Lord of Bones

Chapter 629 Two Years Later
Li Yuan closed his eyes and felt the energy flowing in his body.

They were like a group of wild horses, galloping and leaping through his meridians, bringing waves of tingling sensations.

He took a deep breath, quickly let his mind sink into his body, and began to practice Pei Yuan Gong.

As Pei Yuan Gong was practiced, Li Yuan seemed to become a controller and began to guide the energy to flow within his body.

He could clearly feel the powerful suction generated by Pei Yuan Gong, which continuously absorbed the surrounding energy into his body.

The space within the Huayuan Array also began to fluctuate violently, as if an invisible force was stirring the surrounding energy.

Under the influence of the Huayuan Formation, the Xuanyuan stones began to release energy crazily.

These energies were like liquid, forming a water wave-like energy vortex around Li Yuan, completely enveloping him.

It makes one feel as if they are in an ocean of energy, with surging energy fluctuations all around.

He felt these energies seeping into his body through his breathing and skin pores, merging with the power of the cultivation liquid to form an even more powerful force.

As time went by, Li Yuan gradually adapted to this way of practice.

He constantly replenished the Xuanyuan Stone, so that the energy in the Huayuan Array was constantly flowing.

Whenever the power of the cultivation essence liquid in his body began to weaken and dry up, he would attract another drop of cultivation essence liquid into his body and continue practicing.

The whole process became extremely smooth and Li Yuan entered a state of ecstasy.

His consciousness seemed to float away from his body and enter a mysterious space.

He saw endless stars and a brilliant ocean of energy.

He felt as if he was one with the universe, able to manipulate the energy around him at will.

It is unknown when the Ziquan Tan of the Longshan Tan family will be opened, so he must consolidate and strengthen his cultivation as soon as possible.

Although he can do whatever he wants in Qinggu Continent with his current strength, it is different here.

There are many powerful people at the level of King of Heaven, and there are also countless Yuan people who are half a step into the realm of transformation.

He must remain vigilant and constantly improve his strength in order to gain a foothold here.

Li Yuan didn't know how long he would have to remain in seclusion, he only knew that he had to persevere until his cultivation was completely solid.

.........

Time slips away like fine sand, passing by silently.

One morning two years later, when the first ray of sunlight shone through the cracks in the cave and onto Li Yuan, he finally ended his long training.

The liquefied energy surrounding him had quietly dissipated a few days ago and was completely absorbed by him.

In the past few days, he did not add any Xuanyuan stones, nor did he take any more cultivation liquid.

Everything was going smoothly and steadily until today, when he chose to exit the cultivation state.

Li Yuan slowly opened his tightly closed eyes, a crackling sound of electric current was heard, and several tiny arcs of electricity flashed across his dark eyes, revealing a sharp aura.

He released the cultivation hand seals in his hands and exhaled deeply.

Feeling the surging power in his body, he could clearly perceive that his strength had improved a lot compared to before the retreat, and his aura had become even more powerful.

"Two years, countless Mysterious Origin Stones, and a few drops of cultivation essence fluid were consumed, but I was only able to completely stabilize my cultivation."

Li Yuan shook his head slightly, with a bitter smile on his face.

He didn't seem to be very satisfied with the improvement in his cultivation that he had paid a huge price for.

"However, my cultivation is now stable. If I encounter any opportunity, I will have a good chance of reaching the peak of the late stage." He thought to himself.

"King of Heaven..."

Li Yuan muttered to himself, his mind unconsciously replaying the thrilling battle with the Four Heavenly Kings of the Bihai Pavilion when he left Qinggu Continent.

His fists were clenched tightly, as if he could still feel the fierce battle.

After pondering for a long time, Li Yuan's eyes showed a determined light, as if he had made some decision deep in his heart.

He gathered his mind, raised his hand slightly, and a powerful force burst out instantly, blasting open the entrance of the cave.

Li Yuan moved and rushed out of the cave like an arrow.

After leaving the cave, he jumped lightly, stepped on an ancient tree outside the cave, and his body flew into the air.

He flipped his body lightly in the air, like a freely flying eagle, and after flying for a distance, he dived down.

"what!"

He roared loudly, his voice full of joy, venting all the depression and repression in his heart.

Li Yuan did not mobilize any energy and let his body fall freely. The whistling wind passed by his ears and he could feel the flow and impact of every breath of air.

Just as it was about to hit the mountain stream, Li Yuan's shoulders shook violently, and a crackling sound of electric current rang out in the air.

The emerald green thunder wings behind him suddenly spread out, flashing with dazzling light.

Lei Yi flapped lightly, and Li Yuan's falling body suddenly stopped, as if being supported by an invisible force.

Then, he turned into a dazzling ray of lightning and disappeared into the mountain stream, leaving only a few traces of lightning flashing in the air.

.........

One morning a month later, the originally peaceful atmosphere among the mountains and forests was suddenly broken.

A group of early and middle stage level five monsters, who were usually arrogant and domineering, now acted as if they were facing a formidable enemy and fled in all directions. Their fierce looks were replaced by an indescribable tension.

Suddenly, a dazzling flash of lightning streaked across the sky, passing over the towering mountains, like a flash of lightning passing through the air.

The sharp sound of wind and thunder echoed in the mountains, like the roar of nature.

The mountains, rivers and streams below passed by quickly as Li Yuan flew rapidly, like a flowing painting.

He looked into the distance and saw the vague outline of the city gradually becoming clearer on the horizon.

His body paused slightly in the air, and then he chose to land steadily on an inconspicuous hill.

"It's finally here."

Li Yuan sighed softly, his eyes filled with a mixture of anticipation and nervousness.

Although two years have passed, he is still cautious.

He had no idea whether the Tianyun Sect was still investigating the Jinglan Feng clan's remains, so he never set foot in any city for fear of causing unnecessary trouble.

The flight routes he chose were all through areas with lower-level monsters, so as to avoid conflicts with higher-level monsters as much as possible.

At this moment, standing on the small hill, Li Yuan took a deep breath, feeling the fresh mountain air, and an inexplicable excitement surged in his heart.

The destination of his trip was Lingpei City, a city that was not prominent but had its own unique charm.

There is no space teleportation point there, but there is a stop for the Huangxuan Yuanzhou, which can go directly to Longshan Tan Family.

Lingpei City is slightly smaller than Qingwei City.

To the northeast of this city is the famous Huaipei Wu clan, who are feared by all.

To the south is the famous Heling Cui family, which has a long history and profound heritage.

The two major families coexist and jointly guard the peace of Lingpei City.

The territory of the Heling Cui family extends a short distance to the south, which is the Longshan City of the Tan family.

Li Yuan decided to take the Huangxuanyuan Boat in Lingpei City to save time and energy.

There are not many masters in Lingpei City, so he can deal with them, and there are not many disciples from Tianyun Sect.

During this period, Li Yuan relied on Lei Yi's speed to travel which was not very slow, but the consumption of his energy was extremely great.

Li Yuan sat cross-legged on a small hill outside the city. The bluestone beneath him had been polished by time to be as smooth as jade, and the giant trees around him stood tall and lush, shielding him from the scorching sun.

He closed his eyes and regulated his breathing. The energy in his body flowed like a trickle, gradually recovering the consumed strength.

Li Yuan planned to return to the city after recovering to his best condition.

"boom--"

Not long after entering the state of cultivation, the sound of fighting was heard in the valley dozens of miles away, and Li Yuan hurriedly exited the state of cultivation.

He quickly released his soul power and swept in the direction where the sound came from.

As the soul power spread, the surrounding scenes gradually emerged in his mind.

A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes as he sensed seven or eight Yuanzhe whose strength had reached the middle stage of Yuanshen Realm, and among them there was also a strong man who was at the peak of the late stage of Yuanshen Realm.

“Isn’t this little place a little bit uneasy?

"How come there are so many Yuan Shen realms?"

Li Yuan was confused.

According to the information he had obtained before, the number of late Yuanshen Realm powerhouses in Lingpei City was not as many as in Qingwei City, but the scene before him made him a little confused.

Just when Li Yuan was full of doubts, a strong energy wave suddenly erupted from the valley in the distance.

Seven figures shot up into the sky like meteors, moving the original battle area to high altitude.

Their movements were swift and fierce, and each fight was accompanied by an earth-shaking roar, as if they were going to tear the sky apart.

The light flickered, the energy surged, the two sides fought back and forth, and the fight was hard to determine.

As the battle circle expanded, the seven people gradually approached the small hill where Li Yuan was.

Both fighting parties seemed to notice Li Yuan's presence at the same time, and suddenly stopped fighting, stopped attacking, and confronted each other in the air.

Seven cold gazes pierced Li Yuan like sharp swords, making him feel a chill.

It was obvious that both sides were guessing Li Yuan's identity and purpose.

They suspected that Li Yuan might be the other party's helper, which made Li Yuan feel a little embarrassed.

Li Yuan knew that it would not be easy to leave at this moment.

So he took a deep breath and bowed to everyone in the sky.

With a smile on his face, he tried to make his voice sound relaxed and sincere: "Everyone, please feel free to do as you please. Don't look at me. Just pretend I don't exist."

After the words were spoken, the surroundings fell into silence.

The tense atmosphere was like an invisible net that bound everyone tightly.

Li Yuan couldn't help but smile bitterly. It seemed that this trip to Lingpei City would not be peaceful.

Now that he's already involved, he can only grit his teeth and deal with it.

The long silence and tense atmosphere seemed to freeze even the air.

"Hou Junze, Shi Mengjuan, you'd better be smart and hand over your things. We'll leave immediately.

“Humph, if you want to continue fighting, don’t blame me for not reminding you.

"Even if I kill you, I can still take your things."

This depressing silence was finally broken by a skinny old man.

The old man had a slightly dark face and a cunning gleam in his eyes.

His cultivation is not weak, and he is the only Heavenly King powerhouse among the crowd. Behind him are two Yuanshen realm middle-stage and two Yuanshen realm peak-stage Yuanshen realm masters.

The old man's eyes glanced back and forth between the man and woman opposite him.

Both Hou Junze and Shi Mengjuan have reached the peak of the middle stage of the Yuanshen Realm.

But after a fierce fight, they had some minor injuries on their bodies.

Facing the old man's threat, the two men's faces turned pale.

"Lai Shan, you are becoming more and more daring. You even attracted the attention of the Baijia of Wenhe." The man shouted coldly with murderous eyes.

The old man smiled coldly and said coldly: "Is the Wenhe Hundred Clan so great?

“My ancestors were once among them.

"This kind of thing is not static, Hou Junze, you should be very clear about this.

“Your Dangu Hou family and Cangluo Shi family have both declined in recent years.

“I believe that soon, your two families will no longer be on the list of Wenhe’s hundred families.

“What do I have to be afraid of?

“Besides, this is Lingpei City. Your family is too far away. What can you do to me?
"Let's be frank. The strength of the two of you is beyond my expectation. It will take some effort to kill you.

“As long as you hand over the Xuanwang Grass and the Wenhe Order, you will leave immediately.

“Otherwise, I will kill you and take your possessions.

“By that time, it won’t just be these two things.”

When Li Yuan heard the three words "Xuanwang Grass", his heart moved slightly.

He had seen a top-grade precious medicine in the scroll of precious spiritual medicine he obtained from the Jinglan Feng family’s medicine garden.

Taking a large amount of this precious medicine has a certain effect in impacting the late stage of Yuanshen Realm, which is quite similar to the effect of taking Taixu Xuandan in the Nirvana Realm.

With the help of this medicine, he successfully reached the late stage of Yuanshen Realm. However, taking this medicine again afterwards would have no effect at all.

The name of this medicine is Xuanwangcao.

Originally, he didn't want to get involved in this fight that had nothing to do with him.

But at this moment he couldn't help but start to evaluate the true strength of the old man named Lai Shan, who was at the peak of the late Yuanshen realm.

Li Yuan's current cultivation has been completely consolidated in the late stage of Yuanshen Realm.

He was confident that as long as he did not encounter those geniuses who were ranked high on the Thousand Kings List, he would be able to fight even against ordinary Half-Step Transformation Realm powerhouses.

"The River Weapon Order? You really dare to think so." Hou Junze sneered, his tone revealing disdain and ridicule, "Don't say that we don't have this thing. Even if we do, we won't give it to you."

Obviously, he didn't buy into Lai Shan's threats.

At this moment, the woman next to Hou Junze suddenly cast her beautiful eyes towards the tall and handsome young man on the hill below.

Facing such a powerful late-stage Spirit Realm expert in the sky, the young man did not show any fear at all, but seemed calm and unhurried.

A strange color flashed in Shi Mengjuan's eyes, and she said, "My friend below, I am Shi Mengjuan from the Cangluo Shi family.

"If you can lend a helping hand, Brother Hou and I are willing to give you six stalks of Xuanwang Grass."

Shi Mengjuan was desperate at the moment and was trying every possible means to find a cure.

She looked at the young man carefully, but could not tell the depth of his cultivation, nor could she sense any fluctuation of his energy.

This made her feel a little confused, but at the same time she was full of expectations for Li Yuan.

After all, anyone who can appear alone on a small hill where monsters roam is definitely not an ordinary person.

“Friend, we have a total of ten Xuanwang grasses.

"If you can lend a helping hand, we are willing to give you all these ten Xuanwang Grasses."

Seeing that Li Yuan remained silent, Shi Mengjuan couldn't help feeling anxious and spoke again.
