"Foolish humans, you're too weak."
The demonic beast the size of a small mountain directly tore apart the iron rod on the cage and walked out of the cage.
At this time, the cage had already been reduced to ashes.
The three-legged, two-eared cauldron left the monster's hand and floated in the air. It spun a few times and then shrank. Finally, it entered Fang Chen's dantian.
"Brat, I didn't expect the three-legged, two-eared cauldron to choose you. Then you must die," said the Sky Bone King loudly as he stared at Fang Chen.
This sudden turn of events caused Fang Chen to be stunned.
"Fang Chen, what's going on?" asked Hei Tai and Lin Lu anxiously.
The monster in front of them was too strong. Just by standing there quietly, they didn't even have the courage to attack.
And the thing that opened the monster's cage was clearly the mysterious cauldron in Fang Chen's body.
So Hei Tai and Lin Lu were very puzzled.
Fang Chen's eyes flickered. He tried to communicate with the cauldron, but found that the lid didn't move at all. He couldn't open it at all. He didn't know what was going on inside.
"Brat, don't try to open the cauldron. I paid a great price to stabilize the head inside the cauldron.
But it's all worth it. I, the Sky Bone King, have regained my freedom, "laughed the Sky Bone King.
He placed his claws on the ground, causing the ground to tremble.
The Sky Bone King. Fang Chen's eyes lit up. He looked at the tiger-type monster and said, "You're the owner of that saber, the Sky Bone King's enemy."
"Hmph, that damned Sky Bone King. What qualifications does he have to be called a quasi King? I'm the true quasi King!" roared the Sky Bone King furiously.
The breath coming out of its nostrils made Fang Chen's blood boil.
Star and Moon looked at the Sky Bone King gravely. They didn't say anything.
Right now, it was useless to say anything. They had to think of a way to escape.
"Brother Chen," called Star and Moon.
Fang Chen knew that Star and Moon wanted Fang Chen to communicate with the cauldron.
Since it was the big cauldron that had released Sky Bone King, it would naturally be the big cauldron that would deal with Sky Bone King.
"This damnable cauldron! If I didn't want to borrow its power to break out of this cage, how could I, the grand Heavenly Bone King, have lost my most precious heart?" said the Heavenly Bone King.
Fang Chen was taken aback. He vaguely understood what was going on.
The head in the cauldron seemed to want to absorb the power of the ancient expert.
As for Adept Calamity, the reason why he was able to come out seemed to be because he had reached some sort of agreement with the head in the cauldron.
Although Adept Calamity seemed to have retreated in defeat, he had actually lured them here.
The head in the cauldron took action and shattered the cage, releasing the Heavenly Bone King.
The Sky Bone Monarch sacrificed his own heart to pacify the head in the cauldron so that it could not deal with him.
Upon thinking of this, Fang Chen felt a chill run down his spine, as a helpless expression appeared on his face.
"What should we do?" asked Hei Tai.
He did not want to die. If he, Hei Tai, did not die, he would definitely shine brightly when he went out this time. He would definitely become an expert whose name would shake the Ancient Sword Continent in the future.
He was unwilling to accept this. As long as there was a chance, he would definitely not give up.
Similarly, Lin Lu did not want to die either. At this moment, the two of them looked at Fang Chen with burning gazes.
They vaguely felt that the source of this matter was Fang Chen.
"We must think of a way to escape from here," said Lin Lu.
The Heavenly Bone King was the owner of the battle saber in the statue's hand. He was at the same level as the Heavenly Void King, a quasi-King-level expert.
Such an expert was not someone that they, who had just entered the True Martial Realm, could compare to.
"Brother Chen." Star and Moon looked at Fang Chen and asked.
Fang Chen shook his head and fell silent.
If it was an ordinary True Martial Realm expert, he could still fight. However, he was powerless against a quasi-King-level expert.
"You few ants can die now." The Heavenly Bone King laughed sinisterly as he raised his claw. A gust of wind and clouds surged around him, and a chill attacked.
Seeing that the Heavenly Bone King wanted to kill the four of them, Adept of Calamity hurriedly stopped him.
"Lord Heavenly Bone King, I have a suggestion," said Adept of Calamity.
"Okay." The Heavenly Bone King's claw floated in the air as he said in a deep voice.
"Lord Heavenly Bone King has regained your freedom. The vast Ancient Sword Continent will also be your territory. When the time comes, you can let them do some trivial things," said Adept of Calamity.
When the Heavenly Bone King heard this, he instantly understood.
Adept of Calamity's suggestion was to let the four of them be his servants.
"If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten."
As a quasi-King-level expert, the Heavenly Bone King naturally could not do everything by himself.
"Okay. You can live, but you will all be my servants," said the Heavenly Bone King.
"Run!"
Right at this moment, Hei Tai shouted in a low voice. He pushed his speed to the limit and escaped directly.
"How dare you run away in front of me, the Heavenly Bone King!"
When the Heavenly Bone King saw this, he stretched out his claw and immediately pierced through the void to grab Hei Tai.
In the next moment, Hei Tai's body fell to the ground directly, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
"I'll give you all a chance. Submit to me," said the Heavenly Bone King.
As soon as the Heavenly Bone King's voice fell, he did not give the four of them any chance at all. A strange aura emitted from his head, and then it split into four and drilled into the four's minds.
Hiss! Hiss!
The four of them wanted to resist, but it was to no avail.
When the four strange auras drilled into the four's minds, they instantly controlled their souls.
In an instant, the four of them looked at the Heavenly Bone King with dull eyes.
"Master." The four of them cupped their hands and called out.
When the Heavenly Bone King saw this, he nodded in satisfaction and said, "Although the four of you are a little weak, you have contributed to me regaining my freedom. From now on, follow me, the Heavenly Bone King."
When the four of them heard this, they nodded in a daze.
At this moment, Fang Chen's eyes flickered for a moment, and then he became dull again.
Just now, when the strange aura drilled into Fang Chen's mind and tried to control his soul, the Heavenly Bone King's heart suddenly beat rapidly.
Suddenly, the golden heart started beating rapidly. It sucked the strange aura into the golden heart. Fang Chen was not controlled at all.
However, the Heavenly Bone King did not seem to notice.
Fang Chen pretended to be controlled. Like the other three, his expression was dull and he did not move at all.
"Now, I'll send the four of you to the place where the inheritance of the Heavenly Bone King is located. Whoever can receive the inheritance of the Heavenly Bone King will be my number one general." The Heavenly Bone King shook his wrist, and the four of them disappeared into thin air.
Seeing this, Sage Calamity asked, "Master Heavenly Bone King, why don't you let me go?"
"You are not human. You can't receive the inheritance of the Heavenly Bone King." The Heavenly Bone King said in a deep voice.
When Fang Chen woke up, he realized that he had returned to the underground palace.
In front of him, the statue stood quietly.
However, the saber in the statue's hand had disappeared.
Fang Chen looked around and realized that this place had been sealed. There was no way to get out. Beside him, Star and Moon and the other two stood there in a daze.
At this moment, the hand of the statue emitted a gentle light.
In the next moment, an ancient voice came out from the statue.
"When you hear this voice, it means that you are qualified to receive the inheritance of the Heavenly Bone King."
"My inheritance is in my palm. Everyone, put your palms against mine. Whether you can receive the inheritance or not depends on your luck."
These were the last words of the Heavenly Bone King. As for his soul, it had already dissipated. It was impossible for him to be resurrected.
The first to try was Hei Tai. He placed his palm on the palm of the statue. Suddenly, the dazzling light became even more intense.
After a while, Hei Tai was stunned. He turned around and left. Not far away, he sat cross-legged and began to comprehend.
Next was Lin Lu. After him, it was Star and Moon's turn.
Just as Star and Moon was about to step forward, Fang Chen grabbed Star and Moon's small white hand.
Star and Moon's eyes were expressionless. They looked at Fang Chen coldly.
At this moment, Fang Chen was heartbroken.
"Yue 'er, I will definitely save you."
The reason why Fang Chen was not controlled by the Heavenly Bone King was because of the golden heart.
Fang Chen wanted to save Star and Moon. Naturally, he would find a way to break through from the golden heart.
Fang Chen held Star and Moon's hand and urged the golden heart.
Suddenly, a clear stream flowed out of the golden heart. It passed through Fang Chen's palm and entered Star and Moon's body.
Fang Chen found that after the clear stream circled Star and Moon's body for a while, it actually approached the mind.
"Can you get rid of the control?" Fang Chen was very nervous.
Hiss, hiss, hiss.
The clear stream entered Star and Moon's soul and began to absorb the layer of energy covering Star and Moon's soul.
As the layer of energy disappeared, Star and Moon's expression began to struggle. Seeing this, Fang Chen was very excited.
It seemed that the golden heart could restrain that layer of energy.
Three minutes later, the layer of energy covering Star and Moon's soul completely disappeared.
At this time, the clear stream spread to Star and Moon's limbs and bones.
Star and Moon suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Fang Chen in surprise.
"Brother Chen!"
Star and Moon was very surprised. Her memory stopped at the moment when she was controlled by the Heavenly Bone King. Why did she appear here now?
"Yue 'er, I helped you get rid of the control," Star and Moon said simply. However, she hid the most important part — the golden heart — and did not say anything.
"Brother Chen, won't the Heavenly Bone King know about this?" Star and Moon asked.
Fang Chen shook his head and said, "No, he won't."
"Right now, the Heavenly Bone King is invincible in the Heavenly Void Secret Land. We have nowhere to run," Star and Moon said.
"Maybe the Heavenly Void King's inheritance is an opportunity for us," Fang Chen said.
When the Heavenly Void King died back then, he should have known that the Heavenly Bone King would escape one day. He must have left a backup plan.
However, Fang Chen did not know what the backup plan was.
Maybe the breakthrough was in the Heavenly Void King's inheritance.
"Let's accept the Heavenly Void King's inheritance first," Fang Chen said.
The palace was sealed. It must have been designed by the Heavenly Void King back then to protect the warriors who accepted the inheritance.
They could accept the inheritance without worrying about the Heavenly Bone King coming in.
"They …"
Star and Moon turned to look at Hei Tai and Lin Lu and asked.
"After we accept the inheritance, I will remove the control for them," Fang Chen said.
In the Heavenly Void Secret Land, the four of them were considered the strongest warriors. If they did not unite, they would definitely not be able to escape from the Heavenly Bone King.
Star and Moon nodded. Then, she walked to the statue and pressed her small white hand on the statue's palm.
