Point Allocation! Glazed Jade Bones!
Xi Lang clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug deep into his palms, oblivious to the trickle of blood seeping out. His eyes burned with raging fury, and his heart churned with hatred.
'Old man! Xi Zhenyue! You're clearly afraid that I'll grow up and threaten your position in the Xi Family!' Xi Lang roared inwardly.
He had always suspected that his father's death was not as simple as an accident, and what role Xi Zhenyue had played in it. This thought gnawed at his heart like a venomous snake.
Just as Xi Lang was lost in thought, a trusted subordinate rushed over and whispered, "Brother Lang, someone saw that kid named Dongfang Ri return. He just went to the Military Merit Office."
Xi Lang snapped back to reality, his eyes turning sinister as he asked, "Where's Zhang Meng? Still no news?"
The subordinate shook his head, a hint of fear on his face. "No... we haven't been able to get in touch with him. The people we sent to his usual haunts haven't found a trace of him either."
"Hmph!" Xi Lang snorted coldly, his eyes flashing with ferocity. "Looks like that piece of trash is really dead!"
An unnamed rage surged within him. The Dharma Comprehension Stone had been stolen, his breakthrough hopeless, and even the pawn he sent out to test the waters had been lost. This made Xi Lang feel that everything was going wrong, and he was extremely frustrated!
He needs an outlet for his frustrations!
And Dongfang Ri, who indirectly caused Zhang Meng's death and was likely a "fat sheep" with a weapon, was undoubtedly the best target!
"Gather your men immediately!" A cruel glint flashed in Xi Lang's eyes. "I'll show that arrogant brat what happens when he offends me, Xi Lang!"
The subordinate hesitated for a moment, then cautiously reminded him, "Brother Lang, that kid was able to take down Zhang Meng, so he's probably quite strong... Besides, if he stays in his residence and doesn't come out, we can't just force our way in..."
"What's there to be afraid of?!" Xi Lang interrupted him impatiently, his eyes filled with confidence in his own strength. 'I, a master of the Tendon Transformation Greater Completion, am I afraid of a kid who's only been at the Boundary for a few days?'
He sneered inwardly, 'Ordinary Bone Tempering Initiation Minor Accomplishment of bone forging are utterly helpless before me! Even those at the Bone Tempering Perfection, reaching the level of "Jet-Black Iron Bones," I can easily crush! And even those at the even higher level of "Radiant Golden Bones," I will still hold an absolute advantage!'
'Could that kid possibly be the legendary "Glazed Jade Bones," the pinnacle of Bone Tempering Limit? What a joke! How many years does it take for the entire Black Stone Fortress to produce a prodigy like that?'
Thinking this, Xi Lang felt even more confident and shouted, "Does he think he can hide forever? Keep a close eye on him! If he dares to show his face, strike immediately! I'll make him wish he were dead!"
Seeing that Xi Lang's mind was made up, the subordinate dared not say anything more and quickly replied, "Yes! I'll go and make the arrangements right away!"
Watching his subordinate's departing figure, a ruthless glint flashed in Xi Lang's eyes: ' Dongfang Ri... you'd better pray you never get out!'
Meanwhile, Dongfang Yueming returned to his somewhat simple dwelling, casually closing the door to shut out the noise from the outside world.
He couldn't wait to bring up the attribute panel again, his eyes falling on the newly acquired "Ten Thousand Beasts Bone Tempering Method" and the string of words "(0/15, not yet Entry)" after it, a confident smile curving his lips.
"Start!"
With a thought, points flowed into the technique like water!
[Ten Thousand Beasts Bone Tempering Method (0/45, Entry)]
Without any pause, Dongfang Yueming put in points again.
[Ten Thousand Beasts Bone Tempering Method (0/75, Minor Accomplishment)]
The numbers on the panel changed rapidly, and his bones began to make subtle crackling sounds, as if countless tiny energies were flowing and being tempered within them.
Without hesitation, he Point Allocation!
[Ten Thousand Beasts Bone Tempering Method (0/150, Major Accomplishment)]
The bones became more resilient, faintly gleaming with a deep luster, far surpassing the previous "Radiant Golden Bones".
"Not enough!" Dongfang Yueming's eyes sharpened as she poured all the remaining points into the pot in one go!
[Ten Thousand Beasts Bone Tempering Method (Perfection)]
Boom!
The moment his cultivation technique reached its Perfection, Dongfang Yueming's entire body trembled violently! An indescribable transformative power swept through his body!
He could clearly feel that every bone in his body was undergoing a tremendous transformation. His originally hard bones seemed to be tempered and baptized by an invisible divine fire, all impurities were removed, and they became crystal clear, just like the finest Liuli and jade!
A faint, seven-colored halo seeped from deep within his bones, illuminating his entire body with a radiant glow, making him appear divine and extraordinary!
An unprecedented sense of power filled his limbs and bones, as if a single punch could shake mountains!
Glazed Jade Bones! The legendary ultimate Perfection of the Bone Forging Realm!
Feeling the surging power within his body and the flawless state of his bones, Dongfang Yueming took a deep breath, a glint of light One Flash in his eyes.
'This power... it certainly didn't disappoint!' He nodded in satisfaction, then a thought crossed his mind. 'Now that my strength has increased, it's time to investigate that Xi Lang's background. Knowing your enemy is the key to victory.'
