Chapter 685 Soul Magic, Soul Search
"Hmph, trying to pull off an airstrike!"
Yao Haoxuan, with his sharp eyes, spotted the bat-man leader mixed among the ice pillars and meteors. His fifth spirit ring shone behind him, and two streams of energy flowed between his hands, causing them to bulge and clasp together forcefully.
A massive shockwave was unleashed by Yao Haoxuan in his giant form.
With his precise control of power, the shockwave was like a giant spear, sending the bat-man leader flying and crashing into the ice pillars and fire meteors.
"leader!"
The bat-men, locked in fierce combat, roared in anger, trying to break free, but were engulfed by a dense barrage of ice pillars and fire meteors.
The continuous bombardment and explosions resounded in their ears, and the scattered fireballs and the groups of ice pillars carrying a deadly chill became their fatal threat.
"This place is sealed off!"
The bat-man leader crashed through a house like a sparrow whose feathers had been burned off.
No wonder they dared to use such dazzling soul skills so openly!
"Leader! What do we do!" A bat-man covered in blood rushed over and asked.
"What else can we do! This place is sealed off! If we don't kill them all, none of us will escape!"
The bat-man leader scrambled to his feet, trying to run away, but bumped into the wall.
"Those guys underground haven't come out for so long, we can't count on them anymore. We have to rely on ourselves. Take out your Bloodlust Pills!"
"But leader, consuming the Bloodthirsty Pill will devour half of the life force we've accumulated through arduous cultivation!"
Enraged, the bat-man leader slapped his subordinate across the face. "Damn it! You're about to die and you're still clinging to the life force you've extracted? If you don't fight to the death, you'll just be clinging to your worthless thing and going to your grave!"
Then, an extremely piercing but rhythmic squeak came from the bat-man leader's mouth.
The bat-like creatures, struggling to withstand the attacks from Ye Nanxiao and the others, tore open their chests, pulled out a red marble, and swallowed it whole.
The insect-wielding evil spirit masters also erupted, knowing that it was a signal that the Bloodthirsty Bat Organization was fighting to the death.
"Nanxiao, it looks like they're about to unleash their full power!" Yao Haoxuan looked down at the group of bat-men, clearly seeing their movements.
"This is the moment we've been waiting for!" Ye Nanxiao's eyes narrowed as he said to Ling Luochen, "Senior, make your move!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Nanxiao slapped the ground with both hands, and an ice pillar rose up from beneath his feet.
Using the icicles as a tool, Ye Nanxiao leaped into the air.
"Senior Haoxuan!"
Yao Haoxuan immediately understood, and reached his right hand under Ye Nanxiao. After Ye Nanxiao stood on it, he forcefully threw him towards the fire phoenix that Ma Xiaotao had transformed into.
The phoenix spread its wings and embraced Ye Nanxiao.
A purple light shone from the fire phoenix's chest, and then the raging flames on the fire phoenix's body quickly transformed into ice flames with a terrifying chill.
The ice phoenix cried out, its azure phoenix eyes looking at Ling Luochen.
Ling Luochen nodded emphatically, her hands constantly changing hand seals, and the ice staff burst forth with intense light in front of her.
An endless chill swept over the area like a tidal wave, and the frost that had previously fallen to the ground seemed to be summoned, expanding and growing in the blink of an eye.
The icy forest reappeared, and ice spikes that grew out of thin air pierced and imprisoned the insect-spirited evil soul masters whose combat power was extremely weak. Even though the insects were able to dodge the huge and sharp ice spikes, they themselves became targets, and the ice spikes, whose power suddenly increased, skewered them like meat skewers.
The icy flames attached to the frost instantly devoured most of the insect-type evil spirit masters, turning them into ice sculptures.
The swarm of insects, which was originally like a black storm, was entangled by ice flames and turned into ice crystals, which were then burned into nothingness.
"A great opportunity!"
The fourth and sixth spirit rings behind Yao Haoxuan lit up together, and energy flowed through his thick and huge right arm, which was then coated with a metallic film.
"Boom Fist!"
The enormous energy fist, like a meteorite falling from the sky, smashed through the swarm of insects that were still resisting the ice flames, landing directly in the group of insect martial soul evil soul masters, exploding a large patch of flesh and blood.
Ling Luochen, wielding the staff of ice element, unleashed a gust of freezing wind that shattered the flying evil soul master's body into dust. "Haoxuan!"
"Hey, sorry, I didn't expect those insect-manipulating evil soul masters to be so weak." Yao Haoxuan raised his hand and slapped several bat-men into the icy forest.
The previous attacks of ice pillars and fire meteor showers had depleted most of the soul power of the two groups of evil soul masters, and the sudden growth of the ice and snow forest directly reduced the number of the two groups of evil soul masters.
Caught like turtles in a jar, the two groups of evil spirit masters were quickly killed by the four, and their corpses were frozen into dust and then burned clean.
"Elder Xuan is still down there!" Yao Haoxuan said, his body gradually shrinking until he was the same height as Ye Nanxiao. "Shall we help Elder Xuan this afternoon?"
The Fire Girl frowned slightly, seemingly deep in thought, but in reality, Ma Xiaotao was asking Ye Nanxiao a question.
"No need, he should have finished fighting a long time ago. He's probably squatting down there drinking and watching us."
Upon hearing this, Ling Luochen and Yao Haoxuan exchanged a glance and silently stood beside the Fire Maiden, surrounding the large hole that Elder Xuan had created.
After the previous battle, the entrance to the cave had already collapsed.
After Ye Nanxiao finished speaking, the collapsed hole was slowly pushed open by a surge of energy.
The unharmed Elder Xuan jumped out, dragging a half-dead middle-aged man with him.
"Tsk, I wanted to see how much progress you've made during this time. Sure enough, spending too much time with you has filled my pockets with melon seeds." Old Xuan chuckled, tossed the middle-aged man on the ground, and took out his wine flask to enjoy a hearty drink.
"This person?" The Fire Woman tossed a small spark of ice flame onto the middle-aged man's forehead.
"An unknown evil spirit master, his title seems to be something like Yellow Scorpion? Oh well, he's an evil spirit master who's not even at the Super Douluo level, he should still be breathing. Why don't you see if you can get anything out of him?" Elder Xuan said.
"Wow! Wen Xing! Nan Xiao, you even know this?!" Yao Haoxuan's body trembled, as if he had thought of something unpleasant.
The Fire Maiden transformed back into two people, Ma Xiaotao and Ling Luochen, who were also looking at Ye Nanxiao.
They had only heard of torture and forced confessions, but they also knew how bloody those words were.
"Xiao Xiaozi, when did you learn this?" Ma Xiaotao asked, frowning slightly.
Knowing that Ma Xiaotao disliked anything too gory, Ye Nanxiao comforted her, saying, "What I know might be a little different from what you imagine, but this method is very gentle, even gentler than the fishmonger at RT-Mart who's been killing fish for twenty years!"
The latest novel is first published here!
After saying that, Ye Nanxiao walked to the middle-aged man, squatted down, and gently pressed his hand on the man's head.
After turning his back to Ma Xiaotao and the others, a gray light flashed in Ye Nanxiao's eyes.
Show me your soul!
The soul magic instantly invaded the middle-aged man's body, revealing his soul.
Looking at the soul that had transformed into Xiao Hei, even though Ye Nanxiao had expected it, he was still shocked.
The soul displayed by the middle-aged evil spirit master was an unusually viscous black, like the most foul-smelling sludge from a sewer. Ye Nanxiao could even faintly smell a nauseating stench.
How many heinous and cruel things have they done to living beings!
"I initially thought this magic would be cruel, but now it seems there's a reason why cruel magic can be created." Ye Nanxiao chuckled self-deprecatingly, his eyes instantly turning cold.
"Soul Search".
A bell, seemingly from hell, rang out, and the middle-aged man's soul trembled violently as if it had sensed the most terrifying thing in the world, followed by madness.
Ye Nanxiao stripped the middle-aged man of his soul's voice, enjoying the ferocity of the evil soul master's soul before its death.
Since ancient times, evil people have always been punished by evil people. Magic such as Soul Searching Technique, which is marked as cruel, is just a relatively common magic in Electrox's teachings.
Forcibly extracting memories from a soul can cause irreversible damage to the brain. At best, it can lead to dementia, at least keeping the person alive. At worst, it can shatter the brain, giving the person a taste of brain reconstruction.
"City Lord's Mansion, Resentful Douluo and Heart-Breaking Douluo, Town Refining Plan, Hundred Ghosts Soul Refining Array, Seven-Day Slaughter Plan."
Ye Nanxiao's expression grew increasingly cold, his fox eyes swirling with a scarlet light, as if blood were surging within them, and he seemed ready to shed tears of blood at any moment.
After what felt like about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Ye Nanxiao patted his bottom, stood up, closed his eyes, and turned to face everyone.
"What happened to your eyes?" Ma Xiaotao walked over and asked, taking Ye Nanxiao's hand.
Ye Nanxiao shook his head slightly and said, "I just saw some cringe-worthy things. I didn't expect that there would actually be people who like being ridden by tanks and would moan so ecstatically."
Of everyone present, only Ma Xiaotao instantly understood Ye Nanxiao's meaning. She immediately raised her hand to cover Ye Nanxiao's mouth, a look of embarrassment on her face.
"What's wrong, Sister Tao?" Yao Haoxuan, who had turned back into a little boy, asked with his eyes wide open, his eyes full of curiosity and innocence.
"It's nothing, kids don't need to understand these things!" Ma Xiaotao glared at Ye Nanxiao and punched him on the shoulder with her embroidered fist. "Get to the point!"
Yao Haoxuan smiled helplessly, "But I'm already twenty-five, almost twenty-six! I just look younger!"
Besides Ma Xiaotao, who knew Ye Nanxiao best, Elder Xuan also noticed something was off about Ye Nanxiao.
Strange, mixed red and white liquid was flowing from the middle-aged man's nostrils, and his pupils were trembling violently, as if he were enduring immense pain.
"This town, Ningcheng, along with the four surrounding smaller towns, has been used by evil spirit masters as a great array. Ningcheng is the array's core, with the aim of refining all the people in the five towns, killing them, and transforming them into vengeful spirits."
"They came prepared. The city lord's mansion has been taken over. A large number of fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells have been buried throughout the city. They are triggered by manual triggering devices and used at close range by fixed-position soul-guided cannons. A large number of civilians and soul-guided armed forces are their support."
Ye Nanxiao's hands trembled slightly, and his breathing was a little unsteady. Through the middle-aged evil soul master, he witnessed how terrifying the Ten Thousand Ghosts Soul Refining Array was. A city with a population of over a million would be turned into hell in less than three days, with blood and evil ghosts everywhere. He also saw the evil ghosts and vengeful spirits that babies and children had turned into, crying and howling at him.
"The plan has changed."
Elder Xuan slowly put away the wine pot, his body gradually growing larger, his powerful muscles bursting through his clothes.
"Kill all these beasts!"
