Chapter 410: Ancient Spirit

For Shen Shi, it was difficult to associate the skeleton in front of him with the huge skull placed on the dragon vein altar he had seen before, just thinking of an ordinary person's body with a huge head like a mound, this strange scene was still unacceptable even if Shen Shi was well-informed.

Could it be that the great ancestor of the demon clan was such a strange monster?

Or is this skeleton in front of him not the remains of the Heavenly Demon Emperor at all?

All kinds of questions came to Shen Shi's mind at once, when Huang Ming explained these things to him, he didn't mention these things at all, in fact, Huang Ming's original words were also from the huge skull to calculate that the bones of the Heavenly Demon Emperor in the secret room must also be huge.

Shen Shi stood still and stared at the skeleton for a long time, and only after his shocked mood calmed down a little before he began to look around. Under the light of the fire in the palm of his hand, the surrounding area of the stone platform was also illuminated, but there seemed to be nothing of any note, the rough ground was hard rock, and perhaps the only difference from the outside world was the colorful crystals that glowed with a strange and beautiful luster everywhere in this secret room.

If the stone bone in front of him is really the Heavenly Demon Emperor who is worshiped and admired by the powerful demon clan who has ruled the Hongmeng world for a long time, then the environment here is inevitably a little too simple. Shen Shi withdrew his gaze from the side and began to look at the headless skeleton in front of him again.

No matter how you look at it, this is a skeleton that is no different from that of the human race, except for the faint and warm luster that flashes on the bone, like jade, Shen Shi can't see any difference. The scene in front of him was completely different from what Shen Shi and Huang Ming had guessed, he stood there and muttered for a long time, and finally decided that no matter what, no matter what happened in the past or what the truth he didn't know, he promised Huang Ming and came here, so what should be done must be done.

The bright and burning fireball slowly rose into the air, emitting light calmly but steadily, and at the same time, Shen Shi reached out and took out a jade bottle from the Ruyi bag that was half the length of his hand. He glanced at the bones on the stone platform, frowned slightly, and then showed a solemn look on his face, carefully uncorked the jade bottle, and then poured it over the white bones.

A thick black and viscous thing that looked like black silt slowly flowed out of the jade bottle, falling little by little from mid-air, as if time had suddenly slowed down, dripping down on the bones.

The surroundings were eerily quiet, and Shen Shi stared intently at the black thing until the "black sludge" fell on the white bone. There was no sound or violentness, the black mud was just gently clinging to the bones, but if you looked closely, you could see that at the point where the black mud came into contact with the white bones, a strange black color was slowly penetrating into the originally warm bones.

Everything went on in silence, and even Shen Shi himself couldn't help but hold his breath, slowly dripping these strange black mud onto the white bones, from hands to feet, to chest and spine, without falling at all. The same jade bottle actually had ten more in his Ruyi bag, which Huang Ming had given him, and they had thought that they were dealing with huge bones like a mountain, but at this time, just one jade bottle was more than enough.

Shen Shi didn't know what this strange black mud was, but when Huang Ming handed it to him, he looked very cautious, and told him many times to be careful, but it is conceivable that even Huang Ming and other characters have to be cautious about what it must be an ordinary thing. Although Shen Shi had never understood where Huang Ming, who had been trapped under the demon clan's underground palace for many years and had not seen the light of day, could find such a thing that could actually deal with the remains of the Heavenly Demon Emperor, but since Huang Ming had confessed, he would do so.

When the last of the black mud also dripped down, completely staining the painful curled bones black, Shen Shi retreated from the stone platform, and then hid far away, chose a corner away from the stone platform, and sat down.

The flaming fireball had been extinguished at some point, the light had disappeared from the chamber, and darkness had enveloped everything again. Shen Shi sat quietly in the dark, silently waiting.

&&&

I don't know when it started, in the silent darkness, a strange sound suddenly sounded, distant and weird, like the sound of insects chirping, and like the sound of spring silkworms eating mulberries in spring, little by little, slightly echoing.

Suddenly, a crisp sound suddenly appeared, like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, instantly stirring up a noisy ripple, and the sound of insects suddenly flourished, buzzing one after another, and then a light suddenly lit up from the depths of darkness.

It was a wisp of white light, bursting out in the deepest darkness, and through that light, Shen Shi could clearly see that the white light was shining from a thick black sludge, and the white bones under the black mud had been penetrated by the black for nearly half, and it was still constantly transforming from white to black.

The originally warm and jade-colored bones had begun to turn black, and that white light, like a final struggle, was emitted from inside the bones. It's just that surrounded by this thick black like ink, this light is extremely fragile, and gradually, this light gradually dimmed.

When everything returns to darkness, when the strange sound no longer sounds, it is like a road has finally come to an end, and a life will finally come to an end.

In silence, it was as if there was nothing, as if everything had disappeared.

Shen Shi waited for a long time before he slowly stood up and walked cautiously towards the stone platform, when a burning fireball was ignited by him again, floating in the air, emitting light in all directions.

Everything is still calm, there is no imaginary earth-shattering scene, perhaps no matter how great a life is, it will be difficult to resist death and the erosion of time, and the strength will eventually fall silent, and everything will eventually disappear.

On the stone platform, the black mud was scattered, but what was shocking was that the white skeleton not only turned black at this moment, but also the bones were shattered inch by inch, turning into countless black fragments, scattered messily on the stone platform.

Is this the legendary broken bones......

Shen Shi stared over there, his pupils contracted slightly, and suddenly it occurred to him what kind of hatred Huang Ming had for his ancestors, or the demon clan he was born in?

That Heavenly Demon Emperor who only existed in legends, was the final ending like this? Shen Shi was a little dazed, but just when he was in a trance for a moment, suddenly, an ancient aura suddenly appeared on the stone platform.

The silent darkness suddenly began to become turbulent like a storm rolled up in the sea, Shen Shi was taken aback, and subconsciously wanted to retreat, but suddenly he only felt that his body was heavy, and an indescribable terrifying force directly pressed him down in front of this stone platform.

He struggled desperately, but he was unable to break free, and when he looked up, he saw a pair of huge eyes with a deep red glow, revealing in the deep darkness above the stone platform.

The breath of antiquity and vicissitudes came out of nowhere, and everything seemed to be different.

When those ancient eyes fell on Shen Shi, who was struggling on the ground like ants, a voice suddenly echoed in this darkness, like a call through the vicissitudes of time, ringing in Shen Shi's ears:

"My son, have you come to save me......
