Chapter 476 - Chapter 120: Bones

Although those who are brave enough to endure death and those who are timid enough to starve to death, even if they want to endure it, they have to consider whether they can eat it or not, right?

The ripples in the front passage were completely unknown to Zhongyuan. Without giving it a try, he would definitely feel a little unwilling. However, if he wanted to try, Zhongyuan was also worried about encountering an irresistible danger and was keeping company with those corpses in that passage!

I stayed at the entrance of the passage with a worried expression for a few minutes. Although I am quite satisfied with my current life, don't opportunities always coexist with crises?

Zhong Yuan, who had made up his mind, stomped his foot and released his golden body to cover himself completely. Without hesitation or giving himself a chance to change his mind, Zhong Yuan quickly followed his golden body into the passage, afraid that he would change his mind again later!

As he was about to reach the place where the puppet caused ripples, Zhong Yuan's golden steps couldn't help but pause, but in the end, he stepped forward heavily. The ripples arrived as scheduled, so fast that he didn't even have a chance to react!

The huge golden body, even if Zhongyuan fell from the Nine Heavens, saved his life. However, in front of these ripples, the huge golden body was pierced without even a trace of effect. As for the power mask, it didn't grind Zhongyuan into powder this time, and the effect was quite good. It even collided with those ripples!

Originally, Zhong Yuan had placed more than 10 layers of power masks outside his body. Seeing that the ripples were too domineering, he quickly dispersed his golden body. The more than ten layers of power masks instantly only left the outermost layer that was fighting against those ripples, and all the power was directed towards that layer of power mask! The mental power crystal in my mind also spun faster than ever before!

Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long. Zhongyuan felt that a long time had passed, but in reality, it was only two or three seconds, filled with ripples throughout the entire passage, continuously hitting Zhongyuan's psychic mask!

Zhongyuan had always been proud of his psychic power, but it quickly dissipated under the impact of these suddenly gathered ripples. Although he still didn't know what those ripples were for, Zhongyuan was also scared by the fierce ripples and temporarily had no intention of trying their effects. Zhongyuan, who had already felt discouraged, was about to withdraw some psychic power to make himself leave!

Before even the 'click' power could be separated, Zhong Yuan's power mask was breached by the ubiquitous ripple. Zhong Yuan was shocked. Although rebuilding a power mask was just a thought for him, the ripple had not given him even a trace of time. The moment the power mask broke, the ripple had already entered Zhong Yuan's head!

And then!

Is everything okay? Zhong Yuan, who was about to scream with his mouth open, froze there before he could make a sound. It was indeed fine, but what was a bit different was that the ripple instantly touched the spiritual power crystal in Zhong Yuan's mind after entering his head. When the ripple touched the spiritual power crystal, Zhong Yuan only felt his head faint slightly, and then the ripple in the entire channel disappeared mysteriously as if it had just appeared. On top of the spiritual power crystal in Zhong Yuan's mind, there was an additional transparent ring, which could be the purpose of the ripple?

Being a bit cautious, Zhong Yuan probed the spiritual power crystals in his mind. To Zhong Yuan's surprise, 70% of the spiritual power in the crystals had disappeared without even realizing it. Zhong Yuan wouldn't have thought that those spiritual powers had disappeared while confronting those ripples just now! So what is probably related to those disappearing spiritual powers is the sudden appearance of the circle in the mind!

Suddenly, something appeared in his mind. Although he didn't know its purpose for the time being, Zhong Yuan still felt a little uncomfortable. He cautiously exerted some strength and tried to probe the circular ring!

It's okay if you don't try it, but when you try it, Zhongyuan is scared. The reaction of the circular ring is a bit too intense. When Zhongyuan's psychic power touches the circular ring, it disappears instantly like drops of water falling into the water. The circular ring, which was originally quietly floating on the crystallization of spiritual power, quickly rotates with a buzzing sound.

The originally transparent ring rotated fiercely and should have disappeared like invisibility, but in Zhong Yuan's mind, this ring was not like that. The ring that should not have been visible turned into a sphere, and some colors began to change on top!

'Earth?' Zhong Yuan couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. His mind showed that it was indeed Earth. Although it looked a bit different from what Earth looks like now, Zhong Yuan, who had seen some ancient topographic maps, could tell that what he had in mind was exactly what Earth looked like at that time. Zhong Yuan was surprised that the ripples made such a big formation, leaving only this thing in his mind? What's going on with those corpses not far away?

With a mind full of questions, Zhong Yuan tried to take two gentle steps and jump a few times in place. Is everything okay? It's really okay. Zhongyuan walked all the way to the nearest corpse. The ripple that had scared Zhongyuan before never appeared again. Even Zhongyuan used his psychic power to control the black panther puppet to move around a few times, but never saw the ripple appear again!

Seeing this situation, Zhong Yuan actually had some understanding in his heart. The fact that the ripple did not reappear must be related to the transparent circle in his mind. As for why there were several corpses on the ground, it is currently beyond Zhong Yuan's knowledge!

However, these Zhong Yuan are not interested in knowing for the time being. After confirming that the ripples seem to no longer appear, Zhong Yuan's attention has already been drawn to the bones on the ground, or more accurately, to the things carried by the bones!

Although it may seem a bit wrong to make a fortune by killing people, if there is something good in front of him and he doesn't have much thought in his heart, Zhong Yuan will doubt whether he has the wrong nerve connection!

These bones have probably been in this passage for some years. Before Zhongyuan touched them, the bones silently shattered to the ground. However, the clothes on the bones were really good, at least you couldn't see anything wrong with just your eyes. If Zhongyuan hadn't obtained such fabric during his last desert trip, he might not have cared if those clothes were worn by dead people!

What caught Zhongyuan's attention were the weapons held by the corpse bones and a small bag on their bodies. Zhongyuan didn't care if these things were used by the dead. He first checked the weapon with his psychic power. It was a crescent shaped sword that looked like a half moon, made of an unknown black material, like gold but not gold, like wood but not wood. Zhongyuan tried his psychic power and found that the toughness was quite good. However, to Zhongyuan's slight disappointment, no traces of formations or runes were found on the weapon. Zhongyuan had always thought that weapons without formations or runes could only be considered sharp weapons at most. So although I couldn't see the material used to refine that weapon, Zhong Yuan had no intention of putting it away. The owner had fallen here, so the weapon probably wasn't much better!

The investigation of the small bag next to the corpse also did not satisfy Zhongyuan very much. There were many bottles and jars inside, but unfortunately most of them were opened and could not be covered in the future. The things inside were left for so long, so there was no hope for any medicinal effect. It is estimated that the owner used them when passing through the first few passages, and there were also a few bottles that were not opened. However, Zhongyuan did not find any indication in the bag. God knows what was inside the bottle, and Zhongyuan was put away when he finally received it. But whether it can be used in the future is unknown!

In addition to these things, the bag also contained some scattered gold and silver, more than ten pieces of spirit stones, but surprisingly there was nothing left. The other two were even more decisive, with only a few pieces of broken silver and some spirit stones besides weapons, even poorer than the first corpse!

There was another one, which Zhongyuan gave up after taking a look at. It was the skeleton of a large bird, about three meters long, which was only the size of the skeleton. You can imagine how big it was before its death. I have heard many times from Zixiaohe about its father, so when Zhongyuan saw the skeleton, he couldn't help but associate it with Zixiaohe's father!

Anyway, Zhongyuan didn't sort out animal bones like he did when he saw human bones. With a wave of his hand, he collected all the bird bones into the Buddhist beads. If Zixiaohe's father hadn't returned these bones to Zixiaohe, he would have thought that such a large bird skeleton would be quite good for decoration!

Having collected everything that needed to be collected, Zhong Yuan controlled the Black Panther Puppet to continue walking towards the passage. Although based on previous experience, this passage should have such ripples, sometimes it is experience that can kill people. Therefore, Zhong Yuan remained cautious and guarded!

After walking about 200 meters in the passage, another skeleton lay alone on the ground of the passage. Seven or eight meters away from the skeleton, a dustbrush quietly lay on the ground, and the head of the skeleton was still slightly lifted. Looking at the other end of the passage, it was obvious that the owner of the skeleton was filled with unwillingness to fall here!

To Zhongyuan's surprise, this corpse was somewhat different from the ones in front of him. Except for the bird, the other three bones looked no different from ordinary corpses. The one Zhongyuan saw now had shiny white bones, and even a strand of crystal could be seen on both hand bones. Perhaps the jade bones mentioned in the ice and jade bones were like this?

Using his psychic power to hold the distant dust, Zhong Yuan tried twice with his hand and found that it was quite heavy. Moreover, the dust showed no signs of weathering, indicating that it was probably a good thing. He casually collected the dust and turned his gaze to the body of the corpse. If this person could run so far, there must be something good on him, right?

With some anticipation, Zhong Yuan scanned the body of the corpse with his psychic power. When he reached the waist of the corpse, Zhong Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up!
