Chapter 219: Slaughtering the Hall of Souls Again!
"Gu Fei, I heard a few years ago that one of the three Tiangang Halls of the Soul Hall was completely wiped out by a mysterious force. That wouldn't have been your doing, would it?" Gu Xiong asked, recalling the incident as he listened to Gu Fei's concern about the Hall of Souls.
Hearing this, Gu Nanhai also turned his gaze towards Gu Fei.
"Grandpa Gu Xiong, you see through everything!" Gu Fei smiled and nodded.
There was no need to hide such a matter anymore, especially from these two, who were highly respected elders within the clan. Gu Xiong, in particular, had a special fondness for Gu Fei since he had been a child and had watched him grow up.
"Then I know what you're planning, Gu Fei. You want to strike the Hall of Souls again!" Gu Xiong said with a hearty laugh.
When the Man Hall was destroyed, Gu Fei was only a Half-Saint, yet he dared to take such a bold step against a force related to the Hun Clan. This made Gu Xiong very pleased.
Even now, despite everything Gu Fei had said, neither Gu Xiong nor Gu Nanhai regarded the Hall of Souls as a major threat. They merely thought that destroying the Soul Hall could cause some pain to the Hun Clan.
"That's right, Grandpa Xiong, Elder Nanhai. I plan to go to the Central Plains and wipe out one of the three Tiangang halls, the Earth Hall..." Gu Fei revealed his plan.
Even Gu Fei didn't know the location of Heaven Hall, or he would have preferred to target that.
"Good, since you have this idea, I'll join you for some fun!" Gu Xiong agreed without hesitation.
"I'll go too!" Gu Nanhai responded as well.
Both were Four-Star Dou Saints, so their involvement wouldn't violate the ancient clans' pact.
The Earth Hall, one of the three major halls of the Soul Hall, was extremely well-hidden, its location unknown to most. However, as long as the Soul Hall had dealings with people in the Central Plains, it could not remain entirely hidden. With the Gu Clan's influence, finding the Earth Hall's location was not difficult.
...
In the southern part of the Central Region, there was a mountain range with treacherous terrain, rarely visited by people. Deep within the mountains stood an enormous black hall. Like the Man Hall destroyed previously, this hall was surrounded by countless massive iron chains, with dense black fog clinging to them.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a terrifying palm imprint descended from the sky, heading straight for the black hall.
"Who dares to cause trouble at the Hall of Souls?"
A shadowy figure appeared above the black hall, emerging from a distortion in space. The figure quickly moved its hands, and thick black fog burst from its palms, colliding with the descending palm imprint. However, it was clear that the figure struggled to handle the powerful attack.
After the black fog dissipated, the figure was forced back onto the roof of the black hall by the residual force of the palm imprint.
Seeing this, the Soul Hall experts inside the hall were all filled with fear. They hadn't expected that even the strongest among them would be unable to match these invaders.
Recalling the massacre of the Man Hall a few years ago, they grew even more anxious.
"People from the Gu Clan?"
The shadowy figure looked up in surprise, revealing an unusually pale face. Despite the youthful appearance, the figure's voice was eerily sinister, indicating a far older age than the face suggested.
"Heh, at least you have some knowledge!"
Gu Xiong, Gu Nanhai, and Gu Fei descended, looking at the person with amused expressions.
"You must be the deputy hall master of the Hall of Souls!"
"I've heard you've been looking for me these past few years," Gu Fei said, hinting at the past.
"Looking for you? ... You, you're the one who slaughtered the Man Hall years ago?"
Upon hearing Gu Fei's words, the deputy hall master quickly realized who he was dealing with. After the Man Hall was destroyed, this deputy hall master was severely punished by the clan. If it weren't for Hun Mie Sheng's plea for mercy, he might have lost his life.
Now, with Gu Fei revealing his identity, the deputy hall master of the Soul Hall was filled with overwhelming hatred.
"Because of you, I was punished by the clan. Today, I will grind your bones to dust!"
The deputy hall master's eyes turned cold as he reached out toward Gu Fei. Dark fog surged from his fingers, forming five massive chains that whipped toward Gu Fei.
"Hmph, do you think we old guys don't exist?" Gu Xiong snorted, destroying the five chains with a single strike.
Gu Nanhai swiftly moved forward, closing in on the deputy hall master in an instant. With a single palm strike, he sent the deputy hall master flying back several hundred meters, cracking the top of the black hall.
"Damn it..."
The deputy hall master's eyes flashed with ferocity, but it was merely a bluff. As a Three-Star Dou Saint, he knew he wouldn't survive much longer against the three of them.
In desperation, the deputy hall master quickly retreated, pulling out a silver jade slip and crushing it in his hand. Instantly, a strong spatial fluctuation spread out.
However, to his horror, the expected spatial portal did not appear. The spatial energy that should have opened the portal merely dissipated.
"Did you think we wouldn't prepare before attacking?" Gu Xiong teased, watching the deputy hall master's face grow grim.
The deputy hall master's face twitched as he finally realized the hopelessness of his situation.
"The Hun Clan has slaughtered countless innocents in the Central Plains over the years. Today, you will experience what it feels like to be slaughtered!" Gu Fei said coldly.
In the ensuing battle, the deputy hall master of the Soul Hall didn't last more than three moves before he met his end. The remaining minions were quickly wiped out by Gu Fei, Gu Xiong, and Gu Nanhai.
After destroying the entire Hall of Souls group, Gu Xiong and Gu Nanhai discovered a large number of captured souls in the black hall.
"What is the Hall of Souls trying to do?" Gu Xiong and Gu Nanhai wondered.
"Elders, take a look below!" After freeing the trapped souls, Gu Fei destroyed the black hall, revealing a massive soul essence cluster beneath its ruins.
"This is for extracting soul essence. If just one branch hall has such a large amount, the Soul Hall must have accumulated ten times or even dozens of times more over the years!"
Gu Nanhai and Gu Xiong finally grasped the seriousness of the situation.
With so much soul essence, it could easily allow someone's soul to reach the peak of the Heavenly State, or even attain the legendary God Realm soul.
