Holy Bone

Chapter 1923

Fortunately, the divine beast statue could not leave the stone tower. After the attack missed, it returned to its original position, remaining squatting on the stone tower without moving.

Seeing this, the headless Jin An felt a chill run down his spine.

"Sure enough, these things have been infected with Yang energy!"

He had just noticed that the stone statues on the stone tower seemed to have come to life through contact with the sun, with signs that the outer stone skin had peeled away to reveal flesh and blood.

He had just made a discovery, and before he could examine it closely, he was attacked from behind.

Having learned from this experience, he became cautious and stayed away from the surrounding stone towers.

Maintain a safe distance from each stone tower.

It's unclear whether it was the safe distance he maintained or the limited number of statues that could survive by attaching to the sun that made him possible, but no more statues revived and attacked him after that.

This gave him the opportunity to carefully observe the stone tower statue that had attacked him.

The mythical beast statue resembles the ancient beast Xiao, with a shape like a monkey and long arms.

He noticed that the stone statue's joints showed signs of peeling away, and fleshy bodies were growing out of the joints.

That's why we were able to launch the operation and ambush him from behind.

However, because only the stone skin peels off at the joints and grows flesh, the stone statue's attack range is very limited. Once the prey is out of the attack range, it will not chase after it.

With this discovery, the headless Jin'an began to follow this clue and look at the other stone statues around him, especially observing the joints of these statues.

as predicted.

The joints of these stone statues all showed signs of flesh and blood growing back. The headless Jin An's gaze returned to the long-armed Xiao who had attacked him earlier. Currently, only this statue had come back to life, and with flesh and blood growing back at its joints, it was more worthy of study.

From a distance, the stone statue appeared normal; only upon closer inspection could the details become clearer. The headless Jin An made a new discovery: the fleshy body of the long-armed demon seemed to be increasing in size…

This discovery surprised Jin An, who was without a head, once again.

The danger level of this stone pagoda forest had already skyrocketed in his mind, because this was not good news. It meant that there were even more terrifying beings of the extreme Yang level deeper inside, which was like a nightmare for him, a "man from the underworld".

Just as the headless Jin'an was reassessing the danger level of the Stone Tower Forest, another violent surge of psionic energy descended, and just like the previous times, it was swallowed up without any power to resist.

When his six senses returned and his vision was restored, he let out a soft exclamation.

This time, he didn't appear near the entrance, but rather at the spot in the Stone Tower Forest where he was first engulfed by the psionic surge.

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he took out the Luo Geng Jade Plate again and used it as a bronze mirror to reflect his image. Just as he had expected, another halo appeared around his severed neck.

Now, two halos of light are emitting a faint glow, expanding and contracting in response to the multicolored beam of light shooting into the sky not far away.

If Jin An, who was headless, had a head now, he would definitely frown.

But he has no head now.

Whether it was his imagination or not, when he looked at the stone pagoda forest around him, he felt that the yang energy emanating from the stone statues on the pagodas was stronger than before.

He examined the stone statues with this suspicion, but found no obvious abnormalities. The growth rate of the flesh was not significantly increased; only the stone skin of the joints of the hands and feet was peeling off, and flesh was growing back.

Over the past two years, Wu Tou Jin An has experienced so many life-and-death situations and has managed to get to where he is now. He would never doubt his intuition. Although he has not found anything obviously unusual, he will be more vigilant on the road ahead.
