Once he returned to Paperman Peak this time, he would completely imprison the boy.

As for the boy escaping, that was impossible.

He had placed two tracking restrictions and had even bound the boy in the "Ice Hell" in advance.

The "Ice Hell" was famously created by a Sect Leader of the Puppet Sect, who excelled at Artifact Refining. This Sect Leader used the "Ice Hell" to wreak havoc, dominate the Three Kingdoms, seize the Profound Vein, and establish the Puppet Sect at the core of the Three Kingdoms as its dominator.

Unfortunately, the "Ice Hell" was destroyed in an accident.

Later, the Peak Master of Mechanical Peak used the damaged "Ice Hell" as raw material, pondered for a long time, and either repaired it or made it into a high-quality imitation.

This imitation ended up in his master’s hands.

Ice Hell, comprising four bracelets, was crafted as four distinct types.

The lower three bracelets, named the "Cold Prison Floating Life Bracelet," each refined with Divine Souls, could imprison many Divine Souls, continuously nurturing the soul of the bracelet bearer.

Most of these Divine Souls were from disciples at the Refining Profound Level, either from Loose Cultivators, other sects, or even within their own sect...

Above the three bracelets was a master bracelet named the "Cold Ice Hell Bracelet," which his master wielded back then.

The lower three bracelets imprisoned Divine Souls to nurture themselves, but everything they absorbed had to be offered to the master bracelet’s holder.

Gu Huangzi saw through this and knew that if he didn’t strike back, he would surely become nourishment for his master.

Hence, he seized an opportunity to betray and overthrow his master.

Now, as fate turned, it was his turn to bestow the "Cold Prison Floating Life Bracelet," one of which he gave to Song Yan.

As a former owner of the "Cold Prison Floating Life Bracelet," Gu Huangzi naturally knew how terrifying this bracelet was and had absolute confidence.

Back then, even after he seized a once-in-a-lifetime chance to kill his master, he barely succeeded with nine out of ten chances leading to death.

What power or competence did Song Yan have to break the situation?

Even if he fled thousands of miles away, as long as he remained in the "Ice Hell," in life, he would be Gu Huangzi’s man; in death, he would be Gu Huangzi’s ghost.

As he was contemplating, Gu Huangzi suddenly felt a burning sensation on his wrist.

He introspected his Divine Soul and glanced into the Ice Hell, only to see an anomaly in the prison where "Song Yan" was held.

The dark mist was dispersed by scorching Qi Blood, revealing a brightly lit path, clearly visible from top to bottom.

"Crimson Palace?"

Gu Huangzi’s expression abruptly solidified.

The Elder said solemnly, "Shouldn’t he have been closely watched by you?"

Gu Huangzi no longer concealed the truth and said directly, "I had a close disciple watching him and withdrew early from the Cold Pool Valley Market. But since he has broken through to the Crimson Palace Realm, my close disciple must already be dead. Now, I also do not know where he is."

The Elder pondered for a moment and said, "To be honest, it was also you acknowledging him as a disciple and claiming he was an informant from our Nanwu Sword Sect that led us to investigate him. In fact, there is no record of him in our sect. I thought he was a covert agent..."

Gu Huangzi paused, his face alternating between dark and light, then coldly stated, "Find him first!"

...

...

Whew~~~

In the time it took for Song Yan to take a deep breath, he had already devoured the terrifying Yin Souls from that cage.

Looking again at his arms, the dark patterns had already become a blurred mosaic, each resembling a writhing ghost.

With a thought, he stirred his Qi and blood.

On his left arm, the last tracking restriction left by Gu Huangzi was burned away and instantly vanished.
