The Undead covering the mountains came quickly and left just as quickly. Not long after Little Skeleton gave the order, they returned the way they had come.
Only after the mountain returned to normal did Little Skeleton's enormous body shrink again, returning to his original thin, small form. He looked at Han Shuo and asked, "Father, why have you come?"
"I sensed your soul merging with the death Elemental Origin Crystal, so I came to see how you were doing. I never expected you to have reached such heights. Very good." Han Shuo was genuinely happy for Little Skeleton and spoke with a light heart.
"It was all thanks to your help, Father. Without you, I wouldn't be who I am today," Little Skeleton said.
By now, Han Shuo truly no longer worried about Little Skeleton. Having made even the Bone Dragon and Zombie King submit, Little Skeleton would face almost no danger in the Undead World as long as he did not encounter the even more mysterious and powerful beings of legend.
"All right, all right. Now that you've evolved to this level of strength, I can truly rest easy. Mm, spend some time getting used to your new soul and body. Also, once Little Water and Little Wood come out, supervise them as they practice the Heavenly Corpse Five Elements Formation," Han Shuo said.
"Don't worry, Father. I know what to do," Little Skeleton answered.
Without lingering any longer, Han Shuo sent his Divine Sense through the Spatial Tunnel and returned to the Qio Continent, regaining consciousness in the hidden Secret Chamber in the Dark Forest.
He did not know how much time had passed. Han Shuo flexed the bones of his hands, then left the cave chamber and headed deeper into the Dark Forest.
