Chapter 210: Soul Capturing, Arrival at Black Horn Domain!

A soul body! This red, illusory human figure was indeed a soul body, and moreover, one that was being captured by the Soul Hall.

After discerning the situation in the black fog, Gu He had a thought and disappeared from his spot, unnoticed.

...

At this moment, in the nearby black fog, piercing screams could be heard.

"Who are you exactly?"

"Why are you hunting me? I don't seem to have any enmity with you!"

A red soul body was shaking wildly in the fierce wind, facing the darkness with a twisted and fearful expression on its face.

"Jie Jie"

In the darkness, a terrifying laughter suddenly echoed, followed by a black chain shooting out like a black snake, swiftly entwining the red soul body.

"Sizzling."

The moment the energy chain, seemingly made of a very strange energy, touched the red soul body, plumes of white smoke seeped out from the latter, and agonizing screams filled the air.

"Ah!"

"Please, let me go!"

"I will give you anything you want!"

"Ah... No, please!"

However, no matter how much it struggled, even summoning a kind of red flame, it was still no match for the black chain. The soul body could only watch helplessly as its soul weakened and was finally enveloped in a black light emitted by the chain.

"Jie Jie, no matter how glorious and powerful you were in life, once you become a soul body, you are a target for the 'Soul Hall'."

Amidst a harsh, raspy laughter, two black figures gradually became visible.

One of them, looking at the soul pouch that had just captured the red soul body, wore a smug smile.

"Soul Five, there's a group of people over there. Should we take them too?"

The other black figure, looking towards Ma Yicheng's caravan, said sinisterly.

"Just ants, what's the use of capturing them? It's a waste of time."

The figure named Soul Five scoffed disdainfully, clearly underestimating Ma Yicheng and the others.

"That's true, let's move on." The other black figure nodded in agreement.

As they prepared to leave, a clear shout suddenly rang out beside their ears: "Soul Capturing!"

Startled, the two figures felt a chill in their hearts, but before they could react, they found themselves enveloped by a powerful devouring force.

"What is this?"

"Ah!"

In their horror, their bodies uncontrollably flew in one direction.

Within a patch of black fog, Gu He was hidden there, his palm extending with a dim light emerging, forming a black vortex. A strong devouring force surged forth.

The two black figures, uncontrollable, drifted towards Gu He's palm, utterly powerless to resist.

As the two soul bodies entered the dim vortex in Gu He's palm, the devouring force gradually dissipated, and the dim light in his palm transformed into two black beads.

Through the black beads, one could clearly see the two soul bodies inside, shouting and screaming in terror. Upon seeing Gu He, they became even more furious, seemingly uttering threats, their expressions twisted.

But strangely, no sound came out.

It was as if the soul bodies had entered a closed space, cut off from the outside world.

"Humph, you like to hook people's souls so much, this time I'll let you taste this flavor yourself."

Looking at the two soul bodies in the black beads, Gu He smiled coldly, then glanced at Ma Yicheng's caravan and disappeared into the darkness.

...

Moments later, as Gu He approached the caravan, he saw Ma Yicheng's relieved chubby face.

"Mr. Di Jia, are you alright? I was worried sick when I couldn't find you."

Ma Yicheng hurried over, sighing with relief.

"It's nothing, I was just blown away a bit."

Seeing the joy on Ma Yicheng's face, Gu He smiled and shook his head. Although this fat man was anxious because of his strength, at least he was more normal than some in the Black Horn Domain.

"Not all in the Black Horn Domain are utterly ruthless people."

"Blown away? Mr. Di Jia is really lucky. If it were someone else, they would surely get lost in the plains."

Hearing this, Ma Yicheng smiled with some relief: "Mr. Di Jia, please get into the carriage. I'll tidy up the scattered goods and then we'll continue on our way."

Nodding, Gu He looked at the caravan starting to organize things and didn't say anything more, re-entering the carriage and sitting cross-legged.

Then, Gu He took out the two black beads he had just obtained and looked at the still raging soul bodies inside, a chill appearing at the corner of his mouth.

"Soul Devouring Technique!"

With a thought, a powerful devouring force suddenly surged into his palm, directly bypassing the black beads and entering inside, sweeping towards the two soul bodies.

In an instant, the originally resentful soul bodies showed expressions of agony, covering their heads with their hands and screaming miserably.

Unfortunately, with the black beads, their screams couldn't be heard.

Moments later, the two soul bodies, along with the black beads, turned into a pure soul force, ruthlessly devoured by Gu He.

As this soul force was devoured by Gu He, a large amount of information surged into his mind, the memories of the two soul bodies.

"Soul Five, Soul Nine, Soul Hall officers..."

After a while, Gu He slowly opened his eyes, a flash of enlightenment in his pupils.

At this moment, he had fully absorbed the memories of the two, learning their identities.

The strengths of these two individuals, one at the level of a Three-Star Dou Emperor and the other at the level of a One-Star Dou Emperor, classified them as junior officers of the Soul Hall.

In the hierarchy of the Soul Hall, officers were ranked just below the Protectors.

However, with their level of power, they were merely the lowest, entry-level officers in the Soul Hall.

Just like the division of Protectors, above the junior officers were the intermediate officers and the senior officers.

And the strength of the senior officers had already reached the level of a Nine-Star Dou Emperor.

After devouring the souls of the two, Gu He gained a clearer impression of the situation in the Black Horn Domain from their memories.

"I didn't expect the Black Horn Domain to be darker than I imagined."

"It seems I need to bring a ray of light to this dark and chaotic region."

Looking out through the carriage window, Gu He gazed in the direction of the Black Horn Domain.

His purpose this time was to enter the Jia Nan Academy.

The Jia Nan Academy was filled with talents, and he should be able to recruit a few genius disciples on this trip.

Moreover, the Jia Nan Academy also had the Fallen Heart Flame he needed.

Originally, Gu He didn't plan to stay in the Black Horn Domain.

However, after reading the memories of these two Soul Hall officers, a new idea suddenly emerged in Gu He's mind.

Purge!

He planned to sweep through the chaotic and dark Black Horn Domain with his invincible power.

He intended to kill all the ruthless strongmen and raid the treasures of the major forces.

Of course, the treasures were not a big concern.

What Gu He wanted to do was to bring a glimmer of hope to the despairing darkness of the Black Horn Domain, to give them a light of hope.

At this moment, Gu He seemed to transform into a giant of light, radiating the glow of justice.

...

Since that black storm, Ma Yicheng's caravan hadn't encountered any more trouble.

By noon the next day, at the edge of the monotonous black plain, lush greenery finally began to appear. The experienced guards couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief at the sight.

Once they left the great plains, it would be much safer. After all, most of the cities nowadays were dominated by powerful forces, and as long as enough money was paid to these forces, one wouldn't end up with a tragic fate of being robbed and massacred. These forces wouldn't be foolish enough to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs.

Of course, nothing was absolute; otherwise, the Black Horn Domain wouldn't live up to its reputation as the most chaotic region.

Inside the carriage, Gu He opened the curtain and looked at the caravan gradually leaving the black plain, his expression calm.

"Hehe, it's good this time, we didn't encounter those brutal black bandits, and my goods are safe. There were no casualties, which means I can save a lot on compensation."

Ma Yicheng's chubby face showed a relieved smile. Transporting goods in the Black Domain Plains was almost like hanging one's head on the belt, a stroke of bad luck could mean death. After all, making money in the Black Horn Domain was not easy.

"By the way, Mr. Di Jia, here is your compensation. Although it's not worthy of your stature."

Ma Yicheng took out a bag of gold coins from his bosom and handed it to Gu He with a bitter smile.

"Without Mr. Ma's guidance, I might have wandered in the Black Domain Plains for another ten days. This money is more than enough."

Gu He didn't pretentiously refuse the compensation, took the gold coins, and weighed them. The amount seemed to be around five thousand gold coins.

"Thank you, Mr. Di Jia."

Ma Yicheng thanked him and handed over a detailed map, whispering, "I think, for someone new to the Black Horn Domain, this is the most valuable thing."

Gu He's eyes narrowed slightly, and he nodded slowly without refusing.

In fact, after devouring the memories of the two Soul Hall officers, Gu He was already very clear about the situation in the Black Horn Domain and no longer needed this map.

But he didn't refuse the kind gesture.

"Hehe, Mr. Di Jia, although you are strong, you must be careful in the Black Horn Domain. It's best not to let people easily see that you are a newcomer, or it will attract a lot of unnecessary trouble," Ma Yicheng said with a light laugh.

"I'll take your advice."

Gu He smiled and nodded.
