Ten thousand dragons' bones harbored a deadly menace, and an old monk of the Hanging Temple had a lifelong wish
Deep within the Extreme Abyss, the cold, dark seawater pressed so hard that space itself warped slightly. Ordinary Divine Realm cultivators would be crushed to dust by the water pressure of the laws within a hundred miles, let alone dive into it.
Yet gray-gold light rippled around Yun Che, and the surrounding seawater automatically parted into a clear passage. The freezing water pressure struck the golden radiance without raising so much as a ripple.
The deeper he went, the clearer the dragon bones' low moans became. Those were the howls of lingering souls that had remained for millions upon millions of years where ten thousand dragons lay buried, filled with endless resentment and unwillingness.
They followed the currents toward Yun Che's sea of consciousness, only to be stopped outside by the immunity barrier automatically released by the Divine Bestowal Seal, unable to disturb him in the slightest.
After he descended tens of thousands more feet, the underwater terrain abruptly opened up. Dragon bones gleaming with cold, gray-white light densely covered the pitch-black seabed. The largest stretched dozens of miles, while even the smallest were around ten feet long. Layer upon layer formed mountains and seas of bones. Ancient Dragon Qi seeped from the gaps, staining the entire region a bone-chilling gray-white.
The Divine Bestowal Seal in Yun Che's sea of consciousness suddenly began trembling violently. A ray of golden light pointed straight toward a hundred-thousand-foot mountain of dragon bones embedded in the seabed at the very center of the sea of bones.
At its summit, a pale-gold main dragon bone lay half-buried in bone dust, exuding a deep, primordial aura. It matched the primordial dragon bone described in the quest exactly.
He swiftly swept up to the summit of the dragon-bone peak and pressed his hand against the pale-gold bone.
