Chapter 742: The Startling Appearance of an Inheritance

Corpse-Lying City.

This is the largest city on the Withered Bone Wasteland.

The city is a foul, chaotic place; compared to Broken Bone City, the evil cultivators of Corpse-Lying City are undoubtedly more powerful and more terrifying.

Evil cultivators with slightly weaker strength do not even have the qualifications to step into Corpse-Lying City.

And within Corpse-Lying City, there are four great evil leaders.

Each of them is a powerful existence in the Soaring Realm.

Usually, the four great evil leaders each occupy their own territory and almost never meet, adhering to the principle that kings do not see kings.

Yet today, all four of them have gathered together; if this were to spread, it would likely cause a tremor throughout the entire Corpse-Lying City.

"Everyone, what do you think about the news that has suddenly spread recently?" an old woman spoke first.

Her body was hunched, her graying silver hair was coiled up with several bone hairpins, and even more bizarrely, a bright green toad was crouching inside the old woman's left eye!

This old woman is one of the four great evil leaders of Corpse-Lying City, Granny Insect-Heart.

The other three evil leaders remained silent; they certainly knew what news Granny Insect-Heart was referring to.

Just a few days ago, a barrier suddenly appeared on the Withered Bone Wasteland.

Inside that barrier, it seems to be the inheritance of some top-tier mighty figure.

Someone saw a bronze tripod inside; after that great bronze tripod appeared, countless rays of light suddenly bloomed between heaven and earth, immortal energy steamed, and auspicious omens descended, making it clear to anyone at a glance that this bronze tripod is a rare treasure.

Others saw a sword! That sword looked like a peerless weapon of slaughter, yet it was incomparably holy; when it appeared, it was accompanied by the beautiful divine sounds of the Dao, and some asserted that this sword must be an Innate Supreme Treasure.

Even more exaggeratedly, some even said that inside that barrier, there is a dark golden Myriad Soul Banner, with the number of souls reaching a terrifying hundred million!

And one thing that can be confirmed is that behind that barrier, there is a terrifyingly large amount of Immortal Source Stones!

The news of this inheritance's appearance spread throughout the entire Withered Bone Wasteland in just a day or two.

At this moment, almost all the evil cultivators of the Withered Bone Wasteland are rushing toward that place of inheritance.

"My thought is, how about we put aside our grievances and join forces to seize the treasure?"

An incomparably enchanting woman spoke in a seductive voice; her clothes had seven terrifying roses made of congealed blood, and under her fair skin, one could see blood vessels moving like small snakes.

She is the only blood cultivator among the four great evil leaders, Blood Rose.

"I, Lord Flame Demon, agree with Blood Sister's proposal. Cultivators from several nearby cities will likely come over, so let's seize all the treasures first, and then we can start dividing the spoils!"

A giant man with red hair spoke in a deep voice; under the skin of half his body, one could see flowing magma, and when he spoke, black flames even sprayed out.

"Since you all agree, I naturally have no objections." A dry, strange, and hoarse voice rang out.

This voice came from a figure hidden under a black hood; under the wide black robe, one could only see a mass of floating, burning, ghostly blue flames, with no person visible.

And he is also the last of the four great evil leaders of Corpse-Lying City, Soul Fiend!

"Good, although we are evil cultivators, we must still uphold honor when out in the world. Let's agree first: before we seize the treasure and return to Corpse-Lying City to divide the spoils, we must not attack each other!" Granny Insect-Heart warned with a cold face.

Seeing the other three nod.

"Since that is the case, let us each go back to prepare a bit, and then we shall set off directly to that place of inheritance!"

The four great evil leaders each used their own methods and disappeared from where they stood.

Several hours later, the four of them gathered at the city gate of Corpse-Lying City.

With the four great evil leaders gathered together before their eyes, the evil cultivators within Corpse-Lying City were immediately in an uproar, and the eyes of many ambitious people flashed with sharp light.

"The four great evil leaders have actually joined forces; it seems that inside that inheritance, there really might be an Acquired Supreme Treasure or even an Innate Supreme Treasure!"

"I went to see that barrier; even cultivators in the Cave-Mystery Realm cannot shake it in the slightest. I wonder if the four great evil leaders can break it by joining forces?"

"Let's follow them too. If the big bosses eat meat, it won't be a loss for us to drink some soup! The treasures that leak out from between their fingers are enough to count as a fortune for us!"

The evil cultivators in Corpse-Lying City were all eager to try; the moment the four great evil leaders set off, they followed right behind.

The four great evil leaders are all terrifying existences of the Soaring Realm; in the Soaring Realm, one can cross ten thousand miles in a single thought.

In just a few breaths' time, the four of them arrived at the location of the inheritance that had recently become the talk of the town.

This place is located deep in the Withered Bone Wasteland; as soon as they approached, the four great evil leaders all sensed a strange fluctuation.

Thousands of evil cultivators had already gathered nearby; seeing the four great evil leaders arrive, many people's expressions changed, and they immediately cleared a front-row position for the four of them.

There is only one rule on the Withered Bone Wasteland, and that is the law of the jungle.

If one blocks the path of the four great evil leaders, then dying would likely be in vain.

"This barrier is indeed terrifying."

Blood Rose stepped forward to sense it, her expression becoming very grave; she could clearly feel the terror of the barrier before her.

"Although this barrier is terrifying, if the four of us join forces, breaking it is not a big problem! Shall we act?"

Lord Flame Demon spoke in a muffled voice, somewhat eager to try.

"No rush."

Granny Insect-Heart shook her head.

"Shall we exert ourselves to break the barrier here and let others reap the rewards? There is more than just the four of us who are Soaring Realm evil cultivators on the Withered Bone Wasteland."

The other three immediately understood Granny Insect-Heart's meaning, and they also waited tightly.

After waiting for who knows how long, a sound of wind-breaking suddenly rang out in the sky!

As soon as the wind-breaking sound started, a three-meter-tall white jade skeleton appeared before everyone.

On the skeleton's frame were engraved profound blood-colored incantations; even more bizarrely, although this skeleton clearly had no flesh or blood, there was a beating heart inside its chest cavity!

"Master Profound Bone, long time no see," Granny Insect-Heart smiled faintly.

"You all arrived quite early."

The upper and lower jawbones of the white jade skeleton collided, emitting a strange human voice.

"Hmph, enough nonsense. You all arrived one after another, isn't it just because you want to pick up a bargain?"

Dozens of overlapping voices rang out, sounding as if a dozen people were speaking at the same time.

A black dwarf stared at the group with ill intent; this person was also an evil cultivator in the Soaring Realm, named Shadow-No-Receive!

"Alright, now, only one person is missing," Granny Insect-Heart narrowed her eyes.

As soon as she finished speaking, a child's innocent and naive voice suddenly rang in everyone's ears.

"Sorry, sorry, am I late?"
