Chapter 32: Merging with Dragon Bones (First Update)

  Ye Chen tightly closed his door and carefully looked around through the window to make sure no one was there. After confirming that, he tightly closed the window and then took out the thing he had taken from the giant pit from his pocket.

  It's not that Ye Chen was being overly cautious, but this matter was of great importance. To know, at the time it had shocked even the Sect Master of Lianyun Sect, who personally went to investigate.

  Ye Chen carefully placed it in front of him, gently wiping off the dust on its surface with his hand. After a moment, a section of bones emitting a faint golden color appeared before Ye Chen.

  "What's this? A single bone?"

  Ye Chen picked it up with a puzzled expression, holding it in front of his eyes for a closer look. The skeleton had only one joint, but it was hard to tell which part of the human body it belonged to, or if it even belonged to a human at all.

  The skeleton is the size of an adult's arm, with a faint golden glow emanating from its surface. Upon closer inspection, a small golden dragon can be seen attached to the inside of the skeleton, moving back and forth within it as the glow strengthens or weakens.

  Ye Chen's face changed color in shock, his eyes wide with wonder as he stared at the skeleton, exclaiming to himself: "This... this must be a dragon bone!!!"

  Dragon, a magical and powerful divine beast, the lowest-ranking member of the dragon tribe, is also extremely powerful among the demon beasts. The cheapest of those red dragons, green dragons, spirit dragons, etc., have at least the strength of a 9th-tier demon beast. Some newly born little dragons also possess the strength of a 6th or 7th-tier demon beast. A few rare and powerful dragon tribes even have the power to rival gods, such as the legendary Five-Clawed Golden Dragon, Purple Light Divine Dragon, Dark Black Divine Dragon, etc. The dragon bone that Ye Chen obtained now emits a faint golden glow, with a small golden dragon swimming inside its skeletal structure - this is the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon!

  Ye Chen was stunned, staring at the skeleton in his hand for a long time without saying a word, unsure of what to do. After all, this was just one section of dragon bone, but the violent power it possessed was absolutely not something an ordinary person could withstand. If he accidentally triggered it, the entire Lianyun Sect might be destroyed in an instant.

  Now, such a dragon bone has appeared in Ye Chen's hands, making him feel like he has gotten a hot potato and doesn't know how to deal with it. If he can't handle it properly, it may lead to disaster.

  Ye Chen's hands were dragging the dragon bone, cold sweat kept falling from his face, and his heart was already tight with anxiety: What to do! What should I do!

  He hadn't noticed at all that the cold sweat on his forehead had dripped onto the dragon bone and was quickly absorbed by it.

  A moment later, Ye Chen took a deep breath and gently placed it on the table, pacing back and forth in the room.

  However, Ye Chen did not notice that at the moment he placed the dragon bone on the table, the dragon bone suddenly emitted a soft glow on its own. The small golden dragon in the dragon bone seemed to have gained spirituality and turned its head to look at Ye Chen.

  "This dragon bone can be said to be a treasure, but now I'm just a cultivator of the third realm, and this thing in my hands will probably bring me disaster. You know, 'a common man is innocent, but if he holds a precious jade, he'll be guilty'!"

  Ye Chen's eyebrows were tightly furrowed as he stared at the dragon bone quietly placed on the table, his brow furrowed even more deeply. He took a deep breath and muttered to himself: "Otherwise, should I send it back?"

  However, just as Ye Chen was hesitating, the conference hall of the Lianyun Sect's high-level officials was packed with people, and even the lowest-ranking ones were among the top ten masters of the inner sect.

  Ji sat high, a faint murderous intent visible between his eyebrows, his eyes scanning the faces of the crowd before he spoke: "There's actually nothing in the giant pit, this is impossible, it can't be that a huge palm print pit just appeared out of thin air!"

  Then, Ji Wu's gaze tightly stared at Xu Feng and the other direct disciples: "Feng Er, you and these direct disciples were the first to arrive, have you discovered anything unusual?"

  Xu Feng furrowed his brow, and suddenly remembered that when he had just arrived somewhere, he felt that there might be someone hiding behind a tree not far away. However, at the time, Liu Yuer was talking to herself, so he didn't pay attention. Later, he sensed it again and found nothing unusual, so he didn't take a closer look. Now that he thought about it, he suspected that there really might be someone there.

  Xu Feng sank into thought for a moment, then respectfully said to Ji Wu: "Master, when I first arrived, there was nothing unusual around me, not even one person! The other disciples can all testify to this."

  Xu Feng didn't spread the word about this matter. Firstly, he was extremely afraid of Ji Wu Nai and knew that if he said anything, Ji Wu Nai would inevitably blame him. In the current situation, Xu Feng had to curry favor with Ji Wu Nai; only then would he have the greatest opportunity when it came time to elect the next sect leader. Secondly, it was Xu Feng's own selfish desire. If there really were people there at that time, they would undoubtedly be disciples of the Lian Yun Sect. By secretly investigating, he might be able to seize the treasure for himself.

  Ji couldn't bear to look at Xu Feng again, and afterwards, he didn't suspect Xu Feng's words. After all, there were still seven other personal disciples left, if they had discovered something, Xu Feng would have absolutely dared not hide it.

  Ji couldn't bear to look at the crowd, and after a moment of contemplation, he opened his mouth and ordered: "Everyone, go down! This matter must not be spread outside, or it will bring unnecessary trouble to our Lianyun Sect!" Then, looking at Xu Feng and others, he slowly said: "Direct disciples stay behind!"

  As the sound of Ji Wu's voice fell, everyone bowed respectfully and slowly dispersed, leaving only Xu Feng and other direct disciples still present.

  Ji couldn't bear to look at Xu Feng and the others, furrowed his brow, and slowly spoke: "You all go there first, I won't ask anything else. Whoever finds what's in the giant pit and hands it over to me will be the Young Master of Lianyun Sect. After I step down, they'll be the Sect Master!"

  As soon as this was said, Xu Feng and others were shocked. No one had expected that Ji Wu would actually choose the next master of the door in such a way.

  In that case, everyone can say that they are on the same starting line, and whoever finds something will inevitably become the young master, and at that time, there will be no need to care about Xu Feng anymore!

  "Yes!"

  Everyone had a joyful expression and bowed to Ji Wu, but Xu Feng's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

  Ji couldn't bear to look at Xu Feng's expression, and smiled slightly before saying to the crowd: "All of you go first, Wind stays behind!"

  "Yes!"

  Everyone respectfully bowed to him, then turned around and flew outwards. Liu Yuer looked deeply at Xue Feng as she was about to leave, but it's unknown what she was thinking.

  "Master, why did you keep your apprentice back?"

  Xu Feng furrowed his brow slightly, looking at Ji Wu Nai with some discontent in his heart towards Ji's decision just now. After all, among the crowd, his own cultivation was the highest and his talent was the greatest, so it was only natural that he should be the next sect master.

  Ji couldn't help but notice Xu Feng's discontent, and he smiled slightly: "Feng Er, a sect can only have one Sect Master, the rest can have some Elders, but the position of the Sect Master must be unshakeable, do you understand what I mean?"

  Listening to Ji Wu's words, Xu Feng sank into thought for a moment, then his face lit up with joy, and the discontent in his heart was swept away. He understood that Ji Wu's decision this time was to help him establish his authority. He hastily bowed to Ji Wu: "Disciple understands, this is an opportunity, disciple will definitely think of a way to make them surrender willingly!"

  "Understood! You can go now!" Ji gave a slight smile and waved his hand at Xu Feng.

  "Yes!"

  Xu Feng bowed slightly in the direction of Ji, then immediately turned around and flew outwards, wanting to seize the opportunity to find the mysterious object in the giant pit before everyone else.

  Ji couldn't bear to watch Xufeng leave, so he picked up some dust from behind him and gently smelled it on the tip of his nose. This dust was what Yechen had cleaned off the dragon bones at first and left in the pit.

  Then, Ji couldn't help but take a deep breath and muttered to himself: "It's the dragon's flavor, it's the dragon's flavor......!"

  ————

  But at this time, Ye Chen was still hesitating about what to do with this dragon bone.

  However, just as Ye Chen was hesitating about how to deal with this dragon bone, the dragon bone that was originally placed on the table suddenly floated in mid-air and rushed towards Ye Chen.

  Ye Chen was shocked and hastily wanted to dodge, but it was already too late...

  As soon as the dragon bone came into contact with Ye Chen, it directly transformed into a golden light that entered Ye Chen's body. In an instant, Ye Chen felt an unbearable pain in his entire skeletal system, as if something was trying to forcibly enter his bones.

  A faint golden light burst out from Ye Chen's body in an instant, filling the entire room with a golden glow.

  Ye Chen's body slowly floated up, enduring the dizzying feeling from the pain, gritting his teeth and muttering in a low voice: "Damn it... what the heck!"

  However, the dragon bone turned into a golden light as soon as it entered Ye Chen's body, covering all of his skeletal system, including the joints on his hands. It began to merge with Ye Chen's original skeleton. The small golden dragon that was originally in the joint also burst out and rushed towards Ye Chen's right arm...

  Time passed minute by minute, second by second. Ye Chen endured the pain that spread throughout his body, but he didn't dare to shout loudly. He could only let out a low, unceasing roar, with curses constantly pouring out of his mouth.

  "My grass, play me!"

  "But I'll take you out of this giant pit!"

  "My god... I'm dying of pain!"

  The intense pain lasted for about a minute, and Ye Chen felt that the pain all over his body was also gradually easing. The golden light emanating from Ye Chen's body also gradually faded until it completely disappeared...

  Ye Chen fell from mid-air, his brow furrowed as he stared at his own hands, muttering in shock: "What exactly happened? How did the dragon bone enter my body directly?"

  Ye Chen's eyes flickered, and then he suddenly raised his right arm. On the surface of his right arm, a golden dragon pattern appeared, vividly attached to Ye Chen's arm. After a moment, the pattern gradually disappeared, and Ye Chen's right arm returned to its original state.

  Ye Chen couldn't believe his eyes as he stared at his own body, muttering in shock: "Could it be... could it be that the Dragon Bone has merged with me?!"
