“Yun Wuyai, send a signal and have all your Qingyun Sect disciples come. There will be a lot of looting of this kind in the future, and it’s too much work for just the few of you!”
After David finished speaking, he threw a thousand storage pouches to Yun Wuyai, saying, “These resources are for you. Behave yourself, and your Qingyun Sect will have a place in the Third Heaven in the future!”
“Thank you, Master Chen! Thank you, Master Chen! I am willing to be Master Chen’s dog!” Yun Wuyai was overjoyed.
Yun Wuyai hurriedly sent a message to his disciples in the Qingyun Sect, urging them to come immediately!
“Let’s go too” David knew it was time to head to their next destination!
Just as David and his group were about to leave, the heavens and the earth suddenly shook violently, the blood-red sunset was swallowed by dark clouds, and ash-black mist rose from the destroyed walls and ruins of the Barbarian King’s Palace.
David felt a cold aura penetrate the clouds. The aura was not as ferocious as that of the ancient barbarians, but it carried a precise and mechanical sense of killing intent, as if countless dead souls were wailing within the mist.
“Be careful!”
Hu Mazi protected Huo Jingjing and Mo Qingyun behind him, the compass needle on his waist spinning wildly. “This is not the spiritual energy fluctuation of this demon soul!”
Three dark figures emerged from the mist, resembling human figures stained with ink, their bodies entwined with fine white chains of light, each chain ending in a faint soul flame.
They didn’t even glance at David and the others, but walked straight towards the pile of ancient barbarian cultivator corpses, their withered fingers reaching for the air.
The souls that had not disappeared were pulled by invisible threads, turning into specks of blue light that flowed into the black gourds hanging from their sleeves.
Yun Wuyai’s pupils suddenly narrowed, then he pulled David’s sleeve and whispered, “Mr. Chen, these three people must be from the mysterious organization I once told you about.”
The man in black moved with incredible speed, and in the blink of an eye, he had robbed the souls of hundreds of corpses in the square.
One of them suddenly stopped, his gnarled finger pointed at a treasure chamber located deep within the Barbarian King Palace: “The remnant soul aura is here.”
The three followed closely towards the treasure room, ignoring the scattered immortal stones and spiritual herbs, and headed straight for the stone slab carved with totems.
The leader of the men in black took out a rusty bronze bell and shook it slowly—the “ding-a-ling” sound was not loud, but it made the Red Cloud Demon Lord in David’s sea of consciousness suddenly utter a curse: “Damn it! This is the’Soul Locking Bell,’ an evil artifact designed specifically for dealing with souls!”
The golden patterns on the stone plate flickered violently, and the soul of the ancient ancestor was pulled out from the crack in the stone by an invisible force, turning into a ball of light that struggled in the mouth of the bell.
