Chapter 4753 Mysterious Bone Palm

Upon hearing the name "Peach Blossom Forest," Liu Wuxie's face showed urgency.

“When we fled, we headed east. According to their description, the peach blossom forest seemed to be in the southwest, but we don’t know the exact location.”

Murong Yi pondered for a moment and gave a general location.

In the Heavenly Realm, a hundred miles is a distance that can be covered in the blink of an eye. But here is the Shocking Domain, where one must travel on foot. It is extremely difficult to travel a hundred miles in a single day.

As one's cultivation level increases, even if one cannot fly, one's speed will increase accordingly. Now, when using the Free and Easy Steps, one is as fast as the wind, several times faster than when one first entered.

After determining the direction, Liu Wuxie quickly disappeared from the spot.

Around a misty area a hundred miles away, a number of cultivators gathered. They dared not approach and could only watch from afar.

Deep within the misty miasma, one can vaguely see peach blossoms in full bloom, laden with fruit.

"Is that the legendary Soul-Cleansing Fruit? Swallowing one can resist the erosion of the Soul-Binding Night Fiend."

Whispers of discussion drifted from the surrounding misty area.

Not long ago, some ancient beings finally recognized the Soul-Binding Night Fiend. The news spread quickly, and a large number of cultivators learned about the origin of the Soul-Binding Night Fiend and understood that as long as they consumed the Soul-Cleansing Fruit, they could resist the Soul-Binding Night Fiend.

For the past two days, people have been searching everywhere for the whereabouts of the Soul-Cleansing Fruit.

Without the Soul-Cleansing Fruit, one dares not roam freely in the Amazing Domain, constantly fearing being corrupted by the Soul-Binding Night Fiend.

"I heard that someone found an ancient artifact. Although it was incomplete, by relying on the ancient artifact laws within it, he broke through from the ninth level of the Half-Saint realm to the ninth level of the Earth Saint realm in just a few days."

Then another voice came out.

Jinghong Domain was once a core location on the battlefield, so it's normal that some damaged weapons were left behind.

As time has passed, many weapons have long since decayed or sunk underground, and very few intact weapons can be found.

Even a broken artifact from the ancient divine realm is enough to drive countless people mad.

"I've heard this news too. It seems to be about the patriarch of a small family. His luck is just too incredible. If he can break through to the Extreme Earth Saint realm, wouldn't he jump into a top-tier family in one fell swoop?"

Many envious voices came from all around, and everyone's eyes revealed a burning desire, which intensified their desire for the Soul-Cleansing Fruit.

While they were discussing, another person forced their way through the fog and mist, heading deeper into the fog.

"Which group is this?"

The surrounding chatter abruptly ceased, and all eyes turned to the few cultivators who had slipped into the misty haze.

"This is the fifth batch. The previous batches all turned into monsters and came out. I wonder if these people will be able to successfully pick the Soul Cleansing Fruit."

While everyone was talking, the group quickly disappeared into the mist and miasma.

"Everyone get ready. If they turn into monsters and come out, you must find a way to kill them. If you get bitten by them, you will soon become like them."

Just now, many more cultivators arrived here. They didn't know what had happened before. The first group of cultivators who arrived could only warn the later ones not to be soft-hearted.

They had made a similar mistake before, and as a result, they were bitten by one of the cultivators who was tainted by the Soul-Binding Night Fiend. The Soul-Binding Night Fiend quickly took control of their bodies and began to hunt down their companions, resulting in the deaths of several people.

Time passed slowly, and half an hour went by in a flash. The fog and miasma were quiet, and there was no sound of fighting, which was extremely strange.

"Why has so much time passed without any movement?"

The cultivators gathered on the periphery frowned slightly and asked with puzzled expressions.

"Did they all die inside?"

They couldn't think of anything else.

Just as everyone was about to step forward to investigate, a hand devoid of flesh and blood emerged from the mist and reached out to grab the nearest cultivator.

The scene was extremely bizarre. Under normal circumstances, when the body is possessed by the Soul-Binding Night Fiend, the physical body is intact, but the internal organs are festering. This suddenly protruding bone hand was truly eerie.

What's even more terrifying is that this bone palm seems to have been dead for countless years, and it's definitely not one of those cultivators who just died.

The cultivator who was locked on had no time to dodge; the bone palm was too fast, unbelievably fast.

In an instant, the bone palm pierced through the cultivator's arm, firmly grasping him and rendering him unable to move, controlled by the bone palm.

"Quickly cut off the arm!"

Seeing this, the other cultivators urged him to quickly cut off his own arm, otherwise his entire body would be dragged into the miasma.

The captured cultivator dared not hesitate. He immediately drew his weapon and cut off his left arm to free himself from the entanglement of the bone palm. Ignoring his injuries, he retreated into the distance.

After the bone palm grabbed an arm, it quickly disappeared into the misty fog, and no one knew what had happened.

The cultivators gathered around the misty miasma were all filled with fear. The aura emanating from that bone palm had sent chills down their spines. Even the several supreme Earth Saints present felt immense pressure.

In the past five or six days, many top-tier Earth Saints have successfully broken through to the Extreme Earth Saint Realm. Upon learning that the Soul Cleansing Fruit had appeared here, they rushed over immediately.

"Elder Mu, do you know the origin of this bone palm?"

To the right of the misty miasma, on a flat area, stood a dozen cultivators, each with profound cultivation. Several extreme Earth Saints were also present, along with many top-tier Earth Saints.

The one who spoke was a powerful Earth Saint, whose gaze fell on an old man named Mu Jun. He was also a cultivator from the Ancient God Domain. After the split, he chose to go into seclusion until the Jinghong Domain was born, at which point he chose to emerge from seclusion.

"Judging from the lines on his palm, he doesn't seem to be a cultivator from the Heavenly Realm."

Mu Jun pondered for a moment before stating his opinion.

"how do I say this?"

The people around asked in confusion.

"His palm contains the rules of the divine realm, proving that this skeleton was a cultivator from the ancient divine realm when he was alive. It's just unclear why he can still hurt people after being dead for so many years."

Mu Jun frowned slightly and told him what he knew.

After hearing Mu Jun's description, the people around him looked shocked.

“Strange, if these skeletons were cultivators from the Ancient Divine Realm in their lifetime, they should have been able to survive in the Heavenly Realm just like us, spread their branches and leaves, and develop and expand the Heavenly Realm. Why can’t we find any trace of other races living in the Jinghong Realm?”

Another Earth Saint Realm expert asked, puzzled.

When the Heavenly Realm was first split, it was a scene of devastation. It was only through the hard work of countless predecessors over many years that the Heavenly Realm has achieved its current prosperity.

In essence, the Heavenly Domain and the Soaring Swan Domain are no different. The only difference is that the Soaring Swan Domain is closer to the Ancient God Domain, and its rules are preserved more completely. That's all.

"It is indeed a bit strange. The Soul-Binding Night Fiend did not form in a short time. In the hundreds of thousands of years after the Jinghong Domain split, the Soul-Binding Night Fiend was still in the gestation period. If there were other humans in the Jinghong Domain, they would have been able to suppress the formation of the Soul-Binding Night Fiend during these years. In fact, the traces that the Jinghong Domain has preserved now are no different from those from 300,000 years ago, proving that these skeletons had already died back then."

Everyone shared their thoughts.

After studying them for a long time, they still couldn't figure out how these skeletons were formed or how they caused harm.

Another half hour passed, and the fog returned to calm. It seemed that all those who had gone in earlier had disappeared.

"It's strange. Those who went in before, even though their bodies were possessed by the Soul-Binding Night Fiend, at least came out. Why is it that these people who went in disappeared without a trace, as if they had sunk into the sea?"

Everyone looked at the fog and miasma with dread.

"What should we do? Are we just going to give up like this? We can indeed see the shadow of the Soul-Cleansing Fruit through the mist. If we can't get the Soul-Cleansing Fruit, we can only move around on the outskirts and can't enter the places where the Soul-Binding Night Fiends appear. According to the information reported back by others, wherever the Soul-Binding Night Fiends gather, it must be the core location of the battlefield, and the probability of finding the treasure is extremely high."

Many people waved their fists fiercely and said angrily.

"Even the Supreme Earth Saint isn't in a hurry, so why should we be!"

Some cultivators also planned to take advantage of the chaos, waiting for the Supreme Earth Saints and Earth Saint experts to make their move, and then sneak in during the confusion, hoping to snatch one or two Soul-Cleansing Fruits.

When Liu Wuxie arrived, it was already dusk. He took out a mask from his storage ring and put it on. With his current cultivation level and the power of the rules he had set up, he could withstand the detection of an Extreme Dao Earth Saint.

After putting on the mask, he walked into the crowd.

As long as there is no war, no one knows his true identity.

"Brother, what happened? Why are you all gathered on the outskirts?"

Liu Wuxie found a secluded spot and asked a half-saint realm cultivator.

He kept his cultivation at the ninth level of the Half-Saint realm, neither too high nor too low, so that he could both deceive the five major powers and deter the villains from plotting against him.

"Brother, you're new here, aren't you?"

The cultivator who was asked glanced at Liu Wuxie's mask, a hint of wariness on his face, but still recounted everything that had happened.

Upon hearing about the mysterious bone palm technique, a strange look appeared in Liu Wuxie's eyes.

"Thank you for informing me, brother!"

After obtaining all the information, Liu Wuxie turned and walked towards the edge of the misty miasma. He needed to confirm his suspicions.

"Long Ling, could that bone hand you mentioned be the remains of the Heavenly God Army?"

Liu Wuxie asked Long Ling.

This place was the core area of ​​the battlefield back then, where a large number of Heavenly Gods fell. Since bone palms have appeared, the probability of skeletons appearing is extremely high.

The denser the death energy in a place, the easier it is for Soul-Binding Night Fiends to be born. This place must have been a core area back then, where countless cultivators died, which led to the formation of Soul-Binding Night Fiends and ultimately turned it into this state.

If that's the case, he must go inside, collect all the remains of the Heavenly Army, and let their souls return to their homeland.

"The specifics are unclear. Besides the Heavenly God Army, there should also be alien skeletons. The reason why the master chose the Jinghong Domain as the battlefield was because it was sparsely populated. Although there were large cities inhabited by humans, the master notified them in advance and they had already moved away from this place. Only a small number of people remained in the Jinghong Domain and died in that battle."

Long Ling said uncertainly.

Only by venturing deep into the miasma can the true cause be found.

"In that case, I'll go in and take a look!"

Without any hesitation, Liu Wuxie decided to investigate. Obtaining the Soul-Cleansing Fruit was one aspect, but he also needed to collect the remains of the Heavenly God Army and improve the cultivation of the Eighteen Yin Gods.
