Chapter 27 Liu Yuan Cut in Half at the Waist? A Chance Encounter with Ling Luochen!
After leaving the solemn and majestic sect hall, Liu Yuan and Long Aotian did not linger in the sect for long.
They moved swiftly and quickly found Chen Lu, Vina, Gu Tong, Wang Yanfeng, and Mu Xue, who were already fully prepared and ready to go, at the edge of the training ground.
"Set off!"
Without much small talk, after confirming the details of their mission to eliminate the evil spirit masters in Yaro City, the group of seven immediately set off, heading straight for the western part of the Heavenly Soul Empire.
Three days flew by in the midst of their journey, and the seven-person team, thanks to their formidable Soul Master physiques, finally arrived near Yaro City on the third day.
As elites of the Body Sect, they quickly located the hiding place of their mission target by gathering information along the way—a dark and dense forest on the east side of Yaro City, where the evil soul masters' encampment was hidden deep within the forest.
Before even entering the dense forest, Long Aotian began to calmly arrange his troops.
This seven-person team has unique configurations, but there are many control-type Soul Masters: Vina, Gu Tong, and Mu Xue all belong to the mental control type of Martial Soul.
Vina, possessing the second spirit, Snow Lotus, can also serve as a healing-type spirit master. However, in general, these three are the core support members of the team and are absolutely the ones who need to be prioritized for protection.
The front-line defense and attack were shared by Long Aotian, Chen Lu, and Wang Yanfeng.
Long Aotian possesses a formidable defensive ability thanks to his skin's martial spirit, placing him somewhere between strong offense and defense.
Chen Lu is an agility-based attacker, while Wang Yanfeng is a pure power attacker.
Liu Yuan is the most versatile member of the team. His double pupil martial soul can attack and defend, can be used at long range or close range, and can even act as a healer when necessary, making him a perfect "free agent" in the team.
The strategy is set: Vina, Gu Tong, and Mu Xue will be positioned in the center to heal teammates and control opponents;
Long Aotian, Chen Lu, and Wang Yanfeng guarded the perimeter from three directions to protect the core members.
As for Liu Yuan, he was free to maneuver according to the situation on the battlefield.
The seven men sneaked into the dense forest like ghosts and quickly found the enemy.
There were six evil soul masters ahead, their bodies shrouded in gray-black evil energy. Their cultivation levels were all at the level of level 20 Great Soul Masters, with the soul power fluctuations of one of the leaders vaguely reaching around level 27.
Liu Yuan hid high up, his deep double pupils turning an intense crimson in an instant.
He targeted a cultist who was facing away from them and completely unprepared, and launched the first attack.
laugh--!!!
Without any warning, two crimson beams, as red as blood, burst forth from Liu Yuan's eyes. His first soul skill, "Mental Ray," exploded, burning a large hole in the back of the evil soul master and instantly killing him.
"Enemy attack!"
The sudden turn of events left the remaining five evil spirit masters both shocked and furious.
This group of evil spirit masters were all offensive types. After discovering they had been ambushed, they roared angrily and charged towards Liu Yuan and the others' hiding place, launching a frenzied attack.
"Push it up!"
Faced with the frenzied counterattack of the five evil soul masters, Wang Yanfeng, Chen Lu, and Long Aotian did not hesitate at all.
The spirit rings rose from beneath his feet, instantly propelling him forward and holding back the enemies charging at the forefront.
"First Soul Skill, Demonic Ape Transformation!"
"Third Soul Skill, Dark Gold Power!"
Long Aotian's bronze skin gleamed with a cold metallic luster, like an insurmountable shield.
Immediately afterwards, Mu Xue, Vina, and Gu Tong, who were in the center of the group, also made their move.
Vina's eyes brightened slightly, and her brain martial soul began to control and calculate the entire field;
Gu Tong's spiritual eyes locked onto the enemy's movement trajectory, continuously sending out mental interference.
Mu Xue then unleashed her powerful wind and snow control abilities, continuously controlling the actions of the remaining evil soul masters.
Taking advantage of the momentary lapse in concentration caused by the mental interference, Long Aotian unleashed a thunderous punch, sending one of the evil soul masters flying backward.
However, these evil spirit masters were, after all, ruthless criminals who lived on the edge of death.
They quickly realized that Long Aotian was a tough opponent. The level 27 leader let out a sharp whistle, and the two evil soul masters twisted their bodies strangely, forming a formation to entangle Long Aotian.
The abilities of these two evil soul masters were extremely unpredictable. Their movements seemed to anticipate Long Aotian's thoughts, and they were able to dodge perfectly just as Long Aotian's heavy blows were about to land.
This slippery fighting style left Long Aotian feeling powerless and unable to use his strength, leaving him stuck in place.
Meanwhile, Wang Yanfeng and Chen Lu were also locked in a fierce battle.
Although Chen Lu was fast, his speed was limited by the complex environment of the dense forest.
Wang Yanfeng's aggressive attacks were at a disadvantage in one-on-one combat against the corrosive soul power of the evil soul master, and both of them were held back by their opponents.
The situation became delicate at that moment.
Seeing the front line of defense breached, the remaining evil soul master let out a cruel shriek. His figure flashed across the battlefield like a streak of black light, rushing directly towards Vina and the others who were protected in the center, intending to take care of these vulnerable control-type soul masters first.
"Die!" The evil spirit master's pale claws were shrouded in a ghastly green mist, and he was less than three meters away from Vina.
At this critical moment, Liu Yuan, who had been hovering on the edge of the battlefield, made his move once again.
laugh--!!!
Another incredibly precise laser eye strike!
The crimson light instantly traversed space, piercing through the brow of the evil spirit master just a second before he could touch Vina.
Bang!
The evil spirit master's corpse crashed to the ground due to inertia, kicking up a cloud of dust.
The remaining evil spirit masters were completely shocked by what they saw. They looked in horror at the boy with double pupils who was appearing and disappearing among the treetops, realizing that Liu Yuan was the most terrifying trouble in the group.
"Damn it, we should have dealt with this first..."
But at this point, they no longer had any more manpower available.
"You have no chance." Liu Yuan's expression was cold and stern, his double pupils overlapping and swirling within them.
He moved with lightning speed, seizing the moment when Wang Yanfeng was fighting the enemy, and his two laser eyes shot out instantly, swiftly killing the two evil soul masters who were entangled with Wang Yanfeng and Chen Lu.
Immediately afterwards, he focused his attention on the two elusive enemies who were entangled with Long Aotian.
With the double pupils' ability to "see through illusions," the opponent's supposedly ingenious evasive maneuvers became full of flaws.
Liu Yuan pinpointed the point where their movements intersected, and a beam of light swept across, instantly robbing them of their lives.
In a short while, Liu Yuan easily and completely wiped out this group of evil soul masters who were wreaking havoc in Yaro City.
The battle ended, and the forest returned to its deathly silence.
"Phew... Senior Brother Liu Yuan, thanks to you." Chen Lu put away his martial spirit and patted his chest with lingering fear.
Long Aotian also withdrew his metal transformation ability and nodded to Liu Yuan.
His teammates gathered around, expressing their deep emotions.
In that thrilling battle, Liu Yuan played a crucial role, not only as a heavy gunner carrying out pinpoint eliminations, but also saving the day multiple times at critical moments.
"Everyone deserves credit," Liu Yuan said calmly, the red light in his eyes fading.
"We are a team. Without my senior brother's restraint and Vina's control, I wouldn't have been able to succeed so easily."
Just as everyone's tense nerves began to relax and they were about to leave the blood-soaked forest, a sudden change occurred!
A terrifying aura suddenly swept across from above the distant forest.
The sheer power of that aura caused the martial spirits of everyone present to tremble involuntarily.
"Get out of the way! Don't block my way!"
A violent roar rang out, and a five-ring evil soul master with jet-black wings on his back and five terrifying soul rings of yellow, yellow, purple, purple, and black flashing around him was seen flying past in a blur.
This evil spirit master was clearly in a state of agitation. His target was not Liu Yuan and his group, but Vina happened to be blocking his path as he flew low through the air due to her position.
Faced with this sudden appearance of a five-ring powerhouse, Vina had no time to react and could only stare blankly as the claws wrapped in black soul power rapidly enlarged in her pupils.
"careful!"
Liu Yuan's speed exploded to its limit at that moment.
He exerted his strength and shoved Vina away.
boom--!!!
The Five Rings Evil Soul Master's casually swung attack struck Liu Yuan heavily.
The power of a Soul King is a devastating disaster for Liu Yuan, who is currently only level 27.
Under that terrifying energy cutting, Liu Yuan's body was instantly sliced in two by the black light blade!
"Liu Yuan!!!"
"Senior brother!!!"
The screams of Long Aotian, Vina, and the others almost tore through the dense forest.
However, even though his body was cut in half at the waist, the crimson light in Liu Yuan's double pupils burst out with unprecedented ferocity before it dissipated!
"snort!"
The instant his body severed, his laser eyes erupted once more, the scarlet beam striking the right wing of the fifth-ring evil soul master.
"ah--!"
The Five Rings Evil Soul Master let out a miserable scream as his wings were pierced directly by Liu Yuan's attack, and the smell of burning rose up.
Losing his balance, he let out an angry roar and crashed heavily to the ground, looking utterly disheveled.
He struggled to his feet, his gaze towards Liu Yuan's mangled body filled with a violent killing intent: "You troublesome bastards! I'm going to kill you all!"
But just as he was about to strike again, the temperature around him plummeted, and the entire dense forest seemed to plunge into winter in an instant.
"You're the one who's going to be killed."
A voice as cold as ice rang out.
A masked girl with a graceful figure, holding an ice staff, suddenly appeared.
Her spirit rings flickered beneath her feet, and with a casual wave of her ice staff, the evil spirit master was instantly frozen into an ice sculpture.
With a swift strike of her ice staff, the girl shattered the evil spirit master into countless fragments.
Turning his gaze to the boy who had been unexpectedly killed by the evil spirit master, Ling Luochen's face beneath the mask showed a hint of self-reproach.
"It's a pity that it caused unnecessary casualties. If only I could have caught up with this evil soul master sooner and killed him."
What shocked her was...
The next moment, Liu Yuan, who had been cut in half at the waist, began to slowly regenerate...
