Chapter 3791: Fierce Battle with the Skeleton (Revised)

Looking at the armor formed from Nether Sand on Ginger Cloud's body, a cold light flashed in Emperor Hao's eyes. He muttered in a voice only he could hear: "He's also from... Damn it!"
Before the Emperor Hao's words could even fall, the gust of wind shot out from Jiang Yun's hand had already enveloped the jade slip and rolled it out from the mouth of the emperor's skeleton.
Before the Jade Decree could even fall into Jiang Yun's hands, a sudden change occurred!
From the mouth of that mighty emperor's skeleton, a sudden suction force burst forth, enveloping the jade slip and sending it flying back toward his mouth.
Even more so, the palm resting on his knee—the one that Jiang Yun had just noticed seemed to twitch slightly—suddenly lifted and shot straight toward Jiang Yun with a fierce grab!
Although Gingercloud had always felt that this imperial bone might be resurrected and had been secretly on guard, the sudden attack of the imperial bone was truly beyond his expectations.
Fortunately, Ginger Cloud's years of combat experience allowed his reaction to be at its peak.
As the Emperor's skeletal jaw released its suction, he hastily retreated backward. At that precise moment, he narrowly avoided the grasping hand aimed at him.
"Bang!"
Although Jiang Yun dodged the Emperor Skeleton's palm, he failed to dodge the attack of a demon beast skeleton behind him. He was directly slapped on the shoulder by the opponent's claw.
Protected by the armor forged from the essence of primordial sand, Jiang Yun's shoulders remained unscathed. However, the excruciating pain brought him to his senses instantly. He wielded the ancient spear with unwavering resolve, thrusting it forward without hesitation.
Under a full-force attack, the demon beast's skeleton was shattered.
Gingercloud didn't pay attention to the other skeletons still approaching him, but fixed his gaze on the Emperor's skeleton.
The jade slip had already flown back into the skeleton's mouth, and the hand that had just reached for Jiang Yun was now placed back on his knee.
It seems that everything that just happened was just Ginger Cloud's illusion again. It seems that the Emperor's Skeleton never moved at all.
But this time, Jiang Yun could be sure, it was definitely not his own illusion. This Emperor's Skeleton, truly could, or rather, had already died and come back to life!
However, the other party's goal seems to be only to keep the jade slip in their possession. As long as the jade slip returns, they will no longer attack.
After hesitating for a moment, Ginger Cloud's eyes flashed with coldness. Instead of reaching out with his palm to seize the jade slip from the skeleton's mouth, he extended the Ancient Suppressing Spear towards it.
The tip of the ancient spear lightly pricked, easily picking out the jade slip!
With a metallic clang, the Emperor's skeletal jaws snapped shut, clamping down on the spear tip of the Ancient Suppressing Spear with his mouthful of bone teeth.
At the same time, his palm rose again, grabbing hold of the shaft of the Town Ancient Spear.
A cold light flashed in Jiang Yun's eyes. He grasped the shaft of the Ancient Suppressing Spear with both hands, using all his strength to try and pull the spearhead out of the other person's mouth.
But it's a pity, the power of the Emperor's bone and teeth was simply too great. With all his might, Jiang Yun couldn't pull out the Ancient Spear at all.
And seizing this fleeting moment, the Emperor's skeletal hand also gripped the shaft of the Ancient Spear!
"Not good!"
Ginger Cloud's heart skipped a beat, her wrist trembled violently, and the power of the Ancient Suppressing Spear erupted slightly, forcefully pushing open the mouth of the Emperor's skeleton.
With another forceful pull, Jiang Yun finally managed to extract the ancient gun's barrel from the Emperor's skeletal hand!
"Could this also be a test"
Ginger hastily retreated, pulling away from the skeleton. While thinking quickly, he noticed that the Emperor Skeleton's legs, crossed in meditation, trembled slightly, as if trying to rise. But in the end, it returned to stillness and sat back down.
And just as the Emperor's skeletal legs moved, Jiang Yun was sharp-eyed and saw beneath him a mass of five colors, like a mark.
It was merely the time it took the Emperor to make a slight movement, so short that Gingercloud couldn't see it clearly.
However, this was enough to make Ginger Cloud feel doubtful, even causing all the doubts that had arisen before to swarm back into his mind!
Especially about the fading power of formations!
Jiang Yun's divine sense swept across the surroundings, his eyes narrowed slightly. "The power of the formation here is much weaker than all the areas I have passed through before!"
The closer one gets to the Emperor's skeleton, the weaker the formation's power becomes!
"Before, I only saw the Emperor Skeleton's fingers twitch. Now, his whole hand can attack me, and he even seems to be about to stand up."
"The surrounding skeletons are becoming fewer and fewer."
All of these doubts swirled in Jiang Yun's mind, and after just a few breaths, Jiang Yun's face changed drastically.
Because of an unbelievable thought, it appeared in Jiang Yun's mind.
"Could it be that the formation laid out by the four tribes isn't meant to simply suppress or contain this emperor's skeleton"
Despite Ginger Cloud's composure, a hint of panic flashed in her heart at the emergence of this thought.
If this is true, then everything that the five cultivators, including himself, have done up to now, wasn't about competing for the inheritance of the Great Emperor, but... was about releasing the Great Emperor!
"Could it be that back then, this great emperor didn't die here on his own accord, but was imprisoned by the cultivators of the Four Clans within this grand formation"
Even an emperor cannot withstand the ravages of time, or perhaps this formation would steal away his vitality. So after countless years, this emperor within the formation turned into bones.
But this doesn't mean he's truly dead. After all, the Emperor's power has already surpassed my comprehension; perhaps he is immortal.
Perhaps, he had only become a skeleton in body, but he was still alive, merely enduring this state to continue resisting the great formation.
Of course, he wouldn't be content to simply die trapped within the formation. So, he created a divine consciousness avatar and used it as bait, luring members of the four clans into this place to help him break the formation and regain his freedom!
Even such a tradition is not the first time it has appeared.
Many years ago, he had also passed down something similar.
"And in that transmission, my father, just like me, coincidentally entered here as well!"
Therefore, the father mastered the art of controlling everything with his hands, and within the world of inheritance in Tongtian Lock, he even created a level where he defeated himself!
Although these ideas sound outlandish, Ginger felt that they were quite possible!
These countless skeletons, either created by the Great Emperor to consume the power of the formation, or deliberately arranged by the person who set up the formation to prevent anyone from approaching the Great Emperor.
In short, the more bones that die, the weaker the formation's power becomes.
"And what, exactly, lies beneath the Emperor's skeletal remains"
Although Ginger Cloud didn't see clearly, she vaguely saw several colors, black, white, red, and green.
Looking back at it now, a sudden realization struck him: "Could this be the four colors that appeared after Lü Zisu and the others activated the formation"
Those four figures were actually phantoms, most likely they had set up this large formation. The four ancestors of the different clans back then condensed into phantoms to suppress the Emperor.
If my guess is correct, then beneath the remains of the Great Emperor lies the true heart of this grand formation!
Jiang Yun's eyes grew brighter and brighter: "Activating the spirit formation, slaying countless skeletons, these would all weaken the formation's suppression of the Emperor's skeleton."
> "Once the power of the formation has completely dissipated, Your Majesty will regain your freedom!"t!"The five elements, Mu Xiao, and Zhen Wuji three people did not dare to be negligent, they all came to the Dao Zun's face to pay respects, their hearts were all feelings of surviving a catastrophe.T...
