Time flies like an arrow; two years later...

In a small courtyard in the west of Tiandou City, a handsome young man dressed in a white robe, with long purple-blue hair, was lounging on a deck chair, attended by two beautiful maids.

A maid cut seasonal fruits into pieces and fed them to Shen Hanyu one by one with her delicate fingers. Shen Hanyu accepted them all and ate them all.

Another maid gently fanned Shen Hanyu with a bamboo fan, creating a cool breeze.

To understand why he lives such a comfortable and decadent life, we must talk about what he has experienced in the past two years.

After arriving in Tiandou City, he found that the plot was still far off, so he bought a small house in the west of the city and bought two maids from a nearby auction house. He then began to live a leisurely life. Perhaps because he was living too comfortably, his soul power increased at a slower pace.

In the past two years, almost nothing major has happened to him. The security in Tiandou City is good, so there is no room for him to make a move. The city is almost entirely populated by nobles and their children, and there are no particularly outstanding geniuses.

Shen Hanyu originally planned to go to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, but after thinking about it, he decided to go after breaking through to the Soul King level.

After all, he was confident that he could persuade Dugu Bo and successfully establish a friendship with this old Bi Deng.

After all, those with powerful backgrounds can simply conquer their opponents with force, but someone like him, who started from humble beginnings, can only rely on strategy…

Moreover, he had no ill will or negative opinion towards Dugu Bo. Although the other party was ruthless and cold-hearted, once they became friends, he was completely trustworthy.

The other person's loyal and grateful nature is quite endearing.

Most importantly, he can't beat Dugu Bo right now...

It's all tears when I talk about it...

Although he had been diligently cultivating for almost two years and had reached level 49, Shen Hanyu had absolutely no confidence in facing a Title Douluo who had mastered the art of poison.

Although his cultivation speed was somewhat cheat-like, he wasn't one of those transmigrators with systems, those oddballs who could defeat titled beings or even god kings—it was terrifying, wasn't it?

The leisurely afternoon passed quickly. Shen Hanyu yawned, pinched the maid Xiaoyue who was feeding him fruit, making her blush shyly. Then Shen Hanyu laughed and went out the door. He had a feeling that he would break through to Soul King at the earliest tonight, or at the latest within the next three days, and become the youngest Soul King in history!

A thirteen-year-old Soul King is about to be born!

………………

Two days later.

Shen Hanyu appeared in Sunset Forest. Two years had passed, and he had grown taller. He was now at least 1.8 meters tall. Any taller wouldn't be good, and 1.7 meters seemed a bit short. 1.8 meters was the most suitable...

Because of large-scale hunting, high-level soul beasts are rarely seen in Sunset Forest. Most of them are ordinary soul beasts with low lifespans, generally under 50,000 years.

Shen Hanyu didn't know the exact direction, so he could only rely on his intuition to move forward. After all, Sunset Forest wasn't very big, and he would eventually find it if he had the patience.

Along the way, apart from casually killing a few troublesome thousand-year-old soul beasts, Shen Hanyu encountered almost no powerful soul beasts.

As they crossed a stream, a huge blackish-purple spider web descended from the sky. Shen Hanyu reacted quickly, twirling his Frost Heaven Spear and tearing through the tough web.

Shen Hanyu frowned and looked up, but found nothing unusual, as if nothing had happened. However, a strange stench in the air clearly told him that something was definitely watching him.

As Shen Hanyu scanned his surroundings with his mental energy, his brows suddenly relaxed. Then, the spear in his hand transformed into a streak of light and plunged into the ground not far away. As purple blood gushed out, a piercing roar came from the ground. Then, a huge figure burst out of the earth, and the Frost Heaven Spear stuck in his back was shaken off and returned to Shen Hanyu's hand.

"Oh? A ten-thousand-year-old cave spider? Finally, something decent has arrived."

Shen Hanyu curled his lips, and then the blade of the Frost Sky Spear emitted a cold aura as he fiercely stabbed the Cave Demon Spider.

Both the Cave Spider and the Human-Faced Demon Pearl are kings among spider-type soul beasts. Not only are they powerful, but their venom is also extremely troublesome (Human-Faced Demon Spider). Moreover, both of these soul beasts are highly intelligent and know how to hide and ambush. They belong to a soul beast race that has no martial virtue.

The Frostfire Spear traced graceful curves in the air, its slender shaft as elegant and refined as jade, its crystal-white blade incredibly sharp, radiating a chilling killing intent.

The Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Cave Demon Pearl is not large; compared to the Human-Faced Demon Pearl, it is extremely small. However, it excels in agility. With its superior vision from multiple eyes and its quick thinking, it managed to dodge multiple attacks from the Frost Sky Spear.

Shen Hanyu was not in a hurry at all. He had used a lot of strength in that last shot. The icy killing intent of the Frost Heaven Spear had already entered the internal organs of the Earth Demon Pearl. If he continued to fight like this, only the opponent would die. Even if the opponent was at his peak, he could still take him down with a little effort.

Sure enough, as time went by, the cave spider's originally ferocious killing intent had almost disappeared, and its once superb speed had slowed down, making it look like it was suffering from kidney deficiency.

Shen Hanyu chuckled, and his second spirit ring lit up beneath his feet.

"Second Soul Skill! Ice Flame!"

This is a soul skill born from an Ice Flame Dragon with 2,700 years of cultivation! Once used, its power and attack increase by 100%. At the same time, the Frost Sky Spear is imbued with flames from the Ice Flame Dragon, a special ultra-low temperature flame with extremely strong adhesion. The soul skill can last for two and a half minutes. If the flames are not removed by special means, they will continue to absorb soul power from the host and burn.

With a single thrust of the spear, the ancient cave spider perished!

As the blue flames slowly ignited, Shen Hanyu was about to move when he suddenly froze.

Quickly pry open the brain of the cave spider, and a skull radiating a black glow suddenly appears!

"Damn it! Why did it have to be a skull?! And with your stats, which one am I supposed to give it to?"

Shen Hanyu didn't know whether to call himself lucky or unlucky. Adding to that the right leg bone he'd forgotten to give to his younger sister from the soul tool, he now possessed two top-tier, ten-thousand-year-old soul bones…

But this skull happened to come from a cave spider, and the skill it came with was most likely one of the cave spider's two innate skills: stealth and web trapping...

These two skills are quite suitable for control-type Soul Masters, but they become somewhat useless for offensive-type Soul Masters if they absorb too much of them…

After much deliberation, Shen Hanyu looked at the complete skull before him and made a decision that went against his ancestors' wishes: let it gather dust in the soul tool...

If all else fails, I'll have Dugu Bo sell his granddaughter to me, and then I'll give this soul bone to Dugu Yan.

Of course, if Dugu Bo could offer a suitable price, Shen Hanyu would not let this soul bone rot in his hands.

As for giving it away for free, that's impossible, absolutely impossible!

As for the so-called "immortal herb," ​​well, Dugu Bo doesn't know its uses anyway. He'll just leave a couple for the grandfather and grandson; otherwise, it would be a bit too much...

Shen, the kind, handsome, and saintly man, is now online!
