Chapter 392: Fighting The Skeleton!
Ye Xiao was pulled into the ground by the skeleton. After diving for who knows how long, the skeleton finally stopped and released Ye Xiao. Ye Xiao used Spirit Devour Escape and retreated several dozen meters back. He looked at the skeleton vigilantly.
The skeleton also looked at him fiercely. It once again extended its palm and attacked Ye Xiao from a distance.
A huge palm imprint appeared in the air and instantly appeared in front of Ye Xiao. Ye Xiao had no choice but to dodge again. The huge palm imprint burst past Ye Xiao, injuring Ye Xiao"s shoulder.
"Roar!"
The skeleton roared loudly and pounced at Ye Xiao.
"Since there is no way to escape, let me test my new martial arts skills on you!" Ye Xiao said while looking at the coming skeleton.
He took out the Sea Dragon Spear and infused the spirit energy, causing the Sea Dragon Spear to light up.
"Sea Dragon Descends: First Style, Hands Of Waves!"
Immediately, the entire area turned into the sea and many dragon claws emerged out from it before attacking the skeleton.
Although this attack of Ye Xiao was unable to cause any damage to the skeleton, it still forced the skeleton to retreat back instead of advancing forward.
His attack was unable to cause any damage to the skeleton because the first style of the Sea Dragon Descends was only a Low-Grade Immortal Rank martial arts skill while the skeleton was an expert at the Immortal Emperor Realm.
Although the skeleton only has a trace of its will controlling it, it could still show the power of an Early Stage Immortal Emperor Realm expert. When it was alive, it had to be at least at the Late Stage of the Immortal Emperor Realm.
"Roar!"
The skeleton once again roared at Ye Xiao but this tike, it didn"t pounce at him instead, it kept staring at Ye Xiao.
This also gave Ye Xiao time to execute the martial arts technique he had created himself when he was about to break through to the Immortal Foundation Realm. At that time, he went into the state of enlightenment and comprehended two skills.
The first one was the Eye of Destruction and the second one was the Dragon Shattering The Heavens.
Dragon Shattering The Heavens had a total of three styles and each style was stronger than the other one.
Both skills that Ye Xiao comprehended were already High-Grade Immortal Rank martial arts skills and could grow with Ye Xiao"s increase in strength. But it was still not so easy. He had to comprehend and try to grow these two skills stronger.
Right now, for the very first time, Ye Xiao was about to execute one of these two skills. Just the thought of using the skill he created to fight against an Immortal Emperor Realm skeleton made Ye Xiao"s blood boil.
"Dragon Shattering The Heavens: First Style!"
Ye Xiao swung the Sea Dragon Spear and executed the first style of the Dragon Shattering The Heavens.
The Sea Dragon Spear shined with bright blue light as an incomparable radiance burst out from within it, causing the air around the Sea Dragon Spear to ripple. Along with this ripple in the air, a huge energy burst out from the Sea Dragon Spear, and along with a crackling sound, a wave of incomparably bright energy shot towards the skeleton.
The skeleton felt threatened and tried to dodge Ye Xiao"s attack but unfortunately, this attack was already locked onto the skeleton. No matter how hard it was to try, it would not be able to dodge this attack.
The wave of bright energy that shot forward immediately took the shape of a huge dragon that roared loudly and with its mouth wide open, it bites at the skeleton.
It was also at this moment that the skeleton waved its bony hand and formed a fist before punching at the dragon that was about to swallow it.
A huge fist was condensed in the air that also shot forward, directly colliding with the dragon.
"BOOM!"
When the two forces collided with each other, a loud explosive sound rang out as an overwhelming shockwave burst into every direction, destroying the surrounding walls and rocks, shattering them into pieces.
Ye Xiao panicked seeing this. He was currently deep underground and if the walls were to be destroyed and the roof was to fall, he will be buried alive here. So, the first thing he decided seeing the scene in front of him was to go out from this place.
"Wings Of The Divine Dragon!"
A beautiful pair of huge dragon wings grew out from Ye Xiao"s back. Without looking at the result of what happened after the collision of two powerful forces, Ye Xiao flapped his wings and flew up in the sky.
On the Upper Realm, not everyone can fly as they wish. If one wants to fly in the sky, they had to have the cultivation base at least at the Early Stage of the Immortal King Realm.
Ye Xiao"s cultivation base was only at the Early Stage of the Immortal Lord Realm so he was unable to fly. Hence, he sued the dragon wings to fly, and not long after, he successfully came out from underground.
It was also at this moment that the ground that was already in ruins once again crumbled. Cracks appeared which became bigger and bigger and very soon, the entire area once again fell deep underground, causing a deep pit to form.
Sighing, Ye Xiao looked at the scene in front of him for some time before choosing to leave this place. He didn"t believe after this crumbling of ground, the skeleton would still be alive but very soon, he was disappointed.
"Roar!"
Another beastly roar came out from who knows how many meters down the ground.
The ground shook for a while before the skeleton once again jumped up. But this time, it was really in very bad shape. One of its hands was nowhere to be seen and its chest bones also had cracks on them.
"Intruder, die!"
Seeing Ye Xiao who was hanging in the air, the skeleton roared loudly and jumped up in the air before clawing at Ye Xiao.
Five flashes of light that looked as if it just came out from a beast"s claw, strike at Ye Xiao fiercely with a burst of threatening aura.
Ye Xiao again flapped his wings and swiftly dodged the attack of the skeleton.
"Eyes of Destruction!"
Immediately after dodging the skeleton"s attack, Ye Xiao used the Eyes of Destruction, causing his eyes to turn red that shaded Ye Xiao"s face with a demonic look.
Two beams of incomparably destructive red light shot forward and without giving the skeleton a chance to dodge, they pierced into the skeleton"s head and continued to shot forward from its head"s back.
The destructive energy that shot out from Ye Xiao"s eyes was the same destructive energy that the Eye of Heavenly Dao used to attack Ye Xiao but was devoured by him. There was no energy in the entire Universe as destructive as this red energy because this red energy was the energy of the Heavens that solely belonged to it and no existence can use this energy.
It should be right to say that no existence even knows about this energy. The Heavens didn"t give them the right to know. Ye Xiao was just an exception.
First, it was the Heaven Devouring Divine Dragon that devoured this energy when the Eye of the Heavenly Dao attacked Ye Xiao for the first time. And from that moment onwards, Ye Xiao continued to devour this energy whenever he was attacked by the Eye of the Heavenly Dao.
Ye Xiao closed his eyes tightly as he felt his eyes itching very badly. He used both of his hands to rub his eyes compulsively. It was the first time he used this skill and he was not used to it, causing his eyes to begun itching.
On the other hand, the skeleton fell down on the ground. The corrupted will of the ruin"s owner dissipated the moment Ye Xiao"s attack pierced its head. The danger that Ye Xiao was scrambling with finally came to an end.
After some time, when the itching subsided, Ye Xiao opened his eyes and looked at the incomplete skeleton that was lying on the ground.
"Sigh!" Ye Xiao let out a long breath with a sigh. Then he buried the skeleton and left this place because he knew before long, many people will again come to this place.
And his guess was not wrong because just after two hours, people began to arrive here one after another. They were here to try out their luck and see if they could find any valuable thing.
As for the matter related to the skeleton, many people had already seen the skeleton falling underground with Ye Xiao with their own eyes. They believed that the skeleton will not come out from underground, after all, there was no path left to come out from the underground.
