Chapter 265: Soul Condensing Jade, the Third Most Dangerous Place

There was a lot of fighting going on in the distance, and Chen An had already discovered Mu Yanshi's presence.

Looking at the short figure in the distance, controlling three puppets of different shapes and suppressing two underworld beasts, Chen An couldn't help but marvel in his heart.

The strength of the Nether Beast is one or two points stronger than that of an ordinary cultivator who has reached the Perfection of the Void Refinement Stage. A puppet can be on par with it. Such strength is truly rare.

If it weren't for the concern that killing the Nether Beast would also damage its Soul-Releasing Spirit, which would affect the refining of its Soul-Releasing Spirit, the Nether Beast on the opposite side would probably have died long ago.

With such powerful strength, it is no wonder that Mu Yanshi did not hide it at all and dared to hunt the underworld beast directly near the crack of the Ghost Gate.

Even so, Chen An still sensed several faint auras hidden in the darkness nearby.

Hiding so secretly, it is obvious that these people have bad intentions, but not everyone is like him, who is just watching the fun.

At this moment, when Mu Yanshi was sure of victory and Chen An was about to leave.

One of the dark beasts roared and broke free from the puppet. It glared at Mu Yanshi, and its size and aura suddenly increased, and its momentum almost doubled!
Chen An stopped in his tracks when he heard the voice and touched his chin. The situation of the dark beast in front of him was so similar to the changes of the first evil soul Qilin he encountered!
Needless to say, the power of the Nether Beast must have accumulated to a certain level, and under the extremely dangerous pressure, it began to absorb the Shenpo in its body on its own.

When encountering this situation, the best outcome is that the power of the Nether Beast will skyrocket and the situation will be reversed. The worst possible outcome is that the Nether Beast will take this opportunity to break through and become a being that crushes everyone.

Faced with the changes before his eyes, Mu Yanshi looked stunned and obviously did not expect it.

After a moment of daze, his reaction was quite quick. He first killed another dark beast with the force of thunder, even ignoring the soul-melting spirit in its body.

Then, gather all the puppets to fight against the mutated underworld beast together.

"boom!"

But what was surprising was that after a few rounds, the Hades Beast slapped one of the puppets with its claws, leaving a deep claw mark.

No one knew what material the puppet was made of, and it was not greatly affected by the attack. It rushed forward again, but its movements were a little sluggish compared to before.

The previous attack obviously damaged some core parts of the puppet.

It is precisely because of this that there has been a subtle change in the offensive of both sides.

Chen An was watching with great interest, trying to guess how Mu Yanshi would react next. After all, it was impossible for a puppeteer with extraordinary strength to have only these few tricks.

The figures that had been hiding before suddenly appeared and surrounded Mu Yanshi.

Seeing this, Master Mu Yan laughed instead of getting angry: "My fellow Taoists from the demon clan have been hiding for so long, probably just waiting for this moment. I wanted to deal with you later, but I didn't expect you to jump out."

"Death is approaching. I wonder how long you can keep laughing." The leader of the demon clan said with a gloomy look in his eyes.

Six people against one, even with three puppets it's six against four, the chances of winning are still great.

"That depends on when they die."

Mu Yanshi smiled sinisterly, and the ground beneath his feet suddenly shook a few times. Then three puppets drilled out from deep underground and trapped the six people in the middle.

"I said this person is quite capable and not as simple as he seems."

"What are you afraid of? Although the puppet is powerful, it cannot be used infinitely. Once the spiritual power is exhausted, it will be nothing more than a pile of scrap metal."

"This guy was exhausted in the previous battle, the advantage is mine"

"."

The fight between the two sides was about to break out. Master Mu Yan calmly controlled the six puppets and fought fiercely with the six monsters, and used the mutated underworld beast to disrupt the situation from time to time.

Caught in this battle, Mu Yanshi not only did not realize that he was under siege, but his expression was calm and composed.

Chen An felt that this person might have a backup plan, but who wins or loses didn’t matter much to him.

Seeing Chen An was about to leave, Xuanjizi asked, "Fellow Daoist Chen, don't you want to see who wins?"

"It's the same. When you and I tried to subdue the Talisman Beast just now, there was quite a lot of noise. No matter who wins or loses, they will attack you and me afterwards."

"If you don't want to die here, you'd better leave quickly."

After leaving a few words, Chen An left and disappeared without a trace.

"Interesting boy, but I wonder if he can leave Shenglin Island alive."

Seeing Chen An leaving, Xuanjizi did not plan to stay here any longer. As Chen An had just said, no matter who wins, they will inevitably attack them.

After leaving, Chen An wandered around the gates of hell.

I found a place with few people and where the frequency of the Hades Beasts appearing was relatively low, and concentrated on hunting them.

The evil spirits and alien species here are not easy to form, but they have accumulated for thousands of years, so their number is not small. Just hunting in the past one or two years is far from the point of extinction.

As long as you look around, you can always find one or two underworld beasts nearby.

The nearby underworld beasts, because they are very close to the gates of hell, contain twice as much spiritual energy in their bodies as the evil spirits from other places.

It is precisely because of this that many powerful monks are attracted here to hunt down underworld beasts.

Chen An swept through the Ghost Gate for more than ten days and hunted two underworld beasts, gaining some results.

If this continues until the explosion of the dark energy ends, it is estimated that the body soul obtained will exceed 100!
This is enough for ten Void-Refining cultivators to break through to the Fusion stage!
"Ao Lao Si! If you continue to be aggressive, don't blame me for being rude!"

Suddenly, two figures appeared in the distance, chasing each other, and the person in front said impatiently to the ones behind.

Unexpectedly, the man behind him had a golden glow on his head, like a golden dragon. He flew into a rage after hearing this: "My name is Ao Jin, not Ao Lao Si!"

"You are the fourth child in your family, so what else can you call me if not Ao Lao Si?"

"Stop talking nonsense. Is the stone you just picked up the Soul Condensing Jade?"

"None of your business!"

When Chen An saw that Jiang Xiong had a conflict with a five-clawed golden dragon monk, he curled his lips and left quietly.

Similar situations occur almost every once in a while, and this is the third one in the past few days.

He came here to merge his spirit and soul, and did not want to cause trouble. In order not to get easily involved in trouble, he would stay away from it every time.

"Soul-condensing jade!"

At this moment, a clear and surprised voice sounded in Chen An's ears.

Chen An pretended not to hear and continued on his way, completely pretending not to hear.

But the voice in the sleeve hurriedly said: "If it is the Soul Condensing Jade, you help me get it, and I will agree to any conditions you give!"

Seeing that Chen An was unmoved, the voice from his sleeve became obviously anxious.

"Fellow Daoist Chixia, do you remember me now?"

Chen An suddenly felt amused. No matter how he called out before, Fairy Chixia did not respond at all.

Now that he heard the movement of the Soul-Condensing Jade, he could no longer endure it.

Wearing the Soul-Condensing Jade for a long time can slowly enhance the strength of a cultivator's soul, making the mind more stable, resisting the invasion of evil spirits, and is of great benefit to improving the realm of the soul.

In addition, the Soul-Condensing Jade can also be used to nourish the soul when the cultivator encounters a catastrophic disaster and only a wisp of soul remains. If the cultivator uses supernatural powers to reshape the body in the future, it can also enhance the fit between the new body and the soul, greatly reducing the unstable factors in the reconstruction process.

The reason why Fairy Chixia is so anxious is probably because she wants to obtain the Soul-Condensing Jade to prepare for rebuilding her body in the future.

"I'm really sorry. I was weak some time ago and fell into a deep sleep. I just woke up not long ago, and I haven't had time to thank Fellow Daoist Chen for saving me from the barbarians."

Perhaps realizing her current situation, Fairy Chixia's tone became a little more humble.

Chen An nodded slightly, but did not say anything, still walking at a leisurely pace. This time, Fairy Chixia became even more anxious: "Fellow Daoist Chen, please help me. I will definitely reward you handsomely when I return!"

Not only did Chen An not respond, he sped up instead.

"You...you..." A faint sobbing sound could be heard from the sleeves.

Chen An said helplessly: "One of them is the adopted son of Emperor Jiang, and the other is a member of the Five-clawed Golden Dragon tribe. How many lives do I have to fight with them?!"

"It's not impossible for you to join forces with Jiang Xiong and help him fight off the dragons, and then buy the shares at a reasonable price afterwards."

"no!"

"why not?"

"I have a grudge against Jiang Xiong."

Fairy Chixia was silent for a moment, then said, "How about joining forces with the Dragon Clan to kill Jiang Xiong?"

Chen An smiled: "That's even worse. I have a grudge against the dragon clan."

Hearing this, the voice in the sleeve suddenly fell silent.

"Why do you have a grudge against everyone? I wonder how you survived on Shenglin Island."

"Don't worry about who I have a grudge against. At least I haven't been beaten to the point where my body is destroyed and only my soul is left."

Fairy Chixia snorted coldly, fell completely silent, and said no more.

Chen An was happy to have some peace and quiet. After escaping to a suitable distance, he continued to look for the figure of the Hades Beast nearby.

But gradually, he realized something was wrong. The underworld beasts he killed would inexplicably lose flesh and blood not long after, just like the corpse of the Heavenly Wolf in the Weeping Blood Forest.

At that time, he thought that the blood tree in the Weeping Blood Forest had mutated under the influence of the dark energy and was devouring the nearby flesh and blood.

But when he was at the ghost gate, he was too close to the crack of the dark energy and thought he was affected by the dark energy.

But now that he is far away from the Nether Qi Rift, it is still the same. He always feels that there is something weird about it.

"Don't think about it. This will happen to any living creature with flesh and blood who dies near the three dangerous places." The voice of Fairy Chixia sounded.

"Three dangerous places? Aren't they two dangerous places?"

According to the information we got, Shenglin Island has two dangerous places, the Weeping Blood Forest and Ghost Gate, but I have never heard of there being three.

"If you promise to help me find the Soul-Condensing Jade, I will tell you."

"Don't talk about knocking me down."

Chen An didn't indulge her and directly threw the bamboo tube into his sleeve.

"You are such a boring person."

Suddenly, a faint but captivating light came into view. Upon closer inspection, I saw a crystal clear object on the ground, as bright as the morning star, with the glow of light flowing inside, which was beautiful beyond words.

"This is."

"Soul-Condensing Jade! Take it out quickly!"

Chen An was searching for miscellaneous knowledge about spiritual objects in his mind, but he heard the urgent call of Fairy Chixia from his sleeve.

However, Chen An curled up his lips into a sneer and stepped back.

"What are you doing? The Soul-Condensing Jade is priceless and it's right in front of you. You can't be so stupid, right?" Fairy Chixia's voice was full of confusion and anxiety.

Listening to the instigation of the Red Cloud Fairy in his sleeve, Chen An sneered, "Such a large piece of Soul Condensing Jade is lying on the ground. Is this a godsend? Do you really think you are the son of destiny?"

Chen An didn’t think that there would be such a good thing in the world. He was walking on the road and suddenly got rich unexpectedly.

"Then what do you say we should do? We can't just pretend we saw nothing." Fairy Chixia said unwillingly.

Facing the question from Fairy Chixia, he simply smiled and said, "How difficult is that? Just be cautious."

"what?"

Chen An pulled out a piece of bamboo tube from his sleeve, and with a flip of his wrist, the bamboo tube fell lightly onto the Soul-Condensing Jade, making a crisp and pleasant collision sound.

"Chen An, you are so shameless!" The angry voice of Fairy Chixia came from the bamboo tube.

What she saw next left her speechless with shock.

A layer of strange black mist rose from the Soul-Condensing Jade, gradually condensing into a vague outline of a human face. The eyes were like the fire of the abyss, flashing with a bloodthirsty cold light.

Its eyes were like two balls of dark flame, flashing with cold light and revealing a bit of bloodthirstiness.

He looked at the bamboo tube in front of him, a cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he seemed quite excited.

With her soul trapped in the bamboo tube, Fairy Chixia trembled terribly and dared not move, for fear that the evil spirit would swallow the bamboo tube in one gulp.

"town!"

Chen An shouted, and the Soul-Soothing Plate in his hand flew out. Several dark blue chains flew down like dragons and tightly wrapped around the evil spirit.

Before I could be happy, I saw that the mouth of the ghost mask was often distorted, as if it was shouting silently.

Then his body shook and turned into black mist again, easily breaking free from the chains.

Seeing this, Chen An shook his head helplessly. This ghost mask was not a mutated creature on the island, but an evil spirit from the underworld that emerged from the cracks in the Ghost Gate.

Its shape is erratic and cannot be easily trapped by the Soul-Soothing Disk.

The Ghost Face now locked its eyes on Chen An, opening its mouth wide as if to swallow everything.

"Photography!"

"break!"

Chen An shouted twice, and deep and powerful syllables burst out from his mouth. The sound waves of the Three-Sound Soul-Calming Technique spread out, carrying powerful magic power.

The ghost face opposite was originally an evil spirit from the underworld, extremely ferocious, but in front of Chen An's Three-Sound Soul-Calming Technique, it was frightened, the ghost fire in its eyes swayed slightly, and its movements obviously paused.

A hint of cunning flashed in Chen An's eyes. Taking this opportunity, he flicked his sleeves, and a black petal flew out silently from his sleeves, drawing a graceful arc, and accurately fell into the open mouth of the ghost face.

The ghost face swallowed the petals, and suddenly, its body began to tremble violently, with pain and fear flashing in its dark eyes.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, a black petal flew out from Chen An's sleeve and flew straight into the ghost face's open mouth.

Chen An raised the corner of his mouth, and the spells in his hand changed continuously, while the black mist on the ghost face opposite seemed to boil, rolling constantly, and dissipated in wisps in the air.

The Ghost Face struggled, trying to escape from the restraints, but the corrosive force had penetrated deep into it and it was no longer able to resist.

Based on the principle of not wasting, Chen An raised the soul refining bottle and put it into it.

Then, the black petals fell into his palm again.

Chen An went forward to pick up the bamboo tube and said with a smile, "Did you see the ghost face clearly just now, Fairy?"

"Hmph, you are using my treasure to show off in front of me!" Fairy Chixia stared at the black petals in Chen An's hand and said sourly.

Chen An smiled lightly and ignored him, directly digging out the soul-condensing jade on the ground.

"Now can you tell me about the third most dangerous place?"
