Chapter Thirty-Seven: Treasure Hunting Begins
The process of absorbing the spiritual fire was very smooth, and in about a quarter of an hour, the bones were transformed by the soul power, and Ah San's spiritual fire was completely extinguished. Duanmu Haoyang was not disturbed by other skeleton creatures, and the Purple Bone King did not chase after him.
Duanmu Haoyang's divine consciousness, who became the Blue Bone King, covered a radius of more than three hundred and fifty meters, and all the surrounding objects appeared in his consciousness, from the surface of the desert down to a depth of two meters, and every grain of yellow sand was clearly visible. Concentrating his divine sense, he probed deep beneath his feet, and the extreme depth exceeded five hundred meters.
As Skeletron's level increases, not only does the detection range of his divine sense increase, but the quality of his soul power also changes. Duanmu Haoyang understood that no Skeleton King would concentrate his divine sense on probing the situation under the desert, even if he wanted to find the soul stone, the result was extremely slim, after all, the width of the route that a Skeleton King traveled was too small, and the chance of touching the soul stone in the boundless Ghost Cloud Desert was pitiful.
After a few simple exchanges with Xuanwu Chuanyin, he continued to hurry, and his divine sense probed into Ah San's spatial ring.
The internal space of the ring is ten times that of Duanmu Haoyang's original ring, and there are all kinds of refining materials and ores piled up inside, some of which he is still not sure about the purpose and name, and there is also a large pile of white crystals, and there is a row of shelves in the corner of the space, on which are some jade slips, and a few jade bottles. Next to the shelf was a pile of bones, gray and white, the same as the bone stick used by Ah San, it should be the bones of the same beast. There are also some bones of the Yellow Bone King and the Green Bone King, which should have been prepared by Ah San for himself for bone damage replacement.
Traveling in the desert, danger can arise at any time, distractions are very easy to sneak up on, and you can't stay here for long. Duanmu Haoyang didn't check the jade slip and jade bottle, and his divine sense withdrew from the ring, keeping him on guard, concentrating on his journey.
The Blue Bone King is more conspicuous in the desert, and it is very easy to be found by other skeleton creatures, although the range of divine consciousness control is still twenty meters, but the number of other Skeleton Kings that have been attacked and killed has not changed, and after two days, the spiritual fire that can be obtained every day is still more than fifty, and it is mainly the spiritual fire of the Golden Bone King. If he relied on this bit of soul power, Duanmu Haoyang estimated that it would take more than two years before he could become the Green Bone King, and he didn't want to wait until two years later to enter the Central Oasis.
With strong strength, Duanmu Haoyang does not stay at night. In the dark night, there was silence in the desert, and the image reflected in the soul of the green eyes was the same as the desert at night, so dark that nothing could be seen. He completely unleashed his divine sense, probing the conditions of the surrounding desert of more than 350 meters.
Once you find a skeleton creature under the yellow sand, dig it out directly, break it up, and absorb the spiritual fire. The bones and feet stepped on the yellow sand, making a rustling sound of sand and bones squeezing and rubbing, in the dark night, Duanmu Haoyang was like the impermanence of the soul, and none of the Skeleton Kings who were found by him could be spared.
Duanmu Haoyang came to the side of the sand dune, and his divine sense locked on the Green Bone King under the yellow sand, "Come out, I can only count you unlucky if I find out!"
The thickness of the yellow sand on the bones of the Green Bone King was less than a foot, and the reason why it was so shallow was that he wanted to facilitate the sneak attack and escape, but he didn't expect that it was the Blue Bone King who found him, and now he had basically lost the opportunity to escape. But he didn't want to just give up......
"My lord, you are strong, I don't know if you can ......" Before the transmission ended, the Green Bone King jumped out directly from under the yellow sand, and the bone knife in his hand went straight to Duanmu Haoyang's neck, the bone connection of the neck is the weakest part of the body, he wants to rely on the sneak attack to escape the fate of the spiritual fire that is about to be absorbed.
The idea of the Green Bone King is very good, but Duanmu Haoyang is guarding against him, and he is careful to sail the ship for ten thousand years, how can Duanmu Haoyang, who has sixteen years of survival experience, be calculated by him.
At the moment when the bone knife was just raised, the head of the Green Bone King had already flown up, and Duanmu Haoyang also attacked his neck.
Picking up the head on the ground and directly absorbing the spiritual fire, for the Blue Bone King, the soul power of the Blue Bone King was much less, and it didn't take a while to be absorbed.
Duanmu Haoyang stood in place and did not take a step to leave.
"There is no strength, everywhere is at the bottom, and there is no backhand to be killed or plundered. The life of the tribe is like this, and the life of the Ghost Cloud Desert is like this. "Although Duanmu Haoyang was born in the tribe of the Tongshen Forest and mainly relied on hunting to make a living, he did not kill. These days without any reason to attack and kill skeleton creatures, he has some resistance in his heart, but if he wants to survive, he can only make himself stronger, the rules of survival make him more and more clear, kindness is not not not to kill, tolerance to the enemy, is cruel to himself, maybe when he will lose his life.
If the Duanmu tribe had been able to take some action against the hostile tribes when they had a certain strength, it might not have led to the final miserable situation.
Survive in the Ghost Cloud Desert, attack and kill skeleton creatures, and have a strong sense of consciousness to reshape your body. If you only rely on the soul stone, you may not become the Golden Bone King, and you will be seized by other Skeleton Kings.
Survival of the fittest, the weak eat the strong, that is, the cycle of heaven is not endless.
"I don't know how the tall and short girls and Jin Congbai are doing now, can they keep the spiritual fire?" Duanmu Haoyang couldn't help but think of the situation of Gao Da and the others, and decided to release the news of looking for them.
Putting away the disturbed mind caused by the continuous attacks, Duanmu Haoyang's skeletal figure disappeared in the darkness.
That night, since absorbing the spiritual fire of the Green Bone King, Duanmu Haoyang no longer absorbed the spiritual fire when he encountered the Golden Bone King, he grabbed it first and then let it go, and at the same time asked the Golden Bone King to tell them to go to Wushu Mountain on the western edge of the central oasis to meet Duanmu Haoyang at Wushu Mountain, and Gao Da and the other three would let them go. If the Golden Bone King tells any of the three of them the news, the Golden Bone King has a chance to go to Wuyu Mountain, and Duanmu Haoyang will additionally reward the other party with a Green Bone King Spiritual Fire.
Duanmu Haoyang continued to hurry, and the news about finding Gao Da and the other three had spread on the west side of the central oasis, and was spreading to the rest of the desert little by little.
Two days later, a Blue Bone King stood at the top of a sand dune, looking around. He is Duanmu Haoyang, this is near the blue treasure shown on the map, because there is no reliable reference around, Duanmu Haoyang has been exploring this area for more than a day, and has not found anything.
Every time the divine sense probed more than 500 meters below the desert, except for the rocks that were yellow sand, they found nothing valuable. Several pieces of ore had been detected, all at depths of three or four hundred meters, and since it was not a cherished ore, he wasted no time digging it out.
Duanmu Haoyang did not give up the exploration, and continued to search in this dune area, often standing on the high place of the sand dunes to look around to determine a new search direction. When the weak Skull King found the Blue Bone King, they all retreated far away, not knowing why Duanmu Haoyang had been wandering around.
Three days later, two Blue Bone Kings peeked at Duanmu Haoyang from a distance, but because they didn't know his intentions, they didn't get closer. Out of an abundance of caution, he stopped moving around at night to avoid accidents. Five days later, there were already three Blue Bone Kings hovering around, guarding against each other's attacks. Duanmu Haoyang basically explored this dune area, but still did not find the treasure place.
There are more and more Blue Bone Kings around, and the uncertainties are increasing, if two Purple Bone Kings appear at any time, then he will be in danger. On the sixth day, Duanmu Haoyang still did not leave, he was unwilling, the map would not be wrong, maybe he did not detect the correct place. The somewhat restless Duanmu Haoyang didn't notice it, and a purple head appeared behind a sand dune in the distance, watching all his movements.
On the night of the seventh day, Duanmu Haoyang decided to temporarily give up exploration and try to explore the treasure after improving his soul power. He was keeping an eye on the situation of the Blue Bone Kings around him every day, preparing to attack and kill one of them tonight. The radius of the divine consciousness coverage was controlled at fifty meters, and he quietly approached the sand dunes where the Blue Bone King was hiding......
Duanmu Haoyang didn't know that the Purple Bone King was nearby, and when he started to act, the Purple Bone King was also approaching another Blue Bone King.
