Chapter 52
Two and a half hours later.
Shui Bing'er and the other girls stood on the rocks nearby, chattering away, while Shen Hanyu continued to frantically devour the life force of the Silver Emperor Falcon, completely unaffected by the sounds from the outside world.
Pure and abundant energy continuously flowed into Shen Hanyu's body, nourishing his meridians and causing his cultivation level to rise at a speed that was unimaginable under normal circumstances.
In a short while, she broke through the barrier of level sixty-seven and entered level sixty-eight in one fell swoop. Tianmeng silently made calculations in her sea of consciousness.
If Shen Hanyu absorbs all the energy except for the scattered energy of the Silver Emperor Sky Falcon, his cultivation level will probably reach around level 69. Although he probably won't be able to break through to Soul Saint, this will save Shen Hanyu half a year of full-time cultivation time. With this free time, he can do many things, and his previous plans can be implemented.
After absorbing the spirit ring, Shui Bing'er, standing to the side, sighed softly and looked at Shen Liuyu beside her, saying with some helplessness:
"Liu Yu, if your brother were to take out just a little bit of what he's hiding, even the Spirit Hall would probably go to great lengths to recruit him. I really don't know how he can be so monstrous..."
Shen Liuyu was also filled with confusion. After hesitating for a moment, she still spoke frankly:
"Would you believe me if I said I don't know him very well either?"
Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er both had strange expressions, and after a long while, they tentatively asked:
"real?"
Shen Liuyu was a little discouraged, but still nodded and said helplessly:
"My brother is a restless person. He ran away to train on his own for several years when he was six years old. He came back when he was eleven and went to Tiandou City again a few days later. Then he became more and more abnormal. As for what exactly happened in between, I really don't know anything."
The Shui sisters nodded thoughtfully, then asked with some curiosity:
"And what about you?"
Shen Liuyu pointed to herself with one finger and said somewhat embarrassedly:
"I really like being close to him, but he's never been home much since he was little. After I awakened my martial soul, all my soul rings were obtained by my brother taking me hunting. He also gave me a lot of precious treasures, including some that could improve my aptitude and evolve my martial soul. But I usually just wait for him to bring them to me. As for how they came about, I've never asked, and he never tells me."
As Shen Liuyu spoke, she glanced at Shen Hanyu, who was still absorbing the life force of the Silver Emperor Sky Falcon, paused, and then continued in a low voice:
"However, my brother has been much more mature than his peers since I was a child, but sometimes he may overthink things, so he is very good at disguising himself."
Shui Bing'er nodded and didn't say anything more.
Shui Yue'er, her cheeks flushed, looked at Shen Hanyu's profile and said with a touch of emotion:
"No matter what, Brother Yu is always so handsome, right, sister? Don't you think so?"
Shen Liuyu: ovo?
Shui Bing'er: Destroy it, I'm tired, I don't want this little sister anymore.
…………
Only after the Silver Emperor Falcon's corpse had completely turned into a dried-up corpse did Shen Hanyu let out a comfortable groan and slowly open his eyes.
Seeing the three women waiting quietly beside him, Shen Hanyu showed no surprise. He calmly stood up, looked at the three women, and said softly:
"Sorry, were you waiting long?"
All three women shook their heads. This amount of time was not long at all for a Soul Master; a light meditation could easily pass the time.
Shen Hanyu nodded, looking at the Silver Emperor Falcon's corpse, which had shrunk to more than half its original size, and revealed a look of surprise mixed with delight.
The Frostfire Spear sliced through a layer of skin, and a silver right arm soul bone was slowly drawn into Shen Hanyu's hand.
The right arm soul bone produced by the Silver Emperor Sky Falcon, which is over 50,000 years old, is no less valuable than a regular 100,000-year-old soul bone. Even though it only has one skill, it is still a top-quality soul bone.
Shen Hanyu couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Transmigrators really do have their perks. At least he had obtained quite a few soul bones from the soul beasts he had hunted, and every single one of them was of the highest quality.
Shui Bing'er and the other two girls were also drawn to the soul bone, and even their breath caught in their throats.
Shen Liuyu was alright. She already had a top-grade soul bone, and another equally high-quality Bloodthirsty Berserk Hurricane right leg bone was still gathering dust in her soul tool. Although she had some thoughts about this soul bone, she didn't value it that much.
Shui Bing'er, who was usually calm, reacted the most. She had already absorbed a soul ring from a Silver Emperor Falcon. If she were to absorb another top-grade soul bone from the same Silver Emperor Falcon, she would definitely be far ahead of her peers and could even catch up with Shen Liuyu's cultivation speed.
Moreover, the soul bone produced by the Silver Emperor Falcon is extremely suitable for the Ice Phoenix Martial Soul, making this soul bone incredibly attractive to her.
Shui Yue'er swallowed hard, her eyes filled with envy and longing, but without a trace of malice.
Shen Hanyu glanced at Shui Bing'er out of the corner of his eye, understood her reaction, and then directly put the soul bone into his storage soul tool.
Before Shui Bing'er has completely become one of his own, he wouldn't be foolish enough to hand over something so precious to her directly. Of course, this process will take some time.
As for what he had given before, it was completely harmless. He was willing to trust the other party's character this once. If the other party revealed these things, he could retaliate early and avoid causing himself even more trouble in the end.
This is a very simple test of human nature, requiring almost no cost. As for the result, Shen Hanyu is still very interested.
After finishing everything here, Shen Hanyu looked at the three women, smiled gently, and said:
"Let's go, everything's settled, we should head back."
The three women then came to their senses, nodded, and leaped out through the gap created by the Silver Emperor Sky Falcon, returning to the ground.
As Shen Hanyu was leaving, he looked back once more, then shattered the surrounding rock walls with a single shot, burying everything below. This was the last thing he could do.
Tianmeng let out a long sigh in the sea of consciousness, and said with some sympathy:
"What a pity. If these two Silver Emperor Falcons weren't so useful to Han Yu and this little girl, my kind nature wouldn't allow me to witness such a heartbreaking separation..."
Shen Hanyu was not moved at all, and after a long while he said:
"It's just a difference in perspective. They are soul beasts, and I am human. In each other's eyes, we are mortal enemies. If they could kill me today, I would have no complaints, since I am simply outmatched. But since they are the ones who die today, they have no one to blame but themselves. Don't overthink it. Most of the time, we should just mind our own business."
Tianmeng hummed in agreement and then fell silent. In its opinion, Shen Hanyu's words were indeed flawless.
P.S.: I went to Taierzhuang Ancient City today, then our whole family of sixteen had a meal, and afterwards we visited my grandparents' home. We're just getting back now. I squeezed this chapter in while on the road, so please bear with it... I'll take a closer look after I've had some rest.
P.S.: I have to say, Shandong has so many beautiful girls and handsome guys, and they're all so tall! I'm seriously envious. My eight-year-old niece was completely mesmerized by a handsome guy sitting in front of her today. Tsk tsk, she's showing signs of becoming a fangirl!
