Although Huangfu Yi had long been aware that a First-grade task wouldn't be as simple as catching a bird, he never imagined they'd demand a mere Foundation Establishment child like him to take on an Immortal bone relic from the era of Xuan Nu. That's just absurd...
However, there are many living Immortals in this world and even more dead ones. The Northern Icefield is littered with zombie remains; some, burdened with heavy resentment, naturally decompose. Even in the Central Plains, when the heavens unleash storms, lightning, and torrents of blood and flesh, it's not uncommon for a piece of Immortal bone to fall from the sky. It happens all too often.
So, guardian skeleton creatures like Rib King are nothing new to Huangfu Yi; their strength is manageable. After all, the dead cannot be revived. No matter how powerful they were in life, once flesh and core organs have decayed and meridians severed, even retaining just one percent of their former skills is considered fortunate.
