"An Origin-Bone Demonic Artifact! What is that? Why would Chi You refine his own bones into these demonic artifacts?" An inexplicable unease stirred in Shen Luo's heart, and he hurriedly asked.
"This is one of Chi You's innate divine abilities, called the Origin Bone Reincarnation Path. It allows him to infuse his innate demonic qi and Divine Soul power into six Origin-Bone Demonic Artifacts. Once all six gather together, Chi You can return to life," the Xuanyuan Remnant Soul said.
"To think such a thing exists!" Shen Luo froze, and his expression immediately turned grim.
"Senior, are you saying that the Chi You inside the seal is merely an empty shell, and that he already slipped free like a cicada shedding its husk? Impossible! During the Demonic Calamity War, so many mighty experts of the Three Realms joined forces. How could none of them have noticed this trick of his?" Disbelief filled Nie Caizhu's face, and she could not help arguing.
"The Origin Bone Reincarnation Path is a secret divine ability Chi You created covertly during the Battle of Zhuolu. Even I learned of it only by chance, let alone the people of today's Three Realms. Moreover, it is extraordinarily ingenious. After the Origin Bone leaves his body, no abnormalities appear for a short time. It is quite possible to cross the sea under heaven's unsuspecting eyes," the Xuanyuan Remnant Soul said slowly.
Nie Caizhu opened her mouth as if to argue further, but finally gave up in dejection.
"If everything is as you say, Senior, Chi You actually escaped more than a hundred years ago. Why would he scatter his Origin Bone everywhere instead of resurrecting immediately? Could those bones need to wait more than a hundred years before they can reunite and form a body?" Shen Luo asked
