Chapter 136 Assault!
Shrek City, as one of the most important cities on the continent, still had a considerable number of people on its streets even at this time.
Pedestrians coming and going, carriages shuttling back and forth, and street vendors who haven't yet packed up their stalls all intertwine to create a lively scene of everyday life.
Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong walked side by side, blending into the crowd.
As he walked... Huo Yuhao suddenly stopped.
Wang Dong also stopped, turned around, and saw his suddenly serious expression, his heart tightening slightly.
"What's wrong?"
Huo Yuhao did not answer immediately.
With his current mental strength, his perception is no weaker than that of a Soul Saint.
Just a moment ago, he keenly caught a few faint glances.
Those gazes were well hidden in the crowd, and most people wouldn't notice them at all.
But in his perception, it was as clear as a light in the darkness.
"We're being watched."
Huo Yuhao spoke in a low voice, his tone calm but with a hint of solemnity.
As soon as he finished speaking, the mental detection was instantly activated and shared with Wang Dong.
With the help of Huo Yuhao's mental detection, Wang Dong quickly discovered the people around him who had been "marked".
They were scattered among the crowd, some pretending to be strolling, some leaning against the wall, and some sitting at roadside tea stalls drinking tea.
But their gazes always seemed to fall subtly on him and Huo Yuhao.
Wang Dong opened his eyes, his face darkening.
His voice was low: "There are nine people in total, all of whom are at least Soul King level. It seems they are not here with good intentions."
Huo Yuhao merely snorted coldly, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes.
"Since you can no longer hide your killing intent, then don't blame me for striking first."
Even though he was surrounded by enemies and they outnumbered him, Huo Yuhao felt no tension whatsoever.
He told Wang Dong, "Just keep moving forward normally and don't give yourself away."
Wang Dong nodded without asking any further questions.
The two continued walking forward, their expressions unchanged, as if they hadn't noticed anything.
After walking a few hundred meters, the number of people around gradually decreased.
The streets became empty, and the old buildings on both sides cast deep shadows, making it a good place to get things done.
In that very instant... under the perfect concealment of the simulated soul skill, Huo Yuhao's fourth soul ring had quietly lit up.
The dark light flowed silently across the soul ring.
The Realm of All Thoughts Returning to Nothingness – Activated!
The Realm of Returning to Nothingness, as a mental domain, is also difficult for ordinary people to perceive.
The invisible wave spread out silently, enveloping everything around it.
The enemies lurking in the shadows remained quietly in their positions, completely unaware of anything amiss.
Huo Yuhao, meanwhile, had already begun to activate the power of his domain, starting to draw away their desire to attack.
This is one of the fundamental abilities of Wan Nian Gui Xu. That invisible force permeates the spiritual sea of everyone, silently influencing their emotions and weakening their killing intent.
Huo Yuhao could clearly feel that the killing intent that had been hidden was rapidly diminishing.
A sense of weariness and apathy gradually arose in those people's hearts, as if they had lost interest in the prey before them.
But this is not the true power of the Realm of Returning to Nothingness.
At the same time, he was also detaching these people's thoughts, bit by bit, thread by thread, quietly stripping away their vigilance, judgment, reactions... these things that constitute "combat instinct" from their sea of minds.
If someone were to observe closely at this moment, they would see that the eyes of those people are gradually becoming vacant.
His once sharp eyes were now clouded with mist.
The body, which had been tense, gradually relaxed.
They didn't even realize that they were losing control of their own thoughts.
Huo Yuhao then stretched out his hands, and two level-five soul-guided ray guns appeared out of thin air in his hands.
The cold, metallic texture pressed against my palm, and my soul power surged into it instantly, fully charging me.
Under the influence of mental detection, everything about each enemy was clearly presented in his mind.
Having decided to take action, he naturally wouldn't hold back.
Raise your hand... activate!
Rays of soul guidance shot out from the muzzle of the gun, as fast as lightning!
Those rays struck the target precisely between the eyebrows, piercing through the skull and destroying life.
Without screams, without struggles, and without even realizing that death was approaching, those people simply collapsed limply to the ground.
In the blink of an eye, four of the nine enemies had fallen.
"Watch out! Something's wrong!"
An old voice suddenly rang out, breaking the eerie silence.
That was an old man hidden at the very back, and he was also the one with the highest soul power among these nine people. He was a... Soul Saint!
His eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he actually broke free from the realm of "All Thoughts Return to Nothingness"!
With his roar, two more figures suddenly regained consciousness.
Those were two Soul Emperors who, after being reminded by a Soul Saint, forcibly broke free from the domain's control.
Those were two Soul Emperors who, after being reminded by a Soul Saint, forcibly broke free from the domain's control.
The remaining two also perished at Huo Yuhao's hands in the blink of an eye.
Of the nine people, six have already left.
This Soul Saint is a Soul Master with a Flying Martial Soul.
At this moment, a pair of blue wings flapped behind him, and he floated in mid-air.
The aura of a Soul Saint surged forth without reservation!
Those around panicked upon seeing this.
It's rare to see someone dare to make a move in Shrek City.
Those pedestrians who were watching the commotion from a distance scattered and fled, fearing they would be caught in the crossfire.
The street erupted into chaos, filled with screams, footsteps, and the sounds of collisions.
The Soul Saint looked down at Huo Yuhao, his face so sinister it seemed to drip water.
His voice was cold and sinister: "Such a young age, yet so ruthless!"
Huo Yuhao raised his head and met the murderous gaze.
On that handsome face, there was not a trace of fear, only a calm indifference.
"I never show mercy to my enemies."
The Soul Saint snorted coldly, refusing to waste any more words, and directly ordered: "Go all out and kill this brat!"
The two Soul Emperors below exchanged a glance, both feeling somewhat uneasy.
Those Soul King level companions just now died in a very strange way.
Silently, without warning, without even a struggle, they fell down one by one.
Although they were more skilled, they were still a little uneasy in the face of such unknown methods.
But since their leader had already given the order, they naturally dared not disobey.
The two took a deep breath, their soul power surged, and they rushed towards Huo Yuhao!
Huo Yuhao stood still, motionless.
The Realm of All Thoughts Returning to Nothingness has been activated once again!
That invisible force silently enveloped them. Although the Soul Emperor's mental strength was not weak, it still could not resist the extraction of their will from the domain.
Their forward speed has noticeably decreased.
A hint of disorientation gradually appeared in those eyes.
Just then... Huo Yuhao's first soul skill, Soul Whip, was suddenly activated!
An invisible spiritual force, like a long whip, lashed fiercely across the spiritual sea of the two!
"ah!!"
The two figures, who had been rushing forward, came to a complete stop. They clutched their heads with their hands and let out two piercing cries of pain.
The pain penetrated deep into their souls, almost robbing them of their ability to think.
Huo Yuhao then launched an enhanced version of his mental attack!
Two invisible mental shocks, like two giant hammers, slammed heavily into the mental seas of the two Soul Emperors!
Their eyes widened suddenly, and then... the two of them fell straight backward.
"Bang! Bang!"
Two muffled thuds followed as two bodies crashed heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.
