Coming out in droves were not only green wandering souls, but also purple wandering souls.
The strength of these purple wandering souls are all at the out-of-body stage. When their numbers increase, even the geniuses who have reached the great perfection of the out-of-body stage will not be able to withstand them.
"How is it?" Lei Xinyue asked Yu Zilang to guard the door first to prevent any wandering souls from discovering that they were here, and then returned to Jiao Yan.
"We're just one step away from an opportunity." A purple soul bead lay in Jiao Yan's palm.
Most of the energy in this soul bead was absorbed by him, and its color had faded.
"It's really impossible to break through directly." Lei Xinyue was not surprised.
If absorbing the energy of the soul bead can lead to a breakthrough to the state of out-of-body perfection, then I'm afraid that all the geniuses who come in can do it.
It is indeed not that easy to break through the Spirit Transformation Stage.
"I am confident that I can break through, but I have to go out and fight again." Jiao Yan's eyes were full of fighting spirit.
Many of the geniuses of Zixiao Sect did not achieve breakthroughs through seclusion, but gained insights or even breakthroughs through battle.
"This is the only way." Lei Xinyue nodded.
Jiao Yan handed her the other soul beads and said, "I will help you and Yu Zilang guard them. You can take advantage of the opportunity to absorb them. If you can increase your strength, then do so."
"Okay." Lei Xinyue called Yu Zilang over, "Jiao Yan will protect us, let's hurry up."
Yu Zilang didn't hesitate, grabbed a handful of soul beads, sat down and started practicing.
When Jiao Yan saw the two men begin to enter a state of meditation, he walked to the door and stood guard for them.
They were in the middle of the Immortal Palace. They killed many green wandering souls along the way and obtained a large number of green soul beads and a small number of purple soul beads.
Unexpectedly, the purple wandering soul that was originally sitting in the back also walked to the front of the stage.
They personally took command, causing these scattered green wandering souls to suddenly become orderly.
Hundreds of green wandering souls attacked together, and there were five or six purple wandering souls watching them covetously, so they had to temporarily avoid the attack.
While they were hiding and practicing, a few purple wandering souls had a little dispute.
"What are you doing here?"
Purple wandering soul number one, who was the first to discover the whereabouts of Lei Xinyue and the other two, looked at the several purple wandering souls that appeared later with dissatisfied red eyes.
Don't think it doesn't know that these people are here to steal the credit from it.
"The king has no rules. Whoever you find is yours. Whoever sees him gets a share." Wandering Soul No. 2 said with a smile.
"That's right. Whoever can capture those humans will get the credit."
The wandering souls that came later were already tangled together on a rope.
"It's true that you want to steal my purple gold nameplate." The other party snorted coldly.
"Nothing has been concluded yet. How can you be sure that these humans have purple gold nameplates?" Wandering Soul No. 3 raised an objection.
"Then why don't you just quit?" Wandering Soul No. 1 said sarcastically.
"Although it's uncertain, it's at least a chance." Wandering Soul No. 3 remained calm.
Although everyone is uncertain, the fight is still fierce.
Because they know that the human cultivators who can appear here must be strong enough and should be geniuses among the human race.
Most of the geniuses are the future top pillars of the sect. It is very likely that they come from Zixiao Sect and Jishang Sect, so no one will give up such a good opportunity.
Not long after, a low-level wandering soul came to report that they had found traces of the three humans.
"Lead the way immediately, I want to capture him myself!" Wandering Soul No. 1 walked out immediately.
The other four purple wandering souls were not willing to fall behind, and it was impossible to get rid of them anyway.
Jiao Yan soon noticed the unusual situation outside and returned immediately.
"We've been discovered."
Lei Xinyue and Yu Zilang opened their eyes at the same time.
"What's going on? Why have these wandering souls suddenly become so aggressive?" Yu Zilang said dissatisfiedly. He was about to break through to the great perfection.
By then, it wouldn't be that difficult for the three of them to join forces to deal with a few purple wandering souls.
Among the three of them, only Jiao Yan's cultivation has reached the great perfection of the out-of-body state. He and Lei Xinyue are both in the late stage of the out-of-body state.
"I think they should want the higher-level house numbers on us." Jiao Yan said indifferently.
Although there are five purple wandering souls, it is not a hell-level obstacle. If you try your best, you may be able to defeat them.
"A higher level house number?" Yu Zilang had a strange look on his face. "Isn't that Uncle Master Zhongli more dangerous than us?"
"Who knows if he has a purple gold door plate on him? Maybe he is safer than us." Lei Xinyue thought the opposite.
"Let's fight our way out first. We can't be blocked here by them." Jiao Yan said.
The three of them immediately opened the door, and while the wandering souls had not yet reacted, they used a big move to beat them into pieces, and then the three of them rushed out in one direction.
A large number of wandering souls rushed forward, and not only could they not be stopped, but more and more people died.
"Looks like we have to take action ourselves." said Wandering Soul No. 2.
“These three humans are so powerful, they must be disciples of Zixiao Sect or Jishang Sect.” Wandering Soul No. 3 stared at them greedily, as if the three of them were a big piece of fat meat.
"What are you waiting for? Just kill them and make them hand over the purple gold nameplate." Wandering Soul No. 4 couldn't wait any longer and was about to rush out with Wandering Soul No. 5.
"Wait, why don't we first ask them if they are disciples of Zixiao Sect or Jishang Sect." Wandering Soul No. 1 didn't want to waste time, so he ordered his men to stop attacking.
Just as Jiao Yan was about to rush out, he found that these wandering souls suddenly retreated like the tide.
Several powerful forces came from the front, they were the five purple wandering souls.
"I am asking you a question, answer honestly, are you all disciples of Zixiao Sect?" Wandering Soul No. 1 looked at him grimly.
"What does this wandering soul mean? We should beat it if we want to, but it even asks if we are from Zixiao Sect?" Yu Zilang turned around and asked his two fellow disciples.
"It's strange that they suddenly stopped attacking just to ask this question." Lei Xinyue analyzed calmly.
"Their target is the house number." Jiao Yan also said.
"Could they be trying to determine the level of our doorplates based on our sect?" Yu Zilang looked incredulous.
"It may not be impossible. Our sect is the largest sect in Lingtian Continent. It is normal for these wandering souls to have heard of it. Their target is likely the Purple Gold Sect."
"Then it's even more impossible to tell them." Yu Zilang's eyes lit up, and he suddenly had a good idea, "I have a way, watch me."
He strode forward and shouted to the purple wandering soul who was asking questions, "I am a disciple of the Supreme Sect. Get out of here if you know what's best for you, or I'll kill you."
"Are you an idiot?" Lei Xinyue thought he would say something, but she didn't expect him to pretend to be a disciple of the Supreme Sect. She was pissed off by him.
"How am I an idiot?" Yu Zilang was unconvinced.
The five purple wandering souls told him the answer directly through their actions.
They acted simultaneously with almost no signaling.
"Hand over the purple gold nameplate, or you will die!" The wandering soul at the front shouted with a cold face.
"Oh shit." Yu Zilang was stunned. He forgot that Ji Shang Sect was the second largest sect.
"Why don't you run!" Lei Xinyue said unhappily, and rushed towards the exit in another direction at the same time as Jiao Yan.
This place is too narrow, which affects their performance. If they want to play, they have to find a spacious place.
…
"I am the pride of the Jishang Sect. You guys are not enough to fill my teeth." Chen Binyu, who was also questioned by the purple wandering soul, introduced himself without saying a word.
Wen Hongru, who was standing aside, held a knife in his hand that was full of murderous aura, and looked ready to strike out immediately.
The two purple wandering souls on the opposite side looked at each other, saw the plot in each other's red eyes, and rushed over without saying a word.
Chen Binyu and his companions thought that it would not be difficult to deal with the two purple wandering souls, but they did not know that his words had already spread.
Knowing that there were disciples from the Supreme Sect here, the other purple wandering souls all ran over.
…
"Are you a disciple of the Zixiao Sect or the Jishang Sect?"
A purple wandering soul blocked Zhongli Tingzhou's way and stared at him coldly, as if he were a dead person.
Zhongli Tingzhou also looked at it with interest, as if he was looking at a dead person.
During this period of time, he had killed at least a dozen purple wandering souls, if not twenty. Later, except for green and red wandering souls, purple wandering souls were almost nowhere to be seen.
He had been searching for half an hour, but he didn't expect a purple wandering soul to run up to him.
Behind him was a little wandering soul holding two green soul beads and constantly absorbing energy.
The dozen or so purple wandering souls killed by Zhongli Tingzhou were all brought away by it, so it was rewarded with a dozen green soul beads.
"Why should I be a disciple of these two sects? Can't I be a disciple of other sects?" Zhongli Tingzhou asked with great interest.
“Of course you can. If you are a disciple of these two sects and hand over the purple gold nameplate, I can consider sparing your life. If not, then you will die!” said the purple ghost grimly.
Zhongli Tingzhou became even more curious, "How do you know that the purple gold doorplate is in the hands of the people from these two sects?"
"You talk too much nonsense. If you don't stop, I will kill you right now." The purple wandering soul's red eyes revealed murderous intent.
"Well, I am a disciple of Zixiao Sect." Zhongli Tingzhou shrugged and said, "It doesn't matter if I tell you. It's a courtesy. Shouldn't you also tell me who told you that the purple gold doorplate is in Zixiao Sect or Jishang Sect?"
When the Purple Wandering Soul heard him admit that he was a disciple of the Zixiao Sect, his face was filled with excitement and he didn't even bother to answer his questions.
"You really are, hand over the purple gold nameplate!"
Zhongli Tingzhou's face darkened. "I said courtesy should be reciprocated. Don't you understand what I'm saying? Do you really want me to talk nonsense?"
Facing his threat, the Purple Wandering Soul snorted coldly, "If you don't tell me, I will beat you until you tell me."
The purple wandering soul who said this did not notice that the little wandering soul behind him who was gnawing on the soul bead paused for a moment and looked at it with an expression as if it was an idiot.
The purple wandering soul intended to teach the other party a lesson, and rushed over at an extremely fast speed after saying it.
A few minutes later, the purple wandering soul lay weakly on the ground, its red eyes filled with fear, staring at Zhongli Tingzhou who was walking towards it.
A wisp of black gas drilled out of its body and returned to the fingertips of this terrifying human.
