Chapter 661: Furious Soul Hall Venerable

Seeing their slow movements, he asked doubtfully: "What's wrong with you? If you hadn't gone to kill those two severely injured Battle Venerables earlier, and collected the body and soul of that three-star Battle Venerable, and come to support me sooner, we might have been able to keep all of them."

Hehe, don't pursue a desperate foe; now that we've gained so much, we should first leave here and go back to digest these spoils. After all, if we were to encounter reinforcements from other Soul Hall experts during the pursuit, the three of us would be in trouble.

Lin Feng gave a light chuckle and immediately replied.

In that case, let's leave this place quickly.

Hearing his tone, it seemed this harvest was extremely abundant; moreover, Soul Hall experts might arrive here at any moment to reinforce, so Feng Qinger no longer bothered with those fleeing Soul Hall experts and said to the two.

Faced with the colossal Soul Hall, she also had to muster twelve points of spirit.

Now that we've obtained good things, naturally we should first take them back to digest for safety.

But before that, we still need to destroy this branch hall. After all, only taking the souls and ignoring everything else makes the purpose too obvious; it hardly looks like we came for revenge.

As he spoke, Lin Feng's gaze fell upon the great hall below.

After all, just moments ago, he had impersonated someone from Xiao Yan's side in front of the Soul Hall Dharma Protectors.

In that case, he definitely had to keep up the act.

Taking advantage of the situation, he would turn his attack on the Soul Hall and theft of souls into Xiao Yan's revenge against the Soul Hall, sending people to destroy the Soul Hall branch.

Anyway, that guy Xiao Yan is always thinking about the strange fire on him and Xian Er, and had even ambushed their group before.

Therefore, it was also a good opportunity to think of ways to give Xiao Yan something to do, diverting his attention.

Now that he had finally come across such an excellent opportunity, how could he let it slip away right under his nose?

Upon hearing this, the beautiful eyes of Xiao Yixian and Feng Qinger also turned toward it.

Immediately, the two women raised their jade-white hands and gently pressed down toward the great hall below.

Accompanying the women's movements, two massive battle qi silks, each over a hundred zhang in length, suddenly condensed in the air and then fiercely slashed down toward the black great hall.

"Boom—"

The two powerful battle qi silks collided with the great hall, instantly erupting in a heaven-shaking explosion.

The originally majestic and towering Soul Hall branch instantly turned into a pile of bricks and stones.

Even the massive stone pillars supporting the hall shattered with a crackling sound in a burst.

However, Feng Qinger and Xiao Yixian did not stop there.

Instead, they continuously released battle qi silks like before, incessantly bombarding the black great hall below.

Under the frantic bombardment of the two high-ranking Battle Venerables, the originally towering structure below now remained only as scattered bricks and tiles.

Seeing this, Lin Feng immediately said: "That's about enough; let's go."

He glanced briefly at the smoke-filled ruins below, then turned and hurried back the way they had come.

Upon hearing this, the two women also ceased their destruction, closely followed Lin Feng, and left the place.

And after Lin Feng and his two companions had left this place for about several hours, in the air above a mountain peak not far from the Nether Demon Mountain Range branch, space fluctuated slightly.

Immediately, several figures shot out and finally arrived at the former location of the great hall.

Among them were the three Battle Venerables who had fled earlier.

However, at this moment, the majestic and towering black great hall they remembered had long since ceased to exist.

What remained on the spot was only a huge pit and a large amount of broken bricks and tiles.

Seeing this, the leading blue-clad figure's face instantly darkened.

Behind him, the three Battle Venerables who had fled earlier were filled with anger, regret, and a hint of fear in their eyes.

After all, judging from the current situation, the hundreds of thousands of soul bodies imprisoned in the Nether Demon Mountain Range branch were surely gone.

Moreover, the two eighth-rank alchemist souls that had been painstakingly captured were likely also gone.

"Over a hundred Dharma Protectors of the branch had painstakingly gathered souls for decades, plus the two eighth-rank four-colored alchemist souls that a dozen or so venerable elders had fortuitously captured—now they've all been released at once by that Xiao Family brat's men. If this reaches the Hall Master's ears, even I will surely not fare well!"

The blue-clad man, upon seeing the ruins created by Feng Qinger and Xiao Yixian below, said with a darkened face.

At this moment, he still had no idea that the souls had been taken by Lin Feng, assuming they had all been released by Xiao Yan's subordinates.

After all, when those venerable elders who had escaped earlier reported to him, they said that Xiao Yan had sent people to the Nether Demon Mountain Range branch to seek revenge.

Therefore, he naturally assumed that this wreckage before him was the work of Xiao Yan's subordinates.

Afterwards, the blue-clad man seemed to recall something.

His figure suddenly turned into a black shadow, shooting out and finally slipping into the ruins of the great hall.

His action left several Battle Venerables present stunned.

Immediately, they also realized he was going to inspect something.

Thus they hurriedly followed him, arriving amidst the broken bricks and tiles.

However, when everyone saw the sole empty pit before the wall, their faces all turned slightly pale.

They certainly understood that not only had the tens of thousands of ordinary souls and the two eighth-rank alchemist souls inside this branch been taken away,

but also the soul origin formed from absorbing two to three hundred thousand soul bodies had been lost as well.

One must know, losing that many soul bodies would already merit a punishment from the Soul Hall severe enough to make them drink a pot.

But now the charge has added another count of losing the soul origin.

One can imagine that in the coming days, they will certainly not have an easy time.

Upon seeing the scene before him, the blue-clad man suddenly erupted with a mighty aura.

As that force surged skyward, the already gloomy air of heaven and earth instantly became even colder.

Faintly, tiny raindrops pattered down from the sky.

But this strange change was not due to some rare treasure appearing in the Nether Demon Mountain Range.

Rather, it was solely because this person, relying on the vast battle qi within his body, provoked a change in the energy of heaven and earth.

"A bunch of useless wastes, incapable of success but excess in failure—now they've even caused this Venerable One to suffer punishment alongside you!"

After a moment of silence, the blue-clad man suddenly turned his body and launched a tirade at the several Battle Venerables behind him.

And with the former's anger erupting, the cloud masses above the horizon all became a bit more gloomy.

This branch hall within the Youmo Mountain Range, although merely the lowest-ranked Earth Fiend Hall among the Central State branch halls.

But the number of souls collected remains not to be underestimated.
