Chapter 40: Remnants of Bones
taying put. That doesn't constitute disobedience.”Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!"...Yes!"In the midst of the roaring, the gates of Sān Shān City shut tightly.In the...The Boneyard Palace.
The vast palace complex is now truly deserted.
Even the gods who descended from heaven were defeated, and the entire White Bone Dao vanished without a trace.

Only this grand palace can still prove its existence.
The connection with the netherworld had long since been severed, and there was no longer any link between the White Bone Mausoleum and that entity in the underworld.

Now, Zhang Linchuan, who occupies the White Bone Holy Body, is the master of this place.
Completely refining the sacred body is a long process, after all, this is a divine body prepared for himself by a Netherworld deity.
But Zhang Linchuan was full of confidence.
With a body that was not perfect, he completed his plot against the deity. He had never doubted his pursuit of power.
His eyes held only the powerful, his very bones radiated icy coldness. Back then in Maple Forest City, whether it was Zhu Weiyi or Wei Yan, he didn't even consider them in his sight. Even though Zhu Weiyi later battled Kuishan and snatched a divine ability at the last moment, achieving the Divine Ability Inner Palace, to him now, she was already far behind.
Only... that Wang Changji who occupied his original body, with only the cultivation of his original body's inner palace, made him feel a sense of unease.
After all, strictly speaking, Wang Changji was the one who truly defeated the Underworld Divinity in direct combat.
In the vast empty hall, footsteps echoed loudly. They were so heavy that they were almost frightening.
For example, those with rabbit-like bone faces find it very uncomfortable. They always tiptoe around.
Zhang Linchuan stopped his breathing and saw Lu Yan walking out from the depths of the long corridor.
The former Sanzhang Lao, a devoted follower of the Bai Gu Dao, completely lost his trust in the Bai Gu Zun Shen because of Dao Zi's incident. He was persuaded to join the rebellion against the Bai Gu Zun Shen.

This was undoubtedly a very risky move, but the rewards were also substantial.
He bore the greatest danger, and the benefits of Bai Gu Sheng Shu needless to say, while Lu Yan's one benefit was sharing the complete copy of the Bai Gu scripture with him.
Integrated all twelve White Bone Divine Appearance Secret Arts, including all the secret arts cultivated by the three elders, messengers, and holy maidens.
Of course, this complete scripture was shared by the three of them: him, Lu Yan, and Miaoyu. Miaoyu's other condition for completely leaving the Bai Gu Dao was...
As for Lü Yan, what he yearned for most was still the soul of his deceased wife, who remained lost and adrift somewhere.
But besides the fact that the other party had not yet been reborn and dissipated, he didn't know anything else——it was no wonder that after the White Bone Venerable's credibility collapsed, he directly chose to rebel. It was simply that for so many years there had been no real progress, everything hanging in front of him had only been an illusion.
“Did you use your abilities to peek into the underworld again” Zhang Linchuan asked.
Today, he needn't feign respect towards that person anymore.
Although the White Bone Holy Body has not been completely refined, its combat power is already above that of Lu Yan.
Lu Yan closed his eyes, his voice still as unpleasant as ever: "Searching for a needle in the sea."
“What are you worried about” Zhang Linchuan said softly, “The blood oath was made by yourself. Besides you, no one else knows the object of the blood pact. And I have already sworn an oath. Having promised you something, there will be no wavering.”
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"桀桀桀." Lu Yan let out a strange laugh: "I know your strength and talent very well. How long can the blood oath still restrain you And once you lose the restriction of the blood oath, what promise would bind you"
“You can always mend the blood oath, I’ll definitely cooperate.” Zhang Linchuan frowned and said: “Or maybe I can take the risk of opening the underworld channel for you now, allowing you to personally enter the underworld and find the person you're looking for. But are you sure you can escape the scrutiny of the White Bone Venerable The underworld is His domain after all.”
They were simply a union of interests with no trust whatsoever. Zhang Linchuan could only lay out the stakes clearly and let the other party make their own choice.
As Zhang Linchuan said, Lu Yan's betrayal was most painful because his final destination was still in the Underworld, which is where the White Bone God resides.
If it weren't for the White Bone Divine Venerable acting as a deity, repeatedly betraying and deceiving his followers. No matter what, Lu Yan would find it difficult to make up his mind.
Although he has now reached this point, bringing the White Bone Deity down to Earth and shattering its divine thoughts, for him, the truly difficult time is yet to come.
“How much longer will it take for you to master the art of stealth and invisibility” Lu Yan asked.
At that time, Zhang Linchuan, in order to gain support, did not hesitate to swear a blood oath. One of them was to create the Incognito Netherworld Method, helping Lu Yan avoid the gaze of the White Bone Venerable God, making it appear as if he had personally entered the Netherworld to seek conditions.
Zhang Linchuan replied, “Wait for me to thoroughly refine the White Bone Holy Body and then I will begin. Believe me, that’s not a difficult task.”
Having cracked the power of the White Bone Venerable God, he has proven his abilities in this regard and is qualified to say so.
Lu Yan no longer spoke, still closing his eyes and beginning to walk back.
In fact, he didn't put all his hopes on Zhang Linchuan. He was also researching the White Bone Scriptures himself, but he lacked confidence in whether he could avoid Bai Gu Zun Shen's gaze in the Underworld.
After Lu Yan left, Zhang Linchuan only then took out a bone mirror, reaching out to wipe the surface.
The scene in the mirror rippled like water, and then the exquisitely beautiful face of Miao Yu appeared.

“It seems you’ve stabilized your body.” Miao Yu spoke first.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate any other text!
“This is not surprising to you,” Zhang Linchuan replied softly, “What’s your name now”
Miaoyu seemed not to understand the deeper meaning, only saying: "Bai Lian or Miaoyu, it depends on how you want to call her."
Zhang Linchuan leaned closer to the bone mirror and looked at her, saying: "I want to rebuild the Bai Gu Dao. Why don't you come back and help me I promise you a real position as Holy Maiden."
Miaoyu smiled, her smile enchanting: "I have no interest in cults now. Especially cults that don't even have a deity."
Zhang Linchuan lowered his eyelids: "It seems you already have a place to stay."
Miaoyu remained noncommittal: "Looking at this Daoist's face, I find it quite awkward. What do you think, messenger"
Zhang Linchuan's possession of the White Bone Sacred Body was not complete, and Miao Yu, as the White Bone Saint Maiden, was regarded by the White Bone Venerable God as an existence of "Dao Fruit".
They are all very clear about this.
As the weaker party, Miaoyu acted with particular caution. Even sharing the White Bone Scriptures was done remotely.
At this point, Zhang Linchuan hinted at going to find her, somewhat insistently. Miao Yu retorted by bringing up Wang Changji's presence.
If she gave the White Bones Scripture to Wang Changji, it would be difficult to say that the man couldn't see through his current weaknesses.
This undoubtedly hit his weak spot.
But Zhang Linchuan remained calm: "Do you think he poses a threat to me"
“Only now do I realize, debts must be repaid.” Miaoyu suddenly sighed, but the sorrow in her eyes made it hard to tell if it was genuine: “Perhaps you’ll only understand this when it’s time for you to repay your debt.”
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Zhang Linchuan's face remained unchanged: "Oh"
“Hee hee.” Miao Yu smiled again: “Don’t try to chase me, that’s a dangerous thing to do.”
The mirror flickered, and Miaoyu’s face vanished from it.
Need not to sense anymore, Zhang Linchuan also knew that the connection of this bone mirror must have been completely severed. That is to say, he would no longer be able to contact Miaoyu through this means.
That's why we can't get more details and pinpoint their location.
"A clever woman."
Zhang Linchuan's eyes were dangerous, but he smiled.despair in those aging eyes.For some reason, he suddenly thought of a phrase that he often said to Xiangqian——“No matter how hard you try, it won't make any difference.”Also there was Zhao Ru Cheng, w...
