Sour Feet? Ice Cream!
Sparks flew everywhere!
The moment the bone collided with the dagger, Hu Liena was jolted back half a step.
She looked down and saw that the grayish-brown hand bone was creaking and moving!
Without hesitation, Hu Liena swung her sword down in a backhand strike!
Click!
The arm bone broke off at the base and fell to the ground, sizzling and smoking.
After losing its arm, the skeleton froze for a moment, but still managed to throw out its other hand!
"Die!" Hu Liena shattered his skull.
But the bone palm still landed!
Fortunately, Ye Hua grabbed it with his other hand and crushed the bone palm!
Then, he kicked directly in the hard skin in front of the heart!
Sizzle sizzle--
Smoke was rising from the soles of Ye Hua's shoes.
Without hesitation, Ye Hua immediately threw out his shoe!
The skeleton crumbled and scattered, turning into white ash!
"The other five have moved too!"
Hu Liena imitated Ye Hua, swiftly kicking them in the chest.
All five skeletons were destroyed, and Hu Liena also gave up her shoes.
The slightly sour ice cream was left exposed to the air!
Hu Liena blushed slightly. "I... it's dangerous here, and I haven't washed in a while..."
Ye Hua used Yinglong Wings to create a water sphere, "It's alright."
Whoosh!
The sour aroma has disappeared.
A sweet aroma emerges.
Ye Hua took out the new shoes. "How about some?"
Hu Liena stared in disbelief, "How come you still have high heels?!"
"A women's style? My God... you?!"
Hu Liena instantly became alert.
She immediately thought of the bell that Ye Hua had taken out!
Is this some kind of bedroom fun...?
"You pervert! You bastard!"
Ye Hua touched the bridge of his nose. "You can wear men's shoes if you want, but you can wear mine."
"Don't even think about it," Hu Liena gritted her teeth. "Do you think I wasn't prepared?"
After saying that, she took out the same new shoes from her bracelet.
Ye Hua was stunned. The Spirit Hall was a large and powerful organization, so it was not unexpected that they would provide the Holy Maiden with Storage Soul Tool.
But to his surprise, Hu Liena's Storage Soul Tool was also a bracelet, and she was even wearing a wooden fox head!
"What are you looking at?" Hu Liena rolled her eyes. "You have them too!"
"But mine is cyan, and yours is orange; I am a cool color, and you are a warm color."
"... You actually came up with this?"
Hu Liena touched her forehead with her hand and took out several new shoes.
"Here, if you don't have shoes to wear, you can wear mine for now."
"Never mind then, I'm not used to wearing this."
Ye Hua took out new shoes and put them on, then tossed Hu Liena a set of Soul Guidance Weapon.
"Use this against them, otherwise we'll lose some melee weapons."
Hu Liena accepted it, "Thank you!"
Ye Hua looked down at the skeletons and found that they had turned into ashes and were scattered in the air.
"It seems that a hardened heart is the real issue," Ye Hua reminded him.
Hu Liena frowned. "This thing... it's like Evil Soul Master, manipulating corpses!"
"The further we go, the more cautious we must be!" Ye Hua picked up his Three-Eyed Icefire Guns.
Fortunately, after a short while, the Snow Empress spoke again.
The source of that eerie aura is not far from here!
Ye Hua put away the Spirit Bone and stepped forward.
The fog grew increasingly viscous, exerting a greater suppression on mental energy.
Amidst the mingled stench of blood and decay, Ye Hua discovered that the area of the [Skydream Domain] was being compressed.
100 meters, 60 meters, 40 meters...
The Snow Empress also noticed something was amiss.
No matter what, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm is Million-Year Soul Beast.
The domain brought by his Spirit Bone was suppressed so much?
Only when the road came to an end and a cave appeared before her did Snow Empress suddenly understand!
"Qilin," Snow Empress's voice suddenly tightened, "Something's not right here!"
"There are remnants of divine power in that cave, though faint, it definitely exists!"
"I suggest you turn back now. Even if a god only has a sliver of divine power, landing here can still allow them to intervene in the mortal realm!"
Even if there is an opportunity, you don't need to take the risk!
Ye Hua understood. "I knew it. The Skydream Domain has met its match."
So it was the residual divine power of the God Shura remaining in the human realm!
but...
"Snow Empress, the gods are too busy to deal with this."
Snow Empress was stunned. "What do you mean?"
Ye Hua simply smiled and said, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
The God Shura intervenes in the mortal realm?
Impossible! Absolutely impossible!
With System Bro's "This No Way Through" seal, let alone intervention, even contacting his successor is a pipe dream!
That was remnants of divine power, but what could it do?
Without God's command, it is nothing but a headless fly!
Seeing that she could not persuade him, Snow Empress remained silent.
Enough already, let's prepare for a fight!
Hopefully, that remaining divine power has been worn away by the passage of time!
Ye Hua entered the grotto, the [Skydream Domain] suddenly shrank to only ten meters in radius!
"It's been compressed to the limit; it won't decrease any further." Ye Hua's eyes narrowed slightly.
Hu Liena stayed close to him, constantly on guard, "The stench of blood here is even stronger than outside!"
Ye Hua nodded, his gaze sweeping over his feet.
The floor of the grotto was covered with fine, grayish-white debris that made a rustling sound when stepped on.
He crouched down, picked up a small amount, and discovered it was bone powder, as thick as half a finger!
The entire bottom of the grotto is covered with fragments of at least thousands of skeletons!
The skeletal remains that had not yet completely weathered were piled up on both sides of the cave, layer upon layer!
"My God!" Hu Liena exclaimed in shock, "The Slaughter City, no wonder it's the most dangerous place our teacher mentioned!"
"This is practically a mass grave!"
Ye Hua, however, made a discovery and began searching.
Rotten clothes, rusted weapons, shriveled skin...
Soon, he found a leg bone on the relatively intact skeleton, which still contained a faint trace of Soul Power.
"A hundred-year-old Spirit Bone." Ye Hua weighed it in his hand.
He then did the same thing and pulled out a total of three pieces.
Unfortunately, the number of years is not high, and the total doesn't even reach a thousand!
"Let's look for it," Ye Hua said as he walked and looked around, "Consider it a reward for our adventure."
Hu Liena also made some gains.
She drew a short blade from between the bones.
The blade was entirely black, its edge gleaming coldly in the darkness.
The handle is wrapped with dark Gold Trial silk thread, which feels warm to the touch.
Hu Liena tried swinging the blade twice; the blade sliced through the air, producing a faint hum!
It's far sharper than the one she's carrying!
The two continued exploring.
The unweathered skeletons gradually became more densely packed.
The number of Spirit Bone and weapons buried within them gradually increased.
Ye Hua subsequently found five more hundred-year-old Spirit Bone and one thousand-year-old right leg bone.
Hu Liena then selected two top-quality short daggers to replace her original equipment.
After going about a hundred paces deeper, the two arrived at a relatively open stone chamber.
There is a raised stone platform in the center, covered with Gold Trial moss, and objects on the moss emit a Gold Trial halo.
"A 50,000-year-old spiritual Spirit Bone!" Hu Liena's breath caught in her throat.
Her gaze was fixed on the Spirit Bone, her pupils flashing blood red!
Spiritual Spirit Bone are extremely rare, and those that appear once every 50,000 years are even rarer!
This is a godsend for her, given her Charm Soul Skill!
The teacher had already decided that the spiritual Spirit Bone reward for the champion should have belonged to her!
But Ye Hua intercepted it!
Who possesses those Spirit Bone now?
In Xiao Wu's hands?
In Ning Rongrong's hands?
Anyway, it's not in Hu Liena's hands!
The thought slithered into her mind like a venomous snake.
It lurked there, flicking its tongue, slowly gnawing away at her reason.
"No! Stop it!" Hu Liena struggled desperately.
As the blood-red color in his pupils slowly faded, Ye Hua abandoned his intention to attack.
But at that moment, the Spirit Bone suddenly burst forth with a red light!
"Aaaaaaahh...
Reason has been consumed by crimson!
Soul Power is running rampant out of control!
Hu Liena gripped her newly acquired short blade and slashed straight at Ye Hua's throat!
And at that very instant...
Snap!
The incense burner pendant she wore around her neck, a gift from Red Lady, suddenly shattered!
