Chapter 363: Bone Dragon (Part 1)

Among the mountains and ravines was an ancient city that was covered in vines. It was very ancient.

In the ancient city, a crystal skeleton that was restricted by the energy of an array formation floated in the air. Under the surging energy, it floated and sank.

The crystal skull immediately recognized that this was its body.

“What about the crystal skeletons that defeated you?” Black Skeleton looked carefully and didn’t discover any other skeletons in the ancient city.

In the abandoned ancient city, only this array formation was still activated, and emitting a terrifying energy fluctuation didn’t let the vines spread to the interior of the ancient city.

“I don’t know, but I can feel that the energy in my body is still there, still very perfect. Once I become one with my body, I can recover most of my strength in a short period of time,” the crystal skull said excitedly.

“Don’t be too excited. This isn’t the time for you to be excited yet. The five-colored skeletons of the Giant City have already gone down. The five-colored skeletons of the other three ancient cities have also come. More than a thousand five-colored skeletons are gathered below. We can’t do anything now. We can’t court death,” Lin Jiufeng said calmly.

He saw that around this ancient city, the five-colored skeletons of the four ancient cities had gathered together.

“Then let’s continue to observe. It’s useless even if they obtain my body, it’s not like they can absorb it,” the crystal skull calmed down and said.

Lin Jiufeng concealed his aura and slowly descended, approaching the ancient city.

In front of him were more than a thousand five-colored skeletons. Each of them had an extraordinary aura as they stared at the ancient city and began to discuss.

The five-colored skeleton leader of the Giant City said, “20,000 years ago, that skeleton beside the King of the Netherworld cultivated to the Crystal Skeleton Realm, but he was chased by several other crystal skeletons and started an earth-shattering battle. The aftershocks of the battle spread very widely. You guys sensed it too, right?”

The leaders of the Beast King City, Asura City, and Hundred Battles City looked at the ancient city and nodded silently.

“Back then, I was just a small red soul flame. When I felt the battle of the crystal skeletons, I was so scared that I trembled and didn’t dare to look at the sky,” the skeleton leader of Asura City said.

“Back then, it was also the first time I saw such terrifying power. I won’t forget it for the rest of my life. It’s just that I remember that the crystal skeleton beside the King of the Netherworld was defeated in that battle. I thought that it had long been burned to ashes, but I didn’t expect its body to actually be here,” the white tiger skeleton of the Beast King City said in a low voice.

“I didn’t expect to see it here after 20,000 years. It’s just that only half of its body is left now. Its soul isn’t here anymore, and it has been imprisoned here all this time,” the skeleton leader of the Hundred Battles City lamented.

“Say, why is it here and why is its corpse still imprisoned?” The five-colored skeleton of the Giant City asked.

“No one can answer this question,” White Tiger Skeleton said.

“No. I actually feel that there are many secrets in this city,” the skeleton of Asura City said.

“Indeed. That battle back then was world-shaking. The crystal skeleton by the King of the Netherworld’s side did die, but in front of countless skeletons, it killed one crystal skeleton and severely injured three crystal skeletons. Are the heavily injured crystal skeletons still here till now?” The skeleton of the Hundred Battles City sneered. Its words were filled with temptation. Its soul flame burned intensely and didn’t hide its intention at all.

It wanted to enter this ancient city.

“You’re saying that there are three half-crippled crystal skeletons in this ancient city?” The soul fire of the five-colored skeleton from the Giant City suddenly skyrocketed.

It was tempted.

“The four of us are all level nine skeletons. To enter the Crystal Skeleton Realm, we need a huge amount of energy. Now, there’s a high chance that there are three crystal skeletons here now. Don’t you guys want their soul flames?” The skeleton of the Hundred Battles City tempted the other level nine skeletons.

Level nine skeleton refers to the ninth level among the five-colored skeletons. It was equivalent to the ninth heaven of the Immortal King Realm.

A skeleton of this level was just one step away from breaking through to become a crystal skeleton.

But this step was extremely difficult.

Some would never be able to cross it in their entire lives.

Hence, if there were any opportunities along the way, they had to grab them. They couldn’t miss such opportunities.

“But those are three crystal skeletons,” the white tiger skeleton hesitated and said.

“They’re three crystal skeletons that are on the verge of death!” The five-colored skeleton of the Giant City corrected it.

“20,000 years ago, they were beaten into a very tragic state by the King of the Netherworld’s crystal skeleton. Although they killed the King of the Netherworld’s crystal skeleton and separated its head from its body, they also paid a huge price. This price is that till now, they are still in a deep sleep,” the skeleton of the Hundred Battles City said quickly.

“Let’s do it!” The level nine skeleton of Asura City clapped its hands and made a decision.

A horse cannot grow fat without eating grass at night, a man cannot become rich without a windfall.

“I will participate too!” The level nine skeleton of Giant City agreed.

“What about you?” The level nine skeleton of the Hundred Battles City looked at the white tiger skeleton and asked.

The white tiger skeleton was silent for a moment. It remained calm and collected as if it was waiting for something.

After a few seconds, it said, “Alright, I agree.”

“Alright, then let’s kill the crystal skeletons in this ancient city before we find the Well of Heaven Ascension,” the level nine skeleton of the Giant City said loudly. It looked at the ancient city aggressively.

“The other five-colored skeletons, retreat. I’ll go in and explore.” The level nine skeleton of the Hundred Battles City ordered its subordinates.

The skeleton leaders of the other factions did the same. After settling everything, they stood together and looked at the ancient city.

The four level nine five-colored skeletons walked towards the ancient city in an aggressive manner.

Lin Jiufeng, who was watching from afar, frowned deeply.

“Have they… always been so brave?” Lin Jiufeng really suspected that the brains of these five-colored skeletons were damaged.

There was a high chance that there were three crystal skeletons in the ancient city.

Even though they were seriously injured and their source energies were damaged when they fought with the crystal skull back then, and they had been recuperating since then, 20,000 years had passed.

Time would heal all injuries. Even if they hadn’t recovered yet, they weren’t people that the five-colored skeleton could provoke, right?

Black Skeleton asked in surprise, “Isn’t this seeking death?”

“Even if I’m injured, I still have the strength to deal with some low-level skeletons, not to mention that those three have recuperated for 20,000 years.” White Skeleton also spoke in shock, thinking that this was purely seeking death.

The crystal skull watched in confusion. It agreed with the words of the black and white skeleton.

Chasing forward like this was seeking death.

Even if they were level nine five-colored skeletons, it wouldn’t be enough.

Although from the surface, they were only one step away from becoming crystal skeletons.

But that gap was even larger than the gap between mortals and immortals.

“I understand now…” The crystal skull thought carefully and suddenly exclaimed.

“What is it?” Lin Jiufeng asked curiously.

“They aren’t going to die. They are just going to wake up the crystal skeletons in the ancient city and then lure them out,” the crystal skull said in shock.

“Isn’t that still seeking death?” Black Skeleton felt that there was no difference.

“That’s right. They are still seeking death because awakening the crystal skeleton is equivalent to suicide. Who will save them?” White Skeleton asked.

“Someone will come to save them,” the crystal skull said with certainty.

“Who?” Lin Jiufeng asked.

“The crystal skeletons from the four ancient cities!” The crystal skull said decisively.

“You’re saying that their current actions are because they also have crystal skeletons backing them up, that’s why they are so reckless?” Lin Jiufeng immediately guessed that the crystal skeleton of the four ancient cities had secretly come with the main group.

“Yes, this can explain their current actions. They are bait to fish out the crystal skeletons inside. Then, the crystal skeletons of the four ancient cities will attack at once,” the crystal skull said solemnly.

“Then, can we take advantage of the situation?” Lin Jiufeng’s thoughts spread. He immediately thought of obtaining the crystal skull’s body in the chaos.
