Ex-Wife is a Big Villainess

In short, the greatest treasure in this world is undoubtedly the Red Rain Sea. Whoever can obtain it, though it may not be said that they could destroy heaven and earth, could certainly rule the world effortlessly."

Jiang Shouzhong said, "What do you mean by telling me this?"

The little boy said, "It's simple, help me destroy this broken formation, and in return, I can lead you to the entrance of the Divine Prison. As for whether you can enter it, that will depend entirely on your own ability."

Jiang Shouzhong snorted coldly, "Do I look like a fool to you? Why should I trust you?"

The little boy's lips curled into a sly smile:

"Don't you find it strange? Jiang Chenghai and his disciples, why did they all suddenly disappear without a trace? Surely you don't naively believe that they were all killed by me?

I might as well tell you another secret; that year, the son of Jiang Chenghai was actually killed by Yan Changqing. Although he didn't die directly under Yan Changqing's sword, Yan Changqing is undeniably involved."

Jiang Shouzhong furrowed his brows, "You mean to say..."

"Underneath this array platform lies another layer of formation. Once activated, this place will be razed to the ground, and it wouldn't matter if you're a master at the Saintly Ascension Cultivation or even in the Feathered Transformation Realm, escaping death would be nearly impossible."

The little boy said, "Originally, Jiang Chenghai intended it for me, but since you've come... killing a disciple of his enemy along the way also gives him the best of both worlds, doesn't it?"

Jiang Shouzhong's intuition told him the other party wasn't lying.

Which means, from the moment Jiang Chenghai recognized him, he began his pretense.

And at this moment, he was indeed in danger.

The little boy said, "Earlier, I meant to use you to transfer the lower formation to your side, but since you've seen through it, we can only cooperate."

"When will the lower formation activate?"

Jiang Shouzhong asked.

The little boy said, "Originally, it was a quarter of an hour, but I used some technique to suppress it, though not for too long. To leave this place safely, not only do you need to destroy all the array eyes of the upper formation, but also those of the lower one.

The trouble is, the array eyes of the lower formation are completely hidden and covered by the upper one, making it impossible to touch with conventional means."

Jiang Shouzhong knits his sword-like brows tightly, "Then what should we do?"

The little boy, hands folded behind his back, smiled:

"So, we must cooperate well. I will perform a secret technique to invert these two formations.

At the moment of inversion, you need to act quickly and destroy all the array eyes on both platforms. Remember, you must be swift, otherwise, the formation will activate instantly, and we'll all die here.

Oh no, to be precise, you will die here, and as for me, I'll just continue being a magic treasure controlled by others."

Jiang Shouzhong glanced at Jiang Yi and nodded gently, "Alright."

After confirming the direction and position of the array eyes, the little boy knelt on one knee, placed his hand on the array platform, and closed his eyes.

As he murmured incantations, the surrounding space seemed to be stirred by an invisible force, gradually coalescing into a cluster of silver light emitting a dark glow.

This light cluster, as if it had life, gently unfolded and eventually transformed into a huge mirror.

The mirror's surface was as calm as a lake, yet it clearly reflected every detail of the array platform.

"Qiankun Inversion!"

The little boy abruptly opened his eyes and uttered in a light voice.

In the next second, Jiang Shouzhong felt a strong sense of vertigo hitting him.

Immediately afterward, the giant mirror above them began to slowly turn over, emitting creaking sounds.

At the same time, the array platform beneath their feet also started spinning rapidly.

"Hurry up!"

The little boy urged urgently.

Jiang Shouzhong fought against the dizziness and quickly captured the hidden array eye—it was a peculiar object resembling bird nests, emitting a faint blue glow.

Whoosh!

Two flying swords shot swiftly toward the array eye.

At the same time, Jiang Yi also took swift action, joining Jiang Shouzhong in destroying the array eye.

A crisp "crack" sound was heard.

Cracks began to spread rapidly across the array platform.

The little boy stood up, smiled, and said:

"When the road is one foot high, the devil is ten feet high. Next, it's time to settle accounts with them. Jiang Shouzhong, haven't you always wanted to know the Divine Prison entrance? Now, I will take you there!"

Boom!

The mirror shattered.

Turning into countless silver fragments, scattering everywhere.

The array platform collapsed alongside it.

The ground beneath everyone gave way, and they fell downward.

After Jiang Shouzhong landed, he looked around and found that they were inside a magnificent hall.

Every detail of this hall was all too familiar to Jiang Shouzhong—it was the Asura Hall he had seen in the Qingzhou Underground Palace.

Transported again?

Jiang Shouzhong was filled with confusion.

Inside the Asura Hall, Jiang Chenghai and his group were sitting cross-legged on a massive stone platform. Everyone was covered in something resembling gold dust that sparkled brilliantly.

The sudden appearance of a young boy caused the stone platform to explode.

Many disciples of Mingjing Valley didn't react in time, and they were blasted away, either dead or seriously injured.

Jiang Chenghai coldly stared at the young boy and then fixed his gaze on Jiang Shouzhong, a sinister smile playing on his lips as he spoke in an icy voice: "Young Hero Jiang, I didn't expect you to collude with this demon, truly disappointing."

Jiang Shouzhong ignored the question and surveyed the surroundings and the gold powder on everyone, asking: "What are you doing here?"

The young boy explained:

"Firstly, they hide here to avoid the aftermath of the formation explosion. Secondly, Jiang Chenghai harbors ill intentions, plotting to absorb the Mirror Demon Power from me.

Most others who take the demon path do so by ingesting Demon Qi, but he came up with an even more insane idea—to directly devour the Mirror Demon Power from my Demon Mirror."

Jiang Chenghai laughed loudly: "You might be a clever mirror, but you're ultimately too foolish. Actually, the trap I really set for you is right here."

"Oh, really?"

The young boy was dismissive.

However, in the next moment, an unexpected change occurred.

The walls around the hall seemed to be torn apart by an invisible giant hand, crashing down to reveal enormous mirrors.

Strangely, these mirrors couldn't reflect the images of Jiang Shouzhong or Jiang Chenghai and the others; instead, the figure of the young boy continuously appeared in the mirrors.

One, two, three...

In the blink of an eye, thousands of figures of the young boy appeared in the mirrors.

"How could this be..."

For the first time, the young boy showed a frightened expression, his eyes wide with disbelief.

Then, the four mirrors started vibrating violently.

The young boy wanted to escape, but he was tightly restrained, unable to move.

Soon, his skin began to crack, his flesh peeling away inch by inch, and his bones turned into silver powder...

In a piercing scream, he was absorbed into the four mirrors.

"Kill them!"

Jiang Chenghai pointed at Jiang Shouzhong and his two companions, ordering.

After speaking, his figure flashed, flying above the mirrors.

The demon power absorbed into the mirrors seemed to have found a new host, eagerly pouring into Jiang Chenghai's body.

For a moment, Jiang Chenghai's body swelled several times over.

The disciples of Mingjing Valley, now like controlled puppets, eyes vacant, charged at Jiang Shouzhong and his group with madness.

Jiang Shouzhong unleashed his flying sword.

The flying sword pierced through one person's head like lightning.

Strangely, the person did not fall; instead, their form twisted, splitting into another identical being, albeit with noticeably less gold powder.

"Another illusion?"

Jiang Shouzhong was surprised, continuing his attack.

However, no matter how he slew them, the disciples always bizarrely replicated another identical form.

Moreover, each time one was killed, the number of replicas increased—two, four, eight... multiplying endlessly.

It was then that the Heavenly Dog Divine Demon suddenly let out a thundering roar.

In the blink of an eye, the once small body transformed into a massive creature with three gigantic heads, its entire fur ablaze like a moving volcano.

The Heavenly Dog Divine Demon roared and charged fiercely at the endlessly replicating disciples.

Strangely, any disciple bitten by it either turned into a wisp of blue smoke, dissipating in the air, or quickly transformed into a heap of bones, never replicating again.

Under the ferocious attack of the Heavenly Dog Divine Demon, the eerie disciples were quickly wiped out.

Above, Jiang Chenghai, absorbing demon power, wore an expression of disbelief:

"Isn't that the Divine Prison Dog that was by Red Demon's side? It should have been killed long ago by those immortals while guarding the Divine Prison for Red Demon."
