Chapter 166 Killing and devouring the soul to increase Taoism, the true mystery is in the yin and th
Zhenshan City.
The last beast wave broke out suddenly.
Although the elite troops of the Great Chu resisted these beast tides outside the city, ordinary people did not suffer too many casualties, but the previous scene was too shocking. Even today, people are still panicked and it is still difficult to calm down.
But at this moment, the commander-in-chief and deputy commander-in-chief who were guarding this place looked at the soldiers who came to report from below, with serious expressions on their faces.
"Twenty-seven people died last night. They were all Daoyin-level practitioners. Their deaths were extremely strange and silent. None of the soldiers who patrolled yesterday noticed any movement."
"Are they all practitioners at the Daoyin level?"
"Yes, they are all outside cultivators. After death, all the blood and vitality wither. The corpse is like a statue, without any trace of remaining vitality."
"How to say?"
"Logically speaking, the life of a person who first dies is extinct, but it is not like this, not surviving at all."
"Any clues?"
"We have found some of them and have already reported them to the Prince's Palace and the Bachelor's Palace."
"Daoyin level, outsider cultivator?" The deputy commander, who already had an appearance that was fifty years old, said with a solemn expression: "This person does not kill ordinary people because he is afraid of causing too much trouble and inducing us to block the city.
Killing the Jindan Master is because the Jindan level masters are all very capable, so it is difficult for them to succeed silently?"
"He seems to be a cunning guy." The commander-in-chief said with a cold expression: "Last time the beast wave swept across, people were panicked. Prince Zhu's Mansion has ordered the Palm Seal Master of the Twenty-Third Mansion not to have any more turmoil. We can't make any more noise.
.The people who are dead now are all outsiders who are cultivators. No one recognizes them and no one reports the crime. The news has not spread yet and it can still be suppressed..."
"Now it's best to search secretly and succeed in one strike without harming the people." The deputy commander nodded and said.
"This person should be at the Golden Core level and is good at assassination. If he kills people, he must have a plan." The commander asked: "Have you checked?"
"After checking, there are six people in Jindan who have secret techniques and can kill people to help their cultivation." The soldier paused and said, "They have passed the palace and reported to the bachelor's palace."
"good."
Just like that.
The token on the commander's waist suddenly flashed.
His expression was slightly condensed, he took a piece of white paper, guided all the words in the token, and dropped them on the white paper.
Immediately, you can see a lot of text on the white paper.
Yin Yuzhou, now three hundred and sixty-seven years old, was born in the third-rate Taoist sect of the side sect. His sect was destroyed two hundred years ago. Now he is a monk of Sanxue. He is an upper-level cultivation of Jindan. He is proficient in Yinxie magic and possesses evil ways.
A magic weapon that is good at frightening people.
Its skill is the soul-swallowing skill, which is a remnant of ancient Taoist skills. It has the ability to swallow souls, thereby enhancing itself.
Thirty-five years ago, he fought with Yuan Zhenghai, a disciple of the Zhenyuan Sect who was ranked twenty-fifth on the list of outstanding figures. Both sides suffered losses, and there was no winner.
Based on past calculations, this person has reached the peak of his golden elixir training. Now that he has practiced Taoism for more than 300 years, he may have glimpsed the true mysteries, and he is highly suspected of killing people and swallowing souls.
"Yin Yuzhou?"
The commander's face changed slightly and he whispered: "Has the strength of the top thirty on the list of outstanding people?"
The deputy commander said in a low voice: "Although many older cultivators are not on the list of outstanding people, they have accumulated over hundreds of years and have gradually perfected the golden elixir. They have a clear understanding of their own cultivation and are able to fully utilize their abilities. Therefore, they are among the older practitioners.
, there are also people who are not inferior to the younger generation of real people on the list of outstanding people."
The commander-in-chief looked at the piece of paper and said: "Since the Bachelor's Office has come up with the conclusion, it is most likely him."
The deputy commander responded: "In the last beast wave, our elite Chu troops suffered heavy casualties, and many ferocious beasts, spirits and monsters in the mountains were also killed. The remaining souls are still there. I am afraid he came here for this reason, to seize the undisturbed souls.
And accumulate foundation."
The commander's face darkened slightly and he said: "In other words, these thousands of souls are not enough for him? So he wants to kill people and seize souls..."
The deputy commander's face gradually became serious, and he said: "It seems that he is really going to achieve Zhenxuan, I'm afraid it will be very difficult."
The commander's face was cold and he said: "Even Zhenxuan cannot trample on the laws of Da Chu."
The deputy commander responded: "This person is now a monk with no sect to worry about. Once he enters Zhenxuan, he can escape far away overseas. In the vast East Continent, it is not easy for our Great Chu Dynasty to hunt down a Zhenxuan level.
Big shot."
The Commander-in-Chief took a deep breath and said: "If this is true, he must be desperate and will never stop. He will take action tonight. He will be more vigilant. You and I will personally lead the troops to guard both sides."
"Be sure to kill him before he breaks through the true mystery!"
"If we can't catch him as soon as possible, I'm afraid this person will set foot in Zhenxuan, and the consequences will be disastrous."
"Perhaps we will massacre this mountain city and even the six thousand elites of our great Chu who are here to guard the border."
After finishing speaking, the commander-in-chief held the token tightly and said: "I will personally send a letter to inform the prince."
Although the Bachelor's Mansion has investigated this far, it will definitely report to Prince Zhu's Mansion, and the prince should come in person, but as a subordinate, reporting to the superiors is out of respect and due to rules.
The deputy commander heard this and said seriously: "I will adjust the defense tonight."
——
In the city.
Inn.
Tonight's sky is still dimly lit with moon and stars.
"Have a good rest tonight. Early tomorrow morning, we will go to the small market and buy things to avoid obstacles before entering the wild mountains. After all, it is a wild land with countless ferocious birds and beasts. I am afraid that there will not be much time to rest peacefully in the future.
"
"Yes, I will go and have a rest after this. Master, please rest early."
"OK."
Zhuang Ming nodded, finished washing and was about to take a rest.
Lu He and Yue Ting were in rooms on both sides of him.
As for Wen Han, he lives in the first room at the entrance of the stairs.
He stretched out his hand and the dragon took it, holding back his breath.
However, at this moment, he felt a little fluttering in his heart.
——
In the darkness of the night, a shadow slowly came.
"There are still thirty-two Taoist practitioners left."
"I've swallowed enough tonight, so I'll escape from Zhenshan City, enter the wild mountains, and stay in seclusion for ten years. I'm 80% sure that I can enter the Zhenxuan."
"There are seven cultivators in this inn in front of us, and there are no real people at the Golden elixir level."
"There are still six third-level martial arts warriors. Although they are not as nourishing as Dao Seal practitioners, they can still supplement my Blood God Banner."
I saw the shadow sitting in the darkness, opening its mouth and biting it, and spit out something.
It was a piece of tongue.
That tongue is full of sharp energy.
Follow the darkness toward the nearest warrior.
On the left side of the warrior was a cultivator in the Qi-nurturing realm. His Tao Seal had not yet been formed, and he was not much different from an ordinary person. He was not among the seven cultivators he originally counted.
But to the left of this cultivator, there is another martial artist of the third level of martial arts, and further to the left, there are three Dao Seal practitioners.
Go through this road to the left and you will be able to swallow two master-level warriors and three Taoist practitioners.
