Evil Energy
"Junior Brother Yun, these twelve pieces of desolate bone are not simple. Your mental strength is a bit weak, and you may not be able to withstand them. Do you still want to continue?"
Shentu Nantian smiled at Yi Yun and spoke.
The danger has been laid bare. If Yi Yun insists on continuing at this point, and something happens to him, it will have nothing to do with Yi Yun Shentu Nantian, and the Lin family will have no reason to hold him accountable.
This only shows that Yi Yun overestimated his abilities and brought it upon himself.
Seeing the smile on Shentu Nantian's face, Yi Yun sneered inwardly.
Since there was danger, Shentu Nantian didn't mention it earlier, but only brought it up when the bone refining process had already begun. His purpose was nothing more than to put himself in a dilemma.
If Yi Yun agreed to continue refining his bones at this point, that would be exactly what Shentu Nantian wanted to see. He hoped that Yi Yun's mental strength would be damaged and he would become an idiot.
Conversely, if Yi Yun retreats, Shen Shentu Nantian will be somewhat disappointed, but his goal will still have been achieved.
In any case, Shentu Nantian benefited the most.
Yi Yun understood Shentu Nantian's intentions, and Lin Xin Tong and Su Jie certainly saw them clearly as well.
"Kid, don't be impulsive!"
"Yi Yun, don't fall for it."
Lin Xin Tong and Su Jie's telepathic communication rang in Yi Yun's ears almost simultaneously.
A slight smile curved the corners of Yi Yun's mouth beneath his mask. Shentu Nantian was scheming against him, but wasn't he also scheming against Shentu Nantian?
Yi Yun is a very vengeful person. He suffered such a huge loss before, how could he be satisfied without getting some retribution?
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. If I really can't handle it, I won't force myself."
Yi Yun replied to Su Jie and Lin Xin Tong using his spiritual energy, ignoring their continued objections. He said to Shentu Nantian, "I have no problem. The bone refining has already begun. How can I withdraw at this time?"
Yi Yun's words startled all the Savage Heaven Master present. This kid really has guts!
The younger generation of the Lin family, in particular, were all worried for Yi Yun. Those twelve pieces of desolate bone were full of evil. Yi Yun had no knowledge of the Heavenly Desolate Ancient Sect's inheritance, yet he still dared to accept this challenge. He was truly skilled and daring.
Moreover, Yi Yun is so young, three years younger than Shentu Hai and Shentu Feng. In this situation, if it were anyone else, I'm afraid no one would dare to take on the task and risk their life.
"I hope nothing really happened..."
The Lin family was worried. Now Yi Yun was doing well, bringing honor to himself and the Lin family.
However, if his soul sea suffers any permanent damage during the process of refining the desolate bones, it won't be a source of pride; instead, he'll be ridiculed for not knowing his own limitations and for being blind and foolish.
"Junior Brother Yun, your courage is commendable. You are truly a peerless genius of this generation in the Tianyuan Realm." Shentu Nantian spared no praise as Yi Yun accepted the challenge, much to his delight. He had thought Yi Yun would refuse.
"He's just a child after all. Too young."
Shentu Nantian thought to himself that, in his eyes, Yi Yun was only fifteen years old, a time when he was ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth and thought he was the center of the world.
Especially considering Yi Yun's outstanding performance just now, any fifteen-year-old would inevitably become arrogant and lose sight of their own limitations.
This is the result that Shentu Nantian most wanted to see.
Shentu Nantian's lips moved slightly, transmitting his voice to Shentu Feng and Shentu Hai.
The two brothers chuckled, "Don't worry, senior brother, leave it to us!"
"Then let's continue," Shentu Nantian said with a smile. "Ugly!"
Shentu Nantian revealed the name of the second piece of desolate bone.
The "Ugly" type of waste bone is in Shentu Feng's hands.
Shentu Feng took out the array plate from his Space Ring. The "Ugly" grade desolate bone was not too difficult, and he was confident he could complete it.
"Tiger!"
Just as Shentu Feng began extracting energy, Shentu Nantian immediately called out the "Yin" character-named Desolate Bone, which was in Yi Yun's hands!
Yi Yun remained calm as he took out the corresponding Desolate Bone and his own array plate.
He noticed a playful yet expectant smile on Shentu Nantian's lips; he was waiting for him to suffer the Mental Backlash contained within the desolate bones.
At this moment, countless eyes were focused on Yi Yun. Compared to Yi Yun, Shentu Feng, who already knew the secret techniques of the Heavenly Desolate Ancient Sect, naturally received little attention.
Yi Yun remained calm and used his mental power to control the "Yin" character-named desolate bone, making it float in mid-air.
At the same time, Yi Yun activated the Energy Vision of the Purple Crystal.
Energy Vision that sees through all illusions.
In an instant, Yi Yun saw all the energy structures within the "Yin" character-named desolate bone.
"As expected, there is Evil Energy..."
Yi Yun could clearly distinguish the nature and essence of the energy within the desolate bones.
In this world, there are some pure and powerful energies that are very beneficial to martial arts practitioners. The energies in Ancient Remnant Species like the Desolate Bone and the Pure Yang Spirit are examples of this.
However, some energies are inherently destructive. Even if they are tamed, they are of no use to martial artists. For example, when the Shepherd Boy fought against the Myriad Ghosts Emperor, the dark energy that the Ten Thousand Myriad Ghosts Bell Myriad Ghosts Emperor used to unleash was also incredibly powerful, but it had no use other than killing people. No one could absorb and utilize that kind of energy.
Now, within these desolate bones lies an energy of similar nature, which is utterly useless except for harming people.
This should be a piece of "Yin" type desolate bone, left behind during the processing using the ancient secret techniques of the Heavenly Desolate Ancient Sect.
If the Savage Heaven Master is not careful when extracting energy from these things, he will suffer a backlash.
Of course, it posed no threat to Yi Yun at all.
Yi Yun raised his hand and began to form a hand seal.
Everyone stared intently at Yi Yun's ten fingers; the outcome of this bone-refining process would be revealed now.
"Teacher!"
Lin Xin Tong reminded Su Jie, Su Jie waved his hand slightly and said intently, "My mental power has already locked onto this kid. If he shows any abnormality, I will immediately take action to sever his mental connection with Huang Gu. However... Mental Backlash is instantaneous. Even if I act in time, his soul sea will suffer some damage, but he will definitely not become an idiot."
That's all Su Jie can do for now. At the Savage Heaven Technique Tea Party, in front of so many people, Yi Yun himself agreed to something, and as his master, he couldn't forcefully oppose it. He could only try to save Yi Yun if something went wrong.
"Um."
Lin Xin Tong nodded; now they could only rely on Su Jie.
"Heh! Still so inexperienced..." Shentu Nantian noticed that when Yi Yun was extracting the energy from the Desolate Bone, he didn't spare much power to protect his soul sea, which was a major taboo.
Like Shentu Hai, when he used the Savage Heaven Technique, he first summoned the Dharma Aspect Totem to prevent the backlash of the Desolate Bone Energy. Even with so many preparations, he still expended a great deal of energy and almost got injured.
Yi Yun is acting so recklessly now, isn't he courting death?
"I really overestimated you. It seems that even if you don't turn into an idiot this time, you're going to suffer a major setback and won't be able to recover for at least half a year."
Shentu Nantian naturally noticed that, including Su Jie, the Lin family's higher-ups, and even the Lin Family Old Matriarch, were all paying close attention to Yi Yun's every move, ready to take action at any moment.
Clearly, the Lin family couldn't just stand by and watch such a talented person turn into an idiot because of a single Savage Heaven Technique Tea Party.
This scene made Shentu Nantian realize that it was no longer possible to completely destroy Yi Yun, but it would be enough to severely injure Yi Yun once and delay his cultivation.
At this moment, Yi Yun tapped his fingers alternately on the desolate bone, as if playing a zither, and Rune Imprint flew out one after another.
These marks exude a rustic charm, leaving people stunned upon seeing them.
Mysterious Crystal Hand?
Why is it still the Mysterious Crystal Hand?
The Lin family's Savage Heaven Master, especially the younger generation, were all dumbfounded.
