The remnant sun was gradually engulfed in twilight, and the soldiers quickly accelerated the speed of scrubbing the bloodstains. Xinchen suddenly turned around and asked the soldier just now, "Are you sure that the blood stains can attract that monster?"

The soldier said in a panic, "My lord, I'm sure. Last night, because a bloodstain was not dealt with in time, the monster came back in the middle of the night and took several people captive. After saying that, he hurriedly continued to scrub again.

Xinchen suddenly grabbed the soldier and said in a loud voice: "Don't deal with the bloodstains here, please hide in the nearby houses for the time being, I want to see what is wrong with this monster?"

The soldiers were stunned when they heard this, and the soldier who had just replied said: "Don't, my lord, that monster is infinitely powerful and ferocious, and I am afraid that it will hurt your life!"

Xinchen deduced from everyone's description that the monster should be some kind of controlled puppet, and it should have gone and returned in the middle of the night, it should be looking for a sacrificial soul for the Soul Eater Array. The reason why it happened to be around the bloodstains of the daytime incident was that the monster had lost its mind and acted on instinct. If you want to find the Soul Eater Array outside the city, tracking this monster is indeed a shortcut. So, Xinchen said: "Everyone step back first, I have my own measure." ”

The night had completely covered the streets, and the soldiers had long since taken care of anything else, and fled from the bloodstains like a plague, leaving only Xinchen and Li Miao.

Clouds shrouded the imperial capital, and the cold streets were silent. Suddenly, the blood stains on the bluestone slab gradually glowed with purple glow, and a terrible howl came from the direction of the city gate. Then the wind blew around, and several purple flames lit up in the dark night, jumping and drifting towards this side.

When he got closer, Xinchen saw that although those monsters were on all fours, they were obviously humanoid, but their facial features had long been distorted, and their eyes were hollow and blank, glowing with a faint purple light. When those monsters saw Xinchen and the two, they immediately pounced.

Those monsters, as ferocious, were somewhat unresponsive. Xinchen and the two are agile, although they are besieged by monsters, they do not fall behind, and several monsters have been restrained between tossing and turning. The rest of the monsters were about to attack wildly, but they heard another terrible howl in the wilderness outside the city gate, and those remaining monsters actually took the initiative to stop the attack and turned to flee outside the city. Xinchen took out the mandala pollen and imprinted it on the monster running at the back. The monster jumped forward in pain and fled outside the city gate.

Li Miao was about to chase out, but was stopped by Xinchen and said, "Miao'er, don't chase it." The monster outside the city is their leader, and even if we kill all these monsters that enter the city, it will be useless now. These monsters have been marked by me, and we will investigate them after dawn. Then he turned to the monsters who had just been restrained and asked, "Miao'er, can you see if they can still be saved?"

Li Miao pointed at the monster's eyebrows with her index finger, only to see a faint light on her fingertips, and after a while, she shook her head slightly, and said, "Childe, I can't feel any soul power." ”

Xinchen was a little disappointed and confirmed, "That means they have no soul anymore?"

Li Miao nodded and said, "Yes, the reason why they can still move is only because there is a mysterious power that dominates their bodies, and they are no longer life, but puppets!"

Xinchen silently lit a spiritual fire, swung it at the demon puppets lying motionless on the ground, and then Xiao Suo turned around. The spiritual fire burned those demon puppets to ashes in an instant, and dispersed with the wind, may you rest in peace!

At dawn the next day, Xinchen and Li Miao followed the strange fragrance of the mandala all the way, and finally found the traces of last night's shame in the Cangyan Mountain on the outskirts of the city. Cangyan Mountain is originally a beautiful place, known as "the five mountains are beautiful and a mountain, and the Taihang peaks are only Cangyan", but now what is presented in front of you is a piece of ashes. The once lush mountain forestry has withered, and the forest is littered with dried carcasses of various animals.

As the two of them went deeper and deeper into the mountain, they could no longer feel the sun, only the cold that froze through the bone marrow. The mountain road gradually narrowed, and finally it was only a foot wide, leaning against the cliff and facing the abyss, but fortunately, the two were agile and could barely pass. Climbing to the top, it suddenly became clear that on the other side of the mountain was a vast valley.

As far as the eye could see, the valley was densely packed with Soul Devouring Formations! A rough calculation of Xinchen showed that there were hundreds of Soul Devouring Formations. In the middle of the valley, there is another huge Soul Eater Array. Xinchen looked far away, and saw that above the blood pool of the giant soul devouring array, there was a white-haired old man floating, and the figure looked a little like Chen Zhi!

The heart dust secretly lucked spiritual power, and I wanted to see it more clearly. Suddenly, the white-haired old man sensed someone peeping at him from afar, and suddenly turned around, and a sharp gaze was cast towards Xinchen! Xinchen finally saw that person's face clearly, yes, he was Chen Zhi! But the gaze that followed was obviously the same as the gaze from Mu Tianxia in the endless abyss. That's it, it turns out that the demon of the Immortal Emperor has descended to the mortal world again and is attached to Chen Zhi!

That giant Soul Devouring Array had already helped him descend, but what about the other hundreds? Could it be that this demon was going to descend hundreds of immortals to the mortal world?!
