Chapter 72: Chapter 65: Three Treasures Chapter 72: Chapter 65: Three Treasures “””
Outside the White Bone Hall, numerous necromantic energies converged.
Then, a young man with red hair and red eyes was transported out, holding a star card emitting a radiant blue light.
“Hellfire?
Getting this card was worth rushing over from South Pole City so quickly!”
Geng Qiuyi looked at the blue star card in his hand, his face full of joy.
Passing the third trial of the White Bone Hall, he finally got this blue-grade fire element star card, very suitable for himself.
“Let’s use this ‘Hellfire’ as my soul skill after breaking through to the silver stage!”
Geng Qiuyi nodded in satisfaction, waved his hand to store the card into his ring, and planned to search the secret realm one last time before leaving.
But before he could take two steps, he suddenly heard a sharp whistling sound above his head.
Geng Qiuyi looked up and saw a black figure plummeting from the sky like a cannonball!
“Damn!”
Geng Qiuyi’s expression changed drastically, his star power surged, and he suddenly leaped to the side!
“Bang!!”
A loud crash followed, smoke and dust rose violently, and large amounts of white air currents roiled and spread around like waves!
In no time, a rather disheveled red figure was blasted out.
Ɲ0νǤօ.сο
Geng Qiuyi rolled on the ground for two whole circles before stabilizing and standing up again.
“Damn it!!”
Geng Qiuyi’s face was extremely grim, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, and his clothes were shredded by the powerful impact just now.
Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Geng Qiuyi squinted his eyes and looked ahead.
The smoke and dust gradually dissipated, revealing a huge crater several meters in diameter.
A sturdy, grim-looking young man in black slowly walked out, white vapors swirling around his arms.
“Hiss…”
Tu Yuan slowly exhaled a white vapor.
The vapor shot out like an arrow, hitting the ground and creating another small pit!
“Did you ambush me?” Geng Qiuyi frowned and said in a deep voice, “Who are you?”
Tu Yuan’s expression remained calm: “Who I am is not important.
Hand over the reward you got from the third layer of the White Bone Hall.”
“So you want to rob me…” Geng Qiuyi sized up Tu Yuan and suddenly realized, “I understand now.
You must be the one who took the first reward, right?”
Geng Qiuyi’s mouth curled into a sneer as he took a step forward.
Scorching orange-red flames surged out from his body!
“Since you’re out to rob someone, you’re obviously no good.
I won’t feel guilty taking your stuff either.”
The ring on Tu Yuan’s hand flashed, and a blue star card appeared in his hand.
“If you have the skill, come and get it.”
Tu Yuan’s voice was cold and indifferent, showing no concern that this top talent from South Pole Academy could take the blue card from his hands.
“Pretentious!”
Geng Qiuyi sneered and was about to make a move, but just then, he seemed to sense something and turned his head to look behind him.
“So you have helpers.
No wonder you’re so confident…” Geng Qiuyi’s expression darkened slightly.
Two more figures slowly surrounded him from behind.
One was a lively girl in a school uniform.
The other was a young man with a delicate face and a rosy complexion.
It was Mo Wenwen and Dou Xiao.
With Mo Wenwen’s help, Dou Xiao had devoured a lot of essence blood over the past few days.
Although breaking through to the silver stage was still out of reach due to the massive loss of accumulated essence blood, his strength had mostly recovered thanks to the blood secret technique.
This was the power of blood.
As long as there was enough essence blood, any serious injury could be healed!
Mo Wenwen waved her hand, and a huge, ugly ghost face with three eyes appeared behind her amidst swirling black smoke.
The ghost face opened its mouth, and one by one, young men and women with vacant expressions staggered out.
This scene was quite eerie.
Seeing the three familiar faces among the group, Geng Qiuyi’s expression changed.
“Stand tall, Dong Lai, Ah Ping?!”
“Hehe, it seems you have acquaintances here?” Mo Wenwen chuckled, gesturing for the three to come forward.
“These three, huh?
They were indeed tough.
I had to sacrifice seven insect servants to catch them.
My Black Soul Gu is almost running out…”
“What did you do to them?!”
“Nothing much…
just controlling them temporarily.
Of course, if I took the time to eat their brains, that would be interesting too~ but not very much fun.”
Geng Qiuyi lowered his head slightly, his fists clenched so tightly that his fingernails almost dug into his flesh, trying hard to suppress his anger.
Anger could make a person irrational and interfere with judgment in battle.
Tu Yuan glanced at Geng Qiuyi and said flatly, “Put down the star card in your hand, and we’ll let you go.”
“Just let him go like that?” Dou Xiao raised an eyebrow, “No, his essence blood is very dense.
I need…”
Before Dou Xiao could finish, he felt a chill on his back.
Turning his head, he saw Tu Yuan staring at him expressionlessly.
“Che~” Dou Xiao shrugged.
The three of them ganging up on one couldn’t handle it?
Even if it was a silver stage opponent, they had killed nearly twenty silver stage foes together!
Was there a need to be so afraid?
But Dou Xiao ultimately didn’t say anything more.
Although the three had no hierarchical differences, Tu Yuan usually made the decisions when they acted together.
Tu Yuan knew that anyone who could pass the third layer of the White Bone Hall wasn’t ordinary.
The difficulty was such that even he almost failed!
So if they could intimidate the person in front of them to give up the blue card and leave, that would be the best outcome.
“Do you really think you have me cornered?”
Geng Qiuyi slowly raised his head, and fiery lights flickered in his eyes.
Suddenly, a flame dragon illusion flew out from his body, coiling around him!
Layer upon layer of fierce flame spread out like a sea of fire.
Geng Qiuyi bathed in this sea of fire, his aura surged!
“Come!” Geng Qiuyi’s gaze swept across Tu Yuan and the other two, “All three of you, come at me together!”
…
Su Yuan’s vision blurred, and he was now in the third layer of the White Bone Hall.
After slaughtering intensely for only two hours and killing a Black Wings Demon, Su Yuan successfully reached this third layer.
This third layer was no longer a maze but a dark, cold graveyard filled with necromantic elements.
The graveyard was filled with many decayed tombstones.
In the center were three large red tombstones, two people tall.
Two of the three red tombstones were already covered in cracks, leaving only the last one relatively intact.
Su Yuan stepped forward to examine it.
There were some scribbled writings on the tombstone.
Unlike the runes seen outside, these writings were in the Blue Sea Star General Language.
Reading carefully, Su Yuan learned about the origin of the White Bone Hall.
This White Bone Hall was named the Bone Maze.
Its owner was “Saki,” a magician from the Western Continent of Blue Sea Star.
Later, Saki was severely injured and could only use a secret technique to transform into an undead.
At first, Saki could still travel between the Western Continent and Hell with his half-undead body and some secret techniques.
But eventually, he fell into Hell completely, unable to return to Blue Sea Star.
Years later, gravely injured again and nearing death, Saki left part of his inheritance, which became the White Bone Hall.
Since Saki excelled in necromancy and fire magic, his inheritance was primarily focused on these two areas.
Every tombstone in the graveyard corresponded to an undead creature from Hell.
Defeating them would grant at least an elite-grade item.
The central three red tombstones contained three master-grade (blue) treasures!
These were a high-damage fire element star card, a rare summon card from the sixth layer of Hell, and…
a summoning star device from Hell.
Su Yuan analyzed the last tombstone: “So this tombstone corresponds to a summoning star device?
No wonder the first two picked the fire element star card and the rare summon card from the sixth layer of Hell.”
It’s not that the summoning star device wasn’t strong, but summoners were rare to start with.
Saki’s device from Hell likely specialized in necromancy.
If not used personally, such an item would be difficult to sell unless to a specific summoner.
In short, this item wouldn’t immediately enhance one’s strength or wealth, making it somewhat of a scrap.
The other two master-grade treasures, the top-tier fire element star card, required no explanation—fire element was the most populated branch among elemental star card masters.
High-quality fire element star cards were in high demand.
As for the rare summon card from the sixth layer of Hell, for non-summoners, it was practical to embed one or two summon cards due to skill slots.
These summon cards didn’t need to form a system.
Practicality was the key.
The sixth layer of Hell and beyond was also known as the Abyss, where demons roamed.
This master-grade rare summon card could likely summon a master demon.
The value of a master demon was simply its sheer strength.
“Others have taken the two master-grade items.
There’s no other choice.
I can’t pick an elite-grade item.
Besides, I already have the Nether Wolf Summon, an undead species.
This summoning star device should be useful!”
Without further thought, Su Yuan placed his hand on the tombstone, communicating with it using star power.
Gradually, the tombstone glowed red, pulling Su Yuan into it in an instant…
