Chapter 462: Radical Soul Envoy
In a remote forest in the Black Horn Region, the sounds of monsters came and went.
The eyes of these monsters were red, and the fierce aura on their bodies was far beyond normal.
They were generally not of high level, mostly second- and third-level, and rarely appeared above the fourth level.
In the depths of the forest, the coldness permeated the air, making people feel particularly uncomfortable. This coldness was not physical coldness, but a deeper coldness that penetrated into the soul.
A hall built of black stone and dark gray metal was located in a clearing in the forest.
In front of the clearing, black metal pillars stood, and thick chains of the same color connected the pillars.
The chains and pillars formed complex patterns in a certain pattern, and together with the central hall, they faintly showed the momentum of a formation.
The door of the hall was ajar, and the area where the hall was located was the place with the strongest coldness.
In a room deep in the hall, a man in black robes casually untied the soul bag on his waist and threw it to an old man opposite.
After taking the soul bag, the old man opened it and glanced at it, with a look of surprise in his eyes:
"Xiao Protector, you seem to have gained a lot more recently than before."
Xiao Protector laughed: "Old Mu Zun, I recently recruited a good subordinate. He is very efficient. I plan to recommend him to officially join the Soul Hall and become a protector when he reaches Dou Zong."
The old man smiled: "Such a useful subordinate, why don't you keep him for a while? Let him create more value for you?"
Xiao Protector shook his head: "No, this will delay his development. I don't want him to hate me in the future."
While saying this, he also muttered in his heart: That kid is very evil. He is obviously a Dou Wang, but he keeps taking out the souls of Dou Huang. He is very powerful and murderous.
Elder Mu asked again: "How much contribution points did you take from him?"
"30%, what's wrong? Isn't that the rule?" Protector Xiao was puzzled.
Elder Soul Hall looked at Protector Xiao with a puzzled look and laughed:
"The rule is a rule, but few people abide by it. For most people, taking 50% is considered conscientious.
"Those soul envoys are not qualified to come to me for exchange. Some protectors will make some changes to the price of the items. In fact, the soul envoys may only get 10% or 20% of the things they can get. "
"Ah? This... Since Elder Mu knows all about it, why don't you take care of it?" Protector Xiao asked puzzledly.
Elder Mu smiled slightly and explained patiently:
"Why should I care? Soul envoys are the power developed by the protectors themselves. They basically choose those who have reached the end of their potential... It is convenient to control and will not backfire.
"Only a few people can be promoted from soul envoys to guardians. These few people will not affect the overall situation of my Soul Palace.
"After they are promoted, I will not care about any grudges between them and the original guardians. Let them solve it by themselves.
"I originally wanted to teach you these things after a while. What surprised me is that you actually developed your own subordinates without a teacher."
After a slight pause, Mu Zun Lao suddenly remembered that the guardian Xiao said that he would recommend him to the Soul Palace to become a formal guardian after his subordinate was promoted to Dou Zong. He said in surprise:
"You won't develop a very promising Dou Huang into a subordinate, right?"
The guardian Xiao nodded: "I can't say he has great potential... It should be said that it's a bit strange.
"He looks like a young man in his twenties. When I first met him, he was only at the peak of Dou Wang. Not long after, he became a Dou Huang.
"The key is that his fighting power is extraordinary. He has surrendered the souls of several Douhuangs. With his style of doing things, these people were probably killed by him.
"After entering Douhuang, he surrendered the souls of Douhuang more frequently."
Mu Zun Lao was silent for a while, and reminded him: "Since he is a potential soul envoy, you should treat him as before. It is also good to make a good relationship with him."
"Do you have a secret method to directly devour souls and improve strength?" asked the guardian owl.
Mu Zun Lao frowned: "Why are you asking this? This secret method has strong sequelae, although it can make people strong quickly in a short period of time.
"But it will make your Dou Qi mottled. After it is improved to a certain level, it will basically be impossible to continue to promote in the future.
"With your talent, it should not be a problem to cultivate to Douzun. If you use this secret method now, then the high-level Douzong will end."
Xiao Hufa shrugged: "I know the severity... This is not what I want, it is the soul envoy under my command."
"Didn't you say that he also has potential? He doesn't know the consequences? "Muzun Lao waved his hand, and a light screen was projected on the wall, on which there were various things that could be exchanged.
The Owl Guardian smiled lightly: "I told him, but he insisted on doing so... I don't need to persuade him, just respect his fate."
He stared at the exchange list displayed by Mu Zun Lao for a while, and chose a medium secret method.
"Well, the contribution points of the Soul Monger are still a little short, so I'll give him a pad first. Anyway, with that guy's style, he will probably have souls to surrender next time we meet."
The Owl Guardian muttered while pointing to one of the upper rows: "That's it!"
He took out two metal tokens, one of which was made of copper and the other of iron.
"Deduct the contribution points on this iron token first, and deduct the insufficient points from the copper token."
Muzunlao stretched out his hand and used his fighting spirit to pull the token to capture it. He took out a silver token and pasted it on the iron token while saying:
"That soul envoy is lucky to have met you."
After handing over his soul and exchanging what he wanted, Protector Xiao left the punishment hall.
A thick black mist emerged from his body, covering his whole body so that no one could see his human form. Then, he rushed into the sky and continued to sweep away into the distance.
…
Black Seal City is in a forest not far from the city gate.
Wearing a pointed soft hat, a monocle on his right eye, and a black classical robe, Amon casually withdrew his right hand from the heart of a fighting king.
The fighting king fell softly to the ground, and the warm blood stained the ground red. The frozen expression on the corpse still showed a bit of disbelief.
This is the clone of Amon that bears the mark of the Protector of Owl.
A faint black mist emerged from his hand. He bent slightly and patted the corpse's Tianling Cap, pulling out a dazed and frightened soul.
Around this corpse, there are several corpses scattered here and there, some of them fighting spirits, some of great fighting masters...
No matter how small the mosquitoes are, they are still meat. Based on the principle of not wasting, Amon collected their souls and bodies one by one.
"Jie, Jie, Jie... Menghunzhao, you are really diligent in your work." The familiar voice of Protector Xiao came from the sky.
But when he saw Amon's appearance, his body suddenly stiffened...
On the back of Amon's black robe, there is a big white word "soul" written on it.
Are you afraid that others won't know that you are from the Soul Palace?
Amon smiled and took out a handkerchief to wipe off the blood on his hands:
"I also want to save enough contribution points to exchange for the secret technique I want as soon as possible."
"I've already brought it to you. Your contribution points are still a little short, so I'll give them to you first." Protector Xiao threw the secret scroll to Amon.
Amon bowed slightly and said politely: "Thank you, Protector Xiao."
Then, he handed over his soul palace: "This is what I have gained during this period of time."
Protector Xiao took a look, good guy, there are three Dou Huang souls again!
He advised him in a routine manner: "You don't have to use such a high frequency to collect souls... Cultivation is not something that happens overnight."
