Absolute Strengthening Technique 110 Soul Mark

Both Shen and Mingyue Gelou suddenly sweated profusely at Yu Ruyan's words. Her voice contained an indiscernible hint of irony.

Gulping lightly, Shen held Yu Ruyan's body tightly with his. He felt his action in this situation was a bit inappropriate but at the same time, it was also the only thing he could do to make her prove wrong. "How can that be possible? Didn't I always rely on you?"

Yu Ruyan snorted, but she didn't push Shen back neither did she struggle to break free. "Hmph, if you did you would've told me when you had something like this. From the outside and your familiarity with the palace, it seems you had this for a long time."

Yu Ruyan's action might seem a bit childish and even immature but Shen understood she only did so because it was him. All women wished to be spoiled by their lover even if they were old and had a foot on the grave. It only caused him to understand she wasn't really angry but only worried. A place as big as this might even contain hidden danger. In fact, something as big as the Heavenly Emperor Palace should be riddled with hundreds of thousands of traps. No matter the way Shen obtained this and if it was really in the form of a tablet, the danger only increases several times drastically. She wasn't wrong either when Shen entered the palace for the first time he did get close to death for multiple times.

"But I revealed this secret to you first!" When Shen said this he felt two pair of hot eyes glaring at him from somewhere unknown. He forcefully pushed the feelings back and carefully observed Yu Ruyan.

As he expected Yu Ruyan seemed visibly a little better but as Mingyue Gelou was looking at the two with a smile, she still kept her stern face. "So, what did you want to talk about?"

"Eh? Yeah. I wanted to take Wushuang and Wugou with us... err, as well as Shi Qingzhuang, Wu-Feng Wuxi and Yu He..." as Shen spoke his volume got increasingly milder until it couldn't be heard anymore.

For the first time, he wondered whether it was a good idea to talk about his lover to another lover. So far, he was like a playboy having fun one after another girl but now that he was going to gather them together, just the thought suddenly frightened them. After all, all of them was mightier than the other. It wouldn't be surprising if a fight broke out, right? Shen questioned multiple times in his head.

"What's wrong? You're sweating suddenly." Yu Ruyan said in a worried voice but her face had a slight smile which didn't look like a smile at the same time.

"Ahaha, its nothing, nothing." Shen wiped his face and continued, "I'm a little worried about Miss Yuyu, her strength is extremely high. Maybe the peak of Martial Saint, and I don't trust her but if I bring Wugou and Wushuang, it wouldn't be appropriate to leave her. Not to mention whether she would be willing to separate from Wugou is an entirely different matter."

"Ah, her..." Ruyan made a thoughtful expression, which suited her incomparably mature face, creating a striking scene, "So far she didn't reveal any hostility. Her protectiveness towards Wugou even goes to the point of being called crazy. You might not know but during the months after her appearance, she already killed nine men who tried to flirt with her. In the end, Wugou decided to stop acting as a manager."

"Something like that happened..."

"Yes, but that doesn't mean she can be trusted. As you said, we are unaware of her origin and intentions. From how the situation looks, it would be best to keep this place a secret until you can trust her."

"As expected, huh? It's a pity though..."

"Pity?"

"Yes, there are quite a few special cultivation and training grounds. The most fascinating parts would be seclusion rooms. You can cultivate for an extended period there."

Yu Ruyan made an 'oh' expression but thinking how mystical and enormous this palace or rather, the treasure was, she felt it was extremely normal for it to have such a thing. It was to point she even thought, not having those would be unbelievable and weird.

As Shen said, even she thought it would be a pity to let those resources rot around. After contemplating for a long time, she finally decided to take a gamble. "Give me half a month, I'll give you a final answer."

Yu Ruyan said in a completely serious manner, leaving Shen surprised. What was she planning to do? He was curious but he didn't ask and only nodded.

Yu Ruyan seemed to have thought of something and said in a wondering tone, "Is there anything you forgot to mention about this palace or this s.p.a.ce you call realm."

Shen thought carefully before choosing his words, "The only thing I can tell about this palace is, its extremely safe. I don't know all the things inside it either but there's a lot of interesting things here. As for this realm, the only thing I forgot to mention would be the current limit of people I can bring inside is only 15."

"15? Then what if someone forces their way inside when they detect this realm?"

Normal people might not notice this realm but those with higher cultivation might possibly detect it. Such a thing wasn't an unfounded worry. Even if she failed to detect any abnormality, it wasn't safe to say there was no way. Yu Ruyan was clear of this fact. As for how the numbers worked, she could only point it towards some existing laws of this s.p.a.ce.

"That's not possible. None can detect this realm, let alone entering forcefully."

"Shen, don't be childish. Just because it remained undetected doesn't mean it won't."

"Alright! Let's think this realm was found out by someone, but they still can't enter inside. Without the soul mark, everyone who enters this realm would only come with their body but not the soul."

"Soul Mark?"

"Yes, if you examine your soul sea you will find it."

Yu Ruyan's eyes looked vacant for a moment before she looked at him with surprise. This type of mark should be extremely difficult to place. Not only that, she didn't even realize before this moment that Shen placed the mark on her soul. Note that anything related to the soul could be only interfered without any damage would be when both parties were willing. Shen seemed to see through her question as he added once again, "You might haven't realized this but your guard against me is extremely weak."

Of course, what he said wasn't the whole truth. Even if she had zero guards against him, putting a soul mark in normal circ.u.mstances would still be difficult. Especially without even letting the other party know. He was only able to do so because at that moment Yu Ruyan reached the peak of pleasure and her soul was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with life.

Yu Ruyan looked skeptical and even frowned a bit but she didn't pursue this matter, "If you have that much trust I'll drop this matter here. Alright, for now, I'll check the outside of this palace. It's a big place, I want to see how's the mist blocking our path."

Shen happily complied, he once checked the layer of mist that was limiting the s.p.a.ce and it was really strange. It was thin, yet inflexible and nothing could be seen beyond that. He tried to break it by punching but his full strength didn't even cause it to tremble, as if his strength was akin to an ant before the giant sea.

Mingyue Gelou decided to check out the training resources and all the other facilities the palace has to offer. It was a job perfect for her and since she showed her willingness, Shen didn't stop her either. He silently sent Gong Shang a mental order to help her. Although, he didn't receive a response he wasn't bothered by it. Both Kaidi and Gong Shang should be inside the palace and he could feel two pair of eyes looking at him with a bit of anger.
