Just as Zhan Chen and others were about to rush to the scene of the accident, three or four loud noises were heard from different locations in the city, followed by huge explosions. This seemed to be premeditated and organized. He turned around and asked Wu
Xiaoliu: "Xiaoliu, has this situation ever happened in your city before?"
Wu Xiaoliu once said: "There are one or two soul hunts every day, but there are no soul hunts that appear at the same time like now."
Zhan Chen nodded and said, "I understand, let's pick the nearest one and rush there."
So, he hurried to one of the accident sites with his team members. As soon as he got there, he witnessed a shocking scene. The surrounding houses were destroyed in pieces, and there were more than a dozen corpses lying on the ground. Some of them were
They were passers-by, but most of them were soldiers from the city defense army, and there were even more soldiers from the city defense army (more than twenty people) surrounding a woman with dull eyes and a stiff body.
"It's soul hunting again!" Zhan Chen's eyes narrowed slightly. At this moment, the woman started to attack again, controlling her Taoist weapon to attack the remaining city defense warriors. The cultivation level of those city defense warriors was only transformation.
She was only in the Yuan realm, and the woman's cultivation was at the intermediate level of Old God. It was conceivable that this would be a one-sided massacre.
At the critical moment, Zhan Chen stepped forward and used the Youlong Jinghun Sword to attack decisively and stop the opponent's Taoist weapon.
But at this moment, the woman actually muttered the words: "Soul - attack!" Her eyes flashed with black light, and the black flames that Zhan Chen had encountered before suddenly appeared, heading straight towards Zhan Chen, and in her
When the soul attack was about to hit, Zhan Chen said with spring thunder: "Yuan Shen's Protection Shield!" The Yuan Shen's Protection Shield appeared again in front of the Divine Mansion, taking the fatal blow for him.
He successfully blocked the opponent's soul attack, but Zhan Chen felt that nearly one-tenth of his soul power had been consumed. He did not dare to hesitate and launched a decisive counterattack. He controlled the Dragon Soul Sword to use the Swift Dragon Flash, and quickly solved the problem.
Soul hunting.
As soon as the fighting here stopped, a woman led the team and rushed here. When Zhan Chen looked back, he recognized her as Senior Sister Zhuo Yating who came with him. This Senior Sister Zhuo Yating also had the Great Perfection of Yuan Shen.
In terms of cultivation, he was also regarded as a direct disciple in the sect. Looking back now, he suddenly realized that the other nine senior sisters who came with him this time all had the cultivation of Yuanshen Dzogchen and were full of fighting power. However, hers
It's just that her reputation is not as great as Lin Suya's.
Among all the people, he was the only one who was at the middle level of Yuanshen. He vaguely felt that all of this seemed to be arranged by an invisible hand, but he still didn't know what the significance of the sect's arrangement was.
.
When Zhuo Yating saw that Zhan Chen was fine, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Junior brother Zhan, are there soul hunters here too?"
Zhan Chen pointed to the corpses on the ground and said, "Yes, many people died."
Zhuo Yating shook her head and said: "These soul hunters are so arrogant, they dare to come out and kill people casually in broad daylight."
"Senior sister, as the saying goes, a puppet cannot jump by itself, but there must be a puller behind it. What I think is that the person who controls these soul hunters is Batuno. As long as we find his hiding place quickly, we can reduce the number of innocent victims.
.”
Zhuo Yating sighed and said: "It's a pity that the devil's cultivation level is too high and we can't handle it. All we can do is to eliminate the soul hunters in the city as much as possible." After a pause, she said again: "
Junior Brother Zhan, your cultivation level is the lowest and it is still a bit dangerous to deal with it alone, so please follow me and we will rush to the next place."
Zhan Chen nodded and replied: "Everything depends on senior sister's arrangements."
So, the two of them joined forces and fought mightily towards the next place where the soul hunter appeared... On this day, they kept running around, busy putting out fires everywhere in Linzhou City. Zhan Chen alone destroyed the souls.
There were as many as seven people hunting.
At dusk, everyone gathered again at the city defense station, mainly to count the number of people and report the casualties. After some calculations, Zong Xiang looked solemn, because in this day alone, more than 300 people were killed in the city defense year. This casualty was
Unprecedented, he didn't understand why the number of soul hunters had increased sharply since the Qinxiao sect's investigative messengers arrived.
And everyone looked at the huge city in a mess, with gunpowder smoke rising everywhere, and they were all worried. Most of them were praying that they would not encounter soul hunters again.
Jing Xiang looked at everyone and said: "Everyone has worked hard, but night is the time when soul hunters may take action. I hope everyone will continue to work hard to protect our city."
"I understand, Commander Zong." Everyone's answers seemed weak.
Zong Xiang looked at Zhan Chen and others, as if thinking of something, and asked: "Messengers of the Shang Zong, haven't your people come back yet?" He was referring to Lin Suya and other five people who were out to inspect the situation in various places.
.
Zhuo Yating stood up and replied: "At present, our captain and the others have indeed not come back. So, please let us go back first to confirm their previous situation."
"Okay then." Zong Xiang replied.
Next, Zhan Chen and the other six people returned to the Qinxiao Sect's branch in Linzhou City. There was a huge communication spiritual array set up there, which could contact Lin Suya and others outside through the Thousand Miles Communication Talisman.
Everyone opened the induction array with anxiety. After a while, they heard Lin Suya's voice from the other end: "Is the branch contacting us?"
Zhuo Yating said hurriedly: "Suya, what's going on over there with you? Why haven't you come back after so long?"
The person on the other side was silent for a moment, and then said: "We have something going on here. Let's do this. We will go back to meet you right away, and everyone will collect all the information we have collected."
"OK."
After almost half an hour, Lin Suya and others returned to the branch. When they met, Zhan Chen and others were shocked, because each of them looked tired, and even the clothes on their bodies were full of fatigue.
It was covered in dust and had obviously gone through a great battle.
Zhuo Yating immediately asked: "Suya, is the situation outside the city serious?"
Lin Suya nodded and said solemnly: "The seriousness is beyond imagination. Some of the villages and towns we have experienced have been occupied by soul hunters, and all the villagers inside have been killed. There is even a small town called Huaning Town.
, there was no one inside, only corpses were left.
There are soul hunters lingering in these villages and towns, like walking zombies. We fight continuously with those soul hunters. We all consume a lot, but we still want to kill more of these harmful dead things. Until you contact us, we will
Get rid of their tracking and retreat."
"Why did so many soul hunters suddenly appear? Today we also encountered many soul hunters in the city and had fierce battles with them. The city defense army also suffered heavy losses."
Lin Suya pondered for a long time, then suddenly thought of a possibility and said, "Could it be that the devil Baturno is lurking around here?"
