The skeletal beings were exceedingly strange. Even the weakest had the combat strength of a Half-step Dao Venerable who had undergone the First Great Heavenly Tribulation.
Within a radius of one or two million li, there were over ten thousand skeletal beings, including a full three thousand at the Mahayana Dao Venerable level and more than a dozen at the Immortal Venerable level. Three of the latter had reached the Immortal Domain Realm.
"Kill!"
Li Qingyuan, Ji Kun, Diana, Old Zhao, Miao Le, and Bing Ling'er swooped into the fray. "Father, Mother, Xian'er and the others have already left. We can let loose and fight all out."
[Great Sword Technique]
The Green Wood Heavenly Sun Sword emerged, its grade surpassing his cultivation to reach that of a middle Mahayana stage Law Treasure. With its frequent tempering by the Longevity Immortal Seed and the various peerless cultivation materials used to forge it, it was no weaker than a late Mahayana stage Law Treasure.
Li Qingyuan swept his sword across the sky. The Ten Thousand Zhang Giant Sword pierced the Vast Sea, azure sword light erupting with the power of blazing flames, Thunderbolt, and fierce winds. One sword, three kills.
A flood dragon skeleton, a bird skeleton, and a humanoid skeleton-all three with early Mahayana stage cultivation-were killed instantly by Li Qingyuan's single strike.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The three skeletons exploded, their shattered bones turning to dust. The bone dust instantly fused, bursting with crystalline light before finally forming three small, translucent crystals.
"What are these?" Li Qingyuan waved the three crystals over. They glittered like crystal stones, clear and translucent, yet they were neither Spiritual Qi nor vital Qi, but some unknown energy.
Moreover, the crystals left behind by early Mahayana stage skeletal beings were only the size of quail eggs.
