Fights Break Sphere: Thunder Shattered

Chapter 365 The Real Deal—Soul Destroyed!
The old ghost pointed at Xiao Tian with trembling fingers, wanting to say something, perhaps to curse, perhaps to roar, but his throat seemed to be gripped by an invisible hand, and he could not make a sound!
His pupils began to dilate, and all the color drained from his face instantly!
"boom!!"

His body shuddered violently, then collapsed limply like a rag doll whose soul had been ripped out, his head slamming heavily into the ground, and he remained motionless.

Xiao Tian slowly withdrew his hand, his gaze indifferent as he looked at the corpse of Old Ghost Zhaixing lying on the spot.

His soul was completely crushed the moment the palm print landed!
Truly—the soul was annihilated!
This is the terrifying nature of soul combat techniques. In other combat techniques, there is still a possibility of the soul escaping, but in this, there is no such possibility.

Old Medicine Doctor: Are you targeting me?

Han Feng: I think he's targeting me.
"Dou Zun, is he really dead?" Han Xue and Hu Jia came up behind Xiao Tian and asked uncertainly, looking at the blood-covered, unseeing old ghost Zhaixing.

"Of course, the kind where the soul is scattered to the winds. Why don't you ask him if he can still answer you?" Xiao Tian said, amused, looking at the two of them.

Hu Jia and the other person came to the old ghost Zhaixing and gently kicked him, but found that there was no reaction.

"Wow, they've come back to life!!" Xiao Tian approached them, gently touching their shoulders, and said in a chilling tone. (Friendly reminder: Don't do this in the real world.)
"Ahhh!!!" The two instantly showed fear and burst into screams comparable to a woman's self-defense technique.

Hu Jia reacted extremely quickly, performing a backflip to create distance and heading into the deep pit.

She pounced into Xiao Tian's arms like an octopus, tightly hugging his waist with both hands, burying her head in his chest, and instinctively squeezing her legs together, just like a frightened koala.

Hu Jia: ? ? ? ? ?
Hu Jia suddenly squinted and saw the expression on Han Xue's face, and suddenly realized that her own brain was indeed not as good as other people's.

Okay, so you're all in cahoots with your sister, but you play mind games with her and don't even invite her when something good happens!
"Alright, alright, I was just kidding. That guy is completely dead, his soul has been scattered. Besides, you're a cultivator, how can you be afraid of this?" Xiao Tian gently patted her back.

"Girls are naturally afraid of this," Han Xue said sweetly.

Hu Jia returned to Xiao Tian's side, rolled her eyes at him, and stood aside with her arms crossed: "Hmph, childish brat."

Then she glanced at Han Xue playfully, and Han Xue winked at her secretly, as if to say: Did you learn something, sister?

"Alright, come down now, it's time to reap the spoils." Xiao Tian gently patted Han Xue's body and said softly.

Han Xue didn't linger. She slowly got off Xiao Tian and then straightened her clothes.

Hu Jia also came over, her eyes filled with excitement: "Quick, let me see how rich Dou Zun's collection is."

A Dou Zun, a realm he himself dared not even dream of, was now lying right in front of him.

With a wave of his hand, Xiao Tian's Star-Picking Old Ghost's storage ring instantly detached from his finger and flew towards him. He casually broke the restrictions inside, checked that there were no other hidden items, and then waved to Hu Jia and the other person.

And so, the three of them divided up his inheritance right in front of Old Ghost Zhaixing.

If the old ghost Zhaixing could stand up, he would probably jump up and curse: "You're inhuman! Doing this in front of me is no different from whipping a corpse. Why don't you grind my bones to dust first?"

...Just as Xiao Tian and the others were dividing the spoils, in a gloomy valley, there was a huge black palace. In a huge secret chamber of the palace, two old men, one in black and one in white, sat facing each other.

"Dong Dong!!"

"Reporting to the Heavenly Venerable, I have important news to report."

After the knock, a respectful voice came from outside.

The two old men opened their eyes instantly, and the old man in black robes said hoarsely, "Enter!!"

After he finished speaking, the black door slowly opened, and a man completely covered in black armor strode in. He knelt down not far from the two of them, his body trembling slightly.

"Speak!" the white-robed elder said indifferently. The armored man felt a powerful pressure and knelt down on the ground with his head down.

"Reporting to the Black and White Celestial Venerables, the Star-Picking Celestial Venerable's...his...soul jade tablet is shattered!!!" The man trembled uncontrollably, making his speech fragmented.

"What?!?!" Black Heavenly Venerable stood up abruptly, his aura bursting out uncontrollably, and the armored man was instantly knocked away by this aura.

"Bang!" The armored man slammed heavily against the wall, causing the entire wall to collapse. The man's body fell off the wall and crashed to the ground.

"Old Black, what are you doing? Tone down your aura." Bai Tianzun put his hand on Hei Tianzun's shoulder and said in a deep voice.

Black Celestial hurriedly concealed his aura and pulled the armored man over to ask him some questions, only to find that the man was already dead.

"Bad luck!!" Black Heavenly Venerable casually threw the man to the ground.

"Old Black, you need to control your temper more." Bai Tianzun patted Black Heavenly Venerable on the shoulder, then continued:
"Wasn't Old Ghost supposed to be capturing Xiao Tian and the Xiao family? How did he die so mysteriously? There's no way those people from the remote countryside could kill Old Ghost. Even if the two of us joined forces, it would be difficult to kill him."

Bai Tianzun narrowed his eyes slightly and analyzed 'rationally': "Could it be that other forces have made a move, such as the Pill Tower or those people?"

"I don't know, but with Old Ghost Zhaixing's strength as a peak five-star Dou Zun, even if someone is one star higher than him, he can still run away if he can't beat them. A Heavenly Venerable has died, and we must report this matter. The rest is up to the Palace Master or the Deputy Palace Master to handle. Anyway, it has nothing to do with us." Black Heavenly Venerable crossed his arms and said in a deep voice.

As for avenging the old ghost Zhaixing, neither of them had such thoughts. The relationship between the Heavenly Venerables of the Soul Palace was just that of ordinary colleagues, and they were even scheming against each other and climbing up the ladder by stepping on each other.

"Well, the higher-ups will investigate anyway, and they might still need us to take action. After all, Old Ghost Zhaixing was one of our disciples who advanced to Heavenly Venerable from our branch hall." Bai Tianzun nodded indifferently, presumably knowing that the higher-ups already knew. In any case, it wouldn't implicate the two of them, but they would definitely be assigned to the task.

"What a useless piece of trash, he can even kill himself by doing a single mission!" Black Celestial said with a displeased expression.

Bai Tianzun glanced at Hei Tianzun and slowly said, "It seems the waters of Zhongzhou are about to be stirred up; a change is imminent."
