Digging up spiritual roots and seizing blood? You scumbags, wait and tremble.

Chapter 656 A Horde of Skeleton Men

The power of space is not so easy to comprehend. She felt that her talent was not bad and she could understand many things, but she only had a superficial understanding of the power of space at the beginning.

"Sister, can we eat the fruit over there?" Ah Sheng suddenly asked, pointing ahead.

Zhong Ran and the other two snapped out of their surprise at the spatial power and looked in the direction Ah Sheng pointed, only to find that the inside was indeed different from the outside.

This place appears to be an orchard, with gray trees, but some of them are bearing fruit.

The three exchanged a glance and slowly walked in that direction, with Ah Sheng following behind them.

Not all trees bear fruit; only some trees bear fruit, and the fruit is gray and devoid of any breath.

Zhong Ran subconsciously activated her Eye of Illusion to look over, and found that the unassuming gray fruit actually contained the power of a soul.

"Could these also be fruits formed from the remnants of those souls?"

All three were startled. What was previously just a remnant soul had now solidified into a fruit. How did this transformation happen?

"Ah Sheng, you can eat these." Zhong Yan picked one and took a bite; it even had a faint, pleasant fragrance.

Hearing that it was edible, Ah Sheng picked one and swallowed it in one gulp.

Zhong Ran's lips twitched. She wanted to pick some to take out and give her parents a treat.

As a result, after these fruits were picked, the spiritual power within them slowly dissipated.

"It seems we have no choice but to pick them and eat them as soon as possible." Mu Jinning also took a bite: "If we eat all of these, will we ascend to immortality?"

Zhong Ran's lips twitched: "Aren't you overthinking it?"

Mu Jinning smiled slightly: "Yes, let's prepare to cultivate the clone first."

Absorbing more soul power will be of great benefit to cultivating clones later.

Just as each person had consumed a few soul fruits, the sound of synchronized footsteps echoed from the shadows of the forest.

The three exchanged a glance, instantly becoming more alert, but instead of rushing to pick more food, they quickly picked more.

"Little Cauldron, are these things of yours even useful? No, you need to remove them all and refine them into Soul Pills, otherwise they'll be destroyed when the fight starts."

"Big White, come out and eat some too, this is good stuff."

Big White shook its head in disgust; it didn't want to eat these dirty things.

It only eats the milk of the millennium-old spirit; otherwise, it would rather not eat at all.

“Ah Jin, let Xiao Qingtian come out and eat some too. It will be good for him, and so will Bai Zi.”

The two summoned their two small beasts and sent them out to devour the Soul Fruit as well.

Xiao Ding was even faster; once it came out, it quickly went to collect the fruit, moving at an extremely fast pace.

Ah Sheng quickly reached out and picked one, stuffing it into his mouth as he muttered, "Sister, is it another bone beast?"

Zhong Yan's expression turned solemn: "This time it's not a bone beast, but a bone human."

Moreover, there are many skeletons; just from the sound alone, there are already many.

One, two, no matter how strong they are, he is not afraid.

However, if they are in a large group and there are his own people among them, his devouring power will not be effective.

I just don't know if his Life and Death Stele is useful to cultivators, but it's also useful to these skeletons.

Soon, the skeletal figures arrived in droves, and the hunters didn't even have time to count how many there were.

The skeletal figures rushed towards them at incredible speed.

Ah Sheng instinctively raised his hand and punched the first skeleton: "Get out of the way."

Then, instead of being driven back as he had hoped, the skeleton was forced to retreat several steps.

His expression changed, and at this moment, Mu Jinning and the other two also confronted the Bone Man.

Moreover, it's a one-to-many situation.

The skeletons no longer use spiritual techniques like cultivators, but they still have weapons.

The skeletal hand gripped a bunch of axes, which it swung with great force, their blades gleaming with a chilling white light.

Everyone had a feeling that if they were hit by that axe, they might be crippled.

What made them even more uneasy was that the bones of these skeletons were exceptionally hard, like divine weapons, as evidenced by the fact that Ah Sheng was forced to retreat after being hit.

"Ah Sheng, be careful. Don't fight them head-on. Get your spiked club or sledgehammer out."

Zhong Ran shouted and instructed Ah Sheng to stop using his fists to fight against these bones.

At the same time, she quickly dodged, and a long spear appeared in her hand. In a head-on confrontation, this kind of long weapon is more effective.

Ah Sheng was very obedient, and his big hammer appeared in his hand.

These bones are very hard; let's see if his sledgehammer can break them.

Mu Jinning and Zhong Yan also took out their weapons and engaged in a fierce battle with these skeletons.

There were too many skeletons; more than ten of them ganged up on one of them.

When Ah Sheng unleashes his hammer, he can send the skeleton flying and shatter it with a single blow. Some of the bones are directly reduced to dust, turning into death energy that enters the air.

Some of them scattered on the ground, and then, taking advantage of their inattention, quietly flew away.

There were too many skeletons, so they were bound to get hit.

Fortunately, all four of them were physically strong, so even if they were hit, they wouldn't be seriously injured.

Zhong Yan and his sister Zhong Ran took the opportunity to practice their cultivation techniques.

Surrounded by so many skeletons, the four of them went from being flustered at the beginning to handling the situation with ease later on.

But there were too many skeletons, seemingly endless, giving the impression that they were going to wear them down.

Zhong Ran took a moment to extend her divine sense to see if there was anyone controlling it. She discovered that the scattered bones were actually flying inside.

She was shocked, and only then did she understand why there were so many endless skeletons.

“Ah Jin, Xiao Yan, these scattered bones have flown back again. I suspect they reassembled themselves after going back.”

These bones are covered with a layer of deathly aura, and it is clear that they are supported by this deathly aura.

In this forest, the most abundant thing is the aura of death.

As long as these bones remain, there will be a constant stream of bone people attacking them.

While the two were fighting, upon hearing her words, they also began to pay attention to the bones scattered on the ground.

I didn't realize it until I looked closely now, and I discovered that the bones scattered on the ground were actually flying inside.

Zhong Ran suddenly flicked out a wisp of flame to burn the bones; her current flame was no different from divine fire.

Unexpectedly, although these skeletal figures were burned to pieces, their bones did not turn to ash but instead flew away.

She abruptly activated the Fire Source Pearl, causing the temperature of the fire to rise again, and the scorched bones instantly turned to ash.

A vacuum zone began to appear around the flames, but the remaining skeletons continued to rush in.

They lacked any sense of crisis or awareness; all they knew was that they had to fight.

Zhong Yan absorbed the Netherworld energy from the skeleton, and he carefully collected the scattered bones using a spatial ring.

Mu Jinning did the same. Since they would fly back and reassemble, they would make sure they could never fly again.

"Buzz!" An even louder sound came from the air.
