Chapter 1958: Chapter 1958
The guards led them all the way deep into the castle, and finally, they reached a large palace.
A leader went inside to make a report first, and then, they led them into the palace.
Upon entering the palace, Su Yang saw three crystal clear skeletons sitting high above in the hall from afar.
The five skeletons who brought Su Yang in, immediately knelt down on the ground, nodding and bowing as if in front of the Ghost Fire Trio.
Su Yang did not kneel; he was scrutinizing these three skeletons.
These three skeletons were indeed very different from the other skeletons.
The bones of these three skeletons were completely transparent, and Su Yang could even see liquid flowing inside them, which was due to the condensed yin energy.
Su Yang couldn't discern what the strength of these three skeletons was, but one thing was certain: these three skeletons were not of the Land Immortal Realm, because they didn't have that aura.
However, although they were not Land Immortals, Su Yang couldn't gauge their strength, which was shocking enough.
Without a doubt, the strength of these three skeletons wouldn't be any less compared to Su Yang.
Su Yang had long guessed that the Great City Lord's power was not weak, but he didn't expect that there would be two skeletons by his side. Moreover, the strength of these skeletons was so powerful; it was truly remarkable.
After the five skeletons explained for a while, the three crystal skeletons seemed uninterested.
Eventually, after the five skeletons spoke for a while, it was Su Yang's turn.
Su Yang was straightforward, taking out three black pills and handing them over.
The three crystal skeletons took the black pills and ate them directly as if they were candies, without looking at them.
It must be said, this is true boldness born of skill. With enough strength, there's no need to worry about any issues with the pills.
Afterward, the three crystal skeletons didn't show any reaction, just sitting as if the pills had absolutely no effect on them.
The five skeletons were hopeful, watching them, hoping to see their joy and receive a reward.
Unexpectedly, the Great City Lord and the other two showed no reaction, which made the five skeletons somewhat flustered.
Su Yang was also dumbfounded because he didn't see the yin energy nourishing the three crystal skeletons. What was going on?
After carefully inspecting these three crystal skeletons, Su Yang confirmed that there was no issue with his pills; the problem lay with these three crystal skeletons.
These three crystal skeletons had cultivated to this extent and could be said to be at their peak.
However, because they were skeletons, revived by yin energy, the notion of advancing to the Land Immortal Realm inherently contradicted the natural order. Hence, they saw no hope of advancement and stayed at this level.
Lingering for so long, they continuously absorbed yin energy to enhance themselves. However, at their level, using yin energy had little effect.
The abundant yin energy at most tempered their bones, turning them into such a crystalline state. At this stage, even their bones couldn't absorb yin energy anymore.
Precisely because of this, the yin energy in the pills couldn't be absorbed, rendering the pills ineffective for them.
After finishing the pills without feeling any effect, the three crystal skeletons seemed somewhat irritable, as if they were being toyed with.
One of the crystal skeletons waved its hand, seeming to gesture for someone to deal with Su Yang.
The nearby guards came over immediately, while the five skeletons retreated hastily to the side, not daring to speak a word for Su Yang.
Seeing the situation, Su Yang quickly stepped forward and, before the guards could act, took out a bottle of Elixir Pills from his person.
"Try this!" Su Yang tossed the Elixir Pills over directly.
The crystal skeleton caught the porcelain bottle, glanced at Su Yang, took one out, and popped it into its mouth.
A moment later, the body of this crystal skeleton began to change, with the liquid within its bones flowing rapidly as if driven by some force.
The other two crystal skeletons were equally surprised and immediately took the bottle, each of them consuming one. Before long, the same change occurred in these two crystal skeletons.
After a while, the three crystal skeletons finally stopped, and the leading crystal skeleton waved for the guards to withdraw.
Su Yang breathed a sigh of relief; in actuality, what he gave the three crystal skeletons was an ordinary Qi Blood Pill.
This is a type of Elixir Pill that can replenish human blood vitality, very common in the Human World. Even some small sects can craft it.
For humans, this Qi Blood Pill is quite ordinary.
However, on these three crystal skeletons, it had quite a surprising effect.
These three crystal skeletons had reached the utmost limit of their cultivation; yin energy could no longer enhance them.
To advance further, they could only mend their physical bodies to enhance themselves.
But here, everywhere was filled with yin energy, making it impossible to mend their bodies, as there was no spiritual energy whatsoever.
Su Yang gave them the Qi Blood Pill, which allowed them to sense the vitality of blood, which they lacked and longed for.
Therefore, after consuming the Qi Blood Pill, the gazes the three crystal skeletons cast toward Su Yang changed immediately, all filled with excitement.
With a wave of their hands, they dismissed the five skeletons and the guards, leaving the three crystal skeletons standing around Su Yang.
Su Yang was not afraid in the slightest, looking calmly at these three crystal skeletons.
Upon closer examination, Su Yang discovered there were strange runes on the bones of these three crystal skeletons. These runes seemed deliberately carved, but who carved them?
Moreover, Su Yang found that the bone strength of the three crystal skeletons was incredibly high. Based on what Su Yang observed, the strength of these bones surpassed any Magic Artifact he had seen.
It could be said that these three skeletons themselves were powerful killing weapons. Their bone strength was such that few could break through by mere attack!
Such three skeletons possessed formidable combat capabilities, no wonder they could dominate this city.
Su Yang pondered to himself, these three skeletons truly were formidable.
The three skeletons were even more overjoyed; after lingering in their current realm for what seemed like eternity, they finally saw hope for further advancement. Naturally, they didn't want to miss out.
"Do you have more of these Elixir Pills?" one of the skeletons inquired.
"Yes!" Su Yang nodded calmly.
"Give them to us!" the three skeletons said excitedly.
"I can," Su Yang hesitated a moment, "but you'll need to give me something in return."
"Whatever you want, just say it," the three skeletons said readily, as for them, the Qi Blood Pills Su Yang possessed were the key.
"A Space Artifact." Su Yang described it.
The three skeletons looked at each other, bewildered, clearly not understanding what it was Su Yang was requesting.
