Chapter 159: Soul Hall Guardian: Hehehe!
Xiao Ze ruffled Ziyan's little head vigorously, messing up her hair. "I've prepared a lot of pills for you during this time. Use them sparingly so you can't say I came back late."
Ziyan pushed away Xiao Ze's mischievous hand and, after hesitating for a moment, said, "I know. Be careful on the road."
Xiao Ze also patted Qinglin's head and smiled at Xiao Yi Xian.
"I'm leaving. Take care."
Xiao Ze spread his energy wings and flew towards the entrance of the inner academy under the envious and admiring gazes of the students.
He greeted the elders guarding the gate, then passed through the silver gate and soared into the sky.
The gate elders watched Xiao Ze's figure fade into the distance.
"It's incredible. What's his current level?" they wondered, amazed by Xiao Ze's flying speed.
Unbeknownst to him, Xiao Ze had deeply impressed the gate guardians with his speed.
This time, he flew directly through the Infinite Mountains, entering the Black Corner Region. With his current power, he didn't need to worry about the magical beasts hidden in the depths of the mountains.
If he was lucky enough to encounter a high-level magical serpent beast, he might even gain some benefits.
After a while, Xiao Ze stopped in a mountain range and released some of his energy, scaring away the magical beasts in the mountain.
"I've been flying for a long time, it's time to rest a bit."
Xiao Ze checked Queen Medusa's status and, seeing that she was still present, felt a bit relieved.
"Hmm?"
Xiao Ze leaned against a tree, looking into the distance. He had sensed a dark and hidden presence.
"Hehehe, no wonder your spiritual power is so strong; your perception is sharp," an unpleasant, raspy voice echoed as a cloud of black mist materialized.
"Although I didn't find the seventh-level alchemist, your spiritual power isn't bad at all. This time I've gained something, hehehe."
Seeing the black mist and hearing the strange laughter, Xiao Ze couldn't help but think of an organization: the Soul Hall.
From the words of this Soul Hall guardian, it seemed he had been attracted by Xiao Ze's making of a seventh-level pill some time ago.
However, the Soul Hall guardian seemed unaware that Xiao Ze was the alchemist he was looking for.
After all, who would think that a seventh-level alchemist would be alone and dressed as an adventurer, without the usual pomp and entourage?
Just as the ghostly voice fell, the black mist slightly stirred.
Swish!
A shiny black iron chain shot out from the mist with terrifying speed, almost instantly reaching Xiao Ze.
"Hehehe..."
The Soul Hall guardian thought Xiao Ze was paralyzed with fear seeing him immobile, and laughed sharply.
Xiao Ze watched the chain flying towards him, its sharp tip gleaming with a strange glow.
With his spiritual perception, Xiao Ze could sense that the glow had a special effect on soul forces.
As the chain was about to reach him, Xiao Ze moved his right hand to intercept it, condensing his power into a finger.
Clang!
The chain deflected back even faster towards the black mist.
This sudden change made the laughter in the mist stop abruptly, like a duck caught by surprise, resulting in a comical and ridiculous scene.
The chain plunged into the mist, making it tremble.
"I underestimated you."
A voice filled with fury resonated from the mist, and several chains shot out with even more power than before.
Xiao Ze noticed that the chains blocked all his escape routes, forming a deadly trap.
But he had no intention of escaping.
Members of the Soul Hall were elusive, hard to find. Now that one had presented itself, and Xiao Ze had the capability to confront it, he wouldn't let it escape.
Boom!
Xiao Ze's vast battle energy deployed, easily deflecting the chains as his figure launched towards the mist.
"Oh, not only do you not flee like prey, but you dare to attack," the voice in the mist mocked.
The chains, as if alive, turned to attack Xiao Ze from behind.
The Soul Hall guardian sneered, thinking Xiao Ze was doomed.
"Hehehe, from the moment you approached, your countdown to death began. Before your battle technique reaches me, the chains will pierce you, leaving you defenseless."
But Xiao Ze smiled under his cloak. Things wouldn't go as the guardian expected.
Xiao Ze used his battle technique to deflect the chains and got even closer to the guardian.
"Hmph, your resistance is pathetic."
The Soul Hall guardian condensed his spiritual energy into a ghostly claw, aiming at Xiao Ze.
However, Xiao Ze was faster, launching a brilliant punch with silver flashes, hitting the guardian before he could react.
Boom!
With a dull sound and a burst of thunder, a figure flew out of the mist, crashing into a nearby mountain, which crumbled from the impact.
"Wow, I knew my strength had increased, but this is incredible."
"But this Soul Hall guardian is special; he's a spiritual entity. I managed to harm him thanks to the lightning energy."
"The absorption of the lightning has allowed me to use its energy, which is effective against spiritual entities."
"Lightning energy, born from nature, is powerful and can damage spirits."
Xiao Ze quickly approached the guardian, not giving him time to react, and with a lightning-charged punch, destroyed his head.
The spiritual energy dissipated into points of light.
"Is this the famous soul sack?"
Xiao Ze picked up a peculiar bag, sensing several spiritual entities inside. After thinking for a moment, he released them.
He let the freed entities go while picking up the chain from the ground.
"A soul-capturing chain, useful against spiritual entities. Now it's mine."
Xiao Ze stored the chain and thought about the spiritual mark of the guardian in the Soul Hall. But in this desolate place, no one would know he had killed him.
To be sure, Xiao Ze unleashed a fire that burned the entire area.
"Destroying evidence... seems I have a talent for this."
