Xuan Zi's roar was like thunder from the sky exploding among Valley. His feet suddenly exerted force, and Gluttonous Divine Ox's huge horn pointed directly at the black figure escaping hastily in front of him. His speed was so fast that a blurred afterimage was drawn in the air.
Rubble within a hundred feet radius was shaken into the air by the sheer force of the impact, and then fell in all directions like a torrential rain.
"Hahahaha, if you want to catch me, you'd better watch your students!"
Seeing that Xuan Zi's big hand was about to catch him, Death Messenger laughed evilly and raised his hands suddenly.
A ball of solid white light instantly burst out from his palm, split into four rays of light, and accurately enveloped the bodies of Chen Zifeng, Gongyang Mo, Xi Xi and Ling Luochеn on the ground.
At the same time, he flicked his fingers, and the figure with five Soul Ring flashing on its body suddenly shook violently as if it had been hit by a giant hammer.
But a strange scene happened at this moment. The fifth purple Soul Ring on his body suddenly shone, and the whole person turned into a wisp of gray-black smoke in the blink of an eye.
The smoke did not dissipate directly and escape, but instead pounced on Huo Yuhao not far away like a poisonous snake.
Although Huo Yuhao had always turned on Spiritual Detection Sharing, the opponent's speed was too fast. His Spiritual Power captured the trajectory of the smoke, but his body could not keep up with the reaction at all.
The next second, he felt that the world was spinning around him, and then he heard the roar of Xuan Zi coming from a distance, but his feet were suddenly empty. A bottomless hole was opened on the ground at some point, and he fell downwards along with the cloud of smoke.
A violent roar followed.
The bodies of the four disciples began to expand rapidly under the white light. This was a precursor to a household explosion!
Death Messenger actually doesn't even spare the dead, and wants to drain their remaining Soul Power and turn them into explosive fuel.
But this time, Xuan Zi was prepared. His Soul Power instantly enveloped the four corpses like a large invisible net, suppressing their expansion within a very small range.
Four dull explosions exploded almost at the same time, but he used his arrogant Soul Power to forcefully compress it to only a few feet, and not even a piece of the surrounding Rubble was blown away.
But because of this, the rescue operation for Huo Yuhao was slightly delayed for a moment.
When Xuan Zi's palm penetrated the layers of smoke and grabbed the hole, he only had time to touch the edge of the turned-up stone slab, and his fingertips were less than half a foot away from the corner of Huo Yuhao's clothes.
It was this half-foot that made his hand only grasp the cold stone slab.
Huo Yuhao and that Death Messenger have disappeared into the darkness along with the collapsed tunnel, Hongfei Mei Mei.
"You bastard! Don't let me catch you, or you will suffer the same consequences!"
Xuan Zi roared angrily, obviously using real fire, and punched the ground suddenly, shattering the upturned stone slab.
But he didn't dare to release too much Soul Power for fear of hurting the Huo Yuhao in the corridor below.
Just after such a delay, a series of violent explosions came from the underground tunnel. It was a trap pre-arranged by Death Messenger. The tunnel collapsed violently during the explosion.
The drastic change happened so fast that no one had time to react.
Xuan Zi suddenly waved his sleeves and swept away all the reserve team members who were rushing to help. He shouted sternly, "You hurry up and save people! I'll save Huo Yuhao!"
The leading teachers Wang Yan, Bei Bei and others stood on the edge of the messy battlefield, looking at the hell-like scene in front of them, all with red eyes.
There were a total of seven official team members. Except for Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng, who had the highest cultivation level and were seriously injured and unconscious, the other five were all killed in the battle.
Now even Huo Yuhao has been kidnapped by that Evil Soul Master.
Wang Yan's fists were clenched until his knuckles turned white, but he knew that the most important thing for him now was to stabilize the situation.
He suppressed his surging emotions and quickly directed the reserve team members to provide emergency treatment to Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng. At the same time, he sent a request for help to the military camp as quickly as possible.
On the other side, under the leadership of Jing Hongchen, the participating team of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy has entered the territory of the Star Luo Empire.
Each of them is using Flying Soul Tool, heading in the direction of Star Luo City, and the speed is not slow.
However, at this moment, Lu Ren stopped flying, and the pair of blood wings behind it stopped.
The edge of his Spiritual Power perception caught an extremely subtle vibration.
Spirit Domain Realm Spiritual Power made his range of perception far beyond ordinary Titled Douluo. Even at such a long distance, the drastic changes happening deep in the mountain range could not be hidden from him.
Could it be said----
Is it the place where Xuan Zi led the team and caused serious injuries to the students?
"Lu Ren, what's wrong?" Meng Hongchen turned his head and looked at him, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes.
"It's nothing, I just suddenly realized that I missed a good show." Lu Ren said cheerfully, and then shouted to Jing Hongchen who was leading the team in front, "Master, I'm going to go for a while and I'll be back soon."
"Why is this guy so sudden?"
Jing Hongchen frowned, but didn't think much about it, just waved his hand casually and let it go.
Even Jing Hongchen like Titled Douluo plus Level 9 Soul Engineer, there is no way to compare with Lu Ren in the field of Spiritual Power.
He could only vaguely feel something moving in an extremely distant place, but he was completely unable to sense what was happening as accurately as Lu Ren.
Not to mention that they are now extremely far away from the area where Shrek Inspection Corps is located. They are separated by who knows how many miles.
If Lu Ren's Spiritual Power realm had not reached Spirit Domain Realm, I'm afraid I wouldn't have noticed this movement.
After breaking away from the team, Lu Ren swooped down. After reaching the ground, he quickly dodged into a dense bush on the roadside. After confirming that no one was around, he launched Cursed Spirit Manipulation.
The shadow under his feet suddenly spread into the entrance of a dark space, and a figure wrapped in a thick black robe slowly rose from the darkness.
As soon as Kurourushi's countless orange-red cockroaches came out, they silently stared at Lu Ren, looking so cute and adorable.
Lu Ren subconsciously raised his hand to pat its shoulder, but as soon as he stretched out his finger, it suddenly froze in mid-air.
Because he saw the cockroach carapace vaguely exposed under Kurourushi's black robe. It seemed to be hard, slippery and disgusting to the touch.
The hand he just stretched out retracted three times faster than when he stretched it out, and at the same time he quietly took a step back, keeping a safe distance from it.
"Go, there is a prey you want to hunt in the distance. If you can, catch that Death Messenger in front of me. I need to use him to test if there are other uses for Cursed Spirit Manipulation. If the experiment is successful, then I can also get his Corpse Explosion Soul Skill."
When I think about the power of Corpse Explosion, if I can use it, even if I can only use it once, I can play its huge role after the game is over----
This made Lu Ren a little excited, but he seemed to remember something and stared at Kurourushi.
"By the way, if you meet Shrek people, you are allowed to eat them as you like."
"I don't care if you eat corpses, but other unrelated innocent people are not allowed to be touched!"
Kurourushi's compound eyes blinked dully, as if trying to understand the meaning of these instructions.
Then it nodded stiffly, and disappeared in a blink of an eye, running towards the distant mountains at an extremely fast speed.
The black robe made a hunting sound while moving at high speed, leaving only a faint trail of black mist slowly dissipating in the air.
"Let me see how strong your actual combat ability is, Kurourushi!"
Lu Ren narrowed his eyes and sent the black shadow disappearing into the distant sky.
After doing all this, he returned to the team calmly, with the careless smile still on his face, as if he had just gone to the roadside to solve a physical problem.
He even leisurely patted the non-existent dust on his clothes, and then flew back to the middle of the line.
Meng Hongchen saw him coming back and glanced at him gently, with a hint of teasing in his tone. "You really know how to choose the right time."
"People have three urgent needs. There is nothing we can do." Lu Ren spread his hands with an innocent look on his face.
Jing Hongchen Although it seemed that the time for this trip to urinate was a little longer than usual, he didn't think much about it. He just waved and said, "Keep on going and arrive at Star Luo City as soon as possible to avoid a long night and many dreams."
"Star Luo Empire is no better than Mingdu. There are many influencers from all parties here, so try not to create extraneous matters."
The team set off again.
At this moment, Lu Ren looks as calm as water, but his mind has already been completely connected to Kurourushi in the distance through Cursed Spirit Manipulation.
His field of vision was instantly switched to the first perspective of Kurourushi.
Dark images flooded into his perception. It was the unique wide-angle vision of insects. Up, down, left and right came into view almost simultaneously. The sound of the wind was amplified into a sharp whistling. Soul Power fluctuations left clear tracks in the air. The vibrations of the distant earth came one after another.
Kurourushi's speed is so fast that his figure flashes in the mountains and forests----
Lu Ren can have the first-person perspective of Kurourushi through the ability of Cursed Spirit Manipulation.
This feeling is almost like watching a live broadcast.
In just half a stick of incense, the chaotic battlefield in the distance had already appeared in Kurourushi's compound eyes.
The aura of Xuan Zi Wrath rose into the sky, the ground cracked, Rubble flew into the sky, and the bones of four Shrek students were scattered on the charred ground. The scene was a mess.
Death Messenger was holding Huo Yuhao hostage and was fleeing madly through the chaos of the tunnel explosion. He was so fast that even Xuan Zi couldn't catch up in the first place.
What makes Lu Ren even more dumbfounded is that with Xuan Zi Level 98 Super Douluo's ability, he really couldn't catch up with Evil Soul Master who only had the cultivation level of Soul King.
The serial explosions in the tunnel and the various interference traps arranged in advance forced Xuan Zi to be distracted to resolve these obstructions every time he launched a pursuit.
"As expected of you, you killed Xuan Zi's students in front of him, and you also kidnapped Huo Yuhao and escaped. You said you only had Soul King cultivation, who would believe it?"
Lu Ren looked at Death Messenger's triumphant face through the perspective of Kurourushi, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
"The title of the strongest Soul King in history belongs to you. Even I don't dare to play like this."
Then he saw Kurourushi start to take action.
On the edge of the battlefield, deep in the dense forest.
Death Messenger carried the unconscious Huo Yuhao and ran wildly through the forest, his heart filled with indescribable ecstasy.
Success!
He actually really kidnapped people under the nose of that Level 98 Super Douluo!
There are also poisonous fog and landslide traps in the tunnel under his feet that he has arranged in advance. Even if Xuan Zi catches up, it will be delayed for a long time.
By the time the old guy climbed out of the landslide, he would have disappeared.
"Jie Jie Jie!"
"I didn't expect that I really tied up the right person."
Death Messenger lowered his head and glanced at Huo Yuhao in his arms. Xuan Zi valued him far more than other students, which also made Death Messenger guess that his status was not low.
"With this kid here, no one from Shrek dares to touch me easily!"
"Just wait, Shrek Academy----I, Death Messenger, will repay today's revenge a hundredfold in the future!"
"You kill everyone in my bandit group, and I will bring your students back one by one!"
He laughed evilly and was about to urge Soul Skill to speed up and escape again.
However, at this moment, a dirty, cold, sticky, and terrifying aura with endless malice suddenly erupted from the depths of the dark forest ahead.
The aura Evil was actually weirder and stronger than any Evil Soul Master he had seen in his life.
Could it be said----
Is it similar to Evil Soul Master?
But if it's Evil Soul Master——there's something wrong with this aura!
Even his Evil cold aura is not as strong as his counterpart.
After realizing this, Death Messenger's expression suddenly changed, his feet suddenly stopped, and he almost threw Huo Yuhao out of his arms due to inertia. "Who?!"
He raised his head suddenly and saw a figure wrapped in a dark robe, which had blocked the path ahead of him at some point.
The large black robe covered its body, revealing only the head of a strange cockroach.
Countless orange-red compound eyes flickered like will-o'-the-wisps in the darkness, locking on him coldly and hollowly, and their slender tentacles swayed gently in the air, as if tasting the fear in him.
"I chovy!"
Seeing that it was such a big cockroach creature, standing like a human being, and even wearing a black robe, Death Messenger almost instinctively blurted out a curse word.
What scene has he never seen in his life?
Soul Master, who died under Corpse Explosion, was either a hundred or eighty, but the scene in front of him was so beyond common sense that it scared Death Messenger so much that he broke into a cold sweat.
"What the hell are you?!"
This thing actually looks more like Evil Soul Master than him!
In front of it, you are not even qualified to be called Evil Soul Master, right?
Death Messenger's mind was shaken violently at this moment.
Especially Kurourushi's aura, this level of oppression, just standing in front of it made him feel that his Soul Power's operation was somewhat stagnant.
The opponent is at least Soul Douluo level, maybe even higher.
But he has never heard of such a strange creature on the mainland, or Martial Soul of Soul Master----
That's not right either. Whose Soul Master and Martial Soul could be a cockroach?
Even if it is, then it is impossible for Soul Power to practice, right? How rubbish that must be!
Could it be that someone used Martial Soul Avatar to turn themselves into this?
In Death Messenger's understanding, only this reason can explain it.
Kurourushi did not answer his question. Under the black robe, a cockroach with a hard shell and sharp barbs on its joints slowly poked out.
The strange hand held a rusty iron kitchen knife in its claws, which looked like a rotten iron kitchen knife just picked out from the garbage dump.
The blade glowed with an ominous light under Moonlight.
"Hiss----"
Kurourushi let out an inhuman scream, the sound was so sharp that it seemed to pierce the eardrum, "I like the smell of iron!"
The moment the voice fell, it struck at a super high speed that was too fast to be caught by the naked eye!
The black robe dragged out a long black afterimage behind it, and the cockroach's forelimbs clawed at Death Messenger's face.
Death Messenger didn't even have time to release Soul Skill. He only felt that his eyes were blurred, and a fatal crisis poured from head to toe like ice water, locking his soul in an instant.
"No!!"
Death Messenger desperately urged the fifth Soul Skill to turn into smoke and escape again, but it was already too late.
The speed of Kurourushi is also outstanding among Special Grade Cursed Spirit. Coupled with the dual blessings of Cursed Energy and Soul Power of Lu Ren, and its own integration of part of the power of Necromancy in its evolution, the strength of Kurourushi has far exceeded its original level.
The cockroach's forelimbs drew an arc in the air, accurately grabbed Death Messenger's head, closed his five fingers, and pulled him towards her.
"Ah!!!"
The shrill screams echoed through the mountains and forests.
Death Messenger felt as if his head was tightly clamped by a hydraulic clamp, and his skull whined unbearably under the pressure of the carapace fingers.
He lost his balance at this moment, and the severe pain caused his hands to involuntarily loosen. Huo Yuhao flew out of his arms and fell into the bushes not far away.
Kurourushi stepped forward and turned suddenly as if it were equipped with a spring. The other cockroach's forelimb caught Death Messenger who was about to land, and then carried him on his shoulders with his backhand.
His movements were crisp and neat, like carrying a bag of potatoes.
After doing all this, it turned around and left.
Because its main task is to capture Death Messenger, everything else can be put aside.
However, in the next second, a terrifying pressure suddenly came from a distance like the earth was shattering.
It's the breath of Xuan Zi!
Kurourushi felt the presence of Xuan Zi at the first time.
That's Level 98 Super Douluo's entire murderous intent is locked on it without reservation.
Kurourushi's fighting instinct screamed frantically to warn it:
This human being cannot be defeated head-on.
So Kurourushi decisively threw Death Messenger on his shoulders to the ground, and then countless cockroaches poured out from under its black robe, overwhelming Death Messenger like a black tide, and instantly engulfed Death Messenger's body.
Those cockroaches carried Death Messenger on their tiny backs and carried it away at great speed.
Then Kurourushi turned his attention to Huo Yuhao who fell in the bushes.
Its compound eyes swept over Huo Yuhao's body, sensing the rich iron scent in the young man's blood.
That's his favorite flavor!
It decisively stretched out the cockroach's forelimbs and grabbed Huo Yuhao.
"Iron, I like the taste of iron!"
At this moment, a ray of yellow light pierced the sky, and Xuan Zi's body hit the ground like a cannonball.
"Stop!"
With a loud shout, Xuan Zi raised his hand and a Soul Power shock wave hit the extremely powerful Soul Power shock wave, accurately hitting Kurourushi's forelimb extending towards Huo Yuhao, crushing it directly from the wrist to pieces.
Black carapace fragments and sticky Cursed Energy liquid splashed everywhere.
Kurourushi jumped back decisively and widened the distance the moment his palm was crushed.
Although it does not have the complete Brain and IQ of humans, at the level of Special Grade Cursed Spirit, it already has a considerable degree of combat sanity.
Xuan Zi protected Huo Yuhao behind him and quickly checked that the boy was still breathing. Then he raised his head and finally saw clearly the appearance of the creature in front of him.
The moment he saw Kurourushi's appearance clearly, Xuan Zi's face immediately twisted as if he had seen a ghost.
"Cockroach, cockroach?"
His voice was out of tune from excessive shock.
"It's actually a cockroach? A cockroach that can stand, walk, wear clothes, and use weapons. Wait, could it be said that your Martial Soul is a cockroach?"
Even Huo Yuhao, a usually calm young man, saw the true face of Kurourushi the moment he woke up. The next moment, he turned pale with fright.
Then Huo Yuhao passed out again.
Brother, just let me continue to sleep.
Huo Yuhao I wish I could throw away the memory I just had Brain.
That cockroach's face is so impactful. This visual impact is too strong for a two-year-old child.
Even Sky Dream Ice Silkworm in Huo Yuhao Sea of Consciousness was shocked.
"No, how can there be a bug with the same consciousness and intelligence as me? The key is that I still can't feel the age of it Soul Beast----"
"Brother Sky Dream, this is really scary." Huo Yuhao said with a bitter look on his face, "I'd better hide in Sea of Consciousness for a while."
"Tsk, it's just a cockroach. What's so scary? Isn't my body also a bug?" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm said disdainfully.
"Well----I still like Brother Sky Dream better than that cockroach." Huo Yuhao complained, "After all, it is too ugly."
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm said proudly, "Hmph, that's right. Do you think every insect is as good-looking as my brother?"
Huo Yuhao: "----, at this time, on the battlefield, Kurourushi did not give any positive answer when faced with Xuan Zi's question.
Its broken cockroach forelimbs are regrowing at a speed visible to the naked eye. A new carapace squirms out from the fracture, and the bones are spliced together quickly, returning to their original shape in just a breath.
Kurourushi tilted the cockroach's head, blinked countless compound eyes at the same time, and asked stammeringly in broken human language, "Why are you attacking us?"
