Book 2: Chapter 76: Bone Manipulation

Gu Hai carried Long Wanqing as he jumped into the Go puzzle world.

Goggling, Long Wanqing asked, “How did we enter when you have not solved the Go puzzle yet?”

“I don’t need to solve the Go puzzle. If not for me fine-tuning the entry location, we could have come in earlier!” Gu Hai said while smiling.

Whoos.h.!.+

The two descended.

From the outside, the inside of the barrier appeared only as large as the floating island. However, once inside, Long Wanqing discovered that she was wrong. This world was too large. There were countless mountains and rivers with fog and clouds filling the place.

The two fell from the sky towards a large sea.

Boom!

When the two landed in the sea, they caused a huge splash.

“Cough! Cough! Cough!”

Long Wanqing coughed out some water. Then, Gu Hai immediately dragged her along as he swam towards the sh.o.r.e. Soon, they reached land.

“Cough! Cough! Cough!”

After coughing, Long Wanqing felt much better. Then, they checked out their surroundings.

This was not a large island. A golden dragon’s body hundreds of kilometers long lay beside the island, its two ends apparently stuck to the spatial walls, pinned down in this world.

Large banks of clouds and fog spread out in the sky, preventing the two from seeing out.

Likewise, Ding Rui could no longer see the two from outside the ritual array. It seemed like the two shrank as they fell. The clouds and fog spread out made them even blurrier. The clearest thing she could see was that glistening golden dragon vein.

“The Dragon Pinning Sect’s name is literal?” Long Wanqing said with a frown.

“Hall Master, the place where we entered is next to the dragon vein. I recall you said that the Dragon Luring Jade could collect the dragon vein?” Gu Hai looked at Long Wanqing.

Long Wanqing frowned as she looked at Gu Hai. However, she did not say anything. Instead, she walked towards the dragon vein.

Gu Hai smiled bitterly. He knew that Long Wanqing was still somewhat guarded against him, so he did not say anything. Then, he also walked towards the dragon vein.

Soon, Gu Hai arrived beside the gargantuan dragon vein’s body.

Gu Hai touched the huge dragon vein with his right hand. Then, a terrifying energy entered the palm of his hand. It made him feel extremely insignificant.

“Did we become small, or did this dragon vein become big?” Gu Hai asked in bewilderment.

After all, the dragon tail was not this exaggeratedly large in the Great Feng Mafia Family.

“We did not become small. This should be the original size of the dragon vein!” Long Wanqing explained.

“Oh?” Gu Hai said, feeling curious.

Buzz!

The Life Ender Saber trembled softly under Gu Hai’s chest, apparently wanting to come out.

Gu Hai raised his eyebrows. As he suppressed the Life Ender Saber’s desire, he looked at Long Wanqing.

Seeing that Long Wanqing was still checking out this huge dragon vein, Gu Hai remained silent, pondering whether he should bring out the Life Ender Saber or not.

Gu Hai understood that the Life Ender Saber desired the energy of the dragon vein. However, that scene would be too shocking. He did not wish to show it to Long Wanqing.

Perhaps the dragon vein’s energy was too tempting for the Life Ender Saber. As a result of its intense desire and Gu Hai’s rejection, the Life Ender Saber suddenly released a strange energy into his bones.

“Huh?”

Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!

The bones in Gu Hai’s right palm, which rested on the dragon vein, suddenly changed. They slowly elongated and broke through his skin, coming out of his palm like spikes.

Phis.h.!.+

The palm bone spikes stabbed into the dragon vein’s body.

Buzz!

Suddenly, the surging energy of the dragon vein flowed into Gu Hai’s body via the bone spikes. The energy flowed through all the bones in his body, heading for the Life Ender Saber in his chest.

Rumble…!

A large amount of energy flowed into the Life Ender Saber.

Gu Hai’s expression changed. He immediately pulled his right hand back, extracting the bone spikes from the dragon vein.

The bone spikes extended about fifteen centimeters from his palm, looking very malevolent.

“The Life Ender Saber can alter my bones?” Gu Hai said in shock.

The Life Ender Saber had its own consciousness. When it altered Gu Hai’s bones earlier, it had caught him off guard, so he could not object to the change in time. However, the Life Ender Saber’s consciousness was split off from him, so it was within his control.

Gu Hai gave the Life Ender Saber a command. Then, the bone spikes extending from his palm shrank slowly, retracting into his palm and vanis.h.i.+ng.

The restorative powers of the Life Ender Saber allowed the palm’s flesh and skin to recover their original appearance as if nothing had happened.

“The Life Ender Saber has the power to alter bones? It can alter and transform my bones?” Gu Hai said with slightly raised eyebrows.

Since this was the first time Gu Hai discovered such capabilities in the Life Ender Saber, he stretched out his right hand and controlled the Life Ender Saber with his consciousness to test this ability.

Schick! Schick! Schick! Schick!

The bones in Gu Hai’s right hand suddenly started transforming again, growing quickly. A sword-like bone grew out of his palm, piercing through the skin and looking exceptionally strange.

Then, Gu Hai took out an iron sword from his authority token’s compressed s.p.a.ce and clashed it against the bone sword.

Dang!?re?w???ov?l.???

The iron sword immediately broke.

Gu Hai looked at the bone sword in his right hand in shock.

Isn’t this bone too dense?

Then, he sneaked a peek at Long Wanqing.

However, Gu Hai saw that Long Wanqing had already moved elsewhere to examine the dragon vein. Then, he narrowed his eyes slightly.

“Rise!”

Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!

Bang!

Bones immediately grew out of Gu Hai’s entire body, protruding from his chest, back, arms, legs, face, and other places. The thousands of bones poking out of his skin made him look like a large, white, bone porcupine, looking extremely horrifying and ferocious.

Schick!

Gu Hai instantly retracted all the bones that appeared in the blink of an eye. Then, he let out a long breath.

His torn skin had completely recovered as if nothing had happened. However, the countless holes in his clothes stood testament to what happened earlier.

Gu Hai’s eyelids twitched wildly as he quickly changed clothes.

As he touched the Life Ender Saber in his chest, his heart thumped heavily.

Gu Hai did not follow after Long Wanqing. Instead, he extended his right hand to the dragon vein again.

Schick! Schick! Schick!

Suddenly, several bone spikes came out of Gu Hai’s palm and stabbed into the dragon vein. The Life Ender Saber operated at full power, sucking in the dragon vein’s surging energy through the bone spikes. This time, he did not need the black energy, so there was no huge commotion like the countless skulls in the black energy. Instead, the Life Ender Saber quietly plundered the dragon vein’s energy.

The dragon vein squirmed as if in discomfort.

Gu Hai stood there quietly while Long Wanqing walked around the dragon vein. She showed a complicated expression as she touched the dragon vein. Occasionally, golden beams of light came out from her hand. She also glanced into the distance every now and then, as though she did not want to let Gu Hai see her Dragon Luring Jade.

The two each had their own secrets.

——

At this moment, Meng Tai flew quickly through the sky while carrying Feng Ling.

“Where did they go? The two of them cannot possibly have disappeared!” Meng Tai showed a sullen expression. “The dragon vein? They must have gone to the dragon vein!”

Whoos.h.!.+

Meng Tai flew towards the dragon vein.

The dragon vein was hundreds of kilometers long. However, with Meng Tai’s eyesight, he made short work of scanning the dragon vein’s vicinity.

“Found you!” Meng Tai’s eyes lit up.

Whoos.h.!.+

Meng Tai hovered in the sky as he manifested a small cloud. Then, he hid within the cloud and looked below coldly.

“Huh?”

Meng Tai stared at Gu Hai with some confusion. After hearing about Gu Hai’s various feats, he no longer dared to underestimate Gu Hai. Hence, he kept up his tightest guard against Gu Hai.

When Meng Tai saw Gu Hai gently touching the dragon vein and showing an expression of pleasure, he found this very strange.

On the other side, Long Wanqing seemed to be avoiding Gu Hai. As she stretched out her hand, a watermelon-sized ball flickering with yellow light appeared in her palm.

“The Dragon Luring Jade?” Meng Tai’s eyes lit up.

However, Meng Tai resisted going forward. Instead, he watched patiently.

——

Long Wanqing gently used the Dragon Luring Jade to touch the dragon vein.

Rumble…!

The large dragon vein squirmed slightly.

“Hey? Is the dragon vein sensitive to the Dragon Luring Jade?” Long Wanqing stared curiously at the Dragon Luring Jade. However, she could not detect anything unusual, aside from the dragon vein’s squirming.

——

Meng Tai also focused his gaze on the Dragon Luring Jade. “The Dragon Luring Jade is used to collect the dragon vein? Can Long Wanqing collect it? Go on, then; collect the dragon vein. I will make my move after that!”

Feng Ling did not say a word, appearing mute.

——

Meng Tai and Long Wanqing focused on the Dragon Luring Jade. However, they did not know that Gu Hai caused the squirming.

The Life Ender Saber plundered the dragon vein’s surging energy, an incredibly vast and dense energy.

After the Life Ender Saber absorbed energy, it fed back one-thousandth of it to Gu Hai. This energy seemed to be very useful to his bones. As the energy settled in his bones, he sensed that his bones had become increasingly denser.

Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!

Correspondingly, the bone spikes stabbed into the dragon vein grew wildly like tree roots. As they grew, they split off more branches. Every branch could rapidly suck away the dragon vein’s energy like water pumps.

Rumble…!

As Gu Hai absorbed the horrifying energy, the dragon vein started squirming more intensely, apparently unable to endure this plundering.

“Roar!”

A dragon roar seemed to ring out as the dragon vein squirmed with all its might as if trying to struggle free of Gu Hai’s bone spikes. However, how could he give up after tasting the benefits?

As Gu Hai had cultivated physically, his bones were already much stronger and denser than ordinary people’s in the first place. Now that he had an opportunity to make them even stronger, how could he let it slip by?

When the surging energy poured into Gu Hai’s body, practically all of it went to strengthening his bones.

“Roar!”

Rumble…!

The dragon vein squirmed in pain. The intense squirming made Long Wanqing’s and Meng Tai’s expressions change.

The dragon vein struggled too violently, shaking the entire s.p.a.ce. Powerful storms blew in the surroundings, kicking up towering waves.

“What’s going on?” Long Wanqing exclaimed.

The dragon vein seemed to be struggling for its life as it let out a roar.

“Roar!”

Boom!

——

Outside, the Dragon Pinning Sect’s floating island shook intensely, causing the anxious Ding Rui’s expression to change.

“What’s happening?”

“Roar! Roar!”

The dragon roar sounded miserable. As the floating island shuddered, the Go puzzles above started twisting as well.

Soon after that, the entire Dragon Pinning Sect shook. As time went by, the shaking intensified.

“An earthquake?” countless cultivators exclaimed.

“The dragon vein? The dragon vein is struggling free of this pin? Is it going to struggle free of the Go puzzle world?” Ding Rui’s expression changed.

“Oh no! The dragon vein is getting angry. It is not just its body in the Go puzzle world but also its other parts?” Ding Rui’s expression changed again.

——

At the same time, in the Great Feng Mafia Family, in the west of Nine-Five Island, where the dragon vein’s tail was previously sealed:

“Roar!”

A dragon roar suddenly came from the ground.

Rumble…!

The ground immediately shook violently with loud rumbles.

Boom!

Various mountains started toppling over in a particular direction as if a huge dragon moved quickly under them.

Rumble…!

It was not just the former Great Feng Mafia Family. Intense earthquakes occurred in countless places in Nine-Five Island.

It seemed like a huge dragon buried underground was tossing and turning.

While countless mountains collapsed, countless other mountains also got hurled into the air.

The earthquakes swept out in all directions. The ordinary people knelt in fear.

The source of all this was the Dragon Pinning Sect. The earthquakes spread out from the Dragon Pinning Sect.

——

In a ma.s.sive valley, the Divine Strategy Battalion’s flying s.h.i.+p was searching a mountain range when the mountain range suddenly collapsed. A violent earthquake spread out from a particular direction.

“This is? The dragon vein squirming? The ground is crumbling? Someone is agitating the dragon vein?” a Divine Strategy Battalion disciple exclaimed.

“That direction? In the Dragon Pinning Sect’s direction?” Someone pointed to the distance.

The face of the Divine Strategy Battalion Commander, Li Haoran, turned cold. “The Dragon Pinning Sect? Ding Rui, that old b.i.t.c.h. She actually lied to me? Quickly, head for the Dragon Pinning Sect!”

“Yes!”
