Chapter 606: Chapter 602: Medicine People Chapter 606: Chapter 602: Medicine People “Damn it, the Elixir…”

Blue Bull Spirit's face slightly changed. He fiercely hit his forehead, turned around anxiously, and rushed towards the Water Curtain Cave.

But after taking two steps, he turned back and shouted, “Take this guy to my cave mansion, and lock him up with those Medicine People.”

After saying that, he leapt high, and in an instant, he flew into the Water Curtain Cave.

On seeing this, the old horse monkey quickly walked up, ordered the little demons on either side to seize Shen Luo, and headed towards the Water Curtain Cave.

Shen Luo was held up by two demons. After staggering a few steps, the severe pain in his brow began to fade. The Great Unsealing Technique started to operate by itself, a light traveled from his body to his brow, initiating the healing process for the injury.

However, even before the injury started healing, the golden rope on his body got activated again, absorbing all the mana that had just started to circulate.

Shen Luo sighed in his heart and could only temporarily stop trying.

The old horse monkey led others and flew into the Water Curtain Cave with Shen Luo. After passing through a curtain of water, they landed on an arch bridge.

Shen Luo looked around and found that inside the cave mansion, huge Night Pearls were embedded everywhere, emitting soft white light, illuminating the surroundings brightly.

After crossing the stone bridge, Shen Luo saw a spacious open ground inside the cave. On it were stone tables and chairs, laden with various fresh fruits and trays of bloody raw meat and organs.

Two rows of demon race soldiers in armor stood on either side, their posture straight like spears.

At the back of this flat ground, there was a stone throne, covered with a whole tiger skin, looking quite imposing. However, the Blue Bull Spirit was not seated on it.

Before Shen Luo could look around more, he was shoved by the demons, crossed that flat open ground, and came to a dark side cave on the right.

“Take him in,” the old horse monkey glanced at Shen Luo and ordered.

Upon hearing this, the little demons immediately pushed Shen Luo into the cave entrance, walking fast down a slope towards the lower frontier.

For some reason, the old horse monkey did not follow.

Inside the side cave, there were no Night Pearls. After they had walked more than a hundred steps in, the surroundings gradually became darker. Shen Luo's vision was unaffected by the light and darkness, allowing him to clearly see the scenery within the cave.

In the area he passed, black iron cages were placed everywhere. Each one had a dark purple talisman attached to it, and the rune depicted on each talisman was different. Some were emitting weak fluctuations of spiritual power, while some had completely run out of spiritual power.

Just as Shen Luo was wondering, his eyes suddenly flickered. Inside one of the cages, he saw a skeleton glowing with a white light, casually leaning against a corner of the cage.

From the luster of the bones, it was easy to tell that the person was a cultivator with considerable achievements before death.

As they continue to walk further inside, the number of white skeletons in the surrounding cages increased. Some were hanging from the top of the cages, some were seated in the center, and some were completely decayed into disarray of bones.

“Hmm hmm hmm…”

Just then, a strangled sound, like it was being squeezed out from deep within the throat, rose with difficulty from the side.

Shen Luo turned his head and saw an old man imprisoned in a cage beside him, who was short like a child. His tattered clothes covered his entire body.

His face was without eyes, only two pitch-black holes. His nose seemed to have been cut off by a sharp tool, leaving only a scar that extended to the center of his face. It appeared that his tongue had been ripped out entirely, and he could not make clear sounds.

Shen Luo only glanced once before being pushed forward, the increasingly urgent “um-hum” sound echoing behind him.

Separated by several cages, Shen Luo saw more and more people imprisoned. Few among them had intact bodies. They were all as ragged as beggars and emaciated.

However, in the later hundreds of cages, it was not people but old, decrepit monkeys who were locked up. Most of them were wearing worn-out clothes, and some could even vaguely see rusty, broken armor on their bodies.

Arriving at the back of the cave, the little demon stopped Shen Luo in front of an individual prison enclosed by iron bars. Using a token to open the prison prohibition, he shoved him inside.

After Shen Luo staggered, he managed to steady himself and saw that seven or eight people were also locked up in this cell.

Unlike the people in the previous iron cages, these individuals were cleanly dressed, and although their complexion was slightly pale, they generally looked healthy. If it weren't for the fact they were here, one couldn't tell they were prisoners.

However, most of them were indifferent. They glanced at Shen Luo and then looked away. Some closed their eyes to rest, and some went right to sleep.

“Oh, finally there's someone else tied up by the Golden Rope.” A hoarse voice spoke from the darkness.

Following the sound, Shen Luo saw that a short old man in a grey robe was sitting cross-legged on the ground, looking up at him.

“My fellow Daoist here, may I know your name?” A young man with a clean face in a brocade robe came forward and asked.

“I am Shen Luo. May I know who all of you are…” Shen Luo was intercepted before he could finish speaking.

“What's the point of knowing this, we are all Medicine People, we are all going to die sooner or later.” The man shouted with a nonchalant tone.

“Medicine People?” Shen Luo was taken aback.

“You've just been caught, haven't you? You don't know yet that the Green Bull Beast loves Alchemy. We are kept here to serve as Medicine People for his alchemy experiments.” The brocade-robed young man explained.

Shen Luo suddenly remembered that Xin Hu had mentioned something about a Flesh Pill earlier?

“Oh yes, my name is Qilianmi and I am a Wusun from the Western Regions,” the brocade-robed young man added.

“Brother Qilian, do you know who else is imprisoned here?” Shen Luo couldn't return the courtesy because he was bound by the Golden Rope, so he simply nodded and asked.

“Most of those in this cave are scattered monks from various places and the monkeys from Flower Fruit Mountain who refused to surrender to the demons. Additionally, some ordinary people from Aolai Kingdom are kept elsewhere as Blood Meals. It is also said that some Heavenly Immortals are imprisoned in other places,” Qilianmi explained.

“Aren't these monkeys always considered demons? Why wouldn't they submit to them?” Shen Luo asked, puzzled.

“I once heard an old horse monkey mention that in their hearts, they only recognize the Great Sage Equal to Heaven as their king. They would rather die than acknowledge the Blue Bull Spirit as their king. The Blue Bull Spirit seems to have some grudge against the Great Sage and is particularly cruel to Flower Fruit Mountain. After killing wave after wave of monkeys on the mountain, he finally forced some monkeys to surrender, and the rest were locked up here, to be tortured over time,” Qilianmi explained.

Upon hearing this, Shen Luo couldn't help but feel sympathy for those monkeys.
