Fighting: I am Han Feng, I respect my teacher

For at least three years, the Han family will not have to worry about the Hong family's comeback.

As for which of the two families will be stronger three years from now, that's not a question Han Feng should be concerned with.

Hong Chen's talent is indeed not weak. He has entered the high-level Dou Huang at a young age. Even in the Starfall Pavilion, he is a top-ranked figure.

Compared to him, Han Yue was far inferior.

But who can blame her when she has the Black Corner Domain backing her up?

As a result, the Han family also benefited.

Han Feng left Tianbei City and headed towards the next city.

For the next week, Han Feng investigated the situation of the Soul Palace.

There are quite a few branch halls that the Soul Extermination Division has already investigated, but some of the more hidden ones still require Han Feng to investigate personally.

"Almost all of the Soul Hall organizations in the Northern Region are listed above."

Han Feng unfolded a map of the Northern Region, which had some bright red crosses on it, indicating the location of the Soul Hall's branch hall.

The efficiency of a Dou Sheng powerhouse in conducting investigations is many times greater than it was back then. Han Feng no longer needs to ask others for help; he can complete these tasks quickly on his own.

Just to be on the safe side, Han Feng personally infiltrated and probed these branch halls to confirm that there was no Soul-Devouring Life-Severing Array below before he was relieved.

Setting up a ninth-grade formation is quite difficult and cannot be done casually; otherwise, Han Feng would probably be busy again.

"We couldn't find any of the real senior executives; they were all temporary hires."

Han Feng narrowed his eyes.

The Soul Palace is indeed cautious; they must have learned their lesson.

"Alright, let's stop here for now."

Han Feng put away the map and decided on his first target.

"The Soul Palace's newly appointed Fifth Heavenly Venerable, the Yin-Yang Heavenly Venerable!"

Leave

It's November. The typhoon passed yesterday, and it's been drizzling all day today.

I got home quite late, and after resting for a while, I realized I didn't have time to update, so I decided to take a day off.

Chapter 298 The Great Millstone of Yin and Yang

The Northern Regions, a vast and abyss-like land.

A massive branch of the Soul Palace was built here.

Because it was built relatively recently, it looks very new from the outside.

It lacked the ancient and profound atmosphere of the Soul Palaces in the Western Regions.

The venerable elder who presides over this hall is a Celestial Venerable-level figure, known as the "Yin Yang Celestial Venerable".

In the vast Central Continent, countless extraordinary and powerful individuals have emerged, and Yin Yang Celestial Venerable is just one of them.

Before he became famous, he was a direct disciple of the Yin-Yang Sect and mastered the sect's core technique, the Yin-Yang Limitless Technique.

As a prodigy of the Yin-Yang Sect, he lived up to expectations, breaking through to the Dou Zun realm at the age of over two hundred, shocking the surrounding sects.

It should be noted that among Dou Zun powerhouses with a lifespan of a thousand years, breaking through at two hundred years old is equivalent to an ordinary person's twenty years old.

At the age of twenty, he possessed unparalleled strength that others envied, which can be said to have allowed him to reach the pinnacle of life at a very young age.

Unfortunately, after a century of cultivation, this prodigy of the Yin-Yang Sect deeply felt the limits of his own talent.

Once you break through to the Five-Star Dou Zun level, it may take decades to make any further progress.

He sought elixirs and ventured into secret realms, yet he still couldn't find an opportunity to advance further.

So, at this critical juncture, the Soul Palace approached him, and he readily agreed.

Looking at the major forces in Zhongzhou, although there are many sects more famous than Yin Yang Sect, he, who has already reached the Five-Star Dou Zun realm, would naturally not condescend to join the Two Sects and Three Valleys.

Originally, the Tianming Sect might have been a good place to go, but a few years ago, the Tianming Sect was suspected of being attacked by an unparalleled powerful figure, so its arrogance has diminished considerably, and it no longer dares to expand outwards. The recruitment of honorary elders has also been put on hold.

Seeing that it had lost its edge, the Yin-Yang Celestial Venerable did not choose to go.

Therefore, the Soul Palace became the most suitable choice for him.

The secret techniques, precious medicines, and opportunities of the Soul Palace all made him feel that there was hope for the future.

And that was indeed the case. Just two years after joining the Soul Palace, he successfully broke through the threshold and advanced to the level of a six-star Dou Zun.

Although a six-star Dou Zun is nothing special among the experts of the Soul Hall, some of the experts who joined the Soul Hall in the same batch as him have already reached the high-level Dou Zun, and there are even some who have entered the peak Dou Zun stage of the Nine Revolutions to Sainthood.

It was only then that Yin Yang Celestial Venerable realized that there were so many powerful figures hidden in the Central Plains.

As the leading power in Zhongzhou, the Soul Palace was far too large for him to even imagine.

A power qualified to recruit peak Dou Zun must have a Palace Master who is at least a Half-Saint or even a Dou Saint!

This further strengthened Yin Yang Celestial Venerable's determination to continue to establish a foothold in the Soul Palace.

Even though his mission was to harvest the souls of those with powerful soul talents, requiring him to kill numerous geniuses, Yin Yang Celestial Venerable didn't care at all.

There are countless people and geniuses on the Dou Qi Continent. How many can he kill by himself?

All he cared about was the share of souls he had to hand over each time!

Only by acquiring more outstanding souls can he obtain merit points from the Soul Palace, which can then be exchanged for secret techniques and precious medicines that are unavailable outside!

Yin Yang Celestial Venerable frowned as he looked at the portion of soul bodies his subordinate had delivered this time.

"Why so little?"

"Heavenly Venerable, recently all the families have been on high alert, making it quite difficult for our people to seize an opportunity to attack those prodigies."

"Hmph, if there's no opportunity, we'll create one! Have you forgotten all the methods the Soul Palace taught you?"

Yin Yang Celestial Venerable rebuked.

Feeling the immense pressure emanating from his superior, the subordinate who was reporting broke out in a cold sweat.

"Yes, Your Majesty! We'll go and make the arrangements right away!"

Yin Yang Heavenly Venerable returned to his seat of honor.

"By the way, how's the situation on the Northwest Continent?"

Not long ago, their Northern Region Soul Palace branch organized a joint operation to harvest resources from the Northwest Continent.

That remote and impoverished area in the Northwest Continent, despite its garbage, has a considerable population.

By using quantity to pass off inferior goods, even if the quality of the souls is low, it is enough for them to make a fortune.

"They've already started mobilizing. Wars have broken out in various places, and our people are doing their best to harvest souls. The first batch of harvest should arrive in a few days!"

Yin Yang Celestial Venerable nodded in satisfaction, waved his hand, and signaled his subordinates to leave.

In the spacious hall, Yin Yang Celestial Venerable sat quietly in his seat, a smug smile playing on his lips as he seemed to be lost in thought.

"what are you laughing at?"

Suddenly, a voice came from the darkness.

Yin Yang Celestial Venerable instantly became alert, stood up abruptly, and scanned his surroundings.

"who?!"

Han Feng slowly emerged from the shadows, his face, adorned with a mysterious mask, exuding an ancient and profound aura.

"Pretend to be a ghost!"

Yin Yang Celestial Venerable narrowed his eyes, stretched out his large hand, and the laws of Yin and Yang flowed, sealing off the surrounding space as he reached out to grab Han Feng.

boom!

A massive energy shockwave struck, but Han Feng was nowhere to be seen.

Upon missing his target, the Yin-Yang Celestial Venerable's pupils suddenly contracted.

A dragon-shaped tail flew through the air, and Han Feng appeared in front of Yin Yang Heavenly Venerable in the next instant.

"A fine Yin-Yang principle, what a pity."

Han Feng raised his palm, formed a dragon claw shape, and launched a claw!

The Yin-Yang Celestial Venerable was greatly alarmed and quickly constructed the Yin-Yang Laws, holding them in front of his chest as a shield.

The Yin and Yang principles, one black and one white, formed a black and white millstone, guarding the Yin Yang Celestial Venerable.

However, the azure dragon claw completely ignored the defense of the Yin-Yang Law and instantly blasted into the body of the Yin-Yang Celestial Venerable.

歘!

Behind them, in the main hall of the Soul Palace, a long gap had been punched into the roof beam by claw marks.

Yin Yang Celestial Venerable's body trembled violently, then he raised an incredulous expression and looked at Han Feng.

"you......."

With that single strike, all of Yin Yang Celestial Venerable's internal organs were torn apart, leaving him with no chance of survival.

Despite his seemingly intact appearance, his internal condition is a complete mess, and even taking elixirs will be of no use.

With his last ounce of strength, Yin Yang Celestial Venerable threw his soul out of his body and flew toward the hole in the roof.

However, the next second, a black sword pierced his soul.

Yin Yang Celestial Venerable stared blankly at his pierced soul, then let out a shrill scream and vanished into the world.

At this moment, the crowd outside the hall noticed something was wrong and began to gather in large numbers towards the hall.

"Heavenly Venerable One, something has happened..."

The subordinate who had just come to inquire happened to witness Yin Yang Celestial Venerable being killed by Han Feng, and he immediately froze on the spot.

Han Feng looked over with a cold gaze.

"Not one left."

One after another, puppets flew out of the void and surrounded the entire Soul Palace.

Han Feng stood quietly in the main hall of the Soul Palace.

A moment later, the sounds of fighting outside quieted down.

A blood-soaked puppet entered the main hall and reported the battle results to Han Feng.

All the members of the Soul Hall in this branch hall have been killed.

Han Feng nodded and stepped into the sky.

He looked down at the Soul Palace branch below and raised his palm.

"Azure Dragon Seal!"

boom!

A heavy palm print, containing the true essence of the Azure Dragon, slammed down.

The once intact branch of the Soul Palace was instantly reduced to dust, leaving only a deep palm print.

----------

In the following three days, Han Feng destroyed several more Soul Palaces.

At this point, even if the Soul Palace were slow to react, they should have noticed something amiss.

In the Northern Abyss, a dark slit tore open in the sky, and a slightly hunched figure stepped out from it.

Looking down at the area below, which had once been the Soul Hall's encampment but was now a ruin, an uncontrollable rage emanated from the man's eyes.

"The Soul-Slaying Division! It's definitely the Soul-Slaying Division!"

The Second Heavenly Venerable of the Soul Palace, Gu You, unleashed a roar that shook the entire world.

A dignified high-level half-saint, he actually watched the leader of the Soul Extermination Division escape and was thoroughly mocked by him.

This humiliation will be etched in my memory for the rest of my life!
