White Bone Dao

The Black Wind Three Heroes laughed heartily at Chen Ming's arrogant words.

However, they cautiously retreated a few steps, exhaling their Black Wind Divine Ability to shield themselves.

Chen Ming's Blood Bead rose, releasing a highly toxic mist from which a dense swarm of poisonous insects flew out.

Yet, they were blown back by the black wind, unable to get anywhere near the Black Wind Three Heroes.

It seems this treasure needs to be refined once more! Seeing that the Blood Bead could not achieve its goal, Chen Ming did not force it; he chanted a spell and put the Blood Bead away.

"If this is all the skill you have, then we won't be polite!"

The Black Wind Three Heroes laughed wildly, transforming the black wind into a giant hand and reaching out to grab Chen Ming.

"True Person, be careful!"

Seeing this, Qin Yuyan could not help but feel worried.

At this moment, seeing Chen Ming at a disadvantage, Qin Yuyan felt a flash of regret, thinking he shouldn't have summoned the True Person and brought such trouble upon him.

Chen Ming saw through Qin Yuyan's thoughts and smiled lightly, saying, "Just watch my divine ability!"

Chen Ming shifted the Magic Art in his hands, and five-colored radiance—cyan, yellow, crimson, black, and white—rose up behind him.

With a twist toward the giant black wind hand, the hand was instantly ground into nothingness.

"What kind of divine ability is this? To have such power!"

Sensing that the situation had turned against them, the Black Wind Three Heroes immediately retracted their flagpoles and turned to flee.

They had always been this way; whenever they saw the situation turn sour, they would decisively run away. This tactic had helped them evade many disasters.

But today, having encountered Chen Ming, how could he let them leave?

The five-colored radiance flew out from behind him. The cyan light transformed into a sword, piercing through the heart of one of them.

The crimson light transformed into a beam of Bright Fire Heavenly Light, burning another to death.

The last one was blocked by a Profound Yin Demonic Water Yin Thunder and a cluster of Golden Light Divine Flame.

"You cannot kill me!"

"I am working for White Bone Superior!"

"If you kill me, White Bone Superior won't be able to finish refining the Vengeful Soul Banner, and he will definitely come to kill you!"

With the Black Wind Three Heroes reduced to just this one in the blink of an eye, how could he not be afraid?

"What does White Bone Superior matter? I said I would kill you, so I will kill you!" Chen Ming said coldly.

The remaining member of the Black Wind Three Heroes focused entirely on defending against the Profound Yin Demonic Water Thunder and the Golden Light Divine Flame before him.

The power of those divine abilities far exceeded the Contemplation Realm; a single strike would surely kill him.

A thought struck him, and he held the Vengeful Soul Banner of White Bone Superior in front of himself.

"If you kill me, this banner will be damaged along with me. I don't care about my own life, but if the banner is destroyed, White Bone Superior will know in an instant!"

After saying this, he burst into wild laughter.

Who would have thought that his laughter would come to an abrupt halt!

The Profound Yin Demonic Water Thunder and the Golden Light Divine Flame, which he had been guarding against the entire time, were never unleashed.

Instead, a beam of starlight descended from the void, transforming into a yellow light that struck his body.

His body stiffened, turned into stone, and crumbled onto the ground with a clatter.

A gust of wind blew, and he turned into a pile of yellow dust.

The five divine abilities slowly dissipated, and the Five-Colored Radiance behind Chen Ming vanished as well.

Chen Ming flipped the Blood Bead in his hand, which transformed into a dense swarm of insects that devoured the Spiritual Energy left behind by the Black Wind Three Heroes.

After finishing this, Chen Ming picked up the Vengeful Soul Banner that had fallen to the ground.

Although the Vengeful Soul Banner was only a completed flagpole, it was the life's work of White Bone Superior.

Once the flagpole changed hands, the mark left inside by White Bone Superior immediately reacted.

Pitch-black energy erupted from the flagpole, coiling toward Chen Ming's hand.

Chen Ming immediately threw the flagpole away.

The black energy on the flagpole surged, emitting a piercing whistle as it tore through the air, clearly intending to fly back to White Bone Superior.

Chen Ming recited a mantra, and the Five-Colored Radiance flew out from behind him, suppressing the flagpole until it could not move.

The flagpole had, after all, been refined by a Soul Condensation Realm cultivator; it was full of spirit and resisted the suppression of the Five-Colored Radiance incessantly.

It emitted a squeaking, grating sound that set one's teeth on edge.

"To think that a mere unfinished Demonic Treasure would resist so fiercely!"

Chen Ming swept it with his Spiritual Sense and discovered that it was filled with nothing but filthy energy and low-grade methods.

Having seen the true nature of the Vengeful Soul Banner, Chen Ming extinguished the idea of breaking it down into its original materials to make the best use of it.

He increased the pressure of his mana, and the Five-Colored Radiance swirled, grinding the flagpole directly into powder.

Not far from Vast Mountain, at the White Bone Dao, White Bone Superior felt an immediate reaction the moment Chen Ming obliterated the Vengeful Soul Banner.

He stood up, narrowed his eyes, and said coldly, "The direction of Vast Mountain!"

"Those Black Wind Three Heroes were truly trash. They deserved to die, and they even caused my Vengeful Soul Banner to be damaged!"

"No matter who it is, they will pay the price!"

White Bone Superior waved his hand, and countless bones crawled out from the soil beneath his feet, piecing themselves together into a Bone Dragon.

As White Bone Superior mounted the Bone Dragon and ascended, a massive Colorful Feather Luan Bird flew overhead.

"Fairy Caiyi of the Chayi Sect. She is coming from the Vast Mountain Range. It seems the Myriad Laws Sect has truly retreated into the sea; otherwise, that woman, Fairy Caiyi, would never dare to loiter in the territory of Vast Mountain!"

"Since that is the case, I have nothing to worry about!"

"My White Bone Dao is desolate and lacks everything; otherwise, I wouldn't need to refine such unsightly Demonic Treasures as the Vengeful Soul Banner."

"With Vast Mountain no longer suppressed by a Spirit Condensation Realm expert, it is the perfect time for me to take it over!"

Thinking this, White Bone Superior's Bone Dragon rose from the ground.

Immediately following, countless more bones crawled out from the earth, assembling into various Bone Demons.

Some sprouted bone wings and flew in the sky, following the Bone Dragon.

Others rode upon the skeletons of beasts, galloping across the ground.

With such a massive display of force, nearby low-level cultivators hurriedly fled, fearing they would become Bone Soldiers under White Bone Superior's command.

Those great cultivators of the Spirit Condensation Realm, sensing the commotion, also cast their gazes toward the scene.

Fairy Caiyi, piloting her Colorful Feather Luan Bird, also turned back abruptly upon sensing White Bone Superior's movements.

"The Myriad Laws Sect has guarded the Vast Mountain Range for so many years; who knows what kind of traps they might have left behind!"

"Now that they have suddenly withdrawn their Spirit Condensation Realm experts, it might be a lure by the Myriad Laws Sect. It is perfect to let White Bone Superior go and test the waters! Once the situation in Vast Mountain is clear and I obtain news of the Myriad Laws Sect, it will be easier to make a trip to the Biyun Heavenly Palace!"

Fairy Caiyi stared at White Bone Superior and his massive army of bones, her thoughts racing.

Only a Spirit Condensation Realm expert without a foundation like White Bone Superior, ignorant of the depths of the situation, would dare to set his sights on Vast Mountain so quickly.

Those cultivators who knew the background of the Myriad Laws Sect were all still watching from the sidelines.

Even Fairy Caiyi had only dared to circle above Vast Mountain without daring to land, all for fear of falling into a trap.

However, having someone like White Bone Superior go and probe it was just right!

Fairy Caiyi changed the direction of her Colorful Feather Luan Bird and stopped not far from Vast Mountain, sensing the movements within.

Inside Vast Mountain, Qin Yuyan suddenly knelt before Chen Ming and said, "This is the second time you have saved me, True Person. Please, teach me the path of cultivation!"

"Why do you wish to cultivate?" Chen Ming asked.

"To be able to protect myself, and to protect everything I care about!" Qin Yuyan said firmly.

Chen Ming looked at him, somewhat lost in thought. This youth's temperament was resolute; he wondered if leading him onto the path of cultivation would be a blessing or a curse.
