Chiling clone immediately used the Beast God Intent to harness the World Force of the Holy Star Stone to explore outwards.

"Not bad, there's still a 20-kilometer radius of influence. The range of my telekinetic detection is much smaller than outside. No wonder they say that obtaining the Origin Heart largely depends on luck."

Chiling clone then truly understood. "Even with the Beast God Intent, I can only project a 20-kilometer range. This 'Killing Absolute Prison' is at least larger than a planet. If a one- or Two-Star Blood Demon level member of the Prison Race were to encounter the Origin Heart, there's a good chance they could take it out, or even fuse with it on the spot!"

This Killing Absolute Prison made even flying difficult for him, and it also limited the range of his psychic power. Was he destined to scan and probe little by little?

Chiling clone inexplicably felt a surge of restlessness, his anger rising.

"Wrong!"

How could his state of mind be so bad?

Chiling clone became alert and forcibly suppressed the rising anger within him.

Suddenly, a figure crashed down not far in front of him. A Prison Race, resembling a rhinoceros, charged towards him and began fighting the Prison Race Lord who had crashed down in front of him.

The two Prison Race seemed to harbor a deep-seated hatred for each other, and they fought like giant beasts, shaking the earth.

Chiling clone was dumbfounded. He scanned the two combatants with his mental power, but neither of them showed any fluctuations of their Origin Heart. The Killing Absolute Prison had only just opened, so what were they fighting about?

Perhaps sensing the psychic probing of Chiling clone, one of the Prison Race in the midst of battle turned its head to look at Chiling and let out a ferocious roar, ignoring its opponent and rushing towards Chiling!

"What is that?!"

Startled, Chiling clone dodged the attack from the Prison Race.

Unexpectedly, his dodge seemed to have provoked the ferocity of the two Prison Race. The two, who had been fighting to the death just moments before, rushed towards Chiling together, their eyes filled with murderous intent.

Although Chiling was puzzled, he did not intend to back down any further. He took out the Thunder Prison Blade and slashed at the two Prison Race who seemed to have fallen into madness. The fierce blade light, carrying a storm of lightning, locked onto the two of them.

These two Prison Race only possessed the strength of One-Star Blood Demon, Chiling clone could easily kill instantly.

As the blade approached, the two men's crazed eyes seemed to be jolted back to their senses by the impending death. Their killing intent faded, and they revealed a hint of pleading. However, Chiling showed no mercy when he made his move, crushing them with power almost at the level of Immortal God.

"They were blinded by the Killing Will."

Chiling looked up at the person who had just spoken. The person was shorter than Chiling, but his whole body radiated a silvery-white crystalline luster, with two pairs of wings extending from his back and Three-Star Blood Demon medal on his chest.

The key point is that he was actually suspended in mid-air, and there were no fluctuations of laws around him, as if the powerful gravity of the Killing Absolute Prison had no effect on him.

"My name is Silver Star, but everyone else calls me Silver Star Blood Demon."

Energy Lifeform?

Chiling's expression remained unchanged. "Silver Star?"

Silver Star Blood Demon paused for a moment, muttering to himself, "Never heard of my name? Is this Thunder Prison Blood Demon's offspring truly an ascetic? Did he cultivate in some remote corner for hundreds of epochs before emerging from the mountains?"

"The reason why it's called the Killing Absolute Prison n't just because of the struggle for the Origin Heart," Silver Star Blood Demon laughed. "There are 81 Killing Absolute Prison in total, and the 81 palaces were established to guard these 81 Killing Absolute Prison."

"Everyone who enters the Killing Absolute Prison will be affected by the invisible Killing Will here. The two you just killed have already been captured by the Killing Will and become insane and bloodthirsty."

Silver Star Blood Demon's tone was somewhat disdainful. "These world-class beings who have just crossed the threshold of One-Star Blood Demon dare to come to the Killing Absolute Prison to try their luck. Under the influence of the Killing Will, their consciousness will gradually become crazy and bloodthirsty, knowing only how to kill, killing each other. Every time the Killing Absolute Prison opens, countless world-class beings will be drawn into endless killing and die here."

Silver Star Blood Demon looked at the thoughtful Chiling clone and laughed, "If not, how was the Origin Heart formed? The Origin Heart is also called the Killing Heart. Just as the energy of the Blood Pool that can enhance your flesh and blood life is formed from the energy of a large number of Crystal Race powerhouses, the nutrients nurtured by the Killing Heart are naturally the lives of countless powerhouses of my Prison Race."

"Killing Heart..." Chiling clone's pupils suddenly contracted.

"Therefore, it is said that to fuse with the Killing Heart, one must also condense Killing Will. The stronger the Killing Will, the faster the fusion. This is also the reason why our Prison Race reveres slaughter. If you are not a powerful being who has slaughtered countless people, how can you withstand the impact of the Killing Will of countless Prison Race lives in the Origin Heart?"

Good heavens, no wonder the Prison Race produces such freakish, bloodthirsty monsters; the entire Prison Race's living environment and training system are extremely perverse.

Chiling clone, thankfully that after Kuishen Venerable betrayed the Monster Race alliance, he joined the human race instead of the Prison Race. Although he had been here for over eight hundred years and had largely accepted the worldview of the survival of the fittest, he still found the Prison Race's way of life somewhat unacceptable.

"Generally speaking, the stronger one's strength, the stronger one's resistance to this Absolute Prison Killing Will. However, as time goes by, the Killing Will will become stronger and stronger, to the point that even we Three-Star Blood Demon will be affected by it, lose our minds, and become killing machines."

"I still remember the Blood Edge Prefecture's Killing Absolute Prison three hundred epochs ago. The Origin Heart was not found for a long time, and eventually even many Three-Star Blood Demon lost their minds and fell into a frenzied and meaningless killing spree. Your father, the Thunder Prison Blood Demon, died because of this. Fortunately, I only have Crystal Core and no soul, so I am not affected by the Killing Will, which is why I survived."

Silver Star Blood Demon looked at Chiling clone, flapped its wings, and laughed, "Let's not talk about that. I sensed the psychic power you just released; the range was nearly 20 kilometers, so I came to check."

Chiling clone nodded. "My psychic power's range is indeed about 20 kilometers here."

Silver Star Blood Demon's expression brightened even more. "Interested in teaming up with me?"

"Team up?"

"Although I don't know what kind of secret technique or treasure you used to achieve this, I dare say that even few of those Peak Blood Demons could achieve a 20-kilometer range. You have this advantage, and if you team up with me, the two of us can be like a tiger with wings."

The Silver Star Blood Demon said with a hint of arrogance, "You've seen it yourself: I can fly, and my maximum speed can reach thousands of kilometers per second. Here, I'm second to none. Even with you by my side, I can definitely surpass most Three-Star Blood Demon. The reconnaissance efficiency of you and me as a team is unmatched."

"You once scared away that Jianluo Queen, which means your strength is no less than your father, the Thunder Prison Blood Demon. You should have the strength of a powerful Blood Demon. I also have the strength of a powerful Blood Demon. We can't handle those Peak Blood Demons or even three-star Ultimate Blood Demon. But if the two of us team up, we can maximize our advantages and increase the probability of obtaining the Origin Heart. In this Killing Absolute Prison, strength alone is not enough to guarantee obtaining the Origin Heart."

Chiling clone narrowed his eyes. There was a big difference in strength among the Three-Star Blood Demon, which could be roughly divided into four levels. The first level was the ordinary Three-Star Blood Demon, which was about the same level as that Jianluo Queen.

The second level is the powerful Blood Demon. The last genius of the Luoxiao Race Imperial Race who broke out of this "prison" three hundred epochs ago and earned the title of "Thunder Prison Blood Demon" was at this level.

The third level is the Peak Blood Demon, and the fourth level is the three-star limit. Only certain powerful plant-type Prison Race or special Prison Race with extremely high Gene Level can reach the fourth level.

The Silver Star Blood Demon thought it was normal for his strength to be at the second level, since he was the successor of the Thunder Prison Blood Demon, who was at the second level. The probability of a student surpassing his master was not high.

Moreover, he was disguised as a member of the Blackhorn Race, a low-level flesh-and-blood Prison Race. Even after Blood Pool Baptism, their Gene Level would not be very high. For the Prison Race, without an extremely high Gene Level, it would be difficult to reach the level of Peak Blood Demon or above, no matter how high their Law Comprehension is.

Chiling sneered, "If the Origin Heart is discovered, who will get it? Everyone wants the Origin Heart, so how will it be divided?"

Silver Star Blood Demon said calmly, "If this Killing Absolute Prison is the same as before, then there's nothing we can do but rely on our own abilities. However, Youhun Prefecture Master said that three Origin Heart have been nurtured in this Absolute Prison. I can promise you that the first Origin Heart we discover can be given to you. If we continue to cooperate, my speed will be unmatched, and no one can catch up with me. The second Origin Heart will then belong to me. What do you say?"

Chiling clone frowned and asked in return, "Since you have such speed, you can completely make up for the shortcoming of your small psychic range. There's really no need for you to team up with me."

If Chiling clone were to unleash its true power, it could also fly, but it knew its speed was definitely no match for the Silver Star Blood Demon, whose two pairs of wings were certainly not simple treasures.

Silver Star Blood Demon paused for a moment and said, "Finding the Origin Heart cannot rely solely on speed. The Origin Heart is not necessarily hidden in a rock or tree on the surface. In the past, the Origin Heart has been hidden tens or even hundreds of kilometers underground, or even in the core of many huge mountain ranges. There have been cases where the Origin Heart could not be found even after several or decades since the opening of the Absolute Prison."

"This Killing Absolute Prison, both in its mountainside and deep underground, is composed of extremely hard rock. It's not easy to carve it open. My psychic power's range is only about 1 kilometer, but it can reach a maximum of 3 kilometers when I activate the Darkness Force. Your psychic power's range is a full 20 kilometers. Do you know what that means?"

Chiling clone then realized that the wide range of his mental energy was actually a great advantage in this Killing Absolute Prison.
