Lord of All Realms

Chapter 1512: Powerful Backing



The bone absorbed them completely, like a magical sponge.

Floating in the air, Nie Tian looked down and saw the bone suspended in the black sea like a giant piece of iron that had turned red from heat.

Bright crimson light could be seen interweaving within the bone, shining like a divine treasure.

Those were brand new Bloodline Crystal Chains coming to form!

“You...” Nie Tian was confused as to why the Ripper Behemoth would want to fuse the power it had gone to great lengths to condense into that bone.

First, it had left some of its flesh aura in the shattered Realm of Heaven Span for the black tortoise to break through to the tenth grade.

Now, it was gifting this bone of an unknown origin its own power.

Thanks to the keen perception of his life bloodline, he could tell that even though it had only been a short while, the mysterious sparks the Ripper Behemoth had fused into the bone contained enough flesh power to make five ninth grade outsider grand patriarchs!

However, this highly-refined power was only helping the bone generate new Bloodline Crystal Chains.

It still seemed unreachable for the owner of the bone, a Star Behemoth that had long since perished in the river of history, to come back to life in modern times.

Shortly afterwards...

FZZZ! FZZZ!

The bone flew slowly out of the vast black sea to float in front of Nie Tian.

Sparkling light could be seen flowing through the crimson bone, with numerous Bloodline Crystal Chains interweaving inside of it like red lightning bolts.

Even though he hadn’t fused his own flesh aura into it, the bone was now five hundred meters long, and several meters wide.

It was so large he could no longer hold it in his true form. Only after activating Life Blend and fusing his flesh aura into it would he be able to wield it.

A wisp of his flesh aura that contained the profound truths of life slithered into the bone like a snake made of blood.

The crimson bone that was five hundred meters in length rapidly shrank to two meters long.

“Hmm?!”

Nie Tian’s palm that was gripping the bone was suddenly pierced by some Bloodline Crystal Chains from the bone. Then, soul calls that were filled with a strong desire for his blood came from the bone.

“Bloodline: Life Irrigation.”

After a thought entered his mind, drop after drop of Blood Essence that Nie Tian had condensed after advancing to the ninth grade was fused into the bone.

The bone instantly let out cheerful calls.

What surprised Nie Tian the most was that while the Bloodline Crystal Chains within the bone burst forth with blindingly bright light, clusters of pale-gray smoke somehow also rose from the bone as his Blood Essence was gradually fused into it.

That smoke seemed to carry toxins that had resided in it for hundreds of thousands of years, and were only being expelled at this moment!

As soon as the pale-gray smoke left the bone, the Ripper Behemoth let out a rumbling roar from the depths of the black sea.

The smoke dissipated in a flash.

However, the death power the smoke had exuded right before its dissipation made Nie Tian feel as if he had been plunged into a frozen cave.

Such death power seemed to be his life power’s natural enemy, and sparked an innate sense of repulsion in him.

Even his heart started pounding heavily as his fighting spirit was ignited.

Staring unblinkingly at the smoke, he muttered, “The aura those clusters of smoke exuded was very much similar to the aura Zhao Shanling’s Death Reign unleashed in the Realm of Unbounded Desolation. They both gave people an extreme sense of death that seemed to be capable of extinguishing all lives in this starry river!”

The similarity was uncanny.

The Ripper Behemoth’s power resided in the mists and the black sea.

Under its impact, the clusters of smoke that carried the profound truths of death finally dissipated completely, every last wisp of death power within them neutralized by the Ripper Behemoth’s rich flesh power.

“The Bone Emperor’s truths of death are dreadful indeed.” The Ripper Behemoth’s soul voice had a hint of grimness in it, as it appeared to have consumed a significant amount of power just to eliminate that smoke. “The Bone Emperor is the strongest expert throughout Bonedrude history, and the only one to ever earn the title ‘True God of Death.’ Only now, so many years after his demise, has his residual power been completely eliminated.”

Nie Tian shuddered. “What? The smoke rising from this bone was actually the Bone Emperor’s residual death power?”

“That’s right,” The Ripper Behemoth said with certainty. “It was power left by the Bone Emperor, the strongest Bonedrude that has ever lived.”

Nie Tian stood aghast.

Grand Monarch Heavenly Spirit, the Dark King, and the Bone Emperor were the only monarchs of the three powerful races in the Void World to have ever solved the mysteries of bloodline limits and risen to a whole other level.

Grand Monarch Heavenly Spirit had perished together with the first-generation Tree of Life in their confrontation.

Nie Tian had no idea how the Dark King had perished.

Was it possible that the Bone Emperor had died fighting...?

“The owner of this bone died after a legendary battle against the Bone Emperor.” Waves rose on the black sea as the Ripper Behemoth spoke. “In the distant era it lived in, it was even stronger than me. It used to take care of me when I was little.”

Nie Tian was flabbergasted. “So it actually died in a battle against the Bone Emperor? What happened to the Bone Emperor? Did he die with it, or did he survive the battle?”

“Actually, the Bone Emperor died first,” The Ripper Behemoth answered. “However, his truths of death managed to infiltrate its flesh and bones. Eventually, it failed to expel the Bone Emperor’s death power from its severely-injured body. The death power gradually devoured its last remaining flesh aura, and killed it.”

Nie Tian took a deep breath and said, “I can’t believe the Bone Emperor died first. He was the Bonedrude high chieftain that had transcended the tenth grade, for heaven’s sake!”

“The three major races in the Void World didn’t dare to mess with us when we were at the height of our power.” The Ripper Behemoth’s disdainful soul voice echoed through the entirety of the floating continent. “Times changed, and resulted in the decline of my race. These heaven and earths couldn’t support our prosperity. They limited our growth, while the smaller and weaker beings took the opportunity to rise to prominence.”

Nie Tian’s expression flickered as he asked, “So you were helping it expel the residual death power just now, right?”

“Actually, it was your Blood Essence that expelled the death power from it,” The Ripper Behemoth answered. “Even I can’t refine or expel the Bone Emperor’s death power from its bone. Only your bloodline and the truths of life it contains can neutralize the Bone Emperor’s death power.”

“Is it possible to revive it?” Nie Tian asked.

The Ripper Behemoth let out a sigh. “Revive it? It’s far too difficult to do that. Times have changed. The amount of power required to revive it is beyond your imagination. Only if you can gather the flesh power of at least ten late tenth grade Ancientspirits or outsider grand monarchs will you have a chance at bringing it back to life.”

“What?!” Nie Tian instantly dropped the idea of reviving it.

There might not even be that many late tenth grade grand monarchs in the Spirit World.

Not to mention how powerful they had to be.

The flesh aura of ten late tenth grade grand monarchs put together might give him a chance at reviving the owner of this bone. Wasn’t this like a joke?

Also, even if he was strong enough to kill late tenth grade grand monarchs, he would probably benefit more by channeling their flesh auras into himself outright than using them to revive that Star Behemoth.

What would be the meaning of him reviving it then?
