an innate nobility.

At the sight of this silver-haired girl, Ye Xuan’s body shook. Although it was his first time seeing her, their first meeting made him feel a deep, inherent kinship. In that instant, he knew that the silver-haired girl was the one he was looking for.

His birth mother, the Dragon Girl Su Ying. There could be no mistake.

Ye Xuan became inwardly excited. After searching for so long, he finally met her in person, and he was relieved that she seemed unharmed, even though she was confined in this crystal prison.

Ye Xuan kept his eyes steadfastly on the silver-haired girl, but she continued to focus intently on her task, which confirmed for Ye Xuan that from within this prohibition, she likely couldn’t see the outside.

That meant she couldn’t see him here.

"How is it going, my lord?"

The Wolf Demon at his side asked.

"I’ve found her, but how can this crystal-like prohibition be broken?"

Ye Xuan didn’t celebrate too soon and began to ponder.

"This prohibition must have been set by the Demon Dragon Venerable. To break his prohibition without reaching his level of power will be very difficult." The Scorpion Demon shook his head. In his view, although Ye Xuan was powerful, he was still far from matching the Demon Dragon Venerable.
