Chapter 59: The Plans of Jun Xiaoyao
Jun Xiaoyao and the others began to delve deeper into the underground palace.
As a supreme secret treasure, coupled with the eerie gray mist that permeated everywhere, even a fool could tell that this supreme secret treasure had likely undergone some kind of mutation, exuding an ominous aura.
Inside the underground palace, an ancient and decayed atmosphere lingered.
At a glance, the place was filled with chilling winds, shrouded in mist, with broken walls and ruins.
On the ground lay numerous pitch-black corpses, scattered haphazardly.
The most bizarre thing was that these corpses had black scales spreading across their surfaces, as if they had undergone some kind of transformation.
Just as many cultivators stepped into the underground palace, these eerie demonic corpses suddenly sprang to life, lunging at them with blood-red eyes.
Their claws, sharp as blades, easily pierced and tore through the bodies of the cultivators.
Cultivators at the Divine Bridge realm could not withstand these demonic corpses at all.
Soon, large numbers of cultivators were slaughtered.
However, on Jun Xiaoyao's side, he effortlessly turned these demonic corpses into meat patties with just a wave of his hand.
As for the others, he didn’t bother with them and couldn’t be bothered.
Jun Xiaoyao was not a babysitter for these cultivators, nor was he a righteous person.
The saying "with great power comes great responsibility" had nothing to do with Jun Xiaoyao.
Behind Jun Xiaoyao, Jiang Shengyi, Jun Linglong, and Jun Xuehuang did not make any moves.
It wasn’t that they didn’t want to help; it was that there was truly no opportunity.
Jun Xiaoyao casually opened a path, and no demonic corpse could make him stop.
On the other side, Long Biqi, Xiao Chen, and others had long since left this main path, not knowing where they had gone.
Jun Wanjie was also not beside Jun Xiaoyao.
Ji Xuan glanced at Jun Xiaoyao from the corner of his eye. Seeing that Jun Xiaoyao did not notice him, he quickly left the main hall.
After Ji Xuan left, a cold smile crept onto Jun Xiaoyao's lips.
He wasn’t planning to deal with Ji Xuan just yet, as the time wasn’t right.
As time passed, the number of cultivators dwindled.
Most of the cultivators had been completely slaughtered by the demonic corpses.
“Xuehuang, Zhan Jian, you two go look for Ji Xuan in secret, but don’t alarm the snake first,” Jun Xiaoyao instructed.
Upon hearing this, both Jun Zhanjian and Jun Xuehuang's eyes widened in shock.
The Son of Heaven wanted to focus on Ji Xuan?
Thinking of this, both Jun Zhanjian and Jun Xuehuang couldn’t help but feel a bit of pity for Ji Xuan.
Those targeted by Jun Xiaoyao rarely had a good ending.
Jiang Shengyi then spoke up, a hint of worry in her voice, “Xiaoyao, are you going to make a move on Ji Xuan? He possesses the hand bone of a Saint King; if he really fights back…”
Jiang Shengyi was concerned.
She wasn’t afraid that Jun Xiaoyao would lose to Ji Xuan.
Rather, she feared that if Ji Xuan fought back desperately, it might cause some harm to Jun Xiaoyao.
“Is Sister Shengyi concerned about me?” Jun Xiaoyao said with a faint smile.
Jiang Shengyi bit her lip and replied, “I’m your aunt; if I don’t care about you, who will?”
“Ha, there’s no need for that. In the younger generation of the Immortal Domain, there’s no one who can make Jun Xiaoyao wary, past, present, or future.”
Jun Xiaoyao laughed freely.
This wasn’t arrogance; it was a fact.
With unparalleled talent and a system backing him, if he were still wary of this and that, he might as well just smash himself with a piece of tofu.
Jiang Shengyi rolled her eyes at Jun Xiaoyao, but the corners of her mouth couldn’t help but lift slightly.
Jun Xiaoyao’s confident demeanor was truly appealing.
“Let’s go; there are some treasures in this underground palace that shouldn’t go to waste,” Jun Xiaoyao said, waving his sleeve.
Next, Jun Xiaoyao rode on the nine-headed lion and moved together with Jiang Shengyi.
Jun Zhanjian and Jun Xuehuang went to secretly track Ji Xuan.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Xiao Chen, wearing a hood and cloak, was navigating through the complex underground palace.
“Xiao Chen, go left, then go straight. I can sense the aura of the ancient dragon bones; they are not far away!”
A slightly excited voice from the Azure Dragon Master echoed in Xiao Chen's mind.
Even the Azure Dragon Master couldn’t remain calm.
If he could obtain the ancient dragon bones and fuse them with various materials, he could reshape his body.
Not only could he restore himself to his peak state, but he could even break through to become an unparalleled supreme being; it was not impossible.
Even a quasi-supreme powerhouse like the Azure Dragon Master found it hard to contain his excitement.
Let alone Xiao Chen, who was just a hot-headed youth.
His eyes sparkled with excitement as he quickened his pace.
After a while, after dealing with some demonic corpses and a few other cultivators, Xiao Chen entered a cavern-like space.
The entire underground cavern was extremely vast.
Xiao Chen breathed heavily as he looked around.
In the enormous cavern, there were five massive dragon skeletons.
Among them, four skeletons were a deep dark golden color, with numerous complex and mysterious runes etched onto their surfaces.
Even though these four dark golden dragon skeletons were just bones, they still exuded a vast and majestic aura that made Xiao Chen feel an impulse to kneel and worship.
“Is this the ancient dragon bone?” Xiao Chen was so excited that his fingers trembled.
Just feeling this aura, he knew that the ancient dragon bone was incredibly powerful and could completely transform him.
However, in his mind, the Azure Dragon Master suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
“Could that be the legendary supreme ancestral dragon bone!”
“Supreme ancestral dragon bone?” Xiao Chen looked puzzled and then turned to the last skeleton.
This skeleton, unlike the other four dark golden dragon bones, had a jade-like luster, as if it were carved from celestial jade, perfectly natural.
The surface of the skeleton was covered with dense runes, swirling like the stars in the sky, revealing mystery and power.
Although the four dark golden ancient dragon bones had powerful auras, compared to this primal dragon bone, they were like subjects before an emperor.
“The supreme ancestral dragon bone is the bone left behind by a supreme dragon of the ancestral dragon bloodline, far more powerful than the ancient dragon bone!” the Azure Dragon Master said urgently.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen took a deep breath, his eyes filled with shock.
The ancestral dragon bloodline, how powerful was that?
The entire ancestral dragon nest was named after the ancestral dragon.
The true ancestral dragon ancient emperor could suppress even some human emperors!
Of course, the supreme ancestral dragon bone before Xiao Chen was clearly not a pure-blooded ancestral dragon skeleton.
Pure-blooded ancestral dragon remains were likely to be found only in the ancestral dragon nest.
However, even if it only contained some ancestral dragon bloodline, it was enough to make this supreme ancestral dragon bone an invaluable treasure.
“I’m going to get rich; I, Xiao Chen, am going to get rich!”
Xiao Chen breathed rapidly, his body trembling slightly with excitement.
If he cultivated the Azure Sky Transformation Dragon Technique and fused this supreme ancestral dragon bone, how powerful would he become?
At that time, not to mention suppressing an era, he could at least dominate the younger generation of the Wild Heaven Immortal Domain, right?
“Xiao Chen, this place is not suitable for long stays; quickly collect these five dragon bones,” the Azure Dragon Master reminded.
“Right.” Xiao Chen also came back to his senses.
He just wanted to quickly take away the five dragon bones, then find a secluded place to refine them, and finally slap Jun Xiaoyao’s face and take revenge.
However, just as Xiao Chen was about to move to collect the dragon bones, a surprised female voice suddenly came from behind.
“That is… the ancient dragon bone, and also… the supreme ancestral dragon bone?!”
