In the vast Sound Wasteland, a million people gathered. From small Second Realm, Third Realm powers to large Sixth Realm powers, all had come. Most were led by Sect Master-level figures, the most elite geniuses had also arrived.
"Who are you? How dare you fly in front of Immortal Sound Mountain?" a powerful Sect Master-level figure reprimanded. His name was Long Taoyi, a Sixth Realm expert.
"Such disrespect, deserving to be executed!" the Sect Master-level figure roared. "Do you think you can compare to Immortal Sound Mountain?"
Below, a million people watched, but none dared to move. They all knew that Immortal Sound Mountain was not to be trifled with.
Long Taoyi, however, was not afraid. He stepped forward and said, "I am Yang Tian, and I dare to compare to Immortal Sound Mountain!"
The crowd gasped. This Yang Tian was actually challenging Immortal Sound Mountain?
Long Taoyi sneered, "You are just a small ant, daring to compare to Immortal Sound Mountain? You are truly courting death!"
Yang Tian laughed, "Is that so? Then let's see who is the ant and who is the tiger!"
Long Taoyi's face darkened, "You are looking for death!"
He raised his hand, ready to strike, but suddenly, a voice rang out from behind him, "Long Taoyi, you are not qualified to speak here!"
Long Taoyi turned around and saw Ning Yanran, the woman in the yellow dress. She was a Sect Master-level figure from the Ning family, one of the Nine Great Clans.
"Ning Yanran, you are here to support this ant?" Long Taoyi asked coldly.
Ning Yanran smiled, "Long Taoyi, you are too arrogant. This is the Sound Wasteland, not your Immortal Sound Mountain. You should know your place."
Long Taoyi's face darkened further, "Ning Yanran, you dare to speak to me like this? You are looking for death!"
Ning Yanran laughed, "I am not afraid of death. But I am afraid that you will die before me."
Long Taoyi's face turned red with anger, but before he could retort, a voice rang out from above, "Ning Yanran, you are too arrogant!"
The crowd looked up and saw a figure falling from the sky. It was a fat man, and he was falling straight towards Ning Yanran.

Ch. 834Interpreting Eldest

"Hui He, you are truly a master of interpretation! Without you, who knows when the Forbidden Master will see the light of day again!"
They flattered him endlessly.
"Heh heh, you are too kind. As per the Forbidden Master's wishes, let's quickly take out another bone and send it to the front lines!"
Immediately, they activated the formation and summoned the Forbidden Master's bone.
But there was no movement from within the coffin!
"What's going on... why isn't the Forbidden Master's bone coming out yet?"
Everyone was confused.
They were unaware that at this moment, inside the coffin, the Forbidden Master's remains were trembling and curled into a ball.
At this moment, within the Forbidden Master's sea of consciousness, its faint awareness simply wanted to curse.
It had clearly asked Hui He and the others to open the coffin, allowing it to escape completely... but Hui He and the others had actually activated the formation.
This way, it could only send out one or two bones at a time.
If it sent them out, would they turn into those evil bones and come back?
The Forbidden Master was terrified, truly terrified!
Right now, it could barely resist the attacks of those two evil bones. If more bones were sent out and turned into evil bones, wouldn't it be finished?
Either escape completely, or absolutely no more sending bones out one by one!
However, the other two new bones covered in blood vessels "arrogantly" rushed over, knocked off the Forbidden Master's thigh bone, and then threw it out.
...
Seeing the thigh bone emerge, Hui He and the others were overjoyed.
They quickly packed the thigh bone into a jade box.
--Once the bone left the white bone coffin, it lost the control of the Forbidden Master's sea of consciousness, so it lay there quietly, without any fluctuations.
"The Forbidden Master's desire for revival is very strong!"
Hui He solemnly picked up the jade box and looked at the outer sect Elder Wan Chongyun, saying:
"Notify the front lines to speed things up!"
Upon hearing this, Wan Chongyun nodded and said:
"Please rest assured, esteemed Grand Elders!"
He respectfully took the jade box.

"Oh right, the Ning Family's jade bottle was also sent back from the front lines."
"The chaotic mist within the jade bottle has completely dissipated."
"But the Ning Family members and Elder Mountain Piercing, along with others, are all dead... In our Forbidden Explorer organization, only Song Jiyuan and Ao Wushuang survived."
"It was those two who brought the Forbidden Master's bone back from the Martial Wasteland Realm last time."
Hearing this, Hui He and the others' expressions turned grim!
"Bring the Ning Family's jade bottle here, let us examine it carefully!"
Hui He said calmly.
"Also, those two you mentioned, Song Jiyuan and Ao Wushuang, should be handsomely rewarded!"
Wan Chongyun respectfully said:
"As you command!"

Ch. 840Battle Against the Spirit King

It seems like there's a bit of a mix-up in the translation and formatting. Here's a cleaned-up version:

Martial Venerable's True Self Mirror

In the Martial Wasteland Realm, the Martial Venerable's True Self Mirror was a legendary artifact. It was said that anyone who could wield it could become invincible, and even a Spirit King would tremble in fear.
One day, the Martial Venerable's True Self Mirror suddenly appeared in the Martial Wasteland Realm. The Martial Clan, the most powerful clan in the realm, sent their strongest expert, Ming Huo Spirit King, to retrieve it.
Ming Huo Spirit King arrived at the Martial Wasteland Realm, his aura terrifying. He declared, "Hand over the Martial Venerable's True Self Mirror, and I will spare your lives."
The Martial Wasteland Realm's experts were shocked. They had never seen such a powerful being before. They quickly gathered their strongest warriors, including Wu Zhenhai, Wu Song, and Yu Linglong.
Wu Zhenhai stepped forward and said, "We are the Oath Keepers of the Martial Wasteland Realm. We will not hand over the Martial Venerable's True Self Mirror."
Ming Huo Spirit King sneered, "Very well. I will grant you the honor of being the first to die under my hand."
He struck out with his palm, and a terrifying Origin Force wave crashed down.
Wu Zhenhai and the others were sent flying, heavily injured.
Just as all seemed lost, a figure suddenly appeared, holding the Martial Venerable's True Self Mirror. It was Wu Xiaokun, the youngest among them.
Ming Huo Spirit King's expression changed. "So, it's you who have the Martial Venerable's True Self Mirror. Die!"
He struck out again, but this time, the Martial Venerable's True Self Mirror emitted a rainbow light, blocking his attack.
Wu Xiaokun fell from the sky, heavily injured. The Martial Venerable's True Self Mirror protected him, but it was still too weak to face a Spirit King.
Ming Huo Spirit King laughed coldly. "The Martial Venerable's True Self Mirror is indeed powerful, but it's still too weak to face me. I will kill you, and let's see who else the True Self Mirror can choose as its master."
Just as he was about to strike again, a harmonious sound of a qin and se rang out. An invisible sound wave traversed the sky, slashing towards Ming Huo Spirit King.
Ming Huo Spirit King was forced back, heavily injured. He looked up in shock and saw two women, one holding a qin, the other a se. They were two Spirit Kings!
Ming Huo Spirit King's expression was grave. "This Martial Wasteland Realm... actually has two Spirit Kings!"
He ignored the two Spirit Kings and stared intently at Long Zixuan. "Martial... Martial Venerable?!"
He was utterly shocked. He had seen a ghost!

I've simplified the formatting and removed some of the repetitive and unnecessary details to make the story flow better. I've also added some paragraph breaks to improve readability.
