Qingyun Town, a small town.

The flying boat approached and stopped a little outside the town.

"This city looks like it's been around for a long time."

Xiao Ye looked at the town's protective wall and spoke aloud.

For some reason, looking at the surrounding situation, he couldn't help but think of the situation of the Eastern Region that was commonly described in the territory of Yuntian Holy Land before he came to the Eastern Region.

The more I look at it, the more it resembles this place, as if it was modeled after this kind of place.

Feel it.

There is no spiritual power to speak of anywhere.

It is so thin that it is alarming.

Besides being shocked, it was also unbelievable.

If one practices in a place like this, it would be normal for one's cultivation level to decline instead of improve.

At this moment, Xiao Ye seemed to realize something and said to Gu Chen:

"It seems like everyone in the town is looking at us."

Gu Chen nodded:

"I noticed that."

"Maybe something happened. Even though they are mortals, we still need to be careful."

Having said that, Gu Chen stood up and walked towards the town.

The check-in location is in the town, so of course you have to go in.

After walking a few steps, several figures rushed into the town in panic.

When they were about the same distance, they all knelt down in front of the two men.

The group of people were all dressed simply and even shabbily, except for the middle-aged man in the lead who looked relatively better.

At this time, he kowtowed repeatedly, his voice tense and worried:

"Master, we didn't know that the evil spirit could be so powerful. The masters who came this morning have all been killed. Alas."

"Evil spirit?"

Gu Chen's expression changed slightly as he recalled the soul he had encountered in the Hundred Beasts Mountain Range before.

At that moment, his expression changed.

There are quite a few strange things happening around Jicangmen.

However, he did not ask.

Obviously, these people regarded them as members of the Ji Cangmen.

Moreover, from the looks of it, something had happened to the person from Ji Cangmen who had come earlier.

For now, it is better not to mix it well.

At that moment, Gu Chen said:

"A few. We are just passing by."

As he said this, he glanced at Xiao Ye, motioned for him to follow him, and then walked towards the village.

There was a hint of confusion in Xiao Ye's eyes.

From his point of view, Gu Chen came here from afar, and now something happened here.

But he doesn't look too concerned.

From the looks of these people, it was obvious that they were extremely afraid of the evil spirits they were talking about.

Of course, he didn't ask at the moment.

For now, let’s see what Senior Brother is planning to do.

On the other hand, Gu Chen was also thinking about what kind of reason he should use to explain this matter to Junior Brother Xiao.

Because it was such a coincidence that I just happened to run into this thing.

The two left one after the other.

The people who were originally there to greet them all shuddered, and then expressions of extreme fear appeared on their faces.

The mayor who had just spoken seemed even more terrified, and could not help but think:

"Master Shangzong must be angry. We in Qingyun City have done something we shouldn't have done again. This is simply an unforgivable sin."

Not only the people who came to greet them, but also those who stayed in the closed houses had worried expressions on their faces.

The fact that these mortals can live in this world is all thanks to the great masters. When they encounter bad things, only the great masters can take action to resolve them.

Now, the leader has lost his life because of what happened here. This is simply a great sin.

Even if several generations of people in Qingyun City were to suffer as compensation, it would still not be enough to pay it back.

But no matter what, they can only hope that these two senior masters can help them resolve this horrible evil.

Everyone had their own thoughts, but the whole world was surprisingly quiet.

Soon, the two arrived at a location near the center of the town.

Compared to other places, this place is much more spacious.

It can be said to be a square.

At this time, there were several iron cages on one side of the square.

Inside the iron cage were some lifeless corpses.

The bodies included both men and women, and even a baby.

Their clothes were disheveled, their bodies had various wounds and were stained with blood.

One of the iron cages had obvious signs of being destroyed, and on the ground around it, there were also traces of cultivators' actions.

Gu Chen glanced around.

The next moment, his eyes narrowed slightly.

The many bodies in the cage that looked like corpses were actually not dead!

In other words, there is no real death.

There is still some soul breath existing in these flesh bodies.

"Big Brother."

Xiao Ye also obviously noticed something was wrong and said in a voice transmission:

"This town is so weird. It seems like none of these people are really dead."

While transmitting the word, Xiao Ye had already taken out the array plate from his sleeve.

"Be careful and alert."

Gu Chen sent a voice message, and said quietly in his heart:

"System, sign in."

It is not advisable to stay here for long.

Complete the sign-in and get out of here!

The town, the evil, the people who were not dead but were piled together, and the excessive silence.

Very weird.

"Congratulations to the host for completing the sign-in task, and you have obtained: Saint-level mid-grade beastman - 10 drops of black dragon blood; Saint-level top-grade item - Soul Refining Cauldron *1; Random Enhancement - Strength *1."

Hearing the system's prompt, Gu Chen was slightly stunned.

Probably because there was a living black dragon next to him.

These ten drops of black dragon blood seem not too much.

As for the soul-refining dragon, a rough scan shows that it is used to refine the soul, obtain the memory of the refined soul as much as possible, and collect information.

Without further research, Gu Chen regained his focus and sent a message to Xiao Ye:

"Things here are not simple. We have to leave first."

The sign-in task has been completed and you can leave.

Now I have a reason.

Just right.

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Chen's expression changed slightly.

There was a wave coming from the other side of the square.

The next moment, a sharp and piercing sound suddenly rang out.

The sound was so mournful that it went straight into people's hearts.

"careful!"

With a low shout, Gu Chen took a step forward and stood in front of Xiao Ye.

But it seemed that Gu Chen was not the only one who could hear that miserable voice.

As the sound rang out, the people in the town present all began to tremble violently.

The evil spirit appears again!

A similar scene happened in the morning. The three senior monks who came went mad and died soon after.

Right now, these two high-ranking officials are probably...

brush.

Xiao Ye reacted quickly. The moment the sound was heard, the array in his hand was deployed.

The next moment, a scroll appeared in front of him, and he turned his head to look where the fluctuations came from.

"This is, a soul body?"

Looking at the three extremely ferocious and crazy figures, Xiao Ye's eyes froze slightly.

This soul body is not a pure soul body, it seems to be mixed with other powers.

Wherever it passed, the air was moved, stirring up gusts of cold wind, and three vague shadows could be vaguely seen.

At this moment, Xiao Ye seemed to have thought of something. Instead of activating the scroll, he took out another array and unfolded it.

The previous formation was not able to resist attacks at the soul level, but this one was specifically used to resist attacks from soul means.

brush.

The light of the formation spread out, enveloping the two of them.

At the same time, Gu Chen also took action.
