This wasn't what Shi Yu wanted to hear, but she didn't say much about it.
If I reveal that I know her true background, she might contact Di Tian to kill me to silence me.
It's best for him to avoid provoking a powerhouse like Di Tian for now.
"Aren't you going to tell me your background?" Gu Yue was getting annoyed that the other party hadn't spoken for a while.
"I don't have any special background," Shi Yu said, not wanting to elaborate, and in fact, there wasn't much to say.
The true origin cannot be revealed, and the fabricated origin is too much of a concern.
With a "boom," Shi Yu suddenly approached Gu Yue and unleashed a palm strike.
Gu Yue reacted faster than he expected, actually managing to mobilize elements in his palm to clash with his spatial power.
The powerful impact forced Shi Yu backward, and then he vanished into thin air.
Gu Yue staggered backward, and before she could regain her balance, she felt a chill run down her back. This time, she didn't have time to react.
The eight spider spears pierced through Gu Yue's body, causing her to stiffen and cease her struggles. She only managed to glance back at Shi Yu.
"This matter won't just end like this," Gu Yue said before turning into energy and disappearing from the spot.
Shi Yu shrugged helplessly, knowing that Gu Yue probably held a grudge against him. He really didn't want to offend Gu Yue, after all, she was the Silver Dragon King, and behind her was a powerful figure like Di Tian who could be mobilized.
If she were to directly mobilize Di Tian to seek revenge, it would be truly fatal for her.
But there was no other way; if he wanted the external soul bone, he was bound to clash with them, and this was an inevitable outcome.
However, the situation isn't too bad.
The level of enmity between him and her should not be high enough for her to summon Di Tian.
She probably didn't want to contact Di Tian either, lest Di Tian's arrival be detrimental to Tang Wulin.
Thinking about this, Yu felt less pressured. As long as she could get through a few days safely, she would say goodbye to them and wouldn't need to worry too much.
Shi Yu stopped thinking about these things and focused his attention on the external soul bone in his hand.
In the era of the Dragon King Legend, even soul bones were elevated to the level of dragon bones.
Most soul bones cannot compare to dragon bones, but external soul bones are a different story.
This kind of soul bone is capable of growth and has unlimited potential. In the future, it may very well grow to surpass the dragon bone.
It was precisely because he valued the potential worth of this soul bone that he was so determined to obtain it.
Having already acquired the Eight Spider Lances Soul Bone, and now with the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear External Soul Bone, the combined benefit of these two external soul bones would undoubtedly be significant.
After looking around, he went to a lush, wooded spot, sat down, and began absorbing the dark gold dinosaur claw bear's right palm bone.
Absorbing soul bones in this Ascension Platform feels slightly different from absorbing them outside; it's much smoother.
"Should we stop them?" Li, the deputy tower master who had been watching the situation inside, was caught in a deep dilemma.
Inside the Spirit Ascension Platform, some soul beasts are manifestations of soul bone energy.
These soul bones are usually used to their fullest potential in the normal world and are on the verge of collapse. The idea is to extract their energy and integrate it into the Spirit Ascension Platform so that they can still play a role.
Of course, some Soul Masters retain Soul Bone Energy through certain methods when they die.
For example, the soul bone that Shi Yu is absorbing now is the soul bone energy that a soul master preserved in time when they died.
Normally, this soul bone would disintegrate and dissipate upon the death of the soul master, because it is an external soul bone.
He hadn't expected that these people would actually be able to kill the guardian soul beast of the first level of the Spirit Ascension Platform; this hadn't happened much in history.
This also presented him with a headache: should he stop Shi Yu from absorbing the soul bone in the end?
The external soul bone is a treasure, and he felt heartbroken to let Shi Yu absorb it like this.
If we don't let him absorb it, since the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear was killed, the soul bone energy will mostly dissipate and may not be able to condense again, which could lead to the soul bone being wasted, which would be even more of a pity.
Many soul beasts in the Ascension Platform can be resurrected after death, but some soul beasts are truly dead once they die and will not be resurrected. The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, manifested using soul bone energy, is one such soul beast.
The soul bone energy that loses its vessel, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, will be lost forever and cannot be reused.
"You're really getting off easy, but it's better for you than for those others, after all, you're a member of the Spirit Pagoda." In the end, Vice Tower Master Li did not choose to stop it.
She wanted Shi Yu to make more contributions to the East Sea Spirit Pagoda, to live up to the value of this soul bone.
"Knock, knock, knock..." A knocking sound rang out on the door.
"What is it?" Deputy Tower Master Li went to open the door and frowned slightly when he saw the Spirit Transmission Tower staff outside.
"Several students from Donghai City were maliciously murdered at the Ascension Platform, causing them mental trauma. Now their teacher wants our help to find the murderer," the staff member reported.
Deputy Tower Master Li glanced inside subconsciously, knowing that this was most likely referring to Shi Yu.
"Let them leave. Our Spirit Transmission Tower has an obligation to ensure that the privacy of everyone who enters the Spirit Ascension Platform is not leaked, and we will not assist them," Vice Tower Master Li sternly ordered.
"We've already said that, but they're quite forceful and insist on finding this person. That person is powerful and has a rather complicated background. We had no choice but to come to you, Deputy Tower Master Li," the staff member said helplessly.
Deputy Tower Master Li frowned; this seemed to be causing trouble within the Spirit Transmission Tower.
"I want to see just how arrogant these people are," Vice Tower Master Li decided anyway.
In a rest room of the Spirit Pagoda, Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, and Xu Xiaoyan all looked weak and lay listlessly on the sofa.
They suffered psychological trauma from being killed at the Ascension Platform and were quite depressed.
Gu Yue was also killed inside, but her condition was relatively better. She was currently taking care of Tang Wulin and was heartbroken.
Dressed in white, Wu Changkong stood aloof, his expression icy.
Vice Tower Master Li entered, surrounded by several staff members. He glanced at Tang Wulin and the others lying on the ground and immediately recognized them. It really was them.
Their gaze then fell on Wu Changkong, not underestimating him, for his extraordinary demeanor was evident from his bearing.
Although he only possesses the strength of a Soul Saint, he should not be underestimated.
"Our staff have made it very clear to you that it is our rule not to disclose the information of those who enter the Ascension Platform, and we cannot make an exception for you," Deputy Tower Master Li stated.
"I understand that, but this should be the normal procedure. That person maliciously stole my students' things in the Spirit Ascension Platform and even killed them, causing them mental trauma. Does your Spirit Transmission Tower intend to protect such a person?" Wu Changkong said coldly.
Knowing that the other party might be stronger than himself, he remained fearless and confronted them directly.
I hope you can add it to your favorites and vote for it. Your support is my greatest motivation. Thank you so much.
