Although the soul-searching technique is a very vicious spell, it is not very profound. In the final analysis, it is just using spiritual consciousness to forcibly open the cultivator's sea of consciousness and roughly look through his memories.
Generally speaking, cultivators who claim to be righteous will not use soul-searching techniques on others openly, but it is still unknown what they will do in private.
During the soul-searching process, if the action is too rough, it will cause a serious burden to the person being searched. At the very least, the person being searched will lose all their cultivation, their sea of consciousness will be damaged, and they will then become demented.
In severe cases, the sea of consciousness will be shattered and the person will die on the spot.
If the person whose soul is being searched is a mortal rather than a cultivator, the mortal will not be able to bear the burden of the soul search and will surely die.
The thirteen monks saw Xue Kong using the soul-searching technique on Dong Shouying. Dong Shouying's face was distorted and showed a look of intense pain. Under Xue Kong's finger, his body trembled.
"Soul search!"
"This person must be a demon. I have to leave here as soon as possible while he is distracted. Otherwise, there will be endless troubles." The man with the sword had his heart pounding. He moved his body and quickly retreated.
The other monks were a little slower, but after discovering that the man with the sword had escaped first, they reacted and ran desperately in all directions.
The monk with a wretched appearance was just a fox who relied on the power of others to bully others. Once he met a real strong man, he would restrain himself and even his reaction would be much slower than that of other monks.
He only came to his senses after everyone else had run away and was about to escape.
Not far away, a dead tree half a man's height suddenly floated over, and with it came two evil ghosts, which pounced on him and attacked his soul.
The dead tree burst out with terrifying power, smashing its body and absorbing its vitality.
His soul could not escape and became food for the evil spirits.
After a moment, Xue Kong withdrew his fingers from Dong Shouying's brow. He looked thoughtful, "So that's how it is. Refining a demon into a pill, using one's blood and energy to refine it, can achieve an effect similar to cultivating one's own demon beast, but one will not be harmed."
"His aptitude for cultivation is not good, but his talent for alchemy is extraordinary. If he had practiced in the same conventional way as others, he would not have made it far. However, this person has taken a different approach and refined the Demon Soul Pill to enhance his strength."
"This alchemist Gu He is indeed quite talented. He is an alchemist in the early stages of foundation building..."
In Dong Shouying's memory, Gu He was the top cultivator in terms of cultivation and alchemy attainments within a radius of ten thousand miles of Gu He Cave. For the group from the Demon Island, Gu He refined a lot of Demon Soul Pills.
Part of it was handed into her hands.
Due to the limitations of the monster's own cultivation level, the strength of most monster soul pills is around the eighth level of Qi Condensation.
They entered the Demon Island not to look for treasure, but to capture more powerful monsters to refine Demon Soul Pills.
For this purpose, Gu He also hired three foundation-building monks with huge profits to escort him on this journey.
"Maybe I should go meet this person. The method of refining the Demon Soul Pill may be useful to me in the future." Xue Kong looked thoughtful and then picked up Dong Shouying's storage bag.
From the storage bag, Xue Kong took out a white feather. The feather was pure white and flawless. After it appeared, Xue Kong injected spiritual power into it, and it quickly flew up in the air as if blown by the wind.
After circling a few times in the air, the feather stopped and began to fly in a fixed direction along the direction of the feather tail.
Xue Kong looked down at Dong Shouying. She had become stupid, sitting on a maple leaf with a dull look in her eyes and a silly smile. Xue Kong grabbed her and threw her onto a dead tree to sacrifice her.
Only then did Xue Kong put away the dead tree and the evil ghost and followed the flying feather.
Gu He obviously knew that the Dou Zhuan Xing Yi formation would teleport the cultivators who entered to different locations on the Demon Island. Therefore, before entering the formation, Gu He gave the feather to Dong Shouying.
It is the feather of a monster beside Gu He. It will fly towards the monster and guide the direction.
Xue Kong was not willing to go to the trouble of killing the other monks who had escaped. Killing them would not be of much significance to him.
An hour later.
Xue Kong followed Feather and finally walked out of the maple forest. Endless mountains appeared in front of him. As far as the eye could see, there were thousands of mountains, like a giant dragon encircling the earth. The thousands of mountains were the scales on the dragon's body.
Lush and full of vitality.
Although the Demon Island is just an isolated island in the ocean, it has a very large area and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a small continent.
If you look down at the Demon Island from a high altitude, you can find that you can see the changes of the four seasons on the Demon Island. Of course, not all of these landscapes are naturally generated.
"The Earth Demon Island is filled with dangers, with countless monsters and treasures. In addition to the four caves built by the Treasure Mansion Demon Lord himself, there are also relics left behind by the cultivators who have continuously entered the Earth Demon Island over the past few decades."
"This direction should be towards the southeast, where there is an undiscovered cave."
Xue Kong looked at the direction the feather was flying and carefully identified his position.
The Demon Island is too big. Even for him, if he wants to identify the direction, he has to be very careful. Even with his current level of cultivation, it would probably take him several years to cross the entire Demon Island.
Only one of the four caves of the Demon Lord Baofu was discovered by those Jindan cultivators. At this moment, some time has passed since everyone entered the Demon Island. Presumably, the eight Jindan cultivators have already rushed to that cave.
Xue Kong thought about it and hesitated: "The locations of the four caves of the Treasure Mansion Demon Lord are mysterious and unpredictable. He named them after the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches. However, not all of the four caves contain precious treasures."
"There's a huge trap in it."
His eyes lit up. Now he was the only one who knew this secret. How could he use it to gain the greatest benefit for himself?
Xue Kong was thinking about this question in his mind.
Just as Xue Kong was following the direction of the feather and thinking about this question in his mind, suddenly a long rainbow roared across the sky and flew away.
Xue Kong raised his head and saw the long purple rainbow. Inside it was a small purple tripod. At this moment, the small tripod was shrouded in purple light and was flying in a certain direction.
Without waiting for Xue Kong to think, he put the feather away and turned to look behind him.
In his spiritual consciousness, there were many figures approaching towards him. Not long after, those figures in his spiritual consciousness appeared here one by one.
There were at least thirty or forty of them, each one at a distance from the other. Their eyes were alert and cautious as they swept across everywhere, their target being the flying purple tripod.
A cultivator was closest to Xue Kong. He glanced at Xue Kong warily and was about to pass by him.
At this moment, Xue Kong attacked without hesitation.
A dead tree half a man's height appeared and smashed straight towards the monk. The terrifying force directly swept away the monk. Although the monk had been on guard, his face changed slightly. Just as he was about to fight back, his pupils suddenly shrank.
In the corner of his eye, Xue Kong's figure suddenly disappeared from the spot.
He appeared behind the monk, raised his hand, and slapped him on the back.
boom!
The monk's attention was attracted by the dead tree, and he never thought that Xue Kong would appear behind him. He was hit hard by the palm, and immediately spit out blood and was seriously injured.
