BTTH: Master of Hall of Souls

The sound of screams continued to echo beneath the bleak sky

The Black Yan Army surged into the city like a tide

Queen Medusa staggered back again and again beneath the crushing pressure of Gu Hua

the second commander of the ancient clan's Black Yan Army and a Dou Saint

With a muffled boom

Queen Medusa's fist collided with Gu Hua's enormous Dou Qi palm

The resulting explosion of energy sent her flying back over thirty meters

A faint trace of blood crept from the corner of her beautiful lips

She was still far too weak compared to a Dou Saint

Unless

She bit her red lips hard

Brilliant rainbow light began radiating from her body

gradually converging into the phantom image of a massive nine colored serpent

"Is she going to forcefully awaken her bloodline"

"This will likely cause serious damage to her body"

"It could even cause her cultivation realm to fall again"

Gu Hua was somewhat surprised

Queen Medusa glanced down at her people

slaughtered in droves below

A flash of unwavering resolve passed through her violet eyes

Her blood boiled

and the surrounding elemental energy was being devoured by the shadow of the serpent

Gu Hua chuckled darkly

Raised his palm and sent forth a golden hand to seize Queen Medusa

"Surrender

I will spare your life"

There was no time left

A wild glint surfaced in Queen Medusa's violet pupils

She was about to release her bloodline fully

But just then

a voice echoed across heaven and earth like the roar of an emperor

"My woman

no one is allowed to touch"

A terrifying wave of pressure burst forth

The countless Black Yan soldiers scattered throughout the city froze mid motion

Just as Gu Hua's golden hand was about to capture Queen Medusa

a black clad fist punched forward

With a single blow

the Dou Qi-formed giant hand was shattered to pieces

The surrounding space fractured in waves

Gu Hua's figure was blasted back nearly a hundred meters

With one trembling quake

the spatial seal he had cast crumbled like paper

Queen Medusa's heart trembled

A moment later

a warm hand gently grasped her slender white wrist

The chaotic storm of energy building within her body

and her awakening bloodline

was instantly pacified by an unseen suppression

Her waist was pulled tightly

and Queen Medusa fell into the arms of a black robed young man

the scent of masculine power filling her senses

Beside her ear

a voice sounded that was wicked mischievous and all too familiar "You foolish woman"

"If you cannot win why did you not just run"

Hearing that voice

Queen Medusa's heart rippled

A rosy flush colored her seductive and charming face

"Let me go

I have to save my people"

She struggled twice

but her wrist was firmly held by Hun Miesheng

Her body lost all strength

and she collapsed limply against him

Hun Miesheng smiled

His palm gently stroked her cheek and the fluttering strands of her dark green hair

"Leave the rest to me

Just stay here and watch"

He stepped in front of Queen Medusa

His long black hair lifted in the wind

Dark eyes locked onto Gu Hua who had just been knocked away

He stood in midair

like a king descending upon the world

Gu Hua's expression twisted in shock

He stared at the black robed youth in front of him

his eyes filled with dread

As a three star Dou Saint

he could not even see through the man's cultivation

And just now

his opponent had broken his Dou Qi palm

and crushed his spatial lock with a single punch

At the very least

this man was a Dou Saint at the same level as him

Gu Hua took a deep breath

"I am Gu Hua

second commander of the ancient clan's Black Yan Army"

"I come by the patriarch's order to search for our young miss

Who might you be"

His voice was calm

powerful

like a steel soldier trained for war

Hun Miesheng crossed his arms

chuckled lightly

"Who am I"

"You blind dog

You dare to ask me who I am"

Hearing such crude words from a Dou Saint

Gu Hua's face turned cold

Even Queen Medusa nearly laughed aloud

"Weren't you here looking for me"

Hun Miesheng's gaze turned sharp

"You are from the Soul Clan"

Gu Hua's expression sank

He stepped back

Dou Qi surged around him as he readied to strike

"You should have your people retreat from this city now"

"Otherwise

none of you will leave alive"

His tone carried absolute command

With a casual wave of his palm

a massive black wave of Dou Qi surged toward Gu Hua like an overwhelming tide

Gu Hua's face shifted

He launched several counter strikes before barely dispersing the blow

He was forced to retreat dozens of steps

His palm trembled faintly beneath the iron gauntlet

Gu Hua's pupils contracted

What terrifying power

He had fought on battlefields for decades

He believed no one could match his strength

But each strand of this man's Dou Qi felt as heavy as a mountain

When gathered

they pressed down like rivers and seas

Steadying himself

Gu Hua took a deep breath and then laughed coldly

"You really do not understand your position"

"Black Yan Army

seize them"

With a flick of his sleeve

hundreds of figures surrounded Hun Miesheng and Queen Medusa

There were at least four or five hundred Black Yan elites

Their formation was tight and disciplined

As they moved

they formed a mysterious battle array

Gu Hua sat at the core position

Each soldier radiated killing intent

The growing pressure turned into a domain of death

Gu Hua's aura began to rise rapidly

Three star Dou Saint

Four star Dou Saint

Five star Dou Saint

Peak of five star Dou Saint

In just a few breaths

his strength had reached its peak

"This is my ancient clan's inherited battle array"

"With this formation

even if your strength is greater than mine

you are no match for our Black Yan Army"

"Those caught in it

die"

"Now speak

Was it your Soul Clan who took our young miss"

"I advise you to hand her over now"

"Otherwise"

Gu Hua's tone chilled

"This city will fall"

"You will die here"

Queen Medusa bit her lips

her pale face filled with remorse

Hun Miesheng simply smiled

He glanced casually at the hundreds of Black Yan soldiers and Gu Hua at the array's core

Before the stunned eyes of all

Hun Miesheng lazily stretched his arms

Then

he spoke

"Soul Hall

come forth"

"What"

Gu Hua's face changed In the next moment

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh

Dark shadows emerged from the empty skies

Figures filled the heavens like a swarm of locusts

"Grand Elder Hun Xie greets the Palace Master"

"Second Elder Gu You greets the Palace Master"

"Third Elder Hun Jun greets the Palace Master"

"Sixth Elder greets the Palace Master"

"Eighth Elder Qiu Di greets the Palace Master"

"Ninth Elder Mo Yu greets the Palace Master"

"Black and White Elders greet the Palace Master"

The voices echoed across the nine heavens

"You want to compare numbers

I am happy to oblige"
