Chapter 448 Being a Skeleton
He had never heard that there was a bone in the usually soft heart. Or was it a heart calculus? There was no such statement.
“This is a Heaven-Earth Blood Bone. Little Chap Ding, have a good look. See what’s on the bone.” The sword ancestor sighed with emotion.
Ding Hao used the Body Oven Realm, the most powerful consciousness, carefully scanning and observing that thumb-sized bone, and found that beneath the crystal-like surface was a layer with a network of blood vessels, which was so thin that they were invisible to the naked eye. The strands, like spider webs, were densely connected and penetrated the entire Heaven-Earth Blood Bone. They were like capillaries and delivered some kind of energy.
After careful observation, Ding Hao felt a little dizzy.
The lines of those blood shoots were similar to a profound inscription Formation, but it was difficult to explain with ordinary Word Grammar. It should be a kind of natural Divine Sense, like the trajectory of the sun, the moon and the stars.
“The so-called ‘Heaven-Earth Blood Bone’ appears in some powerful and almost psychic beasts. In the long years, they have realized the laws of heaven and earth, absorbing the spiritual energy of creation, and created it unconsciously. The Word Form in the bone has a mysterious function that can communicate with the laws of heaven and earth, because it was originally created by adhering to heaven and earth. This kind of blood bone is very rare. Of the hundreds of thousands of beasts, one may be able to condense bleeding bones; the ape’s Magic Skill of Three Heads, Six Arms comes from this small blood bone...”
The Sword Master explained roughly.
Ding Hao nodded.
In that case, the Heaven-Earth Blood Bone was truly extraordinarily precious.
The giant ape’s body was like a mountain, but it had condensed such a small piece, which was less than a tenth of a millionth of its volume.
“Do I also need to refine this blood bone into my heart to have the three-headed, six-armed magical power?” When Ding Hao thought of planting such a stone-like bone in his heart, he felt nauseous. While rejecting the idea, he expectedly asked, “Should it be the way to learn the Word Form and master the magical changes through inscriptions?”
The Saber Master laughed and explained in advance, “You don’t need to meld it with your heart. After all, humans and monsters have different body structures. You only need to refine it into your dantian’s Qi seeds. As it merges with the essence and blood of the White Ape, and when you next cast the Beast Transform, you will get the magical power of Three Heads, Six Arms. The White Ape and this ape have the same ancestors, so the two are compatible. The lines in the blood bone are the principles of the magical skills of Three Heads, Six Arms. As for the natural Word Form, it is hard to understand by the way of Human Tribe inscriptions...”
Ding Hao understood.
That would be easy.
Ding Hao placed that piece of Heaven-Earth Blood Bone on the palm of his hand, and used the Heaven Fire to wrap it in, slowly roasting and refining. The whole blood bone finally melted and integrated into Ding Hao’s palm little by little. The liquid flowed along the Ren Meridian of the six extra-channels, slowly reaching his middle dantian.
Looking inside, Ding Hao found that the blood bone merged into the seeds of the Heaven Fire Qi Seed.
He manipulated the essence of the White Ape to merge with that blood bone.
Ding Hao originally thought that it would be a difficult process, but the moment the blood bone touched his blood essence, it immediately had a wonderful reaction. The blood essence actively penetrated the blood bone and flowed along those strands automatically, as if they were inherently indivisible.
It worked!
A strange feeling poured into Ding Hao’s heart, and there was a clearness in his brain...
The space in that cave was slightly narrow, otherwise, Ding Hao would try his skill of Beast Transform to feel the power of Three Heads, Six Arms.
He was very happy with the gain.
Deep in Ding Hao’s heart, he wanted to be Sun Wukong, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, since he was a child in his previous life. Whenever he became the Baleful Devil White Ape, he felt he was more like the invincible Sun Dasheng. Since he had mastered the magical power of Three Heads, Six Arms, it undoubtedly echoed one of Sun Dasheng’s magical powers. Note: Sun Wukong, another name being Sun Dasheng, is a character of “Journey to the West,” one of the famous traditional novels in China.
After merging with the Heaven-Earth Blood Bone, Ding Hao carefully stored the hearts of the four powerful beasts.
According to the two old masters’ words, those four hearts would be of great use in the future.
It was until then that Ding Hao had time to carefully observe the Yin and Yang Jade in Stone, which he had gotten at the risk of his life.
Ding Hao took it out slowly from his storage ring. The silver light covered Ding Hao’s palm and shone the entire dim cave. It was a holy fist-sized jelly-like soft liquid, sliding slowly in his hand. It looked like a cute white rabbit with spirituality, releasing a faint wave of panic and fear, and wanted to escape from Ding Hao’s palm, but could not break open the Eternal Sky Immortal Light Seal.
“Yin and Yang Jade in Stone... Haha! That’s a good thing!” the two old masters said in admiration.
“What is this?” Ding Hao could feel the mystery of the rabbit-like thing, but knew nothing about it.
“Jade in Stone is a true essence of heaven and earth. Only in the Fairyland full of spiritual Qi can it be slowly bred. It is not of flesh and blood, but it has intelligence. To some extent, it’s the incarnation of the laws of heaven and earth. Millions of years ago, the laws of heaven and earth had not changed and there were such treasures in the Land of Infinity, because it was at the beginning of time. Because of being born from stones, and their shape being similar to crystal jade, it was named Jade in Stone. There are many treasures, such as Heart of Heaven and Earth, Son of Fate... ”
The Saber Master had a profound knowledge. He was very familiar with the history of treasures.
“Heart of Heaven and Earth? Son of Fate?” Ding Hao was surprised. Those treasures could be named with “Heaven and Earth” by the strong experts of ancient times. That was truly extraordinary.
“The creation of the Jade in Stone requires long years, and because of different innate conditions, such as the formation of terrain, veins, astronomical phenomena, waters, and souls, it is divided into seventeen different types of jade. I would estimate that the piece you’re holding is about 100,000 years old. It now has some simple wisdom. It’s mainly composed of Yin and Yang, so it is called Yin Yang Jade in Stone. With Yin and Yang in it, this piece of jade is one of the four most precious jades... Little Chap Ding, you’re a lucky dog! This Yin Yang Jade in Stone is innately compatible with your ‘Saintly Being of Saber and Sword’. Your physique is going to be improved to the extreme!”
The Sword Master was not to be outdone.
Ding Hao’s eyes brightened. Checkk new ovel chpters at novlbin(.)com
Whatever the treasure was, as long as it could improve his strength, it would be of great value.
“How do I use it?” Ding Hao interrupted the two old masters showing off their knowledge and asked sharply.
“Drink it!” the Saber Master said.
“Eat it!” the Sword Master said.
Ding Hao happily placed the jade in his mouth. Suddenly, he realized something, and asked with a frown, “This jade contains a large amount of power. It scalded or frostbit me when I held it. Isn’t it more dangerous if I swallow it?”
The Saber Master said with a grin, “Do you remember the process of absorbing the Yin Yang Condensing Spirit earth vein, in the underground ruins of the ancient Sect located in the Western Rock Mountain Range?”
Ding Hao felt a chill.
It was the worst period of his life since he had appeared in that world. The pain from the soul made him almost cramp.
“From ancient times to the present, all the supreme geniuses who cherish their talent have suffered all kinds of pains. You only see how the five Gods of War from Human Tribe are extremely respected nowadays. All the human beings have to obey their orders, but what you don’t know is all the things that happened when they were young, haha...” There were more words implied behind what the Sword Master said.
Ding Hao gritted his teeth, swallowed the Yin Yang Jade in Stone, and then immediately operated the Body Oven Realm of Mind Essential to refine it.
Crack!
There was a soft sound.
Ding Hao’s eyes widened, and he was instantly frozen in ice, and a thick layer of black ice formed on his body.
But the next moment, the black ice suddenly transpired and became white water vapor. His whole body glowed red like a red soldering iron, and the animal skin robe on his body was instantly burned to ashes. As he opened his mouth, flames spewed from his mouth...
Fortunately, he was then an innate creature, and had become a great grandmaster, so that he would not be turned into ashes under such rapid changes in heat and cold.
Ding Hao once again experienced the pain of death.
That feeling was as if every cell in his whole body were placed in an oil pan for cooking, and it seemed that countless ants and insects were eating his soul; there were waves of intense pain that words could not describe. It seemed that he was in the sea, and the waves were going to swallow him.
Ding Hao could only hold a trace of clarity in his heart and not let himself pass out.
The Body Oven Realm of Mind Essential kept running, and all kinds of mysteries were inspired. Ding Hao’s body was like a super Elixir Furnace, running frantically, while constantly repairing all the body parts that were being destroyed by the energy of Yin and Yang. Meanwhile, his body instinctively expelled various foreign matters through his facial features, meridians, blood vessels, pores, and skin.
That was a process that destroyed almost every part of Ding Hao’s body and then reassembled it.
Fortunately, the force of creation and the force of destruction barely maintained a balance.
...
...
“Is that so...”
Lei Tingchan closed her eyes and said thoughtfully.
The vast desert was endless, and the huge cactus tree behind her was still green, but the Buddhist halo on her could only cover her body and her head.
The black weird ants that had besieged her for six days and six nights had completely devoured her limbs to the bone. At the moment, Lei Tingchan looked extremely horrible. Her legs were still crossed, but they had become white bones without any flesh, and so did her arms, but her crystal bone hands formed a Buddhist print.
She was almost completely handicapped.
At that rate, four hours later, Lei Tingchan would become a skeleton.
A cross-legged female skeleton!
That was a weird picture.
If it weren’t for the innate vitality of the above congenital creatures, the ordinary martial artist would have completely passed out.
But there no gestures of pain were found on her face.
She seemed to be comprehending something, thinking hard and did not pay any attention to the soul-eater blood ants that were devouring her, as if the flesh and blood that had been devoured bit by bit was not a part of herself.
