Ling Kong, Jiang Bumin, and the villagers were all imprisoned in the dungeon of Chongxu Mountain. The one responsible for guarding the dungeon was Jue Wu, the master of Kun Ba.
Jue Wu did not stand guard at the dungeon at all hours, for these prisoners had all been sealed; even if the dungeon gates were thrown wide open, they would be unable to escape. Furthermore, it never occurred to him that any member of the human race could infiltrate the sacred grounds of Chongxu Mountain. In his eyes, this was the territory of the Soul Clan, and even if the Heaven-Exterminating Sect were granted ten times their courage, they would not dare to come here. In fact, he actually hoped the Heaven-Exterminating Sect would show up so he could wipe them out in one fell swoop.
After learning of these circumstances, Jiang Chen did not act rashly but instead focused on healing his wounds in peace. It took him several thousand years to gradually recover—or so it appeared. Since he had to play the part, he had to do it convincingly. Once he left his room, he began to wander about at will. As he walked, he eventually arrived at the location of the dungeon.
