Lord of Bones

Chapter 637: Reaching the Top Three
At the same time that the Thunder and Fire Whip split into two, a tiny thunder blade also emerged, stabbing towards Fan Zhimeng as fast as lightning.

Fan Zhimeng's pretty face suddenly changed, and panic appeared in her eyes.

She hurriedly formed seals with her hands, and water-blue energy surged out, quickly condensing into a huge water ball in front of her.

The water ball is also covered with incomplete Yuan patterns.

Just as the water ball was about to be completed, the Thunder Blade shot over.

"laugh--"

A sharp sound of breaking through the air was heard, and the Thunder Blade penetrated the water ball without any hindrance, as if it was cutting through the water surface.

The Yuan pattern on the water ball shattered instantly and turned into starlight and dissipated.

"How is this possible!" Fan Zhimeng exclaimed.

She would never have imagined that the water ball defense that she was so proud of would be so fragile in front of the Thunder Blade.

She immediately dodged sideways, but the Thunder Blade was too fast and she was still a step too late.

"laugh--"

The thunder blade passed through Fan Zhimeng's waist, bringing up a pool of bright red blood.

Fan Zhimeng looked down and saw a deep wound on her waist with blood gushing out.

Although this blow was not fatal, it greatly restricted him.

If it were half an inch longer, she would have died on the spot.

"This is impossible!"

The onlookers around the square exclaimed, with shock and disbelief written all over their faces.

Fan Zhimeng is ranked 173rd on the list of top three hundred geniuses.

Her strength and excellence have long been deeply imprinted in everyone's hearts.

Although the Yuanzhe on the top three of the Hundred Family Prodigies List had never fought against the seven sects' prodigies on the Thousand Kings List.

But everyone generally assumes that the Yuanzhe on the top three list have at least the strength of the top 700, they are just a little older.

However, this scene before him was enough to demonstrate Li Yuan's power.

"Bang bang——"

At this moment, two thunder and fire whips were flying in the air, like two thunder dragons colliding violently with two giant snakes, bursting out with dazzling light and powerful energy fluctuations.

The giant snakes gradually collapsed under the fierce attack of the Thunder and Fire Whip. The thick fog on their bodies was dispelled by lightning, revealing their hideous and weak bodies.

Finally, under the blow of the Thunder and Fire Whip, the two giant snakes completely dissipated.

The two Thunder and Fire Whips slowly returned and merged into one, like a dragon circling in Li Yuan's hand, emitting dazzling lightning.

At the same time, the Thunder Blade that attacked Fan Zhimeng also completed its mission. After circling, it merged with the Thunder and Fire Whip again, as if they had never been separated.

"Senior Fan, do you want to fight again?" Li Yuan looked at Fan Zhimeng sharply and asked.

Fan Zhimeng's face turned pale. She took a deep breath, trying to calm the severe pain in her waist. She said unwillingly, "I lost. You are stronger than me."

She twisted her wrist slightly, and a strange and exquisite badge appeared in her hand.

The badge was engraved with intricate patterns, and in the center was inlaid a translucent crystal stone that emitted a faint glow.

Fan Zhimeng pondered for a moment, then threw the badge to Li Yuan.

"This badge of the top three of the Hundred Prodigies List now belongs to you.

"I have replaced my ranking with yours. I hope you can continue to carry forward the glory of my generation's genius."

Li Yuan retracted the thunder and fire whip and caught the badge steadily.

He bowed to Fan Zhimeng and said sincerely, "Thank you for your generosity and kindness. I will cherish this honor."

Fan Zhimeng snorted coldly. Although she lost the duel, her pride was still there: "Don't be too proud too soon.

"After accepting this badge, your position will be shared with all the badges on the Hundred Prodigies Ranking once a month.

"By then, there will surely be many geniuses coming to challenge you."

Li Yuan's face changed slightly when he heard this. He didn't expect that the badge would be so hot.

At this time, a gentle voice sounded in his ears, as warm as a spring breeze: "Li Yuan, congratulations on being ranked among the top three of the Hundred Prodigies List.

"You don't have to worry too much, your position will not be revealed to other geniuses on the list within a year.

"At that time, only those who are qualified to challenge you will know your location."

Li Yuan turned his head and saw a woman in a purple dress looking at him with a smile. Her temperament was gentle yet majestic.

"Thank you Miss Tan for clearing up my doubts." Li Yuan bowed to Tan Wenshu.

Tan Wenshu smiled, and then her beautiful eyes swept around, wrapping her voice with her energy, making it spread softly and clearly throughout the square:

"Everyone, please go away. After all, the heat of the King of Rebellion Conference has not yet subsided, and there are still some rules that everyone must abide by.

"Besides, this is the Blood Demon Lake."

Upon hearing this, all the Yuan people bowed and greeted each other, said a few polite words, and then dispersed one after another.

After exchanging a few polite words with Fan Zhimeng, Li Yuan followed Tan Wenshu to his residence.

.........

Under the cover of night, Li Yuan followed Tan Wenshu through the intricate and deep corridors.

Lanterns on both sides of the veranda flickered with soft flames.

The moonlight shines on the winding bluestone slabs, casting mottled silver-white colors.

Along the way, disciples from the Blood Evil Lake appeared from time to time.

Tan Wenshu would stop and chat with them, and then introduce Li Yuan to them.

Some disciples of Blood Evil Lake have also reached the late stage of Yuanshen Realm and are less than a hundred years old.

This person is undoubtedly an extremely talented person in the Qinggu Continent.

Li Yuan remained modest and cautious during the conversation. He did not want to be too ostentatious in this unfamiliar environment.

His face looked slightly pale against the backdrop of the night, and it was obvious that he was a little tired after fighting two consecutive battles.

Tan Wenshu noticed Li Yuan's weakness and did not disturb him too much. He just led him to his residence silently.

The quiet courtyard is surrounded by lush bamboo forest.

Only a solitary lamp flickers in the night, creating a quiet and deep atmosphere.

Tan Wenshu briefly explained a few words to the disciples who were guarding the place and then left.

Standing in the courtyard, Li Yuan looked up at the night sky.

The bright moon hangs high in the sky, and stars are dotted across the sky.

He took a deep breath of the cool air, taking in the stillness and coolness of the night.

After a moment, Li Yuan entered the room, sighed lightly, and shook his head helplessly.

Before entering the city, he was still thinking about how to subtly increase his influence in the Wen River area so that the Tianyun Sect would be cautious when looking for him.

He just didn't expect that his performance when Jinglan Fengshi broke the formation had caused quite a stir.

He had no intention of showing off, but the display of his strength made him famous.

Just a few hours after entering the city, his name had already jumped to 173rd place on the Top 3 Hundred Prodigies List.

The speed was so fast that even he was surprised.

Such influence was obviously beyond his control.

Originally, he hoped to create some buffer between himself and Tianyun Sect in this way. But now it seems that it might make Tianyun Sect pay more attention to him.

“Fortunately, within a year, the family members on the Hundred Prodigies Ranking will not come to harass me.

“I hope that Teng Qing can successfully restore his cultivation to the Huawen realm in Ziquantan.

Li Yuan sat on the soft bed, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.

He took out a few pills and put them into his mouth without hesitation.

The pill melted in the mouth, and a pure energy quickly spread throughout the body, making people feel warm and comfortable.

Li Yuan felt the energy flowing through his meridians, as if injecting new vitality into his body.

Slowly close your eyes and begin to meditate.

Although fighting two consecutive battles was not as strenuous as facing a Half-Step Transformation Realm cultivator, the consumption was still considerable.

He needs to recover as soon as possible in order to deal with possible risks.

When the first ray of sunlight shone into the room through the half-open window, Li Yuan slowly opened his eyes.

He glanced out the window and saw golden light filling the earth, bringing vitality to the new day.

Li Yuan sat up and slowly exhaled a breath, as if expelling all the fatigue and drowsiness from his body along with this breath.

Rubbing his forehead, he felt the clarity and energy in his mind, almost completely recovering from yesterday's fatigue.

He looked around, and his eyes finally fixed on the sunlight outside the window, and an inexplicable sense of security surged in his heart.

This is the Blood Evil Lake. No matter how arrogant the Tianyun Sect is, they dare not come here to look for him openly.

"In the next month, I should be able to practice and gather information with peace of mind." Li Yuan thought to himself.

A thought suddenly flashed through his mind, and he couldn't help but sigh.

“Most of the Yuan practitioners here call the Earth Demon Blade the Lightning Yin Thunder Blade, and have heard of the name of the Yin Thunder Palace.

“This means that Yin Lei Palace should also be in the Wen River Basin.

"Yin Lei Palace... was once a sect as famous as the Seven Sects of Wenhe."

Li Yuan muttered to himself, feeling an inexplicable curiosity in his heart.

“Where exactly is this once glorious sect?
"After the matter of Ziquan Pond is settled, I must find out the whereabouts of Yinlei Palace."

Thinking of this, Li Yuan suddenly remembered something and his eyes narrowed slightly.

“The senior who gifted me two Earthly Blades in Qinggu Continent also knew about Yinlei Palace. Could it be that she is also in the Wenhe River Basin?

"She gave me two Earthly Blades, a jade slip, a token, and a mercury moon ring..."

Li Yuan flicked his fingers and two rays of light flew out, transforming into a white jade slip and a token emitting golden and silver light.

“This jade slip contains two pieces of information. She said I might be interested.

“Once I advance to the Yuan Shen realm, I will be able to obtain a piece of information.

“As for the second piece of information, you need to survive the heavenly tribulation and enter the transformation pattern before you can obtain it.

“Whether I can use things for my own benefit depends on my luck.

"Even if it doesn't work, it will still be of great help to my cultivation."

Li Yuan shifted his gaze from the white jade slip to the token glowing with gold and silver light.

He said to himself: "The senior said that if I have the ability to obtain the second piece of information in the jade slip, I must follow the duties of the holder of this order.

“I don’t know how many years it will take to enter the Huawen realm.

"However, I have now entered the late stage of the Yuan Shen realm, and can at least obtain the first piece of information in the jade slip."

Li Yuan slowly closed his eyes, put his hands together, put his fingertips together, and gathered endless energy.

His fingertips trembled slightly, an invisible force flowed between them, and then he suddenly tapped the ancient jade slip with his energy.

Then, a gentle soul force emanated from his brows, like a silver thread, and flew into the jade slip.

At this moment, the surrounding space seemed to solidify, and only the subtle connection between Li Yuan and the jade slip was flowing slowly.

After a moment, he withdrew his soul power, and a look of joy that was hard to conceal appeared on his face.

"I didn't expect that the senior actually had such a connection with the head of Shuiyun Peak of Tianyun Sect." There was a hint of surprise and joy in his voice.

“There is actually a piece of Heavenly Bone-level Yuan Bone preserved on Shuiyun Peak.

“According to Ling’s memory, although the Mu Ze spiritual bone is not a top-level heavenly bone, the one at Shuiyun Peak actually possesses the Chun Ze bone spirit.

"The Chunze Bone Qi is of little use to me, but if I can activate the Chunze Bone Qi on the Spirit Pattern Life-Devouring Bone..."

There was a gleam in his eyes, as if he had seen the huge changes that might come.

“In the future, it will not only help me recover faster from my injuries, but also elevate my life spirit.

“It can make the life force not only be used to recover from my injuries.

"It seems that I have to go to Tianyun Sect once."

.........

In the high and hazy sky, a mountain platform made of huge rocks seems to emerge from the depths of the sea of ​​clouds, like an independent island, quietly floating above the endless sea of ​​clouds.

Around the peak, the clouds and mist are as misty as a veil, sometimes gathering and sometimes dispersing, making the outline of the peak vaguely visible in the clouds, like a misty dreamland.

The edge of the peak is surrounded by crystal clear rocks of various shapes.

These rocks glow colorfully under the sunlight, like gems.

Some are sharp like blades, some are round like jade. Each is unique, yet they blend harmoniously together, adding a touch of mystery and beauty to this peak.

In the center of the magnificent scene, two women are having a fierce competition.

The young woman was wearing a light blue long skirt, the hem of which was as thin as a cicada's wing and fluttered in the wind.

The long skirt is embroidered with delicate cloud patterns, which complement the surrounding sea of ​​clouds, making her look as ethereal as a fairy.

Her long hair fell like a waterfall, black and shiny, and her eyes were deep and bright, like the brightest stars in the night sky.

The woman held a long sword in her hand, the sword body was emitting a faint blue sheen, and the tip of the sword was pointing directly at the ground.

A faint mist surrounded the sword, like a flowing spring, condensing the essence of endless water, making her swordsmanship more agile and elegant.

The middle-aged woman opposite her was wearing a plain white dress, which fluttered in the wind, like a banished immortal who had descended to earth, untainted by the dust of the world.

Her face is beautiful and refined, with a gentle temperament between her eyebrows and calm eyes.

Her sword also glowed blue, but unlike the young woman's sword, her sword light was more restrained and profound, containing more profound power.

There was a faint halo around the sword, as soft as moonlight, yet with a majesty that could not be ignored.

The sea of ​​clouds is rolling and the waves are surging.

The clouds sometimes gathered into mountains and sometimes dispersed into rivers, as if a picture scroll of nature was unfolding at their feet.

The two women are like two bright pearls, shining brightly.

As they performed their sword techniques, the surrounding air was drawn and formed into vortices of air.

These air vortices swirled around them, making whistling sounds mixed with the crisp sounds of swords.

The tip of the sword cut through the void, bringing up gusts of breeze that intertwined with the clouds and mist.

Their figures were looming in the clouds and mist, blending into the surrounding scenery.

Despite the huge age difference between the two, their swordsmanship is exactly the same.
