Chapter 419: 419




“Long Chen, I need to see you!”

This person was just a regular Favored . Rushing up the mountain, his voice was filled with urgency .

“Don’t move, Guo Ran . I know him . ” Guo Ran’s crossbow was already aimed at that person when he heard Long Chen’s voice .

While refining, Long Chen had also been paying attention to what was happening outside . Perhaps only Long Chen had ability to refine pills this way .

When he heard that person’s voice, he realized he recognized him as the person he had saved on the outer region of the Misty Mountain Valleys .

That person had called himself Xu yang, and as thanks for saving his life, he had offered up his only treasure, a wind spirit stone . However, Long Chen had declined .

This person was a Favored, and possessed wind attribute spiritual qi . Now that he was in the Bone Forging realm, his speed was shocking, and he reached the mountaintop in just a moment .

As soon as Long Chen walked out of his tent, Xu Yang recognized him and urgently said, “Senior apprentice-brother Long Chen, a group of your friends is surrounded and being attacked! They need your help!”

Long Chen was startled, hastily asking, “What’s the situation?”

Panting for breath, Xu Yang reported, “In a canyon two hundred and seventy-five miles from here, there were many people besieging a group of people . One of them was a woman who was exceptionally powerful . With a wave of her hand, ice pillars soared into the sky .

“There were four men as well that were fighting alongside her . But they have too many enemies, and when I saw that them, they were being forced to retreat over and over .

“After I asked around, I found out they were disciples from the same monastery as you . They were coming over to join you here, but somehow, they were noticed by others on the way and hunted down .

“The people attacking them are mostly from your Xuantian Supermonastery . There are three Chosen amongst them, and by myself, I couldn’t save them . I could only rush over here as fast as possible to tell you . ” At this time, Xu Yang was drenched in sweat, practically on the brink of collapse . It was obvious that he had pushed his speed to his limit .



“These idiots!” Long Chen clenched his teeth furiously . These bastards were too hateful, to even target other disciples just because they came from the same monastery .

After hesitating for a moment, Long Chen decided to enter the other tent and awake Chu Yao . He needed to borrow the Violet Phoenix Sparrow’s speed .

Although this would delay Chu Yao’s bone tempering, saving lives was more urgent . With Chu Yao present, she would be able to instantly heal anyone injured .

“Many thanks . You two protect this place . Chu Yao and I are going to go help them . ” Long Chen thanked Xu Yang, as well as giving a warning to Gu Yang and Guo Ran .

“Boss, do you…?” Guo Ran clearly felt hesitant . Then did Long Chen really think this person was trustworthy? Could he just be luring him away?


“Don’t worry, it’ll be fine . If they dare to try and take advantage of me leaving, just have free rein to kill them all . Kill anyone that dares come up,” said Long Chen . He didn’t directly say whether or not Xu Yang was trustworthy, but his attitude already said everything .

If they really couldn’t hold out, then the worst-case scenario was that they would have to wake up Meng Qi and the others . The only problem was that when tempering bones, you usually had to temper each bone in one go . If you stopped midway, the medicinal energy would dissipate from the bone, so you would have to redo that bone, wasting your previous effort .

Tempering the first bone was the simplest and fastest . By this point, they had already reached the second bone . So now that he had awakened Chu Yao, she would have to redo her second bone tempering .

That was equivalent to wasting a few Bone Tempering Pills as well as some time . That loss was something that was recoverable .

Chu Yao called out her Violet Phoenix Sparrow, and the two of them got on its back . With a loud cry, the Violet Phoenix Sparrow soared into the clouds, disappearing from their gazes in an instant .

“Long Chen has left the mountain . ” Those hidden people below the mountain were startled .

“He probably had something urgent to do . Hehe, now that he’s left, there’s only some weaklings . After a bit, let’s all go up and kill them . Then those treasures lady Yin promised will be ours . ”



“Not only will we slow down Long Chen’s cultivation, we’ll have also killed all his friends . This way, Long Chen will definitely go crazy . Hehe, it seems our rewards will increase even more . ”

“Kill these troublemakers! Each one of these people have taken the side of evil . None of them are good people, so just kill them all!”

As soon as Long Chen left, those hidden experts all jumped out . It was unknown just what promises Yin Wushuang had given them, but they now came for the tents, their killing intent surging out .

There were over sixty Bone Forging experts who came up . Amongst them were even two Chosen .

This was Xu Yang’s first time seeing such a scene, and he turned pale with fright . The sword in his hand quivered slightly .

In front of that many experts, they only had three people, while he was just an ordinary Favored . Other that specializing in speed, his combat ability was just average . But even in the face of this many experts, he didn’t flee . That was enough to prove his courage .

“Brother, you don’t have to do anything . Gu Yang and I are enough . But if we aren’t, just enter that tent and call out the ones inside . Don’t worry, there definitely won’t be any danger . ” Guo Ran patted Xu Yang on the shoulder .

Although Meng Qi and the others were in a meditative state, they weren’t actually cultivating . As long as there was a threat to their life, they would immediately sense it and come out of that state . The only damage would be that they would have to retemper the bone they were on . However, Guo Ran didn’t want to alarm them just yet .

“I’ll be first line of defence, and Gu Yang, you’ll be second . If the two of us are defeated, Xu Yang, you awaken them . ” Guo Ran was still calm and unhurried . After speaking, he didn’t even have to look . Pointing his crossbow in their general direction, he shot an arrow at those people that were charging up .

BOOM! The arrow exploded amongst them, and several people screamed miserably, blood and flesh flying through the air .

“Everyone scatter! At this distance, he can send out at most two more arrows . Once we reach him, we’ll crush him!” ordered the Chosen .

A distance of five miles could be crossed in just a couple breaths’ time . Guo Ran couldn’t shoot many arrows in this time, and as long as everyone scattered, his arrows wouldn’t be able to kill many of them . It would just depend on who was unlucky .

As soon as that Chosen said that, a fiery arrow appeared in front of him, its speed incomparably quick .

With an icy snort, the Chosen took out a huge golden shield covered with shining runes . From the powerful pressure coming from it, it was definitely an extremely sturdy shield .

BOOM! The Chosen’s arm turned numb, and his shield almost flew out of his hand, but he still managed to block Guo Ran’s arrow .

“Haha, die!”

At this point, people were just a couple hundred meters from Guo Ran . At this distance, there was no way they would allow Guo Ran to fire anymore arrows from his Voidbreaking Crossbow .

That Chosen was the first to charge up . At the same time, he activated a photographic jade, using it record the image of him heroically killing a villain . This would be his proof to get his reward .

A broadsword suddenly appeared in that Chosen’s hand, and he slashed it down .

Sparks flew as that Chosen’s broadsword was caught by a metallic arm .

“What?!”

Everyone was stunned . Guo Ran had instantly turned into a metal monster, his whole body covered in a strange armor .

The most bizarre part of this image was the mask Guo Ran had put on . The mask was of a fiend with two shining horns, appearing incredibly fierce .

This bizarre armor stunned everyone . They had never seen anything so strange . Furthermore, the speed at which Guo Ran had donned that armor was just too quick . In just the blink of an eye, he had turned into a different person .

“You should die instead!” With one hand holding the Chosen’s sword, the other formed a metallic fist that whistled towards the Chosen’s chest .

The Chosen had yet to recover from his shock . By the time he reacted, Guo Ran’s fist had already reached his chest, and he couldn’t dodge . The only thing he could do was focus all his spiritual qi onto his chest, forming a translucent barrier .

This defence was something that could only be formed once spiritual qi was compressed to the pinnacle . It was something only Bone Forging experts were capable of with their dense spiritual qi .

Such a spiritual qi defense had an extremely great effect on spiritual qi attacks . Other people’s fists would lose at least thirty percent of their power when striking this barrier .

BOOM!

Bones cracked as that Chosen vomited blood . He was sent flying back .

“Tch, what Chosen? Just trash . ”

A metallic voice rang out from Guo Ran’s armor . That voice was full of disdain .

That kind of spiritual qi defense might be effective against others, but it was useless against Guo Ran . His attack didn’t contain any spiritual qi; it was created entirely from the armor’s power .

This armor was something he had created from the material Long Chen had gained within the ancient tomb . Although such things were all low grade in that era, their hardness was comparable to Xiantian material . It could be said that this armor was something that contained all of Guo Ran’s heart and blood .

This was also why he had been holding back from advancing to Bone Forging . He wanted to use his invention to prove his own strength to himself .

He knew that in terms of cultivation, he had no talent . His goal was to become a crafting god, so he had complete confidence in his inventions .

With a single fist, he had heavily injured a Chosen . Seeing him coughing up blood as he flew back, everyone was horrified .

“Too useless! Just die!”

That metallic voice once more rang out . Raising a hand, Guo Ran suddenly clenched a hand .

Countless black lights shot out, instantly enveloping the Chosen that was still midair .
