Once a person has a goal, even dull and monotonous times can unexpectedly become interesting. Shen Hanyu was probably in such a state.
Shen Hanyu's soul power had already reached the peak of level 89, just one step away from the Title Douluo realm that countless people dreamed of.
But it was precisely this one step that had blocked the path of countless others.
In doing anything, often the first step and the last step are the most difficult, and soul power cultivation is no exception.
However, Shen Hanyu was not in a hurry to break through. In his view, his soul power cultivation was flawless, with almost no shortcomings to be found, but the only area with imperfections was his state of mind.
This was closely related to his own conflicting personality. There was a deep chasm between what was considered light and darkness in his character, as if it were split in two. He had his own unique understanding of these matters, which also caused him to appear extremely contradictory in handling certain things.
After entering the Title Douluo realm, advancing soul power levels further no longer relied on potential and talent alone; it required sufficient opportunities and a suitable state of mind in coordination with the above two essential conditions.
Shen Hanyu was someone who pursued perfection. Using a few extra months to thoroughly see himself clearly was, in his opinion, very necessary.
However, he would not waste too much time on these matters. Everything had to pursue efficiency. He was still very young; even if his mentality was more mature, this did not affect the terrifying potential within him. Instead, it allowed him to thrive like a fish in water.
During this period, Shen Hanyu was almost always in a special state and rarely communicated with outsiders. As clever as the girls were, they knew that Shen Hanyu was not convenient to disturb lately and had not come to bother him much for the past two or three months.
As time slowly passed, the aura on Shen Hanyu's body grew increasingly calm. Every inch of flesh and blood in his body seemed to relax, soul power circulating through several acupoints. An invisible fluctuation surged in the surrounding space like ocean waves, creating conditions for impacting the final barrier.
If an outsider entered this room at this moment, they would surely be astonished by Shen Hanyu's current state. He was simply sitting there cross-legged in silence, yet he seemed to have merged completely with the entire heaven and earth. In the world, his existence could not be sensed at all, yet this person undeniably existed.
This was an almost perfect state. With each breath Shen Hanyu took, a faint ice-blue chill slowly enveloped the room. A magnificent spear radiating sharp killing intent floated in front of him. Wisps of red light glimmered on its sharp blade. The five soul bones throughout his body were simultaneously drawn in, soul powers of various colors resonating together, guiding Shen Hanyu into a brand-new level...
...
Under the evergreen tree.
Shui Ningbing was idly chatting with the three girls, somewhat bored. While Shen Hanyu was in seclusion, they would still occasionally come to check on his condition. This had continued for two or three months now.
"Sigh, when do you think my brother will come out of seclusion?"
Shen Liuyu propped her chin with one hand while idly playing with a piece of ice crystal in the other.
Shui Yue'er also seemed a bit listless. During this time, aside from studying, it was just fighting, nearly breaking her fragile spirit.
Shui Ningbing calmly sipped some juice and yawned. Behind her, Shui Bing'er was helplessly massaging her shoulders.
"What's the rush? Maybe little Yu will give us another surprise this time."
Shui Ningbing said lazily.
She had been in a great mood lately. The academy had received another round of funding from Shen Hanyu's parents, and the outstanding performances of Shui Bing'er and the girls in the spirit fighting arena had attracted sponsorship from quite a few wealthy merchants. Most of the academy's major issues had been more or less resolved. As the boss, she had become much more relaxed, delegating matters to the teachers below while focusing on training the few girls.
Shen Liuyu and Shui Yue'er let out an "oh," their eyelids growing heavy. Summer had arrived, and they felt inexplicably drowsy all day long.
The surroundings gradually quieted down, leaving only the tireless cicadas still chirping. Suddenly, a muffled boom rang out, completely shattering the drowsiness of the girls.
"What was that?"
Shen Liuyu was a bit dazed, rubbing her eyes. Her gaze swept around before finally settling on the room where Shen Hanyu was in seclusion.
"It should be little Yu coming out of seclusion. But... why is this aura so strong..."
Shui Ningbing was also somewhat stunned. Here, aside from Shen Hanyu, she had the highest strength, so her perception was naturally the sharpest.
Although Shen Hanyu had controlled his aura extremely well, Shui Ningbing still sensed a soul power fluctuation that could steadily suppress her. At the same time, the martial soul within her body began to riot uncontrollably, as if it had encountered something terrifying and instinctively wanted to submit.
Shui Bing'er pursed her lips, her hands unconsciously twisting together. The Ice Phoenix within her was trembling in fear, and her soul power was almost completely suppressed, making her feel somewhat suffocated.
At the same moment, the soul power on Shen Hanyu's body began to circulate rapidly. In the next instant, it seemed to reach its peak. Shen Hanyu abruptly opened his eyes. The barrier was easily shattered, and in this moment, Shen Hanyu leaped into the Title Douluo realm!
The ice-blue bead located in Shen Hanyu's mental sea suddenly radiated brilliant light, completely illuminating his mental sea.
The illuminated areas slowly began to sublimate. Tian Meng let out a comfortable moan, gazing reverently at the bead high in the sky.
The Ice Frost Snake Demon was also nourished by this energy, slowly opening its eyes. It looked at the ice-blue bead in astonishment.
Shen Hanyu's body trembled. A terrifying energy suddenly surged into his body, circulating through his meridians before gradually calming down.
Shen Hanyu did not know why this bead representing the Ice God's inheritance had shown no reaction in his mental sea for so long, yet it reacted precisely after his breakthrough to Title Douluo, and gave him such an enormous reward all at once.
After the sublimation just now, his mental sea was one step closer to truly transforming into an inner world. His mental strength had skyrocketed, and even the hidden injuries accumulated in his body were healed by this energy in one go, restoring him to his peak state.
Opening his eyes once more, Shen Hanyu's originally deep pupils slowly changed, finally turning into pure ice-blue.
After completing these things, the bead once again lost its luster, quietly floating above the mental sea as if nothing had happened.
Tian Meng and the Ice Frost Snake Demon looked at each other, their eyes filled with the purest joy. Now that Shen Hanyu had truly received the approval of the Ice God's inheritance, as partners inseparable from him, they were the greatest beneficiaries besides Shen Hanyu himself.
