Primordial Harem System

Before any of them could even react, Shen Yuan's sword buzzed slightly as he unsheathed it and sent a Qi wave toward the beast.

It cleanly sliced it in half before he sheathed the blade again.

Everything happened so fast that none of them were able to even feel the murderous aura this time.

"What a good sword," Ling Mei muttered as she saw the cleanly sliced body of the beast lying on the ground.

The others nodded their heads in agreement, though they also wondered if they could become as strong as Shen Yuan one day.

He smiled and spoke, "No need to dwell on this matter.

You all are the proud disciples of the Radiant Lotus Sacred Sect.

Of course, you will get stronger than the current me.

"The disciples' eyes lit up as they felt eager to find a new inheritance ground to try their luck.

Shen Yuan chuckled seeing their expressions and continued walking, looking for a few interesting things.

He also collected a few herbs that he found inside the dense forest.

Most of them were hidden clearly by the naturally formed arrays, but none escaped his vision as he collected quite a few herbs.

Wan Ling looked at the herbs in wonder.

"Will you use them yourself, Senior Brother?

""I will let my mom have a look at them to see what they are," he shook his head and answered her question.

She tilted her head.

"Your mom?

Is she an alchemist, Senior Brother?

What is her name?

"Shen Yuan chuckled softly.

"You will know in due time.

She is not here right now, so there is no point in talking about her.

"The rest of the disciples curiously listened in on their conversation, hoping to find out something about Shen Yuan's background since he was coated in mystery.

Shen Yuan smiled seeing their expressions, but he didn't address it and continued moving forward.

Soon, they reached another site.

There was nothing but a boulder with lines of ancient text written on it.

Chen Yue looked at it intently before asking, "What is this, Senior Brother Shen Yuan?

I feel like it is giving off…""Whip vibes," Shen Yuan continued where she paused, knowing what she meant as he also felt that immense aura coming off from the boulder.

"Yes!

That!

I feel like it's releasing whip intent.

Is this some treasure or what?

" Chen Yue exclaimed, her expression turning excited upon the mention of a treasure.

Shen Yuan shook his head and sat down in front of the stone.

"It's a whip technique, quite a powerful one at that.

You guys should try to learn it.

Even if you can't use it, you can sell it outside for a fortune or gift it to the sect for bonus points.

"The rest of the disciples followed after him and sat down, forming a circle around the boulder.

Wan Ling and Ling Mei sat on each side of Shen Yuan as if monopolizing him.

The other disciples shook their heads, but they all closed their eyes and started feeling the aura of the boulder.

The entire place descended into silence as everyone meditated on the technique.

Shen Yuan himself began comprehending the technique, and as it was not his first time learning a whip technique, he picked it up quite quickly.

He started visualizing the technique inside his mind, seeing its variation and how to utilize it most effectively in combat.

The rest of the disciples were only scratching the surface of the technique when Shen Yuan had mastered more than half of it.

Shen Yuan soon felt some movement in the surroundings.

He opened his eyes to see the area around him, then stood up and walked toward the right side behind the boulder.

He slowly unsheathed his sword and stepped behind the dense bushes.

He found another beast of the Mystique Realm lying in wait to ambush him.

Shen Yuan utilized one of his silent techniques to quietly kill it.

The beast couldn't even wail as it died in agony.

Shen Yuan's cold eyes turned normal as he came back and sat down in his position.

The rest of the disciples didn't even know what had happened as they continued to cultivate in peace.

Only Shen Yuan knew that if he had drifted too deep into meditation, everyone there might have died due to the beast.

He closed his eyes to comprehend the technique again.

…Shen Yuan opened his eyes again after a while, he looked around him to see that the disciples were still meditating.

He didn't disturb them, instead, he slowly stood up and went to sit some distance away from them.

"This technique is quite good but completely useless for me since I don't use whip much, it might prove more useful to one of them instead.

" He muttered while looking at the disciples lost in training.

He looked at his right, "Hmm?

Looks like it's a good time for target practice.

"He took out a unique bow, its design seemed more elegant as the string seemed to be made from a material that absorbs the sounds, he then took out an arrow made with a similar material.

"This bow and arrow won't make any noise and will get the work done, perfectly.

" He smiled as he put the arrow on the bow and pulled the string, aiming at where he heard the noise from, he released the arrow.

But before the arrow could hit his target, Shen Yuan shot out another arrow towards the bush he heard the voice from.

As the arrows hit, he heard the sound of someone dropping on the group, he knew his prey had been caught, so he didn't move from his place to check what it was, instead, he continued guarding his fellow disciples.

[You have been taking quite the good care of your fellow disciples, Yuan'er.

]Yue Lan's teasing voice sounded in his head.

"Why did you become so chatty today?

And as for me protecting them?

It's because they will be the future pillar of my sect.

" Shen Yuan answered her.

[I see, I see.

So you have already decided to make Radiant Lotus Sacred Sect your new home.

]"Not yet, I still need to see how the Inner Sect is before deciding on it fully, so far, the Outer Sect disciples have not let me down, I hope the Inner Sect members will be able to do the same.

" He played with an arrow while talking with her.

[Let's see what will happen in the future.

]She got silent after saying that, Shen Yuan also became silent and started looking around the forest again for any possible dangers.

…Soon, the disciples started opening their eyes some had bright expressions while others looked frustrated with themselves.

"How were your gains?

" Shen Yuan came forward and asked everyone.

Ling Mei looked at him in frustration, "How fast did you even comprehend it?

I couldn't even comprehend it even when nearly everyone woke up.

"Shen Yuan chuckled softly, "I comprehended it a while ago when I was killing the random beast that came near this place.

"Ling Mei and the other disciples' eyes widened as they looked around in shock and fear.

Wondering what might have happened if Shen Yuan was not standing guard around them.
