"No...impossible, right? Second Elder, you...you are joking, right?"
The tall and thin old man heard the exclamations of the people next to him, and the angry look on his face suddenly froze. He turned his head extremely stiffly to look at the short and fat old man, and asked with a trembling voice.
His eyes were staring at the short, fat old man's face full of flesh at this moment, trying to see some joking expression on his face. However, to his disappointment, the look of horror on the short, fat old man's face at this moment was... Jue's expression didn't look fake at all, which immediately made his heart sink to the bottom.
Over the years, almost all the major events in the entire northwest continent were caused by the Hades Palace. As one of the most powerful Dou Zun forces in the northwest continent, it is naturally impossible for the Tian She Mansion not to pay attention to these matters.
Especially back then, the Lord of the Underworld Palace, Lord Ghost, used his incomparable terrifying talent to single-handedly wipe out the highest combat power of the major forces that surrounded the Underworld Palace. Even the powerful Dou Zun warriors were no exception. When this news was first sent out, the entire northwest continent was filled with silence.
At first, many people couldn't believe that the previously fierce and terrifying coalition forces, which could destroy cities and annihilate countries with just a single movement of their hands, were actually slaughtered cleanly by a Ghost Lord!
However, after Hades Palace completely occupied the mountain gates of the previously invading forces with lightning speed, everyone had to accept the reality. For a time, all the top forces in the northwest continent were worried about the person they had never met before. The master of the Underworld Palace, Venerable Ghost Soul, felt an emotion called fear in his heart.
At that time, the master of the Tian She Mansion fell silent after hearing the news about the Hades Palace. The second elder had followed the master for many years. The master usually had a confident smile on his face, chatting and laughing. He is able to make various decisions in a short time, as if he is confident about everything, and the decisions he makes have never disappointed anyone.
However, that time, the second elder saw such an expression on the palace master's face for the first time, and the helplessness and powerlessness was revealed between his eyebrows. Although the second elder was surprised by the palace master's expression at that time, but then he That is to say, it is clear that when a person's strength reaches a certain level, it is no longer something that can be dealt with by some ridiculous tactics. The strength displayed by the Ghost Lord is indeed powerless and despairing. .
Then, after being silent for a long time, the head of the Heavenly Snake Mansion issued an oral order.
"No one in the Heavenly Snake Mansion is allowed to provoke anyone from the Underworld Palace. Anyone who violates this will be subject to the rules of the Mansion!"
In this way, the Heavenly Snake Mansion, like other forces, shrunk its sphere of influence, intending to temporarily avoid the limelight of the Hades Palace.
But before that, when he was at Tian Snake Mansion, Qing Lin proposed to go to Canaan College in the Black Horn Territory to look for Xiao Yan.
As soon as Qing Lin said this, he was immediately opposed by all the elders. Even the master of the palace, who had always responded to Qing Lin's requests, frowned, and the implication was that he did not agree with Qing Lin's decision.
If it were before, no one would have raised objections to Qinglin's request. The original Black Horn Territory was a paradise for the strong, a paradise for sins, and a hell for the weak. With the power of the Sky Snake Mansion, it was enough to sweep away the black horns. Everything within the angular domain.
But today is different from the past. At this moment, the Black Corner Region has evolved into a real hell in the eyes of all the remaining top forces and top experts in the entire northwest continent. Everyone is afraid of avoiding it. He would fall into the bottomless abyss and be doomed, but Qinglin still wanted to plunge into it.
Qing Lin's move was entirely to put himself in danger for a man who was of absolutely no value to the Tian She Mansion. This was completely unacceptable to the elders who valued the Blue Snake's Three Flower Pupils extremely highly.
However, Qing Lin's determination is so firm that she even threatens the elders present with self-destruction. These elders are also very aware of the importance of Xiao Yan in Qing Lin's heart. Even these days, no matter how outstanding and handsome the man is arranged for her , an extremely talented man, Qing Lin wouldn't even take a look at him, all he cared about was Xiao Yan.
So they also knew that Qing Lin was not just saying harsh words. If Xiao Yan really couldn't be found, she might really do such a move. This also made the elders present very helpless. After all, her eyes It grows on Qing Lin's body, and they can't keep an eye on her all the time. If Qing Lin is really determined, there is really nothing they can do against Qing Lin.
Suddenly, not only the elders, but also the master of the Heavenly Snake Mansion were in trouble, and their eyebrows were tightly knitted together.
But in the end, the head of the Heavenly Snake Mansion still sighed and agreed with Qinglin's decision. Although the Black Horn Territory is the stronghold of the Hades Palace, the Black Horn Territory is vast and the forces within it are even more complicated. The rise of the Hades Palace The time is too short. Even if the strength is enough to crush, it will be difficult to integrate the entire Black Angle Domain in such a short period of time.
Moreover, they only go to Canaan College to ask for someone. As long as they pay attention, there should be no problems.
As for the Naganan Academy that was vaguely spread in the northwest continent and seemed to have a special relationship with the Hades Palace, the Lord of the Heavenly Snake Mansion directly filtered it into rumors, which was pure bullshit.
Just kidding, judging from the previous information, the master of Hades Palace is definitely a ruthless and cruel person, and the name of Hades Palace does not sound like a serious place. On the other hand, Naganan College is just a teacher. In the place where people are educated, the strongest combat power shown outside is only the Great Elder, who is just a Dou Zong. It doesn’t look like he can have anything to do with the Hades Palace. Even those elders are like the master of the palace. Think so.
But although the master of the palace didn't care much about the mere Canaan Academy, for the sake of safety, he still sent the second elder and the third elder of the Tian Shen Palace to Yu Qinglin to prevent any unexpected situation, that is, the short and fat old man With a tall, thin old man.
At this moment, the hearts of these two people were filled with coldness. They had no idea what kind of virtue this Canaan Academy was and how it could be related to the Hades Palace, or even the most terrifying existence in the Hades Palace. However, now they no longer have any idea. I'm in the mood to consider these things.
Because at this moment, the whole body of Hun Changqing has begun to continuously overflow with wisps of rich and pure black mist. These black mist are slowly drifting towards the two of them at an unhurried speed. Two deep and dark black locks emerged from the middle, making a "clatter" sound and rushing towards the two of them.
The two of them looked at the black mist and the strange black locks that were shrouding them, and felt the evil and cold aura emanating from the black mist, which made them feel extremely depressed and desperate. Only one word appeared in my mind, and that was "Run!"
The two men suddenly turned around at almost the same time, almost using the fastest speed in their lives, and flew towards the distance.
At this moment, they didn't even care about Qing Lin, who was kneeling at Hun Changqing's feet, covering his left eye and moaning in pain.
Although the Green Snake and Three Flower Pupils are indeed extremely rare and can only be found once in hundreds of years, and it is even more difficult to search for them in the barren land of the Northwest Continent, but the Heavenly Snake Mansion has been searching for them for so long anyway. , at worst they will have to search for a few more years, and if they continue to stay now, their lives will be in trouble. No matter how precious the Blue Snake Three Flower Pupils are, it cannot be compared with their lives.
Besides, this time it was Qing Lin who wanted to die on his own. He just wanted to come to the Black Corner Territory, but he preferred to die. He was about to leave just now, but Qing Lin even called him back to take action against him. , then if this is the case, Qinglin should still bear this crime himself.
However, the two of them had never seen Hun Changqing take action. They only knew that Hun Changqing's strength was very terrifying, but they had no idea of how terrifying it was. At this moment, they were running away quickly and had already thought about how to return. How were they going to explain Qinglin's matter to the Palace Master after they arrived at the Tian Snake Mansion? But then they discovered that the cold and depressing feeling not only did not fade away because of their escape, but instead became stronger and stronger. They were suddenly shocked, and a thick haze filled their hearts.
The two men turned around in panic, and saw that the seemingly slow-moving black mist was actually like tarsal maggots, following closely behind them, and the black ropes were like the scythes of the Soul-Seducer. It's like a hook, and you can't get rid of it at all. You can only watch it continue to approach you, unable to resist at all.
"no, do not want!"
The two of them looked at the inevitable black mist and let out horrified wails. They could not imagine what would happen to them after being touched by the black mist. However, no matter how desperate they were, no one could Can make the slightest response to their wails.
In a moment, under the horrified gazes of the two men, the thick black mist completely submerged their figures. At the same time, the black lock penetrated their heads directly, followed by two shrill and frightening screams. The cry of despair came out violently from the black mist, and gathered into one stream, soaring straight into the sky, almost tearing the sky.
This shrill sound lasted for a long time before gradually fading away. Then Hun Changqing gently raised his finger, and the black mist in the distance was captured by him with a "crash" sound of black locks colliding. Hun Changqing stretched out his arms, grabbed the two black chains, and pulled them outwards. Suddenly the black chains were pulled out of the black mist by Hun Changqing, and when the black chains were completely pulled out of the black mist, After escaping from the mist, you can see that two illusory souls are still bound at the tip of the black lock.
Hun Changqing took off the ball of soul hanging on the black lock, put it in his hand, played with it, and then suddenly showed a satisfied smile.
"Yes, the fighting spirit at the peak of Douzong and the soul realm at the peak of Mortal Realm, and the excellent materials of Yin Demon. It seems that the practice of Tianshe Mansion is also closely related to the strength of the soul. Otherwise, even if it is at the peak of Douzong It is relatively rare to refine one's soul to this level."
Hun Changqing thought secretly in his heart, and gave this soul a ray of Taiyin Qi, and put it back into the ring. Then he looked at another group of souls. Just for a moment, Hun Changqing frowned slightly. He took off the soul, held it with his hand, and put it in front of him. Hun Changqing put his head close to the soul and sniffed it gently. , and then he snorted coldly.
"Hmph, it smells like medicine residue, and the elixirs used are all of inferior quality. The residue has eroded the soul into disarray. It is such an inferior soul. It is not even qualified to be refined into a Yin Demon by me. "
Hun Changqing muttered dissatisfiedly. As his strength continues to improve, he has gradually become more demanding on the materials for making Yin Demon. Obviously, the soul of the third elder at this moment cannot meet his expectations.
"That's all, this soul will be of use to you."
Hun Changqing sighed softly, then stretched out his hand again and grabbed the black mist before. The main soul, which exuded bright silver light and had red eyes, was like two huge lanterns. Changqing pulled it out.
At the moment when the main soul appeared, the temperature in the entire area suddenly dropped sharply, reaching an extreme low point. The strong killing intent also rushed out of the main soul crazily at this moment, almost all of which was about to turn into substance. , murderous intent accompanied by the dark wind, howling crazily between the heaven and the earth.
Then under the horrified eyes of countless people, Hun Changqing threw the inferior soul of the third elder in his hand to the main soul. When he saw the main soul of the soul, a touch of humanity suddenly appeared in his scarlet eyes. With a look of surprise and joy on his face, the main soul quickly activated his own energy and pulled the soul in front of him. Then he opened an illusory mouth, bit the soul in one bite, and put it in his mouth. Started chewing.
After swallowing with a "Gulu" sound, the main soul stopped chewing, and there was a look of satisfaction on the illusory face.
After seeing this horrific scene, everyone present felt a pain in their minds and chills all over their bodies. Moreover, at the moment when the soul was swallowed, they even faintly heard an extremely miserable cry. The soul The more powerful the person is, the more clearly they feel the cry. Although Soul Changqing is stripping away the soul stones of the two elders of Tian She Mansion and has erased their consciousness at the same time, their consciousness disappeared. , but the instinct is still there, and the pain caused by swallowing the soul alive can definitely be regarded as the ultimate punishment in this world.
