Chapter 2161: The Soul Master
After a few polite words, Lord Huoyan waved his hand, and the three monks from the afternoon group stood up directly and walked towards the main hall. They opened the heavy door of the main hall with a creak, and saw nothing inside. , the three monks gained the courage to enter it. After dozens of breaths, one of them returned to the door and said to Lord Huoyan: "Senior, this hall looks very small from the outside, but it is amazingly big inside, and it is divided into There are countless spaces with criss-crossing roads. It would be impossible for the three of us to search them all in just one year. Can we send more people in to help search? "
Lord Huoyan couldn't help but feel in trouble. This situation was really difficult to deal with. If he sent too few people, he would not be able to investigate. If he sent more people, he would be afraid that the enemy would be ambushing him outside. If the people outside were killed, they would dismantle the layout they had just laid out. With the isolation formation, the people inside were completely shut down and beaten.
After pondering for a moment, Venerable Huoyan said to the crowd: "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't catch the tiger's cubs. This hall is impossible if you don't enter it. Venerable Tongyou and I each brought twenty-four god-transformation monks into the formation. To completely destroy Zhuge Qianji’s lair, the Thousand Souls Absolute Array needs Venerable Bone Corrosion to preside over it. You should stay outside with the remaining monks and don’t let anyone destroy the array. If anything happens, call the police immediately.”
If we want to solve the matter here as soon as possible, we can only arrange it like this. Then Venerable Huoyan began to allocate manpower. Eleven Nether Clan God-Transformation Monks left three for Venerable Bone Corrosion. The Spirit Clan monks left The six people left behind the sub-group leader Chisha and the other two group members, as well as Huamian Granny and Qingyang from the ugly group. The others all followed Lord Huoyan and Lord Tongyou into the formation.
Venerable Huoyan naturally had his reasons for this arrangement, but the personnel were completely disrupted. Only Hua Mian Granny and Qing Yang remained outside in the ugly group. Yuanbao Tongzi, Yang Chi, and Yang Mei all needed to enter the formation again, but This was arranged jointly by the three monks who refined the void, and it was useless to object.
After the arrangements were made, Venerable Huoyan and Venerable Tongyou entered the hall with more than 40 god-transformation monks, while the rest stayed outside to guard the formation. Venerable Bone-Crossing did not leave everyone idle. Instead, the eight god-transformation monks were divided into two groups, taking turns to patrol the surroundings.
Qingyang and Granny Hua Mian were assigned to the first group. They and the other two dispersed around dozens of miles, checking whether there was any movement in the mines, searching for any abnormalities in every corner, and even released their spiritual thoughts to carefully Check the ground and the air to see if anyone is hiding in the dark.
For twelve consecutive hours, everything around them was normal. Another group came to replace them. Qingyang, Hua Mian Granny and others returned to the entrance of the hall to rest. Lord Bone Erosion also meditated and adjusted his breath here, occasionally checking Qianling Wanjue. There was no change in the situation of the formation. It seemed that Venerable Huoyan and the others were making smooth progress in the main hall, so Qingyang and Hua Mian Granny also sat down nearby.
In the blink of an eye, it was twelve hours again, and it was time for their inspection again. Qingyang finished his meditation and was about to call Granny Huamian to replace the other group. Suddenly, he heard a scream not far away, and everyone couldn't help but change their faces. Because the voice was very familiar, it was from another group of monks.
What was supposed to come came anyway. Venerable Bone Erosion was the first to stand up from the ground and ran wildly in the direction of the sound. Granny Hua Mian, Qing Yang and others followed closely behind. After a series of rapid movements, everyone came When we arrived at the place where the accident occurred, it was only a dozen miles away from the entrance of the main hall where they were meditating.
There was only a pool of blood at the place where the accident occurred. Chisha and another team member were checking the situation. When they saw Lord Bone Erosion, they rushed to greet him. Before he could speak, Lord Bone Erosion asked first, "What's going on?"
Chisha said: "The four of us are here in pairs to check the situation. Because the distance is relatively close, the two of us rushed over immediately after hearing the call, but it was still a step too late. We only found one here. There were traces of blood, but the other two people were nowhere to be found, and they were probably killed. "
Venerable Bone Erosion frowned and said: "They were in a group of two, but there was only one scream just now, which shows that they did not react at all when the first person had an accident, and they only had time to let out a scream when the second person had an accident. Having eliminated two late-stage god-transformation monks in such a short period of time, the attacker’s strength is at least at the Void Refining Realm. It seems that the person we are waiting for is here.”
Everyone knows who Venerable Bone Corrosion is talking about. The other party's purpose is not only to kill people, but also to destroy the formation. This will inevitably lead to being lured away from the mountain. They must rush back to the formation as soon as possible. There is obviously no need to save those two people. Bone Corrosion The Venerable made a prompt decision and retreated to the entrance of the hall with the remaining six people.
It only took a cup of tea to go back and forth, but there was already one more person at the door of the hall. A thin old man was hidden in a black mist. He was observing the formations arranged outside the hall. He saw Lord Bone Corrosion returning. , the skinny old man said in a hoarse voice: "It's actually the Bone Corrosion Taoist from Jiming Mountain who is here. No wonder he can restrain my formation with a simple formation."
Hearing that the other party knew him, Lord Bone Corrosion asked in surprise: "Who are you?"
The skinny old man dispersed some of the black fog on his head, revealing a face that looked like a skeleton, and then said with a smile: "It's true that noble people forget things so much that they don't even recognize their old friends?"
Although the skinny old man's face was still mostly obscured by the black mist, Lord Bone Corrosion recognized who he was and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Venerable Corpse Soul, you are actually still alive."
The skinny old man Jiejie laughed twice and said: "I wonder if you can still recognize me. To be more precise, I am just Lord Soul. I didn't expect that we would have to deal with each other again today after not seeing each other for hundreds of years."
The Corpse Soul Venerable was a cultivator of the Nether Clan of Jiming Mountain. They were two very special people. They were originally a cultivator of the Spirit Clan with excellent qualifications. They were killed in a revenge killing in an excellent Yin vein near Jiming Mountain. By chance, the corpse and the soul both developed independent consciousness and practiced successfully, entering the realm of refining emptiness. The corpse is called the Corpse Venerable and the soul is called the Soul Venerable. Because they are both from the same corpse and practiced together, the two are connected in mind and cooperate tacitly. They are extremely good at fighting together. They can even merge into one, doubling their strength, and are called Corpse Soul Venerable.
Venerable Corpse Soul is also a famous figure in Jiming Mountain. The combined strength of the two is tyrannical, and most people dare not provoke them easily. However, hundreds of years ago, Venerable Corpse Soul offended the boss of Jiming Mountain, so he was besieged by several Nether Clan's Void Refining Monks. It was said that he was blown to pieces. Unexpectedly, this Soul Venerable was not dead and appeared here. If Venerable Corpse was also alive, things would be difficult to deal with. Hundreds of years ago, the two of them were already Void Refining Monks. They could defeat someone at the second level of Void Refining when they joined forces. Now, hundreds of years have passed, and their strength must be even stronger. I am afraid I can't deal with it.
