Chapter 171: Opening of Myriad Bone Forest
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Not long after Lu Yuan returned from the Heavenly Devil Palace, he dispatched his clone to the Myriad Bone Forest.
At present, there was not much time left until the opening of the Forbidden Area, the Myriad Bone Forest.
The four princes of the Yue Dynasty had organized their forces and gathered around the Myriad Bone Forest
After the Myriad Bone Forest opened, they planned to send their subordinates inside to search for the scattered Dragon Energy.
As for the Empire’s luck like Dragon Energy, Wen Yu and the others naturally would not let it go. This was their main goal for this mission.
Compared to hunting down the person with luck, these ownerless Dragon Energy sources contained even more luck value.
Moreover, the risk involved in collecting them was not as high as battling the person with the luck.
They had witnessed the enormous price paid by Bi Fang and Chen Yan in their pursuit of Bai Dafei, where one lost his life and the other was severely injured.
The appearance of Bai Dafei near Lu Yuan’s clone might be influenced by his luck. Otherwise, it would have been uncertain if they could have rescued Bai Dafei.
Therefore, for the Heavenly Devils, hunting down the person with luck was a high-risk, high-reward endeavor.
However, collecting Dragon Energy presented a low-risk, high-reward opportunity.
That was why Wen Yu and the others had spent so much effort to enter the Myriad Bone Forest.
And they weren’t the only ones interested in obtaining this Dragon Energy.
Lu Yuan was also interested in this Dragon Energy.
The Heavenly Devils were able to absorb this Dragon Energy.
Lu Yuan could do the same.
Lu Yuan was getting closer and closer to achieving Core Formation through the way of the heavens.
Once he found the White Bone Crystal in the Atyriad Bone Forest and the Heavenly Saint Lotus Root, he would be able to begin refining the golden core creation pill.
With Lu Yuan’s current pill refinement skill and a significant amount of luck, the process of refining the golden core creation pill would most likely proceed smoothly.
Lu Yuan was fully confident in his ability to successfully refine the golden core creation pill.
As for obtaining the Heavenly Saint Lotus Root, Lu Yuan had a plan.
Unlike the Myriad Bone Forest, which only opened periodically. The Heavenly Saint Pond, where the Heavenly Saint Lotus Root was located, was a special cultivation place.
Although the Heavenly Saint Lotus Root was rare, with dedicated effort, there was still a chance to find it.
The Heavenly Saint Pond was situated within the territory of the Third Prince.
Moreover, the Heavenly Saint Lotus Root had been offered as a reward by the Third Prince.
As long as he could find the five streams of Dragon Energy, Lu Yuan would be able to exchange them for the Heavenly Saint Lotus Root from the Third Prince’s treasure vault.
Therefore, this journey to the Myriad Bone Forest was extremely important to Lu Yuan.
If Lu Yuan could find five streams of Dragon Energy and the White Bone Crystal in the Myriad Bone Forest on this trip, he would be able to fulfill all the requirements for refining the golden core creation pill.
Therefore, Lu Yuan attached great importance to this journey to the Myriad Bone Forest.
On the outskirts of the Myriad Bone Forest.
“Senior Brother Fu, the Myriad Bone Forest is about to open.”
Fu Jiu, who was sitting in the resting area, stood up calmly when he heard this.
In front of him was a respectful Shixian Sect disciple.
This time, the Forbidden Area known as the Myriad Bone Forest unexpectedly attracted Daozi Fu Jiu, ranked sixth on the Mortal Rank, from the Shixian Sect.
Unlike the usual demonic demeanor of Shixian Sect disciples, Fu Jiu appeared relatively normal. However, this normalcy was only in comparison to the other disciples of the Shixian Sect.
Fu Jiu gave the impression of being an emotionless machine.
Not only did he have an ice-cold face all year round, but even his skin color was so fair.
One would feel as if they were not facing a living person but a long-dead zombie.
When Fu Jiu stood up, the bronze coffin he had been carrying on his back also stood upright.
The seal of the coffin was adorned with numerous yellow runes.
These runes were like chains, tightly sealing the coffin.
Upon seeing Fu Jiu’s gaze directed at them, the disciples of the Shixian Sect trembled in fear.
After all, no one knew better than them the level of ruthlessness hidden beneath Fu Jiu’s cold exterior.
He was not a zombie, but he surpassed a zombie in terms of coldness.
Fu Jiu looked at the disciple, and after a moment, he spoke, “Let’s go.”
The Shixian Sect disciple felt as if he had been granted amnesty and immediately responded, “Yes!”
As Fu Jiu walked toward the resting area, several disciples of the Shixian Sect immediately followed.
At a rough glance, there were as many as ten Shixian Sect disciples.
In the vicinity of the camp, there were also cultivators from other sects such as Yuchan Sect, Tianji Sect, Qingyun Sect, and more.
However, unlike in the outside world, they had no intention of engaging in a confrontation with Fu Jiu at this moment.
Even cultivators who did not know about the Path of Immortal Ascension before had gathered some information about the Path of Immortal Ascension after a few years of exploration.
Not to mention that many cultivators had already known about the existence of the Path for Immortal Ascension before entering the Full Moon Mountain range.
Therefore, they were not in the mood to concern themselves with the war between the righteous and devilish sects. Their minds were solely focused on the Path for Immortal Ascension.
If there were indeed factions, then the cultivator’s faction was divided based on the influences of the four princes.
However, even within the same faction, cultivators did not trust each other.
Once inside the Myriad Bone Forest, nobody knew what would unfold.
Under the apprehensive gaze of everyone present, Fu Jiu proceeded step by step toward the Myriad Bone Forest.
The four princes used their royal bloodline as the key, and the mist that pervaded the surroundings of the Myriad Bone Forest began to slowly dissipate.
Not long after, a bell rang and echoed from the center of the Myriad Bone Forest.
This bell signified the official opening of the Myriad Bone Forest.
Almost instantly, the cultivators marched in unison toward the Forbidden Area, the Myriad Bone Forest.
Fu Jiu and his companions were no exception.
In different locations, other cultivators also entered the Myriad Bone Forest the moment the bell rang.
Chen Yan looked at the Myriad Bone Forest in front of him and made a silent vow.
Once he absorbed enough Dragon Energy and cultivated his Scarlet Flame Stallion to a certain extent, he would seek revenge on Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan had now become Chen Yan’s heart demon.
Chen Yan felt that he couldn’t find peace of mind unless he killed him.
Thinking of this, Chen Yan, who was disguised as an ordinary cultivator, directly entered the Myriad Bones Forest.
On the eastern side of the Myriad Bone Forest.
“Sir, aren’t we going in yet?”
Shan Yao looked at the numerous cultivators entering the Myriad Bone Forest and couldn’t help but ask Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan observed the impatient cultivators around him and smiled as he replied, “Shan Yao, there are certain matters… It’s not necessarily better to act in haste.”
Upon hearing these words, Shan Yao felt somewhat puzzled.
Since everyone else had already entered, wouldn’t they be left behind if they didn’t go in as well?
