Chapter 514 - Chapter 158: Bones

What Zhong Yuan naturally thought of was his somewhat eerie flames. If this horned snake were still alive, Zhong Yuan's flames would be of no use to it. But now that this horned snake has been dead for an unknown amount of time, it is not easy to divide these snake skins with flames?

Actually, at this moment, Zhong Yuan was somewhat skeptical. Perhaps it was because the horned snake was too difficult to deal with that the cultivators allowed it to be left here. However, after looking at the huge holes in the snake's body, Zhong Yuan gave up on this idea!

The golden flame has been unstoppable since Zhongyuan obtained it, and this time it is no exception. The rice sized flame released by Zhongyuan fell on the horned snake and only paused for two seconds before burning through its skin! Although the speed may seem a bit slow, it's still much better than holding a knife and gesturing for half a day without being able to cut!

In fact, Zhongyuan has always been clear that it is a golden flame, but it looks like it and has nothing to do with flames. For so long, Zhongyuan has never used it to ignite anything, even when running outside, cooking a meal, or making a fire, he can only use ordinary spiritual fire. And who has ever seen flames burn plants better and better?

Fortunately, these are all insignificant things for now, as long as we can burn this snake skin!

Zhongyuan's golden flames are powerful, and the quality of the snake skin of the horned snake is not bad. The flames burning on top give Zhongyuan the feeling of cutting a rigid plate with oxygen welding, which is slow. Fortunately, Zhongyuan still has the ability to multitask, releasing several flames in different parts to start cutting at the same time!

It doesn't seem like a very complicated thing, but when it comes to actually doing it, it's not like that. It just took Zhong Yuan half an hour to cut a line from beginning to end on the horned snake, and the thought of cutting the snake skin into small pieces later left Zhong Yuan speechless!

But it must be cut, even if it's not completely cut, at least half of it needs to be divided to complete it, otherwise where will those snake skins that Zhongyuan wants to embezzle come from?

Retracting the flames, Zhong Yuan used his psychic power to pull up from the cut part of the snake's head. Immediately, countless dust particles kept flying around with the sound of "sizzling". The real dust was actually nothing at all. What Zhong Yuan saw were the decaying and dry muscles inside the horned snake!

It's okay that no one moves this horned snake normally, but now when Zhong Yuan pulls so hard, the decayed muscles on the horned snake's body fall off in pieces. Zhong Yuan just used his psychic power to lightly tap two on the snake bones, and the muscles on the horned snake's body immediately fall off, revealing pieces of jade like white bones!

Seeing those bones, Zhongyuan's eyes immediately became straight. If he hadn't personally tried the toughness of the snake skin with a Tang knife, Zhongyuan would have doubted whether it was a work of art made of jade. The bone piercing bones, each about one meter long, were completely colorless except for a moist patch.

You don't even need to think about those snake bones, which are definitely rare and valuable things. However, tidying them up is definitely more troublesome than those snake skins. What's most regrettable about Zhongyuan is that he doesn't know how to refine magic tools. Otherwise, he would directly refine these snake bones into a snake bone whip that can be big or small. Even if he doesn't know how to hold it, it would still be cool!

Although he was fantasizing in his mind, Zhongyuan's psychic power did not stop. Even the part that was coiled by the horned snake was forcibly pulled out by Zhongyuan's psychic power. With the tenacity of this horned snake skin, Zhongyuan was not afraid of breaking it!

I don't know if it was because Zhong Yuan peeled off the snake skin, which broke the balance of the snake body. Zhong Yuan, who was focused on peeling the snake skin, suddenly saw a giant snake rushing towards him. He was so scared that Zhong Yuan's face turned white and he didn't peel the snake skin anymore. He flew up and was about to fly out of the passage.

Boom! 'A muffled sound came out, and Zhong Yuan, who had just flown more than ten meters away, also stopped. Only then did he realize that the giant snake had been knocked down by himself, and he couldn't blame Zhong Yuan for being so timid. Even dead people like Golden Armor could be resurrected this year. It's normal for such a powerful horned snake to have some strange abilities!

Looking at the dust all over the sky, Zhongyuan didn't rush over. On the contrary, he passed back a lot. However, the sound of "sizzling" snake skins kept coming from the teleportation array. At this moment, Zhongyuan's time was very tight. If it weren't for the benefits of the giant snake, Zhongyuan would have jumped onto the teleportation array and dodged people long ago!

One minute later, a huge snake skin with a width of over 7 meters and a length of nearly 50 meters was completely peeled off by Zhongyuan, except for the occasional holes that appeared on the snake skin, which looked a bit unsightly. However, compared to such a large snake skin, it was nothing more!

Putting aside the snake skins for now, Zhong Yuan didn't rush to decompose them. Instead, he released flames that would fly onto the snake bones, melting all the rotten and dry muscles covering them in the flames to prevent dust from flying around again later!

What Zhong Yuan didn't expect was that there were mistakes. Zhong Yuan's action was unintentional, but after refining those decayed bones and flesh, a fist sized blood red liquid was left on top of the snake bones. The faint energy fluctuations told Zhong Yuan that the thing that was somehow refined must also have unknown uses!

Now Zhong Yuan was even more concerned about those things, throwing everything he could scan with his psychic power, whether it was dust or decaying muscles, into the flames! After the fist sized blood red liquid mass swelled up, the muscles around the giant snake had already been cleaned clean by Zhongyuan!

Although I don't know the function of that liquid, Zhong Yuan still divided it into more than ten round beads and casually put them into the Buddha beads. I don't know if it will be of great use in the future!

After putting away those beads, Zhongyuan's psychic power reached into the skeleton of the horned snake again. In just a blink of an eye, more than ten basin sized black and red objects were brought back by Zhongyuan's psychic power. After just a little thought, Zhongyuan guessed that these blood red, irregular lumps must have been formed by the coagulation of the horned snake's blood. If it were held by other creatures, it wouldn't be very useful, but this one doesn't take up much space anyway. Whether it's useful or not, it's just casually put away!

After finishing these pieces, Zhong Yuan walked up to the snake skeleton and reached into it to pull out a huge snake bone.

This is the only broken snake bone in the entire snake skeleton, although some scars can also be seen on other bones, they are still connected to the skeleton as a whole! The snake bone was thick with two fingers and wide with a length of over one meter. It floated lightly in the hand, making even Zhong Yuan doubt his judgment!

However, after taking out his Tang sword and cutting at the broken bone, Zhong Yuan put away his doubts. Although it was a bone, its texture had already changed, and it was completely incomparable to ordinary animal bones!

After thinking for a moment, Zhong Yuan decided to release flames and put the bone on top to try it out. Tang Dao obviously couldn't keep up with the times anymore. Heaven knows if there is any danger in the future. The quality of this bone is much better than that Tang Dao at first glance. If it needs to be refined with flames again, its strength will definitely be incomparable. Even if it can cut through those snake skins, it's possible!

In just over a minute, Zhongyuan had increased his energy output four or five times. Originally, the golden flames looked like a small sun, staining the entire cave with gold. However, the bone still didn't change at all. In order to prevent something like the last time he refined meteorites in the spiritual realm, Zhongyuan kept tapping the bone with his psychic power, but the sound of 'bang bang' was telling Zhongyuan that the bone had not changed at all!

Although his head was already a bit dizzy, Zhong Yuan still increased his energy output with a fierce attack. If this didn't work out again, Zhong Yuan would have no choice!

Another minute had passed, and just as Zhongyuan was about to give up, a small bone spur at the fracture suddenly turned into bone fluid and shrank onto the bone. If Zhongyuan hadn't been paying attention with his psychic powers, he might have missed it!

Zhong Yuan was afraid that there would be no reaction at all. As long as there was an effect, things would be much easier to handle. After struggling with headaches for a while, Zhong Yuan changed his hands and squeezed a spell to increase his mental power. With the help of this spell, after just over ten seconds, the snake bone that had not changed began to slowly soften!

I don't know if it's because Zhongyuan's flame power is too weak, or if the amount of bone made is really good. Although Zhongyuan has tried his best, the trend of the bone fluid shrinking is very limited. After persisting in refining for nearly two minutes, the bone fluid has only shrunk by less than one-third!

Originally, Zhongyuan planned to continue making a Tang knife, but seeing that there was a lot of bone fluid, he decided to divide it into several parts. In the blink of an eye, a snow-white and moist Tang knife, a jade dagger, and something like a crescent moon appeared in front of Zhongyuan!

I didn't have time to slowly appreciate my own masterpiece. One after another, runes were continuously punched into three things by Zhongyuan. For almost a minute, everything Zhongyuan thought was useful, such as toughness, sharpness, and gathering spirit, was painted once! Unfortunately, that's all Zhongyuan knows. The legendary artifact making techniques have nothing to do with Zhongyuan. He found a jade slip with artifact making techniques recorded in the Earth teleportation array channel. However, all the things inside are aimed at some spiritual bodies and are of little use to Zhongyuan. Therefore, it is destined that the things Zhongyuan makes, no matter how beautiful, will only have nothing to do with magical artifacts and the like!

Tang Dao, needless to say, is used to replace the one I used before. Daggers are also good for cutting fruits and the like. Anyway, there is already a lot of bone fluid, so I took this opportunity to refine it.

That thing, which looked like a crescent moon, was created by Zhongyuan at the last minute, and the edge position was deliberately opened by Zhongyuan's psychic power. If the quality is really as good as Zhongyuan imagined, combined with Zhongyuan's psychic power, it can be considered a weapon that cannot be borrowed! Although Zhongyuan has practiced some martial arts, if you want him to fight with creatures like the horned snake with knives and guns, it's better to let Zhongyuan die directly!

Close range not allowed, psychic attack? This clock is capable and not weak, but it is only useful for people with weaker spiritual strength than oneself. Relying solely on a few attack marks is not reliable, even picking some spirit stones to blow up stones. Zhong Yuan really doesn't have much confidence in those marks!
