Chapter 248: Hidden Title (3)

Bang! Bang!

The moment he finished speaking, black fog erupted from the treetops surrounding the square, and dozens of shadows appeared, encircling the crowd.

The sudden turn of events startled everyone, and they looked around in panic.

"They are all experts in the Dou King and Dou Emperor realm, damn it! When did so many powerful people come to the Jia Ma Empire?"

Jia Xing Tian's face was no longer calm, his old features contracting uncontrollably.

Hai Bodong's face wasn't much better. L1tLagoon witnessed the first publication of this chapter on Ñøv€l--B1n.

"It seems they don't plan on sparing us. Be prepared to fight for our lives!"

...

As Xiao Ming overheard the conversation between the two Protectors, his expression became increasingly grave. He hadn't anticipated the presence of two of them in this place. He had always assumed there was only one. It also seemed as if they were already aware of him.

This time, he had made a slight miscalculation.

However, two Protectors were only two Protectors, he could still handle them.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he thought this, Protector Xuan immediately shouted.

"All Spirit Envoys listen up. Form the Ten Thousand Soul Swallowing Formation!"

At the sound of the shout, the sky was suddenly filled with black fog pouring out of the bodies of the black figures atop the trees. The fog rapidly enveloped the Misty Cloud Sect and several swirling clusters of black fog-like substances rose and hovered, emitting a faint glow. Phantasmal souls with fiery red eyes burst forth like malevolent spirits, emitting a chilling and blood-curdling screech, launching an all-out assault on the powerful figures of the Jia Ma Empire and Xiao Ming.

As he gazed upon the multitude of wandering souls, the recently arrived Protector Xuan let out a maniacal laugh.

"Xiao Ming, I know you possess extraordinary battle prowess, having been able to defeat Mister Gold and Mister Silver of the Black-Corner Region who had the combat strength of a Dou Ancestor while you were only in the Dou Emperor realm. So, I have prepared a special surprise for you. These are souls I have successfully gathered over a long period of time, and the formation they create is worthy of you. Jie Jie Jie, enjoy!"

Countless high-pitched, piercing screams echoed endlessly on Misty Cloud Mountain, dense souls entered and exited the black fog, like evil spirits hidden in the night, their blood-red eyes, in the darkness, looked extraordinarily eerie.

The experts of the Jia Ma Empire gazed at the dense black clouds in the sky with grave eyes, feeling their scalps go numb at the sight of the countless souls within.

These were not weak individuals, and they quickly summoned their Dou Qi to cover their bodies. As soon as the souls began to descend upon them like a pack of wolves, the experts unleashed their Dou Qi, imbuing their sharp blades with a powerful force that tore the souls apart upon contact.

Frowning, he touched his storage ring.

"Senior Lao, I need you to come out."

"What do you need me to do, Xiao Ming?"

Yao Tian Huo floated out of the storage ring in Xiao Ming's hand and floated to his side, smiling as he said.

'Huh!? Is there really another soul body? Looking at the degree of the solidity of this soul, although it's not as good as Yao Chen, his cultivation level shouldn't have been low before he died. What a lucky day, Jie Jie...' Protector Xuan's scarlet eyes looked straight at Yao Tian Huo as he said with a sinister smile.

Although he thought about this, Protector Xuan did not make any rash moves and remained cautious.

"Senior Yao, I'll let you take care of those Spirit Envoys inside the Grand Formation."

"No problem, however, I've seen this Ten Thousand Soul Swallowing Formation of the Hall of Souls before. The soul bodies released from within are merely food, and every time a soul body is killed, pure spiritual strength is absorbed by the black cloud. With the gathering of an increasing amount of spiritual strength, a fierce spirit that is formed from the tens of fierce soul bodies will appear in the cloud layer. This fierce spirit is the purpose of this formation, and by then, the other side will have another Dou Ancestor powerhouse. If I attack, I won't be able to avoid affecting the soul bodies, and the fierce spirit will appear even earlier. Are you sure there's no problem?" Yao Tian Huo had no objection but felt the need to remind Xiao Ming.

"No problem." Xiao Ming said nonchalantly, he had long since seen the suspicious nature of this formation.

Those Spirit Envoys only sensed the presence of Dou Spirit or higher, so those weak disciples of the Misty Cloud Sect, contrary to what one might believe, were not greatly affected, and every time these disciples as well as the experts killed a soul body, a piece of spiritual strength was absorbed by the black cloud in the sky.

Obviously, this formation was more complicated than it seemed.

"By the way, later on, remember to take care of the Jia Ma Empire's experts. No matter what, they also suffered an undeserved calamity, oh, and take this Yun Shan with you as well," Xiao Ming instructed.

He then turned to Xiao Yi Xian and said.

"Xian'er, go to Zi Yan's side."

"But what about those two?" Xiao Yi Xian asked, feeling insecure. She was worried about her sister but didn't want Xiao Ming to put himself in danger.

"Leave them to me. If the fierce spirit appears, you just need to block the other party and keep some of your cards to protect Zi Yan at any time," Xiao Ming said before immediately turning into a fiery red shadow, rushing towards the two Protectors.
