Lord of Bones

Chapter 624 Leaving Feng Clan
The energy contained in the spiritual stone far exceeds that of the earth stone, and it plays an immeasurable role in improving cultivation.

Li Yuan held his chin with his hand, frowned, and fell into deep thought.

As the center of the entire Feng family ruins array, the importance of the underground palace is self-evident.

The spiritual essence stone is the core material that supports the operation of the underground palace array. Once it is removed, the entire underground palace's essence pattern will lose its energy supply and can be easily breached.

What's worse is that the Yuan patterns of the entire Feng family ruins will also be affected, and they will weaken one by one over time.

This would mean that the areas they had not yet explored would forever lose their mystery.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan couldn't help but feel a pity.

After weighing the pros and cons for a long time, Li Yuan finally made up his mind.

"Take it away!" He took a deep breath.

If the Lingyuan Stone is left here, it will only benefit the Tianyun Sect, and they will not be able to come back in a short time.

Hearing Li Yuan's decision, Teng Qing acted quickly without any hesitation and collected all the spiritual stones under the underground palace.

Every time a spiritual stone was taken away, the sealed space in the underground palace would tremble slightly, as if it had lost its support.

When the last spiritual stone was taken away, the sealed space of the underground palace was already shaky and showed obvious signs of loosening.

Li Yuan looked at this scene and couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

After Teng Qing completed all this, it turned into a rattan hairpin and fell into Li Yuan's hand.

Li Yuan looked at the rattan hairpin in his hand, smiled faintly, and said, "It's quite unique."

He casually inserted the rattan hairpin into his hair as a simple hair accessory.

At this time, the forbidden space of the underground palace has completely failed, and the surrounding space began to distort and deform.

Li Yuanlong smoothed his hair, fixed the rattan hairpin, and said, "Xiaobai, let's go!"

The silver-white dragon floating on his shoulder blinked, seemed to understand what Li Yuan said, and nodded.

It slid down Li Yuan's arm and easily slipped into his sleeve.

Li Yuan looked around at the underground palace that was about to collapse, sighed softly, and a complicated look appeared on his face.

He threw out a Yuanwen scroll with his left hand, which quickly opened up a dark space channel vortex.

With a grab of his right hand, he lifted up Wei Yuer, Xue Yuze and Xi Muxue and sank into the vortex of space together.

With their departure, the underground palace fell into complete silence.

Those Yuan Patterns that once shone brightly and the bones of those powerful men who once were glorious were all buried in this underground world as they left.

.........

Under the vast and boundless sky, a huge blue Huangxuanyuan Boat cut through the sky like a meteor.

Its huge body looks particularly spectacular against the backdrop of the sun, and its hull is flashing a faint green light.

In a room at the rear of the Imperial Profound Yuanzhou, Mu Cheng sat quietly in front of an ancient jade table.

A suspended jade slip in front was emitting a soft light, and was engraved with complex Yuan patterns.

He took a deep breath, slowly removed the jade slip from the Yuan Array, and carefully put it into the Yun Ring.

Mu Cheng's face was gloomy, and there was a cold light flashing in his eyes.

At this moment, there was a slight noise outside the door.

"Click——"

The door was gently pushed open and a middle-aged woman walked in.

She was wearing a white cloud-patterned long skirt, the hem of which swayed gently with her steps, like a blooming lotus.

Seeing Mu Cheng's gloomy face, she asked softly: "Elder Mu Cheng, what's wrong?"

"The Second Elder just sent a message that the soul tablets of several disciples led by Zuo Feihong were all broken."

Mu Cheng raised his head and looked at the woman, a complicated look flashed in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice.

The middle-aged woman frowned upon hearing this and said softly, "Weren't there only two guardians who died? Why are they all dead now?"

“It must be Zuo Feihong’s doing. That kid is becoming more and more arrogant and never takes the other two sects’ disciples seriously.

"Relying on his talent, he thought he would be the only genius in Shuiyun Peak who had successfully broken through the Huawen realm in hundreds of years. He usually ignored you elders."

The middle-aged woman's face suddenly turned cold, her mouth twisted, revealing a cruel look.

“It’s far from what the ancestors of Tianyun Peak taught us.

"It's a pity for Ruan Ningmeng. After Shui Jing left, her cultivation level has slowed down.

“However, this girl’s talent is indeed not bad. She has entered the ranks of Heavenly Kings through her own hard work. Zuo Feihong even feels threatened.

“After this exit, she should challenge the Thousand Kings Ranking.

“Perhaps, in 20 or 30 years, I won’t even be her match.

"Alas! Our Mu clan has been a bit disappointing in recent years."

Mu Cheng looked at the middle-aged woman and said helplessly: "The Mu family finally produced a genius like you. Your Yuan Xinjiao was much more famous than Ruan Ningmeng back then.

"I have been at the peak of the late stage of the Yuan Shen realm for more than 160 years."

The middle-aged woman nodded, her face slightly disappointed as she said, "It's also my fault that I was too impatient to break through to the Half-Step Transformation Realm, which damaged my foundation."

Mu Cheng shook his head and said calmly: “Speaking of your sad story, let’s not talk about this anymore.

"Ruan Ningmeng is still young and cannot achieve anything for the time being, but now the three veins are on the same line again."

"What do you mean?" Yuan Xinjiao's eyes suddenly widened.

"Zuo Feihong is gone." Mu Cheng had a blank expression on his face, and it was unclear whether he was happy, regretful, or heartbroken.

"No more..." Yuan Xinjiao was stunned when she heard this.

"His soul tablet was also broken." Mu Cheng explained.

"Hmph!" Yuan Xinjiao snorted coldly, a little unwillingly, and complained, "The ominous monster, the sperm-eating demon vine, brought great disaster to Shuiyun Peak ten thousand years ago.

“I didn’t expect that both of their clans had the demon blood token of this demon in their hands.

"If it weren't for this incident, I'm afraid we wouldn't know until the new leader appears."

Mu Cheng said in a deep voice: "Okay, we'll be there soon.

"Notify everyone to be prepared. Now that you have accepted the mission, investigate this matter thoroughly."

Yuan Xinjiao bowed to the old man and left the room.

.........

On the top of a towering mountain hundreds of miles away from the Feng family ruins, the space suddenly began to wriggle slightly, as if it was being gently torn apart by an invisible hand.

Within a few breaths, the space crack gradually expanded.

Finally, Li Yuan flashed out, like a meteor breaking through the sky, and instantly landed on the mountain peak.

He quickly put down Wei Yuer and the other two people around him.

Li Yuan raised his right hand, and three streams of energy came out like dragons and absorbed into the bodies of the three people respectively.

He was going to pretend to wake up at the same time as the others, but suddenly, his brows slightly frowned, his eyes sharp as torches, as he looked into the distance at the sky.

Li Yuan moved and disappeared from the spot in an instant, as if he had merged into the void.

In the sky, a few flashes of lightning flashed, and Li Yuan's figure quietly appeared on the branch of a towering tree.

He hid in the dense branches and leaves, quietly observing the changes in the sky.

Suddenly, a dazzling green light streaked across the sky, rushing past like a meteor.

"Rumble--"

The next moment, a deafening roar shook the sky, and the entire sky seemed to be torn apart by this force.

The loud noise of the air exploding was like thunder, spreading in all directions.

On the mountain peak, Wei Yu'er, Xue Yuze and Xi Muxue, who were still sleeping, were awakened by the sudden loud noise. They opened their eyes suddenly, and what they saw was the huge green light passing through the sky.

"That is... the Yuan Zhou of the Tianyun Sect!" Surprise appeared in Wei Yuer's beautiful eyes, and she recognized the meaning of the green light at a glance.

"Yes, it seems to be the Yuan Zhou from the Mu lineage of Shuiyun Peak." Xue Yuze nodded, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

"They seem to be heading towards the Jinglan Feng family ruins." Xi Muxue's voice was very soft, her eyebrows slightly wrinkled.

"remains……"

The three of them then realized that they were no longer in the dangerous underground palace, but appeared on the top of the mountain.

Wei Yuer hurriedly checked her body and found that it was intact. She was immediately surprised.

"We actually survived?" she said in disbelief.

The other two also looked at each other and checked their injuries.

I found that apart from being a little tired, there was nothing serious.

They couldn't help showing joy and felt extremely fortunate to be able to survive.

Recalling the various dangers and thrills that occurred in the underground palace, they still feel palpitations.

The feeling of escaping death is still in my heart.

At this moment, they stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the Yuan Zhou going away, and a trace of doubt arose in their hearts.

Did all this really happen?

It seemed like a dream that they were so lucky to survive and appear here.

A moment later, when the three looked up at the sky again, the huge Yuanzhou had turned into a tiny spot of light, gradually moving away in the sky, and finally disappeared from sight.

Wei Yuer, Xue Yuze and Xi Muxue were all filled with doubts and worries.

They wanted to know what happened to Zuo Feihong, and they wanted to know what Li Yuan's final fate was.

There are only two possible outcomes.

One is that Zuo Feihong successfully killed Li Yuan and the old woman beside him, but this also means that the three of them are likely to have their vitality absorbed by the sperm-eating demon vine, and their hope of survival is slim.

Moreover, once the evil vine comes out, the earth will be desolate and all living things will suffer. How many innocent lives will suffer.

Another result is that Li Yuan defeated Zuo Feihong.

If this is the case, then it was most likely Li Yuan who rescued them from the underground palace.

The thought flashed through their minds, but none of them said it out loud.

Because they knew that what happened in the underground palace later was inextricably linked to the Tianyun Sect.

This place is full of dangers and the situation changes rapidly, so we can't stay here for long.

The terrifying existence of the Sperm-Eating Demon Vine left them with lingering fears. If it weren't for the seal that suppressed it, such a monster would probably be enough to destroy the entire sect.

And now, the Yuan Zhou of Tianyun Sect has appeared, and this matter must be reported to the sect as soon as possible.

After a moment of silence, Wei Yuer, Xue Yuze and Xi Muxue all came to the same decision in their hearts.

They didn't communicate much, said goodbye to each other, and then flew away in three different directions.

After each of the three flew for a distance, they stopped and landed, taking out the jade slips from their rings.

These jade slips were important tools for them to communicate with the sect, and at this moment they were flashing with a faint light in their hands.

They sat cross-legged, constructed a Yuan Formation with patterned silk, then formed seals with their hands and began to use the Yuan Formation to bless the jade slips to transmit messages.

The three of them had solemn expressions on their faces. This matter was of no small importance and they had to seek the sect's protection as soon as possible.

Under the siege of Tianyun Sect, they had no chance of winning on their own.

A moment later, a response came from the jade slip.

They heard the voice of the sect's strong man, which revealed concern and solemnity.

The powerful members of the sect said that they had received their request for help and were on the way to meet them.

Hearing the news, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief.

So, they put away the jade slips and continued to fly towards the sect.

.........

After a long time, Li Yuan slowly emerged from the dense tree canopy, his face slightly gloomy and his eyes revealed a hint of solemnity.

Li Yuan thought to himself that before Teng Qing took away the Lingyuan Stone, the Tianyun Sect's Yuanzhou should have been on the way.

But because the incident happened suddenly, they did not know what happened in the underground palace.

But now, the Yuan Formation of the Jinglan Feng clan ruins has become unstable, and the news of the death of those disciples will be known to the Tianyun Sect immediately.

The area within hundreds of thousands of miles around will probably soon become the focus of Tianyun Sect's search.

He was alone, without the support of the sects behind Wei Yuer, Xue Yuze and Xi Muxue.

The second elder of the Longshan Tan family once mentioned that Ziquan Tan has not yet been restored.

It is also unlikely that the blood essence of the Blood Evil Lake would choose to appear at this time.

After all, the attack on the merchant ship where the Longshan Tan family was located has attracted the attention of all parties.

Li Yuan took a deep breath and understood the situation he was facing.

The most urgent thing he did was to think about finding a secret place to live in seclusion and temporarily avoid this storm.

Wait until the storm has passed, then slowly head towards Longshan City.

Now that he has the cultivation essence liquid in his hands, he can use this time to consolidate his cultivation and improve his strength.

After pondering for a long time, Li Yuan took out several maps from the ring in his arms. These were all obtained from the dead strong men in the underground palace.

He opened the map and carefully compared his current location with the floating map shadow.

This piece of forest is still located around the Jinglan Feng family ruins. Although it is hundreds of miles away, the murderous atmosphere can still be felt.

His eyes moved across the map. To the southwest was the 97th ranked Shanyuan Qiao family, while to the southeast was the sphere of influence of the Qianquan Meng family.

To the south is the Enyu Lu family, ranked 72nd among the 100 families in Wenhe, and further south is the territory of the Beiqing Lu family.

Going further south, there is a relatively open area without any large families until you reach Wen River, where there lives the Tengkang Chang family, which ranks 94th.

It is too far away from the Jinglan Feng family ruins. Although it is relatively safe, it is also farther away from the Longshan Tan family.

Li Yuan didn't want to waste his precious time on the long journey.

He needed to shorten the distance with the Longshan Tan family as much as possible while ensuring safety.

In fact, the Longshan Tan family is too far away. Instead of going to the Enyu Lu family, one can go directly to the southeast to the Huaipei Wu family, which is ranked 95th, or the Heling Cui family.

Not far south of the Heling Cui family is the Longshan Tan family, but no one knows exactly where the Ziquan Tan family is.

Li Yuan planned to inquire about it on the way to Longshan City.

He had to find a place to hide first. After all, he was a member of the Longxi Li family, so he didn't want to bring unnecessary trouble to the Li family.

After careful consideration, Li Yuan decided not to go to the towns marked on the map, nor to fly in a flying vehicle to avoid leaving traces in the sky and causing unnecessary trouble.

In this vast and rugged land, pirates haunt like ghosts.

The sky is boundless with no barriers blocking the view, and once discovered it is difficult to escape.

So, Li Yuan went straight to the deep mountains and forests where human Yuanzers rarely appeared.

Only in those places could he conceal his whereabouts to the greatest extent and avoid being discovered by the Tianyun Sect or other forces.

We will make further plans after we are out of the radiation range of the Jinglan Feng family ruins.
