After Hong Jiahao came to the meeting hall, he saw that the patriarch and the elders had solemn faces, feeling some depressing breath in the hall, and sighed in his heart, thinking that this was for Li Yunxiao's escape last time, and now he came to settle the account with him, and immediately felt that the cold wind was blowing in his back, and his body even trembled uncontrollably.

Fortunately, this nervous and anxious mood did not last long before it calmed down, for he then understood from the conversation of the elders that the patriarch had called him over this time only for routine questioning.

In this kind of serious occasion, Hong Jiahao didn't dare to talk nonsense, in order to avoid any omissions, he first carefully recalled the process of the day, but only then did he slowly say it in detail, and said his guess, and finally solemnly stated that if Li Yunxiao had not practiced exercises that could cover up cultivation, then Li Yunxiao's cultivation at that time was 100% a three-star warrior.

After Hong Jiahao finished speaking, everyone's expressions were also different, some were shocked, some were puzzled, some were strange, and some were puzzled......

Hong Yangfu was the first to speak: "The exercises of concealing cultivation are like chicken ribs, and they are not of much use if they are cultivated, and ordinary cultivators will not spend such time and energy to cultivate such exercises. ”

Hong Yangming continued: "In this way, then Li Yunxiao has really been promoted to five minor cultivators in just two months. ”

Although the public is extremely reluctant to admit it, this conclusion is the most reliable conclusion at present.

Hong Yangfeng looked puzzled and frowned: "Even if this is the case, Li Yunxiao is only a warrior, how can he have such a powerful combat power, he can kill a middle-level martial artist, and even injure Jingren." ”

The crowd fell silent again, for even if they had worn out their heads, they would not have been able to figure out the key.

Hong Jiahao thought for a while, and suddenly said: "I remember that Li Yunxiao's body's ability to resist blows is very strong, and he was forced to take a punch with fifty percent of my strength at that time, and he didn't suffer much damage, so he must have cultivated some kind of high-level body refining technique, could this be the reason for his strong combat power." ”

Hong Yangfu shook his head: "No matter how high-level the alchemy technique is, it only strengthens the body's ability to resist attacks, and it doesn't help much to improve the strength." Of course, it is not excluded that some powerful alchemy techniques can greatly increase the strength of the physical body and increase the combat power from the level, but no matter how strong this power is, it is impossible to be stronger than the power exerted by the battle qi, which is still very limited. ”

Hong Jingren, who had been silent for a long time, saw that everyone was expressing their opinions, frowned and expressed his opinion again: "I think that the reason why Li Yunxiao was able to easily kill a middle-level martial artist was not entirely because of his strong combat power, but more likely because he had some extremely strange means in his hands. ”

Everyone immediately became curious, but they didn't answer, because they hadn't fought with Li Yunxiao, and they didn't know what kind of person Li Yunxiao was, so they could only wait for Hong Jingren's explanation.

Hong Jingren's expression was full of incomprehensible doubts, and then he said slowly: "I remember that when I fought with Li Yunxiao, my soul was inexplicably stinging, as if I had been stabbed by something, and when I came back to my senses, I was inexplicably punched by him, and I was injured by him in this way." ”

Hong Yangzhen and the elders glanced at each other, their expressions instantly shocked, and they all said in unison: "Soul attack." ”

Hearing this word, hearing Hong Jingren's words, Hong Ruixin seemed to have thought of something, her face changed slightly, and she muttered to herself: "It turns out that this is the case, no wonder how I was caught by him, I didn't have any impression at all, it turned out that I was attacked by his soul." ”

Speaking of this, Hong Ruixin's pretty white face showed a haze color: "Damn guy, you dare to use a soul attack on Miss Ben, if you let Miss Ben catch you, Miss Ben will definitely let you die a good death." ”

Although Hong Ruixin's voice was small, all the elders sitting there were all general-level cultivators, so they naturally heard Hong Ruixin's words clearly, and when they were surprised in their hearts, their eyes looked towards Hong Ruixin one by one.

Hong Ruixin saw the doubts on everyone's faces, so she explained and told her about being arrested that day, and after everyone heard it, they became more and more sure that Li Yunxiao must know how to attack souls, otherwise it would not be so weird.

It was as if things suddenly became clear in an instant.

Great Elder Hong Yangxu spoke at this time: "Jing Hao, you told me before that Li Yunxiao was obviously running in front of you, but he suddenly disappeared, as if he had evaporated from the world, and there was no trace left around, is that the case?"

Hong Jinghao didn't understand why his father suddenly brought up this matter, but he still nodded.

Hong Yangxu's voice carried a hint of sudden realization: "I was also wondering how Li Yunxiao escaped, but now I finally understand, if there is no accident, you should also be attacked by his soul." ”

"Soul attack?"

Hong Jinghao was a little puzzled, because he remained awake from beginning to end, not like he had been attacked by a soul. But his soul did sting at the time.

Hong Yangxu said with a smile: "Yes, it's a soul attack, but it's a very clever soul attack." ”

Hong Yangxu saw that many people sitting there looked confused, and immediately explained:

"There are many ways to attack the soul, the most common is to launch a physical attack directly on the soul, so that the soul is harmed, this kind of damage is the same as our physical injury, and when it is serious, it will be directly destroyed. I don't need to say more about what it means to have a broken soul.

The second is illusion, which is an invisible means of soul attack that can make people inadvertently enter a state of distraction, thus losing the ability to resist. It is said that powerful illusions can even cause a person's soul to permanently fall into endless darkness and not be able to get out, and finally become the living dead.

Then there is the soul search, which is a kind of soul attack method that forcibly searches their memories, and the person being searched will endure pain that is very humanly bearable, and if the person being searched is not strong-willed, the final outcome will often become an idiot.

The last is the soul branding, which is a special method to brand the soul on the forbidden soul attack means, the prohibition is different, the effect is different, some are used to lock the position of others, some are used to control the thinking of others, some are used to torture others, etc., the means are very weird, some prohibitions even contain self-destruction procedures, once triggered, immediately explode, so that people die without a place to be buried. ”

When Xu Ren heard this, they looked at each other, and some of them even turned pale and had cold hands and feet.

Hong Yangxu paused for a moment, then added: "It is said that some cultivators can even strengthen their own souls by devouring the souls of others, and the means are extremely cruel, but this method only exists in legends, whether there is really such a thing, and it is unknown whether there is such a means." However, in general, the soul attack is very terrifying and weird, which is why many people would rather offend an ordinary cultivator whose cultivation is higher than their own, rather than offend a soul cultivator. ”

Hong Jinghao also understood at this time, his face was moved for a while, and he even had a kind of fear, and said slowly: "So, I fell for Li Yunxiao's illusion before?"

Hong Yangxu nodded: "Only in this way can we explain why Li Yunxiao was able to disappear inexplicably from under your nose without leaving any trace, because what you see is a false existence." In other words, the Li Yunxiao you are chasing is actually the Li Yunxiao of your fantasy, and the real Li Yunxiao has already fled from other directions. ”

Hong Yangfu didn't seem to think so, his face was still full of doubts, and he shook his head:

"If you want to cast an illusion on a seven-star martial artist, I'm afraid you need spiritual power above the fourth order, judging from Li Yunxiao's age, even if he starts cultivating spiritual power from his mother's womb, it is impossible to cultivate spiritual power to the fourth order at this age. Moreover, illusion is a very rare means of soul attack, at least in the territory of our Zoroa Empire, there has never been anyone who knows how to attack illusion, Li Yunxiao is just an ordinary cultivator, how can he understand this kind of attack?"

Hong Yangxu said in a deep voice: "Illusions are indeed rare, but rare does not mean that there are none, maybe Li Yunxiao has been instructed by a master to learn this kind of soul attack method, and he has obtained some kind of strange fate, which has greatly increased his spiritual power." Don't forget, this kid has been promoted to five minor cultivators in two months, and such a rebellious thing has happened, and what is absolutely impossible. ”

When everyone heard this, they nodded frequently.

Hong Yangzhen then smiled and said: "Judging from the current inference, only this reason can explain the previous doubts. ”

Hong Yangxu continued: "I personally think that Li Yunxiao has cultivated soul attacks out of ten, so I suggest that Li Yunxiao can only catch alive, not kill." ”

Hong Yangfeng was a little puzzled, and immediately objected: "Li Yunxiao killed fifty-one of our Hong family, not to mention killing him, it is not an exaggeration to scrape him with a thousand knives, Ling Chi is killed, why do you want to spare his life." ”

Hong Yangzhen smiled mysteriously: "Yang Feng, it seems that you haven't understood what the Great Elder means. ”

Hong Yangfeng was stunned for a moment: "The meaning of the Great Elder is so obvious, how can I not understand?"

Without waiting for Hong Yangzhen to answer, Hong Jinghao interjected: "Father, do you want to get ...... from Li Yunxiao." ”

Although Hong Jinghao's words were not finished, the people sitting suddenly realized one by one, nodded one after another, secretly admired the great elder's long-term vision, and nodded in agreement at the same time, of course, this also includes Hong Yangfeng, who was a little slower in his thinking.

Hong Yangzhen laughed: "It's really a tiger father without a dog!" Jing Hao, you are very good, keep working hard, if the Hong family wants to be strong, it needs a person like you who is both powerful and intelligent. ”

Hong Jingren listened to his father praise Hong Jinghao like this, his head was full of black lines, and his face was unhappy, but he didn't dare to say anything.

Hong Yangxu also looked at his son with appreciation, showing a look of relief: "Yes, I do have this idea." ”

Then he looked at everyone, "If our Hong family can learn this soul attack method, our Hong family's combat power will increase exponentially." At that time, not to mention a small Gujing City, even if you look at the entire Zoroa Empire, our Hong family can also stand at the pinnacle, and from now on, we will no longer have to look at the faces of others. ”

After hearing this, everyone seemed to have foreseen the future of their family, and one by one they became extremely excited, and their eyes began to be filled with greed.
