Chapter 1170: Great Luo Golden Bone

"I alone can block that Heavenly Immortal-level phantom, but there is absolutely no way to slay it!"

"So there's no way to approach that divine bone!"

Ji Wuxin finished in one breath.

He Ping was also extremely shocked.

People like Ji Wuxin who could fight across ranks were truly rare.

Let's put it this way: if he, He Ping, hadn't grown up on this Yu Emperor Star, the Yu Emperor Star probably wouldn't have produced a guy as powerful as Ji Wuxin in billions of years.

"But..." He Ping asked: "Why must you approach that golden bone?"

"Or is there something there that you want?"

No profit, no early rising!

Without sufficient profit, He Ping wouldn't even take a look.

The four looked at each other.

Then Wen Buwan said: "Brother He... that divine bone itself is a supreme treasure!"

"Using the power of the divine bone to suppress an abyss, and still being able to split off energy to condense a creature at the Heavenly Immortal level—guess what cultivation base the owner of this divine bone had?"

He Ping said: "I can't guess!"

Ji Wuxin said: "At the very least, it wouldn't be lower than a Great Luo Golden Immortal!"

"Fellow Daoist He, think about it: if one obtained a section of a Great Luo Golden Immortal's golden bone, not to mention whether it could be used to craft powerful immortal weapons, just the blood-energy contained within would be enough for ants like you and me to benefit from for a lifetime!"

"Perhaps besides the blood-energy, one could also be tainted with a trace of Great Luo destiny!"

"And... perhaps there's even a Great Luo inheritance within it!"

He Ping's heart gave a sudden jolt!

Other things were fine, but the four words 'blood-energy' had a huge attraction for him.

This thing should be useful for body refining, right?

"Fine!" He Ping said: "What do you want me to do?"

Ji Wuxin said: "I can't deal with that Heavenly Immortal-level creature alone. Let the two of us join forces to slay this thing first, and then see if we can obtain this golden bone?"

"As for the specific situation, please, Fellow Daoist He, wait until we arrive at the scene to discuss it further!"

He Ping nodded in agreement.

Then the five people flew into the sky, and Ji Wuxin led the team to fly toward the location of the divine bone.

After flying for a full three or four days, they finally arrived at the place where the divine bone was located.

From afar, He Ping saw it.

A section of golden bone was suspended in the ten-thousand-fathom void.

The bone was very large, reaching a full hundred fathoms.

And He Ping could also see that this was a finger bone.

What kind of creature had a finger bone a hundred fathoms in size?

This was not strange.

Because as cultivation bases improve, the bodies of many creatures will grow larger.

Even humans, who are naturally small, can manifest their finger bones to be a thousand fathoms in size if their cultivation reaches the Great Luo Golden Immortal stage.

It's not rare.

Rings of golden divine light fell from the divine bone.

Below the divine bone, the ground had split open a huge fissure.

Looking from afar, it was a fissure, but upon getting closer, it was discovered to be an abyss.

The golden light that fell from time to time from the divine bone was exactly what was blasting into this abyss.

The abyss was pitch black, filled with nothing but condensed, unmoving demonic energy.

Around the abyss, the land was barren for a thousand miles, with no grass or trees!

"Hiss, hiss, hiss..." Seeing this scene, He Ping couldn't help but gasp, saying: "You guys are truly bold!"

"Not to mention whether this golden bone can be obtained, but one look and you know this thing was set up to suppress the ominous thing below!"

"Who knows what is deep underground?"

"What if we take away the divine bone and the creature deep underground comes out? What should we do then?"

He Ping looked at the four, somewhat speechless.

Isn't this just pure trouble-making?

"Fellow Daoist He, rest assured. Do I look like a fool?" Ji Wuxin smiled and said: "First, even if you and I join forces, I'm afraid we'll only be able to defeat this Heavenly Immortal creature at that time!"

"We won't be able to do anything to the divine bone?"

"For us, being able to take some benefits from this divine bone and go back is already incredible. Do you really think we want to take the whole divine bone away?"

"That's the first point!"

"Second, don't forget, this isn't the Yu Emperor Star; it's just a Sumeru space!"

"Even if there is some ominous thing in this abyss, it has already been suppressed for billions of years, so I estimate it probably doesn't exist anymore!"

"Taking a step back, even if that ominous thing is still there, so what?"

"In my opinion, this golden bone is just a Great Luo Golden Immortal's golden bone!"

"What could the cultivation of something suppressed by a single bone be?"

"A Taiyi Golden Immortal?"

"Therefore, after various considerations, we made this choice!"

He Ping said: "For example, what treasure do you want to obtain?"

Ji Wuxin stared at the massive golden bone and said: "This is a finger bone, so presumably, there should be some bone marrow or something inside, right?"

He Ping nodded: "Understood!"

"You go and lure that creature out, and I'll help you slay it!"

"Good!" Ji Wuxin said: "If we obtain the bone marrow, Fellow Daoist He and I will split it half and half!"

After speaking, Ji Wuxin turned into a stream of light and approached the golden bone.

Just like when they approached the mountain peak where the 【Abi Demon Origin Root】 grew, before they even got close, a breath of energy flew out and transformed into a phantom.

The phantom was dressed in golden battle armor and had the image of a woman.

The woman's cultivation was exactly at the Heavenly Immortal stage, about the fifth or sixth layer.

At the first encounter, the woman brandished the long sword in her hand and slashed toward Ji Wuxin.

Ji Wuxin flicked his left hand violently, throwing out a cyan seal.

The seal banged and transformed into a hundred-fathom size, blocking in front of the woman.

But it was useless.

The woman slashed down with her sword, and the defensive shield condensed by the seal was torn to shreds directly.

"Fellow Daoist He... still not making a move?"

Ji Wuxin shouted anxiously.

He Ping said: "Coming!"

A purple-red light flew from afar and instantly landed in front of Ji Wuxin, also banging open and transforming into a purple shield.

The remaining force of the golden-clad woman's sword slashed fiercely onto this purple shield.

The next moment, the shield was knocked flying.

Just at this moment, He Ping's figure also flew over.

He brandished his right hand, and the purple shield fell over; in an instant, the shield transformed into the Primordial Purple-Gold Staff, which He Ping swung out fiercely.

It turned out that the shield just now was a variant form of the Primordial Purple-Gold Staff.

Boom...

He Ping's staff strike collided fiercely with the second sword slash from the golden-clad woman.

Then a massive wave of energy surged in all directions.

The two were evenly matched in this strike.

He Ping also became passionate: "Again!"

This was his first time using his own strength to fight a Heavenly Immortal!

This time, He Ping took the initiative, and the Primordial Purple-Gold Staff in his hand suddenly transformed into a long sword, slashing from mid-air toward the golden-clad woman.

Not only that!

While slashing, a fierce sword intent transformed into a storm, tearing toward the golden-clad woman from both the left and right directions.
