伊人久久伊人

Chapter 590 - White Bone Corpse Demon

Xiao Zhen said with a grave expression, “I’m afraid something big has happened on the ghost mountain. The cloud and mist shrouding it have changed, showing faces of vengeful spirits.”

Chen Fan’s gaze also shifted to the distant ghost mountain.

Ever since he had arrived on the island, he had been sensing something ominous from the ghost mountain, especially during nighttime. It felt as if something dreadful resided there, releasing roars that shook the souls of everyone here.

Those eerie roars that didn’t seem to come from any living creature had frightened them. But as time passed and nothing came from the mountain, the group gradually grew accustomed to them.

Now, when the hundred-day trial was nearing its end, something huge happened on the ghost mountain. A feeling of unease enveloped the entire Hidden Dragon Island.

“You said before that Xuanyuan Po and the others have gone exploring the ghost mountain. Could it be that they ascended and accidentally triggered the lingering powers from the great battle, causing these drastic changes?” Chen Fan said, his brow deeply furrowed. The joy from his breakthrough was swiftly replaced by a sense of foreboding.

At their cultivation level, they could already vaguely sense the shifts in fortune, both good and bad.

The ghost mountain had undergone a huge change, one that didn’t bode well. It stirred a deep unease as if a great calamity was imminent.

This sense of foreboding was incredibly strong.

While those with lower cultivation levels might only faintly perceive that something big was about to happen, experts like Chen Fan and Xiao Zhen were highly attuned to the changes in heaven and earth. After all, they were close to reaching the Divine Nascent realm.

In the Divine Nascent realm, martial artists would have given birth to a divine nascent within, connecting with heaven and earth. They would become very sensitive to the changes in their surroundings. Although they were still not in the Divine Nascent realm at present, they could already sense such things.

Chen Fan’s Myriad Elephants Divine Art had advanced to the fifteenth layer, so he could take on a Divine Nascent realm expert by relying on his physical strength. Yet, he felt a strong sense of crisis.

“This doesn’t make sense,” Xiao Zhen said, shaking his head. “Even if someone triggered the residual power on the ghost mountain, it shouldn’t have caused such a drastic change.”

Dangers were everywhere on the Hidden Dragon Island, especially in those ruins. These places harbored the lingering energies of battles fought by experts three thousand years ago. A single strike could leave one severely injured at best or dead at worst.

Incidents like this were not uncommon. In fact, they had occurred many times before.

“Hmm... Let’s go take a look at the ghost mountain.” Chen Fan did not say much and quickly moved. He spread the Wings of Rain Dragon and flew toward the ghost mountain.

......

Below the ghost mountain, countless figures were gripped by fear and unease.

Just moments ago, these people were excited about the prospect of setting foot on the ghost mountain, hoping to uncover some treasures.

But now, with the sudden and drastic changes erupting on the mountain, uneasiness swept over them like a heavy, suffocating blanket.

“Li Yao, you’ve already advanced into the Divine Nascent realm. Your divine nascent is connected to heaven and earth, so you should be able to sense the change around you, right? Do you know what happened on the ghost mountain?” Xuanyuan Po asked with a grave expression.

These top geniuses were now all in the nine-revolution Golden Core realm, just a step away from the Divine Nascent realm. Despite being so close, the gap between the two realms was vast.

Now that the ghost mountain had undergone a drastic change, it filled them with anxiety and fear, as if they were facing imminent catastrophe.

Li Yao closed his eyes, a light emanating from the acupuncture point at his glabella. He was communicating with heaven and earth with his divine soul to sense its changes.

He soon opened his eyes, his expression grave, and said, “The magnetic field on the ghost mountain is very strange. It’s already disrupted the mysteries of heaven in this area, and I have no way to perceive what exactly is happening up there...”

Before he could finish his sentence, a burst of rumbling noises rang out all of a sudden, as if an army of thousands was storming down the ghost mountain.

Li Yao’s expression immediately changed drastically, and he shouted, “Not good, something is rushing down, on guard!”

Clank...

Everyone drew their weapons at once, looking as if a great enemy was upon them, staring fixedly above the ghost mountain.

Soon, the situation became clear, and they collectively gasped, feeling as though their very souls had been shaken.

Descending from the mountain was an army of white bone corpse demons.

These entities were an amalgamation of various bones, unlike reanimated corpses that had developed intelligence by absorbing the vengeful qi of heaven and earth to become skeletal jiangshi.

Instead, these white-bone corpse demons were composites from different individuals\' bones. Ghostly flames flickered in their eye sockets, and vengeful spirits resided in their foreheads.

Li Yao immediately recognized them and roared, “Not good, these are white bone corpse spirits. They are formed from various people’s bones and are occupied by vengeful spirits. They possess incredibly terrifying power!”

As the son of Emperor Li, he was very knowledgeable.

“Damn it, why are white bone corpse demons being created? This is impossible! Who awakened the vengeful spirits and evil spirits on the ghost mountain?” Li Yao cried out, his eyes trembling.

He understood that these white-bone corpse demons couldn\'t have formed on their own. Someone must have roused the souls of these resentful and malevolent spirits, giving birth to these monstrosities.

“Kakakaka, such delicious flesh, such delicious souls.”

“Come on, join us and become white-bone corpse demons. We’ll form an army of corpse demons and break through all obstacles. Sweep through the Tianwu Continent with us and conquer the world.”

“Hahaha, kill, kill these preys. Devour their flesh and souls. Turn them into one of us.”

“I’m still missing a sternum, kaka, very good, these bones are the best materials. I’ll take their sternum and fill it on my body.”

“......”

The white bone corpse demons rushed down. When they saw Li Yao and the others, they immediately let out weird, chilling cries.

Li Yao’s expression turned cold, and he said, “Prepare for battle, kill!”

As he gave the command, he immediately took the lead and charged.

As he grabbed at the empty air, heaven and earth rumbled. He mobilized the primeval qi of heaven and earth in the surroundings, transforming it into a huge hand that covered the sky, sweeping over.

Rumble!

The massive hand crashed down as if trying to crush the heavens themselves. The leading white-bone corpse demons were instantly obliterated under this force, their bones shattering into fragments. The vengeful and evil spirits within them were utterly destroyed.

With this single sweep, Li Yao cleared a wide area, demonstrating the formidable power of a Nascent realm expert.
