Chapter 112 - 102 Tiandu Continent, Prison World!
"Because the Tiandu Continent itself is a prison—a prison that confines endless beings!"
Hongtian Great Saint’s simple words exploded like the most terrible thunder, so much so that even Ye Chen, who would remain unfazed even if Mount Tai collapsed before him, could no longer maintain his composure, and his expression suddenly changed.
Elder Yan was no different.
Whether it was Ye Chen or Elder Yan, though they both had been extremely powerful before and could completely overlook the entire Tiandu Continent, their awakenings on the Tiandu Continent meant they had not yet regained the strength of their previous lives. Therefore, they were still unfamiliar with this vast world.
Yet the realization that the vast Tiandu Continent was actually a prison shocked them both, almost to disbelief.
Enshrouded in a black robe, Ye Chen’s expression was indiscernible, but Hongtian Great Saint seemed to see the surprise on his face and chuckled, "I know you can’t believe all of this, but the fact is just so, the Tiandu Continent is a prison, incarcerating countless beings of the entire Tiandu Continent."
Hongtian Great Saint laughed bitterly, "Actually, none of us want to believe this fact, but it is the truth, a cruel one that we have no choice but to accept."
"Our ancestors have lived in the Tiandu Continent for generations. How prosperous it has been, thriving for tens of thousands of years without decline, even giving rise to one Supreme Divine being after another who commanded respect across the continent. Yet, who could have imagined the place we live in is but a prison that traps countless beings for generations—how tragic."
At the end, Hongtian Great Saint’s expression was full of sorrow and self-mockery. Indeed, a world that had been passed down from ancestors and survived generation after generation was filled with emotion, but who could have imagined that the place they always lived was just a prison?
Despite the prison being astoundingly vast and extraordinary, it was still a prison.
Ye Chen, after all, was not a man of the Tiandu Continent, so he couldn’t possibly be filled with the same grievous melancholy as Hongtian Great Saint. He quickly regained his composure and said, "Why call it a prison? It might just be a part of the world. In the vast universe, anything can exist. The place where the Tiandu Continent is situated might just be one of the regions within it. Calling it a prison seems inappropriate."
