Chapter Seventy-Three: Skeleton

  Young man? Yi Chen's face flashed with a strange color, could it be that those people were waiting for him?

  "After waiting for so many days, did you finally wait for him?" Although there were some guesses, Yi Chen pretended to be completely unaware and said.

  "This is not the case, he just appeared in the Dou Ling arena a few times and then disappeared like a ghost." Jia Xin's face was filled with helplessness.

  "Your time is really abundant, won't you keep waiting if he doesn't show up?" Upon hearing this sentence, Yi Chen knew they were waiting for him and smiled.

  "From what others have said, that person is only sixteen or seventeen years old, but at the very least is a three-star magic appraiser. A genius like this, if we can recruit them and give them some training, will definitely become a four-star or even five-star magic appraiser."

  "And the Imperial Mirror Master Conference is about to begin, if he can represent our family and win the championship, then the reputation of our Jia family will be thoroughly established." Jia Xin said excitedly.

  "Devil Mirror Master Conference?" Upon hearing these words, a strange light flashed in Yi Chen's eyes.

  The Mysterious Mirror Master Conference is the largest grand gathering of the Yuan Xuan Empire, hosted by the Mysterious Mirror Master Association. At that time, the top mysterious mirror masters of the Yuan Xuan Empire will all come to participate.

  Such a grand occasion, as long as you can win the championship, you will surely make a name for yourself throughout the empire overnight.

  At first, Iwao was crowned champion at the Mahjong Master's Tournament and then rose to fame.

  If Yichen didn't remember incorrectly, the new session of the Mojian Master Conference will be held two months later.

  "If I were also a Mo Jian Shi, that would be great. If I could win the championship, there would definitely be many beauties throwing themselves at me." Jia Xin said with a hopeful tone.

  "Don't dream on, the championship isn't that easy to get." Yi Chen smiled faintly and shook off his distractions, saying: "Your injury has healed now, when are you preparing to enter the Tian Du Forest?"

  "Why don't we set off now? I'm afraid if we go later, those bird people led by Gu Lin will discover us and get ahead of us." Jia Xin thought for a moment before asking.

  "Then let's set off now." Yi Chen sensed the soul power filling his beast soul and nodded, saying this.

  Everything was ready, and Yi Chen didn't hesitate. He left the Armory with Gu Lin, heading in the direction of the Tian Du Forest.

  Half an hour later, Yi Chen and the others arrived at the Tian Du Forest.

  Without hesitation, Yi Chen and the other person entered the forest, and suddenly a foul smell of rotting leaves assailed their nostrils.

  "Lead the way." Although he knew where the cemetery was, Yi Chen didn't want to cause any misunderstanding, so he turned his head and said to Jia Xin.

  "Uh-huh." Jia Xin nodded and then manipulated his soul power, taking Yi Chen with him as they darted through the forest.

  "I don't know if Tian Du Forest really has a spiritual stone vein." As he journeyed on, Yi Chen recalled the information Cai Wei had revealed to him that day.

  "Never mind, it's not the time to explore these things yet." The Tian Du Forest had seen fifth-level magical beasts before, so Yi Chen didn't dare be careless. He drove away the distractions in his heart and followed Gu Lin from behind.

  "We're here."

  After half an hour's journey, after flashing a row of big trees, the environment in front of us suddenly became clear. A cave appeared in front of us, and if we looked carefully, it was the entrance to a tomb.

  "This place is really remote, I don't know how you found your way in." Yi Chen said, looking around the surroundings.

  "Heh heh, it's a coincidence, I was originally hunting a level 4 magical beast and ended up being led to this place." Jia Xin explained with a smile as he led Yi Chen into the tomb.

  Inside and cave are no different, but the surrounding walls have obviously been artificially polished, very delicate.

  Carefully observing, Yi Chen discovered that the place had been turned into a cave by the magical beasts, with only one accompanying burial table being intact, but it was also on the verge of collapse, covered in spider webs.

  "I've searched all over here, but only found two treasures. Let's go to the second floor." As soon as he mentioned treasure, a look of displeasure flashed across Jia Xin's face, and then he led Yi Chen to a corner.

  Here was blocked by a stone, Jia Xin directly operated his soul power and moved the stone away. Suddenly, a tunnel appeared before their eyes.

  "It's so hidden that if you don't observe carefully, you won't find it at all." After saying this, Yi Chen and Jia Xin walked into the tunnel together.

  It was very dark inside, but having reached the Zhenyuan Realm, they could see objects at night, which didn't affect Yi Chen and the others.

  In an unfamiliar environment, Yi Chen was extremely vigilant, his soul power subtly circulating, like a fierce beast lurking in the meridians, waiting to be unleashed.

  After a while, the two of them soon arrived at the end, where there was a spacious space, and several human skeletons could be seen. However, it was strange that their hands and feet were all locked with chains.

  "Are these people buried with him?" Jia Xin walked forward and said, upon discovering the human skeletons.

  "It's not like that, if it were really a burial, it wouldn't be wearing something like this." Yi Chen said after carefully observing it for a while and shaking his head.

  He examined these skeletons more closely and found that their frames were much larger than those of ordinary people, especially the skull, which was one-third larger than that of an average human being.

  "What a strange skeleton." Curiosity flashed across his face as Yi Chen reached out to touch one of the bones.

  "Crack." As soon as Ke Yi Chen touched the corpse, it instantly shattered and turned into a pile of powder.

  "I don't know how many years have passed, but even their skeletons have become so fragile." Yi Chen's face flashed with surprise.

  "It's really strange, I don't know where the owner of this tomb's remains are." Jia Xin wasn't interested in these things and started wandering around the graveyard on this level.

  Yi Chen was also strange, but he didn't look for it, and instead put his gaze on another skeleton. He reached out to touch it, and found that the corpse hadn't turned to dust.

  "Really?" Seeing this situation, Yi Chen's face flashed with surprise, and then he picked up one of the hand bones.

  "After so many years, this corpse has not decomposed. It seems that the owner of these bones must have had a high level of cultivation before death."

  The cultivator's skeleton and flesh will also be strengthened while improving their cultivation, and this skeleton has gone through many years without shattering, so Yicheng made such a judgment.

  "Hiss." Yi Chen concentrated his soul power in both arms, and then used force to try to pry open the finger bone, but found that it was all in vain. The finger bone remained intact and undamaged.

  "It's so hard, to this extent, it's not something that an ordinary cultivator can possess. The deceased's cultivation before death is probably not lower than the Xuanhun realm!" Yi Chen came to a shocking conclusion.

  Xuanhun Realm, even in the Yuanyuan Empire, is a top-notch existence. Why did it fall in such a place and get locked up with chains, dying so miserably?

  It's not just that, there are also four corpses next to it. Yi Chen probed and found that the four corpses were even harder than the previous one, obviously their cultivation before death was stronger than the previous one.

  "What's going on? How could such a strong person die in such a miserable way in this place?"
