Chapter 1007 The soul killing begins!
As soon as I heard this muffled voice, I knew it belonged to Yang Xu.
Among Xiao Zhi and his party, Yang Xu has just passed through the tribulation and became the Demon Lord. He is the weakest and has the smallest number of spiritual stones stored in the storage ring.
"I still have some here. I'll get some for you." This was Shi Chong's voice.
"Thank you, Lord Shi." Yang Xu said in a muffled voice.
"No need, you are already a Demon Lord now. From now on, you and I can just call you fellow Taoists." Shi Chong's voice said.
After a few simple exchanges, silence returned to the surroundings.
Xiao Zhi continued to study the soul-killing technique.
This soul-killing technique only has tens of thousands of words. With his current memory, it is very easy to write down these tens of thousands of words without missing a single word. But if he wants to give it to Studying it thoroughly is not that simple. It takes much more time than writing it down.
Time continued to pass, and he didn’t know how long it had passed. Xiao Zhi vaguely heard Yang Xu’s muffled voice again: “I’m almost out of spirit stones.”
"I don't have many spiritual stones left." This was Shi Chong's voice.
"Old Ghost Shi, how many spirit stones do you have left?" said the cold voice belonging to Venerable Kui.
“There are less than 1,000 pieces left.” said the voice belonging to Shi Chong.
“So few?” said the cold voice belonging to Venerable Kui.
"Old Ghost Kui, it's not like you don't know that I have been in seclusion for a long time and the spiritual stones on my body have been almost exhausted." The voice belonging to Shi Chong said.
"I still have more than 3,000 spirit stones with me, and I will give you 1,000." The cold voice belonging to Venerable Kui said: "Xu'er, you also take 1,000 spirit stones."
"Okay. "
"Yes, Master."
"Fellow Daoist Li, do you have any spirit stones on your body?"
"No," said the voice belonging to the demon Li Kuo.
In order to resist the terrifying high temperature in the Tianxuan Evil Furnace, everyone consumes a lot of energy in their bodies, but this consumption is continuous.
The spiritual stone crisis is already emerging.
'Fortunately, I still have more than 30,000 spirit stones in my body. With these spirit stones, we can still sustain ourselves for a while...' Xiao Zhi thought to himself.
At this time, Dutian was outside the Xuansha Furnace.
This is the edge of Cangzhou Road, a stretch of green hills.
There is dense vegetation in the green mountains, and above a relatively flat rock, a bronze alchemy furnace more than ten feet high is floating in the sky.
This bronze alchemy furnace is slowly rotating, emitting cyan light.
Beside the alchemy furnace, Taixuzi was sitting in the air, stretching his hands forward and pressing down, continuously injecting true energy into the alchemy furnace.
Around Tai Xuzi, there were several people standing in the air. These people were all wearing black and gold embroidered Shenmen Venerable clothes, and they were all staring at the alchemy furnace.
They have been staring at this alchemy furnace for a long time.
At this time, a stream of light flew past in the sky not far away, flying from north to south.
This is a golden elixir monk, but he turns a blind eye to the abnormalities below, because there is a barrier in this area. This barrier was created by Taixuzi himself, let alone a mere one. Even ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators can't see through it.
Killing fellow sect members is a taboo of the sect. It must be done secretly and must not be known to outsiders.
Therefore, those who can appear here are all Tai Xuzi's confidants, but there is no Venerable Shenmu among them.
Venerable Shenmu used to be Taixuzi's confidant, but since he came into contact with Xiao Zhi, and after a while of flirting, Taixuzi no longer trusted him.
"Master, it's been three hours, and still no one has come." A middle-aged monk wearing a dark black embroidered gold Taoist uniform said softly.
"No one will come. In this Tianxuan evil furnace, no one can send messages to the outside world. No magical power or any means will work." Tai Xuzi said calmly.
Another Shenmen Venerable wearing black and gold embroidered Taoist uniforms said: "Tai Xuzi, when you first started to use this divine furnace to refine Xiaozhi, there was still some movement inside, but now there is There is no movement. Could it be that they have been refined by the divine furnace and turned into coke and fly ash?"
"That's not it." Tai Xuzi said calmly: "They should still be alive, but... They tried all kinds of methods to no avail When you break the wall, you will know that doing so is just a waste of true energy, so you will stop to reduce the consumption of true energy, save your true energy, and survive. "
If Xiao Zhi is present. If you say so, you can keenly hear from what Taixuzi said. Taixuzi should only have a superficial grasp of the control of the Dutian Xuansha Furnace, so he cannot accurately judge the life and death of the people in the furnace. Can only rely on guessing.
Another Shenmen Venerable wearing black and gold embroidered Taoist uniforms smiled lightly and said: "It's definitely not safe in just a few hours, but with the power of the divine furnace, it should be possible in three days at most. This Xiaozhi was turned into charcoal.”
“Three days? Fellow Taoist still underestimated this Xiaozhi. According to the message from fellow Taoist Xuancheng, this Xiaozhi forcibly took away many Nascent Soul cultivators. I guess I have gained a lot of spiritual treasures and storage rings, and with these spiritual stones, and with Kui Laogui and Shi Laogui, I estimate that Xiaozhi may be able to survive for seven days." "Again. A Shenmen venerable from the Taixu lineage spoke.
"Seven days?" Taixuzi smiled faintly and said, "Seven days are too few. To be on the safe side, I will use this furnace to refine it for seven or forty-nine days before I give up."
"Seventy-nine days?" The Nascent Soul monks present had expressions of surprise on their faces.
Taixuzi’s move can really be described as being as steady as an old dog.
A Nascent Soul monk from the Taixu lineage said in a rather sighing tone: "On the 77th and 49th, even if there is a god in the furnace, it will probably be refined alive, right?"< br>
All the Nascent Souls laughed when they heard this.
Time continues to pass minute by minute.
In the Dutian Xuansha Furnace, the temperature has already reached an ultra-high temperature of tens of thousands of degrees Celsius.
Here, let alone ordinary copper and iron, even treasure soldiers cannot withstand such high temperatures and will be burned instantly.
Even if the spirit treasure is exposed to such terrifying high temperatures, it will probably be refined away.
Although the temperature inside the stove is high, it seems unusually quiet.
The four great Nascent Soul-level combat powers, Master Kui, Shi Chong, Demon Demon Li Kuo and Yang Xu, are holding together. With the laws of their respective fields, this place is more terrifying than hell. In the closed space, a small space with a radius of less than one foot was built, a small pure land.
Outside is a terrifying high temperature of tens of thousands of degrees, but inside this small piece of pure land, the temperature is neither cold nor hot, very pleasant, and even ordinary people can survive.
Venerable Kui, the four Nascent Soul-level combat powers, sit cross-legged in the four corners, with Xiao Zhi sitting in the center.
Because Venerable Kui and the others tried their best to free up the space, the place where Xiao Zhi sat was quite spacious and did not seem crowded.
At this moment, Xiao Zhi slowly opened his eyes.
As Xiao Zhi opened his eyes, Venerable Kui and the others, who were sitting cross-legged in the four corners, all opened their eyes as if they were feeling something.
"Brother Zhi, how are you doing with your soul-killing skills?" Yang Xu said in a muffled voice, with a trace of expectation in his eyes.
When others looked at Xiao Zhi, there was also a trace of expectation in their eyes.
Now Xiao Zhi has become the hope of everyone present. If Xiao Zhi succeeds in killing the soul, they can break through the furnace wall with Xiao Zhi and escape. If they are lucky, they can also take revenge on Tai Xuzi and kill him. Got this Tai Xuzi. If Xiao Zhi fails to kill the soul, then everything will be over, everyone will die here, and will be refined to death by this terrible Dutian Xuansha Furnace, with no bones left!
Under the expectant gazes of Master Kui and others, Xiao Zhi showed a smile on his face and said: "Success, I have completely mastered this soul-killing technique."
While speaking, he saw a bit of golden light suddenly appearing in front of him.
Everyone looked closely and found that it was a short golden blade that was thinner than a hair.
This golden short blade looks like a flying knife, more like the kind of scalpel that Xiao Zhi has seen in the real world.
Xiao Zhi opened his mouth and explained: "This is the soul-cutting knife that I condensed through the soul-cutting technique. I can cut off the soul with this knife, cleanly and neatly, without breaking the connection."
In fact, , as early as more than an hour ago, Xiao Zhi had already thoroughly understood the soul-killing technique that Zhenlan Cannian taught him.
The reason why I only opened my eyes now is because Xiao Zhi is cautious by nature, and he has studied and understood this soul-slaying technique several times, making sure that there is nothing unclear and nothing missing. He didn't give up until he had completely understood it.
"What a magical knife, Brother Zhi, this soul-cutting knife is probably condensed from your soul." Yang Xu said.
"Well, it is my soul that condenses this soul-cutting sword." Xiao Zhi nodded.
"If you, fellow Daoist Xiao, succeed in killing the soul, can you teach me this soul-killing technique?" Master Kui suddenly said in a cold voice.
"Of course." Xiao Zhi said with a smile: "I am of the Yuxu lineage, as long as someone reaches the stage of killing souls, I can teach him this soul-killing technique!"
With a thought in his mind, he called up his character attribute panel, glanced at it, and found that there was no trace of the [Soul-killing Technique] in it.
That was the case before, and it is still the case now.
One possibility is that Zhen Lan left it behind, and the [Soul-Slaying Technique] passed on to me may have errors or omissions, or may be incomplete.
There is another possibility, that is, from the perspective of the sentient being system, this [Soul-Slaying Technique] can only be regarded as an experience note related to soul-slaying, and is not qualified to be a 'skill book'.
Of these two possibilities, Xiao Zhi is more inclined to the latter possibility, because if he becomes a god, Zhenlan Cannian will have many benefits.
If Zhenlan’s residual thoughts kill him, it will be harmful but not beneficial!
So, Zhenlan Cannian had no reason to harm him.
With these thoughts flashing through his mind like lightning, Xiao Zhi took a deep breath, and with a thought, a crystal clear snow lotus petal appeared in front of him out of thin air.
Before Xiao Zhi passed this token and contacted Zhenlan Cannian, he heard Venerable Kui say in a cold voice: "Fellow Daoist Xiao, I have learned something about this soul-killing thing from Friend Daoist Li. Understand, this is a very dangerous process that requires extremely high willpower. I think you might as well take a rest first and wait until you are full of energy before doing the soul killing thing!"
Xiao Zhi pointed out! He nodded and said: "I think so too, but before I rest, I still have some questions and I need to ask him."
The person Xiao Zhi is referring to is naturally Zhenlan Cannian.
Zhenlan Cannian was quickly summoned by Xiao Zhi, transformed into the face of a handsome man, and talked with Xiao Zhi.
About a quarter of an hour later, the handsome man's face transformed into a crystal clear snow lotus petal, which was stored in the storage ring by Xiao Zhi.
Xiao Zhi waved his hand, and there was a crash, and countless spiritual stones emerged out of thin air, with spiritual energy and milky white light.
"Friend Xiaodao, who are you?" Shi Chong asked.
Xiao Zhidao: "Thank you so much for protecting me. It's just a spiritual stone. I hope you can accept it."
"But this... is too much." Shi Chong road.
He glanced at it and saw that the spiritual stones in front of him had piled up into a hill. There were so many spiritual stones, estimated to be tens of thousands!
Xiao Zhidao smiled lightly and said: "My soul-killing may take a long time. If the spirit stones are not enough, we will not be able to survive until that time."
Venerable Kui He nodded, his voice was thick He said coldly: "That makes sense. If that's the case, then we will accept these spiritual stones." A spiritual stone was pushed in front of Venerable Kui.
Venerable Kui was not polite. With a wave of his hand, the pile of spiritual stones disappeared out of thin air and was stored in his storage ring.
Next, Xiao Zhi sent a bunch of spiritual stones to Shi Chong and Yang Xu each.
After doing all this, he took out the Demon Lord’s peak-level Mo Jiao meat jerky, performed the [Whale Swallowing Technique], ate several large pieces of Mo Jiao meat jerky in one go, and then removed it from the storage ring. He took out a jar of clear spring water and drank it happily before giving up.
After he had eaten and drank enough, Xiao Zhi sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and began to let his mind wander and rest.
I don’t know how long I slept this time, but Xiao Zhi was awakened by a faint shout.
Indistinctly, a voice called him: "Mr. Xiao Zhi, Mr. Xiao Zhi, what is your situation now, where are you now?"
Xiao Zhi regained consciousness instantly after being awakened by the sound.
After waking up, he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.
In his current situation, there is no way he can return to the real world, and calling him is useless.
Xiao Zhi slowly opened his eyes, and through his thoughts, he sent a message to the demon Li Kuo: "Brother Li, how long have I slept this time?"
"Master, you are I slept for two hours this time." Li Kuo replied to Xiao Zhi through his thoughts.
‘Two hours...enough! ’ Xiao Zhi thought.
He slowly sat up straight, his eyes shining brightly!
Senior Kui and the other four people also opened their eyes at this moment and looked at Xiao Zhi.
“Are you ready to start?” Shi Chong said.
"Yeah." Xiao Zhi hummed softly.
After sitting cross-legged for a moment, Xiao Zhi thought, and a crystal clear snow lotus petal appeared in front of him out of thin air.
The snow lotus petals soon emitted a shimmering light and transformed into the face of a handsome man.
The handsome man glanced around, his eyes fell on Xiao Zhi, and said: "Have you practiced the soul-killing technique?"
"Yes, you have." Xiao Zhi nodded.
The handsome man said with a face: "Wait a moment, I will find a safe place to stay first, and then I will look for you."
"Okay." Xiao Zhi nodded.
The handsome man's face turned into snow lotus petals again, and the light became dim.
Xiao Zhi closed his eyes to rest and began to wait.
He was not made to wait long, less than half a quarter of an hour passed before the snow lotus petals bloomed again and turned into the face of a handsome man.
The handsome man looked at Xiao Zhi and said, "It's time to start."
Thank you Qihua for the reward.
