Chapter 160: Poison Specifically Designed Against the Soul Hall!
Chapter 160: Poison Specifically Designed Against the Soul Hall!
After destroying all evidence, Xiao Ze quickly left the place, not even thinking about resting for a moment. The battle with the Soul Hall member gave him many ideas about spiritual bodies.
According to the original work, battle energy and other common types of energy can barely harm spiritual bodies. If the intensity of the energy or Dou Qi reaches a certain level, they can also effectively damage spiritual bodies, but at least on the same level, it is very difficult to achieve.
I don't know if it is to highlight the ability of the Flaming Heartfall against souls and demonstrate its power. This leads to other energies or Dou Qi hardly damaging souls.
After all, it is reasonable to say that common energy does not affect souls. But how is it possible that even lightning attribute Dou Qi has no effect on spiritual bodies? Yet, it is so!
Fortunately, the lightning energy Xiao Ze refined this time is different from lightning attribute Dou Qi and has even more violent destructive power. It also has a strong ability to kill spiritual bodies.
At the same time, eliminating a Soul Hall member also allowed Xiao Ze to confirm his own combat power. Soul Hall Guardians are at least at the Dou Zong level!
And that Guardian was merely a low-level Dou Zong. If he had used a secret technique to devour souls and increase his strength, he should have approached the mid-level Dou Zong.
Unfortunately, he was careless for a moment and suffered a severe injury from Xiao Ze's lightning strike. He didn't have the chance to use his secret technique before Xiao Ze eliminated him.
Although there were many additional factors in the death of the Soul Hall Guardian, it cannot be denied that Xiao Ze now has the ability to kill a Dou Zong!
"This black mist deserves to be investigated..."
In the palm of Xiao Ze's right hand, a sphere of energy enveloped a cloud of black mist. With a golden root penetrating the mist, it absorbed it.
Within the empty space, the Source Tree trembled slightly, consuming a large amount of Dou Qi.
Shortly after, Xiao Ze raised his left hand and condensed a trace of somewhat illusory poisonous energy. Xiao Ze's Hundred Tribulations Poison Body ability allows him to perfectly control the power of poison.
He can customize specific poisons for each enemy, giving them special treatment.
However, few people have had the privilege of having Xiao Ze design a customized poison for them.
Previously, in the Tagor Desert, to quickly solve the problem of Queen Medusa, Xiao Ze used his Hundred Tribulations Poison Body.
And now, of course, it is to deal with future members of the Soul Hall he might encounter, creating a special poison.
The Soul Hall is a vast and powerful organization with many people. Customizing poisons for them is never a loss.
Although the cost is enormous, it is worth it.
This black mist has protective and concealing functions. When it covers the user, even Yao Lao's spiritual force cannot penetrate it and perceive the Soul Hall Guardian's situation as a spiritual body.
With this powerful protective ability, Xiao Ze finds it very difficult to use his poison discreetly to poison the Soul Hall Guardians.
Therefore, he needed to design a specific poison for the black mist.
Looking at the remaining black mist in the energy sphere in his right hand, Xiao Ze integrated a trace of his illusory poison.
Xiao Ze's spiritual power perceived the illusory poison merging with the black mist, inseparably, like water and milk.
"If I can break the defense of the black mist... then this poison can cause lethal damage to spiritual bodies."
"To customize this poison specifically for souls, I have consumed a large amount of Dou Qi and spiritual energy."
Xiao Ze clenched his right hand, dispersing the poisonous mist in the energy sphere.
In future encounters with Soul Hall members, Xiao Ze can immediately create the necessary poison, without having to take the time to slowly make it.
...
In a hidden place in the northwest of the continent, inside a large and gloomy black hall.
An old man dressed in purple slowly opened his eyes and looked at a soul plate with an impassive expression.
"The Black-Corner Region... a lawless land? Hmph! Daring to kill someone from the Soul Hall, it really can be called a lawless land."
"Mu Lu, Wang Xiao, Lin An, go to the Black-Corner Region and find out who dared to kill someone from the Soul Hall."
Three figures instantly appeared before the old man, bowing respectfully.
"Find him and kill him, bring his soul... then one of you will stay in the Black-Corner Region to collect souls."
After the old man spoke, the three figures quickly left.
The old man looked at the soul plate once more, stored it away, and closed his eyes again, as if losing a Dou Zong was not a big deal for the Soul Hall.
The old man was not worried about the loss of a Dou Zong, but about the fact that someone dared to kill a Soul Hall member.
With the old man's eyes closed, the space distorted once more.
The large hall filled with imprisoned souls fell silent again.
...
Tagor Desert, Snake Temple.
Four elders of the snake tribe gathered, their auras unstable and lacking their usual coldness.
"The frenzied different fire is terrifying. The four of us barely managed to contain it for a long time."
The Great Elder of the snake tribe spoke with a serious expression, then looked worriedly at the ice coffin.
"The most important thing is Medusa. For the snake tribe, Medusa is indispensable."
"But after a failed evolution, suffering the backlash of the different fire, even though there is a secret technique to protect her, the situation is still worrying..."
Another elder frowned. As elders, they knew the importance of Medusa to the snake tribe.
"With Medusa's current situation, we have no solution. We probably can only turn to a high-level alchemist."
After the Great Elder's words, the other three elders looked at each other and then nodded.
"But the problem is, where do we find a high-level alchemist? Our relationship with the surrounding empires is not good."
An elder spoke bitterly, "The leader is surviving thanks to a secret technique of the tribe."
"The alchemists of the neighboring empires not only will not help us, but if they learn about the leader's situation, they will seize the opportunity to harm us."
The four elders fell into a momentary silence.
The surrounding empires were all human empires, and the snake tribe, as a different race, faced unanimous rejection from the human empires.
"No matter what, we must try. If we can save the leader, even if we spend all our resources, it will be worth it."
"I will go to the Jia Ma Empire and see if I can convince the Pill King, Gu He."
The Great Elder spoke slowly, and the other two elders also decided to go to other empires.
When the last elder was about to speak, the Great Elder intervened first: "You will stay in the Snake Temple and protect the leader's safety."
"No time to waste, let's leave immediately!"
...
After crossing several countries, Xiao Ze finally saw the vast Tagor Desert.
"Phew... after encountering the Soul Hall member, there were no more problems. On the contrary, I obtained two high-level snake beasts."
"I finally reached the Tagor Desert. I wonder how Queen Medusa is doing."
As Xiao Ze thought this, he suddenly sensed the presence of a strong Dou Huang coming from the Jia Ma Empire.
However, Xiao Ze sensed a cold aura in that presence, as if it were from a strong member of the snake tribe.
"Interesting, a strong member of the snake tribe coming out of the Jia Ma Empire?"
