Top Grade Magic Tool, Hundred Soul Banner

The ghost mist rolled, and such a vast display of power had long since attracted the attention of the zombies in the residential area.

However, due to the sun not having completely set at this moment, the zombies did not immediately take action.

Lu Yan's expression was as usual as he stepped towards the center of the residential area.

As the first building entered the range of the ghost mist, the number of vengeful souls released within the ghost mist had reached seventy.

A large number of vengeful souls instantly rushed into the building, harvesting all of the more than two hundred ordinary zombies within a few seconds.

The mid-stage Qi Refining transcendent zombie let out a startled roar, but dozens of ghost claws extended from the black mist-filled void, piercing into the transcendent zombie's body.

The transcendent power protecting the soul shattered almost instantly. The attacks of dozens of Second Layer Qi Refining vengeful souls were simply not something a mere mid-stage Qi Refining transcendent zombie could resist.

The soul was extracted in an instant and sent into the rolling ghost mist to be refined.

The entire process lasted less than ten seconds. All the zombies were cleared out, leaving only piles of white bones and the souls being refined.

Lu Yan's steps did not pause at all as he continued towards Building Seven in the very center.

He was like the grim reaper wandering in the ghost mist. With every step he took, a large number of zombies were harvested, leaving only wandering souls on the ground waiting to be refined by the soul banner.

Inside Building Seven, the peak Qi Refining transcendent zombie, Blood Beard, hadn't even had time to react before all the zombies in the entire residential area had died, leaving only Building Seven, which had not yet entered the range of the ghost mist.

"Roar!!!"

Blood Beard instantly became furious. The large number of deaths among his subordinate zombies reminded him of what had happened in the residential area before.

"It's that thief!"

In his rage, Blood Beard disregarded the scorching sunlight outside. A large number of fleshy tentacles behind him flew wildly as he charged towards the spreading ghost mist.

Lu Yan only saw an afterimage flash by. As Blood Beard stepped into the ghost mist, streaks of flowing light, like moonlight, rose around its body.

Dozens of vengeful souls rushed towards Blood Beard, but they were all repelled by the transcendent power around Blood Beard's body. In just a few seconds, it had already approached Lu Yan.

Lu Yan could even smell the rotten stench on Blood Beard and see the tentacles formed from twisted flesh, but Lu Yan's expression remained calm.

"Bang!!!"

A violent collision sound rang out just over thirty meters away from Lu Yan. Like a mountain collapsing and the ground splitting, a large section of the floor was lifted, creating a deep pit on the spot.

And on Blood Beard's path forward, a tall figure, like a solid city wall, blocked the way. It was the Soul Banner's Main Soul Warrior!

Thanks to the warrior's loyalty in helping suppress the backlash of the vengeful souls, after resolving the crisis of the vengeful souls, Lu Yan spent considerable effort cultivating him. The zombie wandering souls that the soul banner didn't have time to refine all fell into the warrior's mouth.

Compared to before, the warrior's body had grown nearly twice as tall, exceeding four meters. His body was clad in black armor, like a guardian deity, and his cultivation had also reached the Sixth Layer of Qi Refining, just a step away from entering the late stage of Qi Refining.

Being within the soul banner's ghost mist, the warrior, as the main soul, could receive the enhancement from the High-Grade Magic Tool. Coupled with the defense of the Ghost Armor Art, he could withstand Blood Beard's attacks.

Having successfully blocked Blood Beard, dozens more vengeful souls flew out from within the soul banner. Meanwhile, Lu Yan was holding a spirit stone tightly in his hand to replenish his consumed mana and maintain the existence of the vengeful souls.

The overwhelming vengeful souls instantly submerged Blood Beard. Every second, hundreds of ghost claws pierced into Blood Beard's body, and the transcendent power protecting its soul dimmed at a visible speed.

The saying "ants can kill an elephant with numbers" was fully materialized at this moment. Moreover, although the Second Layer Qi Refining vengeful souls were not as strong as Blood Beard, they were by no means ants.

Blood Beard finally felt unprecedented fear.

The transcendent power around its body instantly erupted, shaking off a large number of vengeful souls, and Blood Beard rapidly ran towards Building Seven.

As Blood Beard let out a roar, hundreds of zombies poured out from Building Seven. These were the only zombies left in the residential area.

The moment the zombies appeared, the twisted flesh tentacles behind Blood Beard flew out and pierced into their bodies.

Corpse after corpse was strung together by the flesh tentacles, forming a colossal zombie composed of embedded corpses, its body exceeding twenty meters.

"What kind of transcendent ability is this?"

Lu Yan's pupils trembled, revealing a look of shock for the first time.

He could clearly sense that this colossal zombie was not an empty shell. The moment it formed, the Peak Qi Refining aura of the Blood Beard Zombie subtly began to break through towards the Foundation Establishment stage.

"I absolutely cannot let him break through!"

Lu Yan's expression was solemn. Over two hundred Vengeful Souls poured out from within the Soul Banner, and the Ghost Mist spread, engulfing the colossal zombie.

A ferocious look appeared on the face of the Warrior in front. His dark armor gleamed with a cold light. The next moment, a blurry armor appeared on all the Vengeful Souls.

Talent Spell · Ghost Armor Art!

Over two hundred Vengeful Souls, empowered by the Ghost Armor Art, charged towards the colossal zombie.

The colossal zombie raised its massive hand made of corpses. The transcendent power on it was almost tangible as it slammed down towards the numerous Vengeful Souls. The old buildings collapsed under the transcendent power.

The next moment, sky-piercing wails erupted. Within the Ghost Mist, it was like a hellish purgatory.

The wail of one Vengeful Soul might only scare ordinary people, but if over two hundred Vengeful Souls wailed together, it was enough to shatter the souls of Late-Stage Qi Refining experts. Even the colossal zombie's movements instantly froze.

In just a brief moment, over two hundred Vengeful Souls had already latched onto the colossal zombie's body, their sharp ghost claws attempting to pierce through the transcendent power surrounding Blood Beard.

And at this moment, a sinister smile appeared on Blood Beard's face. Dense transcendent power erupted again from the twisted tentacles behind him, drowning the two Vengeful Souls at the very front.

The remaining Vengeful Souls were also completely blown away. If not for the protection of the Ghost Armor Art, that single blow would have been enough to annihilate dozens of Vengeful Souls.

Lu Yan's eyes shifted slightly, and he immediately ordered:

"Do not attack the transcendent zombie, strip the souls of those ordinary zombies!"

As his voice fell, a large number of Vengeful Souls detached from the pursuit of the flesh tentacles, like locusts, they disappeared into the body of the colossal zombie. Their ghost claws hooked and stripped the souls of the zombies one by one, turning them into decaying white bones.

Blood Beard tried to stop them in horror, but he found that there were simply too many of these Vengeful Souls, and they could ignore physical attacks. The transcendent power he alone could mobilize was simply unable to stop them.

As more zombies turned into white bones, the massive colossal zombie collapsed like building blocks. Without the external force supporting it, over two hundred Vengeful Souls' ghost claws pierced into Blood Beard's body.

The soul of a ferocious-looking zombie was forcibly stripped from its flesh, and the rotten flesh turned into stark white bones.

Lu Yan put down the second Spirit Stone that had been drained and waved his hand, recalling most of the Vengeful Souls.

Only the Warrior held the Blood Beard Zombie's soul in his hands, respectfully offering it to Lu Yan.

The Ghost Mist began to contract, engulfing the Blood Beard Zombie's soul. The Main Soul refinement had begun.

The sky gradually darkened. As the bright moon slowly rose, the Soul Banner in Lu Yan's hand began its final transformation.

The banner surface seemed to be woven from the night, with golden threads outlining a scroll depicting a hundred ghosts walking at night. On either side of the Soul Banner, two miniature evil spirit statues, shrunk dozens of times, hung like ornaments.

One had a green face, fangs, and a sturdy body, like a guardian deity.

The other was covered in a blood-red robe with numerous ghost shadows, as if it embodied thousands of ghosts.

Both evil spirit statues had their eyes closed, as if in deep sleep.

A ray of moonlight spiritual light descended from the night sky. The magic tool bathed in the moonlight. As the two evil spirit statues opened their eyes, spirituality was born within them.

The Top Grade Magic Tool, Hundred Soul Banner, was complete!
