Chapter 54: Conscious skeleton?
When Long Yi and Leng Youyou was meditating, among absolutely still skeletons, Long Two (skeleton holding blood colored sickle) suddenly moved, and inside its hollow eye sockets, a ray of strange red light flashed. Slowly, Long Two turned around and walked straight towards Long Yi. Its speed was very fast, so very shortly it arrived at Long Yi’s side, then after circling around Long Yi, it stood still at the location where dark magic element was thickest, and become skeleton without any sign of life.
Unknown time later, Leng Youyou woke up from her meditation. And just after opening her eyes, she saw Long Two standing next to her, caught completely unprepared, she was so frightened that she jumped up. When she saw Long Two was also absorbing the dense dark magic element at the side of Long Yi just like her, she couldn’t help but become shocked. Then she sighed inside her heart, “Their master is already mysterious enough, but now even his skeletons are mysterious.”
In this space, there was no sun and also no stars, the color of sky was always dusky and dark like this. Leng Youyou had already awoken from her third meditation, but Long Yi was still motionless and the dark magic element were getting denser and denser around his body, almost wrapping Long Two who was at this side inside.
“Why are you still not awake? I’m already board to death.” Leng Youyou sighed. The meditation of these past few days had greatly increased her mana and spirit power, comparable to the self-torture of last one year. She was almost about to reach the rank of Dark Master Magician, but she was not happy, she would rather meditate continuously because she didn’t want to wake up to face these blankly staring skeletons all alone. And the dark magical beasts didn’t dare to set foot on the surrounding forest of 500 meters with them as a center, so this place appeared even more lifeless.
Just when Leng Youyou was about to meditate again, the dense layer of those dark magic element around Long Yi began to fluctuated. Suddenly abundant and vast aura broke out from Long Yi’s whole body, and Long Two who was standing by his side was suddenly sent flying. And after falling down on the ground, it again stood up with cracking sounds, and return back with several large strides.
Dense dark magic element around his body, and his current face with thin layer of light made Long Yi appear even more handsome. Suddenly shut eyes of Long Yi suddenly opened, then he uttered loud and long cry. After that Long Yi rose high into the air, in the sky, he suddenly dispersed into more than ten Long Yi.
“Infinitely compassionate and merciful thousand leaf palm.” More than ten Long Yi in the sky suddenly shouted loudly. Each Long Yi’s arms became illusionary blur, resembling countless hands simultaneously launching the attack.
Hong hong hong, a burst of qi energy quickly shot out, and many thickly dotted small holes appeared on the ground, immediately stunning Leng Youyou. After that Long Yi descended from the sky as light as feather with delighted expression on his face. Just a moment ago, he had broken through the first layer of AoTianJue and entered Second layer. Advancing every single layer of AoTianJue would geometrically increase his internal force, moreover the might of this world’s AoTianjue seemed much bigger than of previous world.
Long Yi looked at those small holes on the ground and shook his head as he thought, “If I had used this Infinitely compassionate and merciful thousand leaf palm with fifth layer’s power of previous world, then almost meter deep holes would have appeared on the attacked location.”
Long Yi lifted his head and looked at the shocked Leng Youyou, then helplessly laughing, he said: “Youyou, no need to be shocked, your husband, I am not limited to such little skill, later you will know it.”
“Long Yi, you are truly powerful. Just now you didn’t seem to use douqi ah, but its might was so powerful, I think it was comparable to Great Swords Master.” Looking at the expression of Long Yi, Leng Youyou became even more confused. But mysterious and powerful men always had more attractiveness.
Long Yi laughed, and light blue douqi suddenly appeared on his palm, it seems his douqi was still at the rank of Swords Master. Although he had not dedicated himself to combine douqi and AoTianJue, but Long Yi had always felt that this douqi and internal force were interlinked. The combination of these two should not be limited to using internal force to speed up cultivating douqi, they ought to be able to join together even more, but Long Yi still didn’t have any clue for the time being.
Seeing the dark magical beasts’ corpses all over the mountains and the plains, Long Yi was greatly satisfied with these 18 skeletons. He patted Long Two’s shoulders and said laughing: “Good boy, you did a great job ah.”
“Why are you talking to skeleton ah, it does not understand you.” Leng Youyou said.
“Hehe, I also don’t know, anyway I feel this fellow is different.” Long Yi laughed.
“All of your skeletons are strange, but this one is even stranger. Did you know? When dense dark magic element gathered around you while you were meditating, it actually stood by your side and absorb it.” Leng Youyou said.
Long Yi’s heart stirred, is it possible that this skeleton gave rise to its consciousness, but he immediately discarded this thought. All skeletons were remnant set of skeletons, how could they have the ability to give rise to their own consciousness? Could it be it did without thinking?
“Youyou, let’s go and see what the hell is going on with this damnable place?” Long Yi pulled Leng Youyou’s hand and said. He dare to confirm that this place was not outside this world, rather certain dimension space, and whether they could leave this place or not, he would leave it up to fate.
Leng Youyou nodded her head. Two human with 18 skeletons began to move forward. Just walked and before they had gone far, Long Yi saw the corpses of dark magical beasts all over, and he wanted to use undead magic to resurrect these magical beasts to open his way, but considering all of their mana was completely absorbed by 18 skeletons, there was not much use after resurrecting them, so he gave up that thought.
Throughout the way, 18 skeletons slaughtered all the dark magical beasts they encountered. The class of magical beasts of this region was too low class, and their dark mana was also not very much.
“Long Yi, why is there no water nearby ah?” On the way, Leng Youyou complained.
“Are you thirsty? I have a lot of water.” Because of the mission of Lost city, Long Yi had stored enough water and food inside his space ring.
“No, I want to take a bath, my body is sticky, so I am feeling uncomfortable.” Leng Youyou said with depressed expression. It goes without saying that all girls like to be very clean, but after falling inside this space, she was not able to take a bath, so how could she not complain. Before in the Huangmang plain, they could use primary water magic water ball skill to collect fresh water and take a bath, but in this damnable place, there was only dark magic element, no other magic element were present, so water magic naturally couldn’t be casted.
