Chapter 29 Soul-Catching Crow

"This crow with black feathers and blue eyes should be a soul-sucking crow. It parasitizes other spirit beasts, feeds on the host's soul, and is good at soul attack." Bi Yong said.

"Soul-sucking crow? I've never heard of the name of a strange beast." Xu Yang said to himself.

The soul-sucking crow hovering in the air, its body blurred, and it actually split into four identical black crows.

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!" Four black shadows attacked the four people like four black ghosts.

"Soul-splitting technique! This spirit crow actually has such a talent, everyone should be careful!"

The four people stood back to back, staring at the four black crows in the air.

The blue light flashed in the eyes of the soul-sucking crow, and circles of blue ripples spread out, quickly covering a large area of ​​space. Suddenly, the scenery in front of the four people changed drastically, and the ground under their feet disappeared, replaced by a vast expanse of water.

Xu Yang quickly took out the compass and looked closely. The needle on the compass was spinning rapidly, and it seemed that it could not stop.

"Even the compass is ineffective."

"This is a water illusion, everyone be careful." Zhu Liuqing said.

The originally black bodies of the four soul-catching crows quickly turned into transparent water and disappeared from the four people's sight.

The calm water surface began to churn, and the huge body of water climbed upwards, and in a blink of an eye it turned into a huge transparent water ball that trapped the four people in the center. The transparent figures of the four soul-catching crows like ice cubes were vaguely visible on the surface of the water body, and then disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Xu Yang used one palm to perform the power, and the Nether Fire Art urged a ball of fire to burst out and bombard the water body. The moment the fireball and the water body came into contact, there was only a slight fluctuation, and the fireball actually sank into the water body and disappeared.

The next moment, there was a violent fluctuation on the other side of the water body, and a big fireball whizzed out of it, which was clearly the fireball Xu Yang had just shot.

Xu Yang hurriedly pointed with one hand and said softly: "Disperse!" The big fireball responded and turned into sparks all over the sky and disappeared. Controlling the fireball out of thin air to disperse it consumes several times more mana than sending it out.

Seeing this, Zhu Liuqing raised the Fenglin knife in his hand and chopped it towards the water. There was another wave, and the fierce knife force was like a drop in the ocean.

The four stood back to back, not daring to act rashly.

"We are in an illusion, and the directions of various attacks have been confused. Everyone should not attack easily. Wait for me to use my means to find its body." Bi Yong finished speaking and took out a small white porcelain jar about an inch in size. A silver talisman was sealed at the mouth of the small jar.

Bi Yong peeled off the talisman with one hand and opened the porcelain jar. A small red snake about a foot long crawled out of the porcelain jar.

"My fire breath spirit snake is very sensitive to the spiritual power fluctuations of spirit beasts, and can track the location of its body within a certain distance."

The little snake coiled in his palm, spitting out its core continuously. After a moment, its head stared in one direction, and a trace of fire breath spurted out of its nostrils.

"The real body should be hiding there, let's attack together."

The four people launched the attack together.

With a splash, a big hole was blasted out of the water. The void shook, the surrounding waters disappeared, and the four people returned to reality.

The real body of the Soul-Snatching Crow was hovering above the four people's heads.

"This guy is entangled, it seems that it doesn't want us to escape. Maybe we killed its host, and it wants revenge. Or it wants to turn us into its host." Bi Zhi said half seriously and half jokingly.

The Soul-Snatching Crow suddenly spread its wings and flew in one direction, disappearing in a blink of an eye.

Looking at the sky where the Soul-Snatching Crow disappeared, the four people were still frightened.

The four decided to deal with the body of the Black Wind Peacock first.

Bi Zhi took out the peacock gall from its body and put it away, and the other parts were put into the storage bag by Xu Yang.

"This time, I was able to successfully obtain the peacock gall, thanks to the help of the two of you. I'm really sorry that Sister Zhu was injured." Bi Yong said.

"Just a minor injury."

"I didn't expect that there would be a strange bird like the Soul-Sucking Crow in this ghost howling land. If you two don't mind, why don't the four of us team up to explore together next time." Bi Yong suggested.

"Junior Sister Zhu was injured. We would be more than happy to team up with the two senior brothers." Xu Yang said.

Zhu Liuqing beside him also nodded slightly.

The four of them continued to move forward together.

Perhaps because the four of them were originally more powerful than the two of them, they did not encounter any spirit beasts afterwards, and successfully obtained some spirit herbs.

...

One day later, the four of them came to a small square.

A large teleportation array stood in the center of the square. The teleportation array was surrounded by a layer of light blue defensive light curtain.

In addition to the four people, sporadic disciples of the Wood Spirit Academy could be seen entering and leaving the teleportation array.

"This is the entrance to the middle layer of the Ghost Howling Land. Now, there are still ten days before the Ghost Howling Land Trial is closed. In the middle layer of the Ghost Howling Land, there is a spiritual herb called "Snow Grass" that we want to pick this time. Are you two willing to go together, or you two can return first." Bi Yong suggested.

Xu Yang almost rejected the proposal of the Bi brothers without thinking.

Before entering the Ghost Howling Land, Dean Xiao had already stated that outer disciples should not easily enter the middle layer. The experience in the outer layer made him instinctively feel that the danger in the middle layer was not something he and Zhu Liuqing could handle.

Before Xu Yang could speak, Zhu Liuqing said: "Since we are here, we might as well go and take a look."

"Junior Sister Zhu, your injuries have not healed yet. Isn't it a bit inappropriate to enter the middle layer like this?" Xu Yang said.

"I'm fine, and I have two senior brothers from the Bi family going with me. This is a rare opportunity."

Seeing Zhu Liuqing's firm words, Xu Yang felt something was wrong.

"Although Zhu Liuqing and I haven't been together for a long time, in the past few days when we entered the Ghost Howl Land together, Xu Yang felt that Zhu Liuqing was not a reckless person. Now that her soul has not been healed, she insists on entering the middle level, which makes people a little puzzled. Could it be that Zhu Liuqing's soul was injured, causing a temporary change in her temperament, affecting her judgment of things. We can't let her take risks alone in this state." Xu Yang thought of this and said firmly: "Okay, let's go together."

The four of them entered the teleportation array together.

The middle level of the Ghost Howl Land.

Half a day later, the four appeared near an underground wind tunnel in a hidden canyon. This wind tunnel has cold air coming out from time to time, and the ice spirit is extremely abundant.

The four carefully searched around the wind tunnel, but they didn't find a single snow grass.

"Has someone been here in advance, or is the snow grass growing inside the wind tunnel?" Bi Yong said puzzledly.

"In that case, let's go into the wind tunnel and take a look." Bi Yong said, taking out a small bottle and pouring out four red bean-sized pills.

"Although the wind in this wind tunnel is not strong, the cold is very strong. I have four warm-up pills here to drive away the cold." As he said, he and Bi Zhi each took one, and handed the other two to Xu Yang and Zhu Liuqing.

"Thank you." Xu Yang took the pill and put it in his mouth, and the pill melted in his mouth. A continuous stream of heat energy slowly spread to the meridians around the body, and most of the cold was removed.

The two brothers of the Bi family were in front, and Xu Yang and the other two were behind. The four entered the wind tunnel.

A thin layer of ice formed on the walls and the ground in the wind tunnel. The four people moved forward cautiously, and their speed slowed down a lot.

Just a short distance into the wind tunnel.

Bi Yong stopped, waved his hand, and said: "Wait! It seems that someone is coming outside the cave."

As soon as the voice fell, a black figure appeared behind the four people.
