Peerless War God

"This old man has prepared for a long time. This is a specially made soul crystal, and I will enter it. You can leave with the soul crystal. Remember the promise you made with me." The Great Elder said in a deep voice.    

He took out a soul crystal, and then his entire body turned into a ray of light that entered the soul crystal.    

As a result, the originally black and ugly soul crystal started to glow with a warm light as if it was alive.    

Only a soul could change its form and enter the soul crystal.    

Holding the soul crystal in his hand, countless thoughts flashed through Chen Xiao's mind. After a while, he took out the jade slip and crushed it.    

A strange soul power rushed out of the jade slip and wrapped around Chen Xiao's entire body. Then, it soared into the sky, turned into a ray of light, and escaped from the world within the painting.    

Almost at the same time, in the underground secret chamber of the Heavenly River Gu Clan.    

A black dot of light flew out from the Mountain and River Diagram and appeared in the air. It was exactly what Chen Xiao looked like.    

Before he could clearly see the situation in the secret room, the soul crystal in his hand gave off a scorching force. Subconsciously, he let go of it.    

The soul crystal that contained the Water Moon City's Great Elder fell.    

Seeing this, Chen Xiao was greatly shocked. He didn't know what to do, and became very anxious in his heart.    

Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded, "Return to your physical body quickly."    

It was the voice of the Lord Marquis Zi Jin. Chen Xiao no longer hesitated and turned into a ray of light, rushing towards the body on the ground, and his soul returned to his acupoint.    

Suddenly, an awkward and strange feeling entered his mind, but he slowly got used to it.    

This was because his soul had left his body for too long, and it was not perfectly compatible with him. It would recover bit by bit.    

"Where did the Great Elder's soul crystal go?"    

At this time, Chen Xiao could not care about anything else. He hurriedly looked around, only to find that the soul crystal with the Great Elder was trapped in the air.    

An invisible force formed a spherical barrier and locked onto it.    

Seeing this, he was immediately shocked. He had been discovered.    

Very quickly, Chen Xiao reacted and sent a sound transmission to Gu Changsheng and the Marquis of Purple Gold at the same time, saying, "There is a member of the Soul Race in the soul crystal."    

"What?" Gu Changsheng was slightly shocked when he heard this. The expression on his face became more serious and irritated.    

"Oh? Soul Race clansman? Interesting." After the Marquis Zi Jin heard this, he looked at Gu Changsheng with a smile that was not a smile.    

It seemed as if he was looking at Gu Changsheng as a joke.    

One had to know that the members of the Soul Race in the world of the Mountain and River Diagram were split from the souls that Gu Changsheng had thrown in. In other words, the existence of the members of the Soul Race was the most authentic portrayal of Gu Changsheng's sins.    

Now that all of this had been exposed to the sun, it would naturally cause others to lose face.    

At this time, Chen Xiao noticed that in this secret chamber, a few disciples of the Gu Family who had entered the Mountain and River Diagram earlier had also come out.    

However, what was different from before was that there were only nine people who had entered, but only five people had come out.    

There were four disciples of the Gu Clan who had stayed in the world in the painting forever. If Han Guang was included, then five of them had died, and half of them had been lost.    

It was clear that the world in the painting was dangerous.    

Suddenly, the soul crystal in the air began to change. It began to expand, as if there was a powerful force attacking the barrier from the inside out. It kept twisting and changing shape, trying to break out.    

"It's the Great Elder who wants to come out. This..."    

Chen Xiao was shocked. He looked nervously at Gu Changsheng and the Duke of Purple Gold.    

"Gu Changsheng, you still have to settle this debt by yourself. If you can't do it, I can also make a move." The Marquis Zi Jin said with a smile.    

Gu Changsheng glared at Chen Xiao and complained a little. He then sneered and said, "No need. A mere Soul Race is nothing."    

"Look at the sky, what is that? It seems like something is about to come out."    

"I feel a familiar aura. Could it be that the Soul Race is hiding within?"    

A few of the Gu Clan disciples also noticed this, and they looked at the strange situation in the air with fear on their faces.    

Then, the sphere shield expanded and continued to expand until it revealed a somewhat horrifying old face that had been twisted.    

It was the First Elder!    

At this moment, only his wrinkled face could be seen. It was clear that the sphere-shaped shield created by Gu Changsheng had put a lot of pressure on him.    

The Great Elder widened his eyes, which were like bells as they spun around crazily, looking at the situation around him.    

His eyes were filled with doubt, shock, and a sense of extreme absurdity.    

"Haha, this is the real world. Is this the truth? I..."    

Before he could finish his words, Gu Changsheng made his move. He raised his hand and shot out a beam of light, piercing through the spherical barrier.    

It seemed as if a bubble had been broken and instantly exploded in midair. Along with the Great Elder, they turned into ashes and were annihilated.    

The Great Elder had died, and with great difficulty, he managed to borrow Chen Xiao's help to escape from the world of the Mountain and River Diagram.    

Just to take a look at the so-called truth, he had paid the price with his own life. He didn't know if it was worth it.    

But to Chen Xiao, this was a great thing.    

He couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief, "It's good that he's dead. There will be no witnesses and no one will know what he did in it. That's good."    

"No more?"    

"Is this Soul Race clansman dead?"    

When the few disciples of the Gu family below saw this scene, they all raised their heads, filled with shock.    

They completely had no idea of what had just happened. All they saw was a member of the Soul Race actually charging out of the Mountain and River Diagram's world. This was simply unimaginable.    

Gu Changsheng's brows sank, and he looked very displeased. He berated, "All members of the Gu family, get out!"    

"Yes, Family Head."    

"Yes, Patriarch."    

The Gu Family disciples did not dare to say anything else. They quickly stood up and left the secret chamber.    

As a result, only Gu Changsheng, the Purple Gold Marquis, and Chen Xiao were left in the huge secret room.    

For a moment, both of them looked at him, feeling as if they were being targeted by everyone.    

Chen Xiao took a deep breath and stabilized his mind. He did not panic, but looked at the Purple Gold Marquis and even received an affirmative response from him.    

In this way, he immediately felt confident that nothing would happen.    

"You're Chen Xiao?" At this time, Gu Changsheng spoke, his eyes filled with malicious intent as he stared at Chen Xiao.    

His eyes were filled with complicated emotions, confusion, and a hint of hidden killing intent.    

Obviously, this brat called Chen Xiao in front of him knew a lot of secrets about Mountain and River World, and this was something Gu Changsheng did not want outsiders to know.
