Divine Harem: My Sect of Heavenly Beauties-Chapter 270: Binding the Dungeon Core

Once named, the crimson sphere began to glow brighter until it resembled a small sun. Without stopping there, the sphere shot toward Shen Yu and sank into his chest.

Nancy smiled upon seeing this and said,

"She is now a system core who belongs to you, so she now wants to know her purpose of creation. She is currently resting inside you and waiting for further commands."

Shen Yu touched the area where the crimson light had disappeared and asked,

"So, is it like an AI that needs to be trained from the start?"

Nancy nodded.

"Yes, the difference is that this one will have reality-bending powers and will govern her domain neutrally. She will slowly learn and adapt to everything, growing stronger and more intelligent in the process."

Shen Yu smiled and said,

"And handling this dungeon is a good start."

He chuckled softly before raising his hand, and the Heavenspart Island trembled once again, before a giant metal ball flew out of it.

It was pure gray in color, and there was a large cut in its center, revealing its ember core to the world.

This was the dungeon core.

Shen Yu commanded Lilith,

"Your task is to govern this dungeon to the best of your capabilities. You can use memories for inspiration and to learn how to do that. You also need to assist Stone in managing it."

[Understood, Master.]

'It can't speak too many words for now.'

He transferred the arrangements he had thought up for the dungeon to her, so that she would follow them properly.

It felt surreal to see the progress. He had only read about world systems that brought opportunities along with the apocalypse in novels.

Now, he had done it in reality.

Shen Yu turned toward Stone and said,

"Use your blood essence to bind with the Dungeon Core. Through it, you can communicate with Lilith and also use various powers of the dungeon."

Stone bowed lightly toward him and approached the dungeon core. He tapped his glabella twice, severing a small portion of it as a crimson-dark blood drop emerged.

He only took a single drop and dropped it onto the dungeon core. Instantly, he felt a rush of Qi flood through him, making him feel refreshed and relaxed.

However, he soon realized that the energy was never-ending, making him panic slightly, as this could very well kill him.

This usually happened when one tried to refine something beyond their capabilities. The dungeon was obviously not something he could easily bind, but Shen Yu had commanded it, so he would put in every last bit of effort.

As he closed his eyes and sat mid-air, the atmosphere turned still, and the deep ember of the core began to bubble as if it were heating up.

Then, it flowed outward and a portion of it sealed into Stone's glabella, causing him to scream in pain and agony. The ember was trying to kill him from the inside, burning his internal organs one by one.

However, Stone refused to give up. He hadn't reached his current position through luck.

He had earned it—so how could he give up so easily?

Determination filled his entire being as his Qi surged throughout his body. It fought the invading energy, turning his body into a battlefield.

A stream of blood began dripping from the corner of his lips, but they soon curled up into a grin as he ruthlessly slammed his fist into his chest.

Shen Yu and the others watched everything with interest. He could have helped him refine it, but he had already done everything he could… technically.

Managing this dungeon would be both a great responsibility and a valuable opportunity, so he wanted to see if Stone was truly capable and suitable for it.

That was why he had lowered the difficulty of refining to a level where Stone could barely manage it. It would still be extremely difficult, and that was what Stone was now enduring.

"Master, is there anything else we need to do here?"

Lan Ming asked, to which Shen Yu nodded.

"Yes. I'll shift the Spiritual Creatures into the dungeon depending on their strength and intelligence. Then, we'll need to clear some areas and establish beginner-level villages."

Lan Ming tilted her head slightly.

"So that the people who don't want to fight can have other roles and also some measure of safety?"

He nodded.

"Yes, but Xu Ming will handle all of that. He's the Administrator of this Island."

All of a sudden, Stone's eyes flicked open. He didn't disappoint them, as they could feel a mysterious power brimming within him.

He stood up and bowed to Shen Yu.

"I will be eternally grateful for this opportunity, Master, and I will not disappoint you."

Through the connection with the dungeon core, he could sense the changes it could bring to him. Those changes would make him stronger than ever.

Shen Yu acknowledged his bow and looked at the dungeon core.

"Do you want to say goodbye to Vanish? Because I'm transferring you to the administration room of the dungeon. You can still travel back to the sect to meet Vanish, but it's best if you stay within it."

Stone smiled and responded,

"I've already bid farewell to her, as I knew you had plans for us. We only wish to serve you, Master."

Not knowing what to say in return for his reverence, Shen Yu clicked his fingers, and both the dungeon core and Stone disappeared.

He had already given all the instructions to Lilith, so he was sure Stone could handle it well. Even if he couldn't, he could always ask Shen Yu directly.

"Now, time to shift the Spiritual Creatures."

Shen Yu smiled and locked onto every single Spiritual Creature on the Heavenspart Island. Then, with a single thought, he transferred most of them to various floors based on their strengths.

He left some weak Spiritual Creatures on the Island, as they would help maintain the ecosystem. As for the more powerful ones, they were all sent to deeper floors.

After that, he turned his attention to the sea around the island and did the same. He left the finer distribution to Stone, as he would still need to create new maps.

Nancy stared at him and licked her lips, which were threatening to split into a wide grin.

"Master, Lilith has both my essence and also yours. Don't you think, in a way, she's our first child?"

Shen Yu paused, dumbstruck, while the other wives looked equally shocked as Lan Ming cried out,

"That was your plan all along!! That's not fair, Sister Nancy!"
