Chapter 75

In the north of the Chu Nation, deep in a mountain range shrouded in dark mist.

Ugh ~

A low, horrifying roar came from a dilapidated ancient hall built against the mountain.

Boom! Hum ~

The interior of the ancient hall shook violently. Complex array patterns lit up on the walls.

Visible purple-black lightning bolts that looked like iron chains swam around the inner walls of the ancient palace, making sizzling noises. They flickered between bright and dark, making the dark palace even more eerie and gloomy.

He focused his eyes.

The purplish-black lightning converged and coiled around a dark golden throne in the middle like iron chains.

The dark golden throne was ten times larger than an ordinary throne. A ten-meter-tall skeleton giant wrapped in black gas sat on it. Two balls of dark red flames danced in its eye sockets, making one's soul tremble.

At first glance, it looked like a king of skeletons.

Ugh ~

The giant skeleton king let out a series of frightening roars as the purplish-black lightning coiled around it. Black gas surged all over its body, and a powerful sinister wind and demonic aura swept out dozens of feet.

Just a trace of that terrifying aura was enough to strangle a Viscera Refinement cultivator.

Bind! Bang!

Every time the skeleton king's thick skeletal hands struggled, it caused the hall and the mountain behind it to shake violently. It felt like the earth was quaking and the mountains were shaking.

"Given the formidable strength of my Bone Demon Palace, do we really need to revive the first Bone Demon King to wipe out the three sects of the Chu Nation?"

A low voice sounded in front of the ancient hall.

Only to see.

A wrinkled old man in dark golden robes stood amidst the black gas and sinister wind, holding a scepter in his hand. He stared at the skeleton king on the throne above.

"With the strength of your palace, especially the supreme elder, Absolute Yin Demon Master, defeating the three sects is naturally not difficult. However, has the Bone Demon Palace not learned the lesson of fifty years ago? "

An elegant and demonic voice came from behind.

Swoosh!

A pale-faced, handsome, and demonic youth in a blood-red robe appeared behind the wrinkled old man.

The handsome youth's blood-red robe was engraved with a strange and vivid blood moon pattern. It carried a mysterious and unfathomable aura.

Under the violent sinister wind and demonic aura, the blood moon robe fluttered.

"Humph! A few decades ago, my Bone Devil Palace was just about to annihilate the Iron Sword, Watermoon, and Yunyue sects. Back then, the three sects repeatedly requested for reconciliation, but we rejected them all. "

The wrinkled old man snorted coldly.

"But what could they do? At that time, the two neighboring countries were watching from the sidelines and were about to launch a large-scale invasion. They were much stronger than the three sects. In order to prevent both sides of Chu from suffering internal losses and benefit the neighboring powers, the Bone Devil Palace stopped their hegemony of unifying the Chu Sect world. Even when resisting the neighboring powers … "

The wrinkled old man slammed the scepter in his hand into the ground, and black energy snakes as thick as buckets jumped out of the black scepter.

Boom!

The entire ancient palace shook. The black gas snakes that were as thick as buckets poured into the body of the Bone Demon King on the dark golden throne.

In an instant.

A layer of faint golden bone markings appeared on the surface of the Bone Demon King's body. The surrounding black gas became thicker, and the flames in his eyes seemed to have a little more vigor.

"The strength of this first generation 'Bone Demon King' is not to be underestimated. The soul essence of the strongest third generation ancestor was once integrated into its body. Its power is boundless. If this Bone Demon truly awakens, it will be easy to sweep through Chu. But if it loses control, it will bring about an irreversible disaster. "

The wrinkled old man's voice was heavy as he looked at the blood-robed handsome youth.

"Don't worry, I'm not a simple blood cultivator. I have a certain level of attainment in the Dao of ghosts and corpses. Moreover, ever since we helped, the Bone Devil Palace has recovered to its peak in a few short decades, and even far surpassed the past. When have we ever suffered a loss? Our organization has always respected win-win and mutual benefit. We keep our promises, far surpassing those so-called righteous sects. "

The blood-robed youth smiled confidently.

A moment later.

Four figures dressed in rags with disheveled hair and dirty faces were pushed by a group of black-armored guards to the tall throne of the Bone Demon King.

"Let us go!"

"Bone Devil Palace! You want to use us as a blood sacrifice to the ghost demon? Aren't you afraid of incurring the wrath of heaven for such a heartless act? "

The four figures let out fierce roars.

The four figures being escorted were three men and one woman. Their auras far surpassed the Viscera Refinement stage.

"Four Qi Transformation Stage Postcelestial. Let's make do for now. These large families don't submit to our Bone Devil Palace. The Qi Transformation Stage overseeing them is just the right nourishment. "

The wrinkled old man nodded.

"Ahhhh …"

Shrill screams reverberated inside the ancient palace.

Four bodies were beheaded by swords and sabers. Blood flowed all over the ground, but under the strange power of the formation, it converged into a blood-colored pattern. Trickling blood snakes merged into the Bone Devil King's body.

Buzz ~

A layer of translucent blood appeared on the Bone Devil King's skeleton. As black gas and chilly wind intersected, the outline of its body solidified and thickened.

"Kekeke …"

The dark red flames dancing in its eye sockets faintly flashed with a hint of a sinister smile. It also had the coldness of a monarch overlooking the world.

…

Yunyue Gate, Inner Sect encampment.

After the Meteoric Iron Wagered Battle, Chen Yu meditated in the pavilion in his courtyard for four to five days.

"Cloud Fiend Fist and Bronze Statue Technique … have both reached a bottleneck."

Chen Yu murmured.

Phew!

He let out a long sigh and ended the days of hard cultivation.

This kind of hard cultivation sometimes had good results, but most of the time, the efficiency was very low.

And now.

Chen Yu's cultivation had stabilized at the late-stage Illuminating Pulse. Cloud Fiend Inner Breath was pure and stable, but it was still far from the peak of the Illuminating Pulse Stage.

With his current progress, he didn't need to consider breaking through to the Viscera Refinement Stage without a year or so.

This was the result of Chen Yu's solid foundation, Cloud Fiend Fist, high concept, pure inner breath, and increased cultivation speed.

As for the Bronze Statue Technique, the Raging Bull's Marrow that he was currently using was gradually losing its effect.

Of course.

With his "body skill talent," he might be able to advance to the higher Bronze Bone Level after half a year of hard cultivation.

In terms of cultivation difficulty, body cultivation techniques were several times more difficult than ordinary techniques.

As for Tiegang Sword and Cloud Treading Steps, Chen Yu cultivated them as martial arts techniques, and his progress was considered stable.

Among them, Cloud Treading Steps had almost reached the peak level.

Tiegang Sword was stable at the Great Mastery Stage. As long as he trained hard, with Chen Yu's body skill talent, he would improve steadily.

"The key is still cultivation, it is limited by talent."

Chen Yu had a sense of worry.

In the inner sect, most of the disciples had good talent, and their cultivation was mostly at the Viscera Refinement Stage.

Some of the Illuminating Pulse Stage disciples were younger, some were even younger than him by a year and a half.

Therefore.

With Chen Yu's current cultivation and strength, as a newcomer in the inner sect, he still needed some foundation to establish himself.

But now, he was worth a lot, and many people were envious.

To establish himself in the inner sect, he had to at least advance to the Viscera Refinement Stage, or reach the Bronze Bone Level with the Bronze Statue Technique.

Relatively speaking, the latter was easier for Chen Yu to achieve.

"Bronze Statue Technique to Bronze Bone Level first … then look for a breakthrough in cultivation …"

Chen Yu made the same cultivation plan as before.

Since he had body skill talent, then he would quickly improve the Bronze Statue Technique.

On one hand, a strong physique would improve his talent and strengthen his foundation. On the other hand, it would be easier for him to obtain resources while protecting himself.

This idea had been tested before, and it was feasible.

The Bronze Bone Level of the Bronze Statue Technique roughly corresponded to the Viscera Refinement Stage. Although Chen Yu's physique was tyrannical, when his Bronze Tendons were completed, it was almost comparable to the initial Bronze Bone Level.

As long as Chen Yu reached the Bronze Bone Level, it would be relatively easier to raise his cultivation to the Viscera Refinement Stage.

Because after the physique was strengthened, not only would his foundation be more solid, but it would also indirectly improve his meridians.

"Master, someone left a message."

In the courtyard, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old beautiful female servant bowed respectfully.

"Oh?" Chen Yu nodded.

"In the past few days. Qiu Xin 'er, Tong Yuling, and your two senior brothers all came. They saw that you were training hard, so they didn't disturb you. "

The female servant said.

"Qiu Xin 'er."

Chen Yu murmured, he roughly understood the other party's intention.

The previous battle was divided into two rounds. In the first round, Chen Yu obtained two kilograms of meteoric iron. In the second round, he obtained three kilograms, for a total of five kilograms.

These five kilograms were the price of leaving the Tears of Ice Heart.

Among them, the three kilograms from the second round had already been transferred to Qiu Xin 'er in the Cloud Sky Hall.

There was still one kilogram that he didn't give to Qiu Xin 'er.

As for why Tong Yuling was looking for him, Chen Yu wasn't too sure. The two senior brothers should be Li Dakui and the other two, who still couldn't forget about the Circulation Pill.

Chen Yu went out and went straight to Qiu Xin 'er's residence.

When Qiu Xin 'er came last time, she had already left a rough location.

In the Inner Gate encampment.

In a garden filled with the fragrance of flowers, Chen Yu met Qiu Xin 'er.

"Senior Sister Qiu, this is the two kilograms of meteoric iron."

Chen Yu took out two pieces of meteoric iron the size of an index finger. Although they looked small, they were dense and heavy.

"Thank you. Xin 'er urgently needed some meteoric iron, otherwise I wouldn't have disturbed you two days ago. "

Qiu Xin 'er smiled apologetically, like a peony that had just bloomed.

Chen Yu prepared to leave.

A man's voice came from outside the garden, "Is Junior Sister Qiu here? I would like to see you. "

The newcomer.

It was a young man in a purple robe, slightly arrogant and high-spirited.

It was the true disciple of the inner sect — Kun Ling!

"Eh! Junior Sister Qiu has a guest. Hmm? It's you … "

Kun Ling's expression froze when he saw Chen Yu.

"What business does Senior Brother Kun have with me? Xin 'er's meteoric iron has been gathered, so I'll be busy for a while … "

Qiu Xin 'er said calmly.

"Ten days from now, there will be a large scale auction that happens once every six months at the Hidden Lake Meeting. Now that the Demon Bone Palace has invaded, rookie disciples like me may be sent to carry out defensive missions. This is a time when we are in urgent need of precious materials. "

Kun Ling didn't look at Chen Yu and said to Qiu Xin 'er with a smile.

"Oh? A large-scale auction. I'll be done with my work then, so I can make a trip there. "

Qiu Xin 'er's eyes brightened as she smiled happily.

The Demon Bone Palace invaded?

These words made Chen Yu's head shake.

"The Demon Bone Palace invaded? May I ask what's going on? "

Chen Yu couldn't help but ask.

"You actually don't know? The Demon Bone Palace officially appeared a few days ago and expanded on a large scale. Now, not only the Iron Sword Sect and the Watermoon Sect, but even my Yunyue Gate is threatened … "

Kun Ling glanced at Chen Yu.

"Now, the three sects have officially joined forces." Qiu Xin 'er's delicate brows furrowed slightly as she added, "Some older disciples have already gone to the frontlines to resist the Demon Bone Palace. However, the situation isn't optimistic. My Yunyue Gate has already lost a Qi Transformation Postnatal expert and seven or eight Viscera Refinement cultivators. As for the Meridian Opening and Body Forging cultivators, we've lost dozens … "

Hiss!

When Chen Yu heard this, he couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.

He had only cultivated for a short four or five days, but such a major event had actually happened in the Chu Sect world!
