Chapter 216: Great Harvest!

"Hmph!"

"Han Feng, you deserve what's coming to you."

Looking at Han Feng, who was silently roaring with a fierce expression inside the Black Pearl, the shadow sneered.

Although he had no personal grudge against Han Feng, for some reason, the shadow instinctively felt a strong hatred towards those who "betrayed their teachers and destroyed their ancestors."

Perhaps it had something to do with the many disciples under the shadow's sect.

Just imagine, if one of his disciples were to betray their teacher and destroy their ancestors, what would he do?

No matter where in the world, he would hunt them down and punish them severely!

"Those who betray their teachers and destroy their ancestors should all be killed!"

With a gleam of intense murderous intent in his eyes, the shadow collected the Black Pearl containing Han Feng's soul.

Then, the shadow's eyes caught sight of the deep blue soul ring on Han Feng's finger, which emitted a faint blue light. This indicated that this soul ring was different from ordinary low-level ones.

"No wonder he's the leader of the Black Union; he even wears a high-level soul ring."

The shadow smirked and unceremoniously removed the deep blue soul ring from Han Feng's finger.

Soul rings also had different levels of rarity. High-level soul rings were extremely rare, and even in the Black Domain's auction houses, they were highly sought after. Over the years, the shadow had never worn a high-level soul ring himself and had made do with mediocre low-level ones.

Previously, the shadow didn't have high requirements for soul rings because of the existence of the system's space. If something couldn't fit, he could simply store it in the system's space.

However, ever since he had obtained the Space Heart from that high-level soul ring he gave to his disciples last time, he had started paying more attention to soul rings.

The Space Heart could create space and expand it with the user's strength. Such a valuable item was impossible for the shadow to ignore, even though he already possessed many treasures.

He speculated that if he were to give this high-level soul ring to one of his disciples, he might gain some extraordinary space-related treasure in return.

With this thought in mind, the shadow was filled with anticipation.

As he examined the deep blue soul ring in his hand, the shadow's spiritual power tentatively tried to enter it, but he was surprised to find that the soul ring rebounded his spiritual power.

"No wonder it's a high-level soul ring; it has this kind of protective function."

With a wry smile, the shadow understood that high-level soul rings allowed their owners to set soul imprints. This meant that even if someone else obtained the soul ring, they would need to erase the soul imprint to access its contents. The owner would be alerted in such a situation. This nearly autonomous protection function was unique to high-level soul rings and one of the main reasons for their high value.

Currently, Han Feng was essentially dead, so the shadow had no worries about being detected by him.

Therefore, with a fierce surge of spiritual power, the shadow forcefully erased Han Feng's lingering soul imprint and left his own mark. In this way, this high-level soul ring officially changed ownership.

As the shadow removed the soul ring's imprint, Han Feng's soul within the Black Pearl seemed to sense something and let out another heart-wrenching, silent roar.

The shadow paid no attention to this and was satisfied as he wore the deep blue soul ring on his finger. He then effortlessly allowed his spiritual power to enter the ring.

The investigation only lasted a moment before the shadow slowly withdrew his consciousness from the soul ring. At this moment, there was a hint of undeniable surprise in his eyes.

Over the years, Han Feng had collected an incredible amount of treasures in the Black Domain. The soul ring contained numerous rare herbs that were extremely rare outside, and various martial arts and combat skill scrolls were casually placed within it. Clearly, these were items exchanged by those who sought his alchemical expertise.

Although the shadow only took a quick glance, the richness of the contents within the soul ring excited him. This time, with all of Han Feng's wealth and the treasures stored in this deep blue high-level soul ring, it would drive every powerful figure in the Black Domain crazy.

"Hehe, no wonder he's a sixth-grade alchemist; he's truly swimming in riches!"

The shadow chuckled and then suddenly stopped, a hint of frustration on his face.

Why was he, a seventh-grade alchemist, living in such dire circumstances?

Why did he have to resort to acts of robbery to achieve his dream of becoming wealthy?

Sighing softly, the shadow transformed into a mysterious black mist and disappeared into the dense forest.

...

A moment later, in the same ordinary tavern, the figure of Gu He suddenly appeared out of thin air.

Gu He stared at the viscous white liquid with a blank expression, and his joy surged to its peak in that moment.

Earth Core Soul Marrow was an extremely rare and precious treasure of heaven and earth. For alchemists like him, it had an irresistibly attractive quality because it could temper the soul.

To temper the soul meant to refine and cultivate it. In other words, Earth Core Soul Marrow could cleanse the impurities from the soul. For Gu He, who had heard of the Earth Core Soul Marrow's reputation but had never encountered it in all these years, this was a great stroke of fortune.

This treasure had a significant role to play in his current situation. With it, Gu He could have a fifty-percent chance of breaking through to the Spiritual Realm. His alchemical skills would also advance to the eighth-grade alchemist realm.

"Hahaha, indeed, this trip to the Black Domain has been worthwhile, all thanks to these spirit herbs!"

Thinking about his imminent breakthrough to the Spiritual Realm, Gu He couldn't help but burst into hearty laughter.

Next, it took him another half a day to finally tally up his gains from this period.

Among them:

- Fifty types of seventh-grade spirit herbs!

- Three hundred types of sixth-grade spirit herbs!

- Over a thousand types of fifth-grade spirit herbs!

As for magic cores:

- Ten seventh-grade magic cores!

- One hundred and fifty sixth-grade magic cores!

- Hundreds of fifth-grade magic cores!

Magic core weapons:

- Seven seventh-grade magic core weapons!

- Twenty sixth-grade magic core weapons!

- Over a hundred fifth-grade magic core weapons!

Martial art scrolls:

- Four Earth-grade martial art scrolls!

- Dozens of advanced Xuan-grade martial art scrolls!

Alchemy elixirs:

- One seventh-grade elixir!

- Over ten sixth-grade elixirs!

- Over a hundred fifth-grade elixirs!

"Hahaha, it's a real bonanza this time!"

Gu He stared at his harvest in amazement, unable to contain his joy.
