"Bad luck, bad luck, bad luck."
The people of Haotian Sect felt that they were unlucky, but Ghost Douluo felt that he was even more unlucky.
He was an elder of the Spirit Hall, and he was just bidding for a soul bone, and a soul bone that was less than ten thousand years old. He didn't expect that he would be targeted by someone.
It would be fine if he was just being targeted, but the ones targeting him were four Titled Douluo. How could he seek justice?
"Damn it, you poor bastards from the Haotian Sect, you let me escape. I'm not done with you."
Ghost Douluo is good at hiding his tracks and ambushing. His linear speed alone is not outstanding, and it is difficult for him to shake off the pursuit of Tang Xiao and others.
"It would be great if we could get into the mountains. The terrain is complex and it would be easier for me to hide or escape."
Ghost Douluo aimed at the mountain, and after entering the mountain, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he had not yet escaped the pursuit, his hope of escaping successfully increased greatly in this place with complex terrain.
Sure enough, after entering the mountains, the distance that Tang Xiao and the others had narrowed was once again left behind.
Ghost Douluo would occasionally create several ghost clones, while he hid his own aura and continued to flee towards a place with more complicated terrain.
"Why is there such thick fog here in broad daylight?"
Ghost Douluo suddenly stopped and looked at the thick fog in front of him.
He squinted his eyes and looked into the black fog, but he could not see anything clearly. His mental power was blocked by the black fog, and he could not even sense two or three meters in front of him.
Ghost Douluo hesitated.
He could see that this fog was very unusual, definitely not an ordinary cloud, and there might be some danger hidden in it.
He wanted to turn around and change direction, but if he did that, the time he had gained with great difficulty would be wasted again, and he might even be completely caught up by the people from the Haotian Sect.
"Take a gamble."
Ghost Douluo stomped his feet and bravely rushed into the fog.
In his opinion, this place is not too far from Tiandou City, and it is not a soul beast forest. Even if there is any danger, he, a Titled Douluo, is enough to handle it.
Ghost Douluo had only been in Tiandou City for a few days. He didn't know that this was the location of the Soul Palace, and he didn't know that the fog was the Soul Palace's formation, so he rushed in.
After a while, Tang Xiao and his four companions finally caught up.
"Master, why did you stop?"
Tang Xiao arrived first, and the Fourth Elder lagged behind by a lot. As soon as he arrived, he saw Tang Xiao stopped and stopped the Second Elder and the Third Elder.
Tang Xiao frowned.
"The Soul Palace is ahead. This fog is a formation set up by the Soul Palace. If you enter it rashly, you will likely get lost."
Tang Xiao was the only one from the Haotian Sect who had been here once, and this one time alone left a very deep impression on Tang Xiao.
The greatest humiliation he had ever suffered in his life came from here, and he still feels resentful about it.
The fourth elder said:
"Soul Palace? Perfect! Ghost Douluo is courting death. Let's ask the Soul Palace to help capture Ghost Douluo and see how he can escape."
Tang Xiao glanced sideways at the Fourth Elder.
You're so shameless that you even ask the Soul Palace for help? Do you think the Soul Palace is a powerful clan that you can control at will?
After dealing with the Soul Palace once, Tang Xiao understood the Soul Palace's attitude towards doing things. It was not a sect that treated people with kindness, but rather a sect that acted tyrannically and did not give face to anyone.
This reminded Tang Xiao of the Haotian Sect during its heyday. It was truly invincible at that time. But now times have changed and Tang Xiao no longer dares to be as arrogant as before.
"Master, doesn't the Soul Palace even give us the Haotian Sect this little bit of face?" asked the second elder.
Tang Xiao was silent.
In his opinion, the Haotian Sect probably has no face in the Soul Palace.
"Now we can only wait."
"What are you waiting for?" asked the third elder.
"We'll wait and see what the Soul Hall thinks. Ghost is a Spirit Hall member, and there's a high probability of conflict between them. Furthermore, Ghost broke into the Soul Hall's formation without permission, which could very well anger the Soul Hall. Perhaps the Soul Hall will kill Ghost without us even having to do anything."
Tang Xiao had high hopes for this. Compared to following the ghosts and actively asking the Soul Palace for help, this method was safer.
Although it is very passive, at least there is no need to bear any risks.
The current Haotian Sect can no longer afford any risks.
"Then how long do we have to wait?"
The fourth elder was a little annoyed. Their Haotian Sect was the number one sect in the world, but it had suffered repeated setbacks since it came out of seclusion. It really made him feel very frustrated.
"We'll hear the sound of fighting later. Even if the ghosts are not killed, they will definitely be driven out. We have nothing else now but plenty of time. All we have to do is wait." Tang Xiao said with a straight face.
"Ah~"
The three elders looked at each other, and finally let out a long sigh together.
Even Tang Xiao didn't dare to trespass into the Soul Palace, let alone them.
"What the hell is this place? I can't see or feel anything. Am I going to die here?"
Tang Xiao and the others were waiting anxiously, while Ghost Douluo was fleeing in panic.
After entering the fog, he completely lost his sense of direction, and the further he walked, the shorter the distance he could see. Just now, he almost lost all vision.
"Ouch."
Ghost Douluo's feet went weak and he almost fell.
He was a Titled Douluo, but he was almost tripped by a stone. This was unimaginable in the past.
The fog not only affected his sense of direction and perception, but also caused his thinking to deviate.
He felt like he was trapped in a small, dark house, and feelings of loneliness, uneasiness and fear surged into his heart in a short period of time.
It's not that Ghost Douluo hasn't thought of a solution.
He once jumped high, but no matter how high he jumped, he still could not escape the range of the fog.
He also once closed his eyes and rushed madly in one direction, but still got nothing.
He also created many clones, hoping to use them to explore the way, but as soon as the clones left, they disappeared completely in a short while, and he couldn't even feel any movement.
"Is anyone there? Is anyone there?"
The ghostly soul power scattered, trying to dispel the fog.
But no matter how his soul power surged, the fog seemed to be solidified, without the slightest ripple.
Guimei even used demons and monsters to try to blow up the fog, but he couldn't even hear the explosion, let alone blasting a passage. It was as if everything he did was just his fantasy. This feeling was too torturous.
In the Heavenly Palace, Xiao Mu clearly saw Ghost Douluo, who was like a headless fly in the fog-locked maze, through the control core of the Soul Palace Fortress.
"I haven't even looked for you yet, but you came to me on your own. You really are destined to be with my Soul Palace."
"Palace Master, do you wish to subdue this strange-looking individual and take him into the Soul Palace?"
Ye Lingling asked.
In the image presented at the core of the fortress, Ghost Douluo looked like a black shadow, and it was difficult to see his specific appearance.
Anyway, the whole person looks weird and eerie, not at all like Zhan Tianzun and Yang Tianzun who are tall and brave. It is a bit inconsistent with the image that the Soul Palace has always maintained.
Xiao Mu smiled and said, "He is exactly the talent our Soul Palace needs. Let's go and see this new member of the Soul Palace."
Ye Lingling quickly followed.
