Chapter 118 Shadow Extraction

In the middle of the forest, there were three creatures standing in front of a dead body of a human. Two of them were a wolf and a monkey while the other was a human.

Chu Yan had his eyes closed as he was releasing shadow energy into the corpse. And, a shadowy figure was slowly rising from the corpse. When it rose to a certain height, the figure suddenly disintegrated into black dust.

“I can’t do this. Chen, no matter how many times you ask me unless my strength reaches closer to their cultivation, I can’t extract their shadows. I’m sorry.” Chu Yan painfully opened his eyes and shook his head.

Fu Chen clenched his fist and spoke “Come on! You can do it. You just need to focus more and practice more. Yes, the strength matter but there isn’t much of a difference between you two.”

“Oh yeah! He is a freaking Law Condensation Realm cultivator while I am only at the True Essence Realm. The difference between us is like heaven and earth.” Chu Yan rolled his eyes and responded.

“Come on, we can kill the Law Condensation Realm and we just fought against Nascent Soul Cultivator. You can do this. Just continue focusing on it and you will easily pull it off.” Fu Chen continued to convince him.

“First, we can’t kill Law Condensation Realm cultivator. Only you can kill them. Second, we didn’t fight Nascent Soul Cultivator. We got thrashed by her and lost someone close to us.”

“Besides, why are you trying to be so reckless? We don’t need to pick a fight at this moment. We just need to save your girlfriend and escape. You can easily do that, can’t you?” Chu Yan asked.

Hearing his words, Fu Chen froze for a moment. He walked toward a stone and sat down. He covered his face with his palms and spoke.

“Sorry!”

He sounded very exhausted.

Hearing his voice, both of them walked toward him. Chu Yan rubbed his face against Fu Chen’s arm and said.

“Listen, we are brothers. We will do anything for you. But, this is not just some task. This is a hellish task. If I had to grade this task, I would call it a ‘Hell-Level Task’. So, give me one reasonable explanation why we should do this?”

Hearing his words, Fu Chen bit his lips. That was the problem. He couldn’t reveal the existence of system to others. But, at this moment, Ysla’s voice rang in his mind.

“Host, they already know about the unknown presence inside you. So, you can tell them as long as you don’t mention the name of the system. And, also, try not to be so obvious.”NewW novels updates at novelhall.com

Her words made Fu Chen widen his eyes. He instantly raised his head and put his hand on Chu Yan’s shoulder.

“I will give you the valid reason. And, then you have to put all of your efforts into extracting the shadows of Law Condensation Realm.”

Chu Yan looked at him with surprise and nodded.

“What? It didn’t happen before, did it?” Fu Chen asked.

“No, it didn’t. That’s why I screamed in pain. Anyway, it seems like I can inherit the memories of Law Condensation Realm cultivator, or maybe this one is a special case.” Chu Yan spoke.

“Is he special?” Fu Chen asked as he looked at the body. He didn’t find anything special in this person.

“No! He isn’t. And, I meant a special case, not a special person. Anyway, I need to rest for a moment before we continue.” Chu Yan lay down as he felt exhausted.

Fu Chen thought for a moment and took out a few soul crystals.

“Do you think this will help?”

“Soul Crystals! It might help. When I received those memories, it left strain in my soul.” Chu Yan took those crystals and started absorbing them.

“By the way, is that old man still inside your body?” Fu Chen asked.

“No! After I took what I needed, I killed him but I couldn’t absorb his soul power. It just faded away inside my consciousness.” Chu Yan explained as the white energy entered his body.

“Anyway, congrats! You freaking took out the shadow of someone with two realms higher than yours. It’s a real feat.” Fu Chen shouted on his face as he congratulated him.

“Why do you sound so excited when you are the one who told me to do so?” Chu Yan rolled his eyes as he asked.

“Well, I didn’t expect you to pull it off so quickly. And, I am happy for my friend who managed to extract the shadow of someone with two realms higher than his. You have a freaking Law Condensation Realm servant now.” Fu Chen was really excited.

Because it only has been the second day after they moved toward the royal capital. Although there might not be corpses of Nascent Soul cultivators around, just having Law Condensation Realms cultivators’ shadow is more than enough for a powerful army.

“Anyway, how do you think they will react to our attack? They might send more than one Nascent Soul Realm cultivator against us.” Chu Yan asked.

Wu Kong raised both of his hands and shouted “Then, let them eat my rod. We won’t back down no matter what they throw at us.”

“We can’t do that, idiot. We are too low on numbers. And, even if that boy manages to recruit people, they won’t be strong enough.” Chu Yan rolled his eyes at Wu Kong.

Hearing his words, Wu Kong turned around and started pouting. Fu Chen sighed “Kong is correct. We will fight back.”

“Really?” Wu Kong instantly stopped pouting and looked at him with excitement. He turned his head at Chu Yan and showed his smugness.

“See! See! Even Brother Chen thinks I am correct. Hehe! Don’t take me as an idiot which I am not.”

“Ahem! Although what you said is correct, what Chu Yan said is also correct. So, we need to find some people, some who might help us.” Fu Chen helplessly smiled at Wu Kong and interrupted his smug look.

“Do you have someone in your mind?” Chu Yan suspiciously looked at him and asked.

“My old enemy Zhu Tan! Two strong opponents Mu Fan and Jian Shen.”
