Chapter 602: Chapter 50: White Bone (2)
"How is it?"
White Bone didn’t answer, just waved his arm lightly, and several pale beams of spiritual light shot towards Fang Zheng from a distance.
"Bang!"
"Bang bang!"
Clusters of phosphorus fire exploded in mid-air, causing Fang Zheng to stagger and forcing him to activate the Seven Kills Spell to accelerate again.
This is going too far!
Fang Zheng’s eyes narrowed, and a murderous intent arose in his heart.
However, he knew that unless he activated the Upper Qing Great Cave Thunder True Talisman, he wouldn’t be able to pose a threat to his opponent with his current strength.
White Bone achieved the Dao through Bone Aspect, and its body hardness was comparable to a magical treasure, condensing and dispersing at will.
In terms of ability,
it might not match the ever-changing abilities of the Mountain Monarch and Meng Po.
But its physical strength was formidable, and it was protected by several innate magical treasures like the White Bone Whip, Bone Sword, and Bone Relic.
In close combat,
it’s comparable to a Martial Arts Grandmaster!
It’s even more formidable than an ordinary Martial Arts Grandmaster in physical strength.
Sigh!
This Ghost King body is unbeatable against cultivators below the Master or Martial Sect level, but it struggles increasingly against opponents of the same level.
If not for the protection of the Wind and Cloud Banner and Separation Alloy Wheel, it might not even qualify to catch Meng Po’s eye.
Go!
Glancing at White Bone gradually approaching, his thoughts swirled, and Fang Zheng finally abandoned the idea of mutual destruction.
The key is...
Judging by White Bone’s stance, even if I activate the Divine Talisman, I might not be able to truly kill it, and I haven’t been pushed to that point yet.
Two Escape Lights, one in front and one behind, headed straight for Fengdu City.
White Bone snorted coldly at the sight.
’Zhou Qi and Meng Po can’t protect themselves, and there’s no Ghost King in Fengdu City, I wonder where you can escape to!’
’Divine Bone...’
’Absolutely cannot be abandoned!’

Fengdu City.
Ma Ning exited the Cave of Ten Thousand Ghosts, and after a night of meditation, her Essence Qi was plentiful, and she hosted a banquet to celebrate at an inn in the Inner City.
"Master Fang."
She knelt on her knees, solemnly bowing:
"Once a teacher, always a father. If not for Master Fang’s guidance all the way, Ma Ning would not have achieved today."
"Please accept my bow!"
"Get up, get up." Fang Zheng hurriedly reached out to help her up:
"Your achievements today are due to divine opportunity descending, I dare not take credit, quickly get up and sit down to talk."
"Fellow Daoist Fang," Ghost Granny said slowly:
"Let her bow a few times."
"In the future..."
"She is my disciple."
Hmm?
Fang Zheng raised an eyebrow, then lightly sighed and nodded:
"I, Fang, have shallow learning, and indeed am no longer qualified to continue teaching. It’s her blessing to be able to apprentice under a Fellow Daoist."
Under the cloak,
Ghost Granny nodded with satisfaction.
Today’s banquet is to celebrate Ma Ning’s breakthrough and also to take the opportunity to resolve the matter of changing masters.
Changing masters is extremely rare in the Yama Secret Realm, fortunately, Fang Zheng understood and didn’t stubbornly hold on.
"The matter of entering the Inner City has been arranged."
Tit for tat, Ghost Granny handed over a letter:
"As Ma Ning’s master and brother, Fellow Daoist and Ma Chao can both enter the Inner City, and Fellow Daoist’s Ghost Servant’s daughter Erya can also enter as an attendant."
"However, Erya is only a servant and shouldn’t wander around randomly, it’s best not to stray far from Fang Mansion."
"Hmm..."
"Your assigned residence is at No. 5 Yi Street, near the core area of the Inner City, you can move in today."
"Many thanks." Fang Zheng accepted the letter, examined it carefully, and nodded deeply:
"Thank you."
Although Ma Chao didn’t get a good spot in this year’s selection competition, he wasn’t too discouraged.
After all, his sister’s prominence brings its own benefits.
After rounds of drinks.
Fang Zheng found an excuse, left the room, and went to the inn’s backyard, stretching his muscles against the cold wind.
"Although the Inner City is good, it is too closely monitored, always giving a feeling of being watched."
"I dare not even release Divine Thought..."
"Nanny Cui!"
"Swish!"
The Yin wind whirled, revealing Nanny Cui’s form.
After surviving the ordeal in the Cave of Ten Thousand Ghosts, she survived by luck, but her Soul Body was weak, as if a gust of wind could dissipate her.
Facing Fang Zheng, she had become extremely cautious.
"Here."
Fang Zheng threw the letter:
"Take it, and later go to the Outer City to bring Erya over."
"..." Nanny Cui showed a look of surprise; being merely a trace of an Underworld Soul, it’s somewhat inconvenient to head to the Outer City.
And in the Outer City, many belongings of theirs were left behind; does the other party not plan to take them?
Her thoughts turned, but she didn’t ask much, having understood Fang Zheng’s ruthlessness during the ordeal in the Cave of Ten Thousand Ghosts.
This person,
is far from as benevolent and friendly as he appears.
And he hides his cultivation base, infiltrating Fengdu City; it’s highly likely he’s from the Evil Dao of Black Mountain, and what fate might befall her mother and daughter bound to him is uncertain.
"Yes."
Nodding, Nanny Cui wrapped the letter in Yin Energy, placing it within herself.
"Hmm..."
Fang Zheng looked up, squinting slightly:
"It’s here."
What has come?
Nanny Cui looked surprised and hadn’t had time to speak when a deafening roar ensued.
The mere sound caused the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi in the void to tremble continuously.
Nanny Cui, being a Soul Body with weak aura, changed her expression and her Soul Body even showed signs of collapse.
The next moment.
A gentle aura infused her body, helping her stabilize.
It was Fang Zheng.
Fang Zheng effortlessly stabilized Nanny Cui, raised his head to gaze at the firmament, and suddenly smiled lightly, disappearing with Nanny Cui on the spot.
"Boom!"
A cluster of ghostly white flames descended from the sky, falling right into the backyard of the tavern, scorching a deep pit into the ground.
At the same time.
Countless clusters of flames fell from the sky within Fengdu City.
"Ghostly Phosphorus Fire!"
"It’s Lady White Bone’s technique!"
"Enemy Invasion!"
"It’s an enemy invasion!"
"Lady White Bone actually dares to cause trouble in Fengdu City, doesn’t she know there’s a City Lord stationed here, is she tired of living?"
"..."
The roar continued.
However, evidently, no one knew Zhou Qi and Meng Po were not in Fengdu City, amidst the chaos, they failed to activate the array in time.
Thus,
More and more ghost fires fell into Fengdu City, further complicating the situation.
Above.
The Bone Relic emitted a faint glow, like a cloud covering acres of land, encompassing ’Fang Zheng’.
Moreover, the White Bone Whip and Bone Sword interjected and swept within, suppressing the Separation Alloy Wheel and Wind and Cloud Banner.
To prevent any mishap.
Lady White Bone did not approach ’Fang Zheng’, lest he becomes desperate and detonates the Divine Talisman for mutual destruction.
Instead, she performed her techniques from a mile away, intending to gradually trap and kill her opponent.
"You’ve been fleeing for so long just to escape into Fengdu City, but little did you know I could have caught up long ago."
"It was merely to deplete your cultivation base further!"
"Now Fengdu City is right below, but you find it difficult to get close, what might you be thinking, esteemed sir?"
Lady White Bone spoke leisurely, controlling three pieces of Magical Treasure to attack, looking relaxed but actually highly vigilant.
Her opponent’s cultivation base isn’t high.
And has been utilizing Secret Techniques all the way, tapping potential, with strength less than thirty percent of its peak.
Yet there are two pieces of Magical Treasure, especially that Separation Alloy Wheel, whose Separation and Union Divine Light is formidable.
If only that were all.
He has a Divine Talisman at hand.
The Bone Cultivator has a unique Dharma Gate; his natal bones have long been replaced, confident that even if the Divine Talisman explodes, he can ensure survival.
But...
His strength would surely be at its lowest.
"Crack!"
The Bone Sword struck the Wind and Cloud Banner, its sharp blade cutting a crack into the banner.
The crack isn’t obvious.
However, ’Fang Zheng’s’ defense exhibited a flaw.
Opportunity!
Lady White Bone’s eyes shone brightly with ghost fire, and the Bone Relic, White Bone Whip, and Bone Sword all radiated Spiritual Light.
Three Yin Spirit Gathering.
Go!
"Boom!"
The three pieces of Magical Treasure suddenly intensified in aura, attacking ’Fang Zheng’ through the flaw, and for a moment, even the Separation Alloy Wheel had difficulty defending.
Good!
Seeing the Magical Treasure about to strike ’Fang Zheng’, Lady White Bone showed ecstatic joy, yet her heart suddenly skipped.
Huh?
"Swish!"
Her figure flickered, shifting horizontally more than ten feet as if by Instant Teleportation.
Unfortunately.
"Boom!"
A rampaging Fist Force came through the void, accompanied by Thunder True Intent, completely engulfing Lady White Bone’s skeletal body.
"Boom!"
Yin Thunder exploded.
"Ah!"
Lady White Bone screamed miserably, her bones riddled with cracks, summoning three pieces of Magical Treasure to protect herself.
Her figure flickered several miles out before daring to look back.
"Such hard bones."
Fang Zheng clenched his fist, looking surprised at Lady White Bone:
"Taking my punch, and still not heavily injured, your bones... are a bit too hard, don’t you think?"
Though due to the sneak attack, he didn’t exert himself fully, that punch just now landed squarely.
He is a Martial Sect.
Moreover, he practiced Elemental Thunder Skill, his physical body far surpasses his peers, also hiding his aura with Ten Thousand Ghosts Cave Secret Technique.
Masters in close combat are inherently inferior to Martial Sect.
Just now, he thought even if Lady White Bone didn’t die instantly, her strength should be greatly diminished.
Now...
Such hard bones!
Squinting his eyes slightly, Fang Zheng’s figure flickered as he approached the opponent, releasing violent True Qi from mid-air.
Heart Intent—Dragon and Snake Joint Attack!
"Roar!"
True Qi materialized, transforming into entwined dragons and snakes, charging straight towards Lady White Bone.
The Separation Alloy Wheel and Wind and Cloud Banner assisted from the side.
"Boom!"
Amidst the roar, a cracked white bone shattered through the dense clouds, smashing heavily into the ground.
The body plowed a trench over a hundred meters long on the hard rocky ground before stopping.
