Due to a moment of carelessness, Fang Xing managed to sneak into the Dragon Bone Temple first. Qiu Xian and the Five Elders were very nervous. They were worried that Fang Xing would take all the good stuff in the Dragon Bone Temple for himself. After all, if someone else took it, they could still ask for an equal share. However, if it fell into the hands of this demon, it would be difficult for them to ask him to hand it over. They had spent a lot of effort just buying his spiritual essences along the way. They had already tacitly agreed that he was such a person and had long given up on the idea of taking advantage of him.
However, just as they were about to rush into the Dragon Bone Temple, a sorrowful cry came from inside the temple. It made their hearts tremble. They did not dare to rush in immediately, fearing that there would be danger inside. They stayed at the entrance of the temple for a while.
However, it was only for a moment before they used their own methods to investigate.
"Whoosh!"
Mister Lan's body became blurry and in the blink of an eye, there were two of him. His real body stayed at the entrance of the temple while his doppelganger stepped into the temple without hesitation. At the same time, the scholarly Mister Wen pointed his finger in the air and formed a rune. It looked like an eye and quickly rushed into the temple.
And the withered old woman and Mr Ghost's reaction was not slow, the withered old woman's white hair fluttered, a demon general puppet appeared beside her, charged straight into the Dragon Bone Temple, while Mr Ghost split out a stream of black smoke, flew straight into it.
Even if there was danger inside, it would not scare them. The most important thing was to observe the situation inside.
Of course, if Fang Xing really encountered any danger inside, they would also lend a hand to save him.
However, they were all stunned after observing the situation inside with their various abilities.
The interior of the Dragon Bone Temple was not very large. It was similar to the ancestral halls of every orthodoxy on the Tian Yuan Continent. It was only a few dozen meters wide and could be seen with a single glance. The walls and floor were also made of bone and were engraved with faint inscriptions. There were many different kinds of shelves in the temple, but they were all empty now. At the end of the temple, there was a white stone platform with a squarish bone box on it. The box was engraved with the image of an evil dragon baring its fangs and claws. It stared at the entrance of the temple gloomily.
Overall, the entire Dragon Bone Temple was empty. There was no danger at all.
Why was the little demon crying out?
Everyone looked at Fang Xing at this moment. Their gazes were filled with doubt and some impatience.
"The Nine-headed Bug has emptied everything …"
Fang Xing finally spoke. He pointed at the empty shelves and said with a tone that seemed as if he would rather die.
"Motherf * cker …"
Only then did the various cultivators realize that it was a false alarm. They retracted their divine arts and entered the Dragon Bone Temple with their true bodies. The way they looked at Fang Xing was a little strange. This guy was really too good at bluffing. They thought he had encountered some kind of danger just now, but it turned out that the scream was because the Nine-headed Bug had taken away the items in the Dragon Bone Temple in advance. However, looking at the shelves around them, there were all kinds of items. There must have been quite a lot of items placed on them before, but now that they were empty, it was clear that someone had indeed taken away a lot of them.
"That's too cruel. Who knows how many treasures were originally placed here. They've all been taken away!"
Fang Xing gritted his teeth and his eyes were about to spit fire. He cursed as he walked forward.
"You're speaking as if the Nine-headed Bug took away your items …"
Zhu Xiu cursed in his heart. The Nine-headed Bug had come earlier than them. It was reasonable for it to have taken away the opportunities and opportunities in the temple. They naturally felt a little regretful. However, they would not be as distressed as the little demon. It was a little ridiculous.
"This black-hearted Nine-headed Bastard deserves to have his hands chopped off. Does he think he's a bandit? Why did he sweep it so cleanly? "
Fang Xing was still furious. He cursed under his breath. Zhu Xiu's gaze was extremely strange.
Although they had not appeared in the world for a long time and did not pay much attention to the geniuses who would rise and disappear like weeds in Tian Yuan every generation, they had vaguely heard that among the younger generation of Tian Yuan, the one with the title of bandit was this person before them …
"Well, not everything has been moved …"
At this moment, the black-robed Mr. Ghost suddenly spoke in a low voice. He looked in a direction.
In reality, there was no need for him to remind them. In reality, everyone had already noticed that thing. It was right in front of the entrance of the temple. There was a white box made of bone. It was about three meters square. There was a faint golden seal on it. It was not torn off. It looked like the box had never been opened. In this huge Dragon Bone Temple, only the box was placed on the platform. Regardless of its position or appearance, it seemed to be the most precious thing in the Dragon Bone Temple, and also the only thing …
"That box is one with the temple …"
Fang Xing naturally noticed it too. He smiled slyly and said in a low voice.
The expressions of the various cultivators were rather grim, and they moved closer unnaturally. It was clear that they were guarding against others trying to snatch it. Then, upon closer inspection, they realized that the box was indeed one with the Dragon Bone Temple. This was probably the reason why it had not been moved away. However, as they looked at the closed part of the box, everyone grew suspicious. While there was still a seal on it, there were clearly no ripples of mana on the seal. It was just a normal paper seal. Why had the Nine-headed Bug not taken it away?
"Of course, there might be a good treasure inside. Old witch, go take a look …"
Fang Xing actually did not have the urgency he had when he first entered this place. He laughed slyly and egged on the withered old woman beside him.
"Hmph, you dare to call me old witch?"
The withered old woman looked at the box and coldly replied to Fang Xing. Her tone was unfriendly.
"I'm doing this for your own good. Don't you want the treasure, old witch?"
Fang Xing was not afraid of her at all. He chuckled and looked sincere.
"It's better to be careful!"
Mister Lan could not stand it anymore and said in a low voice.
Fang Xing was not an idiot. Naturally, they were not idiots either. Ever since they entered the Dragon Bone Temple, they had all noticed the box. After all, it was the only thing left in the temple. But no matter how anxious they were, no one wanted to be the first to open it. After all, the Dragon Bone Temple had already been visited by the Nine-headed Bug once. So many things were taken away. Why was this bone box the only thing left behind?
There must be something fishy going on …
Old foxes like them would not fight to take this risk!
Everyone had this thought in mind. And so, this situation was formed. They looked at each other in dismay, and no one wanted to go forward!
"There must be a reason why this Dragon Bone Temple is located here. Perhaps it has a deep connection with how to reach the other side of the Path to Immortality. Even if some of the opportunities here have been taken away by the Jiu Ling King, there are still some opportunities that he cannot take away by himself. This bone box is placed in such an important place. We can't miss it. Even if there are no opportunities left in it, it will be good to see if there are any clues left behind … I think we should find a way to open it and take a look …"
Mister Lan said in a gloomy voice. His eyes were rather dignified.
"You're right. Let me try using the talisman technique!"
The scholarly Mister Wen said in a low voice. He glanced at Zhu Xiu. Seeing that no one objected, he raised his hand and drew a talisman in the void. Then, the talisman light shone brightly and rushed forward. It turned into a whirlwind. It was obvious that it wanted to open the bone box. However, a surprising scene appeared. The talisman light suddenly disappeared before it could reach the bone box. Then, it turned into nothingness!
"Eh? That bone box is mysterious. It has devoured the magic power of my talisman … "
Mister Wen was startled. He then said in a low voice.
"Let me try!"
The withered old woman stepped forward. Her withered hair fluttered in the wind. She manipulated a puppet to rush forward in an attempt to open the bone box.
However, the bone box seemed to have grown roots. The demon puppet's strength of tens of thousands of kilograms couldn't move it at all.
"This box has been placed there. So, it can't be opened casually …" Mister Lan frowned.
Mister Lan frowned and analyzed in a low voice, "I don't see any seals or talismans on the box. There's only a seal that hasn't been torn off. Furthermore, it's just an ordinary paper seal that doesn't have any magic power. It doesn't look like there's any mechanism or the like in order to open this bone box. Could it be that brute force is needed to open this bone box? Or perhaps, having enough power to open this stone box is also a test?"
"If that's the case, I believe that this bone box hasn't been opened!"
Fang Xing suddenly said with a smile, "Don't forget where we are. This is the Dragon Tribe's Path to Immortality. Who was it prepared for? It's a dragon that has the right to become an immortal. What's placed in this bone box is clearly the greatest creation in this Dragon Bone Temple. In that case, it's only natural for there to be some sort of test on it. And based on my guess, it's very likely that the test isn't some complicated mechanism or restriction, but the simplest … power. Only the power of a True Immortal can open this stone box and obtain the creation inside!
"If it's the power of a True Immortal, we can join hands. Perhaps …"
Mister Lan's expression became very solemn. He seemed to agree with Fang Xing's words.
"This is probably our fortune!"
Mister Wen suddenly whispered with a smile, "That Nine-headed Worm is indeed powerful. None of us is a match for it in terms of individual cultivation and strength. But, we have the advantage in numbers. It doesn't have the power of a True Immortal. But, we can join hands. Perhaps we can do it!"
"Then … should we go forward and give it a try?"
Mister Ghost asked in a low voice. But, it was met with silence.
After all, it was only a guess. What if there was some danger inside the box?
"Hehe, how can we become an Immortal if we're so afraid of the wolf in front and the tiger behind?"
It was also at this time that Fang Xing, who had been hiding in the back, suddenly sneered. As he spoke, he swaggered over to the bone box and placed his hand on it without the slightest fear. Such a bold action caused the hearts of all the cultivators present to jump in fright, but he acted as if nothing had happened. He exerted his strength to lift the bone box, but found that he could not lift it. Then, he stared at the people behind him with a pair of strange eyes and scolded, "A bunch of useless things, come over and help me …"
