The hand was condensed from thick blood. Beneath the blood was ghastly white bone. It effused a corrosive and toxic aura as it slowly grabbed at the unaware Yi Yun. It was like a ghostly claw that had extended out of hell in a bid to drag Yi Yun into the abyss of death.
At that moment, Yi Yun suddenly extended his hand and pointed. He was not attacking the hand, but another spot on the ground.
"Ah!"
A sharp scream came from the ground, and the hand immediately turned into blood and splattered everywhere.
A black figure charged out of the ground and with a whoosh, it charged outside.
Bam!
The black figure slammed into the boundary of the array formation, producing a loud boom.
"I have forced you out and you still want to run?" As Yi Yun produced an array seal, the array formation immediately began to contract. Soon, the black figure was trapped in a tiny spot.
Yi Yun stabbed out with his sword, and with a scream, the black figure collapsed. The sanguine vortex vanished as well.
And where the black figure vanished, a tiny blood-red bone appeared. The bone was still planning on transforming into a red beam of light to escape but Yi Yun grabbed it in his hand and enveloped it with his Primordial Destruction domain.
"Blood Fey Bone …" Even through the domain, Yi Yun could sense the lifeblood contained in the bone. It was constantly beating like a powerful heart.
Yi Yun had expended quite a bit of effort to obtain the Blood Fey Bone. If not for the array formation and the Primordial Destruction domain, it would not have been easy to capture the Blood Fey Bone.
Just as Yi Yun was about to produce a few seals, he suddenly sensed a thought.
"Don't you wish to cooperate with me?"
Yi Yun's heart stirred as he immediately understood that the thought came from the Blood Fey Bone.
Since the Blood Fey Bone was cooperating with Nameless Sword, it naturally possessed sentience.
"Oh? How do you wish to cooperate with me? "Yi Yun asked with a teasing smile.
"I can cooperate with you just like how I cooperated with Nameless Sword. I can fuse myself with you and become a part of your skeleton. Your talent will undergo a tremendous change. You will have great achievements in body-tempering, "said the Blood Fey Bone's thought to Yi Yun with a tempting tone.
"Like Nameless Sword? Nameless Sword did not end up well. Therefore, I can directly refine you into a pill. Wouldn't that be better? I won't have to worry about the future, "said Yi Yun with a sneer.
"Wait! You are also an alchemist? "said the Blood Fey Bone in astonishment. It had interacted with Nameless Sword frequently, so it knew quite a bit about the Martial Dao. It was already very rare for Yi Yun to be an array master, but he was also an alchemist?
If it were refined into a pill, it would be completely obliterated. The Blood Fey Bone had experienced an unknown number of years before it finally gained sentience, so it naturally could not accept such a thing.
"If I were to be refined into a pill, the effects would be greatly reduced. Only by fusing the blood bone into your body can you be reborn."
"My cooperation with Nameless Sword was to leave this bone to him and he would help me find a body for me to possess. He wanted to be stronger, and I wanted to leave. Nameless Sword is a shrewd person. If I wanted to scam him, do you think he would do his best to cooperate with me? If not for you appearing and messing up his plans, Nameless Sword and I would have gotten what we needed. Therefore, by cooperating with me, there is absolutely no need to worry that I have any schemes, "said the Blood Fey Bone.
"I don't mind if the effects are reduced. After all, I picked you up. Besides, I'm not interested in your deal with Nameless Sword. It's better for you to be turned into a pill for me." As Yi Yun spoke, he began injecting seals onto the Blood Fey Bone again.
"Wait!" The Blood Fey Bone hurriedly said, "I'm very familiar with this place. Didn't you come to the Fey God Tomb to seek out opportunities? I can lead the way! No one here is better than me at leading the way. I can help you avoid many dangers. It has been years since anyone has come to the Fey God Tomb's abyss. Don't you wish to explore it? "
"Although I'm very interested in opportunities, I will not let you lead the way. Who knows if you will lead me into a trap?" Yi Yun shook his head and continued injecting seals. Even if what the Blood Fey Bone said was true, Yi Yun would not listen to the guidance of a darn thing in this godforsaken place. That would be courting death.
"Wait a moment!" The Blood Fey Bone was extremely depressed. Back then, Nameless Sword was also very suspicious. However, Nameless Sword had his obsessions and desires, but Yi Yun was completely impervious. Furthermore, he was ridiculously powerful.
If the seals were to be injected, it would no longer have a chance to speak. Even its mind would turn chaotic. Finally, it would be refined into herbal dregs in a daze.
"Why do you have so much nonsense to say? I'll give you a chance to say one last thing, "said Yi Yun.
The Blood Fey Bone had planned on using emotion and reason with Yi Yun, but it was shut down by Yi Yun's single sentence.
"Nothing to say? Then, we'll meet again during the refinement, "said Yi Yun.
With that said, Yi Yun had already produced a seal. The seal was so powerful that it immediately caused the Blood Fey Bone to tremble.
"There's one thing I did not tell Nameless Sword." The Blood Fey Bone seemed to make a huge decision as it finally said.
Yi Yun stopped and said with a faint smile, "Oh? What is it? "
The Blood Fey Bone was truly one that refused to shed a tear until it saw its coffin. Yi Yun refused to believe that the Blood Fey Bone would abandon its true body just to possess him. Nameless Sword probably did not believe it either, but he was desperate to obtain the Blood Fey Bone.
The Blood Fey Bone also knew that it was doomed if it could not produce a secret that stirred Yi Yun's heart.
"In fact, this piece of bone is not my entire body," said the Blood Fey Bone.
Yi Yun was taken aback. Could it be that the Blood Fey Bone was actually another soul that had attached itself to the bone?
However, he immediately rejected the thought. The Blood Fey Bone had a sinister aura. If any other soul were to attach itself to it, it would immediately be devoured.
"You should already understand that this is only a portion of my true body. This piece of bone belongs to a massive skeleton. You know the value of this piece of Blood Fey Bone, so you naturally know what a larger skeleton means. Furthermore, that skeleton's sanguine aura is extremely rich. It might even be the source of all the sanguine aura in the Fey God Tomb, "said the Blood Fey Bone.
"If your true body is that powerful, why do you only stay on this tiny piece of bone?" asked Yi Yun with a sneer.
"That's because that skeleton is sealed in the Fey God Tomb," said the Blood Fey Bone helplessly. The Blood Fey Bone said helplessly, "After a long period of time, a tiny piece of bone fell off the skeleton. The seal on the tiny piece of bone also loosened a lot. Gradually, that tiny piece of bone gave birth to sentience, which is me. But due to the seal, I have no way of entering the huge skeleton. All I can do is think of a way to leave the Fey God Tomb. Once I'm strong enough, I can return to crack the seal. "
The Blood Fey Bone's words were not entirely truthful but Yi Yun sensed that the skeleton the Blood Fey Bone was referring to was real.
The source of the sanguine aura in the Fey God Tomb might very well be the legendary Fey God bone!
The so-called Fey God Tomb was said to be the burial ground of Fey Gods.
Regardless if the skeleton was a Fey God bone or not, its value was extremely rare.
"You can forget about the skeleton. The seal is too powerful, making it difficult to even approach it. Even I plan on returning in hundreds of thousands of years. But if you are willing to spare me, I can bring you to the region where the skeleton is sealed. There, the sanguine aura will condense into a river. If you cultivate there, it will be greatly beneficial. The effects will be ten times better than refining me into pills. And the blood river produces Blood Spirit Jade. It will similarly be very beneficial to you. "The Blood Fey Bone began tempting Yi Yun again.
The moment its voice faded, a tiny crystal appeared in Yi Yun's hand. It looked similar to Spirit Jade but was blood-red in color.
Something like Blood Spirit Jade would probably only appear in a place with rich sanguine aura like the Fey God Tomb.
"It's indeed something good, but how do I know you aren't lying to me?" said Yi Yun indifferently.
"I believe you are very smart. You should be able to tell if I'm lying or not. How do I know if you will spare me after I bring you there? "retorted the Blood Fey Bone.
"That makes sense. In that case, lead the way. However, if I notice any problems with the way you lead, I will immediately refine you, "said Yi Yun.
"Hehe, I won't do something so pointless. How can you not discover any danger by forcing me out?" said the Blood Fey Bone with a sneer.
Yi Yun did not speak further. He did not trust the Blood Fey Bone, but he was extremely interested in the Fey God Bone it mentioned.
The Fey God Tomb was extremely vast. Even if he knew of the existence of the Fey God Bone, it would still be extremely difficult to find it. However, things would be different if he used the Blood Fey Bone.
However, the Blood Fey Bone was extremely crafty. It definitely had other hidden motives. Yi Yun had no choice but to be wary of this.
With this in mind, Yi Yun suddenly produced a seal that landed on the Blood Fey Bone.
The Blood Fey Bone immediately exclaimed, "What are you doing?"
"There's no need to be nervous. It's just a defensive seal. If you plan on harming me, this seal will activate," said Yi Yun.
The Blood Fey Bone was skeptical as it carefully sensed the restriction. After confirming the effects of the restriction, it said unhappily, "I can't beat you, so why would I harm you? You are being too paranoid."
With that said, it fell silent.
At that moment, everyone was standing on a few spots in the array formation as they stared intently into it.
The moment Yi Yun charged into the sanguine vortex, everyone heaved a sigh of relief. Following that, ghostly shadows filled the area as they constantly emitted horrifying screams. And their vision was obstructed by the sanguine vortex and the ghostly shadows. All they could see was Yi Yun's figure and his sword beams. They had no idea what was happening inside.
And at that moment, the sanguine vortex suddenly dissipated. Yi Yun walked out unscathed.
"Brother Yi, have you captured the Blood Fey Bone?" Nanxuan Luoyue came forward and asked with concern.
Yi Yun smiled faintly and flipped his hand. Immediately, a blood-red bone appeared in his palm. It effused a sinister aura. It was none other than the Blood Fey Bone.
