Lord of Bones

Chapter 716 Disaster Storm
The ghost-faced man threw the black-ringed broadsword in his hand, and the broadsword instantly turned into a black light, circling around him.

Afterwards, he quickly formed seals with his hands, and black light surged around his body. He was like a king in the dark night, summoning endless dark power.

In an instant, black tornadoes emerged from the sky above his head, spinning and spreading in all directions.

Finally, it converged into a black torrent that was big enough to drown everything and fight against the fireballs in the sky.

"Texture Technique, Disaster Storm."

Although Cang Yu's voice was quiet, it carried unquestionable majesty: "One of the guardian arts of Shadow Blade Tower.

"Such a big move, it seems that you are not only a core member of Shadow Blade Building in Wenhe, but also a person of high power and influence."

Upon hearing this, the ghost-faced man said with a bit of pride and caution, "Your Excellency is indeed well-informed.

“We really can’t send many people from our building to kill a person like you.

"If your injuries had not healed, I would not have easily attacked you."

Cang Yu snorted coldly, "Unfortunately, Wenhe's Shadow Blade Building branch doesn't seem to have a Life Spirit Realm in charge, so your Disaster Storm is not yet at home."

At this moment, the black tornado in the sky became more and more violent, like a giant beast that broke free from the abyss, with the power to destroy the world, roaring towards the fireballs released by Cangyu.

In the storm, the whistling sound of the wind was sharp and piercing, like thousands of arrows shot at the same time, piercing people's hearts.

Wherever it passed, not only trees and buildings, but even solid rocks were torn apart easily and turned into dust, causing chaos between heaven and earth.

Seeing this, Li Yuan, who was dozens of miles away, changed his expression and quickly took out a scroll of Yuanshu and activated it.

The light on the scroll became brighter and then turned into an inverted bowl-shaped light curtain, protecting the surrounding area firmly.

Even so, the remaining power of the strong wind still made him feel a little nervous, as if it could tear the fragile defense to pieces at any time.

In the sky, the collision of fireballs and storms was like the collision of countless stars, spectacular and tragic, and the space was shaking.

"boom--"

A loud noise resounded through the sky, and even the powerful village protection array began to show tiny cracks under the impact of such force.

Between the black storm and the fireballs in the sky, terrifying energy surged like a tide, devouring each other and repelling each other.

Fine and dense spatial cracks spread rapidly like a spider web, flashing a dark and mysterious light.

Occasionally, spatial turbulence overflows from the cracks, containing destructive power, making the surrounding void appear distorted and strange.

"Bam—"

After a brief stalemate, the strength of both sides reached its limit. With a muffled sound that resounded through heaven and earth, both of them turned into nothingness, leaving behind an aftermath that lingered for a long time.

As the aftermath of energy in the sky slowly receded like the tide, Cangyu's figure had already passed through the energy area and appeared silently behind the ghost-faced man.

The eight-foot spear in her hand shone with golden and red light, and on the tip of the spear, golden flames burned fiercely.

The flames contained a terrifying power that was enough to burn everything, causing the surrounding space to distort and reach the limit of the void.

"Ding Ding-"

The moment the spear carrying flames pierced towards the ghost-faced man, the latter thrust forward the black-ringed broadsword in his hand, and a series of crisp and rapid metal collision sounds suddenly rang out.

Cangyu's eight-foot spear collided violently with the black-ringed broadsword in the hands of the ghost-faced man, sparks flying.

The golden flame on the spear and the black light on the ring knife intertwined, releasing terrifying energy fluctuations.

"Now go into the cave on the mountain wall to find Huan Yuzhu." Seeing that he had restrained the other party, Cangyu immediately sent a message to Li Yuan.

Upon hearing this, Li Yuan did not hesitate at all. The Yuan Power in his body surged and his figure instantly turned into a ray of lightning. Almost in the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of the entrance to the cave on the mountain wall.

The huge stone gate looks ancient after years of baptism.

Li Yuan stomped his feet on the ground, jumped up, and punched the indestructible stone door.

Wherever the fist wind passed, the air was torn apart, making a sharp whistling sound.

"boom--"

The force of the fist landed on the stone gate, which immediately cracked into a shocking crack, with broken stones flying and dust rising.

Li Yuan flashed and passed through the crack like a dragon entering the sea.

.........

The space inside the cave is vast, like a secret place forgotten by time.

The ceiling of the cave is inlaid with crystals that emit a soft glow, which contrasts beautifully with the phantom jade bamboos floating around.

Each section of the magic bamboo emits a faint fluorescence, some are emerald green, some are crystal clear, just like a jade carving, swaying gently in the air, and like a phantom luring people into a fantasy world.

There is an indescribable freshness and fragrance in the air.

If Li Yuan did not possess a spiritual power beyond that of an ordinary being, able to penetrate the psychedelic appearance, he would have probably been deceived by this illusion and lost himself.

"So many Magical Jade Bamboos, it's simply a gift from heaven!"

Yuan Yao's voice was filled with excitement that was hard to conceal, and she suddenly jumped out of Li Yuan's body, transformed into a stream of light, and shuttled between the phantom jade bamboos, with greed in her eyes as she thought about the scene of feasting on them.

"Can I eat a few pieces?" Yuan Yao looked at Li Yuan and asked.

"Hey, Xiaoyaoyao, don't be anxious." Li Yuan's mouth curled up a playful smile, his eyes fixed on the two figures in the deepest part of the cave, "As long as you get rid of one of them, these magic jade bamboos, don't say a few sections, or even half of them will be no problem."

Phantom Polygonatum is a special precious medicine and is extremely valuable.

In fact, it was not that Li Yuan suddenly became so generous. At this moment, the magic jade bamboo in the cave had just matured and had not yet solidified, making it inconvenient to carry.

"Really? This is what you said."

A cunning look appeared in Yuan Yao's eyes. She tilted her head slightly, her gaze wandering between the huge temptation and the upcoming challenge. In the end, the desire for rare treasures overcame her hesitation.

The opponent is not a strong man in the Huawen realm, but only at the peak of the Half-Step Huawen realm. The difference in cultivation is not an insurmountable chasm, so she may not lose.

"I said so." Li Yuan nodded gently, "Will you choose to challenge the old man with a calm aura, or the old woman who looks peaceful but hides a sharp edge?"

In the deepest part of the cave, Li Yuan was very familiar with the aura of the old man sitting on the ancient wooden chair. When he saw him for the first time, murderous intent surged in his heart.

"I'll choose that old woman." Yuan Yao pointed at the old woman, with a provocative smile on her face, "Old woman, although I don't love killing, I won't show mercy either.

"If you know what's best for you, just leave on your own."

Hearing this, the old woman's face darkened, and a cold light flashed in her eyes: "Where did you come from, you wild girl? How dare you act so presumptuous in front of me when you are only a half-step into the Transformation Realm?

“If you are a disciple of Tianling Mountain, I can give Tianling Mountain some face and let you go.

"But if you insist on seeking death, I don't mind letting Tianling Mountain lose another genius."

The old woman's words were full of the vicissitudes of life and the cruelty of killing, and she did not take Yuan Yao seriously.

Seeing that Yuan Yao was only half a foot tall, she thought she was a celestial being from Tianling Mountain. "You think you can kill me?" Yuan Yao's face turned cold in an instant.

There seemed to be flames burning in those clear eyes. His body stretched out and instantly turned into a blurry shadow and rushed out at a speed so fast that it was astonishing.

She is no longer the innocent girl, but has transformed into a little witch full of fighting spirit and ruthlessness.

"Humph, I gave you a chance, but you didn't know how to cherish it.

"Let me show you my skills."

With a cold snort, the old woman's energy surged throughout her body. Waves of cold air spread out, lowering the temperature of the entire cave by a few degrees.

The old woman suddenly jumped up like an eagle and took off from the ground in an instant.

With a slight twist of his wrist, a long whip as black as ink slipped out from his sleeve like a winding poisonous python.

She quickly formed hand seals with one hand, and ripples appeared in the air. Countless incomplete elemental patterns emerged from the void, flashing dark light, like broken stars, filled with a strange aura.

The old woman swung the whip suddenly, and the shadows of the whip overlapped, like dark clouds in the night, quickly interweaving into a huge net in the air.

Each whip shadow possesses the power of incomplete Yuanwen and can tear the void.

The huge net woven by the whip shadows covered Yuan Yao's seemingly petite figure at lightning speed.

Yuan Yao retreated violently, like a spirit deer shuttling through the woods, trying to avoid the overwhelming attack.

However, those whip shadows carrying incomplete elemental patterns were incredibly fast, following closely like ghosts.

In a flash, the small figure was wrapped in it, trying to pull Yuan Yao into endless darkness.

"It's not even a single blow." The old woman sneered and was about to put the whip back to its original position.

Suddenly, something strange happened. Yuan Yao, who was supposed to be restrained, disappeared out of thin air like a phantom.

The area covered by the whip shadow was empty, leaving only a few wisps of green mist slowly drifting in the air.

The old woman frowned slightly, a hint of suspicion flashed in her wrinkled eyes, and she quickly looked around, trying to find any trace of Yuan Yao in the dark cave.

Light and shadow interweave, and the magic bamboo sways gently in the dim light, making a rustling sound.

Just as the old woman was searching, Yuan Yao's figure quietly emerged behind a huge rock.

She was more than half a foot above the ground, with two silver moon blades suspended in front of her, and thick green mist lingering above the blades.

Each moon blade was more than a foot tall, almost twice her body length. It looked extremely uncoordinated, yet exuded an indescribable aura.

The energy in Yuan Yao's body surged like a river and was injected into the two silver moon blades.

The old woman's steps seemed slow, but in fact they were steady and powerful, and she approached the huge rock silently.

Her eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, as if they could penetrate the barrier of rocks and see Yuan Yao hiding behind them.

With a slight movement of her wrist, the old woman swung the long whip in her hand as flexibly as a living thing. The whip shadow was as black as ink, tightly wrapping around the rock, vowing to force Yuan Yao out of his hiding place.

At the critical moment, Yuan Yao stretched out her body and tapped her little feet in the air.

As if stepping on an invisible staircase, his entire body turned into a stream of green light, dragging two rotating silver moon blades, and instantly flashed dozens of feet away, cleverly avoiding the old woman's attack.

Seeing this, the old woman turned around sharply, and her long whip drew a cruel arc in the air, wrapped in terrifying black energy, and suddenly slashed towards Yuan Yao.

On the long whip, the black energy gathered into a stream, and then transformed into a black giant python hundreds of feet long, with its bloody mouth wide open, biting fiercely towards Yuan Yao's petite figure.

Yuan Yao remained calm and flicked her hands lightly. The two mercury moon blades suddenly spun at high speed, like two silver rings, releasing a dazzling light.

"Chichi-"

The two moon blades drew silver tracks in the air, starting from the head of the black python and rotating all the way to the tail of the snake.

With its sharp blade and amazing speed, it crushed the huge python's body into pieces.

The space was torn apart, and ripples spread in all directions at an alarming speed, shaking the entire cave.

While the ripples in space had not yet completely dissipated, Yuan Yao's little feet tapped the void lightly, and her figure shuttled through the gaps in the Yuan power, hiding her tracks like a ghost.

The next moment, she appeared above the old woman's head. She waved her little hand, and hundreds of slightly transparent four-cornered silver leaves with emerald green light poured out from her palm and bombarded the old woman in an overwhelming manner.

The old woman stomped her feet on the ground suddenly. The ground couldn't bear the force and cracked instantly.

With the help of this reaction force, she slid back twenty or thirty feet, avoiding the overwhelming mercury leaves.

"Shhhh-"

The mercury leaves drew green tracks in the air and dissipated into the void.

Yuan Yao turned lightly in the air, like a leaf dancing in the wind. With a slight twist of her wrist, two silver moon blades were like two silver lightning bolts, cutting through the void, accompanied by a sharp sound of breaking through the air, and she kept bombarding the old woman.

As the moon blade spun, it released a dazzling light, illuminating the surrounding space.

The old woman's face was solemn. She waved the long whip in her hand, and the whip shadow was like a python, trying to block Yuan Yao's attack.

However, Yuan Yao's figure became illusory at this moment, as if it split into several afterimages.

Although the whip was fast, it was unable to capture her true form.

Just when the old woman was having trouble distinguishing the real from the fake, the afterimages suddenly gathered into one, and Yuan Yao's figure became completely solid, appearing in front of the old woman.

The moon blade in her hand spun rapidly, making sharp whistling sounds, like two silver tornadoes, slashing down at the old woman's head.

In a flash, the black soft whip in the old woman's hand suddenly shook and instantly shrank into a four-foot-long hard whip. The black energy surged on it, like a dragon emerging from the sea, stretching across her body.

"Chong-"

The sharp and piercing sound of metal clashing echoed in the cave.

The whip blades collided, generating terrifying energy that swept around like a violent storm.

The magic jade bamboo in the cave swayed violently under the impact of this force, making bursts of rustling sounds.

Both of them were affected by the recoil force and their bodies flew backwards involuntarily.

Each of them drew an arc in the air and finally landed steadily on the ground dozens of feet away.

The ground beneath their feet could not withstand the impact of the force, and deep cracks appeared on it, with gravel flying and dust rising.

The brief pause did not end the battle.

After the energy dissipated, the two men stood up almost at the same time and rushed towards each other again.

Hundreds of feet away, Li Yuan watched the fierce battle between Yuan Yao and the old woman, his heart calm, as if he had already expected this situation.

His gaze quietly shifted to the old man who was sitting like a pine tree in the deepest part of the cave, and a strange and meaningful arc appeared at the corner of his mouth.
