Chapter 249: Seeking to Upgrade the Soul to Seven‑Grade

Where did all this nonsense come from? Starting now, I ask and you answer, otherwise I'll let you taste the flavor of having your soul burned by strange fire again.

Invisible flames surrounded Lin Feng as he spoke lightly.

You dare kill me? The Soul Hall will definitely not let you off.

Protector Tie looked at the calm Lin Feng ahead and threatened.

At the same time, a trace of extremely strong killing intent flashed in his eyes.

How much soul origin would this brat need to recover from putting him in such a state?

He swore in his heart that if he could return to the Soul Hall, he would definitely find a way to gather four or five protectors to jointly kill this brat.

Moreover, before handing over the soul, he must torture it severely first.

Heh, it seems you usually rely on the Soul Hall as your background, acting arrogantly out of habit, and still haven't faced reality.

Facing Protector Tie's threat, Lin Feng gave a light laugh and then increased the flame power on the invisible chains again.

After all, the Soul Hall protector's soul is weak; previously, if he ever encountered a weak enemy, he could still use it to perform some Soul Hall fighting techniques.

Protector Tie, who had developed a psychological shadow from being tortured by the fallen Xiao Yan, blurted everything out all at once like spilling beans.

Immediately, the fire net shrank, compressing these souls within.

They must absorb all these soul origins completely, then go ask Tian Du Nan the reason for the troop advance.

As the heart flame pulled open the mouth of the soul sack, the souls inside came out with a faint sound, streaming out continuously.

In order to guarantee his own soul power, he could successfully breakthrough to the first‑grade realm in one go.

You know this branch hall is extremely far from the Yun Chuan Empire, located within the Heaven Heart Empire, a place called the Heaven Burial Ravine. Outside is the junction of Central State Xiao Lu and Xi Bei Xiao Lu, lacking a Space Wormhole; at no time will your protectors and elders pass through this Space Wormhole to return to both places.

Although I've read the original work, I still have no memory of the address of the Soul Hall's branch hall in the Xi Bei Xiao Lu region.

Protector Tie was about to scold loudly, but recalling the deep bone‑marrow pain just now, he immediately gritted his teeth and spoke unwillingly.

He glanced around; although the outside of the cave was rather dark and hot, the space was quite small.

Just as these souls were about to flee this place, upon encountering the tangible flame shield sealing off the seven directions, their screams were instantly cut off.

After persisting for a few minutes, Protector Tie decisively chose to follow his heart, slowly calling to stop the latter.

Some time earlier, the heart flame found a naturally formed cave on a mountain peak and immediately flew into it.

Therefore, he could only ask the Protector Tie behind him.

Therefore, it's still better to keep it for now.

Seeing him yield, the heart flame again reduced the fire.

Thinking of this, the fallen Xiao Yan surged out rapidly from within the heart flame.

I originally still planned to inquire about the fate of the Xiao family brothers.

The heart flame smiled slightly; beneath the unfamiliar strengthening‑weakening fire chain lay the fallen Lin Feng.

After a brief thought, the heart flame decided to first use up the souls on both sides of these soul sacks.

Therefore, of those hundred thousand souls, those whose strength after birth reaches the Fighter rank or below constitute about one‑seventh...

Even if that group wasn't wiped out then, tomorrow one would still see that the tribe could continue to exist in that world.

You... this soul origin was bestowed not long ago by the hall master.

The remaining soul origin is enough for me to advance to the seven‑star Dou Zong.

Ah... stop... stop, you say, you've confessed everything...

Boom!

Hiss... ah!

After being tempered and compressed by the fallen Lin Feng, this mass of souls still hasn't... only two or eight heads, small big.

While speaking, a trace of regret flashed in Protector Tie's eyes.

The light weight of the medicine cauldron caused even the cave to tremble slightly.

Today, I want to refine enough little soul origin.

Seeing that he still hadn't obtained the desired information, the heart flame immediately shoved the cursing Protector Tie into a jade bottle again.

Mainly because those people's postnatal strength is truly too high; among them, about one‑eighth, left or right, have never even reached the Fighter level.

After a while of roasting, Lin Feng looked at the extremely weak soul body before him, tossed the jade bottle in his hand, and asked: 'Where does the soul origin inside this bottle come from?'

Where is the branch hall of the Soul Hall responsible for that land?

Xiao Yan satisfiedly nodded, then flicked his finger heavily on a storage ring.

To aid his own soul power, break through to the first‑grade realm!

Lin Feng nodded slightly and continued asking: 'Then why did your hall master bestow it on him, while you are the one absorbing it?'

Immediately, under the heart flame's control, it was thrown into the medicine cauldron, and the flame inside was ignited just before a muffled sound.

Because in that cruel world, if a tribe's lower and middle‑rank forces are completely lost,

If I had known earlier that that big kid would come behind, I would have...

The raging flames were continuously smoking and roasting the souls within...

Seeing this, the heart flame waved his hand, and a tangible fire net was scattered in a winding manner over the heads of the many souls.

After a moment of contemplation, the heart flame asked again.

The flames scorched the souls, producing a small amount of white smoke that continually condensed within the shield, making the visibility around the heart flame almost zero.

As the light flashed, a huge, tiny red medicine cauldron covered entirely with patterns of various roaring magic beasts heavily fell onto the ground before my face.

Whoosh...

Thinking of this, the heart flame then went on to manage the affairs of the Xiao family brothers.

As for the lower ranks of the Snake‑People Tribe, they would also prioritize rescuing tribe members with weaker combat strength.

But Xiao Yan kept transferring it all to the branch hall master of that region; now it's estimated to be on the way to the Soul Clan.

Hearing that, Protector Tie gritted his teeth, shook his head hesitantly and said: "That's a secret of the Soul Hall; if it's exposed, your appearance will be very miserable; this protector advises him to inquire more about those matters."

And upon hearing that, Xiao Yan's brows furrowed instantly.

The scorching heat on the chains caused the former's body to continually emit a hissing sound, and the miserable cries rang out again.

That is the Xiao Family brothers you seized below, as ordered; upon the former hall master Xiao Xi's approval, it was granted to you. Originally I intended to absorb it all, but after absorbing a portion and before reaching Seven-Star Dou Zong, I heard a report from the soul messenger that the Heavenly Poison Man suddenly had a change, so I gave up continuing to absorb and went to investigate the cause.

In controlling the heart-flame, with me as the center, a circular shield was formed to prevent these souls from escaping.

He turned his palm over and again took out a white bag that was neither cloth nor non-cloth.

After all, they were all transferred to the hands of such weaklings, and I also took charge of them.

The hissing sound rang out again, and Xiao Yan's miserable cries also rose accordingly.

Only after refining about a hundred thousand souls did the heart-flame stop.

After all, even some low-strength members of the Snake-People Tribe could mutually cover each other and escape.

Ah!

I suppose those people were the elderly, strong women and children of the Snake-People Tribe's lower strata, slaughtered by the two small empires' armies.

I currently do not have enough souls under my command.

After doing all that, Xiao Yan worried that his subsequent actions would disturb Zi Yan, so he headed toward a nearby famous mountain range.

Before sealing the fallen Lin Feng, he directly tossed it into the storage ring.
