Chapter 679 The Prison Cell in the Back Mountain
After saying that, Lei Ting looked at Leng Yun.
Just as Leng Yun was about to ask a question, the entire church hall suddenly shook once again.
Everyone was horrified. It must be that Ghost Xuanwu had attacked the spell protecting the church hall again. If this happened a few more times, the entire hall would surely be breached by Ghost Xuanwu.
Lei Ting gritted her teeth and said to the leader of a guard team, "I'll leave this place to you for now. We're going out to take care of some business."
After saying that, he pulled Leng Yun out through the small passage behind the church hall.
"Where are we going?" Leng Yun asked.
Lei Ting snorted: "You'll find out when you come with me."
After walking through a long passage, the two arrived at a stone chamber with mechanisms.
If Lei Ting hadn't opened the mechanism, those outsiders probably would never have discovered this secret passage.
After walking through the secret passage for about five minutes, the two arrived outdoors.
Looking around, Leng Yun saw that they were in the middle of a mountain range.
"This is the back mountain," Lei Ting said, leading Leng Yun forward.
"What exactly happened?" Leng Yun's mind was filled with more and more questions.
Lei Ting looked back at Leng Yun, then sighed. She knew she had to tell Leng Yun about everything she needed to ask for his help.
Lei Ting then revealed the biggest secret of the Balance Sect to Leng Yun.
“Besides the secret of the Triad Power, our Balance Cult has another secret: we are imprisoning a super strong expert here, Grandmaster Thunder,” Lei Ting said.
"Grandmaster Lei Ming, a super strong expert?" Leng Yun remembered that Gui Xuanwu had come here specifically to find Grandmaster Lei Ming.
Lei Ting nodded and continued, "This Grandmaster Lei Ming's cultivation is even more powerful than our sect leader's; he's quite terrifying."
Leng Yun asked curiously, "Since he's so powerful, how could your Balance Sect possibly imprison him?"
“He imprisoned himself here; otherwise, none of us from the Balance Cult would be able to touch him,” Thunder explained.
Leng Yun was even more puzzled: "Why would you imprison yourself?"
Lei Ting then told the story of Grandmaster Lei Ming.
It turns out that this Thunder Master was also a member of the Balance Sect. He had extremely high cultivation, but his practice had gone to the point of demonic possession. Once he lost his mind, he would indiscriminately kill innocent people, and countless people had died at his hands.
At first, things were alright, but as Lei Ming's power grew stronger, he spent more and more time losing his mind.
Finally, fearing that he might truly go mad and become uncontrollable, Grandmaster Lei Ming requested to be imprisoned in this cell in the back mountain.
And Grandmaster Lei Ming swore never to leave this cell again.
A few days later, people heard pitiful cries around the cell.
Later, the disciple who brought food to Lei Ming inexplicably entered a prison cell and never came out again.
It's obvious that they've all been killed by Lei Ming.
At this moment, Lei Ming had completely gone mad and lost his mind.
Fortunately, Lei Ming did not break his oath and stayed in the cell without coming out.
Later, several groups of people entered the stone chamber to investigate, and without exception, none of them returned.
There was once a master swordsman who was on par with the Sword Master. After entering the stone chamber, he escaped, but he had gone mad and was shouting things like "monster" in the air.
Only two people in the entire Balance Cult have ever escaped from the stone chamber: him and the cult leader.
Although the cult leader did not go mad, after escaping, he was triggered by something unknown and began decades of seclusion, until he disappeared without a trace.
After that, no one dared to walk around the cell anymore, and it became a forbidden area for the Balance Church.
The Tripartite Power, a sacred artifact of the Balance Cult, was placed in a prison cell by the cult leader when he last entered this place.
With Grandmaster Lei Ming guarding the power of the Three Phases, it is indeed extremely safe.
But now even members of the Balance Cult dare not rashly go in and retrieve the Triad Power.
To enter the cell, one must first endure being struck by lightning.
Master Leiming's nature is associated with thunder.
Within the Balance Sect, cultivation is divided into three types: lightning, fire, and wood.
Lei Ming, the master of thunder, is the number one person with the thunder attribute, and Lei Ting also cultivates the thunder attribute.
Sword Masters are associated with the element of wood, representing endless vitality and longevity.
The cult leader himself is of the fire element.
At the entrance to the cell, there was already a strong force of lightning. People with weaker cultivation levels were paralyzed by the lightning even before they got close.
Therefore, when Lei Ting saw that Leng Yun was not afraid of being struck by lightning, she thought of asking Leng Yun to help her obtain the power of the three phases.
As they spoke, Leng Yun and his companion arrived near the prison cells on the back mountain.
In fact, this cell is just a cave, and the entrance to the cave is overgrown with weeds.
Even before getting close, Leng Yun could already feel the power of the lightning, indicating that the power of the lightning would be even stronger inside the cave.
"Who are you to Grandmaster Lei Ming?" Leng Yun asked.
Lei Ting said somewhat sadly, "Grandmaster Lei Ming is my father."
However, she was already used to it.
Even Lei Ting's lightning attribute cultivation level couldn't withstand the lightning power here.
It was also thanks to Leng Yun's ultimate attribute of the Thunder Lion bloodline that he was able to act recklessly.
Lei Ting continued, "If you can obtain the power of the three phases, I might be able to use the enhancement of the power of the three phases to deal with Ghost Xuanwu."
Leng Yun nodded. He knew in his heart that if he couldn't kill Gui Xuanwu, the entire Balance Sect, including himself, would probably be doomed.
Thinking of this, Leng Yun walked to the entrance of the cave by himself.
"I'll go in now. You wait here for my message," Leng Yun said to Lei Ting.
Lei Ting nodded, and surprisingly said, "Be careful."
Leng Yun smiled slightly at Lei Ting, then turned and entered the cave.
Upon entering the cave, Leng Yun immediately sensed an extremely powerful killing intent.
He recalled everything Lei Ting had told him before, and couldn't help but gasp inwardly, quickly walking forward.
The cave was very dark, and Leng Yun could feel the power of the lightning strikes everywhere.
Fortunately, he was protected by the bloodline of Lei Shi and was not seriously affected.
After walking for about five minutes, we passed through the cave passage and arrived at a stone chamber.
The stone chamber was enormous, with a large cloud of mist floating above it, moving even without wind, yet lightning strikes were much less frequent here.
The cave was eerily quiet, and Leng Yun seemed to be trapped in endless darkness.
Suddenly, Leng Yun felt a jolt in his heart and sensed something strange behind him.
He suddenly turned around, only to find a pair of murderous eyes staring at him through the mist.
There was a strange power in those eyes that made you feel like you were already dead.
