Chapter 274
In the eastern region of the Heaven Dou Empire, a major event related to the Hall of Spirits recently happened.

An elite soul master team composed of three soul kings and five soul sects was attacked by unknown enemies on the way to escort two soul bones to the Wuhun Temple in the big city in the area.

All eight team members died, and the two spirit bones they escorted were missing.

The senior deacon Xie Yue, who happened to be working nearby, rushed to the scene as soon as she got the news.

Since she was a teenager, Xie Yue has been performing various tasks in the Wuhun Temple as an executive warrior.Among them, chasing and killing evil soul masters and fighting bandits composed of soul masters are the most common tasks.Xie Yue has performed no less than thirty missions, and naturally many of them have experienced killing.

But even he, who could be called a battle-hardened man, was so shocked that his back felt chills when he arrived at the scene.

The scene of the crime is on the side of the road, but it is a small road. I heard from the locals that there are few people coming and going on weekdays. If another Wuhundian team happened to pass by, I'm afraid they haven't found it yet.

Still far away, Xie Yue smelled a strong stench.

At the beginning of the evil month, they didn't pay much attention to it. In summer, the corpse decays quickly, and it is not uncommon to have a strong rancid smell.However, when she got closer, Xie Yue felt her scalp tingle after only one glance.

When we came here, our colleagues had already reported the situation here.Xie Yue also knew that eight people had died.

However, when he arrived, he found more than fifty corpses around.There were only eight human corpses, but there were as many as forty or fifty corpses of various animals.

Most of them are carrion vultures, crows and the like among birds, and there are also some small jackals and fox dogs.

This is a trail in the forest. It is not uncommon for there to be some small wild beasts in the forest, but it is very puzzling that these wild beasts died here together.

Xie Yue stepped forward, and the stench became more intense. He had to cover his mouth and nose with a wet towel handed by someone next to him, and then he was barely able to enter the scene.

Several corpses had signs of being eaten by wild beasts, and the beasts that ate their corpses also fell beside these corpses, and other wild beasts gnawed on the corpses of those animals, and then lay down not far away .

Seeing such a scene, Xie Yue couldn't help frowning slightly.The Wuhundian members who were walking beside him already frowned and said in a low voice: "What a powerful poison."

Yes, poison!

Xie Yue knew it the first time she saw the scene in front of her.These eight soul masters probably died of severe poisoning.Those scavengers came over and wanted to eat their corpses, and were poisoned to death by the toxins left on the corpses, but the toxins were overbearing!

The traces of being eaten on those corpses were not obvious. It was obvious that the animals had been poisoned to death after eating a bite or two.

There are not many masters who use poison in the world of soul masters, and the most famous one is of course Dugu Bo, who is known as Jade Phosphorus Douluo and is titled Poison.

But Xie Yue didn't think it was Dugu Bo or his granddaughter Dugu Yan who did it.

Coincidentally, Xie Yue just happened to know where Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan were at this time, they should all be in the area around Tiandou City, the capital of Tiandou Empire.To be precise, it should be in the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect.His current residence is in Landian City.

Yu Tianheng, the eldest grandson of the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect and the first heir of the next generation suzerain, is going to hold an engagement ceremony recently, and the object of the engagement is Duguyan, the granddaughter of Du Douluo.

At this time, Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan must be preparing for the engagement ceremony in Landian City, it is impossible to go here thousands of miles away to kill people.It's better to kill a few spirit masters of the Wuhun Palace who are around the fiftieth level.

"Are there any clues from the venom?" Xie Yue asked.

"There are no clues at present. Although there are not many soul masters with poison attribute abilities, there are not many, and the combination of different martial souls and different soul rings will produce different poison effects. It is too difficult to check for a while. And we know so little about toxins that we don't have a clue yet."

The person in charge of the scene was an older soul master, but his strength was only at the level of the soul sect, and he was very respectful when facing Xie Yue, who was already a soul king and a senior deacon.

Xie Yue nodded, knowing that the person in charge was right.

The number of soul masters is a very small part of the entire population of Douluo Continent, but based on the mainland's population of hundreds of millions, the number of soul masters produced is actually quite a lot.

It is absolutely impossible for so many soul masters to understand their abilities one by one.Moreover, the poison attribute is a relatively small ability, and it is completely understandable that the people below don't know which ability it is for a while.

However, if she can understand it, she can understand it, and Xie Yue still feels very dissatisfied with it.

The people in Wuhundian were attacked and killed, and the goods they escorted were robbed. A whole day has passed, but there is no clue, not even a suspect.

If this matter gets out, I don't know how many aristocratic families will see the joke of Wuhundian, and Xie Yue feels that it is completely intolerable.

"Have you reported it to the higher authorities?" Xie Yue asked.

"I asked for help half a day ago and described the situation here in detail. A superior who is good at poison should come over within a day or two."

"One or two more days?" Xie Yue frowned dissatisfiedly: "With the current weather, these corpses will be so rotten that there is no way to see them in half a day. By then, even if someone from the superiors comes over, they will be able to see something."

The deacon of Wuhundian who was in charge of the local area dared not speak.

"Captain, don't be angry, it's not the fault of the people below." Another tall young soul master who came with Xie Yue comforted him:

"This place is remote, and the Wuhun Temple in the small town may be good if there are only one or two soul masters. They usually do small things like awakening Wuhun. You ask them to find someone who can kill them. Wouldn't it be difficult for them to find clues about the murderer of the members of this elite team."

Xie Yue took a deep breath, suppressed her annoyance a little, nodded to the local person in charge, and said, "Sorry, I'm just getting impatient. Don't mind, brother."

The local Wuhun deacon repeatedly shook his hands, saying he didn't dare, and even gave the young soul master a grateful expression.

The young soul master who dissuaded Xie Yue nodded slightly to the middle-aged deacon, and said to Xie Yue who was still angry: "Captain, don't worry, isn't there me here?"

As he said that, the young soul master took off the wet towel that was covering his face, but without moving, four soul rings, two yellow and two purple, appeared under his feet, and at the same time, a huge phantom of an ice bear faintly appeared behind him.

The second spirit ring under the young man's feet flickered, and he opened his mouth to spit out a white mist. Wherever the white mist passed, whether it was the corpses of the eight Spirit Hall elite squad members or the corpses of other animals around, the surface was immediately covered with a layer of white. Frost, the frost became thicker and thicker, and after a while, all the corpses on the ground turned into ice sculptures.

As the body was sealed in ice, the strong stench quickly dissipated.

"Old Luo can do it." Xie Yue said happily, and then stretched out her hand to beat the young man's arm: "If you have this ability, why didn't you use it earlier, causing us to smell such a bad smell for a long time."

The burly young man showed a naive smile: "Didn't I just remember this?"

If Murong Fu was here, he would be quite surprised.

Because the burly young man who was following Xie Yue was the captain of the Alien Beast Academy, Luo Jinping, who participated in the soul master competition with him before.

Compared with when he participated in the soul master competition, his soul power has improved a lot, but it has not yet reached the level of a soul king.

At this time, following Xie Yue's side, he probably joined the Spirit Hall shortly after the competition.

This is quite normal, the soul master competition is originally a platform for various forces to select talents and for young soul masters to show themselves to future bosses.

Luo Jinping and Wuhundian seemed to be quite satisfied with each other.It's just that Luo Jinping unexpectedly followed Xie Yue.

Xie Yue nodded in satisfaction. Since these corpses are frozen, it shouldn't be a problem to store them for a day or two, which is enough to wait until the superior Wuhun Hall sends a master who is proficient in poison to check the cause of death of these eight soul masters. .

However, what Xie Yue didn't expect was that there was a pair of eyes staring at them in the dark at this moment.

Among the bushes less than five feet away from the group of people, Tang San was crouching there quietly looking at the group of people in Wuhun Hall.Xie Yue was in a mixed brigade, with a total of 25 soul masters, more than half of them were soul kings, and the rest were all soul masters.

With a team of regular soul masters of this size, Tang San naturally couldn't run out to confront them head-on, in fact not only head-to-head, even if he wanted to sneak attack like before, he couldn't do it.

This kind of mixed soul master brigade full of people must have sentient auxiliary soul masters.

As long as Tang San makes a move, he will deliberately explore the surroundings, so even if he is good at hiding, it is impossible to hide under the soul king level detection soul skills.

And if faced with the siege of three or five or even more soul kings, Tang San was not sure that he would be able to retreat unscathed.

Tang San hid there, didn't say a word, listening to their conversation quietly, although there was a distance of five or six feet, but Tang San, who practiced concealed weapons in two generations, was able to listen to voices and distinguish positions, and his hearing was naturally extraordinary. It's nothing to him.

Hearing that there might be a Spirit Hall spirit master proficient in poisonous spirit skills coming, Tang San slightly raised his eyebrows.

He somewhat regretted that he hadn't destroyed the corpse before.Although he wasn't worried at all that the reinforcements from Wuhundian could find him based on those corpses.

He had never used those highly poisonous concealed weapons in Douluo Continent. Whether it was given to Shrek as a surprise or sold to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School before, most of them were not poisoned.

A few of the toxins on the hidden weapons of the Shrek Seven Monsters were not very powerful.

In fact, part of the poison in his hand was refined in the eyes of Binghuo Liangyi, and the other part was when Xiao Wu went to the Star Dou Forest with Xiao Wu years ago. Refining rare herbs found in China.

As for his own martial soul, its toxicity is very limited.

Only the fifth soul skill Spider Emperor Piercing Gun is truly poisonous, but he only used this soul skill when he killed the soul master team.Before that, it was only used on soul beasts.

The Eight Spider Lances are also extremely poisonous, especially the Eight Spider Lances that have evolved twice at this time, are even more poisonous.But he had hardly used the Eight Spider Lances in front of people before.The effect shown by several times of use is also completely different from this time.

After thinking for a long time, realizing that there was no loophole, Tang San left quietly.
