Chapter 176: The Bone Demon

However, the strength displayed by Hook Snake was clearly just the tip of the iceberg.

Lu Yuan suspected that Hook Snake’s power was not as simple as he seemed.

If he couldn’t deal with that mysterious black snake properly, it would be hard to determine the outcome if he were to clash with Hook Snake.

With these thoughts in mind, Lu Yuan felt that he needed to be more cautious in his future actions.

However, in the short term, it was unlikely that he would have a conflict with Hook Snake.

After all, Hook Snake possessed hidden strength, and so did Lu Yuan.

Let’s not forget that Lu Yuan was only a clone who appeared here.

Without any interference from outsiders, Lu Yuan followed them into Fallen Dragon Valley.

Unlike Hook Snake and Fu Jiu, who flew directly across the lightning area toward the central area.

After Lu Yuan entered the lightning area, he began to gather the power of heavenly thunder in the surroundings.

If it were his main body present, Lu Yuan might have started cultivating right there.

However, because he was only a clone, Lu Yuan could only collect the power of heavenly thunder for now.

Collecting this heavenly thunder was no easy task.

Fortunately, Lu Yuan had a technique to collect the power of heavenly thunder!

[Ding! You have earnestly utilized the Divine Soul Pill Refinement Technique. Proficiency in the Divine Soul Pill Refinement Technique +20…]

Lu Yuan floated in the air, sweeping his hands in front of him.

With each sweep, a substantial amount of the power of heavenly thunder would be drawn out by Lu Yuan.

After extracting the power of heavenly thunder, it quickly condensed and eventually formed a special Heavenly Thunder Pill in front of Lu Yuan, shimmering with blue electric arcs.

Even Lu Yuan was somewhat astonished by the power of heavenly thunder contained within the Heavenly Thunder Pill.

Not long after, a total of ten Heavenly Thunder Pills appeared in Lu Yuan’s hand.

These ten Heavenly Thunder Pills were enough to completely dissipate the power of heavenly thunder in about one-third of the area.

Lu Yuan estimated that if he were to refine all the remaining power of heavenly thunder in Fallen Dragon Valley into Heavenly Thunder Pills, he could probably condense around fifty Heavenly Thunder Pills.

This was because the power of heavenly thunder in the central area should be even denser than in the outer area.

However, these Heavenly Thunder Pills alone were sufficient for Lu Yuan to cultivate the First-level Heavenly Thunder.

With this in mind, Lu Yuan stopped refining the heavenly thunder.

He hadn’t forgotten why he had come here in the first place.

By now, Hook Snake and Fu Jiu had spent a considerable amount of time in the central area.

If there was any significant opportunity inside, it was likely that a battle would soon erupt between the two.

It was the perfect moment for him to enter.

With this thought, Lu Yuan activated the array once again to conceal his presence and swiftly pursued the direction in which the two had departed.

Inside Fallen Dragon Valley.

After entering the central area, Fu Jiu quickly encountered trouble.

This trouble was not only due to the lingering heavenly thunder in the surroundings but also because of the special creatures formed by the combination of the heavenly thunder and the Myriad Bone Forest, the Heavenly Thunder Bone Demon.

[Heavenly Thunder Bone Demon]

[Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Stage, Level 10]

[Description: A special bone demon infected with the power of heavenly thunder. Its body is not only tougher but also possesses a certain amount of heavenly thunder power.]

If these Heavenly Thunder Bone Demons had a sense of self, they might have been able to condense their Demon Pills and become demon kings comparable to Core Formation Stage cultivators.

Even so, the strength of these Heavenly Thunder Bone Demons was not something ordinary bone demons could compare to.

The most crucial point was that their numbers were astonishing.

With a cursory glance, Fu Jiu discovered a staggering number of thirty of these Heavenly Thunder Bone Demons.

Moreover, after Fu Jiu entered, he noticed that the Heavenly Thunder Bone Demons were engaged in continuous battles among themselves, creating a bizarre scene.

They attacked each other, seemingly unaware of fatigue.

Almost every moment, a Heavenly Thunder Bone Demon would be battered to pieces.

However, after their bones were scattered on the ground, these creatures seemed to absorb the surrounding heavenly thunder and resurrect themselves, once again joining the battle.

During Fu Jiu’s time here, he had witnessed several Heavenly Thunder Bone Demons being revived.

Behind these Heavenly Thunder Bone Demons, there was a translucent bone marrow suspended among a row of massive ribs.

The translucent bone marrow was Fu Jiu’s target this time.

The remnants of a Nascent Soul Stage dragon bone.

However, there were so many Heavenly Thunder Bone Demons blocking in front of him.

Obtaining that dragon bone was not an easy task.

While Fu Jiu was contemplating how to deal with these Heavenly Thunder Bone Demons, he seemed to have noticed something. He abruptly turned his head towards a pile of dried bones nearby.

Gazing at the empty pile of bones, Fu Jiu calmly said, “Come out.”

But even after Fu Jiu’s words, there was no apparent change in the surroundings.

It was as if there were no other beings present.

However, Fu Jiu was convinced that there must be someone nearby.

Seeing that the other party still did not come out after he spoke, he slowly put down the coffin on his back.

Fu Jiu used a small knife to cut open his palm, and fresh blood immediately welled up from the wound.

He placed his palm on the coffin, and the blood dripped onto it, swiftly flowing into the depths of the coffin.

Swoosh…

Accompanied by the sound of metallic scraping, the sealed coffin slowly opened, revealing a pale figure. This figure was covered in green hair and had the appearance of a zombie.

Once the zombie emerged from the coffin, it turned its head to glance at Fu Jiu standing beside it.

Ordinary zombies generally lack self-awareness and act like wild beasts.

However, Fu Jiu’s zombie seemed to possess a certain level of intelligence.

Its scarlet eyes had a clarity that ordinary zombies did not have.

Fu Jiu looked at it and pointed in a certain direction, saying, “Go.”

Upon hearing this, the Green Hair Corpse immediately stood up from the coffin.

Bang!

As the Green Hair Corpse flew out of the coffin, it grabbed at a pile of bones.

With astonishing strength, a powerful sonic boom resounded through the air.

Just as the Green Hair Corpse’s claw was about to strike, a hand covered in scales emerged.

Boom!

The clash between the Green Hair Corpse’s claw and the black arm resulted in a terrifying shockwave.

Under the impact of the airwave, the nearby bones began to fly in all directions.

Once the pile of bones was scattered, a figure appeared before Fu Jiu and the Green Hair Corpse.

The person was none other than the concealed Hook Snake.

However, Hook Snake was unaware of the flaw that exposed his presence, and Fu Jiu discovered him.

Fu Jiu’s expression was very serious as he watched Hook Snake block the attack of his Green Hair Corpse with one hand.

This person’s strength… was quite remarkable.

Hook Snake glanced at the Green Hair Corpse in front of him, then shifted his gaze to Fu Jiu, and smiled, saying, “To be able to cultivate a Green Hair Corpse into its divine soul, it seems you have some skill.”

Fu Jiu’s eyes were filled with killing intent when he heard that Hook Snake had seen through his Green Hair Corpse’s background with a single glance.

Regardless of what this person had planned by hiding in the surroundings, just by uttering those words, Fu Jiu couldn’t let this person leave alive!
