Escaping the Dungeon

The moment the words left his mouth, his meridians bulged violently, and fine beads of blood seeped from his skin. A power several times stronger than before erupted from his dantian, and the golden light of the Golden Bell Shield solidified, forming a set of ancient armor on his body.

"Break for me!"

Li Chen Zhou roared, punching towards the Martial Suppression Talisman above his head. Where the fist wind passed, the air was torn with black cracks. The moment his fist touched the talisman, the entire prison shook violently, and the golden characters on the talisman exploded one after another.

"Crack—"

A crisp cracking sound echoed through the passage. The Martial Suppression Talisman turned into golden powder and scattered, replaced by a phantom of an old man wearing a star crown and a Dark Official Robe. The old man's eyes were like lightning, glaring at Li Chen Zhou: "Who dares to destroy my talisman?!"

The terrifying pressure caused spiderweb-like cracks to appear on the stone walls on both sides. Blood spilled from Li Chen Zhou's mouth and nose, but he grinned, revealing blood-stained teeth: "The one who will take your life!"

He unhesitatingly threw a second punch, this one containing all the power gained from burning his lifespan. The Warden's phantom snorted coldly, and seven starlight beams flew out from his sleeve, but they shattered one after another the moment they touched the fist wind.

"Boom!"

The phantom was forcibly shattered, and the remaining force of the punch did not diminish, directly blasting a huge hole in the three-foot-thick bluestone ceiling above. Moonlight poured down like water, shining on Li Chen Zhou's blood-soaked figure.

[Warning! Remaining lifespan: Twenty-nine years]

Li Chen Zhou didn't bother to check the system prompt, because the moment the restriction was lifted, the entire prison was already boiling. Excited roars came from every cell, and the sound of heavy shackles breaking echoed.

"Hahaha! My inner strength is back!"

"Thirty years! A full thirty years!"

"You court dogs, Grandpa is here!"

The deepest cell suddenly exploded, and an old man with disheveled hair walked out. With each step he took, a layer of frost formed on the ground. When he saw Li Chen Zhou, the old man revealed his snow-white teeth: "Kid, I owe you a favor."

A dwarf rushed out of the cell on the right, wearing steel knuckles on both hands, and prison guards had their brains splattered wherever he went. He cackled and jumped onto Li Chen Zhou's shoulder: "Take me with you!"

In an instant, more than twenty notorious criminals gathered around Li Chen Zhou.

The eight main gates rose with a rumble, revealing the Black Armor Army arrayed outside.

These elite soldiers were clad in black heavy armor, their faces covered with iron masks, wielding spears and heavy shields, with sharp sabers hanging from their waists, their murderous aura chilling. They stood in silent formation, like an iron wall, blocking the entire passage.

"Kill! Leave no one alive!" the Black Armor Army Captain at the head ordered coldly.

"Boom—"

The front row of heavy shields slammed into the ground, spears like a forest, cold light flashing. Archers in the rear had already nocked their arrows, and the arrows pierced through the air, pouring down like a rainstorm!

"Hahaha! Well done!" The white-haired old man laughed wildly, pushing out with both palms, and the cold air swept out, freezing all the arrows that were shot at them into ice, which fell to the ground with a crackling sound.

"Kill your way out!" Li Chen Zhou roared, the Golden Bell Shield operating at full power, his whole body bursting with golden light, like a golden armored god of war, directly rushing towards the rain of arrows!

"Clang clang clang—" The arrows shot at him, but bounced off as if hitting a copper wall and iron wall.

"Follow him!" The dwarf screeched, his figure darting out like a ghost, the steel knuckles flashing coldly, instantly tearing the throats of two Black Armor Army soldiers.

"Boom—" Li Chen Zhou smashed a punch on the heavy shield in the front row, the terrifying force directly sending three Black Armor Army soldiers flying, the shield shattered, the iron armor dented, and the soldiers vomited blood and flew out!

"Stop them!" The Black Armor Army Captain roared, drawing his saber, the blade sharp, and slashing straight at Li Chen Zhou's neck.

"Clang!" Li Chen Zhou didn't dodge or evade, letting the blade slash at his neck, sparks flying, and the blade was even chipped!

"What?!" The captain's pupils shrank.

"Get lost!" Li Chen Zhou punched back, the armor on the captain's chest instantly caved in, and the whole person crashed into the rear army formation like a cannonball, knocking over a group of soldiers!

"Hahaha! Wonderful!" The white-haired old man's palms flipped, and the cold air raged, freezing the Black Armor Army into ice sculptures wherever he passed, and then they were shattered by other prisoners with one punch!

"Kill! Kill all these court dogs!" The prisoners laughed wildly, the ferocity suppressed for many years completely erupting, their methods were ruthless, and every move was fatal.

However, the Black Armor Army was well-trained after all. After a brief chaos, they quickly adjusted their formation, spears like a forest, advancing step by step, trying to force everyone back into the prison.

"Shua—" A sharp whistle sounded, and someone behind the Black Armor Army lit a signal arrow, and a fiery red flame shot into the sky and exploded in the night sky!

"Not good! They are calling for help!" Li Chen Zhou's heart sank.

Once reinforcements arrive, they will be besieged here!

"We can't delay! Break out!" he shouted sharply.

"Follow me closely!" The white-haired old man snorted coldly, his palms suddenly clasped together, and an extremely cold storm swept out, instantly freezing dozens of Black Armor Army soldiers in front!

"Go!" Li Chen Zhou seized the opportunity, leading everyone through the frozen army formation, and broke through to the outside of the prison.

However, just as they were about to rush out of the passage—

"Boom!" A huge figure descended from the sky, crashing heavily on the ground, shaking the entire prison!

As the smoke cleared, a giant man nine feet tall, with knotted muscles all over his body, slowly stood up, holding a thousand-pound giant hammer, and looked at everyone with a grin.

"Want to leave? Have you asked this general?"

"It's... 'Hell-Suppressing General' Pei Kuang!" a prisoner shouted in horror.

Li Chen Zhou's eyes narrowed—this person is a true martial arts expert!

"Kill!" Pei Kuang laughed wildly, sweeping the giant hammer horizontally, and the air was blasted with explosions!

Li Chen Zhou took a deep breath, urging the Golden Bell Shield to the extreme, and met him head-on!

"Boom—"

Two terrifying forces collided, and the entire passage collapsed!

"Boom—!"

Pei Kuang's giant hammer crashed down, the ground split apart, and gravel flew!

However, Li Chen Zhou suddenly retreated at this moment, a cold smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.

"Switch!"

Before his voice faded, a black shadow flashed out from behind him like a ghost, his palms like knives, striking directly at Pei Kuang's wrist!

"Crack!"

The sound of bones breaking was clearly audible, and Pei Kuang groaned, the giant hammer slipping from his grasp!

"What?!" He looked up in shock and anger, only to see a gaunt, skeletal old man standing in front of him, his ten fingers like hooks, his nails gleaming with a ghostly blue light.

"Old Devil Poison Claw?!" Pei Kuang's pupils shrank sharply, obviously recognizing this notorious devil from thirty years ago!

"Heh heh, little whelp of the Pei family, even your father couldn't withstand three moves from this old man back then, what makes you think you're worthy of blocking my path?" Old Devil Poison Claw sneered, his figure swaying, his five fingers like lightning, aiming straight for Pei Kuang's throat!

Pei Kuang roared, his muscles bulging all over his body, and he forcibly used his shoulder to knock away Old Devil Poison Claw's attack, throwing a punch in return!

"Bang!"

Old Devil Poison Claw was knocked back several steps, but he was unharmed. Instead, he licked the bloodstains on his fingernails and grinned hideously, "Not bad, you have some strength, but unfortunately... you're poisoned."

Pei Kuang was stunned, and when he looked down, he saw five tiny blood holes on his fist at some point, and the area around the wounds had turned a strange blue-purple!

"You—!" He was about to curse angrily, but he suddenly spat out a mouthful of black blood, and the muscles all over his body began to twitch uncontrollably!

"Hahaha! The poison has taken effect, right? How does this old man's 'Bone-Corroding Soul-Scattering Poison' taste?" Old Devil Poison Claw laughed wildly.

On the other side, the white-haired old man's palms fluttered, and the cold air raged, freezing all the Black Armor Army in its path; the dwarf's figure was as fast as lightning, his brass knuckles stained with blood, specifically targeting the gaps in the armor, killing with one blow; the other prisoners also displayed their unique skills, causing the Black Armor Army to retreat steadily!
