Chapter 224: Chaos in the Black Horn Domain! Soul Hall's Actions! Su Qian's Shock!

Chapter 224: Chaos in the Black Horn Domain! Soul Hall's Actions! Su Qian's Shock!

The terrifying devouring force directly descended upon the purple heavenly flame net.

Unlike the previous targeted attacks on the Earth Demon Old Ghost and Mo Tianxing, this was an indiscriminate assault.

The immense devouring force instantly swept over everyone.

In just a moment, some of the weaker junior Dou Ancestors couldn't resist, and their souls left their bodies, drifting towards the black fog in the void.

Piercing screams echoed through the void.

Those with slightly stronger abilities, perhaps due to the diffusion of the devouring force, struggled for a moment.

However, before the overwhelming devouring force, their efforts were futile. They couldn't break free and eventually, their souls also left their bodies and floated towards the black fog.

The Black Emperor Pavilion was filled with the sounds of numerous screams.

One after another, souls seemed to be drawn by some force, leaving their bodies and drifting towards the black fog in the void, silencing instantly.

Even someone as strong as the Earth Demon Old Ghost, a seven-star Dou Ancestor, had no power to resist this force.

Not to mention these Dou Emperor realm individuals.

Soon, the screams in the void diminished, and the floating souls gradually faded.

Those still standing below numbered less than ten.

Watching this, the few remaining felt a chill in their hearts, their spirits completely shattered, and they were taken by the devouring force into the black fog.

Inside the black fog, the shadow looked at the dense black beads in his palm, filled with struggling souls, showing no mercy but a cold smile instead.

The powerhouses who entered the Black Horn Domain were mostly villains chased from various parts of the continent, forced to take refuge here.

Among these gathered forces in the Black Horn Domain, many had committed countless evil deeds, utterly wicked.

For such evildoers, he had no sympathy in his heart.

These were people who deserved to die.

His actions were entirely in line with serving justice!

After capturing the souls of everyone present, the shadow clenched his palm, and all the black beads were collected.

Then, the shadow quickly took all the storage rings from the bodies and withdrew the purple heavenly flame net.

"Black Scaled Frigid Python, the rest is up to you!"

After doing all this, the shadow disappeared from the spot.

The Black Scaled Frigid Python, looking at the corpses on the ground, burst into a fierce glow in its eyes.

"At last, I can have a feast!"

Moments later, in an ordinary tavern, Gu He's figure suddenly appeared.

"This time, it's like becoming rich overnight."

Thinking of his gains, Gu He's face showed a delighted smile, almost grinning ear to ear.

"But these guys are so cunning, there must be more treasures hidden. I should act quickly before the news spreads."

With that thought, Gu He took out the collected black soul beads.

The first soul bead Gu He picked up contained the Earth Demon Old Ghost's soul.

The Earth Demon Old Ghost, seeing Gu He, roared furiously within the bead.

Gu He chuckled and immediately activated the Soul Devouring Technique, covering the entire bead with a powerful devouring force.

Moments later, the Earth Demon Old Ghost's soul, along with the soul bead, was completely devoured by Gu He.

The rich and pure soul power was absorbed by Gu He, along with the Earth Demon Old Ghost's vast memories.

After reading all the memories in his mind, Gu He smiled.

"Indeed, this old guy had another hidden treasure. I almost missed it."

Then, Gu He picked up the soul bead containing Mo Tianxing's soul.

Mo Tianxing, as the head of the Black Emperor Sect and involved in auction house operations, must have numerous treasures.

With a thought, Gu He executed the Soul Devouring Technique, engulfing the soul bead with a massive devouring force.

Moments later, he finished reading Mo Tianxing's memories.

Next was Ying Shan Lao Ren, a four-star Dou Ancestor.

Then came Qi Shan, a sixth-grade Alchemist.

Mo Yan Valley's Elder Fang Yan.

The leader of the Beast Taming Sect.

...

One by one, the souls of the leaders of the major powers in the Black Horn Domain were refined by Gu He.

...

The incident at the Black Emperor Pavilion quickly spread throughout the Black Horn Domain at an astonishing speed.

The demise of the leaders of the major powers instantly stirred up a huge wave in the Black Horn Domain.

Subsequently, a piece of news spread.

The Soul Hall was about to sweep through the entire Black Horn Domain!

Some smaller powers had never even heard of the Soul Hall before, but upon learning that the "Black Emperor Pavilion Incident" was the work of the Soul Hall, they were terrified.

For a time, everyone in the Black Horn Domain felt at risk, fearing a major purge by the Soul Hall.

Soon, many powers in the Black Horn Domain collectively fled.

In a short period of time, the vast Black Horn Domain lost its former prosperity.

...

At the Funeral Soul Ridge.

In the Soul Hall's branch.

Several black-clothed individuals gathered together, their expressions uncertain.

"Who do you think is behind this Black Emperor Pavilion incident?"

"Isn't it rumored that it was our Soul Hall's doing?"

"But we didn't make a move, did we?"

"Could it be the Protector?"

"With the Protector's strength, it is indeed possible to do this."

"And the Protector has been absent from the hall for some time."

"It seems very likely that this was the work of the Protector?"

The Soul Hall's executives discussed, gradually concluding the matter.

Thinking about the rumors outside and the current situation in the Black Horn Domain.

For a time, when the people of the Soul Hall spoke of the Protector, their faces showed even greater awe.

The Protector single-handedly destroyed the entire Black Horn Domain!

How terrifying!

"What should we do now?"

A Soul Hall executive asked.

"What else can we do? The Protector personally dealt with those powerhouses."

"The remaining small fry are naturally our target. They don't deserve the Protector's attention."

"You're right. Send the orders out. Starting today, everyone will take action."

"These people dared to disrespect our Soul Hall; they deserve to die!"

Moments later, above Funeral Soul Ridge, hundreds of black shadows floated out, filled with murderous intent, and headed towards various parts of the Black Horn Domain.

The next day, news of annihilated factions spread throughout the Black Horn Domain.

For a time, those powers that had remained in the Black Horn Domain, skeptical and hoping for the best, were all eradicated by the strong members of the Soul Hall.

The massive mobilization of the Soul Hall instantly confirmed the truth of the rumors.

The Soul Hall really intended to cleanse the entire Black Horn Domain!

The slaughter by the Soul Hall plunged the Black Horn Domain into even greater chaos.

In just a few days, the Black Horn Domain, which had existed for hundreds of years, was completely devastated, turning into a thing of the past.

...

Inside Jia Nan Academy's Inner Academy.

In a quiet and elegant courtyard, a black-clothed elder was sitting in a pavilion, leisurely sipping tea.

Bang!

Just then, the courtyard door was struck by a tremendous force, shattering into pieces and flying out.

Following this, a little girl in white walked through the broken door.

"You…"

The black-clothed elder, looking at the shattered door, twitched his mouth in irritation but managed to suppress his anger, showing a hint of helplessness on his aged face.

"How many times have you broken my door this month?"

"Can't you learn to be a bit gentler?"

The elder scolded the little girl in white, his frustration evident.

The little girl, appearing to be around ten years old, had long, pale purple hair that fell to her waist. Her cheeks were extremely delicate, her face doll-like in its beauty, and her large, black, sparkling eyes blinked innocently, making her look endearingly cute.

Unperturbed by the elder's anger, the little girl walked into the pavilion, stretched out her small, fair hand towards the black-clothed elder, and said crisply, "I'm hungry."

Seeing the girl's actions, the elder's mouth twitched slightly.

Then, he took out a golden fruit and handed it to the girl, his tone somewhat resigned, "Can't you find your own food in the back mountain?"

"That's too much effort!"

The girl took the golden fruit, biting into it directly. She chewed, her voice muffled, and swallowed a mouthful of golden juice. She frowned slightly and muttered in a low voice, "It tastes bad."

If any alchemist saw this, they would be shocked.

This golden fruit was a rare sixth-grade medicinal ingredient known as "Diamond Bodhi," used in alchemy. Its texture was as hard as gold and iron, impervious to ordinary flames and teeth.

Yet, the little girl ate it as if it were an ordinary fruit.

With a crisp sound, akin to rocks splitting, echoed in the spacious courtyard as the girl bit into the fruit.

Moments later, she finished the golden fruit, patted her stomach, and stretched out her hand again, saying clearly, "I'm still hungry!"

The elder's face twitched at this, and somewhat helplessly, he took out another red fruit, another sixth-grade spiritual medicine, and handed it to her.

After eating the red fruit, the girl finally appeared satisfied and left the courtyard.

Watching her leave, the black-clothed elder looked at the damaged door and sighed helplessly.

"This girl is becoming more and more unruly!"

"Who knows who can manage this girl..."

Not long after the girl left, a green-clothed elder arrived at the courtyard.

Seeing the destroyed door, he was startled, then smiled helplessly.

"Great Elder, was it Ziyan again?"

The green-clothed elder sat down in the pavilion, looking at the helpless black-clothed elder with a bit of schadenfreude.

"Sigh, don't mention it!"

The black-clothed elder sighed and asked, "Lao Liu, do you have something for me?"

Hearing this, the green-clothed elder's expression turned serious.

"Great Elder, something big has happened."

He then recounted the recent events in the Black Horn Domain.

Hearing this, the black-clothed elder's expression became grave.

"I had no idea such a major upheaval occurred in the Black Horn Domain."

After listening to the green-clothed elder, the black-clothed elder's brow furrowed, his expression extremely solemn.
