Lord of Bones

Chapter 709 Jade Palace
Thunder and lightning intertwined in the dark void like an angry dragon rolling.

Accompanied by a deafening roar, a dazzling blue-purple light burst out, cutting the space into pieces.

The strong wind shuttled through the lightning, bringing with it bursts of shrill whistles.

The wind speed gradually climbed to its extreme, as if it could tear apart anything that stood in its way.

The surrounding scene seemed to be kneaded by invisible hands, with colors and shapes distorted.

Time seemed to have lost its meaning, and every moment was long and torturous.

Pressure as heavy as a mountain surged in from all directions, making it almost impossible for Li Yuan to breathe.

His consciousness began to blur, like a lone boat swept by huge waves, about to fall into endless darkness.

In the moment of despair, a dazzling light suddenly appeared, like the first ray of dawn, penetrating the shackles of thunder and storm.

Li Yuan only felt a flash before his eyes, and all the pressure and restraints disappeared instantly. He passed through the cracks in time and space and came to a completely different world.

The empty hall looks like the abandoned palace of ancient gods, and its grandeur is beyond imagination.

The dome of the palace is towering, inlaid with countless crystals like shining stars, creating a mysterious and solemn atmosphere.

The huge jade pillars are all carved with intricate totems and ancient patterns.

After years of baptism, it still stands tall and exudes a warm luster.

However, beneath the grandeur lies an unspeakable desolation.

The jade steps were covered with a thin layer of dust, and no one had stepped on them for a long time.

Although the jade chair still retains its former splendor and refinement, it reveals endless loneliness and desolation.

"This... should be the place where Emperor Yin Lei practices and meditates on weekdays."

Li Yuan slowly looked around. Wherever his eyes reached, every brick and tile contained an ancient and powerful aura.

"Zizzi-"

Suddenly, a rapid and sharp sound of electric electricity suddenly rang out, breaking the silence of the hall.

On the dome of the palace, there were nine dark cracks as if torn by an invisible hand.

Immediately afterwards, nine extremely dazzling lightning bolts swept through the cracks and landed accurately on Li Yuan's body, instantly transforming into nine sharp blades flashing with lightning.

Li Yuan's eyes immediately showed ecstasy. The nine thunder blades were the Earth Evil Blades that formed a thunder shield in the huge stone hall.

He raised his hand gently, and an invisible force surged out from his palm.

The nine Earthly Blades seemed to be summoned. They left the ground one after another and turned into streams of light that surrounded him.

Li Yuan did not hesitate to activate the power of the Life-Devouring Bone, the spiritual pattern in his body, and merged it into his blood. He then dripped the blood onto the nine Earthly Evil Blades, completing the ritual of dripping blood to recognize the master.

After completing the recognition of the master, he thought about it, and the void fluctuated again, and the remaining twenty-one Earth Demon Blades appeared out of thin air.

They were arranged in an orderly manner with Li Yuan as the center, together forming a spectacular scene of thirty Earthly Blades.

Seeing this scene, even Li Yuan couldn't help but feel his heart surging, as if he had mastered the most powerful force in the world.

"If I can arrange these Earthly Blades into a sword formation, how powerful will it be?"

Li Yuan pondered secretly in his heart, but he also knew that this matter could not be rushed and needed to be studied slowly and carefully planned.

So, he temporarily suppressed his excitement, put the thirty Earth Demon Blades into his body, and began to observe the jade palace carefully.

The entire palace is carefully divided into four major areas, each carrying different functions.

In the center is a jade platform that is several dozen feet square and its surface is as smooth as a mirror.

Each piece of jade contains a faint breath of thunder and lightning, faintly revealing the traces left by Yin Lei Emperor's cultivation.

The platform is surrounded by circles of exquisite jade display cabinets, which are arranged in an orderly manner.

Each floor is filled with a variety of ancient books, scrolls and precious materials.

These items are either old and yellowed or shiny and glossy, and all of them reveal the accumulation of years and the profound background of their owners.

Occasionally, a few faint flashes of lightning can be seen between the antique shelves, where the classics and materials of professions such as formation masters, alchemists, and treasure refiners are carefully preserved.

In the center of the platform is a jade table carved from a whole piece of jade.

Next to the jade table, there is a futon woven from soft yet tough jade silk, exuding a powerful aura and profound artistic conception.

Outside the jade platform, it is divided into three major areas, each with its own characteristics yet echoing each other.

The array master area is filled with intricate elemental patterns and array diagrams, and the air is filled with faint elemental force fluctuations.

The alchemist area is a place filled with the aroma of medicine, with various rare medicinal materials and alchemy furnaces arranged in an orderly manner.

The treasure refiner area is filled with various treasure refining materials, which sparkle with an alluring luster under the dim light.

Emperor Yin Lei, a powerful man who has reached the fourth level of the Life Spirit Realm and is half a step away from becoming a saint, has cultivation and wisdom as unfathomable as this palace.

Once a Yuanzhe enters the realm of life and spirit, he will have a long lifespan of at least 18,000 years, becoming a giant with longevity of ten thousand years.

The strong ones in the Life Spirit Realm are all proficient in formations, alchemy, treasure refining and other professions, and they are in an unremitting pursuit and exploration of strength and wisdom.

Entering the Life Spirit Realm means that the soul realm will also reach the initial stage of the Spirit Realm.

However, this is just the beginning.

If you don’t understand some auxiliary professions that rely on soul power to improve, then your soul power will stagnate.

Once the soul power breaks through the constraints of the initial spiritual realm, it will continue to grow with daily learning and practice, reaching an incredible level.

The soul power in the spiritual realm is only in the early stage, there is no middle stage, late stage, etc., there is only the strength of the soul power.

The soul power of those with the strongest strength can reach a hundred times that of the early spiritual realm and can explore an area of ​​ten thousand miles.

However, such ability is not easily obtained.

Even many strong men at the peak of the Half-Step Saint realm find it difficult to reach the limit of exploring ten thousand miles.

If one wants to break through this limit, the soul realm of the Yuanzhe must be raised to a higher level and reach the legendary holy realm.

All of this has left a deep imprint and endless inspiration in this palace.

Inside the hall, the light was soft, as if every ray of light contained knowledge and power.

Scrolls of elixir recipes, treasure refining scrolls, Yuan pattern scrolls, Yuan technique scrolls, etc. are hung in the air in an orderly manner, or neatly stacked on the jade display cabinet.

At first glance, there is a dazzling array of items, all of which are priceless.

Li Yuan stood in this ocean of knowledge, with excitement and desire in his eyes.

An unprecedented sense of ambition and passion surged in his heart, as if he was hugging an endless mountain of gold.

He slowly walked to an exquisite jade chair, and after sitting down, a warm and cool breeze came from the back of the chair, instantly dispelling the restlessness and fatigue in his heart.

Li Yuan closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and immersed himself completely in the tranquility.

He began to think seriously and plan every next step.

If he continues to stay in the Xuanyin Thunder Domain with the Divine Feather Fan, he will definitely become the target of public criticism.

Countless powerful people will hunt him down frantically in order to fight for this treasure.

Emperor Yin Lei's arrangement undoubtedly provided him with a way to survive.

It not only gives him an opportunity, but also prevents him from being exposed to danger.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan's heart was filled with gratitude and awe. His current strength was simply unable to compete with all the forces, so it was really not appropriate for him to show up in public.

The best option right now is to hide and improve your strength.

There is no doubt that the jade palace for meditation provided by Emperor Yin Lei is a very good hiding place.

The walls, floors and even the dome of the palace are all carved with complex and exquisite Yuan patterns, which contain powerful defense and concealment capabilities, making it impossible for the outside world to sense its existence.

Li Yuan tried to use his attainments in Yuanwen to interpret these Yuan arrays.

But he soon discovered that the complexity of these elemental formations far exceeded his imagination.

The elemental patterns are intertwined and influence each other, forming a huge and difficult to break array.

With his current strength and experience, it would take at least several decades, or even longer, to completely crack these elemental patterns.

However, this did not frustrate or discourage Li Yuan.

On the contrary, he became more determined in his beliefs and determination.

This jade palace is the best place for him to comprehend, and it is also his best choice to avoid being hunted down and improve his strength.

Here, he can practice Yuanshu, study alchemy, explore the art of treasure refining with peace of mind, and constantly improve his strength and realm.

As his thoughts gradually became clearer, an unprecedented motivation surged in Li Yuan's heart.

"I will meditate here until the violent thunder in the Xuanyin Thunder Domain weakens." Li Yuan said to himself.

After the decision was made, Li Yuan began detailed preparations.

Inside the Jade Palace, every inch of space exudes simplicity and extraordinaryness.

He stepped into the medicine refining area, where rows of crystal clear jade cabinets were neatly arranged.

The cabinet door opened gently, and the aroma of medicine wafted into the air.

The unique fragrance of the precious medicine is rich yet elegant, as if it can wash away the dust in your heart.

There are various kinds of magical medicines arranged in order in the cabinet, some are as bright as gems, and some are glowing with a faint spiritual light. Each one contains the essence of nature and the precipitation of time.

In addition to the aroma of medicine filling the hall, the scene in the treasure refining area is equally shocking.

Various treasure-refining materials are piled up like mountains, some of which shine with the cold luster of metal, while others are as smooth as jade, exuding an extraordinary aura.

Although Li Yuan had no intention of delving into the art of treasure refining at the moment, looking at these precious materials, he couldn't help but feel a sense of longing for the future.

The step of refining treasures must be carried out eventually.

For any strong person who steps into the realm of life spirit, refining medicine, refining treasures, and forming formations are indispensable.

They are not only aids in improving strength, but also help in understanding the mysteries of heaven and earth.

The lifespan in the Life Spirit Realm is long, but the improvement of cultivation is extremely slow.

These auxiliary professions have become the indispensable steps for Yuanzhe to reach the peak.

When fighting against the enemy, the abilities granted by these auxiliary professions become powerful weapons in the hands of the Yuan people.

They allow the elementalists to flexibly use various means in battle.

Whether it is a elixir that can instantly heal injuries, or a Yuanbao that has both offensive and defensive capabilities, or even an exquisite Yuan formation, they can all allow a Yuan practitioner to escape danger in critical moments and not be helpless.

When it comes to the huge value of elixirs and magical treasures, even the head of a powerful force would find it difficult to afford it.

These auxiliary professions not only help the Yuan people to comprehend the great Dao, but also are indispensable survival skills for them on the road of cultivation.

Li Yuan planned to try to split his primordial spirit into two parts and make it the spirit of the Qiankun Cauldron after his soul realm broke through to the spiritual realm.

The Qiankun Ding can operate on its own without his personal control and refine high-level elixirs and ingots.

That would be an unprecedented attempt.

After organizing the two major areas of medicine refining and treasure refining, Li Yuan came to the area where precious information of the array master lineage was stored.

He shuttled between the bookshelves, his fingertips gently running over each ancient book.

Li Yuan possesses some memories of spiritual heritage, so he does not need to ask any powerful person for advice on the art of formations.

But this does not mean that he will underestimate the wisdom of these powerful people.

On the contrary, he cherishes this heritage even more and hopes to draw more inspiration and enlightenment from it.

The Yuanwen scrolls and silk scrolls left behind by Emperor Yin Lei are piled up like a mountain, and each scroll exudes a faint glow, which is the resonance of the Yuanwen power and the laws of nature.

Li Yuan picked up a scroll at random. The patterns on it were intricate, like the trajectory of stars, and each one contained profound power.

He looked at it carefully and was secretly amazed.

Even the most common scroll has far more than a hundred Yuan patterns on it.

There are also many scrolls engraved with three hundred and sixty or even thousands of Yuan patterns.

He couldn't help but admire Emperor Yin Lei's attainments in the art of formations.

In the vast ocean of Yuan Patterns, Li Yuan did not find any scroll engraved with Ten Thousand Yuan Patterns.

This made him feel a little regretful.

However, these scrolls left by Emperor Yin Lei will become his powerful weapons.

When facing an ordinary Huawen realm expert, he had enough confidence to protect himself with these scrolls.

However, if you are besieged by multiple powerful people in the Huawen realm, you will need to activate several scrolls, which is not so easy.

It is easy for any Yuan user to activate one Yuan pattern scroll, but once it exceeds one, the difficulty becomes at least ten times greater.

For Li Yuan, it is not difficult to continuously activate scrolls with less than 100 Yuan Patterns.

It is also easy to activate a scroll of a hundred elemental patterns.

However, if one wants to activate multiple scrolls with more than a hundred elemental patterns at the same time, the difficulty will also increase exponentially.

This is not only a test of Yuanli, but also an extreme challenge to soul power and control ability.

Unless he enters the realm of transformation and has the ability to condense the pattern seal, the difficulty will be greatly reduced.

After cleaning the Yuanwen scroll, Li Yuan came to the center of the hall and saw a jade platform that exuded a warm luster.

On the jade table in the center of the platform, an ancient book lay quietly.

The cover of the ancient book has no gorgeous decoration and is made of an unknown material.

Time seems to have left no trace on it, but it looks ancient and weathered, yet as if it had just been baked.

With awe in his heart, Li Yuan slowly walked to the jade table, stretched out his hands, carefully picked up the ancient book, and gently opened it, fearing to disturb the wisdom sleeping inside.

"what!"

A light cry came out of Li Yuan's mouth involuntarily.

The ancient book consists of only a few pages, covered with dense and strange patterns of various shapes.

These patterns are like a dragon soaring into the sky or a phoenix dancing in the sky.

It is neither a common character in the world nor any known totem.

They are intertwined in an indescribable way, containing the mysteries and power of heaven and earth.
