Accompanying Shen Han Yu's movements, a trace of bloodthirsty killing intent appeared in the enormous blood-red pupils of the Abyss Ice Demon Jiao. It seemed to feel none of the terrifying soul power surging within Shen Han Yu's body...
Just as the Snow Empress had said, this creature had, for some unknown reason, taken on the pollution of this place and grown powerful as a result. But as its strength increased, its spiritual intelligence continued to drain away. It had lost any reverence or fear toward the powerful, replaced instead by frenzied, bloodthirsty killing intent.
If this thing truly broke through the ten-thousand-year barrier and its bloodline stepped into the true dragon level, it would indeed be no small disaster for the Extreme North.
However, now the great benevolent Shen was about to bring blessings to the entire Extreme North, acting on behalf of heaven to slay this evil soul beast...
...
Accompanied by the sound of flesh tearing and an incomparably sharp, piercing scream, Shen Han Yu lightly smiled as he shook off the blood that had accidentally gotten on his hand, then slowly stood up and beckoned the Snow Empress to bring the two girls over.
The little phoenix hopped down from Shen Liu Yu's head, soared through the air midway, and finally landed accurately on Shen Han Yu's shoulder.
"Master, you're so amazing..."
The little one rubbed against Shen Han Yu, then said with a giggle.
Shen Han Yu rubbed the little one's head and said somewhat amusedly:
"With my strength, if I still had to exchange more than a couple of moves with something of this level, I might as well reincarnate as a pig and live carefree..."
The Snow Empress descended slowly with Shui Bing'er and Shen Liu Yu, casting a somewhat sympathetic glance at the Abyss Ice Demon Jiao on the ground, which was trembling wildly from intense pain.
Shen Han Yu smiled as he pinched Shui Bing'er's cheek, then said:
"A seventy-thousand-year Abyss Ice Demon Jiao, this can be considered your current highest acceptable limit. However, the energy inside this thing is so vast that even I feel a bit surprised..."
"The absorption process later might be a little painful, but overall, the problem isn't too big. Afterward, Xue'er and I will keep watch over your condition at all times..."
Shui Bing'er nodded seriously and said:
"Rest assured. Since I said I would keep up with your pace, how could this little pain possibly stop me..."
Shen Han Yu nodded in gratification, then stepped aside.
Accompanied by a black soul ring streaked with faint, strange purple-red, slowly rising from the Abyss Ice Demon Jiao's corpse, Shui Bing'er slowly relaxed her tense mind, trying her best to return to peak condition. Shen Han Yu gently placed his hand on Shui Bing'er's shoulder and channeled some pure soul power into her.
As the soul ring slowly descended from above and enveloped Shui Bing'er's body, almost everyone simultaneously heard a sharp roar filled with intense resentment. Immediately after, Shui Bing'er's body shuddered violently, her aura around her became unstable, and her face gradually turned pale...
The little phoenix, which had once again "built its nest" on top of Shen Liu Yu's head, yawned and said:
"Looks like this little bug is full of resentment. Even after death, it refuses to rest in peace and even wants to drag someone down with it..."
Shen Liu Yu, meanwhile, looked at Shen Han Yu and the Snow Empress with a face full of pleading, hoping they would remove this silly bird from her head.
Shen Han Yu and the Snow Empress both selectively ignored Shen Liu Yu's pleading gaze. After observing Shui Bing'er's condition for a while, they slightly relaxed.
After the group waited for a moment, the Snow Empress shifted her gaze to the humanoid corpse bones, then tugged at Shen Han Yu's hand and said softly:
"How should we handle this corpse? If we simply bury it, I'm afraid we still won't be able to completely resolve the source of all this..."
Shen Han Yu pondered for a moment, then his eyes lit up as he said:
"Since it's such a hassle to deal with, let's just take it with us. I think this corpse can still give off its last remaining warmth later…"
The Snow Empress was slightly stunned, then slowly nodded.
Although she didn't know exactly what Shen Han Yu planned to do, she understood his character. If he decided to do this, he must have his own reasons. He would never do something without cause...
Beside them, Shen Liu Yu was chatting idly with the little phoenix on her head. Both of them looked somewhat drowsy.
This puzzled Shen Han Yu a little. It was understandable that Shen Liu Yu felt sleepy after consuming a large amount of soul power and physical strength earlier, but the little phoenix had slept in the divine artifact for who knows how long. After awakening, it hadn't been long before it went back to sleeping inside Shen Han Yu's soul tool. Now it was still in a drowsy state...
Could sleeping too much and too long really cause someone to always want to sleep...?
...
After pushing the strange thought out of his mind, Shen Han Yu began to tackle the problem before him.
The corpse bones on the altar appeared almost humanoid, but in reality, the skeleton was much larger, with many strange protrusions. The snow-white bones were covered in all sorts of bizarre patterns. Although not a trace of flesh remained, the sound of dripping water still kept coming from below.
Shen Han Yu extended one hand slowly toward the seemingly harmless corpse bones. Just as he was about to touch it, the originally corpse suddenly trembled violently. Then its withered bony palm abruptly shot out toward Shen Han Yu.
Shen Han Yu's gaze darkened slightly. He then smashed down with a fist, colliding with the strange corpse's white, bony palm.
Accompanied by a deafening "boom," terrifying sound waves swept outward. The Snow Empress's figure swiftly vanished, reappearing beside Shen Liu Yu and Shui Bing'er, who was still absorbing the soul ring. Even the drowsy little phoenix jolted awake from the scare.
As the stirred-up dust dispersed, neither Shen Han Yu nor the corpse had moved much. But the difference was that faint cracks had appeared on the corpse's arm; clearly, in that collision just now, it had come out on the losing end.
"Speak. What kind of ghost thing crawled here from which plane? Fallen for so long, yet still retaining a remnant will..."
Shen Han Yu said indifferently. At the same time, he increased the force in his hand. The next moment, the originally steady-as-a-mountain corpse was directly flung away by Shen Han Yu, crashing heavily into the distant stone wall.
A mechanical, hoarse voice rang out from nowhere, muffled and eerie, yet seeming to pierce straight into the heart, carrying a bewitching demonic power.
"Eat... eat... flesh..."
Under everyone's astonished gazes, the damaged corpse slowly stood up. Then it let out a terrifying, long howl. Instantly, disturbances erupted one after another from the surrounding continuous passages and valleys. Countless pollution-tainted soul beasts rushed madly in this direction. Before long, they had filled the open space around the corpse bones, and judging from the angry roars still coming from afar, even more soul beasts were continuously rushing over...
The corpse bones threw its head back and roared furiously, then suddenly swung both arms, slaughtering the surrounding infected soul beasts like a killing machine, devouring their souls along with all their flesh...
In just a short moment, the surroundings had completely turned into a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. The unabsorbed blood formed a viscous river of blood that slowly flowed, giving off a pungent, nauseating stench.
And atop the mountain-like pile of white bones, a bizarre six-legged creature suddenly drilled out from within. Its human-like face looked extremely awkward, no matter how one looked at it. Sticky liquid covered various parts of its body, while countless octopus-like tentacles dangled from its lower body. Its empty eyes turned scarlet the instant they saw Shen Han Yu, then it let out an angry roar toward him, causing even the surrounding space to become somewhat unstable from the force of the shout...
