Hao Miaojun was also bewildered. Gazing at Xue Kong's determined figure, she muttered to herself, "How much does this man really know about this Black Tower? What is it about that terrifying monster that attracts him?"
She naturally didn't think Xue Kong was seeking his own death.
On the contrary, she believed that anything that Xue Kong liked was a real treasure.
Xue Kong could even drink the red-bearded dragon egg to improve his cultivation. It can be seen that in his eyes, treasures of this level can be given up.
The owner of Yuejia Villa had the same idea as Hao Miaojun.
The two stood in front of the black tower, staring blankly at Xue Kong's figure, watching him walk all the way under the Bone Cauldron, and the dozens of soft mouthparts attacked Xue Kong.
Xue Kong was not in a hurry. He tapped the sand with his toes, and with the activation of his cultivation, a small pit appeared in the sand under his feet. At the same time, Xue Kong leaped high into the air.
Those dozens of soft mouthparts lashed towards Xue Kong like long whips.
He dodged it cleverly in mid-air.
Xue Kong stepped on one of the mouthparts, then used the force to suddenly jump up. His body was as light as a flying swallow or as high as a roc, and he dodged the attack of each mouthpart very skillfully.
His footsteps did not stop, landing on one mouthpart after another. As he continued to exert strength, he kept jumping up, his body jumping higher and higher until he reached the back of the bone cup.
It fell on the iron armor on the back of the bone cup.
"The monster transformed from sand is indeed not the original. It doesn't resemble the original, but it does resemble it in form. It still possesses some of the monster's abilities. The White Bone Cauldron has such a strange name, and it's closely related to the white bone pattern."
Xue Kong's eyes were bright, and his gaze fell on the white bone patterns on the iron armor.
These white bone patterns are indeed the bones of human beings.
These white bones could scare mortals and ordinary cultivators, but they couldn't scare Xue Kong at all. There was even a hint of joy in his eyes when he looked at these white bone patterns.
"The Bone Cauldron feeds on devouring living beings. If it swallows a cultivator, bone patterns will form on its body surface. This bone pattern is equivalent to a pill that can improve cultivation, and is of great benefit to the cultivator."
Xue Kong clasped his hands together, and seals appeared, making his hands emit a faint fluorescent light.
Then, he squatted down, and his right hand, which was emitting fluorescent light, reached out to grab a palm-sized forearm-shaped bone pattern at his feet, held it tightly in his hand, and broke it with force.
Click.
A sound like breaking stones was heard, and the white bone pattern on the forearm was forcibly broken off by Xue Kong and held in his hand.
"My cultivation has reached the middle stage of foundation building. No matter how many pills suitable for Qi Condensation, they are useless to me. This white bone pattern is equivalent to a pill for the fifth level of Qi Condensation, but it can increase my spiritual power."
Xue Kong played with the white bone pattern, and memories of it emerged in his mind.
This is what makes the white bone pattern so special.
Putting away the bone patterns in his hand, Xue Kong used both hands to continuously break off the bone patterns on the black iron armor. His hands moved quickly and he collected more than a dozen of them in a short while.
These bone patterns are to the Bone Cauldron what human fingernails are to it. No matter how many Xue Kong breaks off, the Bone Cauldron will not feel any pain and will not affect him.
However, before that, Xue Kong walked towards the bone bowl as if no one was around, which attracted the attention of many cultivators. Their eyes were fixed on Xue Kong.
At this moment, he was seen collecting bone patterns quickly.
Someone immediately exclaimed in surprise, "So this person's purpose is to collect bones. Could these bones be treasures?"
"I scanned the bones with my spiritual sense, but I couldn't see anything unusual about them. Is this really a treasure, and not a useless thing?"
"No matter what, that person is indeed collecting these bones. It must be something unique that we haven't discovered yet. He must have a reason for taking the time and effort to do it."
"Don't fall behind, attack together!" After a brief commotion, all the monks moved together.
But there were two figures who were faster than them. They had already rushed to the mouthparts of the Bone Cauldron and were about to climb onto the iron armor after a series of jumps.
These two people are Hao Miaojun and the owner of Yue Family Villa.
They found that Xue Kong was collecting bone patterns, and ran over without any hesitation.
Just as the two were about to step onto the black iron armor, an extremely terrifying pressure suddenly emanated from the armor and shook towards the bottom of the armor.
The figures of Hao Miaojun and the owner of Yue Family Villa who had just jumped up were like being hit by a heavy hammer. The owner of Yue Family Villa's face changed slightly and he immediately shouted: "Fellow Daoist Xue, why are you putting pressure on us two!!"
Anger appeared on Hao Miaojun's face. She knew clearly that Xue Kong must have done this on purpose.
At this moment, an apologetic voice came from above: "I thought it was those other monks. Fellow Daoists, please come up quickly. I will drive away the others for you."
"Hmph!" Hao Miaojun was intelligent and understood what Xue Kong was planning.
She had just stood firmly on a mouthpart and was about to jump up when she found that the pressure from the middle stage of foundation building was still on her, making it difficult for her to move.
Her voice was icy as she shouted, "Fellow Daoist Xue, please put away your pressure!"
"Sorry, if it weren't for this pressure to hold back the others, if they all rushed forward, you two would probably not get anything." Xue Kong's voice came, "You two should use some tricks and come up on yourselves."
Hao Miaojun gritted his teeth, wanting to get angry but having no legitimate reason.
There was no room for hesitation at this moment, and all the monks below were jumping up.
The owner of Yue Family Villa pulled up a bitter smile at the corner of his mouth. Even though he had some grudges in his heart, he knew that this was not the time to attack. He quickly activated his cultivation and took out the magic weapon to help himself climb onto the armor.
Hao Miaojun no longer hesitated and also took out the magic weapon and climbed up the armor step by step.
Under normal circumstances, Xue Kong's pressure would have an impact on them, but it would not be so great. But here, the dozens of mouthparts of the Bone Cauldron attacked continuously and had to jump upwards, which was really difficult.
There are more than just the two of them.
It was even more difficult for other monks, as if they were climbing a towering mountain that would interfere with and kill people.
Some cultivators with Qi Condensation cultivation were caught by the mouthparts without paying attention, and were dragged into the mouth inside the iron armor by the Bone Cauldron. After being absorbed, new bone patterns appeared on the iron armor.
At first they could still tolerate this.
Until the other monsters around gathered around and attacked them, the climbing journey became increasingly difficult.
For a time, many monks were killed or injured, and they were wailing everywhere under the pressure.
"Damn it! That damned Foundation Establishment cultivator actually released a powerful pressure to stop us. Under this pressure, not only are our movements hindered, but even our cultivation is affected!"
"If it weren't for this pressure, I would have climbed up long ago. Why would I struggle here?"
"Oh no, more and more monsters are gathering. If this continues, we will be killed by them all." The monks roared angrily, and some even began to curse Xue Kong.
At this moment, Xue Kong, who was wearing armor, had a brilliant smile on his face.
