Lord of Bones

Chapter 685 Similar encounters
Following the order from the silver-haired old woman, the other Tianyun Sect warriors moved like lightning and dispersed in an instant, like an invisible net, trapping Li Yuan and the other four tightly.

Li Yuan and his four companions stopped and looked around with serious eyes. Facing the eleven aggressive Tianyun Sect masters, although they were a little upset, they remained calm on the surface.

"Who is the leader among you?" The old woman's voice was cold and majestic, and her eyes wandered between Xia Youran and Guo Jingxuan.

Obviously, these two women had the highest cultivation levels, which made her mistakenly believe that they were the core of the team.

"It's me." Li Yuan held the Thunder Flame Shield in front of him, "We have no intention of being enemies with you, we just happened to be here.

"Who are you? What do you want to do?"

"Haha, this is ridiculous!" A Tianyun Sect expert couldn't help but sneer, his eyes full of disdain, "In this Wenhe River Basin, there are still Yuan people who don't know the Tianyun Sect?"

The old woman narrowed her cold eyes and said without any warmth in her tone: "It's useless to talk to them, just do it directly."

Upon hearing this, Li Yuan and the other four exchanged glances and a tacit understanding emerged.

"We are willing to give in and explore other areas." Li Yuan tried to ease the atmosphere.

“Hmph, every inch around the Yanfeng Thunder Cave belongs to the Tianyun Sect. Where else do you want to go?” The old woman sneered, revealing her unquestionable arrogance.

At this moment, the sounds of wind and thunder around seemed to be even more violent.

Li Yuan's eyes were as cold as ice as he swept across the eleven Tianyun Sect warriors. A sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his voice was low and powerful: "This rock wind and thunder cave is vast and boundless, probably tens of thousands of feet in size.

“Even if all the Tianyun Sect members came out in full force, including all the Huawen Realm ancestors, they might not be able to control everything.

"Today, your choice will be your biggest regret."

He didn't finish his words and didn't move, but his hidden power erupted like a volcano.

The lightning and flame shield in front of him glowed brightly, and then squirmed like a living thing, instantly splitting into twenty-one lightning and flame blades, each of which contained the power to destroy the world.

"Zizzi-"

Accompanied by a series of sharp sounds of breaking through the air, the Thunder Flame Blade seemed like a lightning that cut through time and space. At an incredible speed and angle, it intertwined into a web of death and rushed towards the strong man from the Tianyun Sect who was rushing over.

The air was filled with the smell of burning and destruction, and every ray of blade light contained ruthlessness towards the enemy.

Those Tianyun Sect's Half-Step Huawen Realm masters who were originally full of confidence and ready to rush forward, became vulnerable under the fierce attack of the Thunder Flame Blade before they could react.

The four warriors didn't even have time to react effectively before their heads were ruthlessly pierced by the lightning blades. Their souls dissipated into nothingness in fear and despair.

Blood and sparks intertwined, dyeing the space baptized by wind, thunder and rock dust red.

The other few Tianyun Sect warriors who dodged the attack were also in a miserable state, with torn clothes and shocking scars on their bodies.

His soul was shaken to varying degrees, his face was pale, and his eyes were full of disbelief.

"This...how is this possible!" Seeing this, the old woman widened her eyes and her face was full of shock.

She never expected that a seemingly ordinary young man could burst out with such amazing strength and easily defeat their attack before it was launched.

"He is Li Yuan!" The one with Yuan screamed in shock, his voice full of fear.

At this moment, this name seems to be synonymous with death.

"Run!" The old woman made a prompt decision and felt fearful of this man who several elders of Tianyun Sect had failed to capture.

Li Yuan was able to escape from those elders, so he was definitely not an ordinary person.

Although the old woman was confident, facing the strength shown by Li Yuan at this moment, she knew that even if the remaining Tianyun Sect strongmen joined forces, it would be difficult for them to gain an advantage here.

The power of wind and thunder near the Rock Wind and Thunder Cave is intertwined, like natural shackles, binding the power of every Yuanzhe, greatly reducing their strength.

At the command, the remaining few Tianyun Sect strongmen immediately scattered like a flock of startled birds, looking for help from Tianyun Sect members in other areas.

Li Yuan curled up the corner of his mouth into a cold smile, moved his body, and instantly disappeared from the spot. When he appeared again, he was standing in front of a fleeing Tianyun Sect strongman.

He raised the lightning flame sword in his hand and chopped it down on the head of the strong man.

"It's not that easy to leave." Li Yuan's voice was as cold as ice.

He then turned around and looked at Xia Youran and the others: "You deal with the three people who have reached the half-step transformation realm."

"Yes!" Xia Youran and others responded in unison. Their aura instantly rose as they went to fight against the three powerful men from the Tianyun Sect.

The wind was howling and lightning was flashing, as if the heaven and earth were shaking.

The raging wind cut through the air like a sharp blade, and lightning streaked across the sky.

Countless rocks flew around like cannonballs under the influence of wind and thunder, greatly limiting the speed of the Yuanzhe.

However, Li Yuan seemed to be less affected. He used the power of the Spirit Pattern Life-Devouring Bone to fight against the pressure from the outside world.

His body was as fast as lightning, moving freely through the thunder, rock and dust, quickly approaching several other Tianyun Sect warriors who had reached the semi-successful stage of the Transformation Realm.

With the help of the thunder, rock, dust and wind raging around, the Earth Demon Blade seemed to blend into it and easily killed the opponents one by one.

There were lightning and thunder, and strong winds carrying small pieces of stone were like sharp blades, ruthlessly cutting through the void.

The three Tianyun Sect warriors who were at the half-step Huawen realm were unable to escape far due to the full efforts of Xia Youran and the other three to hold them back.

Li Yuan used space teleportation and arrived in an instant.

The blade flashed, and three powerful men who were half a step into the Huawen realm were killed without them noticing, adding a thick smell of blood and unwillingness to the air.

The battle was over, and there was a brief silence all around, with only the sound of wind and thunder still roaring.

Zou Hao and others looked at each other, with both relief at surviving the disaster and worry about the unknown future in their eyes.

"Li Yuan, we...will this bring us more trouble?" Zou Hao's voice trembled slightly.

Li Yuan smiled calmly and said, "They were the first to kill us, we just fought back in self-defense.

"Don't worry, I will bear all the consequences.

“Besides, I was the one who ended them in the end.

"Even if the Tianyun Sect investigates in the future, it will never implicate you."

Li Yuan looked around. The wind was raging, boulders were flying, and thunder was roaring.

He pointed at the rocks flying in the sky and being carried by the power of wind and thunder, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, split up and look for the Wind and Thunder Jade. Be careful."

Upon hearing this, Xia Youran and others nodded and then dispersed.

Li Yuan first checked the Yun Rings that he had seized from the eleven Tianyun Sect masters one by one. There were quite a few cultivation resources in them. He thought to himself, "These Half-Step Huawen Realm masters are much richer than Zuo Hen and his ilk."

He quickly picked out the most precious items.

.........

Deep inside the Half Mountain of Yixiang Valley, in the Rock Wind Thunder Cave, the energy contained within is gushing out at an astonishing speed.

Accompanied by deafening thunder and howling wind, the surrounding space was torn into pieces.

Half-step Huawen realm masters from various forces, like greedy hunters, stared at the thunder rock wind rolls struggling out of the rock wind and thunder cave. The wind column formed by the thunder rock wind rolls was not only the release of natural power, but also the mystery of the extremely precious wind and thunder jade.

Every piece of Wind and Thunder Jade is enough to trigger a thrilling fight.

After Li Yuan and his party experienced a fierce battle with eleven Tianyun Sect strongmen and successfully killed them, they finally gained a brief peace in that area.

More than a month later, they found three pieces of wind and thunder jade the size of a human woman's fist, which was a considerable harvest.

In the blink of an eye, five months passed quietly.

With the accumulation of experience and the improvement of strength, their skills in capturing Wind and Thunder Jade became more and more sophisticated, and the 20th qualified Wind and Thunder Jade was collected by them.

Two years passed like a flash.

Inside this giant mountain filled with the power of wind and thunder, the figures of Li Yuan and his companions became increasingly resilient.

Not only did they harvest a considerable amount of Wind and Thunder Jade, but they also achieved self-transcendence in endless challenges.

Zou Hao and Xue Ya's originally unstable cultivation level of the Half-Step Transformation Realm has become as solid as a mountain through day-to-day training.

Xia Youran and Guo Jingxuan showed amazing resilience in this extreme environment, and their improvement in cultivation allowed them to see the dawn of reaching the peak of the Half-Step Transformation Realm.

They felt that if they stayed here until the Xuanyin Thunder Realm's thunder weakening period ended, they would have a good chance of reaching the peak of the Half-Step Transformation Realm.

Just as Xia Youran and Guo Jingxuan were immersed in the fantasy of entering a higher realm, they were broken by a sudden murderous aura.

Several miles away, in the thunder and dust of Lei Yan, the roar of thunder and the collision of elemental force were intertwined.

Two teams of at least fifty Yuanists could be vaguely seen fighting a desperate battle.

Their figures seemed small and resilient against the backdrop of wind and thunder, and every confrontation was accompanied by a burst of energy, like the falling of stars.

This area, which was originally shrouded in tranquility, was instantly engulfed in fighting, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

Li Yuan and his companions have entered the Xuanyin Thunder Domain for more than three years.

No one knows how many Yuan people entered from Yinming Castle.

Moreover, there might be other Yuan people coming here from other entrances.

If they continue to stay in this area, they will not only be exposed, but may also be involved in unnecessary disputes and even face the danger of death.

So Li Yuan made a decisive decision to evacuate from here.

Although Xia Youran and the other three were reluctant to leave, they still followed Li Yuan quickly to another area.

"Surround them!"

Li Yuan and his companions had not gone far when a clear and majestic female shout, like ice cracking stone, suddenly rang out in the thunder and dust, carrying an irresistible force that struck the hearts of Li Yuan and his companions.

"Yes!" Several Half-Step Transformation Realm masters answered in unison.

Their figures shuttled through the thunder, rock and dust like ghosts, and in the blink of an eye, they surrounded Li Yuan and his four companions.

The sudden change gave rise to a sense of tension and oppression.

Li Yuan and his four companions steadied themselves and looked vigilantly at the ten uninvited guests around them. This situation gave them a sense of déjà vu.

All ten people were dressed in flawless white robes with fluttering sleeves, but they were subtly different from the Tianyun Sect costumes that Li Yuan and others were familiar with, exuding an extraordinary aura.

Xia Youran's voice sounded in Li Yuan's ears, extremely heavy: "Brother Li, be careful, they are the strong men of Lingyun Sect.

"We may have accidentally come to their controlled area."

"Lingyun Sect..." Li Yuan silently repeated the name in his heart, and his brows furrowed slightly.

He noticed that the cloud emblems on the chests of these strong men were not the common white ones of the Tianyun Sect, but golden cloud patterns that shone with dignity and majesty.

This subtle difference is enough to prove their identity, Lingyun Sect.

The woman in the lead, wearing a white dress that outlined her graceful figure, had long hair like a waterfall and a delicate face, but with a sneer on the corner of her mouth, she seemed particularly unapproachable.

The woman held a slender silver sword in her hand. The tip of the sword lightly touched the rock dust floating in the air, making a subtle and crisp sound. She asked coldly, "Who is the leader?"

This woman was the one who had just ordered Li Yuan and his men to be surrounded.

Her eyes also swept between Xia Youran and Guo Jingxuan, and it was obvious that she also regarded the two women as the leaders of this team.

"It's me." Li Yuan stood up like last time, his eyes met with the woman in black, "Who are you?
"Why are you blocking my way?"

The woman in white sneered and said contemptuously: "Boy, your questions are a bit redundant.

“Here, strength is everything, so what we want is naturally the Wind and Thunder Jade on you.

"If you know what's best for you, just hand it over and I might be able to give you a chance to live."

At this time, a middle-aged man in the team, with a gloomy face and murderous eyes, said rudely: "Why bother with them, just do it!"

The woman in white frowned slightly when she heard this, and was obviously dissatisfied with the middle-aged man's impulsiveness: "Didn't you see that they have two people who are half-step into the Huawen realm?
"You are all only at the small success stage of the half-step transformation realm.

“Although your strength is comparable to that of a great master, if we really fight, even if we can kill them, there is a risk of losing members.

"Wouldn't it be better if we could get their Wind and Thunder Jade without losing anyone?
"I don't want to be punished by Master Ming."

“You guys…” She turned her gaze towards Li Yuan and the others and spoke slowly, “We don’t want to commit more murders.

“But if you insist on resisting, don’t blame us for being rude.

"Hand over the Wind and Thunder Jade, and we can all live in peace, how about that?"

Xia Youran and the other four people were surrounded and communicated quickly during the tense confrontation.

The aura emitted by the ten people in front of him was even more powerful than the Tianyun Sect team he encountered two years ago.

Li Yuan stood at the front, brows furrowed, weighing the pros and cons in his mind.

He had already offended the Tianyun Sect and didn't want to make enemies with a sect like the Lingyun Sect.

Facing Lingyun Sect, Li Yuan also felt a little grateful.

After all, he was teleported to the Wen River Basin using the Lingyun Order.

Xiao Yan and Yong Zhu of Lingyun Sect also left a good impression on him.

He slowly raised his hand and slightly opened his five fingers. He saw five pieces of wind and thunder jade emitting faint lightning light and the sound of wind, gently rotating half a foot above his palm.

Li Yuan looked at the woman in white and said, "We can give you the five pieces of Wind and Thunder Jade in our hands as a token of our sincerity."

The white-clothed woman glanced at the five pieces of Wind and Thunder Jade and shook her head, "Only five pieces? That's not enough.

"What I want is all the Wind and Thunder Jades you have."
