Chapter 1608: Cutting Off One's Own Life
The Lei Yao Sword hummed, and then a sword domain spread out, colliding with the Thousand Souls Stone's illusion domain. A rumbling sound was heard by everyone.

Ye Tao's flying knife split into two, two into four, four into sixteen, and instantly turned into tens of thousands of flying knives, protecting himself in the middle.

Uncle Mo's dark purple bell instantly grew larger and covered his head. While protecting its owner, it also absorbed the souls of stragglers into the bell, without suffering any loss.

Lianyi's lightning sword domain was so domineering that it only collided with the Thousand Souls Stone once, and a slight shattering sound was transmitted to Lianyi's ears. She curled up the corners of her lips and used only 10% of her strength to perform a move called "Thunderbolt". The moment the sword fell, the surrounding darkness was like a broken mirror, and it instantly disintegrated and turned into mist.

The next moment Lianyi felt the suppression of the Heavenly Dao. She knew that she had broken through the domain of the Thousand Souls Stone. The Lei Yao Sword also obediently returned to her Dantian. The surroundings were eerily quiet.

Ye Tao and Uncle Mo also withdrew their defenses and came to Lianyi holding their weapons.

At this time, the three of them also saw clearly that they were standing in a deep pit, surrounded by piles of bones. Those they had destroyed before were only a very small part, and they only cleared the bones where they were standing.

Lianyi knew at a glance how the ordinary stone became the "Thousand Souls Stone". This was the place where it was born.

Uncle Mo looked around and sighed, saying:
"No wonder! This kind of environment can easily produce Thousand Soul Stones. I just didn't expect that a piece of stone could develop intelligence after years of accumulation."

At this time Ye Tao also frowned and said:

“This should be a mass grave during the war. I don’t know how many innocent souls are buried here. The blood is enough to dye every inch of the land red. In addition, the terrain here allows the Thousand Souls Stone to absorb the blood and then absorb the innocent souls who died in vain. Over time, it has gained consciousness.

Later, Ye Chang'an's fresh blood allowed the Thousand Souls Stone to connect with her. He used Ye Chang'an's hand to leave the place where he was born and went outside to absorb pure souls to strengthen himself.

When I finally wanted to break free from this place, I returned here again. This ancestral hall should have been the center of Yejia Village, but I don’t know why it was built on a mass grave.”

Lian Yi agreed with Ye Tao's analysis. After thinking for a while, she said:
"Before building the ancestral hall, they probably wanted to let those wronged souls rest in peace by offering incense and burning candles. However, they didn't expect that the Thousand Souls Stone would be so cheap. Without the incense and burning candles, it would not be able to generate consciousness. They didn't expect that they would support such a thing that would repay kindness with enmity."

Lian Yi shook her head repeatedly.

"His domain has been breached. Now we just need to find him. Should we split up and look for him?"

Uncle Mo asked for their opinions.

"it is good!"

Neither of them had any objections.

Lianyi randomly chose a direction. Now the Thousand Souls Stone had become timid and concealed its aura completely for fear of being found. If it knew that the three people it coveted were so cruel, it would never show up. But now it was too late.

Lianyi felt that the bones all over the ground would affect their actions, so she suggested cleaning them up first. Uncle Mo had no objection. He was also worried that if they didn't take away these bones, new Thousand Souls Stones would be nurtured.

So Uncle Mo used the same trick again and crushed the bones. Then after Lianyi burned them with the Red Lotus Fire, the powder was swept into the corner by Ye Tao. Now the entire picture of the mass grave was presented to the three of them.

The entire deep pit is about 100 square meters in size and 30 meters deep. You can imagine how many corpses were piled here at that time.

Lianyi first scanned the bottom of the pit with her naked eyes, then activated the innate skill of the Phantom Fox. After seeing through the illusion, the Thousand Souls Stone appeared in her sight.

Because the Thousand Souls Stone had been soaked in blood, its color was darker than other stones. In addition, it had absorbed so many souls, giving itself a layer of blood light. After Lianyi activated his skill, he saw through the opponent's disguise at a glance.

The next moment Lianyi determined the target, she threw out the evil weapon dagger in her hand. The sound of metal hitting stone reached Ye Tao and Uncle Mo's ears. They turned back at the same time and saw a dark red stone flying towards Lianyi. Lianyi raised her hand and grasped the Thousand Souls Stone. This damn thing actually wanted to repeat the same trick and stick to her to absorb her soul power. She was not Aunt Li, and she had no defense. The whole palm of her hand holding the Thousand Souls Stone was covered with a layer of red lotus fire as thin as a cicada's wing.

Hongye also sensed the other party's ill intentions. The moment her master held the stone, she took the initiative to increase the firepower and began to burn the Thousand Souls Stone. Lianyi was naturally not far behind, and the strength of holding the Thousand Souls Stone was increasing little by little.

No matter what, the "Thousand Souls Stone" is just evolved from an ordinary stone. Its body has not been tempered through thousands of trials and tribulations. It has no way to deal with physical attacks like ripples.

Qianpo Stone could feel the "cracking" sound coming from its body. Tiny cracks were forming inside its body and spreading toward the surface. This was the sound of itself breaking into pieces, and it instantly became timid.

"Master, spare my life, please don't destroy me. I am willing to spit out all the souls I swallowed. Please don't crush me!"

"Humph! Weren't you very arrogant just now? Didn't you threaten to refine us?"

Lianyi's voice became more forceful with each word she spoke. She hated being threatened and would usually take revenge on the spot.

“No! Please don’t crush me. If I break, the souls in my body will jump out uncontrollably, and you will have to clean up the mess.

I made such a big mistake because I was affected by the resentment and anger of these wronged souls. It is because I am here that Yejia Village has been safe and sound for so many years."

"So this is your reason for absorbing the souls of living people to strengthen yourself?"

Lian Yi asked back with a sneer.

This time, she increased the strength in her hands again, and finally a crack appeared on the surface of the Thousand Souls Stone. Then a wisp of black breath leaked out and was directly absorbed by the evil weapon dagger.

Qianposhi really wanted to cry. He had really hit a wall this time.

Ye Tao and Uncle Mo on the side had no intention of dissuading them. They just crossed their arms and watched the show, ready to finish them off at any time. It was this thing that caused them to lose a companion, and they didn't know whether the other party was dead or alive. They would not persuade Lian Yi to be kind to this thing.

Just as Lian Yi was about to make another effort to completely destroy the Thousand Souls Stone, the sound of the stone mortar rang in her ears:

"Lianyi, this Thousand Souls Stone cannot be destroyed for the time being."

Lianyi paused, raised her eyes and asked:

"Why? Give me a reason."

"He shall not sin unto death."

"reason!"

"The mass graves were indeed not a problem because of his suppression. He has made contributions, so we can't just condemn him with one blow."

"Then the people he killed died in vain?"

This is a matter of principle. Merits should be rewarded and mistakes should be punished. There is no such thing as offsetting merits and demerits in Lianyi.

"We have negotiated with Yama Palace, and those who died unjustly will have a second chance to reincarnate."
