Cultivation! My Augmented Statuses Have Unlimited Duration Chapter 522

Chapter 522: Sufferer, Qiu Shui (1)
“Bring me to see that son of yours.”
Whether it was a human, ghost, demon, or devil, he naturally had to see it with his own eyes to confirm.
Moreover, it was born with this extraordinary white dog.
If it was not a melodramatic plot like the Minotaur, then it might be a companion spirit pet similar to a life companion artifact.
There were all kinds of strange things in the world, right?
When he heard Jiang Li’s order, at the moment of life and death, this king no longer cared about the royal family’s reputation or his own feelings.
He did not dare to hesitate at all and brought Jiang Li towards the dungeon below the palace.
Due to Jiang Li’s order earlier, in order to gather a thousand souls, all the prisoners in this dungeon had been executed.
The dungeon became empty for once. The old king entered one of the cleaner cells. After removing the straw on the ground, a wooden trapdoor appeared below.
On the trapdoor, Buddhist scriptures were also written.
…
It was these scriptures that covered the eyes of the Hidden Rock cultivators, preventing them from discovering it.
It seemed that after this time, he had to find a probing spell technique for the people below to learn. Otherwise, he really could not do such a small thing well.
Jiang Li pulled open the trapdoor and followed the king inside.
Under this dungeon, there was a hidden dark cell modified from a sewer.
On the ground here, a layer of dirty water that reached the ankles was slowly flowing, indicating that this section of the sewer was still in use.
A few fat rats were not afraid of living people at all. They crawled leisurely in the darkness.
It was not until a ball of spirit fire lit up in Jiang Li’s hand that they were frightened to the point of running to a corner and burrowing into a hole to escape into the other sewers.
Urgh!
The king beside Jiang Li had clearly never been here before. He could not endure the stench in the environment and directly bent down to vomit.
This environment did not seem like a place where a person could survive.
However, Jiang Li could hear faint panting not far ahead.
With the help of the flames, Jiang Li saw clearly that at the end of the sewer cell, a thin figure was sitting upright in a rusty iron cage.
In such an environment, ordinary people would be locked up here for a month or so. Even if they were lucky enough to survive, their bodies would be crippled.
There were actually mortals who could grow up here.
“Lord, that… that’s my unfilial son.”
“He hasn’t died in ten years. He’s indeed a monster.”
“Back then, I was soft-hearted and spared the life of my unfilial son, making a huge mistake! Now, I’ll let Lord Immortal Master punish this child!”
This king’s mouth was still filled with disgust and rejection.
Even if this son was only alive, it still made him feel uncomfortable.
He should be feeling depressed. Why was this monstrous son still alive?
Even a vicious tiger would not eat its cubs, but this king’s mannerism was terrifyingly disgusting.
Jiang Li temporarily resisted the urge to slap him to death, and he raised the spirit fire and walked over to the iron cage.
In the cage sat a youth covered in mud and only a rag.
The youth’s hair was disheveled and his face was dirty. There were many scars on his body that had been bitten by rats. He was skin and bones, especially his left leg, which was deformed. It was as if the leg of a three-year-old child had grown on a thirteen-year-old youth.
Although Jiang Li was not a medical cultivator, he could still tell the reason for this abnormality with a single glance.
On the youth’s left leg, there was a very small metal shackle that was tightly holding his left leg. There was no room for blood circulation at all.
According to the king, this youth was now thirteen years old and had been locked up here ten years ago.
In other words, ten years ago, when this youth was three years old, he was put on an ankle chain and stuffed into a cage. Because he was bound, he could not grow and eventually became deformed.
It was hard to imagine how much pain this youth had endured in these ten years.
At this moment, there was a rustling sound. A moment later, a pile of wild vegetables, shattered bones, and swill flowed to the side of the iron cage.
It turned out that there was a hollow bamboo tube beside the iron cage that stretched down from somewhere above.
Every few days, when the higher-ups recalled it, they would pour some leftovers into the bamboo tube. Perhaps to the higher-ups, this bamboo tube was just meant for waste discharge.
This youth had relied on the leftovers to survive until today.
This kind of suffering was shocking.
At this moment, one of the Buddha hands of the Divine Statue clone moved, and the white dog soul that had already become obedient struggled again.
When Jiang Li saw that it was not ferocious, he tried to let go.
The white dog’s soul jumped to the water surface and sniffed the surrounding environment. Soon, it was attracted by the youth in the iron cage.
After running a few steps forward, its illusory body passed through the iron cage and entered the thin prince’s arms.
The youth finally moved at this moment.
His eyes were almost pure black. He had stayed in the darkness for ten years but had not lost his vision.
He reached out and hugged the puppy’s soul, as if he was gently stroking it.
Not only could he see, but he could also see souls.
Jiang Li was already certain that the person in front of him was the source of this country’s uniqueness.
He could see that there were no signs of cultivation on the other party’s body, but there was an extremely dense and pure spiritual qi hidden in his body.
If he had not consumed a natural treasure like the Nine Nether Earth Fruit, then the spiritual qi of heaven and earth must have spontaneously gathered and fused into his body.
