Chapter 69: Exterminating the Human Hall

The Burial Corpse Mountain Range seemed like a cursed land, shrouded year-round in heavy mist.

That mist was like substance, exuding a bone-piercing chill.

The Human Hall of the Soul Hall was hidden in the deepest part of this mountain range.

Yun Yi arrived alone, silently descending into the sky above the Human Hall.

He wore a set of black robes, his cold face devoid of any expression.

Only a pair of eyes, flashing with sharp light like cold stars, scanned everything in the Human Hall.

Immediately after, his hands rapidly formed seals, and he chanted softly.

"Kill God Domain!!"

In an instant, a majestic, flood-like blood-red energy surged explosively from within his body.

That energy was like a massive barrier covering the sky and blocking the sun, instantly sealing off the entire space where the Soul Hall's Human Hall was located tight and secure.

Once the Kill God Domain was opened, without his permission, no one could leave.

"Who are you? Daring to trespass into the Soul Hall's Human Hall! Tired of living!"

The Soul Hall's Venerables detected the anomaly and stepped out from the hall one after another.

Their pairs of eyes flashing with cold, gloomy light, like hungry wolves in the darkness, stared viciously at Yun Yi in mid-air.

However, before they could react further, Yun Yi's figure flashed past.

"Ah!!!"

Accompanied by miserable shrieks, these normally lofty Venerables were now like fragile ants, spitting blood and falling to the ground, their life force severed.

"Who exactly are you? What audacity! Daring to run wild in my Soul Hall!"

Accompanied by a roar of extreme anger, the Second Heavenly Venerable Bone Ghost and the Grand Heavenly Venerable finally appeared.

The Grand Heavenly Venerable's pupils trembled with rage, his whole body emitting a bone-chilling aura of a superior.

Bone Ghost's face was gloomy as ink.

His eye sockets were deeply sunken, like two deep black holes, exuding a spine-chilling sinister air.

The two of them stared dead at Yun Yi at this moment, their eyes seeming to want to spit fire.

It had been a very long time since anyone dared to come looking for their Human Hall.

"Your memory is really terrible."

Yun Yi's whole body was shrouded in killing intent, his true appearance unclear.

At this moment, the corner of his mouth curved slightly upward, drawing a disdainful cold smile, his eyes full of contempt, "The matter at the Blood River before, and your Soul Hall Branch being destroyed — forgotten so completely in such a short time?"

"So it's you!"

Hearing this, the Grand Heavenly Venerable's face instantly turned pale, a trace of deep fear involuntarily flashing in his eyes.

He never expected that this person who dared to charge alone into the Soul Hall's Human Hall would actually be that mysterious Strongman who had caused the Soul Hall to suffer heavy losses multiple times.

"Hmph!"

Yun Yi let out a cold laugh.

He spoke no further, abruptly raising his palm; a terrifying power rapidly condensed in his palm.

Immediately, an illusory blood-colored giant palm formed in the sky, pressing down ruthlessly toward the Grand Heavenly Venerable and Bone Ghost.

The Grand Heavenly Venerable and Bone Ghost's faces changed drastically, a pressure they had never experienced before pressing down on them at this moment.

They could clearly sense the extremely terrifying power contained in this strike.

Immediately the two hurriedly circulated the Dou Qi throughout their bodies, light blazing around them, trying to block this terrifying blood-colored giant palm.

However, the combined power of the Grand Heavenly Venerable and Second Heavenly Venerable was merely a mantis trying to stop a chariot before Yun Yi.

Yun Yi's palm directly turned them, along with the entire Soul Hall Human Hall, into dust in an instant.

For a time, dust billowed, rubble flew, and the originally gloomy and majestic Human Hall instantly became a pile of ruins.

Having done all this, Yun Yi waved his large hand, a blood light enveloping the area, releasing all the souls imprisoned in the Human Hall.

Those souls, as if gaining new life, fled in all directions within the blood light.

Yun Yi was not worried that those souls would reveal his identity after leaving.

After all, Yun Yi was currently shrouded in blood light; these souls couldn't even see his appearance.

"Looks like it should be underground as well."

Yun Yi likewise tore open the entire ground of the Human Hall, revealing the huge space below.

Here, he found the Human Hall's Soul Origin.

This Soul Origin was a full half-zhang in size; amidst the flashing light, it seemed as if countless souls were struggling and roaring within.

Compared to the one obtained at the Branch Hall last time, this Soul Origin was stronger by who knows how many times; the soul power contained within even made Yun Yi slightly moved.

After obtaining it, Yun Yi's figure flashed, quickly leaving this place.

Kill God Domain unlocked.

The entire Soul Hall's Human Hall was left with only dead silence.

Not long after Yun Yi left, the space above the Human Hall twisted and fluctuated again.

A figure walked out.

This person was the Soul Hall's Deputy Hall Master, his face cold, his eyes revealing a gloom.

"Unexpectedly... it's the Human Hall's turn to have an incident..."

He looked at the mess before him with a heavy expression, brows tightly knit.

Then he couldn't help but let out a long sigh, lamenting, "With so many things happening now, even I will probably face severe punishment from the clan..."

"Just who is this divine being, daring to strike at our Soul Hall repeatedly like this."

"The Soul Hall's prestige absolutely cannot be trampled just like this!"

He clenched his fists, then, after confirming that the Soul Origin here had also been taken, stepped into the void once more and disappeared.

And by this time, Yun Yi had already arrived at an extremely hidden place in Zhongzhou.

He sought out a remote Mountain Peak.

At the summit of the Mountain Peak, Yun Yi carefully arranged layer upon layer of defensive formations, ensuring absolute safety, then began refining this Soul Origin.

With the experience from last time, this refinement proceeded much more smoothly.

Yun Yi sat cross-legged, placing the Soul Origin before him.

He slowly closed his eyes, regulated his breathing, let his state of mind gradually grow calm, then began refining.

Several days passed.

The power within the Soul Origin was almost completely absorbed by Yun Yi.

When that final wisp of soul light cluster was fully absorbed, a wave of invisible fluctuation, as if heaven and earth had just opened, surged out from within Yun Yi's body like a raging storm, sweeping across heaven and earth.

This fluctuation was powerful and terrifying; the surrounding space, like fragile glass, was instantly twisted and deformed.

And at the same time, a vast invisible fluctuation, like heaven and earth, also spread out silently like a storm, centered on that Mountain Peak.

Yun Yi's Soul, at this moment, stepped into the Heaven Realm Perfection realm.

Yun Yi slowly opened his eyes, joy flashing within them.

He clearly sensed the change in his Soul.

Heaven Realm Perfection.

When battling others, the Soul can leave the body.

A thought moved, and invisible Soul power instantly spread out like a tide, like an invisible great net, swiftly enveloping the surroundings.

Within a thousand-li radius, everything was taken into his sight.

As if he were personally present in every corner.

He continued extending his Soul perception, and scenes ten thousand li away also gradually emerged within his Soul vision.

Those being spied upon detected nothing, still busily going about their own affairs, completely unaware they had already been peered at by a Soul power.

At a certain moment, a burst of scorching heat suddenly came from the depths of Yun Yi's Soul.

Following this sensation, he probed outward, and saw a range of towering mountains and steep ridges appear within his Soul vision.

But the sky above this place, space presented an extremely twisted feeling.

Faintly, a milky-white light seeped out from within that twisted space.

"Pure Lotus Demon Flame?"

Yun Yi instantly understood where this place was.
