In the depths of the forest.
"This is the place! The surroundings are very quiet. I don't feel that there are any wild beasts here. We need to heal our injuries urgently. Let's hide here first!”Yang Yang said to the two girls.
Bai Su and Duanmu Aoxue nodded.
Then, Yang Yang's gaze fell on the round hole in front of him.
Yang Yang carried Li Siyan, and Bai Su and Duanmu Aoxue followed him to the cave entrance.
There was only a small area of light at the entrance of the cave. It seemed that the light was connected to a deep darkness. There were tiny broken bones. The red flame on the top of the cave floated for a moment, but strangely, there was no light. This red flame seemed to be looking at someone below.
He looked at the darkness and suddenly said to the two girls,"I'll go in and take a look first. Wait for me!”
Bai Su smiled at him.
Yang Yang patted Li Siyan's back and put her down. He took a deep breath and slowly and carefully walked into the cave.
He walked very slowly and carefully. No one knew if there were any more terrifying monsters in this mysterious cave. However, the surroundings were silent. Even after he walked for a while, he did not receive any attacks.
Other than the round hole that had some light, the surroundings were pitch-black. However, after turning a corner in the depths of the darkness, he found something that was emitting a faint light.
Yang Yang felt that there was no fluctuation from the object, so he carefully walked over.
It was a stone platform that was about half the height of a person. It had a diameter of thirty feet and was cylindrical in shape. The entire stone platform was completely different from the rocks in other places. While it emitted a faint heat, the light emitted from the stone platform kept changing its color. It was slightly red, light purple, sometimes light yellow, and sometimes green. It was very beautiful.
On the flat surface of the stone platform, there was a ring-shaped dent with three words carved beside it.
Demon God Bracelet!
Yang Yang's gaze unexpectedly fell on the bracelet. In the middle of the somewhat tattered clothes, the ancient black aura of the bracelet was faintly revealed.
He gently removed the treasure and stared at it for a moment. Then, he placed it into the dent. It was actually flawless.
A moment later, a dull sound came from above. Yang Yang looked down and saw the stone slab on the stone platform slowly retreat with a deep sound, revealing a stone cave.
Almost at the same time, the temperature in the surroundings suddenly rose in an unbelievable manner. The originally cool cave instantly became extremely hot. Against the faint red light, one could even see the blazing fire floating up from the round hole.
This extremely hot energy actually existed in this mysterious cave at the same time!
Yang Yang's face revealed a faint worry. He took the black bracelet back from the stone platform and put it on his wrist. Without saying anything, he slowly faded away.
The surrounding air was getting hotter and hotter, and the heat from the crater seemed to be unable to compare to the heat here. Yang Yang's clothes actually burned into ashes.
There was no light here, but after Yang Yang's eyes slowly discovered the ball of fire, there was a faint red light that spread out from every corner.
It was a fire that had been burning for an unknown number of years, as if it was softly saying something.
He slowly walked forward, and the sound of his footsteps on the hot ground spread out, breaking the seemingly ancient silence.
Suddenly, a deep and slightly surprised, ear-piercing and excited female voice sounded from the depths of the darkness."Are you the master?"
Yang Yang immediately stopped. After a moment, he stared at the deepest part of the darkness in front of him and said slowly,"Master? I'm not!"
The voice was silent for a moment before slowly saying,""Then who are you?"
"Who are you?" Yang Yang asked.”
The red light emitted by the surrounding heat seemed to flash, and the woman's voice fell silent. A moment later, two balls of dim light, like two blood-red pupils, flashed in the deepest part of the darkness, staring at Yang Yang, who was completely glowing.
Finally, it landed on his wrist.
"Where did you get that black bracelet on your wrist?”
Yang Yang's heart skipped a beat, but he did not answer. Instead, the black bracelet on his wrist made a never-before-heard call into the darkness, as if it was calling for something.
The woman moved slightly and said slowly,""That magic treasure on your wrist, is it the Demon God Bracelet? The bracelet crawled all over your body and recognized you as its master?”
Yang Yang's body trembled and his pupils shrank. He said coldly,""Who exactly are you?"
The woman ignored him and continued,"The Heavenly Eye on your forehead has opened, but I can see a red light under the purple light in the Heavenly Eye. It must be because you were washed with the blood of ten thousand people and were invaded by the evil power of the Demon God Bracelet.”
Yang Yang's heart trembled and he was speechless for a moment. He had gradually noticed the abnormality in his body, but now that the mysterious woman had spoken so clearly, he was at a loss.
Instead, the Heavenly Eye on his forehead seemed to be angry. Purple light shot out, and a trace of light jumped out into the darkness.
The woman suddenly laughed and said,""The Heavenly Eye is angry, hehe, so what? We are both born strange creatures. You understand me, and I know you. Why do you have to reject me?”
Yang Yang collected his thoughts and calmed his mind. His eyes gradually turned cold, and his fists gradually glowed with a purple light. He said coldly,"If you don't show yourself, don't blame me for being impolite!”
"No!"
Suddenly, the woman's voice became sharp and high-pitched, as if she had suddenly thought of something. There was a hint of excitement in her voice.
"No, no matter how high your cultivation is, only…only gods in the universe can open this seal. What cultivation technique do you cultivate?”
At the end of his sentence, as if reflecting his excited voice, the hot red light around Yang Yang instantly lit up.
Yang Yang frowned, but before he could react, a pair of faint eyes in the darkness seemed to see through his entire body.
The woman's voice was filled with hope, surprise, joy, excitement, and a trace of desolation.
"You actually have the Soul Cultivation Divine Art? Lord Yin God? Lord Yin God! Is this the will of the heavens?"
She let out a long howl as if she had lost her mind. Deep in the darkness of the cave, a red light suddenly exploded. Countless shadows danced under the faint red light, moving uneasily between the darkness and the light.
A figure flew out of the darkness, but it also seemed to have come from the ancient desolation. It was as huge as a demon, dancing in this space.
Yang Yang was stunned. Even if he saw something ferocious and terrifying, he was mentally prepared. However, when he saw the figure in front of him, he was still stunned.
Behind that figure, flames danced like a nightmare.
Yang Yang said slowly, slowly, in a hoarse voice,""Flaming Skeleton!"
…………
The Greater Universe was vast and boundless. Other than the people who were known as the spirits of all living things, there were countless others who were born together with humans in this world. For example, poultry such as chickens, ducks, pigs, and dogs, and wild animals such as wolves, tigers, and leopards were all commonly known to people.
Since ancient times, there had been many strange legends circulating in the world. In the universe, there were some ancient spiritual beasts and prehistoric mutants in the desolate and remote places. For thousands of years, countless righteous people who traveled across mountains and rivers to capture dragons and demons talked about it with relish.
In these many legends, the skeleton race might not be the most ferocious and powerful evil creatures, but there was no doubt that they were the most terrifying, unimaginable, and terrifying in the eyes of the world.
When ancient beasts such as the Flaming Phoenix became the target of people to prove their cultivation strength, skeletons often seemed to carry a trace of disgust in people's mouths. Although there had always been legends of skeletons reviving and drinking human blood, unlike other monster legends, the skeleton race often left fear in people's hearts. This was a very prominent and strange thing in the legends of various monsters that harmed the human world.
Of course, these were only rumors spread among the common people. In the eyes of true cultivators, the skeleton race was a group of dead creatures without intelligence. Their strength was far inferior to the incredible ancient beasts like the flaming phoenix. Legend had it that when they cultivated to a certain level, their intelligence would be greatly developed, and the skeleton race would actually have the ability to summon the dead creatures in the special ability space.
Among the Skeleton Clan, there was a mysterious branch. It was said that as their cultivation increased, the flames on their heads would continue to grow. After a hundred years of cultivation, they would grow an inch. They were called the Demon Skeletons. A thousand-year-old cultivator with a foot of cultivation would become a spiritual skeleton. When the flame reached ten feet, it was already the supreme realm of the demons in the world. No one knew how many years it would take to reach this level. However, according to legends, the flame that reached ten feet was already a peerless demon with divine power. It was called the "Skeleton Master"!
It was just that this legend was too magical. Most people did not know about it, but in Yang Yang's heart, it was like a clear mirror. It was not for anything else, but for the first time in his life that his firm belief was impacted by the skeleton's figure in the underworld after his death.
Every night, she would dream of going back to hell, and she could vaguely see the lonely figures.
Rays of red light shone from the red-hot flames, illuminating the cave. In front of Yang Yang, from the deepest part of the darkness, a huge figure slowly appeared in the faint red light that had a strange glow.
A skeleton, a huge skeleton!
This was the first time Yang Yang had seen such a huge skeleton in his life. From where he was standing, the skeleton was twice as tall as him. It was as tall as three people. Under the red flames, the milky white skeleton was like snow and jade, like the most beautiful sculpture in the world.
This was a wondrous object that made people feel beautiful at a glance. However, its body was so huge that it unconsciously felt a little terrifying. In fact, this skeleton was currently in an extremely agitated state.
The originally silent space was now filled with the skeleton's tears of joy. The pair of deep red eyes embedded in the flames were also filled with madness.
The red light became brighter and brighter, and a wind had started to blow. Yang Yang's entire body seemed to be engulfed by a heatwave. The flaming skeleton let out a hiss and suddenly lifted its front foot off the ground. It actually straightened up. Almost at the same time as its movements, Yang Yang felt the heat around him boil. Amidst the roar, two huge flaming rocks that were as tall as three people moved out of thin air and smashed fiercely towards Yang Yang.
Yang Yang frowned. Purple light shone from his fist as he retreated. Almost at the same time as his figure disappeared, two huge rocks collided with a deafening sound and turned into flames that scattered on the ground.
However, before he could stop, all the stones in the cave that were emitting a red light lit up at the same time. In an instant, the strange demonic power in this space flourished. Countless stones of different sizes slowly floated to the side, and a vortex that looked like a black hole appeared.
Yang Yang's brows furrowed even more tightly. This Skeleton Lord's demonic power was indeed extremely strong. Over the years, he had encountered all kinds of demon spirits and strange beasts. Other than the incredible ancient beast like the Flaming Phoenix, this Flaming Lord was the strongest.
However, just as he was hesitating, the Flame Sovereign let out a sharp howl. In an instant, the vortex in the sky seemed to have been mysteriously commanded, and a bone snake rushed out.
The snake was ten feet long and only had a skeleton. Its eyes were glowing with a faint red light as it stared at Yang Yang.
Yang Yang's expression turned cold. He clenched his fist and shot out a purple light. In an instant, the bone snake charged at Yang Yang, and the sound of collision was endless. In that split second, countless red lights chased after the flaming figure.
The Skeleton Lord's shriek became even more intense. However, for some reason, it sounded like it was lacking in energy amidst its anger. In the midst of the intense battle, Yang Yang suddenly flashed and somehow passed through the bone snake, charging towards the Skeleton Lord.
The Skeleton Lord was shocked. It waved its upper limbs and was about to use some kind of strange spell. Unexpectedly, a black light suddenly rose from behind it. Almost at the same time, the skeleton shook as if it had been hit hard. The flames in its eyes became chaotic. In a moment, all the demonic power dissipated. The bone snake disappeared immediately. The Skeleton Lord's body actually collapsed.
In the next moment, Yang Yang's figure floated over. A pale hand reached out from the light and grabbed at the Skeleton Master's head.
The Skeleton Master let out a low cry. Its eyes were filled with pain and helplessness. However, from its expression, it closed its flaming eyes as if it had accepted its fate and was waiting for death.
Behind the skeleton, it suddenly let out a few low cries and revealed a small head with flames.
Yang Yang silently looked at the Skeleton Lord's back and slowly retracted his hand. He understood why the Skeleton Lord wanted to attack him.
The Skeleton Supremacy slowly opened its eyes. What entered its sight was the figure of the man standing in front of it.
Six pairs of eyes stared at each other!
It was unknown when the little flaming head had crawled to Yang Yang's feet again. It blinked its eyes and looked at Yang Yang, then at the Skeleton Lord on the ground. It raised its little bone foot and kicked Yang Yang fiercely. After kicking him a few times, it realized that it was useless. It sat on the ground and casually picked up a few rocks to play with.
The Skeleton Lord looked at the little head and returned to Yang Yang. After a moment, he said,""Why didn't you kill me?"
It sounded like it had calmed down. Yang Yang didn't answer immediately. He looked at the little skeleton and soon found what he had guessed.
A dark-red chain as thick as an ordinary person's arm was chained to the Skeleton Lord's lower limbs. At this moment, one could see a faint red glow from the chain. Even from afar, one could feel the strange magic power.
Just now, the Skeleton Lord had suddenly lost its strength in the middle of an intense battle. Clearly, this restriction had taken effect. It wasn't strange. If it wasn't for such a powerful restriction, how could this small cave trap the legendary Skeleton Lord with its peerless demonic power?
The Skeleton Lord looked at Yang Yang. Yang Yang did not answer its question, and it did not seem to mind because it cared about something else.
"Xiao Xin, come over to Mommy's side to play. Don't run around.”Its voice sounded low and tired.
Yang Yang was silent. After a while, he slowly said,"Is this your child?"
The Skeleton Lord's huge body shook slightly and nodded.
"Where is his father?" Yang Yang's voice wasn't loud, but he asked clearly.
" During the great war between the Demon Gods, his father and I were the subordinates of the Grim Reaper. At that time, we were just spiritual skeletons who had cultivated for a thousand years…" The Skeleton Lord's expression was as calm as water as he calmly recounted the past. For a moment, the huge space was silent. Only his voice drifted gently. Occasionally, the sound of Xiao Xin playing beside him could be heard.
"…In the final battle, his father and many of his brothers were killed by the Celestial Thearch with a single technique. I wanted revenge, but the Yin God found out that I was pregnant with Xiao Xin, so he imprisoned me here.”The Skeleton Lord couldn't help but shed tears that belonged to skeletons.
The surroundings were so quiet that it was as if they were dead. Yang Yang looked at the skeleton in front of him and suddenly felt suffocated.
Yang Yang watched as the Skeleton Lord slowly walked into the depths of the darkness. Suddenly, he felt an inexplicable impulse and blurted out,""Are you testing my cultivation level and hoping that I can help you with something?”
The Skeleton Lord's body froze, but it did not turn around. However, its voice suddenly had a hint of excitement,""Are you willing to help me?"
Yang Yang nodded.
The Skeleton Lord slowly turned around. At this moment, its deep eyes suddenly seemed to glow with a strange light.
"Three hundred years ago, I gave birth to Xiao Xin. I was imprisoned in this cave, and my magic power was suppressed by this chain, suffering day and night.”
The Skeleton Lord continued," It's rare for us skeletons to give birth to skeletons. We are skeleton mutants, but we need to be pregnant for hundreds of millions of years because it's not easy to be pregnant with a dead creature. I hope that Xiao Xin can avenge his father in the future."
Yang Yang didn't say anything. His expression was as calm as water.
A moment later, the Skeleton Lord's eyes were filled with disappointment. He suddenly smiled bitterly and said softly,""You're willing to let Xiao Xin acknowledge you as his master? If he was unwilling, then forget it. In fact, who in this world was willing to be with a dead thing?”
As it spoke, it seemed to turn around again, but Yang Yang suddenly moved.
He slowly walked forward and walked past the Skeleton Lord. Xiao Xin, who was behind him, raised his head and seemed to be interested in Yang Yang again. He jumped over quickly and jumped onto Yang Yang's shoulder. He bit Yang Yang's shoulder and Yang Yang felt a sense of intimacy with Xiao Xin.
"Young man, your future is limitless. Why do you want to help a dead thing?”the Skeleton Lord said faintly.
Xiao Xin blinked and squeaked. At the same time, he grabbed Yang Yang's hair.
Because I was once a monster.
The Skeleton Sovereign Lord smiled indifferently. His laughter was filled with sadness.
" Little Xin, you have just gained intelligence. From now on, you will follow Master. Remember to come back to see Mommy when you have time. Take care of your body when you are outside…" Skeleton Master kept telling Little Skeleton and Little Xin.
Poor parents!
As the Skeleton Supremacy continued to nag, Yang Yang brought the three women into the cave.
At first, the three women were also shocked when they woke up. After Yang Yang told them what happened in the cave, they gradually became less afraid of Little Skeleton and Little Xin. They began to play with Little Skeleton, but they were still a little afraid of Skeleton Lord and kept a respectful distance.
