"What's going on? His sea of consciousness is actually being protected by an indescribable force? " Looking at the guy who had already fainted, Xiao Chen had no choice but to give up on the idea of controlling this person after a few attempts!
That was because there was actually a very strange force in this guy's mind that was protecting his entire soul, making it impossible for Xiao Chen to control his soul.
"Could it be that someone else has already controlled his soul? But it doesn't feel like it! "Xiao Chen muttered, then he quietly left.
He soon found another elder of the family with a different temperament. This elder was meditating and cultivating in his room. Xiao Chen snuck in without making a sound and knocked him out as well.
However, when Xiao Chen intended to continue controlling his soul, he discovered that there was also a strange force in this guy's mind that was protecting his soul.
"This is really strange, it's actually the same?" This time, he didn't waste too much time. He directly left this guy's room and found another elder.
However, what made him depressed was that the third elder's soul was also protected by that strange force, making him unable to do anything.
"Could it be that the souls of the higher-ups of this family are all protected? Is it some kind of special protection method? "This time, Xiao Chen couldn't help but guess. After all, this kind of situation was really rare to him!
Soon after, he successively tried three or four other elders of this family. Without exception, their souls were all protected by that strange force.
"Let's go and try the ordinary people of this family and see if it's the same!" Soon after, Xiao Chen directly gave up on trying the other elders of this family. Instead, he set his sights on the ordinary people of this family!
However, after he consecutively tested a few of them, he discovered that the souls of the ordinary people of this family were also protected by that special force. If he forcibly controlled their souls, it would cause their souls to collapse.
"Could it be that the people of this family have some kind of special bloodline? Is it that force protecting everyone in this family, preventing them from being forcibly enslaved? " After confirming that there was really no way to control the soul, Xiao Chen directly left this family. Although he was puzzled, he didn't take it to heart. Instead, he went to another family.
Half an hour later …
"What the hell? What's going on? Why are all these people's minds protected by that strange power? " In this one hour, Xiao Chen had gone to five or six houses in a row without stopping. He had already dealt with more than two hundred people.
However, be it the higher-ups of these families or the ordinary clansmen, all of their souls were protected by a strange power, making it impossible for him to do anything.
"Could it be that everyone in the city is in the same situation?" Even though Xiao Chen found it hard to believe, he couldn't help but make a bold guess.
Then, he secretly found some cultivators who were not very strong, and even some ordinary people to test it on. In the end, he found that no matter who they were, their souls were all protected by this strange power in their minds.
"What the Hell? Forget about the cultivators, why is there a power protecting the minds of these mortals as well? Just what is going on here?" After being delayed for a long time, Xiao Chen had no choice but to quietly return to the quiet room that the Li family had arranged for him to train in.
He really couldn't understand why all the people in Tianfeng City were protected by that power.
This situation was simply unimaginable.
"Could it be that the people in this world all have some very special bloodline? Or is there an expert using an unknown great magical power to protect these people? "Sitting down cross-legged, Xiao Chen couldn't figure it out.
If it was the former, it was still fine. The world was big, and there were all sorts of strange things. Although he had never seen this kind of situation before, it didn't mean it was impossible. However, if it was the latter, then it was indeed somewhat inconceivable, because even ordinary people were protected.
"Or could it be that this place is indeed an illusion, and in order to prevent me from using this kind of method to easily achieve my goal and succeed in the trial, the illusion was deliberately made this way?" Following that, Xiao Chen couldn't help but think more deeply.
But no matter which possibility it was, it meant that his path was blocked again.
"I knew this kind of trial. It looks simple, but in fact, it's not that easy to complete!" Xiao Chen curled his lips.
Fortunately, with the previous two stages of the trial, he could now easily accept this kind of thing. He didn't feel disappointed or depressed, but he thought about what Li Xingda said before and thought of another way.
"Senior, senior …" Just as Xiao Chen was thinking about a way, Li Xingda's voice suddenly came from outside, "Gongye Jiqi is here!"
Xiao Chen walked out directly!
"You're here so soon? It seems that he has a strong intention to destroy your family! How did you offend him? "
At this time, Xiao Chen finally had the mind to ask how the Li family offended Gongye Jiqi.
"This … It's something that happened a long time ago! It's the family's ancestor who had a grudge with him. Moreover, during a treasure hunt, the ancestor seemed to have snatched a treasure that was very important to him. Since then, there was an irreconcilable hatred between them. Unfortunately, the ancestor of my family passed away because of an accident, and Gongye Jiqi's cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds. So now he's here to seek revenge! "Li Xingda smiled bitterly and didn't hide anything.
Although this kind of matter was considered a family scandal to a certain extent, now that they had something to ask of Xiao Chen, they naturally wouldn't hide anything from him.
"It's not as simple as seeking revenge, right?" Xiao Chen still saw through Li Xingda at a glance and didn't finish what he wanted to say.
"Ahem, Senior's eyes are like a torch. He came this time, other than seeking revenge, he also wants to take back the treasure that the ancestor snatched from him back then, "Li Xingda coughed dryly after being exposed by Xiao Chen, but still told the truth.
Xiao Chen glanced at him and said with a smile that wasn't a smile, "You don't want to hand over that treasure, so you provoked him to want to exterminate your family?"
"This …" Li Xingda's old face turned red, and his voice lowered a little, "Senior, it's not that we don't want to hand it over, it's just that the treasure was almost used up by the ancestor back then. Moreover, Gongye Jiqi himself has extreme resentment towards us because of this matter. Even if we hand it over, he won't let us go!"
