Following.

Before Duan Ling and Xiao Pan had gone to the area where they were slaughtered in the Bright Pavilion, many of the sects that had previously shown favor to the Bright Pavilion had sent many elders from the sect to come.

What shocked Duan Ling was that the original slaughter of the entire area did not only happen in the territory of the Guangming Pavilion, but even in the regions of many sects. And all of these things, after many investigations by these sects, they did not find any clues.

"Master He, several of our sects have always been respectful to the Guangming Pavilion, but the Guangming Pavilion is the first to look forward, this time there is such a thing, and please ask the Guangming Pavilion to make the decision for us. A middle-aged man said to He Shuang with a sad face and a look full of expectation.

After his words fell, I saw that several people around him took out many mountains of spirit stones and various pills from the storage bag, all of which were placed in front of He Shuang. This is like a kind of tribute, and these sects can only find strong sects to solve these thorny problems for themselves at this moment.

Although He Shuang has not yet become the real head of the Guangming Pavilion, under the strength of this series, other sects have already regarded him as the head of the Guangming Pavilion.

And these people are not as respectful as they themselves say, they really respect the Bright Pavilion. They just didn't fall into the well when the Bright Pavilion fell, and they just expressed friendship with the Bright Pavilion when it rose. In fact, the most important reason is also because his own strength is too low, and he can't share any benefits in front of other strong sects.

However, He Shuang did not expose their careful thoughts, since everyone was willing to pay the Guangming Pavilion some protection fees, then he had no reason to push these resources out. At this time, it has been confirmed that all these slaughtering methods are from the same person's handwriting, anyway, the Guangming Pavilion will also investigate this matter, but by the way, it can also be a favor for these small sects.

Such a large-scale massacre, to put it bluntly, is the enemy of the entire Dustless Star. He Shuang couldn't imagine that in the Dustless Star, there was any sect that could challenge all the sects. Therefore, he immediately made a decision, this is by no means what any sect dares to do, this must be done by a certain monk with a strong cultivation. But what his purpose was in doing this, it is not known.

"Everyone, don't be impatient, not only has such a terrible massacre occurred in your region, but even within the scope of my Bright Pavilion. Don't worry, I'm planning to send someone to investigate, and I will definitely find out this evil person who is the enemy of the entire Dongzhou monks. He Shuang comforted everyone, and then sent the disciples of the Bright Pavilion to take them down to rest first.

After the monks of the various sects left, only He Shuang, Duan Ling and Xiao Pan were left here at this moment.

"Brother, it seems that this matter is not just aimed at my Bright Pavilion sect, and I have also thought that this is definitely not a sin committed by a certain sect. This must have been done by an evil monk, and his cultivation must be very high, so that none of these sects could find the slightest clue. Therefore, you and Xiaopan go this time, you must pay attention to your own safety. If you meet that evil cultivator, if you can fight, you will fight, and if you can't fight, you will come back first, and we will discuss how to deal with it later. He Shuang's face was a little worried, if Duan Ling's True Lake Cultivation was used to deal with that evil cultivator, I was afraid that Duan Ling's safety would be threatened.

"Brother He Shuang, isn't there still me?" Xiao Pan said to He Shuang with a nonchalant expression.

He Shuang smiled, "It's because of you that I'm a little more steady." The Tianhe Realm is the highest monk realm of the Dustless Star, and with you, it will be easier for the two of you to deal with danger if they encounter it. ”

"Don't worry, with me here, my eldest brother will not be in danger. Xiaopan patted his chest and assured He Shuang.

"Big brother, since this matter has affected many sects, I think the person who slaughtered will definitely take action, Xiao Pan and I will go to investigate immediately, hoping to find out the evil person as soon as possible. Duan Ling looked at He Shuang and said.

"Well, remember to be careful, and if you encounter danger, you must ensure your safety first. He Shuang patted Duan Ling's shoulder and reminded him again.

Duan Ling nodded at him with a smile, and left the Bright Pavilion with Xiao Pan. The first place they had to go was Jiahe Town, five hundred miles away, which was the area belonging to the Guangming Pavilion. Many monks were trading in that town, and there were many disciples stationed there in the Bright Pavilion.

Duan Ling and Xiaopan had already arrived in Jiahe Town in only half an hour, and all the buildings were as good as before, and all the buildings had not been damaged in the slightest. Just at a glance, except for some buildings, there is no longer half a figure in the town.

In this town, there is only a thick air of death, and an extremely disgusting smell of blood. When Duan Ling saw these buildings, he always felt that something seemed to be wrong, but after carefully exploring them again, he still didn't find anything wrong.

Duan Ling didn't bother anymore, he and Xiaopan suddenly landed on the most lively and prosperous street in the town. They walked down the street, and in just a few moments, they saw several corpses.

The faces of these corpses seemed to be extremely frightened, and there was an indescribable fear in their eyes. And there are many holes in their bodies, as if they have suddenly burst open from within their bodies. The blood had dried up, but the smell of blood was still emanating in large streams.

"It's like they were all killed by a person who had become a strong cultivator and suddenly cast a spell, but before they died, they seemed to have experienced something that frightened them. Xiao Pan crouched down and looked at the corpses carefully.

"Well, look elsewhere. Duan Ling nodded towards Xiaopan and walked towards the street again.

They walked into shop after shop, house after house, all of them like the first few corpses they had seen, with fear on their faces and holes in their bodies.

"Could it be that when this person kills everyone, he wants to make them afraid first? Big brother, the total number of people in this town is probably more than half a million. After seeing each corpse, Xiao Pan suddenly felt inexplicable.

Duan Ling stopped, and at this moment, he immediately remembered Hua Yao. Hua Yao's armor was made by slaughtering many lives and refining them with their resentful spirits, and generally speaking, Hua Yao was also an evil cultivator.

To say that the most different thing between them is that Hua Yao's evil method is only to slaughter mortals, and the person Duan Ling met at this moment, whether he is a monk or a mortal, has all been slaughtered by him.

"Could it be that this person slaughtered so many people in order to get their souls?" Duan Ling frowned, his cultivation immediately functioned, and his spiritual sense felt the soul above the corpse.

Duan Ling knew that this might not be of any use, because these people had been dead for a long time, and even their souls should have left or disappeared. But he still carefully examined, he swept through one corpse after another, but still found nothing.

At this time, there were already more than 100,000 corpses swept by his spiritual sense, Duan Ling sighed secretly, he was already planning to give up. But at this moment, he clearly felt that he seemed to have captured something.

His figure flickered immediately, and disappeared in an instant, appearing in front of a corpse. After seeing Duan Ling's actions at this moment, Xiaopan immediately guessed that Duan Ling must have made a little discovery.

"Big brother, what did you find?" Xiao Pan immediately came to Duan Ling's side and asked eagerly.

"This is a monk of the Great Perfection of the True Lake, and his cultivation is only a trace away from being able to break through the Heavenly Harmony Realm. Duan Ling's spiritual sense once again scanned the corpse over and over again, and the faint soul aura he had captured came from here.

"His soul is still there, and it seems that there is an extremely strong force that wants to pull his soul out of his body. When Duan Ling's spiritual sense swept over the head of this corpse, he finally saw a soul inside that had shrunk countless times.

And that soul is being pulled by a silk thread at this time. Although the monk is dead, it seems that his soul has finally found its hiding place, but it is still found by the power that controls the threads. At this time, the silk thread and soul actually started a rally battle.

I saw that the silk thread was suddenly straightened, and the soul in the corpse could no longer hold on, and the whole thing was suddenly pulled into the air by the silk thread, and it actually flew towards a tall tower that was standing.

"That's ...... Soul Collecting Formation?" When Duan Ling saw the soul enter the tower that was standing, he suddenly realized in his heart why he always felt that this town was a little strange when he saw the buildings of Jiahe Town.

Just because of such a tall tower, there are four, which stand in the four directions of the southeast, northwest, and northwest of Jiahe Town, enclosing the entire Jiahe Town in the middle. And these four towers are so tall that they don't fit in with all the buildings in the town.

Duan Ling's figure immediately flew towards the tower, he wanted to take a look, where did this formation lead? And he already had a guess in his heart at this moment, why he had visited so many corpses, but he didn't find such an abnormality as now, that was probably the only one True Lake Realm Great Perfection in the entire Jiahe Town.

Xiao Pan saw Duan Ling flying towards the tower after talking to himself, and his figure immediately followed. Duan Ling's cultivation method of the Spiritual Ascension Dao was originally a cultivation of the soul, even if Xiao Pan's cultivation was much higher than Duan Ling's, he still couldn't see all this that Duan Ling saw.

"It is indeed an evil cultivator, who is this person, and what is he collecting so many souls for?" Duan Ling frowned tightly as he flew towards the tower. An ominous premonition rose in his heart, as if another storm was about to appear in the land of Dongzhou.
