章 344: Chapter 344: Spirit Bone
…
Boom~
As the giant palm of the heavens descended, the thunderous sound resonated through the sky, causing the ground to tremble.
Dust filled the air, leaves scattered all around, and at the center of oppression, a large pit formed on the ground while the miserable cries that rang out dissipated and turned into smoke.
The chaotic scene suddenly became quiet, with numerous fallen trees, scattered bushes, crisscrossing gullies, and disturbed soil, appearing as if a raging storm had passed through.
Within the large pit at the center, clear water flowed, converging at the lowest point and transforming into a small blood-red pool. Within the pool, there were some nauseating unidentified objects floating on its surface.
In the messy area, a figure appeared out of thin air as if he walked out of a void.
Bone Douluo, Gu Rong, ignored the little Spirit Saint he had crushed to death with his palm and immediately flashed to the side of Zeng Yi.
~Cough Cough~
Zeng Yi struggled to stand up from the ground, coughing lightly a few times, blood overflowing from his mouths.
The Martial Spirit, Ronin Sword, had already dissipated. Zeng Yi tightly gripped the Bamboo Sword with both hands, supporting his battered and broken body.
"You're so slow to arrive." Zeng Yi sensed someone standing behind him and knew exactly who it was. Although Zeng Yi was the disciple of Sword Douluo, in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Zeng Yi had encountered Gu Rong, also known as Bone Douluo, who was his master's rival, several times. Zeng Yi was familiar with his aura.
Combined with the previous sound of fear and the miserable screams, Zeng Yi could confirm that the Spirit Saint who was chasing after him had been killed by Gu Rong. The Spirit Skill that controlled Zeng Yi's five senses should have also been released.
Therefore, the Bone Douluo standing behind him should be real.
Yes, Zeng Yi had anticipated this outcome long ago.
Zeng Yi wasn't foolish; he wouldn't jump into such an obvious trap without preparation.
He had a clear understanding of his own strength. Zeng Yi was currently at the Level 45 rank Spirit Ancestor. He considered all Spirit Masters of the same level to be nothing. With powerful passive skills, the unique nature of his own Spirit Skill, various sword techniques, and his Sword Realm, Zeng Yi didn't think anyone at the Spirit Ancestor level could defeat him.
As for Spirit Kings, Zeng Yi had killed several of them. Although they were relatively weak, there were Spirit Kings with a spirit power Level 56 who had been slain by Zeng Yi. Therefore, Zeng Yi believed that with his current strength, he could confidently defeat even the most top-notch Spirit King.
As for Spirit Emperors, Zeng Yi had also killed one when he just broke through to the Spirit Ancestor level. However, to kill that Spirit Emperor, Zeng Yi had exhausted all his means.
But as for Spirit Saints, Zeng Yi had battled against Lui Erlong, a Spirit Saint with a spirit power Level 79, and even without using his Martial Spirit True Body, she had left him in a severely injured state. Therefore, Zeng Yi didn't think he could defeat a Spirit Saint going all out, even though his spirit power was at the Level 71.
Of course, Auxiliary System Spirit Saints were an exception.
So, when he fell for the illusion, at the moment he voluntarily jumped into this trap, Zeng Yi released an overwhelming sword aura to attract Gu Rong's attention.
Zeng Yi must make sure that this person who could peek into his secrets died, regardless of his strength or identity. Even if he wasn't his match, even if it meant his own death. However, as long as Gu Rong arrived, then the one who would die was still the other party.
Gu Rong's strength was the strongest in the entire Heaven Dou City, and his purpose for coming to the city was not only to protect Ning Fengzhi's safety but also to keep a constant eye on anyone who might have ill intentions towards Zeng Yi.
That's why, when Gu Rong sensed the sword aura released by Zeng Yi, he immediately rushed over to find out what was happening.
After Gu Rong appeared, he saw the severely injured and dying appearance of Zeng Yi, instantly becoming furious.
Despite being jealous that Cheng Xin had the lucky chance to receive such a good disciple, Gu Rong still treated Zeng Yi very well, considering that Zeng Yi was also his nephew.
Under his care, Zeng Yi was still in such a dangerous state, and if Cheng Xin were to find out, Gu Rong would be ashamed.
Out of fury, without even bothering to inquire about the small Spirit Saint who had injured Zeng Yi, Gu Rong raised his hand and slapped him into mush.
"And you still have the mood to complain? Rest your body immediately!" Gu Rong saw Zeng Yi's miserable appearance and immediately imparted spirit power into Zeng Yi's body, helping him circulate his blood and stabilize his current condition, stopping Zeng Yi's injuries from spreading further.
As the surging spirit power entered his body, assisting in regulating blood circulation, a rosy tint appeared on Zeng Yi's pale face. However, the wound on his chest, the sinister claw mark that tore his flesh, bled profusely. Even his white rib bones could be seen.
"What's happened to your eyes?" Gu Rong approached Zeng Yi's front, shocked by Zeng Yi's miserable state. Zeng Yi's pale face was bleeding from the seven orifices, and blood seeped from the tightly shut eyelids. Zeng Yi couldn't even open his eyes.
And regarding his chest wound, the ominous claw mark had torn the skin apart, blood pouring, and one could even see the pale ribs.
"They're not working properly." Zeng Yi said with a bitter smile.
Hearing this, Gu Rong became even more worried, and even anxious. Although he was a Titled Douluo, he wasn't a healing Spirit Master. At this moment, he could only help stabilize Zeng Yi's injuries, but he couldn't heal such severe wounds.
Given his current condition, Gu Rong admired Zeng Yi's strong will to persist. What surprised him even more was that he could engage in such an intense battle against a Spirit Saint and even severely injure them, even though he himself was heavily injured.
Fortunately, Zeng Yi held on until he arrived; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Several minutes later, with Gu Rong's help, Zeng Yi felt his condition improve slightly and said, "Senior Uncle, go and check that person's corpse."
"Just a pile of mud, what's there to see?" Gu Rong said, extending his spirit power to probe Zeng Yi's body.
Sensing the bottom of the pit, Gu Rong's face showed surprise. According to reason, his palm should have crushed that Spirit Saint, and even his spatial spirit tool should have been crushed to dust, with everything inside dissipating as well.
However, Gu Rong sensed movement in the blood pool.
Guided by Gu Rong's spirit power, a stream of light emerged from the pool and fell into Gu Rong's hands.
Taking a look, a look of astonishment appeared on Gu Rong's face as he held a dazzling Spirit Bone in his palm. The surface shone like a gem, reflecting splendid colors under the sunlight.
As a Titled Douluo, Gu Rong could recognize it at a glance; it was a Spirit Bone, a Skull Spirit Bone to be exact. Judging by the emitted spirit power fluctuations, Gu Rong speculated that this Spirit Bone was at the level of 10,000 years.
Such a Spirit Bone, not to mention ordinary Spirit Masters, even a Titled Douluo would be envious. After all, having an additional Spirit Bone meant having an additional spirit skill, greatly enhancing one's strength.
Even Gu Rong, as a Rank 95 Titled Douluo, only had two Spirit Bones. Moreover, he didn't have this Skull Spirit Bone.
Looking at this Spirit Bone, Gu Rong's eyes narrowed, then glanced at Zeng Yi, a smile appearing on his lips as he thought of something.
Subsequently, Gu Rong reappeared in front of Zeng Yi, looking quite amiable as he extended the Spirit Bone in front of him.
"Xiao Yi, you've had a hard time today, so I'll give you this Spirit Bone. However, there's a small request from your grandpa. Can you promise me?"
"What request?" Zeng Yi looked at Gu Rong with some confusion.
Gu Rong leaned closer to Zeng Yi and spoke in a low voice.
"Well, for today's matter, don't let your master know."
Hearing this, Zeng Yi felt speechless and reached out his hand without any politeness, placing the Spirit Bone into his own storage-type spirit item.
He thought this old man had something important to bring up, but it turned out to be this?
After Zeng Yi put away the Spirit Bone, Gu Rong's expression suddenly became serious, and he turned his gaze towards a certain direction within the forest.
"Who is it? Come out!"
Gu Rong coldly snorted. At a time like this, anyone who appeared here was unlikely to have good intentions, so his tone was anything but courteous.
Zeng Yi also shifted his gaze over.
Just as Gu Rong's voice fell, a figure walked out from that direction.
"Old Xue? Why are you here?" Feeling the aura of Xue Qinghe, Zeng Yi was somewhat surprised.
The one who came was Xue Qinghe, who had followed the sword aura released by Zeng Yi to find him.
Gu Rong also recognized this Crown Prince of Heaven Dou and, upon seeing him, withdrew the released momentum.
"Zeng Yi! What happened? Your injuries?" Xue Qinghe anxiously ran to Zeng Yi's side, looking at the shocking wounds on his body, becoming overwhelmed.
"Who did this?" Xue Qinghe became furious, releasing a strong aura.
Having glanced at Xue Qinghe, Gu Rong was somewhat surprised by this aura.
It seemed that this Crown Prince also couldn't be underestimated.
Looking at Xue Qinghe, Gu Rong murmured in his heart.
Feeling Xue Qinghe's anger, Zeng Yi let out a bitter smile. "They're all dead, how would I know who did this?"
For some reason, when Xue Qinghe released such an aura, Zeng Yi felt it was somewhat familiar, as if he had encountered it somewhere before.
He never knew that Xue Qinghe possessed such strength. From this aura alone, one could see that Xue Qinghe's strength was not inferior to his own.
