Su Yu's arrival naturally attracted their attention.
Star Maiden's eyes lit up and she ran over with a smile. "Leader Su, what a coincidence!"
It was indeed a coincidence!
Su Yu nodded slightly and looked her in the eye.
They had a tacit understanding and did not mention each other's identities.
"Another pirate!" Beside the forest, there were three Path Masters and three young men.
Their faces were unfamiliar, so they should be strong Path Masters other than the first, second, and sixth families.
Of course, they did not know Su Yu.
Perhaps they had heard of his name, but they might not know him.
Su Yu ignored them and came to the edge of the Million Bone Forest.
Looking closely, he found that the Million Bone Forest did not only have a few giant bones in the distance. In the forest, the ground was densely packed with sharp bones of different sizes.
They were like bamboo shoots, emerging from the depths of the ground.
What was shocking was that right in front of him, a thousand feet into the forest, there were three bloody corpses.
Their heads were either pierced through by bone spikes or their chests. Their bodies were suspended thousands of feet in the air, dripping blood that had yet to dry.
Combined with the endless bone spikes in the Million Bone Forest, it was frightening.
"The bone spikes inside are living creatures." Star Maiden only said one sentence. Her beautiful eyes were filled with seriousness.
After she came to the Heavenly Legacy Cave, she happened to meet an extremely rare divine beast in the outside world, whose level was no lower than the Heaven Extinguishing Lion.
Therefore, she immediately started to chase it.
During the chase, the people of the families also noticed it and joined in the fight.
In the end, the divine beast broke into the Million Bone Forest.
Among them, a Path Master of a family, who thought his cultivation was good, broke in with two juniors.
It was nothing when they first entered, but when they were ten thousand feet in, densely packed bone spikes emerged from the ground out of nowhere.
Although the Path Master tried his best to escape with his people, the bone spikes became sharper the further they went. Even the Path Master's domain could not resist them.
In the end, they ended up in front of them.
All three of them were pierced by the bone spikes and died with their eyes wide open.
Su Yu was thinking about the notes in the Agile Concubine's hands. In the notes, there was a way to travel safely in the Million Bone Forest.
The only way was that there was no way!
Unless one's physique was strong enough to not fear the bone spikes, no one could enter.
"The two pirate friends over there." Among the six people from the aristocratic family, an old woman in red walked over and greeted them with a pleasant countenance.
Su Yu nodded. "Do you have any advice for me?"
The old woman in red smiled and said, "Since we're all in the Heavenly Legacy Cavern, I think we can put aside our identities and work together to enter and take a look. What do you think?"
Su Yu was very curious as to what kind of divine beast they were chasing.
One of their Daolords had already died, but they still had to take the risk.
He glanced at Star Maiden out of the corner of his eye. This woman was probably hiding something from him.
"Of course we can cooperate. Please tell us your plan." Su Yu shared Xiao Die's vision, and he could vaguely see a faint blue light ball. It should be a Doctrine Artifact.
How could he miss this opportunity?
The old woman in red let out a sigh of relief and said, "I have a treasure called the Heart of Eight Desolation. Once it's used, it will create an extremely powerful defense. We've tried it before, but even the Patriarch was unable to destroy it in one strike."
It sounded like the level of the magic treasure was quite high.
It should be a Dao artifact, right?
"Since you have such a powerful magic treasure, why are you looking for us?" Su Yu asked.
In fact, Su Yu had already guessed it from the name of the magic treasure.
"The Heart of Eight Desolation needs to be controlled by eight strong men who are at least Half Daolords. Only then can it be invulnerable. Even one less person will expose a flaw."
Upon hearing that, Star Maiden's eyes flickered slightly, but she looked at Su Yu, as if she was ready to listen to him.
The old woman in red watched this scene without batting an eyelid.
Su Yu naturally had no reason to refuse.
"Sure!"
The old woman in red let out a relaxed smile and took out a bronze plate. The words of a seal were engraved on it.
"This is the method to control the Heart of Eight Desolation. Mister Su, please familiarize yourself with this Star Maiden."
The method to control it wasn't difficult. She just had to instill the Desolation Power into a certain spot in the Heart of Eight Desolation according to the normal force and frequency.
After a few attempts, the old woman in red took out a bronze ball.
It was only the size of a palm, but when she blew on it, the bronze ball expanded a hundred times.
It was just enough to accommodate eight people.
Eight rings appeared on the surface of the bronze ball, each ring larger than the last.
Each ring was larger than the last, like the eight orbits of a star, tightly protecting the innermost sphere.
The eight people entered it.
Each of them occupied a spot with a crystal stone tablet.
"Remember, you mustn't stop midway. Otherwise, you'll expose a flaw, and those bone spurs will take advantage of it," the old woman in red reminded them.
She was mainly saying this for Su Yu and Star Maiden.
The other five people didn't change their expressions.
Although their expressions didn't change, their eyes were filled with deep worry and aversion.
If it wasn't necessary, they wouldn't choose Su Yu and Star Maiden, the two pirates.
"Begin!" the old woman in red shouted in a low voice.
The eight people instilled their power into the stone tablet in front of them at the same time, and the eight rings around the bronze ball started rotating at a slow speed.
The iron rings' trajectories were all different, and they revolved around the sphere ceaselessly.
When they reached a high speed, the eight iron rings formed an impenetrable afterimage that protected the whole bronze ball.
At such a high speed, it would be difficult for even a family master to break through it.
"Everyone, don't panic!" the old woman in red said. "With the defensive power of the Eight Desolation Heart, it shouldn't be a problem!"
They nodded and immediately started moving forward.
The bronze ball entered the Forest of Myriad Bones as it revolved in eight different trajectories.
At first, it was quiet, and the bone spurs around it didn't move at all.
However, just as they had said, when they reached a hundred thousand feet …
A strange scene appeared. The densely packed bone spurs in the vicinity were like white snakes, and they shot out sharply and rapidly.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
In an instant, the dense sound of a rainstorm hitting a pond could be heard from the trajectory of the bronze ball.
Everyone's heart skipped a beat when they heard this, and they instantly lost their confidence.
These bone spurs were terrifying objects that could penetrate a Path Master's body.
There were eight of them, and if one of them was careless, all of them would die.
Fortunately, it was just as the old woman in red had said, and the Eight Desolation Heart successfully withstood it.
The old woman's face was still filled with nervousness, and she said, "Stay calm. Let's continue."
Just like that, the group of people continued moving forward.
However, the deeper they went, the sharper the bone spurs became, and the larger they became.
Even if they couldn't pierce through the Eight Desolation Heart, they still knocked the bronze ball around, causing them to lose all sense of direction.
After many huge impacts, the problem that they were worried about finally came!
The outermost ring had almost taken more than half of the attacks.
After being attacked by a huge bone spur, it finally let out a whimper, unable to bear the burden.
That was a sign that it was about to break!
The whimper was like an iron nail, piercing into the hearts of everyone present.
A flaw had finally appeared in their calm hearts.
"I don't want to die." The youngest of them, a three-eyed man, had panic in his eyes.
There were already people who couldn't take it anymore!
Su Yu secretly frowned, but he didn't panic. If the Eight Desolation Heart couldn't work, he could still rely on the Upper Tier Heavenly Dragon Body to force his way through.
Although it would be much more dangerous, it was more than enough to save his life.
"Don't panic …" the old woman in red said, intending to calm the people of the Dark House.
Crack!
However, at that moment, a huge bone spur that was a thousand feet thick and a million feet long pierced out of the ground without warning, piercing the Eight Desolation Heart.
The entire Eight Desolation Heart was knocked from the ground into the sky above the Forest of Thousands of Bones.
The outermost ring finally lost control and broke with a crack.
The twisted and broken ring slowly came to a stop.
As soon as it stopped, the seventh ring was exposed, and it was immediately attacked like a storm.
Moreover, because it had lost the protection of the first ring.
Many bone spurs finally succeeded in attacking the bronze ball itself.
Hearing the loud roar outside, everyone's hearts became more and more flustered!
Especially the three-eyed man, his palms were constantly trembling, and even the power of desolation he released became intermittent and extremely unstable.
Bang!
Finally, after experiencing thousands of attacks, the seventh ring could not withstand it and broke on the spot.
The bronze ball itself suffered even more attacks.
"Ah! I don't want to die, I don't want to die yet! " The three-eyed man roared in despair. The power of desolation in his body was out of control, and he could not infuse it into the ring in time.
Because of that, the sixth ring suddenly stopped rotating.
The other five rings, which were already unable to withstand the pressure, suddenly felt the pressure multiply, and continuously emitted a humming sound.
Pa!
Finally, the bronze ball could not withstand the attacks, and was pierced by a bone spur.
Coincidentally, the direction that the bone spur pierced was where the three-eyed man was.
He was pierced on the spot, and was taken away by the bone spur.
In the vast sky, the screams of the three-eyed man as he hurriedly flew into the distance …
With his death, everyone in the bronze ball panicked.
The power of desolation that was infused into the bronze ball showed signs of instability.
Because of that, the remaining five rings became slightly sluggish.
At the moment of sluggishness, the sky was filled with bone spurs that attacked like a storm, and the five rings were completely destroyed.
The bronze ball was finally completely exposed to the bone spurs.
Bang, bang, bang —
The densely packed bone spurs pierced into the bronze ball, giving off a dull sound like frying beans.
The surface of the bronze ball was visibly dented with the naked eye.
Before long, the entire bronze ball would be completely squashed!
The red-robed old woman's face was deathly pale. She had overestimated the Heart of Desolation, and underestimated the Forest of Ten Thousand Bones!
Now, there was no way forward, and no way back, she was in a dilemma!
Unless, a miracle descended.
But, a miracle would not appear.
Boom —
With a loud sound, finally, one of the directions could not withstand the barrage of attacks, and a large hole the size of three people was blasted open on the bronze ball.
Hundreds of bone spurs pierced in like lightning.
The two closest Daolords did not even have time to resist before they were pierced like porcupines and taken away.
After this wave of bone spurs was pushed out, hundreds and thousands of bone spurs pierced in again.
The red-robed old woman's old eyes reflected a despairing white color …
