After all, the building before them was none other than a branch hall of the Hall of Souls.

The number of soul bodies stored within it reached the hundreds of thousands—perhaps even millions. Most importantly, almost all of these souls had been captured by the Hall of Souls Protectors in Central Plains.

In terms of quality, the souls in this hall were many times better than those Lin Feng had once obtained from the Hall of Souls Protector in the Northwestern Region.

"Right, hand me the Fallen Heart Flame and the Green Lotus Core Flame. Also, you two should conceal your real appearances."

Lin Feng was about to begin his move, but then he remembered that two of his Heavenly Flames were still in Xiao Yixian's possession, so he turned and spoke.

After all, at this moment, that Fallen Heart Flame—especially effective against soul entities wasn't with him. If he acted now, it would be inconvenient later when collecting souls after defeating the Hall of Souls's guarding experts.

"Alright."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yixian nodded gently. Her pink lips parted slightly, and two flames—one invisible and one azure—floated out from her mouth.

Then, with a light flick of her jade-like finger, the Fallen Heart Flame and the Green Lotus Core Flame shot toward Lin Feng. At the same time, Feng Qing'er retrieved two black robes from her storage ring.

She threw one over herself and handed the other to Xiao Yixian. Seeing the two Heavenly Flames flying toward him, Lin Feng stretched out his hand and caught them. With a twist of his palm, both flames merged back into his body, returning to his dantian.

"Haah!"

Right after Lin Feng absorbed the flames, Feng Qing'er and Xiao Yixian—both now hidden under their black robes—extended their delicate arms at the same moment and let out a clear shout.

In an instant, the surrounding space suddenly began to twist and distort. The range of this spatial distortion happened to cover the outer barrier around the enormous black hall. Seeing this, Lin Feng's figure shot out like lightning.

Before the spatial barrier created by Xiao Yixian and Feng Qing'er fully formed, he had already reached the Hall of Souls's existing spatial barrier. Of course, during his flight, he also pulled out a black robe from his ring and draped it over himself.

After all, not many in Central Plains knew that he could control multiple Heavenly Flames. With a wave of his hand, the dark crimson flame inside him surged forth. Then, his palm suddenly struck out, smashing against the spatial barrier.

Boom!

The instant Lin Feng's palm landed on the barrier, a deafening explosion thundered through the heavens. The violent collision between his palm and the spatial barrier sent shockwaves tearing through the air, causing the surrounding space to collapse under the immense pressure.

Countless shards of transparent space crystal fell from the sky. The noise was so great that everyone inside the Hall of Souls's protective barrier could clearly sense it. Immediately after, a furious roar filled with rage erupted across the sky.

"Who dares to attack my Hall of Souls?!"

As the voice fell, a middle-aged man of average build and unremarkable features appeared in the sky, accompanied by fifteen Hall of Souls Protectors shrouded entirely in black mist. Seeing this, Lin Feng was momentarily surprised—but then overjoyed.

If these guys had stayed hidden within the barrier, he might have needed quite some time to break through that turtle shell. But since they had come out on their own, dealing with them would be much easier.

"Who are you, to dare attack the Hall of Souls? Do you have a death wish? Do you really think that just because you've barely broken through to the Dou Zun realm, you can act recklessly across Central Plains?!"

The Hall of Souls elder, seeing that Lin Feng was only a One-Star Dou Zun, relaxed slightly and shouted angrily. Yet, Lin Feng didn't bother to reply.

Instead, his right hand clenched into a fist, and his figure vanished from sight under the propulsion of the advanced movement Dou Technique—Fleeting Light Shadow Step. Seeing Lin Feng's figure suddenly vanish, the eyes of that Hall of Souls Protector instantly shrank to needle points.

Anyone who could cultivate to such a realm was certainly no fool. The speed displayed by the man before him was so fast that even with his strength—one star higher—he couldn't catch a trace of his movement.

Clearly, this mysterious One-Star Dou Zun possessed an extremely high-level movement Dou Technique. If someone had mastered such a rare advanced movement technique, how could they possibly lack an advanced offensive one?

"Everyone, form the array—!"

Before the Protector could even finish shouting, Lin Feng's elusive figure had already appeared right in front of him. A fist shrouded in blinding golden light came crashing toward his head at terrifying speed.

"Myriad Steel Shattering Body Fist!"

With a fierce shout, Lin Feng's gold-lit fist smashed straight into the Hall of Souls Elder. However, at the very last moment, the middle-aged man hastily raised both arms to shield his head. Lin Feng's punch slammed hard into his forearms.

Crack!

A sharp sound of bones snapping suddenly echoed between them. In the next instant, searing pain exploded from the elder's arms.

"Ahhh!"

A piercing scream burst from his mouth.

Lin Feng's fist paused for a brief heartbeat after landing, but then the immense power behind it continued driving forward, forcing the man's shattered arms backward—straight into his own head.

Bang!

The elder's face was smashed by his own arms, and his agonized scream abruptly cut off. His body shot through the air like a cannonball, slamming diagonally down toward the ground below.

Lin Feng, following the principle of never letting an enemy catch their breath, flickered once more and vanished before the stunned gazes of the remaining Hall of Souls Protectors.

An instant later, he reappeared behind the Hall of Souls Elder, whose body was still flying backward uncontrollably.

The golden light around Lin Feng's right fist flared again.

Sensing Lin Feng's presence behind him, the middle-aged man's face turned pale with terror. In panic, he cried out desperately, "My lord! Spare me! I'll cooperate—I'll do anything!"

Lin Feng's raised arm froze slightly.

After a brief moment of thought, he dispersed the Dou Technique from his hand. Then, reaching out, he grabbed the Two-Star Dou Zun by the throat and effortlessly lifted him into the air.

"The Elder's lost! Run for your lives!"

Seeing their strongest fighter being held up by the neck like a helpless chicken, the remaining Hall of Souls Protectors—most only at the Dou Zong level—panicked instantly and scattered in all directions.

"Trying to run now? It's far too late."

Lin Feng sneered coldly as he glanced at the dozen or so black mist figures fleeing toward all sides.

The entire outer perimeter was already sealed off by Xiao Yixian and Feng Qing'er—both powerful high-level Dou Zun experts. With strength only at the Dou Zong level, these Protectors had no chance of escaping.
