Bone Changer: Dragon Supreme - C31
Hearing this, the wild Mo Xuanwu’s eyes dimmed: “Even if my legs are broken, this small Raging Blade Sect still can’t lock me down. It’s not that I can’t get out, it’s that I don’t want to get out. ”
Recalling the events from the past, Mo Xuanwu’s expression darkened as his eyes sunk into a deep mist.
Jiang Shuo looked at him quietly. Since Mo Xuanwu wasn’t willing to explain the reason, he didn’t ask further, “Senior Mo, how should I get out?”
More than once since he had fallen into the water prison, he had searched for a way out. There were only two exits to the water prison. One was the stone door he fell through, while the other was the window above his head. The window was very far away, and it was impossible to reach it with just a leap. The top of the water prison was a semicircle, and there was no place to climb to. It was impossible to leave from there. The only hope was the stone door. The stone door was inlaid on one side of the wall, but it was one with the stone wall. The surface was very smooth. Even if he climbed along the chain and jumped onto the iron ring directly above him, there was no place for him to land. As a result, he could only fall straight into the water.
“Every day at 7: 00 AM, at noon, at 10: 00 PM, there will be disciples of the Raging Blade Sect who will bring me food. At that time, I will naturally be able to help you get out.” Mo Xuanwu said.
The water prison was dark, and Jiang Shuo had no idea how much time had passed. He saw that Mo Xuanwu had a lot of leftovers that he had never seen before, and guessed that the Berserker Blade Sect disciple must have delivered food while he was unconscious: “Senior Mo, how many days have I been here?”
“Seven days.” Mo Xuanwu replied.
“What?” Jiang Shuo was shocked, he only had about one day of memories. Although he had fainted twice, he had not expected that he had fainted for such a long time.
When he thought about how the situation in the outside world had developed after he had been missing for seven days, Jiang Shuo could not help but be worried.
“Remember, once you leave this place, you are not allowed to mention my name to anyone. Also, you are not allowed to reveal information about your father, Crimson Cloud Stronghold, or Nine Furnace Mountain. As they were about to separate, Mo Xuanwu instructed one by one.
After personally experiencing the sacred art of meridian devouring, Jiang Shuo naturally could imagine what kind of dangers Mo Xuanwu, with his unique skill, had experienced during his travels in the martial arts world. Mo Xuanwu had provoked many enemies, and he was probably worried that he would be implicated.
Jiang Shuo lowered his head to look at the glimmering Hundred Lives Bone, and asked curiously, “When I was in the Crimson Cloud Village, I had never seen this Hundred Lives Bone glow, but not long after I came out, it shone three times. What is going on?”
Just a casual question caused Mo Xuanwu to frown. He hurriedly asked, “Three times?”
Jiang Shuo informed him that when he met Zhu Ming in Yulin City, Jiang Shuo could only guess that he was a big shot of the imperial court, but he couldn’t confirm his identity.
Mo Xuanwu’s expression was normal with regards to the Scarlet Cloud Stronghold’s vicious beast guardian as well as himself. He was only slightly surprised when he heard about his encounter with Zhu Ming.
Mo Xuanwu immediately inquired about the situation before smiling faintly, “What a coincidence. To think that you would meet him the moment you appeared.”
Hearing Mo Xuanwu’s tone, as if he knew who Zhu Ming was, Jiang Shuo hurriedly asked, “Senior Mo, why is it that when I see him, the Life Bones shine?”
“This …” Mo Xuanwu’s expression returned to normal, but he avoided speaking about it. He said, “You just need to remember that in the future, as long as the Hundred Lives Bone shines, you can escape.”
“Hmm?” Jiang Shuo was even more unable to understand. If it was said that those with the light of the Life Bones wanted to harm him, then Zhu Ming and Mo Xuanwu would not do such a thing.
He wanted to ask more, but Mo Xuanwu waved his hand, interrupting him, “When you leave, a fierce battle will be waiting for you. You should hurry up and familiarize yourself with the Swallowing Vein Divine Art. Also, remind yourself that not only is it someone else’s internal energy, even your own internal energy may conflict with the Swallowing Pulse God Art. In the future, you must be extremely careful when you learn martial arts. However, the good news is that your Sealing Ancient Art is not affected at all. ”
“…” Jiang Shuo was stunned, speechless.
It was fortunate that Mo Xuanwu had confidently declared that he would be able to absorb all the benefits without a single hitch, but in the end, there was still such a large limit.
Warriors could usually learn many inner force cultivation methods. Although there were some conflicts between them, the most they could do was affect the power of the technique. They would never be like the Pulse Swallowing Divine Art and devour the body.
Mo Xuanwu’s one sentence basically referred to Jiang Shuo. In order to be safe, he could only learn one kind of internal energy technique. He also had to rely on luck and not engage in a battle with the Swallowing Pulse God Art.
If it wasn’t for the fact that he was worried about his successor, Mo Xuanwu wouldn’t even tell him that he had learned a bunch of inner force cultivation techniques and died early on.
“Then… Um, Senior Mo, didn’t you get tricked by someone back then and learned the Meridian Swallowing Divine Art? ” Jiang Shuo asked bitterly.
“That’s not true. I learned it on my own accord. I even destroyed my own internal energy in order to learn the Meridian Devouring Divine Art.” Ignoring the hatred in Jiang Shuo’s voice, as if he admired the courage of his youth, Mo Xuanwu said to himself, “This was all thanks to your father, otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to learn the Swallowing Pulse God Art.”
“My father?” Jiang Shuo’s eyes narrowed. “Does this have anything to do with my father?”
“Of course …” As Mo Xuanwu spoke, he suddenly thought of something and waved his hand, “This is all a matter of the past. Why are you mentioning it?”
Jiang Shuo’s eyes sparkled. Ever since he was born, this was the first time he came in contact with his father’s past.
A trace of sadness appeared in his heart as he pleaded, “Senior Mo, can you tell me about my father?”
Seeing Jiang Shuo’s expression, Mo Xuanwu was slightly moved, and inwardly sighed that Jiang Shuo was still just a child.
“Your father is someone who doesn’t know his place. Back then, he …” Mo Xuanwu had just spoken two sentences when ‘hualala’ sounds rang out. The window above his head was opened, and a ray of sunlight shone in.
Jiang Shuo looked up and saw a hand holding food, ready to throw it down.
While Jiang Shuo was guessing how Mo Xuanwu would use this opportunity to escape, the opponent suddenly moved.
Mo Xuanwu’s eyes gleamed. With a flip of his palm, the two chicken bones in his hands were revealed. His wrist trembled, and the chicken bones followed one after the other. They fiercely shot up, and as they collided with the air, a sharp swish sound was emitted.
The first chicken bone went through the window accurately. With a “pu” sound, blood splashed out and the chicken bone penetrated the palm that was only half revealed.
Ah!
The Raging Blade Sect disciple let out a mournful scream, instinctively grabbing his palm and bending down. Just as he revealed his head, the second chicken bone immediately arrived and pierced into the other party’s eyes, as if it was tearing through rotten weeds, directly piercing through the hard skull, and blossoming into a bunch of red flowers behind his head.
“So powerful!” Mo Xuanwu’s first move was earth-shattering, and it left Jiang Shuo dumbstruck.
The chicken bone was fragile and easy to break. In Mo Xuanwu’s hands, it was comparable to a feather arrow. Ling Li was very good, the gap between the two chicken bones was perfectly grasped, and this precise calculation made it harder for Jiang Shuo to catch up.
Jiang Shuo only knew that Mo Xuanwu was strong, but he had never expected him to be this strong.
The disciple’s corpse fell with its head down, falling out of the window. With a “peng” sound, it landed on the top of the iron cage, and Jiang Shuo’s feet shook.
Mo Xuanwu harrumphed coldly. He slammed his palm against the metal bars, and a corpse fell from the narrow gap.
Mo Xuanwu seized the corpse and held it in his arms. His eyes glowed with a crimson light. Ignoring the presence of Jiang Shuo, he buried his head in Jiang Shuo’s neck and opened his mouth to bite.
His Adam’s apple moved up and down, crazily sucking the blood of his opponent. His corpse turned white as if it was covered with a thin layer of white paper.
Jiang Shuo looked at all of this in a daze, the Barbarian Saber Sect disciple’s screams still resounding in his ears. He suddenly recalled the battle between him and Chen Xian, and the screams coming from the direction of the forbidden area, it was most likely caused by the same situation.
In addition to the human bones found in the water prison, Mo Xuanwu’s bloodthirsty appearance and the fact that the Raging Blade Sect disciples were being unusually cautious when delivering food, Mo Xuanwu probably did this more than once.
As for whether he was drinking human blood to heal or practice, Jiang Shuo had no idea.
Moments later, the corpse rapidly shriveled as the blood-red in Mo Xuanwu’s eyes gradually faded. Finally, he let go of the corpse and casually threw it in front of him. He didn’t even bother to wipe away the blood at the corner of his mouth.
Jiang Shuo hesitated for a moment, walked forward and asked, “Senior Mo, you said that you can escape once the Raging Blade Sect comes to deliver their food, now …”
Mo Xuanwu looked at Jiang Shuo; he knew that Jiang Shuo was very anxious, so he raised his hands and pressed them to the ground.
Borrowing the strength from the rebound, his body leaped straight up, dragging large areas of chains behind him.
Mo Xuanwu had been sitting at his original position, but now that he had jumped, Jiang Shuo could see his situation clearly. Mo Xuanwu’s arms, wrists, hips, and more than ten other parts of his body were firmly locked by iron chains. On the other side was a dead ring attached to the iron cage. It seemed like he had no intention of letting Mo Xuanwu out. With such a heavy burden on his body, even if he was under pressure, it would still be enough to crush him. But Mo Xuanwu had lived in this state for several years, which made Jiang Shuo even more emotional.
The purpose of the chains was to bind Mo Xuanwu and prevent him from escaping from the cage. Mo Xuanwu took aim at the gap in the steel cage before jumping out. Before he even made it halfway, the iron chains had already been pulled straight out, causing the air to vibrate incessantly.
“Haah!” Mo Xuanwu roared, and his hair immediately stood on end as his entire body exuded a surging aura. The upward momentum that was about to break was suddenly increased. With a loud ‘thump’, ‘thump’, those chains were broken one after another. In the next moment, Mo Xuanwu’s body flew out of the hole and landed on the top of the cage.
Without any hesitation, Mo Xuanwu lowered his head and used the iron chain on his wrist to wrap around the corpse and threw it into the air. The corpse fell from the top of Mo Xuanwu’s head. When it landed in front of him, Mo Xuanwu used both of his palms to slap the corpse. The corpse was like a sandbag that was ruthlessly sent flying. It tore through the air and accurately smashed into the stone door on the wall.
“Crack!” A muffled sound rang out. Although the corpse’s body was unable to break open the stone door, it was able to cave in successfully. A space of half a foot appeared on the originally flat wall.
Mo Xuanwu exhaled a mouthful of impure air before slowly descending it. He sat back down in the center of the cage and said, “Alright, you can leave now.”
