Chapter 32 - Chapter 32: White Bone Mountain

However, Liu Chen knew in his heart that although his Third Rank Cultivation had improved, it was actually too weak.

In a place like Southern Border, such Cultivation was far from enough for him to roam freely.

"It seems that as long as I don't snatch those Opportunities, there won't be any danger," Liu Chen mused to himself.

During these two months, Liu Chen's Cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds without any external interference.

He was immersed in the world of Cultivation, constantly Breaking Through himself, and in a short period, he continuously Broke Through and smoothly advanced to Third Rank.

"It's time to leave this place," Liu Chen thought to himself.

After some effort, he finally successfully advanced to Third Rank, and his strength significantly improved.

At this point, he decided to temporarily bid farewell to this place and embark on a new journey — heading to White Bone Mountain to find the Legacy of Grey Bone Genius.

Although the Gu was not of much use to Liu Chen, he could definitely obtain treasure chests there, and he absolutely could not let them go to waste.

So, he unhesitatingly packed up the items in his residence.

With everything ready, Liu Chen rode his Thousand Li Earth Wolf Spider.

This giant spider sped underground like a gale, as fast as lightning.

Before long, Liu Chen felt the surrounding environment change.

Below the surface, the original soil was gradually replaced by more and more white bones, and the difficulty of excavation increased accordingly.

However, Liu Chen did not retreat because of this; he continued to urge the Thousand Li Earth Wolf Spider to rush forward.

As time passed, the white bones underground became denser and denser, eventually completely covering the entire ground, not even a speck of soil remained.

Facing such difficult road conditions, Liu Chen was fearless; he firmly grasped the Thousand Li Earth Wolf Spider and together with it, struggled to break out of the ground.

Looking from afar, the towering mountain peak was like a pale thorny tree, piercing into the clouds, as if to break through the sky.

Within a radius of several hundred Li, it was all a pale expanse, devoid of any Life Qi.

As far as the eye could see, this land only had various white bones, densely scattered.

Some had been weathered beyond recognition, while others still retained some semblance of their former shapes.

In the gaps between the white bones, some plants resembling gray-white strips of cloth grew, swaying in the wind, appearing unusually eerie.

In this world of white bones, various bone beasts composed of white bones also roamed.

They were large or small, varied in shape; some resembled wolves, some bears, some snakes, and some birds.

These bone beasts formed groups of various sizes, roaming in White Bone Mountain, emitting bursts of roars that made one's hair stand on end.

The barrenness and danger of White Bone Mountain were obvious.

There were no plants that could grow food, and even soil was extremely scarce.

In such an environment, any life would find it difficult to survive.

Therefore, no one set up camp here, and not even a shadow of a living person could be seen.

Not only that, the beast groups in White Bone Mountain were even more dangerous.

These bone beasts seemed to have no fear of death; once they entered battle, they would fight relentlessly until they completely annihilated their enemies.

This fearless characteristic made White Bone Mountain a true land of death, a Forbidden Land for the living.

As time passed, no one was willing to approach this area of White Bone Mountain anymore; even merchant caravans would choose to detour far away from it.

Liu Chen stood at the foot of White Bone Mountain, looking up at this huge mountain range, a sense of helplessness and sigh welling up in his heart.

The scope of this White Bone Mountain was simply too vast; to find the Legacy of Grey Bone Genius in such a vast area was undoubtedly a daunting task.

Without any clever methods, Liu Chen could only rely on the most primitive way — exploring the caves on White Bone Mountain one by one.

These caves were as numerous as stars, yet each looked exactly the same, with sharp bone spurs growing inside like stalactites, sending shivers down one's spine.

The Legacy of Grey Bone Genius was hidden in one of these caves, and the key to entering this cave was that unique spiral bone spur.

As long as this bone spur was rotated, the entrance to the Legacy would open.

Liu Chen cautiously moved through White Bone Mountain, carefully observing each cave...

The Thousand Li Earth Wolf Spider was swinging its drill-like tentacles, surrounded by a group of fearless wild ox bone beasts.

The Thousand Li Earth Wolf Spider was like a surging torrent, crashing through the bone beast group, shattered bones flying everywhere, and some bone beasts were even crushed into bone dust in an instant.

The destructive power of the Thousand Li Earth Wolf Spider was astonishing; nearly a thousand bone beasts were quickly destroyed under its attack, leaving only a pile of shattered bones.

However, Liu Chen did not find anything valuable in this mess, only some First Rank bone Dao Gu.

"How many waves has this been?" Liu Chen looked at the shattered bones in front of him, sighing in his heart, "I never thought that the Sword Embryo Gu that first advanced to Third Rank would be this White Bone Sword Gu."

The remaining First Rank bone Dao Gu were now unhesitatingly fed by Liu Chen to a White Bone Sword Gu that appeared in his hand.

As these Gu and the residual bone essence were devoured, the body of this Gu began to undergo astonishing changes.

Its body surface gradually became covered with a layer of pure white bone, forming a bone cocoon.

At the same time, its bone cocoon also continuously expanded, eventually reaching a remarkable size, and after it burst open, this Gu completed its promotion from Second Rank to Third Rank.

A month had passed since he arrived at White Bone Mountain, and Liu Chen had encountered nearly ten beast group attacks here.

In each battle, he was able to resolve it with the Thousand Li Earth Wolf Spider, and of course, some bone beasts of similar strength were left for him to practice with.

Now, Liu Chen already had some Three Watches Gu's true essence recovery, allowing the Thousand Li Earth Wolf Spider to fight freely.

However, the spoils left after the battle somewhat disappointed him.

Those shattered bones and bone Dao Gu were not of much use to him, so in the end, he could only re-refine a Sword Embryo Gu specifically to deal with these superfluous items.

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, this newly refined Sword Embryo Gu was the first to advance to Third Rank, which he had not expected.

As for the previous two Sword Embryo Gu, they had both already been promoted to Second Rank.

The White Bone Sword Gu's appearance had undergone astonishing changes.

Its sword body was like a living human spine, each segment vivid, as if still retaining the Qi of life.

And at the hilt, a ferocious skull was embedded, its hollow eye sockets staring forward, revealing an eerie Qi.
