Seeking the Tao in the Mortal World

Chapter 59: Whiter Bone Everlasting

“Thump“, the “huge” Flying Serpent suddenly fell to the bottom of the cliff and immediately became smaller. Qin Yi on its back was also thrown far away.

It was just caused by misplacement. After all, Ye Ling was actually very small. He might even fall in a shake, so he didn’t get injured from the fall. Qin Yi rolled over and stood up quickly. He turned around and saw a snake more than half a meter long lying on the ground and flapping its wings.

More than half a meter was actually not very small, but compared with the huge Flying Serpent that was as big as a river just now… it was like a dragon turning into a lizard.

“What’s wrong?” Qin Yi went over and caressed her worriedly, “Are you alright?”

“I… I become smaller. Sob…” She let out a childish female voice.

“Stupid snake.” Qin Yi said snappishly, “You just looked big before, not really big. How can deceive yourself too?”

“I can only feel powerful when I look that big.” Ye Ling lay on the ground weakly, looking very sad.

Qin Yi ignored her and looked at the surroundings.

It was still misty and the visibility was very low, but it wasn’t like he couldn’t see anything. He could still see things a few meters away. Qin Yi dispersed the mist with Wind Talisman, then his pupils constricted slightly.

There were bones everywhere…

There were human bones and beast bones.

Qin Yi also saw corroded swords next to the human bones, like the scimitars commonly used in the West Savage Kingdom: this was within the territory of the West Savage Kingdom, so they were probably scouts sent by the West Savage Kingdom to explore the rift valley. Of course, none of them survived.

There seemed to be no hostile creatures here, not even the scavenger vultures, but these bones clearly proved that there must be a big crisis nearby, otherwise how could they die?

Qin Yi cautiously took a few steps forward, squatted down, and inspected the nearest skeleton.

There were no clothes on the skeleton, let alone other things. Only in the empty eye sockets, there seemed to be a slight flicker of phosphorus fire as if those eyes could still see. It was very spooky.

Qin Yi stared at those eyes.

Next to him, Ye Ling had returned to her human form, looking at Qin Yi with a creepy look.

Never mind if you look at your stick, but why the skeleton? Aren’t you scared?

In fact, Stick Stick was telling its judgment to Qin Yi.

Qin Yi raised his mace.

Almost at the same time, the skeleton’s arm suddenly thrust into Qin Yi’s throat.

“Pa!” The mace smashed the entire skeleton into pieces.

Two dots of phosphorus fire were scattered on the ground as if they would never go out. The smashed skull slowly began to combine together again.

There were “creak” sounds all around. All the skeletons stood up.

Ye Ling’s teeth were chattering, “What, what is this…”

“A kind of yin corpse spell. Someone has occupied this area. These skeletons are his gatekeepers.” Qin Yi smiled, “If we die, we will end up like this.”

Ye Ling looked at a snake bone crawling towards her, and her teeth chattering. She just wanted to find a place to hide and not look at it.

“It’s not that strong. Look at how scared you are.” Qin Yi swung the mace left and right and smashed the 2 nearby skeletons into pieces. “Actually, they were at the level they were when they were alive, which are ordinary soldiers. Their actions were even more sluggish. There is nothing to be scared of.”

Ye Ling said, “But they will still heal.”

/p>

“Their speed is very slow, not a threat at all. Even Dong Huazi can run out, how can we not be able to deal with them?” Qin Yi directly swung his mace and swept away the skeletons that were in the way, clearing a path of bones.

Seeing Qin Yi’s brave look, Ye Ling gained some confidence and ran after him.

“Let’s go ahead and take a look. There are some real deal inside.” As Qin Yi charged forward, he suddenly felt in his heart that he should think of a way to practice this stupid snake’s courage first. She is obviously such a strong beastkin, and I will definitely lose to her… but she always thinks of running away first if there is any situation. This is really a bit of a headache.

A stupid snake with this kind of mentality will probably be beaten to death by me if we really fight.

Speaking of which, I’m pretty badass. In my previous life, I was shocked when I saw the skeleton model in the hospital. Why do I feel nothing when I look face to face with a real skeleton? I can still smash all the way through the sea of ??skeletons?

This is the courage that comes with strength, right?

I have even killed people, would I still be scared by skeletons?

The landform at the bottom of the rift valley was not all flat.

Maybe it was flat when Liu Su created it, but over the course of tens of thousands of years, some places had become hills, some had collapsed, some had grown trees, some had become lakes, and some had been covered by immortal aura or death aura, causing a special mutation.

This vast valley bottom was a world that had everything.

If there were people living there, there were probably buildings or cave houses in some places.

Qin Yi could already see a barren hill ahead with no trees. It was unknown how tall the hill was.

In fact, everywhere he passed was desolate. There were only yellow sand, rocks, and some weeds. It didn’t look like there was an immortal aura or a rare treasure. Qin Yi understood that this area must be the most desolate and resourceless area in the entire rift valley. As long as it was a little more fertile, it would definitely be occupied by other more powerful beings. If so, it would no longer be a “white relatively safe area”.

But the closer he got to the hill, the pressure he felt increased. The intensity of this sea of ??skeletons also gradually increased. Just now, there were some skeletons of ordinary soldiers and ordinary beasts. The further he went, the more bizarre and strange beast skeletons he saw. Many of them were unknown to him.

He couldn’t recognize all the species in this world. Even if he could recognize all the species, there weren’t many species here that were once extinct.

For example, this one right now…

It was a huge reptile like a dinosaur with three heads, and the three heads looked different. One in the middle looked like a human head, and the other two had the heads of a dog or a wolf. What was this?

No matter what it was, he would at least be crippled if he was brushed by that huge claw.

Qin Yi didn’t have much curiosity for knowledge. He bent down, went through the claw from below, and smashed the mace hard on the joint of the beast’s calf.

“Crumble…” The entire giant beast’s skeleton collapsed.

Qin Yi turned around, pulled Ye Ling, and ran toward the hill.

As soon as they reached the edge of the hill, the sea of ??skeletons behind them all stopped moving. Countless green phosphorescent lights flickered for a while, then they all lay back down as if they were tired and wanted to sleep.

Ye Ling scratched her head, “Why does it look a bit like me…”

Qin Yi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. At this time, he was not in the mood to tease the little girl. All his mind was attracted by the things at the foot of the hill.

At the foot of the hill, there was a stele. Some mysterious carvings were shining on it.

“Wither Bone Everlasting Spell” includes illustrations. It was obviously the spell that created this sea of ??skeletons.

I bet these skeletons are everlasting in your opinion? Qin Yi couldn’t complain, so he walked around stele to see if there were any other hints.

There was a sentence written on the back, “Behind you are wither bones, in front are everlasting.”

The meaning of these words is a bit strange… it seems to be the tao explanation of this evil spell, but it can also be understood as going forward will obtain the method of immortality. Now I know why Dong Huazi dared to move forward despite his low level. The path ahead grants immortality, who wouldn’t want it?

Qin Yi raised his head and looked at the barren hill in the mist. Isn’t this the same as asking a bald man endorse a hair tonic?
