Finger bone?
Gazing at the translucent finger bone, it suddenly erged from the spring.
The five dignified Great Emperors were montarily stunned.
It’s hard to imagine.
That such a clear and pure Immortal Spring would contain a repulsive finger bone.
This spring water...
Even if obtained, how can one swallow it?
"Damn it, where did this finger bone co from?"
Qingyue Demon Emperor licked his lips, his voice dry.
"Could it be that beneath the spring lies the corpse of that dead Spirit?"
Red Cloud Emperor pondered aloud.
"How is that possible? The Spirit’s body is so enormous, this small finger bone is clearly from a normal Human Race!"
Demon Emperor Xieshen dismissed the notion.
Whoosh!
A white light flashed through the water.
With a gesture, Demon Emperor Kuzhu made the translucent finger bone fall into his hand.
"This finger bone is so slender, it should be a woman’s finger bone..."
Demon Emperor Kuzhu examined it intently and said lightly.
A woman’s finger bone?
Qingyue Demon Emperor blinked, his expression peculiar, then his pupils slightly contracted as a trace of Divine Sense entered the spring.
Unfortunately for him, a powerful force within the spring prevented his Divine Sense from penetrating.
"The Immortal Spring is tied to the fallen Spirit’s corpse, if the cultivation base isn’t sufficient, it’s impossible to probe..."
Emperor Heimang revealed the intricacies, explaining from the side.
Qingyue Demon Emperor sighed and withdrew his Divine Sense.
"Since there’s a finger bone, could there be a whole skeleton beneath it?"
He asked, frowning.
"Logically, that should be the case..."
Emperor Heimang, his gaze deep, watched the continuously erging Immortal Spring, speaking quietly.
Despite his thorough understanding of the Immortal Spring, Emperor Heimang had never seen such a situation.
The Immortal Spring birthed from the Spirit’s corpse, even Divine Sense couldn’t penetrate—
Then how did this finger bone get inside?
If deep within the spring there truly was such a skeleton, it would be even more terrifying.
Just what astonishing cultivation base did this person possess?
Why did she die at the spring of Thousand Desolate Ridge?
Gurgle gurgle...
The Immortal Spring water flowed continuously, more and more, almost about to overflow the edge of the Stone Pool.
"Although the appearance of a finger bone in the water is a bit ominous, the Immortal Spring is indeed genuine, let’s collect it first!"
Qingyue Demon Emperor spoke to himself.
He took out a small bottle, the mouth facing down, and a suction force surged out, absorbing the spring water.
Gurgle!
A large piece of white bone, surprisingly, erged with the spring water.
The Five Emperors’ pupils contracted, their expressions changed, and a chill spontaneously spread across each of their backs.
This piece of bone seed to be a small forearm bone.
This piece of hand bone remained pure white, translucent and exquisite, like beautiful jade.
"It seems, the entire skeleton will flow out from inside..."
Emperor Heimang sighed.
Faced with such a bizarre situation, he didn’t know what to do.
Luckily, it’s just a skeleton.
If so powerful sinister creature comparable to the True God-stage suddenly erged from the spring, then they’d be plenty busy.
"Emperor Heimang, what are you afraid of? It’s been dead for who knows how many years, could she possibly revive?"
Qingyue Demon Emperor said indifferently.
"Revival is out of the question, look, this bone is all disconnected, how could it co back to life?"
Demon Emperor Kuzhu raised the translucent finger bone in his hand and laughed.
"Haha!"
The other Great Emperors also laughed heartily.
For a mont, at the edge of the Stone Pool in the deep ravine, laughter filled the air, easing the atmosphere.
Gurgle gurgle...
The spring water kept flowing rapidly from the spring.
The hand bone drifted to the edge of the Stone Pool, spinning endlessly with the montum of the water.
No one paid attention to the hand bone anymore.
Only Demon Emperor Kuzhu’s gaze kept flickering, feeling the translucent finger bone and hesitating whether to collect it.
The originally fast-flowing spring water suddenly stalled.
It seed sothing blocked the spring.
At the mont the Five Emperors were puzzled.
Suddenly, with a "gurgle," a pure white skeleton abruptly erged from the spring.
This skeleton was fairly complete, missing only a hand bone and a finger bone.
"The fra is so slender, indeed it’s a woman..."
Demon Emperor Kuzhu’s eyes lit up, murmuring to himself.
"With the skeleton out, the spring won’t be clogged anymore, soon we’ll be able to collect all the spring water..."
Qingyue Demon Emperor sighed with relief, raised the small bottle in his hand, and resud absorbing the spring water.
The hand bone at the edge of the Stone Pool suddenly floated against the current towards the skeleton.
"What’s going on? Why is the hand bone returning?"
Qingyue Demon Emperor widened his eyes in disbelief.
"It’s quite strange..."
Emperor Heimang’s gaze beca deep again.
He once entered Thousand Desolate Ridge, back then it was extrely eerie and dangerous, so he had always been wary of this place.
However.
He hadn’t expected that a million years later, Thousand Desolate Ridge would no longer possess that sinister power of absorbing blood and mana.
But in Emperor Heimang’s heart, his guard against Thousand Desolate Ridge hadn’t completely relaxed.
Under the astonished gaze of the Five Emperors, the hand bone returned to the skeleton, perfectly attaching itself.
Crack!
A chilling sound echoed in the spring water.
The pure white skeleton suddenly flipped over, kneeling in the water.
"Holy shit, she’s alive!"
Qingyue Demon Emperor scread, trembling the bottle in his hand, nearly dropping it.
The other four Emperors’ faces changed drastically, treating it like a formidable foe.
Demon Emperor Kuzhu even took out his Chaotic Bamboo, vigilantly watching the skeleton.
This skeleton showed no sign of any cultivation base.
No sign of life.
Yet the skeleton moved.
As if controlled by soone.
The Five Emperors were seasoned and knowledgeable, yet had never seen such an eerie skeleton.
"My hand..."
The skeleton slowly stood up, its hollow eye sockets gazed at Demon Emperor Kuzhu, and an eerie female voice spoke from its leaky jaw.
"Here you go..."
Demon Emperor Kuzhu shivered, feeling a chill down his spine, hurriedly tossing the finger bone over.
A flash of light.
The small segnt of finger bone landed on the skeleton, precisely attaching to the missing hand bone.
"Who...am...I?"
The hollow eye sockets of the skeleton scanned around, its mouth issuing a stuttering wail.
The sound was tearful, chilling to the bone.
"Emperor Heimang, what on earth is this strange creature?"
Demon Emperor Xieshen held his sword at his chest, frowning at the skeleton, whispering.
"I don’t know either, the last ti I entered Thousand Desolate Ridge, there weren’t such strange creatures..."
Emperor Heimang sighed.
Their conversation had just ended.
A flash of white light, and the skeleton in the Stone Pool vanished abruptly.
"Ah!"
Demon Emperor Kuzhu shouted in terror.
The other four Emperors imdiately turned their heads, discovering the skeleton had appeared behind Demon Emperor Kuzhu, its limbs spread wide, tightly embracing Kuzhu’s body.
Demon Emperor Kuzhu didn’t anticipate the skeleton’s speed to be so swift, though startled, he still raised his Chaotic Bamboo to strike the skeleton’s head.
Puff!
A muffled sound accompanied Kuzhu’s shocking scream.
Amidst the gushing blood.
The white bone hand swiftly pierced Kuzhu’s chest, pulling out his heart and stuffing it into its mouth, "crunching" as it chewed.
