Murong Yunqing looked at the blood slowly seeping out from his fingertips, and the shock in his heart had reached an extreme level.
Just now, she saw that this skeleton seemed to have some knowledge, so she touched the forearms of the mantis corpse with her hand. The two forearms were flat and narrow, like two peerless swords, extremely sharp.
At first, Murong Yunqing thought it was her imagination, but when her fingers touched the forearm bones, it was like touching a real sword, with an inexplicable and indescribable edge.
A sharp breath emerged from the arm bones in an instant, piercing Murong Yunqing's fingers.
Yuan on the other side obviously also noticed this scene. After a brief silence, Yuan said: "This trip can be regarded as a harvest. Even if there are no other things, these skeletons alone are not in vain."
Yuan's voice was not loud, but the hall was empty, and Murong Yunqing's consciousness was always paying attention to Yuan, so Murong Yunqing heard his words very clearly.
Murong Yunqing did not answer directly, but activated the power of the five elements in his body to restore the blood marks on his fingertips. He turned his back to Yuan and said lightly: "What are you going to do?"
"Don't be nervous, our cooperative relationship is still maintained. Although these bones are precious, they still need to be taken out with life. Moreover, there are a lot of these things, and it is not difficult to divide them. Liu and I will only take half.
, as for how you and your companion decide to divide it, I won’t interfere."
After hearing this, Murong Yunqing's originally wary heart slowly calmed down.
To be honest, she is not very interested in these bones at all. Firstly, it is because she does not like these bones very much. On the other hand, it is also because these things have no practical value to her at this time.
.
Therefore, compared with these seemingly extraordinary bones, the cooperative relationship between Yuan and Lu is actually more important at this moment.

The deepest part of the Tomb of the Demon King of Samsara is a silent and closed space. This space is not large, and you can see the edge at a glance.
Here, there is no sun and moon, no stars, no land, no water, and no so-called animals and plants. Everything seems to have existed since ancient times, and time seems to have lost its meaning here.
In this closed space with no land and full of silence, a faint light came from nowhere, lighting up a dark corner.
Following these lights, you can vaguely see a stone house floating quietly in the void.
The structure of the stone house is very simple, so simple that it is difficult to see. In addition to the four walls and roof, there is only a black stone door that is tightly closed, and there is not even a window.
However, this seemingly simple and ordinary stone house is no longer ordinary because of the place where it appears.
"Someone has entered the ancient palace."
A slightly tired voice sounded from the stone house, echoing throughout the dark and silent space.
"Oh? But the person you want to wait for?"
The one who answered was a woman's voice. Although it was a question, her tone seemed extremely indifferent. However, in this indifference and calmness, it also contained supreme majesty.
In the stone house, an old man sat cross-legged. The old man's hair was gray, but his clothes were extremely neat.
The old man's brows were covered with wrinkles. These wrinkles looked extremely deep, as if each one represented endless years and vicissitudes.
The old man was sitting there, looking very
Ordinary, nothing surprising. It's just his ordinaryness that makes his whole person and this space become one, becoming a whole, making it impossible for people to see through.
In front of the old man, there is a stone table. In the center of the stone table is a chessboard, and opposite the chessboard, a woman dressed in black is sitting quietly.
The old man placed the white chess piece between his fingers somewhere on the chessboard and shook his head: "It doesn't matter whether it's the person I'm waiting for. If the skin is gone, how can the hair be attached? That one a few days ago
The war has left the space barrier riddled with holes and is beyond repair. Originally, there were still a thousand years to make a last-ditch battle, but now it seems that it is all empty talk."
The woman in black raised her jade finger lightly, twisted out a black stone, and dropped it on the chessboard. She said in a disdainful tone: "Do you want to give up right now?"
"The emperor's words are wrong."
The old man shook his head slowly, with a sad look on his face, and sighed softly: "It is said that there is a number of heavens in the dark, but the way of heaven is still incomplete. How can we know the sky by looking at it? If we don't know the sky, how can we talk about mending the sky?
I once created the path of reincarnation with great perseverance, great courage, and great luck. I controlled life and death, reversed yin and yang, and tried to complete the cycle of yin and yang of life, death, and yin and yang in the world. However, I was punished by heaven, and finally failed in my efforts, and ended up in the current situation.
Nowadays, the way of heaven is incomplete, the road to immortality has been cut off, and the martial arts has not yet prospered. In addition, the emergence of that person has broken the sky, and there are internal and external troubles. Everything is at stake. What virtue and ability can I have? Haha,
When does the so-called way of heaven escape from cause and effect?"
The old man held the white piece down and chuckled twice. The laughter was very complicated, including emotion, loneliness, and ridicule. But he didn't know whether the object of his ridicule was aimed at someone else or himself!
The woman in black looked at the old man who had been etched by time across the chessboard. She was not shaken by the other's sighing words. Her eyes were still firm, just like her body, even when she was sitting, was still upright.
The appearance of the woman in black may not be outstanding, but the indescribable fortitude and determination on her face add a bit of charming charm to her.
The woman in black took out a black stone from the chess box. Just as she was about to drop it, she frowned slightly.
At this moment, a dark crack suddenly appeared in the corner of the stone house. The light in the stone house was already dim, but the outline of the dark crack was still extremely obvious.
This kind of darkness seems to be the same color as the night, but it is completely different.
This kind of darkness seems to be able to swallow everything, dissolve everything, and nothing can survive.
Absolute darkness is also absolute destruction.
The black crack appeared very calmly. It was a space crack, but it was different from ordinary space cracks. Because its appearance was so peaceful, it was so calm that it did not stir up a trace of wind, stir up a particle of dust, or even cause any disturbance.
The slightest fluctuation in space. If you don't see it with your own eyes, you can't detect it at all.
The black cracks were coming more and more, gradually expanding from the original trace to one foot, and finally formed a circular space crack with a diameter of one foot long, becoming a space passage.
At this moment, two figures walked out of the space passage one after another. The leader was a woman, wearing a fiery red gown, which showed the delicate figure of the woman.
Behind the woman is a burly man wearing black armor and surrounded by black mist.
The man was very tall, and the woman in red could even be described as petite compared to the man in black armor. But at this moment, the burly man in black armor was hunched over and hanging low.
He turned his head and silently followed the woman in red.
"The little girl has seen the devil and the great emperor." Ruan Shi bowed slightly and said in salute.
Maltz knelt on one knee, clenched his right fist across his chest, bowed his head and saluted respectfully: "Dark Knight Maltz, I have met the Great Emperor!"
When the woman in black saw the visitor, her expression became indifferent again. She did not look at Ruan Shi, dropped the chess piece in her hand, and said in a calm tone: "I thought it was the person who came in person, but I didn't expect it was just you, a girl. It seems that you
That master’s vision is very high, is it difficult for even this emperor to enter his eyes?”
The old man who was playing chess with the woman in black saw the visitor. After being slightly stunned, he smiled bitterly and shook his head: "How is your Majesty, the God King, doing lately?"
Ruan Shi bowed to the old man again and saluted: "Thank you for your concern, Lord Demon Lord. The young master is currently unwell and has many inconveniences in his movements. I am really sorry for not being able to come in person. However, my young master got a treasure a few days ago. It is said that it is very important to Lord Demon Lord."
The plan has been helpful, so I specially sent the little girl to have a look with you."
"Oh?" The old man immediately became interested when he heard this. He did not hide his curiosity, and even his voice was a little higher when he spoke: "I am very curious about what His Majesty the God King asked you to bring."
Ruan Shi smiled slightly and saluted the old man again. Facing this old man, especially after knowing the identity and deeds of the other person, even if he was as proud as Ruan Shi, his attitude was extremely low.
This low posture is not out of fear of the old man, but out of genuine respect and admiration for the other person and his life story.
"Does the Demon Lord know this thing?"
As Ruan Shi spoke, something suddenly appeared in his hand, which looked like a somewhat worn-out mountain axe.
Ruan Shi placed the axe, which did not look very good, on the stone table between the old man and the woman in black.
The ax was very heavy. When it was placed so casually on the stone table, the chess pieces on the stone table shook violently.
The chess game is slightly scattered.
But at this time, neither the old man nor the woman in black paid attention to the chess pieces anymore, because all their attention was attracted by the axe.
The ax is not very big, but it is not too small either, about as tall as a person. The ax handle and blade are almost completely covered with a layer of brown.
This layer of brown looks a bit like rust, which also makes the overall appearance of the ax look even worse.
"This...this..."
The old man just looked at it for a while, as if he suddenly remembered something, his eyes widened, his face was full of disbelief, and he even felt a little awkward when speaking.
The woman in black frowned, her fingers slowly slid over the ax blade, feeling the vast aura coming from it, and her expression changed slightly.
"This emperor observes that this ax contains infinite laws, contains vast power, and spreads the heaven and earth, the sun and the moon. In addition, there seems to be some kind of general trend of heaven and earth unknown to me. The edge of its meaning can open up the heaven and earth.
If the power is too low, it can destroy the heaven and the earth. Combining creation and destruction, it is the most powerful divine weapon this emperor has ever seen in this life, and it can be said to be peerless. Martial Ancestor, do you recognize this axe?"
The old man stared at the ax on the stone table without blinking, as if he had not heard the woman in black's question. His body was very stiff, and the white chess piece in his hand quietly turned into nothingness.
After a long time, the old man's expression changed. From the initial disbelief, it gradually calmed down, and then slowly turned into excitement.
The old man finally spoke, as if he was answering the woman in black's previous words, or talking to himself.
