The Unparalleled Sword Emperor-Chapter 2460 - 2337: Bone City

The Bone Withering Secret Realm is a vast Magic Circle. When the Li Family’s ancestors arrived at Kunxu, they piled up all the uncorrupted bones here. Over the years, the accumulated resentment gave these bones spiritual wisdom, thus creating the Bone Spirits!

And Bone City is the Formation Eye of this vast Magic Circle. If Bone City is destroyed, this large Magic Circle will be broken, and the Bone Spirits here will enter Kunxu. At that time, Kunxu will inevitably face another disaster.

The Bone Withering Secret Realm belongs exclusively to the Li Family, so only disciples of the Li Family can be found here.

Nowadays, there are very few disciples from the main lineage of the Li Family, so most of them here are from the collateral lines and branch families!

Lin Bai and Li Fugui rushed all the way to Bone City.

On the horizon ahead, a grand and ancient city lay on the ground.

This ancient city, though cast from yellow clay, appeared more solid than steel and was invincible.

From afar, Lin Bai could see countless warriors on the city wall, preparing for action, watching the world ahead with furrowed brows, seemingly waiting for some formidable enemy to arrive!

Lin Bai remained expressionless as he and Li Fugui slowly approached Bone City.

Upon reaching Bone City, Lin Bai saw the ground before the city was stained with blood, with piles of bones stacked like mountains, among them some White Bones and many disciples of the Li Family.

Evidently, this place had just undergone a fierce battle!

"Brother Lin Bai, we have arrived. This place is Bone City, let’s enter the city!" Li Fugui arrived here, his previously jovial expression was now considerably solemn, especially upon seeing so many bones in front of the city, his face turned somewhat grave.

Li Fugui said, "I originally thought this was merely a common Bone Tide, but looking at the fierce battle in front of the city wall, I fear this place is far more complicated than we imagined!"

Lin Bai followed Li Fugui as they entered Bone City.

"Halt! Which family’s disciple are you?"

However, as Lin Bai and Li Fugui approached the city walls, an armored warrior stopped them.

Lin Bai scrutinized the man, although wearing armor, his armor was covered with claw marks, as if sharp claws had left them.

Between his brows was an indelible solemnity and concern.

Li Fugui stepped forward and said, "Hello, cousin, I am Li Fugui, a disciple of the collateral line. The person beside me is Saint Lin Bai of Dongzhou Academy, we received news that Bone City is in distress, thus we specially came to aid!"

Lin Bai heard Li Fugui introduce himself and also clasped his hands, saying, "I am Lin Bai, Saint of Dongzhou Academy!"

"So it’s the Saint of Dongzhou Academy..." The armored warrior showed little interest in Li Fugui, but after hearing Lin Bai’s background, he took a second look.

Especially Lin Bai’s heroic deeds in the Heavenly Saber Tribe, which have spread throughout Kunxu, and his cultivation of the Great Sun Chasing Skill, making Lin Bai currently a coveted disciple within Kunxu!

Li Fugui asked, "Cousin, can we enter the city?"

The armored warrior stepped aside and said, "This time of great disaster in Bone City, all disciples of the Li Family need to contribute. After you two enter the city, turn left, and you can register directly at the military service office and join the corps for unified deployment!"

Li Fugui heard this, frowned, and asked, "Cousin, is the situation of Bone City so dire? Do the disciples of the Li Family need to join the corps for independent deployment?"

The armored warrior said, "You may not be aware, but yesterday at dusk, the Bone Tide erupted, and tens of thousands of Bone Spirits attacked Bone City, where almost all the warriors defending the city perished!"

"And today, although many Li Family’s martial artists have come to support, we feel that things may not be so simple!"

"The next Bone Tide is likely to be even larger!"

The armored warrior said coldly.

Li Fugui heard this, his face turned pale, his fat body trembling a few times involuntarily.

"Thank you, cousin." After thanking him, Li Fugui entered Bone City with Lin Bai, and according to the armored man’s guidance, they reached the military service office, witnessing a long line.

Lin Bai and Li Fugui quietly lined up at the end of the queue, waiting patiently.

Lin Bai saw Li Fugui looking deeply worried.

Lin Bai smiled and asked, "Li Fugui, what’s wrong? You seem to have something on your mind?"

Li Fugui said, "I just didn’t expect the Bone Tide this time in Bone City to be so strong!" 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"Brother Lin Bai, though Bone City has had Bone Tides before, each time there were at most just over ten thousand Bone Spirits, usually appearing in two or three waves before ending!"

"I remember three years ago, when Bone City had a Bone Tide, the first wave had ten thousand Bone Spirits, the second wave had twenty thousand, and the third wave had thirty thousand..."

"But this time, the first wave already had tens of thousands of Bone Spirits!"

Li Fugui said with a serious face.

Lin Bai frowned and said, "When you put it like that, this indeed sounds strange!"

Li Fugui said, "Yes, never before have there been tens of thousands of Bone Spirits appearing all at once!"

Lin Bai gently nodded, engaging in idle conversation with Li Fugui as they reached the military service office.

"Name, origin, cultivation!" An old man sitting behind a desk said expressionlessly.

Li Fugui said, "Li Fugui, collateral disciple, Great Perfection of the Life-and-Death Realm cultivation!"

The old man, hearing this, took out a cadmium red pen and wrote on a Token before tossing it to Li Fugui, saying, "Great Perfection of the Life-and-Death Realm, Ninth Army Corps! Your corps station is in South City, defending the South Gate!"

Li Fugui accepted the Token, clasped his hands in respect, and stepped aside, waiting for Lin Bai!

After Li Fugui left, Lin Bai stepped forward and said, "Lin Bai, Saint of Dongzhou Academy, Great Perfection of the Life-and-Death Realm cultivation!"

"Saint of Dongzhou Academy..." The old man heard this and looked up with surprise, saying, "You are that Saint Lin Bai from Dongzhou Academy who fought heroically in the Heavenly Saber Tribe!"

Lin Bai nodded slightly.

The old man wrote with a stroke: "Great Perfection of the Life-and-Death Realm, Ninth Army Corps! You can go along with Li Fugui just now!"

"Brother Lin Bai, this was originally a matter for the Li Family, but I must thank you on behalf of the Li Family for coming to support us!"

Lin Bai clasped his hands, saying, "I am honored by the Li Family’s invitation to Kunxu for cultivation, so naturally, I must contribute to the Li Family. No need for thanks!"

Lin Bai received the Token, turned around, and went along with Li Fugui to South City.

Along the way, Lin Bai saw many disciples of the Li Family heading to South City, with varying cultivations, some in the Death Reversal Realm, others in the Life-and-Death Realm.

Upon reaching South City, Lin Bai and Li Fugui found the Ninth Army Corps!

"You are assigned to the Ninth Army Corps Wolf Banner Camp!" Upon explaining their intent, Lin Bai and Li Fugui were assigned their positions in the Ninth Army Corps!
