"Teacher Gu Luo, we have indeed encountered some trouble."

Fang Heng nodded at the people behind him.

Lord Dani and Xu Xun stood at the door of the room, guarding it carefully to prevent outsiders from eavesdropping.

Gu Luo was surprised. Why were these people so careful?

Whoosh!

Fang Heng raised his hand.

Dark light swirled in front of him.

The Shrine of Bones levitated in front of Fang Heng.

Gu Luo narrowed his eyes.

The Shrine of Bones!

Even though the Shrine of Bones was wrapped in hundreds of layers of rune paper, Gu Luo still recognized it at a glance.

Gu Luo said seriously, "Oh, it's the Shrine of Bones. Not bad. Compared to ordinary soul sealing bottles, the Shrine of Bones is indeed a better container. With it, it won't be a problem to store the Saintess' soul."

Fang Heng stepped forward and said, "Teacher Gu Luo, thank you for your help. We have successfully used the Shrine of Bones to seal the soul of Saintess Viona. Now her soul is stored in the Shrine of Bones. We would like to request mission completion."

What?!

Teacher Gu Luo's pupils constricted when he heard that. He stared at the Shrine of Bones in front of Fang Heng.

Fang Heng had just come to ask him about the details yesterday afternoon, and it was already done tonight?

He knew that Fang Heng was going to deal with Viona, and it was under the circumstances that Viona had obtained a portion of the Saintess' inheritance power!

However, Gu Luo never expected Fang Heng to be so fast, and he actually succeeded!

Teacher Gu Luo's expression turned grave. He slowly walked forward and stretched out his hand, gently pressing it on the Shrine of Bones that was levitating in midair.

A game notification flashed across Fang Heng's retina.

[Hint: Special character Gu Luo is attempting to sense and control the Shrine of Bones. Confirm permission.]

"Confirm."

Fang Heng thought to himself.

Teacher Gu Luo closed his eyes and sensed for a moment before he suddenly opened his eyes.

He stared at Fang Heng in disbelief.

Viona's soul!

That's right! It was indeed Viona's soul!

However, even Gu Luo did not expect Viona's soul power to be so strong!

Viona had already awakened at least 10% of the Saintess's inheritance!

Gu Luo wanted to ask Fang Heng how he did it!

Even if it was only one-eleventh of the inheritance power, the strength of this soul could already reach the demigod level!

Gu Luo's eyes gradually softened, and contained some excitement. He softly sighed, "Well done. With you guys around, there's hope for the revival of my necromancy studies."

In the room, Xu Xun and the others were delighted when they heard this.

On the way here, they had already heard Fang Heng talk about the drawbacks of using the Shrine of Bones.

It was very likely that Viona's soul could not be extracted, which meant they might fail the final mission.

From Gu Luo's tone, the mission had passed the review.

"However..."

Gu Luo changed the topic and frowned slightly.

"The Shrine of Bones is a little damaged. It will take some effort to extract Viona's soul completely..."

Xu Xun's heart sank.

Would there be trouble?

Milani bowed and said, "Teacher Gu Luo, we ran into some trouble while sealing Viona's soul. We had no choice but to use the Shrine of Bones to seal her, so we sincerely request your help. If you have any requests, please let us know. We'll do our best."

"Yes."

Teacher Gu Luo nodded and said, "Yes. In terms of the mission alone, you have completed it very well. Even if you completed it as a team, it has far exceeded my expectations. However, to complete the talent advancement, you still need to provide me with the corresponding brilliant crystals."

"Thank you, Teacher Gu Luo."

Hearing this, Xu Xun and the others heaved a sigh of relief and bowed in unison.

The biggest problem in the talent advancement mission was to obtain the high-level soul of the Holy Court.

Some were even stuck for as long as ten years!

Finally, it was completed. At this moment, everyone felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from their bodies.

"No need to be so polite. As for how much personal talent can be strengthened, it will depend on the tier of the crystal you give us."

Teacher Gu Luo waved his hand, indicating for everyone to stand up, "Talent enhancement is also related to the strength of your original talent. You've done very well this time, much better than I expected. Therefore, I'll give each of you an additional highest-tier brilliant crystal."

"Thank you, Teacher!"

Everyone couldn't help but be a little happy as they bowed again to thank him.

The highest-tier of the brilliant crystal!

It was very rare!

Even for them, it would take a few years to obtain one.

"Yes, all of you deserve this. When you have gathered the remaining brilliant crystals required for the advancement of your talent, you can come to me at any time to advance your talent. The others can go ahead with their work. Fang Heng, you stay here. I still have something to say to you."

Lord Dani and the others in the room bowed again.

"Thank you, Teacher! We will take our leave first."

Everyone nodded at Fang Heng and left.

After everyone left, Fang Heng looked at Teacher Gu Luo.

He was still a little puzzled. It seemed that Xu Xun and the others had completed the mission. Why hadn't he received a notification that the mission had been completed?

Could there be a follow-up?

Could it be related to the Shrine of Bones?

Would there be twists and turns again?

Fang Heng couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive. He asked, "Is there anything else I can do for you?"

"Yes."

With no outsiders around, Teacher Gu Luo's expression became even gentler. He sat back on his chair and waved his hand. He said, "Come, sit down, sit down, and talk slowly."

When Fang Heng sat down opposite him, Teacher Gu Luo's eyes flashed with praise as he slowly said, "The Shrine of Bones is in a damaged state and still has a huge flaw. It's a little difficult to use it to seal the soul. Of course, this isn't your fault. I didn't expect you to be able to nurture Viona's inheritance to such an extent."

"However, to completely extract Viona's soul, I still need to borrow your Shrine of Bones for some time. Are you willing?"

[Hint: Comprehensive assessment...]

[Hint: The current talent advancement guidance mission has been completed by forming a party. The individual contribution of the party is higher than 80%. The completion rate is 5,600%. As the player cannot remove the sealed soul, if the player refuses Gu Luo's request, the player's completion rate will be reduced to 4,500%.]

[Hint: Rejecting this request will not affect Teacher Gu Luo's friendliness.]

Fang Heng quickly scanned through the game notifications.

"Of course, no problem. Teacher, please take it."

The Shrine of Bones was not very useful to him, but it was worth it to exchange it for a mission completion rate of nearly 1000%!

"Yes... Shrine of Bones..."

Gu Luo held the levitating Shrine of Bones in his hand and examined it for a moment before putting it away.

He looked at Fang Heng again and asked, "Have you prepared the brilliant crystals needed to advance your talent?"

"It's ready, Teacher."

Fang Heng placed the three highest-tier brilliant crystals on the table in a row.
