Peaceful Cultivation

Chapter 28 Peaceful Cultivation

Having resolved Shen Liuyu's matter, Shen Hanyu was able to fully and peacefully enter a state of cultivation.

He desperately needs to strengthen himself before the plot begins; strength is the key to survival in this chaotic world.

This era is not lacking in geniuses. Although the cultivation system is incomplete, many powerful soul masters have still managed to forge their own paths. This is a kind of innovation, and it is also a testament to the continuous development and progress of the times and history.

Sometimes Shen Hanyu wondered what this world would be like if it weren't a book, if the protagonists didn't have predetermined fates and weren't forcibly made to be love-obsessed.

It is an undeniable fact that the views on love held by both men and women in the Douluo Continent are generally problematic.

This distorted world is full of surprises and hope. Every day, new lives are born here, and countless lives slowly depart from this place.

He's already secured most of the major opportunities from the original story, except for a few minor ones which he can take later. As for the divine inheritance...

Let's leave that aside for now; it's too early to discuss.

…………

After spending two days cuddling with Shen Hanyu, Shen Liuyu reluctantly returned to Tianshui Academy.

As for her soul power and soul ring, Shen Hanyu was also having a headache. He couldn't find a solution no matter what he tried, so he had Tianmeng secretly leave a spiritual mark on Shen Liuyu's soul ring. This spiritual mark had no other function; it could only conceal the soul ring visually and perceptibly.

Based on Tianmeng's powerful spiritual strength, the effect of this mark can last for about five years. As long as the opponent's spiritual strength does not exceed that of Tianmeng, they will not be able to discover Shen Liuyu's true soul ring configuration.

As for the surge in soul power, that's easy to explain. Just make up some random medicinal herbs and rare treasures. Unless someone has ulterior motives, no one will delve into it too deeply.

Shen Hanyu also planned to stay in Element City for a while longer. If anyone dared to mess with his sister, he could reward their entire family with a Western tour voucher...

Before fully entering a state of cultivation, Shen Hanyu went to the city to buy a lot of food and some basic supplies, and also took a look at the little phoenix under the cover of Tianmeng's terrifying mental power.

Seeing that the other party was growing well, he was slightly relieved. Then, following Tianmeng's guidance, he went to a cave in a dense forest outside the city and began to devote himself to arduous cultivation.

He only told Shen Liuyu the location, so he wasn't worried about any problems. Besides, Tianmeng had a 24/7 early warning system, so the safety factor was maximized.

…………

The Frostfire Spear's ice attribute has reached its peak. Tianmeng once praised it highly, claiming that it was the strongest ice attribute he had seen from human soul masters in hundreds of thousands of years, and it was only one step away from the ultimate ice.

Following the last Ice and Fire Body Tempering, a slight change appeared on the Frostfire Spear. The spear, which was originally as clear as crystal, now had a red line running through it, with scorching energy flowing inside. However, this energy resonated with other ice-attribute energies, constantly circulating within it, which was quite peculiar.

Shen Hanyu had some guesses about this, but didn't want to say more. Anyway, it wasn't a bad thing.

Now, apart from cultivation, nothing can move his heart anymore.

Taking some time, Shen Hanyu and Tianmeng discussed gun techniques. To be honest, Shen Hanyu didn't know anything about gun techniques. Rather than saying that, it would be more accurate to say that he only pursued the ultimate attack power and strength. Gun techniques were in an awkward position in this fantasy world. Some were praised to the skies, while others were slandered to the point of being worthless.

Speaking of this, we inevitably face a direct problem: no matter how skilled you are, if your opponent is strong enough, you'll still just be a clown, unworthy of respect. In the face of absolute strength, skill becomes a new kind of clownish act...

The consequence of this is that without the influence of those external factors, his compatibility with the Frostfire Spear is extremely high. As long as he holds the Frostfire Spear, he will generate the most suitable attack method in accordance with his martial soul. This is the connection between him and his martial soul, which cannot be severed by any factor. This is the path that is most suitable for him.

Of course, Shen Hanyu didn't deny that some of his techniques were indeed quite outstanding, after all, this was a world where hidden weapons could shatter the heart of a god...

Of course, this is on the premise that you have the protagonist's halo; otherwise, I wouldn't recommend trying it...

If any negative consequences arise, the person who traveled through time is solely responsible...

……

The days spent meditating in the cave passed quickly. In just one month, with the help of the energy from the giant power bank, energy supply station, and the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, as well as the elemental power of heaven and earth, Shen Hanyu advanced to level fifty-seven as expected.

Not only did his cultivation level advance, but his meridians, which had previously suffered minor internal injuries, were also completely restored by Tianmeng's nourishment. His flesh and blood rejoiced, and his body was filled with joy.

With a better mood, his cultivation speed naturally increased, and three months passed in the blink of an eye. Shen Hanyu's cultivation level had already reached level fifty-eight.

This speed of improvement was unprecedented and unparalleled. Aside from the necessary time spent dealing with personal matters, Shen Hanyu devoted almost all his time to cultivation.

This state made Tianmeng sigh. After all, few humans can endure loneliness and solitude for a long time. Since entering the mountain, Shen Hanyu has spoken no more than three sentences a month. If it weren't for the fact that the other party's spirit is still full and active, Tianmeng would probably have suspected that the other party has a mental problem.

Time slowly passed, and the scenery of this forest began to change gradually.

It has changed from its initial deep green to its current withered yellow hue, as if it has undergone a transformation, exuding a unique scent of time, and the space seems to carry the traces of summer turning into autumn.

Shen Hanyu continued to cultivate in this dense forest as he pleased, but he found that his cultivation speed had slowed down, and even with Tianmeng's help, it was still not as good as before.

Shen Hanyu wasn't annoyed by this, and simply continued to cultivate while fighting the soul beasts.

Deep within this dense forest dwell three massive earth bears, each 20,000 years old. Shen Hanyu's opponents are sometimes one of them, sometimes two, and sometimes he has to face a three-way attack from all three brothers.

Even though the opponent was a bit younger, their teamwork was excellent, and they were quick-witted. They seemed to have realized that Shen Hanyu only wanted to spar with them, not kill them...

These three soul beasts had completely given up. Every day, after eating and drinking their fill, they would come to fight Shen Hanyu. Of course, every time, they went all out, without holding back at all.

Even after 20,000 years, the intelligence of the soul beasts is still not very high, but perhaps they have developed habitual thinking in their minds. In any case, they do not feel disgusted by sparring with Shen Hanyu, and Shen Hanyu is naturally more than happy to do so.

Tianmeng seemed to have noticed Shen Hanyu's unusual state and rarely spoke to him, only occasionally offering a few simple words of advice before continuing its work in the Sea of ​​Spirit.

It has a good understanding of Shen Hanyu, so it doesn't need to worry about whether there will be any major problems if the other party continues like this.

What it wants to do now is to do everything in its power to help the other party become a god, and then fulfill its long-held dream... that is, to have Hyotei call it "Tenmu-nii" in a sweet voice...

P.S.: I almost died from the baijiu cap...
