The wind grew stronger and stronger.

In the end, it blew the hoods off all three figures.

Then, three somewhat illusory figures appeared in Xiao Tianci's sight.

"Just as I thought. I knew you were all neither human nor ghost."

Xiao Tianci smiled as he looked at the three illusory figures.

The three from the Soul Hall had no physical bodies. All of them were in soul form.

And at this moment, their soul forms were far more transparent than before.

Xiao Tianci could even see the scenery behind them through their bodies.

Seeing that their forms had been exposed, the three Soul Hall members flew into a rage.

They exchanged glances.

Immediately, an immense amount of black mist poured from their bodies.

This black mist was clearly different from what they had released before.

Faintly, something within the black mist could be heard howling miserably.

Xiao Yan, hiding to one side, felt a stabbing pain in his mind merely from hearing those miserable howls!

Alarmed, Xiao Yan hurriedly withdrew his gaze and only dared to watch the black mist from the corner of his eye.

The three streams of black mist merged together in midair.

Very quickly, the merged black mist became much denser.

The miserable howls also grew increasingly frequent, and as the mist churned, it constantly changed shape.

"Ten Thousand Souls Unity, Blood Soul, appear!"

The three Soul Hall members roared in unison, their hands rapidly forming seals.

The black mist changed shape faster and faster, while the howls within it became increasingly distinct.

Those howls seemed even more agonized than before, as if souls were being forcibly torn apart.

Xiao Yan revealed a pained expression. Even watching the black mist from the corner of his eye, he could still sense the roars within it.

He took a deep breath and released a strand of Dou Qi, firmly protecting his ears and forming something like earplugs. Only then did he barely block out the howls.

Only then did some color gradually return to Xiao Yan's face.

As the souls of the three Soul Hall members became increasingly transparent, the black mist swirling in the air gradually took the shape of a gigantic soul.

"Roar!"

The instant the soul appeared, it let out a thunderous roar.

Black mist surged as the roar spread through the air, even forming ripples that rushed rapidly toward Xiao Tianci.

However, before the sound waves reached Xiao Tianci, they were effortlessly blocked by golden light.

Seeing that the soul had finished forming, the Dou Wang realm Soul Hall member at the front produced a jade bottle from somewhere.

The stopper was opened, and a drop of dark-red blood flew from the jade bottle before plunging into the gigantic soul.

The soul immediately turned red.

Its aura rose steadily!

"Since you forced me to use this move, you can die without regrets!"

Although the Dou Wang expert's soul had become almost completely transparent, he still let out a vicious laugh.

His eyes were also filled with intense hatred.

He had thought this capture would be a sure thing. Who could have expected that while the target's cultivation was not particularly high, his overall strength was terrifyingly powerful?

Especially that enormous Dharma Image, which gave him an unprecedented sense of oppression.

Fortunately, it was all about to end.

After receiving the unknown blood, the gigantic soul rapidly expanded until it was nearly as large as the Brahma Dharma Image!

"Go!"

The Soul Hall member formed a hand seal, and the gigantic soul charged fiercely toward the Brahma Dharma Image!

As blood mist surged, it actually formed a trail of blood along its path!

"You think this alone can kill me?" Xiao Tianci glanced at Yun Yun, who was leaning against a tree and looking increasingly weak.

He knew he could not delay any longer.

As the soul rushed in, a cluster of flame suddenly ignited upon the enormous Brahma Dharma Image.

The flame was not bright and looked no different from an ordinary fire.

Yet when it touched the blood-red soul, it immediately coiled around it!

The red mist rapidly evaporated.

The blood-red soul roared, but it was utterly unable to stop the flames from burning.

"How is this possible?!"

This development greatly exceeded the expectations of the Soul Hall members, and terror filled their eyes.

This flame was not any Heavenly Flame they knew of, yet its ferocity was far beyond anything they had expected.

It could even burn souls. It was practically the nemesis of the Soul Hall!

"Samadhi True Fire. I don't care whether you're flesh or soul—I'll burn you all to ashes!"

Xiao Tianci's gaze sharpened as his thoughts shifted.

Just as the blood-red soul burned rapidly, the Brahma Dharma Image extended another finger and pressed it onto the blood-red soul!

"Boom!"

Before the horrified eyes of the three Soul Hall members,

the gigantic blood-red soul exploded with a deafening bang!

Great masses of blood-red mist scattered in every direction.

Yet before that mist could drift very far, it was completely incinerated by the Samadhi True Fire!

Soul power spread from the center of the explosion like waves.

The three Soul Hall members, already extremely frail, had their soul bodies fluctuate violently merely from being struck by the blast's aftershock.

At this point, they had weakened to the extreme and could no longer release even a single attack.

Xiao Tianci withdrew his hand seal, and the gigantic Brahma Dharma Image behind him gradually dissipated.

As the golden light vanished, the suffocating pressure finally dispersed.

With a spread of the wings on his back, Xiao Tianci arrived before the three Soul Hall members.

The expressions of the three Soul Hall members changed drastically.

Even the blood-red soul they had relied on most had been effortlessly blown apart by Xiao Tianci.

They were no different from lambs awaiting slaughter now.

"What kind of flame was that?" Xiao Yan asked instinctively.

"I don't know what that flame is either. I've never heard of it in the Heavenly Flame Ranking, but it feels even more powerful than my Bone Spirit Cold Fire."

Yao Lao's voice finally sounded in Xiao Yan's mind.

"Teacher, are you all right?" Xiao Yan was overjoyed.

To be honest, when Yao Lao had been absent just now, all sense of security had vanished from Xiao Yan's heart.

He felt that he could not even withstand the aftershocks of the battle. The gap in strength was simply far too great.

"Yes. Those Soul Hall people have weakened to the limit. They can't detect me now." Yao Lao nodded.

While the two were speaking,

the three Soul Hall members had already scattered in three different directions, each fleeing for their lives.

However, after flying into the air, all three weakened souls came to an abrupt stop.
