Shentu Nantian's first thought was that the "Yin" labeled desolate bone's spiritual backlash had lost its effectiveness. Regardless if it were Shentu Feng or Shentu Hai, handling the spiritual backlash from the desolate bones was a life and death struggle. Only by using powerful sealing techniques could they resolve the danger through great difficulty.
And now, Yi Yun, who was fifteen years old, had used the run-of-the-mill Mystic Crystal Hand. Why didn't he suffer the spiritual backlash without a sound? Also, his speed at extracting the energy was faster than Shentu Feng?
As these thoughts lingered in Shentu Nantian’s mind, he watched helplessly as an ashen gray colored gas flowed out of the cracked "Yin" labeled desolate bone in Yi Yun's hands.
This gray gas was cold and silent, it was the spiritual backlash force that was produced as a result of the ancient processing methods used on the "Yin" labeled desolate bone!
Yi Yun looked calm as he used the Mystic Crystal Hand's seals to suppress the ashen gray gas completely.
After that, he casually took a jade box out of his interspatial ring and he nonchalantly sealed the ashen gray gas inside.
Seeing this scene, Shentu Nantian was so dumbfounded that he stood as still as a statue.
Not only Shentu Nantian, even the members of the upper echelon of the Lin family had the same reaction.
When Shentu Feng suddenly displayed the Saber Sword Shura, it had attracted everyone’s attention. While they were briefly focused on Shentu Feng, who knew that in a short moment, Yi Yun had already completed the energy extraction of the "Yin" labeled desolate bone?
"Yi Yun, he… " Lin Xintong had been focused on Yi Yun all this time. In fact, when Desolate Heaven Masters refined desolate bones, laypersons would not be able to figure out much. And Lin Xintong was still young, so she did not have the ability to see through the essence of items; hence, she too did not know what had happened.
"It's quite odd… How did this young one do it?"
Many of the Lin family's Elders were both excited and incredulous. They knew the difficulty of extracting the Power of Desolates from the "Yin" labeled desolate bone. However, Yi Yun had done something incredulous before by cracking Song Ziyue's Five Elemental Bone Array with the Mystic Crystal Hand.
And now, Yi Yun had once again completed a seemingly impossible task. Although they were shocked, they barely accepted it.
If the Lin family had another Desolate Heaven technique genius, it would obviously be beneficial for the Lin family.
Especially for the Lin family's Matriarch, she stared at Yi Yun without blinking as her eyes sparkled.
She increasingly liked this junior. If he could accompany Lin Xintong and mature together with her, then he would be a great help to Lin Xintong. He would not only be very beneficial for Lin Xintong in the future, but he could also provide the various refinements needed after her naturally terminated meridians were joined.
However, the Lin family's Matriarch could also tell that Shentu Nantian had a grudge with Yi Yun like how oil and water did not mix. This was a problem that gave her a headache.
If Shentu Nantian was chosen, they could heal Lin Xintong’s naturally terminated meridians with the power of the Shentu family clan. After which Shentu Nantian would probably not allow Yi Yun to exist.
At that moment, Yi Yun flipped his palm as the energy blob merged with the huge disk array beneath his feet.
As the disk array's corresponding "Yin" label lit up, the "Chou" labeled desolate bone in Shentu Feng's hands suddenly trembled. Three runic explosions occurred successively.
Shentu Feng's face turned pale as his eyes turned bloodshot. At that moment, he had nearly lost control of the energy in his hands.
As Yi Yun had finished extracting the energy from the "Yin" desolate bone earlier than expected, Shentu Feng had naturally noticed this. He could not believe that it had happened.
Due to the emotional upheaval that Shentu Feng had experienced, his mental energy was unstable, so he made a mistake with his Saber Sword Shura seals.
Originally, with Shentu Feng's abilities, it was already not easy for him to use the Saber Sword Shura as he was not good at combat. Naturally, a person who was not good at combat was unable to perform the decisive killing intent required of the Saber Sword Shura.
Now, Shentu Feng's saber and sword beams exploded continuously and the energy in his hands was about to undergo a complete meltdown. Once it happened, Shentu Feng would suffer the consequences of a spiritual backlash. Damaging his soul was considered a light injury, and the worst case scenario was becoming a retard.
The more he panicked, the more trouble he was in. Beads of sweat oozed out of his forehead.
"Damn it!"
Shentu Nantian, who was in the center of the disk array, was fast to react. As Shentu Feng had an accident, Shentu Nantian quickly woke up from the shock he had gotten from Yi Yun completing the energy extraction of the "Yin" labeled desolate bone. He pushed his hands forward as a Yuan Qi sword shot into the energy blob in front of Shentu Feng, steadily stabilizing the energy that nearly exploded.
"What are you panicking about!?" Shentu Nantian's fierce voice rang in Shentu Feng's ears.
At that moment, Shentu Nantian was in a really bad mood. He had wished to take Yi Yun down a notch, and he saw it about to succeed, but he did not know what method Yi Yun had used to complete the task. And at that moment, Shentu Feng's made a mistake with the Saber Sword Shura. It nearly exploded in front of the audience. This made Shentu Nantian very pissed.
He had really felt disgraced today!
And all of this was due to that Yun Yantian.
…
"Saber Sword Shura, is it… ?"
Yi Yun looked at the sealing technique Shentu Feng was using as his eyes sparkled. Previously, when Yi Yun was busy extracting the energy from the "Yin" labeled desolate bone, he did not have the mental resources to watch the technique carefully. Now with him watching it, he was quite alarmed.
This technique did not look anything like the Desolate Heaven technique. It looked more like a sword and saber technique.
Under the control of this sealing technique, the Power of Desolates in the desolate bone would condense into runic seals in the shape of swords and sabers. The sharp aura they emitted was alarming.
Yi Yun had no doubt that if these runic seals were sent flying, they could kill someone!
Such a peculiar and powerful sealing technique made Yi Yun slightly covet it.
"If I were to obtain this sealing technique, it would be great… "
As these thoughts lingered in Yi Yun’s mind, Shentu Feng had barely managed to complete the energy extraction from the "Chou" labeled desolate bone with Shentu Nantian's help.
Due to the accident from before, he was clearly drained. His mental energy had been overdrafted and he could not take it anymore.
Shentu Feng secretly gritted his teeth as he looked at Yi Yun. Up until now, he still did not know what happened. How did Yi Yun succeed in extracting the energy from the "Yin" labeled desolate bone so smoothly?
"Senior brother Nantian…"
"Shut up!"
Shentu Feng wanted to use his Yuan Qi to transmit his voice, but he was brutally cut off by Shentu Nantian.
Shentu Nantian was no longer in the mood to speak to Shentu Feng.
Shentu Feng knew that he did not do well, so he did not dare speak again. He quietly swallowed a Soul Nurturing pill and recovered some mental energy so as to prepare for the work that awaited him later.
Shentu Nantian sullenly placed the primordial strain blood in the center of the disk array. He no longer cared about Yi Yun.
Compared to shining at this Desolate Heaven technique tea session and letting the stubborn old fools of the Lin family completely lean towards him, trampling on Yi Yun was nothing.
Now, three of the twelve desolate bones' energy had been collected. This ancient bone refinement recipe could officially begin. What followed was for Shentu Nantian to showcase himself.
Although his face had been smacked swollen, it did not matter. As long as he did things well in what followed, this Desolate Heaven technique tea session would be a great success!
