Shen Han wore an expression of seriousness, ticulously studying the sentences within.
Each line seed to carry a trace of profound truth of the Dao.
Even more mysteriously, the small characters on the wall ford by snake bodies were still incessantly twisting.
Gazing at the words on the wall, they appeared sowhat terrifying and frightening.
Shen Han read word by word downwards, and in a trance, the small snakes forming the characters on the wall seed to rise into the air.
The snake bodies flew, directly pouncing onto him.
Shen Han wanted to dodge, but his body felt as if it were bound, his feet heavy beyond asure, difficult to move.
The small snake that had pounced onto him opened its venomous fangs and bit down.
In an instant, a fierce stabbing pain struck.
Venom seeped from the fangs, perating into his bone marrow and blood vessels.
Shen Han felt that the venom was terrifyingly potent, the bite bringing unbearable pain.
It was like thorns encircling under his skin.
Is this what it ans to be intertwined with thorns...
The entire body seed to have no place that wasn’t in pain!
Clenching his teeth, Shen Han could feel the clarity of this pain.
Compared to the previous pain during Bone Tempering, calling it ten tis more painful was no exaggeration.
Even his fingertips felt as if nurous needles were piercing outward from within.
Because of the pain, Shen Han had begun to sweat profusely, soaking his clothes.
His skin also turned bright red.
A quarter of an hour, half an hour.
The pain showed no sign of subsiding, while the small snakes kept biting him randomly.
The rows of small holes on his body were all bitten by these beasts.
Fortunately, extracting entries, as well as the "Gen Mountain Secret Technique" and "Celestial Dao Sword Montum", could significantly enhance Spiritual Power.
Because his ntal Telekinesis was strong enough, and he had reached Sixth Grade, he didn’t pass out.
Enduring like this for half a two-hour period, the original pain seed to have alleviated a lot.
Previously, Shen Han felt his body was entangled with circles of thorns.
Even moving would cause imasurable stinging pain throughout his body.
But after this half a two-hour period, perhaps having accustod to the severe pain, he felt he could endure it.
Another half a two-hour period later, the severe pain all over his body further weakened significantly.
It seed to beco bearable.
Attempting to step forward.
His feet felt as though they were bound with iron chains weighing thousands of pounds, still difficult to move.
Clenching his teeth, Shen Han exerted effort to step forward.
With one step forward, suddenly he beca clear-headed.
In front of him was still that piece of wall, with characters ford by small snakes, still existing...
Shen Han rubbed his eyes and then rolled up his sleeves.
On his arm, on his shoulder, where were the small holes bitten by snakes?
Other than so sweat stains, there were no other marks on his body at all.
For the past two-hour period, he had fallen into an Illusion Realm!
The body that had previously endured the severe pain now felt unspeakably relieved.
Raising his gaze again toward the wall.
"Unceasing Skill..."
The characters ford by the small snakes turned out to be a Body-Protecting Technique.
He recorded all the characters on the wall, then reinserted the entry labeled "Conceal & Obfuscate".
After returning to the spacious secret chamber, he removed the entry labeled "Damaged".
The original stone door also resealed the secret chamber.
Though not as solid as before, it was hidden enough.
After retreating outside, Shen Han continued cultivating in the Secret Realm, and rested quietly.
The technique he had just obtained was called "Unceasing Skill".
It was a type of Body-Protecting Technique.
Speaking of which, this might be the most peculiar cultivation technique he had encountered.
The "Celestial Dao Sword Montum" always gave him so initiative, allowing him to enter consciousness and cultivate it when he wished.
But the "Unceasing Skill" offered no choice, pulling him directly into the Illusion Realm.
Luckily, his ntal Telekinesis was fairly strong, preventing him from being overwheld by the severe pain within the environnt.
Holding the transcription of the cultivation technique in hand, he was more vigilant compared to before when reading it.
After thoroughly reading the technique, Shen Han finally gained so understanding of this Body-Protecting Technique.
This Body-Protecting Technique had two advantages.
The first was its resistance to poison, perhaps due to the technique’s nurous intricate connections with snakes, making it extrely poison-resistant.
The second was its body-protection capability.
Despite being called protection, it was actually a powerful recovery ability.
Quick recovery to resist injuries’ intrusion.
In the Secret Realm, Shen Han closed his eyes, letting his consciousness fall into the cognitive sea.
With the "Gen Mountain Secret Technique" being such an enigmatic technique, he could wholeheartedly test the efficacy of this Body-Protecting Technique...
At Xiaoyao Peak.
After canceling the engagent with Shen Han, Su Jinyu went to Xiaoyao Peak to cultivate.
As Shi Yuezhu’s disciple, she naturally resided at Moon Bamboo Peak.
Su Jinyu had imnse respect for her master.
Whatever Shi Yuezhu said, she would follow, more obedient than to her family elders.
But afterward, Su Jinyu had so argunts with her master.
The point of contention was Shen Han.
She didn’t understand why her master kept speaking positively about Shen Han.
The praise in his words led Su Jinyu to a sense of illusion.
This illusion was that Shen Han seed more outstanding than her.
With opposing opinions, Su Jinyu beca slyer, avoiding ntioning Shen Han to her master.
After a slightly stable two months, Su Jinyu was once again a bit troubled these days.
The reason for her distress was the rumors that had reached Xiaoyao Peak.
At the mont, Su Jinyu was holding a longsword upside down, sitting on a stone chair by the mountain.
Her delicate brows furrowed, the word "troubled" written all over her pretty face.
"Miss, you shouldn’t bother yourself over such people; it’s not worth it.
This will only disturb your cultivation, and if he hears you’re troubled over him, he might even be quite pleased."
The maid Qingcao standing beside Su Jinyu was still as articulate as ever.
Su Jinyu gazed into the distance, claiming not to be troubled by it, but it was much easier said than done.
Trying to distract oneself from thinking about it often leads to more thoughts.
"As the saying goes, even a toad dreams of eating swan at.
No matter how worried you are, miss, you can’t control what others think.
Besides, even if Shen Han dreams day and night, he won’t touch the tips of your wings."
Seeing Su Jinyu remain silent, Qingcao spoke again to console her mistress.
But today, it wasn’t so easy to comfort Su Jinyu.
"Miss, why bother adding so much worry onto yourself..."
Seemingly recalling Shen Han, Su Jinyu’s eyes showed a hint of disgust.
"If it were as simple as you said...
Yesterday, my father spoke to , hoping I would go talk to Shen Han and persuade him to lean toward our Su Family..."
Qingcao paused for a mont: "The master’s intention is... to recruit Shen Han?"
