Under the effect of the Divine Soul Pill Refinement Technique, Lu Yuan quickly obtained three Divine Soul Pills in his hand.
As Lu Yuan’s divine soul Grade increased, he could now easily absorb the divine souls of these Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators.
Within the memories of these three people, Lu Yuan began searching for useful information.
After a moment, Lu Yuan sighed in frustration.
These three people had ventured into the Forbidden Area but had spent a considerable amount of time without making much progress. They were simply squatting there, preparing to ambush others.
Although he couldn’t find any information about Dragon Energy and White
Bone Crystal from their memories, Lu Yuan managed to gather some useful information.
This information was about the other cultivators in the Forbidden Area.
Before entering the Forbidden Area, the Myriad Bone Forest, these three people encountered another group of devil cultivators.
The opposing group consisted of cultivators from the Shixian Sect, with Daozi, Fu Jiu as their leader.
However, it seemed that the other party had no intention of engaging in extensive communication with Jue Ding and his companions.
After entering the Forbidden Area, they flew directly toward a certain direction in the center, indicating that they had some sort of plan.
Lu Yuan considered this information valuable because he believed that something that could interest Daozi Fu Jiu from the Shixian Sect would not be something ordinary.
The Forbidden Area known as the Myriad Bone Forest, was infested with bone demons, the most valuable items there undoubtedly were these demon bones.
The demon bones at the Foundation Establishment Stage might not be of much use to a cultivator like Fu Jiu.
Only demon bones at the Core Formation Stage and above could attract Fu Jiu’s attention.
With this in mind, Lu Yuan made his decision.
Although he wasn’t certain whether Fu Jiu’s destination was the territory of a Core Formation Stage bone demon or the remnants of a cultivator, he believed that by following this group of people, he would gain significant benefits.
Compared to his arduous search, Lu Yuan believed that following these people was undoubtedly more efficient.
With that thought, Lu Yuan waved his hand and erased any traces of his battle in the area to ensure that future arrivals wouldn’t discover his encounter with Jue Ding and the others.
Being cautious and meticulous had always been Lu Yuan’s motto.
Forbidden Area, Myriad Bone Forest, central region.
“Senior Brother Fu Jiu, the Falling Dragon Valley that Master mentioned is just ahead.”
Fu Jiu glanced at the nearby valley and remained silent for a moment before saying, “Let’s go.”
“Yes, sir!”
Before long, Fu Jiu and his group of ten walked toward Fallen Dragon Valley. Not long after they left, an ordinary-looking cultivator appeared behind them. Observing the direction in which Fu Jiu and the others had left, the cultivator instinctively licked his tongue.
His tongue was like a snake’s forked tongue.
“There must be something valuable in a place that has caught the attention of the person with the luck. I will follow you for now and see what has piqued your interest.”
After he finished speaking, the person turned into a black mist and merged into the nearby shadows, pursuing Fu Jiu and the others.
And just moments after this person left, another figure appeared in the exact spot where he had been.
This person was none other than Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan looked in the direction where Hook Snake had left and narrowed his eyes.
A place that caught the attention of both the Shixian Sect’s Daozi Fu Jiu and Hook Snake was undoubtedly extraordinary.
Originally, Lu Yuan was following the direction Fu Jiu had taken.
However, when he discovered that Hook Snake was also hiding nearby, he intentionally concealed himself.
Hook Snake would never suspect that just as he was preparing to scheme against someone else, there was another sly snake following closely behind him.
After ensuring the distance was appropriate, Lu Yuan’s figure also became illusory. Then, he chased after a few of them.
Fallen Dragon Valley.
The so-called Fallen Dragon Valley was a huge valley.
The reason why there was the name “Fallen Dragon” was because it was rumored that this place was where an ancient divine dragon had fallen.
Numerous dragon bones were said to exist within.
As for the accuracy of this rumor, Fu Jiu and the others were uncertain.
However, they were keenly aware that within this valley, there was indeed a dragon bone undergoing evolution.
Fu Jiu’s Master, Daoist Poison Zombie, the sect leader of the Shixian Sect, had informed him that years ago while venturing into the Myriad Bone Forest, he unexpectedly witnessed a Core Formation Stage bone dragon attempting to break through into the Nascent Soul Stage.
Originally, the bone dragon had almost succeeded in its breakthrough.
But just as it was about to break through, a multitude of heavenly thunder suddenly appeared in the sky.
This heavenly thunder didn’t seem to appear naturally. Instead, it seemed like a special restriction that originally existed in the Full Moon Valley.
From the beginning, the Full Moon Mountain Valley did not permit cultivators above the Nascent Soul Stage to exist.
Under this powerful heavenly lightning restriction, the bone dragon finally died, and its bones fell into the valley.
Upon witnessing this, Daoist Poison Zombie was ecstatic.
However, he quickly discovered that the lingering power of the heavenly thunder on the bone dragon’s body was still too formidable.
Even though he had already reached the Core Formation Stage in his cultivation at that time, he was still unable to contend with the residual of the heavenly thunder restriction.
In the end, he could only memorize the location and prepare to come back when the Full Moon Mountain Valley opened again to search for it.
After all, the remains of a Nascent Soul Stage bone dragon were incredibly valuable, even to a cultivator at the Nascent Soul Stage like Daoist Poison Zombie.
By using these dragon bones, Daoist Poison Zombie could significantly enhance the strength of his zombies to a higher level, accomplishing the transformative effect of rebirth.
He had sent Fu Jiu and the others on this mission this time not because he hoped that they would be able to retrieve the dragon bones.
He only wanted them to keep an eye on things and ensure that others wouldn’t easily discover the presence of the dragon bones in this location.
After Fu Jiu arrived near the place where the Nascent Soul Stage bone dragon had fallen, he began to observe his surroundings.
Three hundred years had passed, and there were still many remnants of the heavenly thunder restriction in this place.
The power of this heavenly thunder posed a challenge even for a Core Formation Stage cultivator like Fu Jiu.
However, despite the challenge, Fu Jiu believed that he should be able to handle it.
Therefore, after observing for a moment, Fu Jiu said, “The few of you stay here. No matter who approaches this place, kill them without mercy.”
The disciples of the Shixian Sect were stunned and instinctively asked, “What about you, senior brother?”
Fu Jiu looked at the area not far away, filled with heavenly thunder, and calmly said, “I’ll go and check if the dragon bone is still in its original place.”
After speaking, Fu Jiu took the initiative and flew forward.
The disciples of the Shixian Sect looked at each other. They all felt that Fu Jiu’s actions were different from what he had said.
“You’re not just going to check, you want to claim that dragon bone for yourself!” Although they thought so, they didn’t dare to stop Fu Jiu.
After all, the power of the remaining heavenly thunder was enough to kill ordinary Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators like them.
Only Fu Jiu was able to approach the area to some extent.
Meanwhile, Hook Snake and Lu Yuan also arrived, one after the other, in the vicinity.
Unlike Hook Snake, who frowned upon seeing the heavenly thunder, Lu Yuan’s eyes brightened instantly upon witnessing the spectacle..
