Lord of Bones

Chapter 294 Mysterious Killer

Fan Hongtao and Du Danlu bid farewell to Qin Yongtian and Mei Xuan, and flew back to their respective residences.

And Mei Xuan and Qin Yongtian turned into two long rainbows and swept towards Xiayang City.

The two chatted happily along the way.

Hao Xiyuan lost the duel, Mei Xuan was not affected much, Li Yuan undoubtedly played a key role in it.

Entering Xiayang City, they broke up and bid farewell just after passing the central king city.

The Qin family is in the western urban area, while the Yunliu Chamber of Commerce where Mei Xuan is located is in the southwestern urban area.

The two districts are next to each other, so since Xia Lin won the championship, the two have been discussing the alliance in private.

They all knew that Wan Xianyun of the Wanmeng Chamber of Commerce had fallen.

The Yunliu Chamber of Commerce needs the material supply from the Jingyang Chamber of Commerce, so a good relationship with the Qin family naturally has certain advantages.

The Qin family has many treasure smelters, and Mei Xuan plans to help sell ingots.

For the Qin family, a large number of pills are indispensable for the development of the family.

At present, the Qin family can only get some low-priced high-quality pills from the Alchemist Guild in Xiayang City.

No matter how good the relationship with the guild is, the resources obtained are limited. After all, the guild has to balance the forces of all parties.

The Qin family has always had conflicts with the Wanmeng Chamber of Commerce, and the relationship is not good.

Since the Yunliu Chamber of Commerce can replace the Wanmeng Chamber of Commerce, its future development is limitless.

In terms of pills, it is natural that they can be given priority to the Qin family.

Both sides have their own calculations, and the matter of cooperation and alliance is a matter of course.

.........

In the middle of the night, there was a strong wind.

Li Yuan, who finished his training, relieved the fatigue caused by the duel.

If the last round is successfully won, Xia Lin's championship can be ended early this time.

Winning the leader will allow everyone to enter the cultivation treasure land of the Eight Sects.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan was in a good mood.

After thinking for a long time, I lay down and slowly closed my eyes, preparing to fall asleep.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes suddenly, frowned slightly, and with a diving leap, he was ejected from the bed.

The footsteps were slightly arched, and they landed on the floor lightly, without making a sound.

"Could it be Miss Mu and the others are back?" Li Yuan said to himself.

The soul force spread out, inspecting the surroundings of the small courtyard, and then denied the previous thoughts.

There is the aura of a Nirvana strong outside, but it is much weaker than Mu Yuting, and it should only be the peak cultivation level in the early stage of Nirvana.

Withdrawing his soul power, he opened the door, walked to the corridor, looked around the courtyard, and finally looked at the room where Li Yunqing and Yuan Yao were.

Slightly raising his breath, he leaped a few times, then he swept out of the small courtyard and came to the woods where he met Meng Yi before.

On the rock where Meng Yi had stayed, stood a middle-aged man with short hair in armor, with a black cloth covering the lower half of his face, a long knife straddling his waist, and his right hand holding the handle of the knife.

The short-haired middle-aged man exuded a cold aura, filling the surrounding forest with murderous intent, directly threatening his life.

Same environment, same woods, same location.

This person gave Li Yuan a completely different feeling from Meng Yi, so he was an enemy rather than a friend.

Sensing this person's aura in the small courtyard, Li Yuan immediately became vigilant.

Along the way, soul power shrouded the surrounding area.

In a radius of five miles, apart from the Yuan Zhe of Yunjun Academy, there is only such an outsider, and this is the only one in the Nirvana Realm.

"As expected of the person who led Yunjun Academy to win seven consecutive victories, you were able to detect my existence. You really surprised me."

Li Yuan's soul realm is so powerful, not to mention there is a treasure in his body.

Confirming that the other party is only at the peak of the early stage of Nirvana, and there is even a gap with Wan Xianyun, is also the reason why Li Yuan dared to come here alone.

Looking quietly at the middle-aged man in armor, Li Yuan asked, "Who is your Excellency? Why are you spying on me here? What is the purpose?"

"No purpose, just want you to disappear."

The middle-aged man smiled, paused, and continued: "Oh, and the woman next to you."

"Are you from Mingze Academy?" Li Yuan asked.

As soon as these words came out, he felt a sneer appearing from the corner of the other party's black cloth covered mouth.

The middle-aged man snorted coldly and said, "Ming Ze Yuan? No, no, you made a mistake.

"However, you reminded me. After killing you, you can make a fortune from the supporters behind Ming Ze Yuan."

"Are you really going to kill us?" Li Yuan's pupils narrowed slightly, and he took a step back, pretending to be extremely frightened.

"Aren't you talking nonsense? You still don't understand what you just said." The middle-aged man sneered.

Li Yuan said helplessly: "Your Excellency wants to kill me, I think there is no possibility of escape.

"Since you didn't come here for Mingze Academy, please tell me who is going to kill me, so that I can understand."

The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows, and said: "Seeing how happy you are, I'm not afraid to tell you that it was His Highness the Eighth Prince who sent me to kill you."

Hearing this, Li Yuan recalled carefully that he had never offended the royal family of Daxia, and he had never heard of the Eighth Prince whom the other party said, so why did he kill their husband and wife.

It stands to reason that if the Yunjun Academy wins the leader, it would be the outcome that the Daxia royal family would most like to see.

After all, the team of Yunjun Academy can barely represent Daxia.

The other eight academies in this session have nothing to do with Da Xia.

The middle-aged man looked at Li Yuan who hadn't spoken for a long time, and guessed the doubts in Li Yuan's mind, and immediately said: "You don't have to think about it. The Eighth Highness I'm talking about is not the Prince of Great Xia, but the Eighth Highness of the Great Yan Dynasty. "

The Great Yan Dynasty, the first dynasty in the Qinggu Continent, is already considered a third-rate force on the mainland.

Why did the other party stare at them? Li Yuan made a little analysis, and the only thing that was related was the Qinglin Heart Armor on Li Yunqing.

"It seems that you have remembered something." The middle-aged man smiled, "The Qinglin Heart Armor belongs to my Dayan, and His Highness the Eighth Prince was young and ignorant, so he accidentally lost this treasure.

"I have been looking for it for more than 20 years, but there has been no trace of it. I didn't expect to find that this treasure is in your hands today."

Li Yuan finally understood that the reason why Yan Zhong was distracted in the duel square was because he recognized the Qinglin Heart Armor.

After all, he is a strong man at the peak of Yuan Dan Realm and a disciple of Bihai Pavilion, so he won't even forget about crushing the jade token.

"Yan Zhong, who represented Haoxi Academy, is the Eighth Prince of the Great Yan Dynasty!" Li Yuan asked.

The middle-aged man said: "You are indeed very smart. It seems that you have long known the origin of the Qinglin Armor.

"No matter how you obtained the Qinglin Heart Armor, but you know it belongs to me, Dayan, and you still dare to keep it for yourself, you have some courage and courage.

"However, these alone are not enough. In this world, strength is the most important thing.

"Although you are weaker than those eight heavenly talents with first-class primordial bones, being able to reach the peak of Yuandan Realm at the age of 50 is not bad in this remote summer, and you are qualified to die by my hands superior."

Li Yuan sneered, looked around, and said coldly: "Are you really going to do something here? Don't forget, this is the inner courtyard of Xialin College.

"Once there is any movement, the Nirvana experts from Xialin Academy will arrive immediately, and you may not be able to get out of the academy."

Hearing this, the masked middle-aged man laughed twice, with a cold glint in his eyes, and said coldly: "I really didn't expect you to dare to come here alone.

"So what if this is an academy? I was ordered to kill you, so I made all the preparations.

"Do you think someone in Xialin Academy will notice that I'm doing something to you?
"You are naive, you are still too young after all. Don't worry! No one will know what happened tonight.

"Don't you think the silence around you is terrifying?"

Even though it was late at night, there were usually patrols from the academy, and occasionally voices could be heard.

During Xia Lin's championship, the academy strictly controlled the fights among the members of the academy and punished them severely.

But other aspects are more relaxed than usual, so there are many places for evening gatherings.

In the past few days, it is usually after the fourth watch before everyone disperses.

Seeing Li Yuan's terrified appearance, the masked man stretched out his left hand, and in his hand was a half-foot-high, five-petal dark golden lotus, which was a bit strange.

"This thing is called the Five Treasures Dark Lotus Cup, a low-grade mysterious treasure. It can set up an enchantment within a radius of ten miles. I can only activate one or two percent of the effect now, but it is enough.

"With a radius of two miles, any fight will not be known to the outside world." The masked man looked at the lotus in his hand and said proudly.

After the brief introduction by the other party, Li Yuan continued to step back a few steps, looking flustered.

The masked man threw the five-treasure dark lotus lamp into the sky, and the treasure was suspended in the air, and ripples could be faintly seen in the nearby space.

"In front of a strong Nirvana Realm, it is impossible to escape from the Yuandan Realm." The masked man let out a strange laugh.

Indeed, although the difference between the peak of the early stage of Nirvana and the peak of Yuandan Consummation is only one level, when it comes to fighting, the advantage of the Nirvana state is obvious, and there is a world of difference in speed.

This is the difference between realms.

Taking the imperial weapon as an example, there is a difference of about ten times between the limit speed of the Yuan Dan state and the Nirvana state.

.........

Yunjun Courtyard.

Yuan Yao and Li Yunqing who were lying on the bed suddenly opened their eyes, they sat up suddenly, looked at each other, and looked around the room.

"Xiao Yuanzi has an accident!"

"Xiao Yuan has an accident!"

The two exclaimed almost at the same time, and a strong uneasiness surged in their hearts.

To be precise, the vague connection between Yuangu and Li Yuan in their bodies was broken.

With the improvement of cultivation, especially after Li Yuan survived the catastrophe, the connection between the bones is gradually weakening, sometimes even unable to sense.

However, there has never been such fear at this moment.

As long as Li Yuan doesn't deliberately hide his aura, they can sense each other within ten miles.

Now they can't determine Li Yuan's position through the induction between the bones.

The three of them, including Cang Yu, are four.

Within ten miles, everyone can feel the other party's existence. This is not a soul power probe, but a bone instinct.

Now I can't feel Li Yuan's existence at all, as if something is missing in my heart.

There is only one possibility for this feeling, and that is that Li Yuan may fall.

Li Yunqing was full of anxiety, but Yuan Yao calmed down and comforted her: "Don't worry, I'm fine now, which means Xiao Yuan is still alive. Let's go out and look for it first."

The reason why the little girl is so calm is because Ling said that if something happens to Li Yuan, she will also fall.

Seeing that Yuan Yao didn't seem to be talking nonsense, Li Yunqing relaxed a little, and said, "Search inside and outside the courtyard."

The two got up, rushed out of the room, and came to the ear room, but they didn't see Li Yuan.

He came out of the ear room, jumped onto the roof, searched the whole yard, but found no trace of him, and left the small courtyard.

.........

Dark woods.

The masked man in armor loosened his right hand from the handle of the knife at his waist, put his hands on his chest, raised his chin, and shouted to Li Yuan: "Boy, you are destined to die tonight, you still have to die?" Any last words?"

Li Yuan slowly circulated Yuanli, ready to face the battle, but did not respond to the opponent.

"The Qinglin Heart Armor has been used by that woman for so long, it should have been shredded into thousands of pieces.

"If you catch her without a fight, I can make her suffer less when I kill her."

Seeing that the other party still didn't respond at all, the masked man was a little annoyed: "Do you really think that Yunjunyuan won seven games in a row, so you are qualified to challenge the Nirvana Realm?
"You have to be clear, there is an insurmountable gap between Yuandan Realm and Nirvana Realm."

As he said that, the mouth under the black cloth grinned, as if he regarded Li Yuan as his plaything: "Then I will play with you first, and then I will kill you."

Even though he said that, he was extremely annoyed by a Yuandan realm ignoring him like this, his eyes flashed coldly, so he didn't say any more.

"Shh-"

The masked man with his arms folded jumped up from the rock at an extremely fast speed.

He drew out the long knife at his waist in mid-air and slashed at Li Yuan, and the shadow of the dark knife flew out.

It is difficult for the moonlight from the sky to penetrate through the woods, the forest is dark, and the dark knife shadow looks even more strange.

Li Yuan made a decisive decision, the energy in his body surged, he moved sideways, got out of the way, and flashed behind a giant tree not far away.

"boom--"

Where Li Yuan was before the knife shadow slashed, a big tree surrounded by two people behind him broke and collapsed in an instant.

Li Yuan, who was hiding behind a tree in the distance, did not intend to choose to avoid it all the time.

After avoiding the knife, he took out the Zangfeng from the ring, and a blue and silver flame-like arc appeared on the blade, and he slashed at several big trees next to the masked man.

"Boom boom-"

Suddenly, several big trees were cut off in the middle, and directly pressed down on the masked man below.

He didn't choose to attack directly because the opponent's reaction was quick and it was difficult to hit.

The next best thing is to attack with side objects, which is more sure.

Several giant trees that collapsed suddenly buried the figure of the masked man, and the dust flew up.

Li Yuan did not attack again, but retreated again and again, keeping the distance as much as possible, so that he, who is good at bows, has an advantage.

"Bam—"

The fallen trees suddenly exploded, and the armored figure slowly emerged from the dust, and the black cloth fell off his face, revealing his true colors.

The armored man sneered, and slowly walked out of the bursting trees, surrounded by black pistols, and the collapsed trees did not harm him.

"drink--"

With a loud shout, the five fingers of the armored man's left hand formed into claws, and he clawed at a tree trunk more than three feet thick on the ground. straight out.

Li Yuan, who was standing in the distance, squinted his eyes slightly, held up the Tibetan blade, and chopped the flying trees.

"laugh--"

Thunder's saber force tore the tree into two pieces and flew past both sides of his body.

Using the trees as cover, Li Yuan took advantage of the situation and continued to retreat backwards, pulling out a long groove on the ground.

Opening the distance, Li Yuan stabilized his figure a little, and cast the Thunder Yuan Arrow Array.

"boom--"

Countless thunderbolts fell from the sky, and the middle-aged man looked up, frowning slightly, and instantly formed a shield of energy to resist.

The entire twenty or thirty zhang radius around him was shrouded in thunder, the grass and trees were flying, and the mountains and forests were rumbling.

Dust, grass and trees covered a large area, and a look of surprise appeared in the armored man's eyes. There were cracks in the black defensive shield he formed, which obviously underestimated the power of Li Yuanyuan's technique.

"Bam—"

After a few breaths, the Yuanli Shield, which was continuously attacked by thunder, shattered, and the last few thunderbolts hit the armored man.

If there is no black elemental body protection on the body surface, it will definitely be able to injure it.

The blue and silver electric arc flickered on the surface of his body, but it didn't sink into his body.

The armored man's face was extremely ugly. Although he was not injured, he felt a little uncomfortable. He spent a lot of energy in order to resist the attack of elemental arts.

However, as a Nirvana powerhouse, the degree of strength in the body is by no means comparable to that of the Yuandan realm, which is an advantage of the realm.
