Chapter 2121 Killing with a borrowed knife? Mutual benefit?
"That's right, unless someone has tampered with it at some point, so that the souls of all dead people cannot enter reincarnation, and naturally there will be no new life."
Mr. Xu's voice was a little hoarse and he said.
"Then where exactly is the manipulation done?"
Lie Mingjing is puzzled by the explanation.
"Soul!"
Su Chen gave the answer directly.
"If I guessed correctly, everyone's souls should have disappeared!"
"Hiss...could it be that the great Shang prince is so capable of wiping out the souls of all the dead?"
Lie Mingjing took a breath of air.
"The way of heaven weeps blood, the way of heaven weeps blood, not only because of the injury, but also for another reason, that is, excessive grief, so the tears of blood are shed."
Mr. Xu pondered for a moment and said.
"Yes, the people of the ancient royal city are actually the people of Heaven. Now, human souls are extinguished, and the people of Heaven are dead forever, so I am heartbroken and weep for my parents."
When Su Chen said this, his whole body was shaken, and the flow of spiritual energy in his body accelerated.
Not only him, but also Chu Xiangxiang and others all had the same feeling.
"Huh? The ancient royal city's suppression of heaven has begun to weaken!"
In everyone's mind.
At the same time, an idea came to me.
"Look at this, it won't be long before we can use all our abilities!"
Lie Mingjing's face lit up and he said.
"Why are you happy? If the Heavenly Law of the Ancient Royal City really loses the power to control the Ancient Royal City, we will be the first to be unlucky!"
Su Chen glared at Lie Mingjing angrily.
"Why?"
Lie Mingjing looked at a loss.
"Because by then, both Gu Mietian and Demon Lingzi will be able to wipe us out in one go."
Mr. Xu said in a faint voice.
"Forehead……" Lie Mingjing's face showed a look of sarcasm.
"What you just mentioned, about the Prince of Shang wiping out human souls, is really puzzling!"
Su Chen frowned slightly and said.
"Yes, with the current strength of Tiandao, no one can wipe out human souls in front of it."
Lie Mingjing's face softened and he said.
"There is only one possibility, and that is that the great Shang prince brought human souls to other places."
Su Chen's voice was determined.
"Take human souls to other places? So, what do they use to hold human souls?"
Chu Xiangxiang's expression changed and she asked.
After everyone entered the ancient royal city, they were unable to use space magic weapons. Is it possible to use the mortal objects here to create treasures containing "human souls"?
This is also the doubt in everyone's mind.
Almost when everyone was puzzled, not far away, the little fire phoenix flapped its wings and flew back.
"Master, I know what they are using to load the 'human soul'!"
Little Fire Phoenix looked excited and said.
"Huh? Didn't you go to study the 'Bronze Small Cauldron' with the Bald Parrot?"
Su Chen raised his eyebrows and asked.
"The small bronze cauldron? Could it be that the treasure containing the 'human soul' is the small bronze cauldron?"
Everyone had a look of curiosity on their faces.
"No, no, the secret of the bronze cauldron has not been cracked yet. The bald parrot is working on it. It assured me that it will be able to crack the bronze cauldron in one day!"
Little Huohuang opened his eyes and told lies.
From beginning to end.
The bald parrot didn't even tell it about unlocking the secret of the 'Bronze Small Cauldron' in one day.
"Then tell me, what kind of thing can hold the 'human soul'?"
Su Chen didn't really believe in Little Fire Phoenix.
Although this guy looks more reliable than the bald parrot, in fact, he is also a weakling.
"This treasure..."
The little fire phoenix stretched out its wings and took out a dark medicine pot from under its armpit.
This medicine pot is about half an arm long. There is a silver iron lock at the mouth of the pot, which is inserted directly across the body of the pot.
"What? This...is this the legendary 'soul-binding pot'?"
The moment Mr. Xu saw this medicine pot, his expression changed completely.
"In ancient times, a peerless genius appeared in the underworld and invented a treasure that could emit a strange power on its own without any spiritual energy and pull the souls in the world. Moreover, this process is very hidden.
, even the emperor can’t notice it!”
"This treasure is the 'Soul Holding Pot'!"
Hearing this, everyone's faces showed a look of understanding.
It turns out that the great Shang prince relied on these 'soul-binding pots' to suck away the souls of the people who died in the plague.
Then, they were brought to an area beyond the control of Heaven in the ancient royal city, and then these human souls were wiped out.
In this way, the power of Heavenly Dao in the ancient royal city will be weakened.
One will ebb and flow, and it won't take long before the entire rules of heaven will be in chaos.
As for the great Shang prince, who controls the human souls of the ancient royal city, he can take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble and rebel against the chaos, and he might actually succeed.
"Where did you find this 'soul-binding pot'?"
Su Chen raised his eyebrows and said.
"On the door of an ordinary person's house."
Little Fire Phoenix thought for a while and said.
"I was just walking around on the street, and suddenly I saw it in front of a house." Hearing this, Su Chen frowned, with deep thoughts on his face.
"What's wrong with this?"
Little Fire Phoenix looked at Su Chen doubtfully.
"Besides that house, are there any other such 'soul-binding pots' in front of other houses nearby?"
Su Chen asked thoughtfully.
"It seems to be gone. In that area, there is only one house with this 'soul-binding pot' hanging in front of the door."
Little Huohuang recalled it carefully and said.
"This is strange. Although the 'Soul Holding Pot' can pull the human soul without the need for spiritual energy, its area of effect is not large. Basically, at least ten are needed within a radius of one mile."
Only by using the Soul Capture Pot can everyone's souls be captured."
Mr. Xu had a deep understanding of the 'Soul-binding Pot', and at this moment, he was frowning.
"Could it be that someone deliberately placed this 'soul-binding pot' there for Little Fire Phoenix to discover?"
Everyone is a fool. If you think about it carefully, you will guess it immediately.
"Nine times out of ten, this is the case. Some people don't want the Prince of Great Shang to succeed, but they don't want to take action themselves, so they want to use our hands to deal with the people of the Great Shang Empire."
Su Chen nodded and said.
"Ah... isn't this just killing someone with a borrowed knife?"
Xiao Huohuang looked angry for a moment, but he didn't expect that what he accidentally discovered on the street was actually a deliberate trap.
Annoying!
So irritating!
"This can be said to be 'killing someone with a borrowed knife', or it can be said to be 'mutual benefit'!"
Su Chen raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said with a smile.
"Yes, if we attack people from the Great Shang Empire, we will become a knife in their hands!"
Mr. Xu took a deep breath and said.
"But, on the other hand, the emergence of the 'Soul-Retention Pot' is indeed beneficial to us, because it is the key to the next step."
