After some rest.
The group leaned against each other on the open ground, their faces glowing with an indescribable radiance and excitement.
"Aunt Shui, you have no idea, one time, Yue'er almost got flattened into a Yue'er pancake by that huge guy. Luckily, I pulled her away fast enough…"
Shen Liuyu joked with a smile.
Shui Ningbing wasn't angry at all; she smiled as she looked at Shui Yue'er, who was practically collapsed on the ground from exhaustion.
Shui Yue'er stubbornly straightened up a little and loudly declared:
"Where was that! It was clearly Sister Liuyu, this big dummy, who tripped over a rock. I was about to run left, but she dragged me, and we both fell to the right instead…"
Hearing this, everyone burst into laughter. Shen Liuyu fiercely glared at Shui Yue'er.
Shui Yue'er glared right back without backing down, but the next second, drained of strength, she slumped back into Shui Bing'er's arms.
"This time, everyone performed outstandingly."
Shen Hanyu also smiled and praised them. Although the Ice Devil Titan had already been injured and was only seven thousand years old, its strength was still comparable to many ten-thousand-year soul beasts.
The three girls, one Great Soul Master, one Soul Elder, and one Soul Ancestor, had managed to coordinate and hold out for so long, ultimately killing it in the process. That was already an extremely impressive achievement.
Shui Bing'er covered her mouth and chuckled, while unusually taking the initiative to chat with Shen Hanyu:
"Your soul ring configuration…"
Shen Hanyu waved his hand, somewhat helplessly saying:
"I'm such a genius that I can even help you all absorb soul rings beyond your level. So me absorbing a few hundred-thousand-year soul rings is perfectly reasonable, right?"
The four exchanged glances, looking at Shen Hanyu as if he were a monster.
"Brother, then why is your seventh soul ring white?"
Shen Liuyu asked the question everyone was curious about.
Shen Hanyu pinched Shen Liuyu's cheek and said:
"Silly, that's platinum-colored. It's from the million-year soul beast, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm…"
"A million-year soul ring!"
The four were stunned at first, then suddenly exclaimed in shock.
Shen Hanyu nodded, not feeling that revealing these things to them now was too early.
At the same time, in his mental sea, Tian Meng was wailing:
"Hanyu… Brother Yu… hurry and let me out to show off a bit, I beg you… I've wanted to go out and play for so long…"
Shen Hanyu amusedly released the restriction on his mental sea. A piece of ice crystal from Shen Hanyu's soul guide was drawn over, and Tian Meng once again mimicked creating a body out of mental power.
The four girls curiously watched the suddenly appearing Tian Meng. Shen Liuyu even reached out curiously to touch it.
"Ahem…"
"I am the supreme, most benevolent, and strongest ancestor among soul beasts—the king of kings in the soul beast world, the most handsome guy in the Far North, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm who possesses both handsomeness and wisdom."
Tian Meng finally got to recite his boasting lines in full, squinting slightly as he waited for everyone's gasps of amazement.
The four looked at each other, then at the adorable little ice silkworm on Shen Hanyu's shoulder, and swarmed forward, directly picking Tian Meng up and playing with it in their hands.
After being cleansed by the Ice God inheritance token, Tian Meng's originally plump and round body had become even more beautiful, translucent like jade, with an exceptionally pleasant texture. Its cute and petite appearance was naturally very appealing to girls.
Tian Meng suddenly felt the world spinning. When it finally managed to open its eyes, it saw four pairs of eyes staring at it like hungry tigers.
"Um… aren't you all afraid of me?"
Tian Meng asked, steeling itself.
The four were somewhat baffled. Shui Ningbing even teased with a smile:
"You don't even look as intimidating as a regular ten-year soul beast…"
Tian Meng instantly became depressed, looking utterly dejected.
Shen Hanyu couldn't help but find it funny and stopped paying attention to the interaction between the four girls and Tian Meng, instead going to examine the four Ice Devil Titan corpses.
After carefully inspecting the thirty-thousand-year and seventy-thousand-year Ice Devil Titans and finding no soul bones, just as Shen Hanyu was about to give up hope,
The ninety-thousand-year-old Ice Devil Titan's body made him pause. Tearing through the annoying fur and flesh, a grayish-white torso-type soul bone floated into Shen Hanyu's hand.
Ninety-thousand-year Ice Devil Titan torso soul bone!
Shen Hanyu was surprised and delighted. The Ice Devil Titan's physical strength was obvious to the eye, and a soul bone from a soul beast so specialized in power was naturally extremely powerful, more precious than many hundred-thousand-year soul bones. It could be called a rare treasure.
Of course, this rare treasure had nothing to do with the little carrot head.
The four girls and Tian Meng were also drawn over. Tian Meng flashed and appeared on Shen Hanyu's shoulder, clicking its tongue in admiration:
"Hanyu, after following you for so long, your luck really is as good as ever."
The four girls also gazed fervently at this torso soul bone, one of the six most precious soul bones in the body.
Shen Hanyu thought for a moment, then handed the soul bone to Shui Ningbing.
Shui Ningbing was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly waved her hands:
"What are you doing! Such a precious soul bone, you could give it to any of the three girls. Why give it to me…"
Shen Hanyu helplessly shrugged and said:
"Aunt Shui, the weakest soul bone on my body is over a hundred thousand years, and the strongest has reached a million years. I'm only missing a torso bone now, but for various reasons, I'll have to hunt quite a few hundred-thousand-year-old soul beasts and even ferocious beasts later. When soul bones drop, then I won't be able to absorb them myself, so they'll only go to Liuyu and the others. Don't worry, I'm not short on soul bones. Besides…"
"Aunt Shui, you wouldn't want the three of them to absorb this 'trash' soul bone and then regret it for life when they encounter better options later, right?"
In the end, Shui Ningbing accepted the soul bone with tears in her eyes, looking at Shen Hanyu with a gaze so gentle it was like Qin Yi's. Shui Bing'er inexplicably felt a chill, somehow sensing that her little aunt was already plotting something bad.
Shui Ningbing's strength had soared in recent years; she was now a level 87 Soul Douluo and almost certain to break through to Titled Douluo. Giving her this ninety-thousand-year torso bone now would at least raise her soul power to level 89. Then, with a little help from Shen Hanyu, this trip could also conveniently secure her ninth soul ring, saving another trip later. Simply perfect.
Shen Hanyu rummaged a bit more when suddenly he raised his head sharply. Everyone quickly gathered around. In Shen Hanyu's hand was unmistakably another soul bone, this one palm-shaped.
Shui Ningbing's mind raced, and she finally exclaimed:
"This is an external spirit bone!"
Shui Bing'er and the other three girls also cried out in shock. As top students, how could they not know the rarity and importance of an external spirit bone?
Shen Hanyu couldn't help smacking his lips, quietly marveling at his own good luck.
In the end, Shen Hanyu gave the Ice Devil Titan's right palm external spirit bone to Shen Liuyu. Though the others were envious, none felt it was undeserved; they had already realized that the benefits of being close to Shen Hanyu far exceeded a single external spirit bone.
The only downside was perhaps that this external spirit bone came from the mere seven-thousand-year Ice Devil Titan, so its age was a bit low.
Shen Liuyu hugged the soul bone and joyfully acted spoiled with Shen Hanyu for quite a while. Even as the group left the area, the smile on Shen Liuyu's face remained uncontrollable…
