Becoming the Demon Lord: Taming the Demon Queen Begins

Chapter 112: The path of bones

"Who is that woman, anyway?"

"How is it possible that Timothy would give her such an intimate massage!"

Many practitioners witnessed this unbelievable scene.

Walking alongside a woman in a nondescript black robe, Timothy was affectionately massaging her shoulders.

And it seemed like they were quite familiar with each other.

"Could it be that she's Timothy's girlfriend?"

"No way, how could Timothy fall for someone whose background is a mystery, someone who doesn't even dare to show her face, especially after..."

Just moments ago, they had all seen Timothy single-handedly almost annihilate an army of skeletal warriors, and now many couldn't help but look up to him with admiration.

Especially the female disciples, who were reluctant to believe that Timothy could actually have a girlfriend.

After all, as long as Timothy was single, they all had a chance!

"Her hiding her face means she's not confident about her looks, so there's still hope for us!"

"Exactly, I want to see what this woman, who got a shoulder massage from Timothy, looks like. If she's not as pretty as me, maybe Timothy could massage my shoulders too."

"Dream on!"

"Hehe, first come, first served. While Timothy's still single, I'm not letting this opportunity slip by!"

The female disciples whispered among themselves, their confidence boosted by the presence of the woman who hid her face with a black robe.

If such a woman could elicit tenderness from Timothy, why couldn't they, with their beautiful faces, have a chance too?

"Ah!"

But just then, a piercing scream echoed from deep within the canyon.

Followed by sounds of terror and fear, coming from the disciples who had entered the canyon first.

Timothy's hand withdrew from Holy Maiden Aeliana's shoulder, and after exchanging a knowing look and nodding slightly, they both rushed towards the depths of the canyon.

Each sacred site had a long and storied history.

As a dense area of the Undead Sanctuary, the simplicity of what they had experienced so far in this secret realm felt too straightforward.

It was like the calm before a storm, the peaceful scene before them more like a harbinger of the tumultuous changes to come.

"What on earth happened?

If I remember correctly, the disciples up ahead were supposed to be accompanied by elders, how could they possibly be in danger?"

The dreadful scream had instantly shocked the practitioners who had just relaxed.

Several powerful elders and leaders hurried towards the depths without delay.

Everyone picked up their pace, no longer leisurely.

"This place is...

Who would have thought that such a place existed within the Undead Sanctuary!"

As the head disciple of a sect, Aria was the first to pass through the twisted space and enter deeper into the canyon.

But upon seeing the scene before her, her face turned pale instantly.

Everything before her was beyond anyone's imagination.

Above in the sky, a boundary line was merging two sides continuously.

One side was as red as blood, while the other was pure white.

Now, the crimson color was crossing the boundary, continuously flowing into the white sky.

The two skies merged and condensed like a vortex.

The air was filled with the stench of blood, nauseating to smell.

Not only that, but the path forward was lined with forty-nine white bones.

Each bone was shaped like a sword, with blood-red patterns flowing over them.

This was the path leading to the ultimate inheritance treasure of the forbidden land.

It was also an impassable chasm.

With every step past one of the forty-nine sword-shaped bones, one would endure the aura of countless fierce spirits and experience endless agony.

And those screams were coming from the practitioners who stepped onto the path of bones.

Many people managed to step over the first bone when they first entered this place.

However, those who underestimated this place often lost any chance to resist by the time they reached the fourth or fifth bone.

The pressure difference between each bone was as vast as a chasm.

Many were trapped, unable to move.

Whether they moved forward or backward, they faced an endless sense of deadly calm.

The air was thick with a bloody scent, trapping them completely.

The cries of ghosts echoed in their ears, as if thousands of blades were slicing through their bodies.

Pain and breakdown, the practitioners trapped on the path of bones faced extreme physical and mental crises.

Other than helplessly calling for help and screaming in pain, they had no idea how to escape.

"How can this path of bones be possible! Why does such a terrifying place even exist here!"

"Ah! Let me out, let me out!"

Desperate cries made those who hadn't stepped onto the path of bones stop in their tracks, none daring to move forward.

Because those trapped on the path weren't just the less experienced disciples.

Even...

At the seventh bone, a follower of the Radiant Monastery with a Mystic Core cultivation was deeply trapped in endless visions of corpses.

Wounds kept appearing on his body, and his eyes were filled with fear.

His faith completely shattered, the follower's eyes turned blood-red as he collapsed to the ground, looking ahead in terror, trying to retreat.

But he was immobilized, unable to move an inch.

At the sixteenth bone, the High Priest of the Allform Sect's Ocean's Gate realm was close to mental collapse.

Blood streamed from his ears, his body trembled uncontrollably, but he couldn't back out no matter what!

On the path of bones, whether ordinary disciples or those seen as strong by everyone, were now almost on the brink of death without exception!

What kind of secret realm of inheritance was this?

It was simply a hellish abyss that locked away lives!

Everyone couldn't help but look towards the blood-colored sky.

There, standing indifferently, was the Bone Sovereign, half his face a grim skeleton.

"It's rumored that within the Undead Sanctuary, there exists a place so terrifying that even the past Holy Masters dared not easily step into it.

Could it be that this is actually it!"

A trembling voice instantly sent a chill through the hearts of all the forces present.

No wonder the Undead Sanctuary had opened this secret realm without concern.

It turned out that the Undead Sanctuary had never worried about anyone being able to take the true inheritance treasure of the sacred land from here.

These forty-nine bones were the long path to the deepest part of the forbidden land.

But for them, it was also a path that could annihilate anyone.

This place was simply not something they could tread upon!

"Who dares to continue walking?"

At this moment, even faced with what might be the supreme inheritance treasure of a sacred land.

Forces from various sects, powerful individuals, countless disciples, all looked at each other with cold hearts, none daring to move.

But just then, a figure stepped out from the crowd.

Without any hesitation, they took a step onto the path of bones that everyone else only feared.
