Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao, the villain from a parallel world

There was another person following behind her. Although Huo Yuhao's footsteps were so light that they were almost silent, the invisible presence of him still made her heart beat faster involuntarily.

This courtyard is inconspicuous among the many buildings around it.

Nana raised her hand and knocked lightly on the door, five times in total, three long and two short.

The door quietly opened a crack, and she ducked in.

In a small alley about 300 meters away from the building, a pair of eyes were fixed on the door that was quietly opening and closing.

"Another evil spirit master has arrived."

Ye Guyi crouched in the shadows of the corner, watching the entire process of the black-robed man entering the branch, a cold smile curling at the corner of his mouth.

She had been watching this branch of evil spirit masters for a long time, but due to her shallow cultivation, she was unable to eradicate the entire branch. She could only lie in wait nearby and hunt down those evil spirit masters who were alone.

Her Holy Angel Martial Soul has a natural advantage against Evil Soul Masters. Every time she kills an Evil Soul Master, the power of her Martial Soul increases, and her cultivation speed also increases accordingly.

Coupled with her own righteous indignation, she has traveled all over the continent over the years, targeting evil spirit masters, until she came to Mingdu, this "treasure land".

The number of evil spirit masters in this one branch of the Holy Spirit Cult is more than all the ones she has seen outside in the past few years combined.

So she decided to stay in Mingdu permanently, secretly investigating the Holy Spirit Cult while hunting down lone evil spirit masters.

Several months ago, she discovered a mysterious figure in Mingdu who specialized in devouring the souls of evil spirit masters.

She wanted to find and deal with that person as well, but every time she arrived at the scene, she was a step too late and couldn't even catch a glimpse of him.

After investigating for a long time without any results, she had no choice but to temporarily put this lead aside and refocus her attention on this branch.

Ye Guyi held her breath, her gaze fixed firmly on the tightly closed door.

She had been here many times and had figured out the activity patterns of the branch staff.

After a while, a group of evil spirit masters will come out from inside, and that will be the best time for her to make her move.

Inside the branch, as soon as Nana entered, she saw a young man dressed entirely in black and wearing a straw hat standing guard by the passageway.

She subconsciously tensed her back, but the young man merely nodded slightly to her before stepping aside, ignoring Huo Yuhao behind her.

Nana was secretly amazed.

Huo Yuhao was clearly right behind her, but these people seemed to completely ignore him.

After passing through the narrow passage, the view suddenly opened up.

The courtyard is secluded and winding, filled with all kinds of plants, and the tall trellis is covered with vines, completely blocking the view from the sky.

This was a very common arrangement in the Ming capital, designed to prevent people in high-rise buildings from peeping into the privacy of their own courtyards.

The building appears to occupy only a little over a hundred square meters from the outside, but its interior is a completely different world.

Two people dressed in white stood in the room. They were not wearing straw hats, but hoods that matched the color of their clothes.

Seeing Nana walk in, one of them raised his hand to stop her and made a gesture to her.

Nana took out a round, jet-black token from her waist and handed it over. A skull was faintly engraved on the token.

The two men in white glanced at the token and said coldly, "You've already been here once this month, you can't come again. Leave."

Nana didn't argue when she heard this. She turned around expressionlessly and made a move to leave.

The moment she turned around, Huo Yuhao's figure appeared in the center of the room without warning.

A living person suddenly appeared out of nowhere, startling all the evil spirit masters in the room.

Huo Yuhao scanned his surroundings expressionlessly; his mental power had already thoroughly explored the entire branch.

There were sixteen evil soul masters on the ground, all of whom were at the Soul Master level; there were also two stronger auras at the underground altar, two Soul Emperors, who were guarding the altar.

A servant in the corner suddenly realized what was happening and opened his mouth to shout a warning.

However, even though he opened his mouth, not a single sound came out of his throat.

Huo Yuhao's eyes had turned into pure black ink, and his terrifying mental power erupted like an invisible storm.

Countless invisible mental chains extended silently from all directions, precisely binding the limbs and bones of every evil spirit master present.

The sixteen evil soul masters at the Soul Master level froze simultaneously, their soul power frozen solid, unable to be mobilized even a trace.

Their movements, reactions, and even breathing were completely shut down at this moment.

Immediately afterwards, the inky black light deep within Huo Yuhao's pupils surged once more.

Sixteen invisible mental shocks, like sixteen invisible arrows, precisely pierced the brows of each evil spirit master.

The evil spirit masters who were bound by chains trembled violently, their eyes becoming unfocused and confused in an instant.

Their pupils contracted and dilated sharply, and all the thoughts in their minds were shattered into pieces.

The distinction between friend and foe, direction, and even the most basic ability to think all vanish in this moment.

The moment the shackles on the soul were released, the entire room erupted in chaos.

The first to lose control was the holy servant who was closest to the door.

He suddenly turned around and grabbed at his companion's throat with one claw, his five fingers digging directly into the other's flesh.

The attacked companion let out a shrill scream, drew his short knife from his waist and stabbed back, one stab after another, blood and flesh flying everywhere, but the expression on his face remained blank and confused.

The other evil spirit masters also erupted simultaneously like a powder keg that had been lit. Some activated their martial spirits to unleash their strongest soul skills, while others pounced on the attack with their bare hands to tear at the enemy.

Chapter 72 Unilateral Massacre

Blood splattered everywhere in the room, screams and maniacal laughter mingled together, everyone was frantically killing each other as if they were facing a group of irreconcilable enemies.

Nana stood there dumbfounded, staring at the hellish scene before her, so shocked that she forgot to step back.

Although she had followed Huo Yuhao for nine months, this was the first time she had witnessed such terrifying methods firsthand.

In the blink of an eye, sixteen evil soul masters at the Soul Master level were manipulated by him like puppets.

It was truly shocking.

"Alright." Huo Yuhao withdrew his gaze, his tone as calm as if nothing had happened. "Now come downstairs with me. Those two should have realized what's going on by now."

Nana snapped out of her daze and nodded quickly.

The two bypassed the chaotic hall and quickly entered the house.

The room was simply furnished, looking like an ordinary family home.

Nana walked to a table, raised her hand and pressed down on it, causing the four table legs to slowly embed themselves into the ground.

With the creaking of the mechanism turning, an entrance about one square meter in size cracked open on the side of the table, and a dim light shone from below.

Nana ducked and crawled inside, with Huo Yuhao following closely behind. The two of them quickly descended the straight passageway.

Before they reached the end, they bumped into two white-clad men rushing uphill.

Unlike the holy servants on the ground, these two had silver decorative patterns on their white robes.

It was the two Holy Spirits of this division, the Great Holy Spirit and the Two Holy Spirits.

The elder who was at the Soul Saint level happened to be absent today.

"It's you?" The Great Holy Spirit recognized Nana at a glance and shouted sternly, "What exactly happened up there!"

Nana remained silent. Behind her, Huo Yuhao's figure transformed into a black afterimage and pounced directly on the Second Holy Spirit.

The two Holy Spirits reacted extremely quickly, letting out a sharp shriek as the six spirit rings beneath their feet suddenly lit up.

Two yellow, two purple, and two black – the standard Soul Emperor configuration.

All six spirit rings simultaneously ignited, transforming into black flames that completely enveloped his body.

Within the black flames, the bodies of the two Holy Spirits suddenly swelled, their robes shattering inch by inch.

The person suddenly grew to more than three meters tall, his skin and flesh completely melted away, revealing the dark bones below, and in an instant, he turned into a huge black skeleton.

"Intruders, die!" the two Holy Spirits roared.

Huo Yuhao neither dodged nor evaded, and a jet of dark light burst forth from between the five fingers of his right hand.

With the Soul-Devouring Grip, his hand precisely caught the black skull's slashing bone arm.

The moment his palm touched the bone, the Second Holy Spirit shuddered violently, and an extremely shrill scream burst from his vocal cordless skull.

"Ah!"

Attacks with mental attributes are the natural nemesis of evil soul masters, not to mention that Huo Yuhao's devouring power directly tore into his soul's origin.

The two Holy Spirits felt as if their souls were being gripped tightly by an invisible claw, being forcibly torn from the depths of every bone.

Taking advantage of the situation, Huo Yuhao pressed forward, striking again and again with palms that landed squarely on the skin.

With each additional contact, the souls of the two Holy Spirits weakened a little more.

After several rounds, the three-meter-tall black skeleton was forced to retreat repeatedly by Huo Yuhao, who was so small, and couldn't even mount a proper counterattack.

The Holy Spirit, who was standing nearby, was terrified.

He couldn't understand who this suddenly appearing boy was, but he knew that if things continued like this, the two Holy Spirits would surely die.

His gaze suddenly swept towards Nana, who was standing at the entrance of the passageway, and a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

If we can capture this woman, we can use her to blackmail the boy.

He moved swiftly, lunging towards Nana.

However, after taking only two steps, he suddenly froze in place.

Countless invisible chains coiled around him from all directions, locking his limbs and bones firmly, making it impossible for him to move even a single finger.

Huo Yuhao's mental power covered the entire arena, and he could perceive every movement on the field.

Huo Yuhao ignored the Great Holy Spirit who was frozen in place and turned his gaze back to the disheveled Second Holy Spirit in front of him.

He planned to finish the fight quickly and eliminate the two evil soul emperors.

His hands were enveloped in a chaotic power of pure, inky black light.

The flames were not intense, but they emitted a strange aura that caused the surrounding air to distort violently.

He clenched his right fist and punched the two Holy Spirits in the chest.

Wherever the fist passes, all order crumbles.
