98: The Broken Soul Derived Bone is complete

Tang Tian said, "It hurts."

But to avoid suffering a loss, he plunged into the lava.

Fortunately, Tang Tian was a Body Refinement Cultivator, otherwise he would have been gone by now.

Tang Tian's Soul Severing Bone began to fiercely absorb the Spiritual Qi from the Marrow Cleansing Pool.

A giant ethereal bone appeared above the Marrow Cleansing Pool, and it was fortunate that the Marrow Cleansing Pool's door was currently closed.

Otherwise, if the Foundation Establishment Cultivators outside saw it, Tang Tian would be finished.

The Soul Severing Bone was originally born under extremely boiling conditions.

The Soul Severing Bone directly pulled Tang Tian to the bottom of the lava!

A Spiritual Qi protective membrane appeared around the Soul Severing Bone, shielding Tang Tian.

It began to absorb the entire Marrow Cleansing Pool's Spiritual Qi in a swirling motion, radiating outwards from Tang Tian, causing the entire lava lake to spin in a vortex.

A large amount of Spiritual Qi was transmitted through Tang Tian to the Soul Severing Bone in the air.

It continuously flushed Tang Tian's Meridians.

Tang Tian said, "This is too painful."

Moreover, the Soul Severing Bone was absorbing all the Spiritual Qi; Tang Tian gained nothing except stronger Meridians.

If Tang Tian wanted to gain something, he would have to wait until the Soul Severing Bone finished absorbing, then he could 'drink some soup'.

The surrounding lava covered Tang Tian, and he gradually moved towards the center of the lava lake.

Even at the bottom of the lava, there were endless flames burning.

Actually, Tang Tian wasn't afraid; if worst came to worst, he could hide in the Medicine Venerable Space.

He would give orders to Wu Qi and the others in the Medicine Venerable Space to continuously plant cold-natured medicinal herbs for him.

Just like that, Tang Tian actually endured it.

Three days passed quickly.

Tang Tian opened his eyes at the bottom of the lava, swam upwards, and reached the surface of the lava lake.

Tang Tian saw a shocking sight.

The lava lake had no heat left!

The entire lava lake was a murky gray, and the Soul Severing Bone had finished absorbing, slowly returning to Tang Tian's body.

The Soul Severing Bone had actually absorbed all the heat from this lava lake!

Feeling the Soul Severing Bone within his body, Tang Tian discovered that the missing half of the Soul Severing Bone was now complete.

Now, what Tang Tian had in his body was the complete version of the Soul Severing Bone, while Senior Brother Chi Qingzi's Soul Severing Bone was only half.

Tang Tian felt the strength within his body; now the Soul Severing Bone could store ten thousand strands of Evil Qi!

This was the power of the Soul Severing Bone, and Tang Tian was overjoyed.

Tang Tian said, "This is too strong."

After all, Tang Tian knew that he could only attack with Evil Qi; with these ten thousand strands of Evil Qi, even Senior Brother Chi Qingzi would have to think twice before fighting him.

However, Tang Tian's little face then wrinkled up, and Tang Tian said, "This Marrow Cleansing Pool now has no Spiritual Qi. How am I going to explain this? If the Foundation Establishment Cultivators find out, I'll probably be sliced up and examined."

Tang Tian sighed.

He frowned, trying to think of a solution.

Suddenly, Tang Tian said, "I've got it! This Marrow Cleansing Pool just has no Spiritual Qi. If I gather its Spiritual Qi back, wouldn't that solve it?"

After deciding, Tang Tian quickly gave orders to Wu Qi and the others to take out all the Spirit Medicine from the Medicine Venerable Space after leaving behind their seeds.

Although Wu Qi and the others were puzzled by Tang Tian's command, they still followed Tang Tian's instructions, leaving behind the seeds of all the Spirit Medicine they had planted, and throwing them out one by one.

Tang Tian looked at his Spirit Medicine with a pained expression and said with a heavy heart, "I can only try."

Tang Tian threw all the Spirit Medicine from the Medicine Venerable Space into the lava pool.

The Spirit Medicine instantly burned in the lava pool, and Spiritual Qi gathered on the surface of the lava pool, and instantly the lava began to regain its heat.

Tang Tian exclaimed in surprise, "It worked!"

After throwing down all the Spiritual Plants taller than himself, the lava lake had recovered more than half, but only the surface area of the lava lake.

Tang Tian gave another order, saying, "Plant another batch of seeds."

The animals in the Medicine Venerable Space immediately got to work, and fortunately, the Spiritual Field was efficient, and they were planted in no time.

Tang Tian then threw down these Spirit Medicine that were taller than him; although these Spirit Medicine didn't have enough Spiritual Power, it was enough.

The surface of the lava lake was now no different from when Tang Tian first entered.

Although the interior had scarce Spiritual Power, if one didn't carefully investigate the absorption in the middle of the lava lake, nothing would be noticeable.

If the Green Mountain Sect discovered something amiss, it would be next year.

Tang Tian said, "That was close. I didn't expect this Soul Severing Bone to be so strong. Next year, I'll have to avoid the Green Mountain Sect, but it should be fine if I flat-out deny it."

Tang Tian comforted himself. At this moment, the door of the Marrow Cleansing Pool trembled, and the door opened.

The Law Enforcement Elder of Green Mountain Sect said, "Time is up, Fellow Daoist, please come out."

The Law Enforcement Elder of Green Mountain Sect only said this after confirming that the Marrow Cleansing Pool was fine.

Tang Tian cupped his fist towards the Law Enforcement Elder of Green Mountain Sect and said calmly, "I wonder if I can still come to the Marrow Cleansing Pool next year."

The Enforcement Elder said, "Fellow Daoist, you jest. Each Cultivator can only come once every ten years, after all, our Green Mountain Sect cannot invite you every time."

Tang Tian cupped his fist and said, "It's actually so strict."

Tang Tian felt relieved and walked out.

At this moment, Zhen Qu had also just come out.

Zhen Qu asked, "Fellow Daoist Yu, how was your harvest?"

Tang Tian smiled bitterly, "Average."

Zhen Qu said, "Fellow Daoist, this is your compensation."

Zhen Qu gave Tang Tian twenty thousand Spirit Stones. Tang Tian had used twelve thousand Spirit Stones in the previous battle.

Zhen Qu had promised to reimburse Tang Tian, and the extra eight thousand Spirit Stones were the compensation Zhen Qu mentioned.

Adding the Marrow Cleansing Pool, this compensation was quite generous.

Tang Tian took the Spirit Stones and said, "Each gets what they need."

Tang Tian asked, "Can I leave now?"

At this moment, the Enforcement Elder suddenly said, "Fellow Daoist, wait a moment."

Tang Tian was stunned. Could they have found out?

The Enforcement Elder said, "It's truly a pity for a young talent like Fellow Daoist not to join our Green Mountain Sect. I and several other Enforcement Elders have discussed and decided to offer you the position of Guest Elder of Green Mountain Sect."

Tang Tian said, "Can I refuse?"

The Enforcement Elder said with a smile, "Then do you want to leave?"

Tang Tian asked, "May I know what I need to do after becoming a Guest Elder of Green Mountain Sect?"

The Enforcement Elder said, "You don't need to do anything. Our Green Mountain Sect will still give you two thousand Spirit Stones annually, and if you encounter danger, you can also invoke the name of Green Mountain Sect. However, after escaping danger by using the name of Green Mountain Sect, you will have to work for Green Mountain Sect in the future."

Tang Tian felt relieved. He almost thought they had discovered something amiss with that pool of lava. It turned out to be just this.

Tang Tian pondered, "Then can I join other Sects?"

The Enforcement Elder said with a smile, "What do you think?"

Tang Tian said, "I have long admired Green Mountain Sect; it is my good fortune to join today!"

Enforcement Elder: ...

The Enforcement Elder said, "Alright, alright, take your Spirit Stones and leave."

The Enforcement Elder gave Tang Tian two thousand Spirit Stones.

As Tang Tian walked further and further away, the Enforcement Elder said from behind, "After invoking the name of Green Mountain Sect when you encounter danger, don't forget to fulfill the Green Mountain Sect's contract."

Only mentioning danger but not who caused it, right? Tang Tian decided he would stay far away from Green Mountain Sect in the future...
