Opening the doors to the Shadow Palace built by the ninja soldiers, the interior was eerily quiet, with the same layout as the Ghost Kingdom.
Nine seats plus a throne.
Of the nine seats, only three chairs on the throne have mask patterns printed on them, and their locations are clearly defined.
"This is not bad."
Xu Xin nodded in satisfaction. It was quite in line with his own ideas; it could be considered a unique grand hall of the Ghost Kingdom.
"Xiao Xu Xin, shouldn't we have nine elders?"
Liu Erlong asked curiously; she had been curious about this place since it was built.
She had a guess, especially when she saw the mask pattern on the seat.
The three masks were exactly Xu Xin's Tara mask, Ah Yin's Nija mask, and Dugu Bo's Lazo mask.
Currently, only three seats have them; the other seven haven't been engraved yet, obviously because it's not easy to carve ninja soldiers on them.
"That's right, nine of them. Then you'll be the Third Elder, how impressive!"
Xu Xin joked.
"Alright, let's go, let's go quickly. Once you have the mask, I'll have those ninja soldiers carve it on."
Liu Erlong said excitedly, as she had been eyeing this mask for a long time.
"Don't rush, Sister Erlong. Do you know what kind of soul beasts have both mental and dark attributes?"
Xu Xin looked at Liu Erlong and asked.
Liu Erlong shook his head repeatedly, "Don't ask me who I am, where I am, or what I'm supposed to do..."
Xu Xin was ashamed; this little girl knew nothing.
With a snap of his fingers, the ninja soldier appeared before the two: "Go ask the Second Elder if he has the soul beast I just mentioned."
The ninja soldiers disappeared quickly after receiving the order.
Their reappearance was a result of news: the One-Eyed Ghost Bat!
"The One-Eyed Ghost Bat!"
"Alright, you guys go ahead and search. If you find any clues, report back immediately."
Xu Xin spoke slowly, and soon, a large group of ninja soldiers disappeared into the darkness, rushing headlong into the Sunset Forest.
"Let's go, Sister Erlong!"
Xu Xin spoke up.
After acquiring ninja soldiers, Xu Xin realized how wonderful it was to have someone to serve you.
Without further ado, the two headed straight into the Sunset Forest, with several ninja soldiers secretly protecting them.
Sunset Forest was quite large, and the two wandered around in it for a long time.
"Xu Xin, why do you want a spirit-type soul beast?"
Liu Erlong asked, puzzled, She knew that Xu Xin's martial soul was based on the dark attribute.
But why is it the mental attribute?
A mask? Could it be that with the enhancement of mental attributes, it can come to life?
"It's a secret."
"Sister Erlong, you'll find out then."
Let's not talk about the Ghost Shadow Kingdom for now; we'll give Liu Erlong a surprise when the time comes.
Although Ah Yin and Dugu Bo already knew.
"Alright then," Liu Erlong said listlessly.
"By the way, Sister Erlong, do you really not want to go home?" Xu Xin suddenly asked.
"No, I don't want to at all!"
"What, is the Palace Master trying to kick me, the Third Elder, out?"
Liu Erlong's tone changed noticeably, becoming somewhat resentful.
Xu Xin's heart tightened. He was so stupid; why did he have to bring this up out of the blue...
Holding Liu Erlong's hand, Xu Xin slowly said, "How could that be? You are my Third Elder. No one would let you go."
"From now on, if you want to go home, you'll have to let me know. If I don't allow it, you can't leave!!"
Xu Xin said seriously, "Let's calm this girl down first."
"That's more like it!" Liu Erlong snorted.
Now Xu Xin is about the same height as Liu Erlong, so when they walk together, they don't look out of place at all, and they don't look like siblings anymore.
Just as the two were about to say something more, the ninja soldier suddenly appeared.
"Found it?"
Xu Xin was taken aback; this efficiency was a bit too fast.
"How did you find it?" Xu Xin asked.
The ninja soldiers muttered to themselves for a long time. Xu Xin understood them, but Liu Erlong didn't understand a single word.
"Xu Xin, what did he say...?" Liu Erlong was a little confused.
"Oh, he said they found it based on the dark attributes of the one-eyed ghost bat."
"They are inherently associated with darkness, and are very sensitive to this. Based on this, they discovered it very quickly."
Xu Xin gave an explanation.
It's normal that Liu Erlong doesn't understand because she doesn't have a mask; in fact, that's an advantage.
From now on, only the elders of the Shadow Palace will understand what the ninja soldiers say.
"Okay, okay, let's go quickly!" Liu Erlong couldn't wait any longer.
The ninja soldier was very fast and soon led the two to the location of the one-eyed ghost bat.
The one-eyed ghost bat hung upside down on a dark tree, as if it were resting.
Noticing that someone was watching it, the lone eye on its head lit up and stared straight at the two people in front of it.
"4,500 years!"
Xu Xin took a deep breath, unsure if he could absorb it now, considering he was only at the third level.
The One-Eyed Ghost Bat has one eye and two wings, with white stripes at the tips of its wings, each stripe representing a thousand years.
Ten thousand years later, the white stripes will turn crimson, and one crimson stripe represents ten thousand years.
The one-eyed ghost bat has four and a half white stripes on the tip of its wing, which clearly indicates that it is 4,500 years old.
"Xu Xin, are you sure you can absorb this head bat? I feel it's quite old, and you're only at the third ring now."
"Wouldn't that be a bit too much?"
Liu Erlong asked with some concern, "Although this bat is very suitable, it's a bit too old."
Xu Xin shook his head: "It's alright. My physique has been tempered by ice and fire, and my mental strength has also improved because of consuming the immortal herb. I can give it a try."
"If it doesn't work, Sister Erlong, you can interrupt me again, it won't hurt."
Xu Xin slowly opened his mouth and said, "How can one become a strong person without experiencing some pain?"
"Okay, you wait here, I'll go catch it!"
Liu Erlong didn't waste any words. A mere 4,500-year-old soul beast couldn't withstand a punch from her.
As she spoke, Liu Erlong's martial spirit manifested, flames raging across her body: "First Soul Skill: Rising Dragon Fist!" (Made up by me. Original does not have any information)
Flames covered Liu Erlong's fists as the three-headed Fiery Dragon roared out, washing over the one-eyed Ghost Bat.
With ninja soldiers providing cover, the one-eyed ghost bat had no chance of escaping.
It was subdued by Liu Erlong in no time, but it didn't die.
Without the slightest hesitation, Xu Xin took out a dagger and killed the bat.
After killing them, he remembered a rumor he had heard in his previous life: the stronger the resentment of a soul beast before it dies, the more likely it is to drop its soul ring...
I don't know if it's true or false!
I should have tried it.
However, after thinking about it, Xu Xin decided to give up. He decided to let it go, since he wasn't that heartless.
Of course, torturing Tang San and his father is a separate matter; they were truly inhuman.
That naturally requires being ruthless.
