Fang Yun looked at the pits and depressions and could not help but recall that someone had said that they had seen a giant claw hundreds of miles long on the Dragon Cliff. Now that he thought about it, it was very likely to be true.
In his line of sight, apart from the giant footprints and rivers, there was only the ground and hills. The sky was cloudless, and there was not even a trace of wind. Apart from the sound of the waterfall, there was no other sound in the world.
The waterfall fell into the valley, echoing.
Fang Yun looked down at the lake water in the pit and recited a Fleetfoot Poem. Then, he quickly ran to the next pit. It was empty, and there were no plants. Then, he ran to the third pit.
The third crater was empty, and the fourth crater was empty as well. Fang Yun walked to the fifth crater and found some huge demon skeletons in the middle of the crater. The skeletons were standing in the middle of the crater.
The Fleetfoot Poem could not only make people run faster, but it could also make people jump very high. Fang Yun found many footholds on the cliff of the pit, so he used the Fleetfoot Poem to jump down.
When Fang Yun got close to the skeletons, he found that these skeletons were very huge. The complete skeletons were easily 200 to 300 feet long, and the complete skeleton of a giant elephant was actually 400 feet long. It stood there like a huge city wall.
Fang Yun walked to the front of the giant elephant skeleton. The leg bone of the giant elephant was three feet wide.
Fang Yun stretched out his hand and tried to touch the bone. As soon as his finger touched it, clear cracks immediately appeared on the surface of the bone. Kacha, kacha, kacha. Then, a large hole appeared in the leg bone. Following that, the entire leg bone shattered. In the end, the huge elephant skeleton collapsed like a small mountain.
In the dust, Fang Yun quickly retreated.
Fang Yun knew that it had been too long. Moreover, the environment here was very special. Unless it was a demon of the semi-sage realm, even the bones of a great demon king couldn't be intact if they were placed in the open. If they were buried in a special environment, they would become fossils like dinosaur bones. They wouldn't be so fragile.
When the dust settled, Fang Yun walked to the elephant tusk. He found that the tusks were also broken into several sections.
There were too many bones here, and it seemed like he wouldn't be able to find anything valuable. Fang Yun didn't give up. After thinking for a while, he remembered that the bones in the ancient land could be condensed into fist-sized crystals called marrow pearls. They were useless to the human race, but they were something that the spirit bones desperately needed. They could be exchanged for many things with the spirit bones. Once, someone had used marrow pearls to exchange for Thunder Stones.
However, there were many demon skeletons here. There were over a hundred of them. It would take a very long time to search for their essence pearls one by one, and there would definitely be some that were left behind.
Fang Yun thought for a moment and found an open space. He took out the guqin and a seat and began to play "Autumn Wind Melody".
At first, there was no change in the surroundings, but halfway through, a sorrowful autumn feeling blended into the melody. It spread out in all directions. This was a Grand Scholar's Wenbao Qin, and it had been infused with Qi four times, so the sound of the Qin was resounding. The vibrations formed by the sound of the zither caused the nearby white bones to collapse one after another.
After the first round, Fang Yun continued to play. The surrounding Qi of Heaven and Earth was attracted by the power of the Autumn Wind Melody, with Fang Yun as the center. The autumn wind blew in all directions.
Under the cloudless blue sky, Fang Yun was playing the guqin in a desolate valley, while the wind blew in all directions. It blew away all the sand and ashes.
After a quarter of an hour, Fang Yun put away the guqin and scanned the surroundings. He found some fist-sized essence pearls on the ground. They were in an irregular spherical shape, like turbid white glass.
Fang Yun put away all the essence pearls. There were a total of sixteen of them.
Other than these essence pearls, there were also some broken white bone pieces on the ground. They were incomparably hard. Fang Yun took them away. These bone pieces were excellent materials for making chess pieces. They were still there even after the erosion of time. The boundless will had been brewing for countless years, and when a chess piece was placed, it could cause a storm. If he gave it to Ling Gu, he could also exchange it for some good things.
Fang Yun walked back the way he came and prepared to leave. However, after walking for a few dozen steps, he suddenly stopped. A puzzled expression appeared on his face. He then closed his eyes and slowly recalled.
Not long after, Fang Yun finally revealed a look of understanding. No wonder he felt that something was wrong with this place from the beginning. The bones of so many giant beasts were actually standing here in perfect condition. It was obvious that they were placed here. It was impossible for them to have died of natural causes. Then why were they placed here?
Fang Yun immediately returned. He remembered that the beast bones were all facing the same direction, which was the same as the huge claw print. Therefore, Fang Yun returned to the original location of the bones and slowly walked in the direction of the claw print.
As he walked, Fang Yun found that although the ground was flat, it was full of fine cracks. The ground of the other four pits definitely did not have such a place. Because the power of the claw print was too strong, the ground that the claw print stepped on was incomparably hard. It was impossible for there to be any cracks.
This place with cracks was about fifteen feet long and twenty feet wide.
"Could it be that there is something buried below?"
Fang Yun thought to himself. He began to take out his weapon and hit it. He found that the stones were very hard. Even if these weapons were broken, they could only dig out a small hole of one foot square.
Fang Yun had no other choice. After thinking about it, he left the pit and walked to the river. Using his powerful water control power, he temporarily changed the direction of the water flow and let the river flow to the fifth pit.
The fifth pit had a new waterfall.
Finally, Fang Yun wrote the battle poem "Wind and Rain Dream Battle". However, he deliberately reserved his strength and only summoned fifty cavalry. Without the weak water, the cavalry's strength was limited. Without a large amount of water, the cavalry's strength would be even weaker. Now that there was an endless stream of water, the cavalry's ice spears would be even stronger. Moreover, the ice spears could be reformed immediately after breaking.
"I am probably the first scholar to use a battle poem to dig a hole."
Fang Yun shook his head and commanded the cavalry with ice spears to dig a hole.
These cavalry were composed of Yuan Qi water. They were stronger than Fang Yun. Although the ice spears were brittle, they were not inferior to steel.
The number of cavalry decreased, but they lasted longer.
With a series of clanging sounds, the cavalry did not let down Fang Yun's hopes. They dug out a large amount of gravel and dug out a hole that was as tall as a person. Finally, a white bone that even the ice spears could not destroy was revealed.
"Stop!" Fang Yun waved his hand. All the cavalry jumped out of the pit and turned into water.
Fang Yun jumped into the pit with a happy face. At first glance, he could tell that it was a dragon bone. This was because the exposed white bone had dragon patterns on it. After taking a closer look, Fang Yun revealed an unconcealable look of surprise.
The dragon patterns on it were actually pure gold!
"True Dragon Bone." Fang Yun was overjoyed.
"I felt that those huge Fey skeletons were buried with it. Sure enough! Other than the True Dragon Clan, who else would have such a big hand! However, this bone is very small. It seems to be a young dragon. "
Fang Yun thought. He immediately took out his spear and slowly dug the soil around the white bone. The soil around the white bone was much softer than the rocks above. With the spearhead, Fang Yun could easily dig it out.
Not long after, a complete dragon bone appeared in the pit. The bottom of the bone was still embedded in the ground.
Because Fang Yun could not dig it out.
This bone had been buried for many years. The dragon patterns still had a faint glow. The power of the dragon bone did not weaken. Instead, it had a surging majesty. It formed a kind of spiritual power that suppressed Fang Yun's literary palace. It slowed his thoughts and made it difficult for him to control his body. He had no choice but to retreat.
Fang Yun slowly left the pit. Only then did the pressure disappear.
Fang Yun gently wiped the sweat from his forehead. His face was pale. Because just a moment ago, a dragon head phantom appeared outside his literary palace. That dragon head phantom only glanced at him and his literary palace almost shattered.
"That's not right. Even the dragon bone of the Sacred Dragon's son can't be this strong. Could it be that the one who buried it injected power into it? But the nature of this power reminds me of the giant claw. Could it be that this dragon bone absorbed the power of the giant claw? "
Fang Yun was puzzled. But no matter what, he could not obtain this dragon bone. The pressure of this dragon bone was too strong. If he forcefully dug it out, it was very likely that his literary palace would be shattered by the pressure. Not to mention a High Scholar, even a Great Scholar would not be able to withstand that level of power.
Fang Yun unwillingly looked at the white and golden dragon bone in the pit.
"A battle of words is a kind of power that is constantly growing. It is a power that can stand side by side with battle poems, profound words, and literary treasures. Sword refining poems and sword fusion items are the most important, followed by sword opening poems. Most people do not have a sword fusion item. If they use it carelessly, it will make the ancient sword impure. Even the ordinary disciples of the Sacred Families do not have a sword fusion item. "
Fang Yun thought in his heart as he looked at the golden dragon bone.
"Only the top geniuses of the aristocratic families are qualified to obtain the pseudo dragon bone. The top geniuses of a higher level would have the complete flood dragon bone and sword refining poems. Only by fusing the complete dragon bone can a battle of words be like a dragon and become the strongest ancient sword of talent. Like Jian Mei Duke, who constantly killed demons and used the blood of countless demons to sharpen his ancient sword of talent, it is barely weaker than an ordinary sword that is like a dragon. I do not have as much time as Jian Mei Duke! "
"The power of a poem can be immediately displayed, but a battle of words is different. Other than fusing the dragon bone, one can only rely on various divine items or killing enemies to sharpen it. There is no technique, only time and energy. If I were to fuse the flood dragon bone into a battle of words, it would be almost impossible for me to catch up with Xiong Jun, let alone those stronger people. So, if I want to compete with those senior geniuses in a battle of words, I must fuse the true dragon bone! "
"This true dragon bone, I cannot give it up!"
Fang Yun frowned as he pondered, looking for a way to suppress the huge pressure.
Suddenly, Fang Yun took out the blood drop beast skin from his clothes and threw it at the dragon bone without hesitation.
The blood drop beast skin did not land on the dragon bone but floated a foot above it.
A formless shock wave was emitted from the dragon bone and landed on the blood drop beast skin. The blood drop beast skin undulated like waves, and then the ground of the huge pit shook slightly. Fang Yun could not stand steadily.
Suddenly, three drops of blood flew out from the beast skin and fought side by side like comrades on the beast skin. Together with the beast skin, they emitted a faint light that enveloped the dragon bone.
A strange sound was emitted from the dragon bone. It was as soft as a mosquito, but when the sound reached the literary palace, it was like the roar of a dragon sage. It shook Fang Yun's literary palace and made him dizzy.
After a while, Fang Yun woke up. If an ordinary Grand Scholar heard this sound, his literary palace would definitely collapse.
Fang Yun focused and saw a dragon-shaped shadow fly out from the dragon bone and fuse with the three drops of blood into the beast skin.
The beast skin landed on the dragon bone with a plop.
The pressure of the dragon bone disappeared. (To be continued …)
