The Rebirth of the Ancient Tomb: The Skull King

Chapter 3: The Purple-Golden Divine Stone



At this moment, Pang Ye was completely immersed in the cultivation of the Zuntian Gong and had no perception of the outside world. The vast spiritual energy contained in the purple and golden lights continuously nourished his skeleton body, making him almost lose himself in that boundless pleasure.

Xu Feng was bewitched and believed that as long as he shattered Pang Ye's skeleton body, he would be safe. The extreme fear in his heart triggered the latent power. He struck with all his strength, and this blow was even several times more powerful than his usual strength. The wind whistled, and the stone pillar rushed towards Pang Ye like lightning.

With a loud "bang", Pang Ye remained motionless. However, at the moment when the stone pillar hit his skeleton body, the purple and golden lights surrounding Pang Ye suddenly shook. The powerful counterattack force rebounded and directly hit Xu Feng's chest. Xu Feng let out a miserable scream, spat out a large amount of blood from his mouth, and his body flew out like a kite with a broken string.

"Plop", Xu Feng landed in the distance. His eyes were wide open, full of fear. His body twitched, and his face was first deathly pale, and then slowly turned gray, withered, and devoid of any vitality. Because the power of his blow was extremely strong, and the rebounding force of the vast spiritual energy contained in the purple and golden lights was even more powerful, Xu Feng's internal organs were directly shaken into powder. In an instant, Xu Feng was already dead, paying a heavy price for his reckless behavior.

Pang Ye was still diligently cultivating the Zuntian Gong and was completely unaware of Xu Feng's actions. He slowly circulated the Zuntian Gong method for thirty-six cycles. Then, Pang Ye woke up and felt that his skeleton body had become even stronger. He was overjoyed. If he continued to cultivate at this speed, his skeleton body would become incredibly powerful. As for the rebirth of flesh and blood, I'm afraid it could only be achieved by fully comprehending the Zuntian Gong. However, the Zuntian Gong is an unparalleled miraculous skill, and it is extremely difficult to fully comprehend it. However, Pang Ye didn't think that far for the time being. Now, he just wanted to become stronger and then go out to solve the mystery in his heart.

"Click...", Pang Ye slowly stood up. The purple and golden lights still lingered around him, but they were much dimmer than before. Presumably, it was because he had absorbed the spiritual energy contained in them. As for the origin of these purple and golden lights, Pang Ye didn't know either. However, he decided that he must find out. With such a vast amount of spiritual energy, there must be a precious treasure in this tomb. As for what the precious treasure was, Pang Ye had no idea, but he would definitely find it.

Looking sideways, Fang Ziyi was still unconscious, but her position had changed. Pang Ye was an extremely intelligent person. With a little thought, he understood the key. She must have woken up, but when she saw his skeleton body again, she was so frightened that she fainted again. He couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. Was he really that terrifying?

Lying in the distance was Xu Feng. Pang Ye felt something was wrong with his sensitivity. He went up to take a look and found that Xu Feng was dead. He was puzzled. Wasn't he fine? Why did he suddenly die? Hmm, his internal organs were all shattered? What was going on? Pang Ye could never have imagined that Xu Feng had tried to shatter his skeleton body and was killed by the rebounding force of the vast spiritual energy. He reaped what he sowed and deserved to die.

Although Pang Ye was a bit puzzled by Xu Feng's death, Xu Feng had nothing to do with him. If he was dead, then so be it. Now he only had one goal, which was to find the precious treasure that emitted the purple and golden lights. Just by the spiritual energy contained in the purple and golden lights, he could accelerate the progress of cultivating the Zuntian Gong. It could be imagined that if he used the body that emitted the purple and golden lights to cultivate, it would surely achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Pang Ye carefully examined the tomb but didn't find anything strange. But where did the purple and golden lights come from?

The tomb was very large. Pang Ye first walked around the four stone walls. Since the space was filled with purple and golden lights, the visibility was less than five meters. This round took quite a long time. And Fang Ziyi woke up again.

Hmm? Where was the skeleton? Where did it go?

As soon as Fang Ziyi woke up, she looked at the place where Pang Ye had been sitting at the beginning. She didn't see Pang Ye. Instead, she saw Xu Feng on the other side. Under the faint light emitted by the purple and golden lights, she saw that Xu Feng's body was in a mess, especially his mouth was dripping with blood. Immediately, a sense of foreboding welled up in her heart.

Fang Ziyi's body trembled slightly. She tried hard to stand up but was staggering. She gritted her teeth and walked to Xu Feng's side and squatted down. She stretched out her fair jade hand and tremblingly reached towards Xu Feng's nose. She wanted to confirm whether her guess was true.

No breath? Was Xu Feng dead? How did he die? The skeleton?

Fang Ziyi believed that it was the skeleton that killed Xu Feng because in this tomb, besides herself and Xu Feng, there was only that skeleton. And of course, she wouldn't kill Xu Feng, so the result was obvious.

With Xu Feng's death, Fang Ziyi became even more afraid. Thinking that she would be alone next, she couldn't help but cry softly. Her fragrant shoulders heaved up and down, looking pitiful and making people feel sad.

"Click..., click...", upon hearing that terrifying sound, Fang Ziyi stopped crying in a hurry. She raised her head and watched the terrifying skeleton approaching step by step. Somehow, perhaps because she had fainted twice already, when she saw the skeleton this time, although she was still scared, it wasn't as intense as before.

Remembering the death of her good friend Xu Feng, Fang Ziyi didn't know where she got the strength from. She suddenly stood up and shouted at Pang Ye, "Why did you kill him? Why?"

Pang Ye stopped in his tracks, and the "click" sound also stopped immediately. Purple and golden lights flashed in his eyes. Looking at the beautiful woman in front of him, Pang Ye really wanted to say that he didn't kill Xu Feng, but he couldn't make a sound.

Although Fang Ziyi hated Pang Ye to the core for killing Xu Feng, she wasn't so irrational as to seek revenge from Pang Ye. She turned around, grabbed Xu Feng's hand, and dragged him towards the stone door with great difficulty. She wanted to take Xu Feng away from here. But with her small strength, it was very difficult for her to drag Xu Feng, who weighed over a hundred catties. Pang Ye wanted to go up and help, but after thinking about it, he decided not to, so as not to scare this poor woman.

Watching Fang Ziyi dragging Xu Feng slowly approaching the stone door, Pang Ye ignored them and went to look for the treasure on his own.

Pang Ye had already checked the stone walls around him and found nothing strange. But the tomb space was very large, and for a while, Pang Ye didn't know where the treasure was hidden. In the past, with his extremely powerful divine sense detection, what could escape his notice? Unfortunately, now he couldn't even gather his divine sense and could only search slowly.

"Click..., click...", the sound of bones rubbing against each other echoed in the silent ancient tomb. Fang Ziyi's heart was pounding, and she was already sweating all over. She secretly wondered why she had so much courage to scold that skeleton just now.

After using all her strength, Fang Ziyi finally managed to drag Xu Feng to the stone door and started looking for the mechanism to open the stone door. But after searching nearby for a long time, Fang Ziyi still found nothing. Could it be that this ancient tomb could only be entered but not exited? At the thought of this, Fang Ziyi felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her heart, and it was completely chilled.

"Eh, what's that?" Fang Ziyi didn't find the mechanism but discovered a stone hidden under the stone door. It was a very strange stone. Wasn't it strange that a stone could emit light? And it was emitting purple and golden lights.

Pang Ye searched for a long time but still had no result. At this moment, he happened to approach the stone door and saw Fang Ziyi playing with a glowing stone. His heart tightened, and he immediately walked over.

"You, don't come over, don't come over." Fang Ziyi heard the harsh "click" sound and immediately knew that the skeleton was approaching her. She was afraid and shouted loudly.

Pang Ye wanted to say, "I won't hurt you," but unfortunately, he couldn't make a sound and could only approach step by step.

"Don't come over!" Fang Ziyi let out a loud cry and suddenly grabbed the glowing stone and threw it at Pang Ye, trying to stop his approach.

Pang Ye opened his finger bones and easily caught the stone that came whirling over with a "whooshing" sound of the airflow. He looked at it carefully and became even happier. This was a purple-golden stone. The purple and golden lights in the tomb were emitted by this stone. With Pang Ye's knowledge, he could be sure that this stone was a divine stone, containing rich spiritual energy. If used to cultivate the Zuntian Gong, it would definitely bring unexpected gains.

Seeing that the skeleton stopped approaching with that strange stone in hand, Fang Ziyi felt much calmer. If the skeleton continued to come over, Fang Ziyi really didn't know what to do.

Pang Ye was overjoyed to obtain the divine stone. Using the divine stone as a medium to cultivate the Zuntian Gong, he believed that in a short time, his skeleton body would become even stronger, and he could also get out of the ancient tomb one step earlier and find the answers in his heart.

Pang Ye walked back to his own pit on his own, sat cross-legged, his hands hung in front of his chest, his two palms pressed together, with the divine stone in the middle. He secretly circulated the Zuntian Gong and began to cultivate.

What was he doing? Fang Ziyi saw the strange behavior of the skeleton and secretly wondered. Since she couldn't find the exit for a while, Fang Ziyi had to come back and huddled in a corner, looking pitifully at that strange skeleton doing strange actions.

Hmm? It's glowing. The stone is glowing. The purple and golden lights lingering in the tomb started to rotate strangely again and quickly converged towards Pang Ye. So it was this skeleton that was causing the trouble. What on earth was he doing? Girls all have great curiosity, and Fang Ziyi was no exception. Now that she couldn't get out anyway, and the skeleton didn't seem to have the intention of harming her. Otherwise, she would have been dead long ago. Looking at the strange behavior of the skeleton, Fang Ziyi blinked her big eyes and watched.

"Ah", Fang Ziyi let out a soft cry. Before, only the stone was glowing, but now she saw that the skeleton was also glowing...
