Myriad Paths of the Dragon Emperor

Chapter 5693: The origin of the bones

Lu Ming and Tang Feng brought people into the skeleton great cosmos. However, there were almost no experts left in the skeleton great cosmos. Most of the remaining people were below the true immortal realm.

They had no interest in fighting anyone below the true immortal realm.

Although the skeleton great cosmos had been one of the main forces that had attacked the untainted land back then, it had not been as evil and vicious as the evil great cosmos, so there was no need to exterminate them.

Anyone below the true immortal realm could be kept as a slave.

They scanned the place with their immortal senses and searched for the resources and treasures left behind by the skeleton great cosmos. They plundered everything.

There was a Lake in the center of the skeleton great cosmos.

This Lake was extremely large and the water was as black as ink. It was as if the lake was formed by ink and the water was very viscous.

This was the number one Holy Land of the skeleton great universe.

This was because most of the living beings in the skeleton great cosmos had been born from this Lake.

This Lake was known as the land of origin by the living beings of the skeleton great cosmos.

Iʼve always wondered how the creatures of the skeleton great cosmos appeared. I didnʼt expect them to crawl out of this Lake.

Lu Ming sized up the lake, feeling very curious.

The living creatures in the skeleton great cosmos were all bones and could not reproduce. How did they increase their numbers and maintain prosperity? Lu Ming and the rest had always been curious about this.

After coming here, he learned about this place of origin from the living beings in this place and understood.

The living beings of the skeleton great cosmos were mainly divided into two groups.

A portion of them were skeletons that had walked out of the origin source grounds. The moment they walked out, they possessed intelligence.

The second part was about other life forms in universe ocean dying and rotting, turning into bone puppets. They gave birth to their own intelligence and then joined the skeleton great universe.

The other way was for other creatures in universe ocean to die and rot, turning into bone puppets without any sentience. The experts of the skeleton great cosmos would collect these bones and throw them into the land of origin. Over time, they would also gain sentience.

In the past, the skeleton great cosmos had been divided into two camps.

One camp was made up of people from the land of origin, while the other camp was made up of the skeletons of creatures from universe ocean.

However, all this while, it had always been the factions that had walked out of the land of origin that were more powerful and had more numbers.

”There must be a secret under this Lake. Iʼll explore it today.”

Tang Feng said.

”Iʼll give it a try.”

After saying that, flying chariot waved his hand and an immortal weapon flew out into the lake.

When the immortal weapon flew into the lake, the endless lake water wrapped around it, turning it as black as ink. Then, an amazing scene appeared. The material of the immortal weapon was slowly changing, and it glowed with a trace of white light.

The immortal weapon was actually turning into a skeleton.

The lake water was actually going to turn Immortal Weapons into bones.

”Collect!”

The flying chariot shouted and put away its immortal weapon. It poured its immortal energy into the weapon and forced out a jet of black gas. Only then did the immortal weapon recover.

However, he could also tell that although the lake water was powerful, it shouldnʼt be a threat to a half-step universe.

”Senior, letʼs go down and take a look.”

Lu Ming looked at Tang Feng.

”Letʼs go!” Tang Feng nodded.

Whoosh!

The two of them turned into two beams of celestial light and rushed into the lake.

As soon as they entered the lake, black Qi rushed towards them from the lake water, trying to drill into their bodies and turn them into bones.

However, the two of them were extremely powerful, and their immortal energy was intertwined with profound meaning, making them immortal and indestructible. They easily blocked the black gas.

The two of them quickly fell and rushed to the bottom of the lake.

The deeper he went, the more powerful the black gas that emerged from the lake water became.

But this also pointed out the direction for the two.

That was because the closer they were to the source, the stronger the power. As long as the two of them were close to the source of the power, they would definitely be able to find the source.

This Lake was extremely deep. The two of them had descended tens of thousands of miles and only reached the bottom after a few hours.

The bottom of the lake was pitch-black without a single ray of light, but the two of them could still see the bottom of the lake clearly with their celestial eyes.

He saw that the bottom of the lake was covered with bones.

Skeletons of all shapes and sizes were densely packed together. It was unknown how many there were.

Most of them were skeletons of creatures from universe ocean.

All these years, Wars had broken out in universe ocean, and there were creatures dying every moment. For millions of years, countless creatures had died.

It was obvious that the living beings of the skeleton great cosmos had secretly collected corpses and thrown them into the land of origin. After some time, they would definitely create a skeleton army.

If the skeleton great cosmos wasnʼt destroyed, it would definitely become stronger over time.

The chaos of war was truly more beneficial to the underworld.

In the Yang realm, the strength would become weaker and weaker following the Great War. Of course, this was excluding the divine soul great cosmos.

As for the underworld, its strength would increase with the chaos of war. This was the case for the evil Yin great cosmos and the skeleton great cosmos.

However, before the skeleton army could appear, the skeleton great cosmos had been destroyed.

The two of them felt the strength of the black gas in the lake, and then they headed in one direction.

Suddenly, some of the skeletons opened their eyes and pounced toward Lu Ming and Tang Feng.

”It seems that these skeletons have already developed a certain level of intelligence.”

letʼs go, ” Lu Ming said calmly. He pointed his finger and the Spearʼs gleam burst forth, shattering the skeletons. The spiritual intelligence that was not very strong was also completely shattered.

However, the shattered pieces of the bone armor were once again gathered together by the black Qi, forming a complete set of bone armor.

However, it no longer had any intelligence and was lying on the ground. As long as enough time passed, it would gain intelligence again.

The two of them ignored him and continued forward.

Following that, they were continuously attacked by the skeletons. These skeletons all had one thing in common, which was that they had developed a bit of intelligence.

However, his abilities were far inferior to Lu Ming and Tang Feng. He was easily crushed into pieces by the two of them, and his spiritual intelligence was obliterated.

”Eh, an immortal bone.”

Lu Ming discovered a golden skeleton that was pouncing toward him.

This golden skeleton was more powerful than the others, and it had a faint immortal Dao pressure.

These were the bones formed after a true immortal had fallen.

Back then, when the passageway to the primeval universe had opened, experts below the origin had entered the primeval universe. Among the top geniuses, there had been a natural immortal bone from the skeleton great cosmos.

He had died later on and was brought back by the people of the skeleton great cosmos. It was said that he could even give birth to a new sentient being later on. It seemed like he had placed him in this Lake.

Of course, the immortal bone in front of him wasnʼt the one from back then.

Bang!

The immortal bone was no exception. It exploded with a single finger from Lu Ming.

Even an Immortal King bone could be taken care of with just a finger in Lu Mingʼs hands, let alone a true immortal bone.

Finally, the two of them walked for a few more hours and finally arrived at the source.

In front of him, a huge ball was floating in the air.

If this ball was placed in the starry sky of the universe before the primeval universe, it would be as big as a star.

Endless black mist spread out from the ball.
