The bottom of the cold pond was deathly still. There were no mysterious creatures or corpses on the surrounding stone walls. There was only an intact human skeleton sitting cross-legged at the center of the pond. It was pitch black and had no aura. However, it seemed to be the master of this place. Nothing dared to approach it!
Wutian and the other two stared at the skeleton. They could clearly see the shock in their eyes.
"How is this possible? The mysterious power that robbed us of our vitality came from it!" Cang Zheng said in disbelief.
The mysterious power at the bottom of the cold pond was unprecedentedly strong. Wutian could only feel his vitality rapidly draining away. His originally healthy body became emaciated in a few breaths' time. Waves of dizziness hit him like a tidal wave!
Moreover, the three of them were shocked to discover that the stolen vitality was being absorbed by the skeleton at the bottom of the cold pond!
"We have to think of a way quickly. Otherwise, we will be sucked dry in just a few breaths' time!" Sikong Yanran turned pale and said in horror.
The two girls looked at Wutian in a daze. They had placed their hopes on him and treated him as their spiritual pillar.
"Give me an empty mustard seed bag!" Wutian said without hesitation. He did not know if the mustard seed bag could contain the skeleton and isolate the terrifying energy. However, as long as there was a way, he had to try.
Cang Zheng hurriedly found a mustard seed bag and handed it to Wutian.
Wutian took it in his hand. His eyes flashed as he threw it out. However, before he could collect it, the mustard seed bag turned into nothingness!
"Try this again!" Sikong Yanran took out a bowl-shaped Imperial Divine Weapon from the mustard seed bag and explained simply, "This is a spatial treasure several times stronger than the mustard seed bag. It can contain a mountain range of ten thousand li. It is very hard."
However, it was even worse than the mustard seed bag. As soon as it was thrown out, it was frozen into pieces by the cold current of the cold pond!
In the end, the three of them used all kinds of methods. No matter what treasures they used, they could not resist the cold of the cold pond. Even if they could, they could not get close to the skeleton at the bottom!
"Damn it, what should we do? Why is Little Wu Hao not reacting? Calm down, we must calm down. We can definitely think of a way … "
Despair! Helpless! Such emotions rushed into Wutian's heart like a tidal wave. He shook his head violently and closed his eyes, trying hard to suppress these negative emotions.
Seeing this, the Sikong Yanran duo was anxious, but they didn't dare to disturb him. They racked their brains, hoping to find a way to break it!
"Blood … With the blood of your Heaven-Exterminating Battle Physique … you can … crush his bones …"
Just as Wutian was racking his brains to come up with a solution, a weak voice suddenly sounded intermittently in his mind.
"Who is it?!" Wutian roared as he opened his eyes. His eyes shone brightly as he scanned his surroundings.
The Sikong Yanran duo was startled by Wutian's shout. Their bodies quivered and they looked around suspiciously. When they didn't find anything unusual, they couldn't help but look at Wutian in confusion.
Wutian ignored them. The light in his eyes became brighter, as if he wanted to find something in this place.
However, he was disappointed. After the voice sounded, it didn't sound again. At the bottom of the cold pool, Wutian didn't see anyone suspicious. He couldn't help but be shocked!
Only he, Little Wu Hao, the little fellow, and the mysterious man knew that he had the Heaven-Exterminating Battle Physique. The voice that suddenly appeared obviously didn't belong to Little Wu Hao and the others. Who on earth was this person? Why did he know about the Heaven-Exterminating Battle Physique?
However, the current situation didn't allow him to think about it carefully. If this continued, the three of them would lose too much vitality. Even if they survived, they would probably become disabled.
Since the voice had warned him secretly, it must have a certain understanding of the Heaven-Exterminating Battle Physique. Maybe this method would work.
In fact, if Wutian had any other choice, he would never have listened to the mysterious voice. However, he had no other choice now. He could only take a gamble!
The Gold Force surged. He waved his left hand gently. Immediately, a blood mark appeared on the tip of his right middle finger. A few drops of blood quickly flowed out.
Wutian stared at the skeleton at the bottom of the cold pool. He clenched his teeth and five drops of blood flew out.
"Li Feng, what are you doing?" Cang Zheng and the little fellow were surprised.
The five drops of blood flew out of the light shield of the Soul of Fire and appeared in the cold pool. They didn't melt when they came in contact with the water. Like five crystal clear blood diamonds, they shuttled through the water and shot toward the black skeleton.
"Clang …"
The five drops of blood landed on the skull of the skeleton and vibrated with a sharp and ear-piercing metallic sound. Wutian was shocked. What realm was this skeleton's cultivation when it was alive? Even its bones were so hard. He even had a feeling that it was no worse than a Holy Weapon!
"It must succeed!"
Wutian's eyes shone brightly as he stared at the black skeleton. Although Sikong Yanran and the little fellow were puzzled, they could tell from his expression that this might be one of his methods to destroy the skeleton.
Under the nervous gazes of the three, the five drops of blood quickly melted and seeped into the skull of the skeleton. A moment later, a terrifying aura suddenly erupted from the skeleton!
"Oh no! We've been tricked! "Wutian's expression changed dramatically. This wasn't destroying the skeleton, but reviving it. That's right! Resurrection! Resurrection of this unknown, terrifying expert!
Without any hesitation, Wutian hurriedly grabbed the two girls' hands and rushed toward the surface of the pool without looking back.
However, that terrifying aura was countless times faster than his speed and instantly drowned the three of them!
As if they had been hit by a towering demonic mountain, Wutian and the other two spat out mouthfuls of blood. The next moment, they felt the world spinning in front of them. Their bodies were like meteors, shooting madly towards the surface of the water. Finally, with a bang, they crashed into a rock wall that was as hard as iron, spitting out a few more mouthfuls of blood!
"Bang!!!"
Following that, three more muffled sounds rang out one after another. After that, there was no more movement. Only three faint breathing sounds could be heard intermittently.
Wutian felt as if his body was about to fall apart. He wanted to move, but he couldn't. The intense pain, exhaustion, and weakness all over his body were like a tidal wave, attacking every nerve in his body, causing his consciousness to blur and he to feel drowsy …
"No! I must find out who lied to me, and what the hell is that human skeleton! "
Wutian fiercely bit his tongue and blood flowed out from his mouth. He shook his head hard and finally cleared his mind a little. Then, he opened his heavy eyelids with difficulty. Reflected in his eyes was the shadow of a stone room, overlapping and blurring. It was difficult to see clearly.
Raising his hand, he rubbed his eyes hard and wiped away the blood on his eyelids. When he looked again, Wutian could finally see the surroundings clearly. It turned out that after the previous torment, the three of them had returned to the stone room.
The surface of the cold pool was crazily surging, as if a peerless ferocious expert was born. The waves rose several feet high and crazily raged in all directions. Fortunately, the Flame of the Soul was unfathomable. Strands of divine light fell, isolating all the waves and protecting the three of them.
Cang Zheng and the other two had long been unconscious. Their stooped and aged bodies were stained with blood, looking extremely tragic!
Wutian gave up with difficulty. His eyes were fixed on the cold pool and a trace of determination flashed in his eyes. He muttered, "I really don't want to waste this chance. If it really comes to a point where there is no way out, then I can't care so much!"
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a terrifying aura rushed out from the cold pool. The bone-chilling water flowed in all directions and flooded the entire stone room, except for Wutian's room.
"How many years has it been? I've finally awakened. Sikong Lie, your end is here!" A deep voice sounded in the stone room. Although the sound of the waves hitting the stone walls was very loud, it could not cover this voice at all.
"Sikong Lie's enemy?" Hearing this, Wutian turned pale with fright. He didn't expect the skeleton under the cold pool to be Sikong Lie's former enemy!
The water curtain disappeared and rushed back into the cold pool. Soon, it became calm again. Above the cold pool, there was a pitch-black skeleton. This skeleton was the human skeleton at the bottom of the pool!
However, at this moment, the skeleton's bones were glowing, as if a demon king had returned. Its aura covered the sky. Especially in its eye sockets, there were two balls of golden flames burning, as bright and dazzling as the sun!
"How terrifying!"
Wutian was aghast. Just the aura emitted by this skeleton made him feel as if the heavens were descending upon him. He couldn't even summon the slightest desire to fight. Instead, an inexplicable panic rose within him!
It had to be known that in the Absolute Yin Ruins, when Wutian faced two incomparably powerful desolate beast species, he had dared to fight them. Moreover, his cultivation at that time was only at the Hundred Dynasties realm.
But now, he had reached the small success stage of the Divine Transformation realm and was no longer the same as before. Even so, he still had such a feeling. Just how strong was this skeleton?
In truth, what shocked Wutian the most was Sikong Lie. When he was alive, he actually had such a heaven-defying enemy. Moreover, from the skeleton's tone, it seemed that he had suffered a great loss at Sikong Lie's hands. From this, it could be seen just how terrifying his strength was when he was alive!
"Brat, have you seen enough?" The skeleton suddenly looked at Wutian. Its deep voice was like a thunderous roar, causing Wutian's mind to buzz.
"So, you were the one who sent me a message." Wutian's face darkened. The skeleton's voice was exactly the same as the one that had given him a warning at the bottom of the lake.
"Yes, it was me. To be honest, I should thank you. If it weren't for your vitality and blood, I wouldn't have been able to wake up so quickly. However, I have a deep-seated hatred for the Heaven Destroyer Battle Physique, so I have to kill you, "the skeleton said. The voice didn't come from its mouth, but from the two balls of flames in its eye sockets.
"How do you know that I have the Heaven Destroyer Battle Physique?" Wutian was puzzled.
Hearing this, the skeleton fell silent. The two balls of flames in its eye sockets flickered as if it was immersed in its memories.
After a long time, it said, "From the Antiquity Age until now, every time the black sun of the Samsara Continent descended, the Heaven Destroyer Battle Physique would appear and fight with some powerful existences to save the creatures of the Samsara Continent.
It can be said that the Heaven Destroyer Battle Physique is the reason why the Samsara Continent and many other small worlds could survive until now. They are heroes, but in the eyes of a supreme expert, the Heaven Destroyer Battle Physique clan is a thorn in the flesh.
As for me, I was once the subordinate of this supreme expert, and I was also sealed here by the Heaven-Exterminating Battle Body. Therefore, when I absorbed your vitality, I knew that you were a member of the Heaven-Exterminating Battle Body clan. However, when a strand of my Primordial Spirit entered your body and read your memories, I found something very interesting. "
