Soul travels through the world of immortality

In the dark night, Hua Shi, Li Mingyang, and Lan Fenghuang followed the smuggler through a narrow alley and finally arrived in front of this empty building. The signboard "Outside Hotel" on the door swayed, looking lonely and lonely.

The flower waiter and Li Mingyang were both a little uneasy. After all, this was a strange place for them and they didn't know whether the hotel was safe, but Lan Fenghuang was relatively relaxed. The smuggler was very familiar with this and led the three of them straight into the hotel door.

As soon as they entered the door, the flower waiter and Li Mingyang felt an oppressive atmosphere. The lights inside the hotel were dim and some ancient paintings were hung on the walls. The three of them carefully followed the smuggler to the hotel lobby. Just then, an elf in black robes appeared in front of them, holding a sharp dagger in his hand.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?" The man in black looked at a few people and asked in a low voice.

The flower waiter and Li Mingyang remained silent. Lan Fenghuang replied calmly: "We were just passing by and wanted to find a place to rest."

The man in black glanced at the smuggler and nodded, as if he knew him: "Go ahead and register at the front desk. Wen De has a bad temper, so be careful." After that, he turned and left.

Hua Shi and Li Mingyang breathed a sigh of relief. They knew it was dangerous here, but wanted to stay here and observe. After all, it’s impossible to give up the clues you just got.

They suddenly heard a scream, and after a while, there was a chaotic howl, as if something had happened.

The flower waiter, Lan Fenghuang and Li Mingyang decided to take a look and walked straight into the hotel lobby. They saw an elf exuding black evil aura, holding a dagger towards a badger and weasel cub, and cruelly cutting open its skin with one knife. The little beast knelt on the floor and begged for mercy.

\"Stop!\" the flower waiter shouted.

The elf raised his eyes and glanced at the flower attendant, but ignored him. The black evil aura on his body became more intense, and his eyes turned completely black without pupils. He laughed strangely as if controlled by some kind of force.

"He is not normal. He seems to be controlled by black magic." The smuggler seemed to be very experienced in identifying his abnormality.

The three of them were all stunned after hearing this, but Flower Attendant wanted to confirm and was about to step forward. At this time, the elf rushed towards Flower Attendant with a dagger raised. Seeing this, Blue Phoenix immediately raised his hand, and several ice arrows wrapped in huge light beams formed by ice crystals were shot straight at the elf. The daggers held in the elf's palms immediately turned into countless and attacked Blue Phoenix. At the same time, the elf raised his With both hands, a barrel-shaped black mist formed under the hood, forming a bubble-like black ball, which immediately covered the whole body. The blue phoenix's light beam faced the black ball and sank in silently, and the attack was easily neutralized.

What a powerful black magic, Lan Fenghuang thought to himself. She waved her hand to release the Tower of Glory, recited the magic formula, and pointed a finger with her hand. The cold air and the black air intertwined instantly. The elf emerged from the black ball, but the cold air disappeared. The big ball transformed into countless small black balls. , floated towards Lan Fenghuang and several people, and they were all shocked.

Seeing that the black energy had moved away from the elf, Li Mingyang secretly used his magic to conceal himself and lurked behind the man. His thunder sword took hold of the elf's neck.

"My sword is poisoned. If the skin is even slightly broken, your life will be at risk. Hurry up and put away your black mist."

Clamped by Li Mingyang's steel-like arms, the thunder sword placed on his neck exuded a cold light. When the elf heard that there was poison on the sword, he immediately stopped casting spells. Upon seeing this, Flower Waiter and Lan Fenghuang hurried forward and tied the man with a rope.

"Tell me, is the technique you use black magic?" the flower attendant asked impatiently.

The elf lowered his head and said nothing, trembling slightly and looking a little confused.

"Tell me, who are you? Why do you do this black magic?" the flower attendant continued to ask.

The elf raised his head, showing fear and helplessness: "Hey, my name is Wende. I have practiced black magic, but I am also forced to do so. I am not as evil as you think."

"Forced? You're not innocent no matter what." Lan Fenghuang asked angrily.

Wende sighed: "I was controlled by them and had to absorb soul power as a last resort, but in order not to hurt the innocent elves, I could only find some small animals to replace them. I swear that I will never do anything to kill my compatriots."

"You said you were controlled by them, who are they?" Li Mingyang interjected.

Wen De was silent for a while, and finally said as if he mustered up enough courage: "Originally, I have been working in this hotel, but the hotel's business is bleak, and we can't live anymore. Such a hotel guest introduced me to the Black Protector Then give it a try and see if it can change my luck. I listened to his words and became a believer in black magic. They said that if a believer in black magic like me wants to practice powerful black magic, he must first absorb enough Soul power, and then let the protector to bless our skills. During this period, we must obey the order of the protector and accept his instructions, so that he will protect us from being bullied. When the black magic organization becomes stronger, by then we will Everyone is a meritorious official and can receive generous rewards.”

"Dharma protector? Who is he? Where is he?" the flower attendant asked eagerly.

"I only know that the protector is a man. Others call him Jinxiu. No one has seen his true face. His spell can make people die instantly. He has powerful cultivation. In our current organization, everyone will obey his orders." Wende told what he knew.

"You haven't finished answering my question yet. Where is Jinxiu and how can I find him?" The flower attendant could no longer control her excitement and pressed Wende's neck.

"Master Protector, I don't know where he is. I only know that believers like me come to the castle every month to receive the blessing of his skills and test the black magic skills." Wende felt the flower on his neck. He said helplessly.

"Where is the castle you mentioned? On what day did you all go to the castle?" The flower waiter felt that she could not wait to see it, so she immediately grabbed the brocade and asked for details.

"The castle is to the west of the Imperial City, not far from here. The next time we go to the castle will be in three days. Every time we start the ceremony at midnight." Wende had already made the flower attendant feel suffocated, and he tried his best to speak out. You know, I want to exchange for the hope of life. The flower attendant couldn't care less at this time. He took the sword from Li Mingyang and was about to wipe Wende's neck.

Li Mingyang stopped the flower waiter, and the three of them looked at each other, wondering why Li Mingyang stopped the flower waiter. Li Mingyang said that he could not kill Wende and asked him to take them into the castle. With Wende, entry would be more reasonable and it would be easier to get close to Jinxiu. After hearing this, Hua Shi didn't understand at first, but after she figured it out, she felt that she was too impulsive and kept thanking Li Mingyang for his help.

Li Mingyang felt that they must act as soon as possible, so Wende must cooperate with them to find Jinxiu. Otherwise, if they miss this opportunity, it will be difficult for them to get close to Jinxiu again. Under the inducement of Lan Phoenix's two pieces of gold, Wende finally gave in and decided to take the three of them to the castle, but there must be a reasonable reason, that is, to lie that they also wanted to join the organization. All three of them agreed to this proposal.

Just after returning to the palace, Li Mingyang received an anonymous letter. The words written on it made him feel that a powerful force in the dark had been monitoring him. The letter read: "A big conspiracy is about to unfold." , unavoidable, all I can do is remind you." Li Mingyang did not tell anyone about the letter, but silently asked Xingqing to pay attention to the people and things around him so as not to miss any details.

All this made Flower Waiter, Lan Fenghuang and Li Mingyang deeply realize that the black magic organization they were tracking was far more dangerous than they imagined.

Three days later, several people, led by Wen De, rushed towards the castle non-stop. The castle has been abandoned for many years, the stone walls are mottled and faded, the stones are covered with moss, and the gates are rusty. Although the interior is decadent, it is still clean. Someone has obviously cleaned it before. Although there is dust on the ground, it is not obvious. There are faded murals on the walls and some old flags on the railings.

Li Mingyang and the others found that many people were already inside, all wearing black masks, and their identities could not be confirmed. If it weren't for Wen De's introduction when entering the venue, the three of them would definitely not be able to enter. In order to be consistent with everyone else, the three of them also wore masks issued by the organization. It was almost midnight, and the dim lights in the hall made the atmosphere even more eerie. Wen De, who had brought them here, took advantage of their unpreparedness and ran away somewhere. Xingqing said that he had already escaped, presumably because he was afraid of revenge from the three of them. Li Mingyang has been talking to Xingqing, discussing new discoveries in the castle and analyzing the state of these masked men. Xingqing said that the person with the highest level in the castle now is in the late stage of spiritual transformation, and there are three or four in the early stage of spiritual transformation, and the others are all in mortal qi transformation. With this news, Li Mingyang felt a little more at ease. He didn't know what state this Jinxiu was in, whether it was It was easy to deal with, but I thought that with Xingqing and Lan Phoenix by my side, I wouldn't have to worry.

Suddenly, the lights in the hall flickered, and a tall, thin man wearing a black robe appeared in the center of the hall, floating in the air, chanting ancient spells, and the venue was enveloped in dark magic.

Li Mingyang felt nervous. He felt that this man exuded an evil aura, which made him shudder. He tried to stay calm, but found that his steps were beginning to tremble.

The flower waiter was calmer than Li Mingyang, freed from the restrictions of the spell, and stared at the man in black robe. She knew that this man might be Jinxiu, the black protector.

The man slowly raised his head, his whole person was shrouded in darkness and his expression could not be seen clearly. His eyes were filled with the power of dark magic.

Hua Shi was shocked. She knew that this man had powerful magic powers and could kill people instantly. She must find a way to get close to determine if he killed her mother.

Xingqing told Li Mingyang that the man just now was in the late stage of Immortal Feathering. When they dealt with it, the difference in level was too big. If they wanted to win, they had to outsmart him and not force him.

Lan Fenghuang also saw the state of this man, and secretly sent a message to Li Mingyang, saying that this man was left to her to deal with, and asked them not to act rashly.

After the party started, the man suddenly proposed that everyone in the venue be possessed and use their soul power to verify whether they were loyal to the organization. The flower attendant wanted to resist, but she felt a strong force surrounding her body, and her mind became blurred, as if she was being controlled.

The flower attendant's body began to tremble, knowing that her soul was being extracted. He tried to break away from the control, but the power could not resist, and he could only watch his soul being pulled out and absorbed by the man's body.

Li Mingyang saw that Hua Shi was being controlled and quickly asked Xingqing to help her. Soon, the flower attendant began to wake up and her soul returned to her body.

The sober waiter looked around the venue and suddenly noticed a strange man standing on the railing on the second floor of the hall. He was dressed in black and wore a mask different from theirs, and his evil aura was even stronger. The flower waiter quietly withdrew from the crowd and climbed to the second floor to face the masked man directly.

"Who are you?" the flower attendant asked, with a hint of vigilance in her tone.

The masked man didn't answer, but looked at the flower waiter coldly. His eyes became blood red, his skin became paler, and his muscles became stronger.

The flower attendant was shocked. She felt a more evil aura than the man downstairs. This masked man seemed to be more powerful.

"Have you been controlling the man downstairs to possess our souls?" The flower waiter saw that the man was unusual and suddenly guessed the crux of the matter.

The masked man slowly turned his head, his face was shrouded in darkness and his expression could not be seen clearly. However, from his eyes, Hua Shi saw a strong hostility and hatred.

\"You can, you actually escaped, but you can't now, your soul is very pure.\" The masked man said coldly, \"I want your soul power, don't resist, you can't escape. \"

Hua Shi's heart moved. She knew that what she thought was right, but she was not sure whether the masked man was Jinxiu.

"Who are you? Are you the protector of the organization?" Flower Attendant asked.

"You can call me Lord Protector or Lord Jinxiu. Little girl, are you ready?" Jinxiu finally acknowledged his identity.

"Sir, I have a question. I haven't figured it out yet. Aren't you trying to bless us with our skills? Why do you want to absorb our souls?"

"Haha, little girl, you are very good. After your soul is absorbed by me, you will become a dead soldier of the organization and will always be loyal to us. This time I am here to select clean souls and expand my team of dead soldiers. Do you understand?" Jinxiu always wants people to actively offer their souls, so that his control can be smoother.

The flower waiter was so angry that he could no longer listen. The long sword in his hand turned into a blue light and shot towards Jinxiu. He lightly dodged it. The flower waiter raised his hand and pointed at the colorful petals, which appeared like a waterfall and turned into hundreds of rays of light. Shooting at Jinxiu, Jinxiu showed contempt when he saw this scene. He sneered and took out a black ring from his robe. He still looked at the flower without thinking. The black ring immediately became several times larger and rotated towards the light of the petals. . There was a buzzing sound, and the black ring suddenly covered the hundreds of rays of light, spinning and digesting the power from those hundreds of rays of light. Jinxiu raised her hand gently, and directed a burst of energy at the flower attendant. She raised her sword to resist, but was knocked away. The fallen flower attendant regretted that she had to fight Jinxiu alone because of her lack of strength. The fight on the second floor attracted the attention of Li Mingyang and Lan Fenghuang. They ignored the ceremony and flew straight to the second floor.

"He is Jinxiu, catch him." The flower waiter was helped up by Li Mingyang and shouted loudly. Li Mingyang then took out the elixir, gave it to Hua Shi, and then joined the battle.

"I'll deal with it!" Lan Phoenix immediately launched an attack.

Blue Phoenix used the Glory Tower to blast Jinxiu with a large number of ice crystals and ice arrows. Li Mingyang deliberately let Xingqing possess him and use the thunder sword to attack, preventing Jinxiu from having a chance to release black magic. In order to prevent Lan Fenghuang from seeing that Xingqing was possessed, Li Mingyang used Shenyang to hide all his sword moves.

Jinxiu saw that Lan Fenghuang and the invisible Li Mingyang were both strong. If this continued, he might not be able to win smoothly.

He used the black ring to trap the ice crystals and ice arrows released by Blue Phoenix and consume the energy in them. But not seeing Li Mingyang's evil swordsmanship really put him at a disadvantage. After thinking about it for a while, he left temporarily and found another opportunity to defeat them all.

After making up her mind, Jinxiu released a cloud of black mist at the two of them when Li Mingyang appeared, and left the second floor with a smile. Looking at Jinxiu's evil and cunning smile, Hua Shi realized the disparity in power between the enemy and ourselves, and missed the best opportunity to catch her.

Immediately afterwards, soldiers and horses from the Imperial City arrived. It turned out that Blue Phoenix informed the Imperial City Guards before leaving, saying that an organization with black magic had gathered and wanted to take them down in one fell swoop. The Imperial City Guards quickly occupied the castle. , arrested many members of the organization, and also released some ignorant elves who had their souls sucked.

Flower Attendant, Li Mingyang and Lan Fenghuang, under the guidance of Xingqing, rushed to the deepest dungeon of the castle and started a life-and-death struggle with Jinxiu. Jinxiu's black magic was quite terrifying. Li Mingyang used Shenyang to sneak in quietly, allowing Flower Attendant and Jinxiu to sneak in. Blue Phoenix was behind, and when Jinxiu was about to escape from the castle through the waterway connected to the dungeon, Li Mingyang hit Jinxiu, causing him to be seriously injured and fell into the water prison. Then Blue Phoenix came and sealed his body with ice crystals, making him unable to use it. dark magic. At this time, the furious Jinxiu was trapped in the ice crystal, and tried to break through the sky to attack Hua Shi and others. Flower Attendant and Lan Fenghuang attacked from both sides with all their strength. Jinxiu had a pair of arms removed, and her body in severe pain could not support it and fell to the ground.

The flower attendant grabbed Jinxiu's head and forced her to admit whether she was the murderer of her mother. Jinxiu screamed extremely arrogantly, "It's just your idiot mother, hahahaha, she deserves to die. The master tried all his methods but couldn't pry her open." Her mouth, hahaha..."

Jinxiu used all her magic, self-destructed her body, causing space shock, and her body gradually dissipated. Although Jinxiu self-destructed, she still asked Hua Attendant to ask other members of the black magic organization about the whereabouts of the master behind it.

The man behind him came from an alien island. Hearing that someone from the Elf Kingdom was going to Mangshan to hunt for treasure, he had already set off for Mangshan. After hearing this, Hua Shi looked depressed. In order to fulfill her wish to avenge her mother, she finally decided to follow Li Mingyang, Lan Fenghuang and Xiaowu to find the lost ruins.
