Chapter 460
However, he did not say much.
Although the Shushan Shilan tribe had guarded the Yuyuan for generations, Did Chi You had already broken free, and this skeleton was of no use. He could not stop Su Xuan from taking the bones. On the contrary, if Su Xuan could really forge a handy weapon, perhaps he would have a few more chances of winning when he faced Did Chi You.
Releasing the protective divine light to eliminate the demonic energy remaining on the bones, Did Chi You's skeleton no longer had demonic energy lingering on it. Only then did Su Xuan put it into his sleeve. Also put into his sleeve was Did Chi You's coffin.
Because if Su Xuan guessed correctly, this coffin was very likely made of Jianmu.
In the Classic of Mountains and Seas, Jianmu was a more extraordinary divine tree than the Fusang Divine Tree. In the current world, the Fusang Divine Tree was still there, and the Xunmu was also nearby, but only the Jianmu, in legend, had been cut down a long time ago.
If the coffin was made of Jianmu, this unique material was enough to make Su Xuan care.
Afterwards, Su Xuan and Yu Jun strolled around the bottom of the Yuyuan together.
Unfortunately, apart from this coffin, there was nothing else at the bottom of the Yuyuan.
After Did Chi You escaped, there was actually nothing to stroll around here. They came to the Yuyuan just to take the opportunity to see the true situation of the Yuyuan. Well, that was the case for Yu Jun. For Su Xuan, he couldn't help but be frugal and thrifty, finding some top-tier forging materials, and he was a thief who wouldn't leave empty-handed, even stealing Did Chi You's coffin lid.
Determining that the bottom of the Yuyuan had been explored and there were no omissions, the two decided to leave.
Before leaving, Su Xuan took another look at the Xunmu that formed a forest on its own.
"It is an ancient divine tree after all, it is a pity to have it destroyed like this!"
"Even if it is a pity, what can be done? According to what you said, its vitality has been severed and it was destroyed by Did Chi You's hands." Yu Jun glanced at Su Xuan upon hearing this.
"Yes, it has been destroyed, but fortunately, the time Did Chi You took to sever its vitality was not long."
Su Xuan said something inexplicable.
The next moment, Yu Jun only saw Su Xuan raise his hand.
While Su Xuan maintained his protective divine light, another invisible force arose from Su Xuan's hand. Feeling this force, Yu Jun only felt like he was experiencing a realm of vibrant vitality and all things flourishing.
Under Su Xuan's manipulation, this force merged into the Xunmu.
The originally lifeless Xunmu, with the merging of this force, had its branches and leaves gently swaying, even if it only swayed for a while.
But when Yu Jun looked at the Xunmu again, he sincerely felt something unusual.
The Xunmu seemed to have come alive.
Did Su Xuan, using some unknown method, save this divine tree that had been destroyed by Did Chi You?
Yu Jun secretly guessed in his heart.
However, because Su Xuan did not explain, he was not sure if Su Xuan had really saved the Xunmu.
Putting away some guesses in his heart, Yu Jun asked Su Xuan, "How do we go up?"
When he came down, he was taken by Su Xuan, jumping directly from the sky above the Yuyuan. So, how should he go up?
Or was he going to look for that small path?
Su Xuan soon gave the answer. A strong wind arose, and clouds rose from the ground, supporting his and Yu Jun's bodies, thus riding the clouds up.
By the time Yu Jun came back to his senses, he was already in mid-air.
On that day at the summit of Shushan, Donghuang Taiyi, who was possessed by Did Chi You, had shown the ability to step into the void. But that was the ancient Weapon Lord Did Chi You after all, so it was not strange that he could do such a thing.
He did not expect that Su Xuan could also do such a thing.
Feeling his figure constantly rising, Yu Jun looked at Su Xuan, who had already canceled his protective divine light. As Su Xuan canceled the protective divine light, everything around returned to darkness, but Yu Jun could feel where Su Xuan was.
In his heart, he became more and more curious about Su Xuan.
What kind of realm had this Sect Master of the Yin-Yang School reached?
On Su Xuan, he saw a deep mist, a mist that made him unable to see Su Xuan's reality.
Soon, under Su Xuan's guidance, Yu Jun arrived above the Yuyuan. The light here was still dim, but compared to the sunless Yuyuan, it was much better.
With a complex mood, Yu Jun took Su Xuan and left the Yuyuan together.
Determining that there was nothing left in the Yuyuan that could deal with Did Chi You, he devoted all his energy to flipping through the Shushan classics.
The Shushan Shilan tribe had a long heritage, from the ancient Battle of Zhuolu to the present, it had been two thousand years. For two thousand years, except for being tricked by the Yin-Yang School several hundred years ago, the Shushan heritage had not been broken, which meant that the classics in Shushan were as numerous as hair. It was difficult to flip through these classics to find out about Did Chi You, but to stop the Did Chi You calamity, they had to find clues from them, preferably determining Did Chi You's next destination, so that they could defeat Did Chi You before he recovered his full power.
While Yu Jun was doing these things, Su Xuan also stayed in Shushan.
The scenery of Shushan was excellent, and because of the Fusang Divine Tree, the spiritual energy was abundant, far exceeding the Taiyi Mountain he had climbed before, as well as the Yin-Yang School's headquarters, Lishan.
Of course, his original intention was not to be a guest in Shushan.
His original intention was to seize the Fusang Divine Tree and find the Azure Dragon Seven Mansions. He did not expect that Donghuang Taiyi had been lurking in Shushan in advance, taking advantage of the time when he and Yu Jun were fighting to sneak into the Yuyuan.
If he had really stolen the power within the Yuyuan, that would be one thing, but the key was that he was too weak.
Not only did he get himself involved, but he also released Did Chi You, subsequently bringing a huge threat to the world.
Thus, Su Xuan's purpose also changed somewhat, from simply reasoning with the Shushan tribe and seizing the Fusang Divine Tree to stopping Did Chi You.
It could only be said that things in the world were impermanent, and some things were not even expected by Su Xuan.
During the few days he lived in the Shushan tribe, Su Xuan had been designing weapons.
Regarding the Dao of forging, he could be considered to know a thing or two. To be precise, after practicing the seventy-two earthly arts, he knew a thing or two about many things, which could be called erudite.
Did Chi You's bones, for ordinary people, were just a simple skeleton, even if this skeleton was incredibly sturdy, sturdier than the so-called dark iron, and ordinary means could not even destroy it.
But for Su Xuan, this was indeed the best forging material he could see in this world.
Did Chi You did not know how many essences, blood, and souls of living beings he had devoured to forge an immortal demonic body for himself. His bones had been soaked in demonic energy for thousands of years. Thousands of years of soaking had already changed the essence of his bones, making them an excellent medium for carrying vital energy.
After drawing I don't know how many design drawings, on this day, Su Xuan finally had the final draft.
He decided to use this skeleton to forge multiple flying swords for himself, using them to form a sword array.
