In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed hastily.

Xiao Wu's hundred thousand-year cultivation base origin had been fully replenished, but she continued to refine the energy of the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and used a portion of it to cultivate her Jade Bones.

"That damn rabbit, how could it be so ruthless?" The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was terrified, unable to fathom why a soft-boned rabbit in human form could absorb energy at such a rapid pace.

At this rate, it wouldn't be able to hold on for even five thousand years.

This soft-boned rabbit's bloodline must have mutated!

After much deliberation, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm decided not to suppress the energy within its body any longer, preparing to inject it directly into the rabbit, to overwhelm it and burst it open—

"Suck my cultivation? Let me give you your fill!"

"The body of a beast soul is formidable. Even if you can't burst, I still have to work hard to prevent the energy from being drawn out of my body. Do you really think, as a transformed beast soul, you can withstand my majestic cultivation?"

"Prepare to die!"

"Hmph!" Sensing a sudden increase in internal energy, Xiao Wu grunted, her whole body trembling. However, she didn't feel too uncomfortable. She just opened her eyes, glanced at the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm with a mocking smile, and fully activated the Jade Bones Golden Muscles Divine Art, absorbing and refining the energy, condensing it into Jade Bones.

"What? How can she absorb so much?"

The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm wore a bewildered expression. It wanted to restrain the energy, but found that Xiao Wu was like a voracious beast, with the energy entering her body akin to prey entering the mouth of a ravenous beast, with no hope of escape.

In just half an hour, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's body had shrunk by one meter.

"My perfect figure! Just now it was twenty meters, now it's only nineteen meters. This is bad. I won't have the face to see my beloved Bing Bing in the future."

However, Xiao Wu paid no attention, continuing to absorb the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's energy, refining her Jade Bones while enriching her own hundred thousand-year cultivation base origin.

Coupled with other hundred thousand-year soul beasts and fierce beasts also devouring the energy of the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, after another half a month, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's body had reduced to only eight or nine meters in size.

"I'm going to explode!"

Under Xiao Wu's pressure, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm felt the psychological pain it had suffered in this month was more agonizing than the absorption process of soul beasts it had experienced for thousands or tens of thousands of years in the past.

Under mental anguish, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm continuously compressed its spiritual power, refining it. Finally, a tenth golden pattern appeared on its body.

In an instant, a golden light burst forth, illuminating the entire cave.

When the light dissipated, the figure of the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm had disappeared.

Di Tian rushed over upon hearing the news and investigated. He said, "That bug has escaped. The fluctuation just now should indicate it has broken through to the million-year level."

"However, most of its energy has already been absorbed. At most, its spiritual power and soul have transformed close to a divine level."

"We underestimated it."

Biqi asked with some concern, "Will its actions disturb the sacred places of the mainland's divine heritage? Like the Martial Soul Hall?"

"It shouldn't," Di Tian shook his head. "There's the aura of our lord covering this place. The divine beings in the divine realm shouldn't sense it... However, with the abilities of the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, it can't escape from this Star Dou Great Forest. I'll have the King of Ten Thousand Beasts seal off several important exits of the forest, and the Vermilion King can go search."

"But what if our actions draw the attention of humans?"

Currently, there weren't many humans who could explore the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest. But if our actions were too conspicuous, it wouldn't be wonderful.

There are also strong humans among them.

"Just search as discreetly as possible. If that bug runs to the outskirts, consider it lucky." After pondering for a moment, Di Tian added to his previous command, "Anyway, most of the energy in its body has already been drained. Even if we find its spiritual energy, we won't be able to use it."

For Di Tian and the others, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, now a million-year soul beast, had become superfluous. Capturing it would only be a precaution against its foolishness, revealing their existence to humans...

"Haha, I'm free!"

With the power emanating from becoming a million-year soul beast in that instant, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm confused all the soul beasts and Xiao Wu in the cave, and fled. At this moment, it was joyfully burrowing through the earth, arriving at the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest.

"It's just a pity about my million-year cultivation..."

"Pah!"

"You bastards, and that rabbit, just you wait, I'll make you pay!"

"But, how should I seek revenge?"

The million-year soul beast, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, had achieved its goal, but its cultivation was almost completely lost. Although its formidable spiritual energy still remained, it was difficult for it to develop strong offensive skills, all being auxiliary abilities.

After much consideration, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm felt that it couldn't seek revenge alone; it needed to leverage the power of others.

For example: human soul masters.

"A soul master's advancement in cultivation requires soul rings of soul beasts. So, making those damn guys become the soul rings chosen by me wouldn't that be the best revenge?"

"With my prowess, I can definitely cultivate a deity. By then, not only can I ascend to become a true god myself, but I can also bring along my beloved Bing Bing."

"Hehe, killing two birds with one stone, just thinking about it excites me."

So, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm took action. Using its detection skills, it found a team of seven people who had come to hunt soul beasts.

If one looked closely, they would notice that the middle-aged leader was wearing the elder robe of the Martial Soul Hall, with a shiny golden badge engraved with the words "Magic Bear" on his chest.

This was the symbol of a Titled Douluo.

The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm also sensed the opponent's powerful soul power and, excited, immediately jumped out.

"Halt!"

Devil Bear Titled Douluo immediately shouted, surveying the creature before him. He was stunned, "Ice Silkworm? Why would such a soul beast appear on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest?"

"Hehe, of course, it's because I am the one-of-a-kind million-year soul beast!" The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm spoke, releasing an invisible mental pressure. The immense oppression made the Devil Bear Douluo Titled Douluo and the six Martial Soul Hall members behind him dare not move.

Speaking human language!

Mental coercion!

This was a hundred-thousand-year soul beast!

The Devil Bear Douluo Titled Douluo felt like he was seeing things. It was one thing to encounter an Ice Silkworm in the Star Dou Great Forest, but a hundred-thousand-year soul beast... No, this Ice Silkworm claimed to be a million-year soul beast.

Could soul beasts reach a million years?

"Don't be afraid, I'm giving you an opportunity," the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm chuckled, "As soul masters cultivate, they aim to break through the hundredth rank and become gods. We soul beasts aim for the same. Your soul power is immense, you should be a Titled Douluo, right?"

"Yes, respected million-year Ice Silkworm, sir." Feeling the slightly reduced mental pressure imposed on himself, the Devil Bear Douluo Titled Douluo could speak and respectfully responded.

"That's good. I will sacrifice to you, allowing you to possess a tenth soul ring!" The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's immense mental pressure and ice attributes sealed the space within a fifty-meter radius. "Moreover, I will also grant you a second martial soul. In the future, you will need to ascend to become a god with me and then teach a lesson to those bastards in the Star Dou Great Forest who absorbed my cultivation."

As he spoke, without waiting for the Devil Bear Titled Douluo to wonder if this was a gift from heaven, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's massive mental energy had already recklessly poured into the Devil Bear Titled Douluo's body, especially within his brain.

Then—

Boom!

The Devil Bear's eyes bulged with fury, his entire brain exploded, falling into a pool of blood.

A generation of Titled Douluo met their demise just like that.

"Ah? So weak, can't withstand my spiritual energy?" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was puzzled, looking at the remaining six people. "Maybe it's an incompatible attribute. Anyway, there are still six people, can try six times."

"Gulu!"

The remaining six people kept swallowing saliva. One of them suddenly bit their tongue to force themselves awake from Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's spiritual intimidation, then dashed towards the outskirts of the Star Dou Forest without looking back.

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's strength wasn't formidable. Even with spiritual intimidation, it was merely that, intimidation without actual attacking capability. If only the Devil Bear Douluo had reacted sooner, perhaps he wouldn't have died.

After all, the guy who ran away by biting his tongue was only a quasi Soul Saint of level seventy.

If even he could break free from the spiritual intimidation, what about the Bear King Douluo?

Unfortunately, the Devil Bear Douluo was frightened by Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's "million years of cultivation."

"One ran away."

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm experimented with the remaining five people, but none could withstand his spiritual energy, all dying from brain explosions.

After testing five people, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm also summarized some patterns. It wasn't that these people were too weak, but their attributes didn't match his spiritual attribute.

"So, brother needs to find humans with spiritual attribute martial souls, followed by ice attribute. However, spiritual attribute is still the best." After determining what kind of martial souls he should seek, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm climbed over the six corpses and continued to roam the outskirts of the Star Dou Forest, sensing the martial soul attributes of Soul Masters who came to hunt soul beasts.

Or perhaps it was fate, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm indeed encountered a human with a spiritual attribute martial soul, and it appeared out of thin air, as if traversing from another dimension.

Other dimensions...

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm had heard of them, but each dimension had its own rules. Did other dimensions also have martial souls?

Unable to understand, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm decided not to dwell on it, instead suddenly appearing in front of the person and saying, "Young man, your opportunity has arrived. I'm going to become your soul ring, the first-ever million-year-grade wisdom soul ring!"

The young man with eyes as bright as stars blinked, showing a hint of doubt. "I've crossed over twice?"

"Crossed over? Is that an appropriate term for someone from another dimension like you? Anyway, obediently become my companion, hm-hm-hm, rest assured, I'll be very careful, it won't hurt..." Tianmeng Ice Silkworm smirked lecherously, offering a sacrifice to the young man before delving into his spiritual sea, and then—

Encountered another self.

"Damn! Who the hell are you? Daring to steal from me! And you even look like me!"

"I should be you, just from a different time and space. According to Huo Yuhao, it's something about multiple universes... The reason why I came to your timeline is because I encountered strange temporal turbulence." Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, already present in Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea, explained, "But sacrificing yourself to Huo Yuhao is the wisest choice. Let's work together. In the future, we can make Huo Yuhao have four martial souls, then defeat Tang San, and occupy the God Realm, hehehe!"

The recently arrived Tianmeng Ice Silkworm: "..."

Always felt the other self wasn't very bright. By the way, who's Tang San?

After Tianmeng Ice Silkworm finished sacrificing, he also understood Huo Yuhao's memories, discovering that this guy was actually a fusion freak, with experiences from two lifetimes.

And through his memories, Dou Yitianmeng also learned who Tang San was—a God King who combined the Sea God and Asura God, and Xiao Wu... wasn't she the transformed soul beast brought by Emperor Tian to absorb his cultivation?

The plot seems a bit different.

However, Dou Yitianmeng didn't say much, just treating it as a deviation between the novel and reality, then said to Huo Yuhao, "It seems you can't go back to your timeline. According to the plot in your mind, the era I'm in should be the first part of 'Douluo Continent', and Xiao Wu is still young, around thirteen or fourteen according to her transformation age."

"Is that so? Then that little bastard Tang San should have joined Shrek Academy, and even Blazing Academy should have been renamed Shrek Academy." Huo Yuhao's eyes gleamed, "What do you think about me going to snatch Xiao Wu?"

"I raise all my feet in agreement." Dou Yitianmeng's soul actually raised all his feet, chuckling, "Let's try to win over Tang the Great God King! Hehehe!"

Dou Er Tian Meng also chuckled, "Very good. During this period of Dou One, Tang the Great God King is relatively weak, as long as we're cautious of his poison-infused hidden weapons, we'll be fine. We don't know how to detoxify."

Huo Yuhao also imitated Blackbeard's laughter, "Zehahaha~"

Two bugs and a person, all laughed lecherously...

...

Back to half a month ago—

The extreme north.

A ten thousand year old Ice Phoenix was pulled down by Tang San using Blue Silver Emperor, dragged in front of Guang Ling, who said, "Shoot it, then absorb its soul ring. With your spiritual power, you should withstand the soul shock."

"Thank you, San Ge." Guang Ling released his Sun Moon Divine Bow, the bowstring pulled like a full moon, gathering a soul power arrow, then released.

Swish—

The arrow pierced through the Ice Phoenix's eye, stabbed into its brain, then emerged from the other eye.

Immediately, the Ice Phoenix stopped struggling. A black soul ring slowly emerged from its body, exceptionally dazzling in the ice and snow.

Guang Ling took a deep breath, adjusted his state within the windbreak constructed by Tang San's Blue Silver Emperor, then used soul power to guide the soul ring, letting it fit into the Sun Moon Divine Bow, starting the absorption of the fourth soul ring.

Two hours later, Guang Ling opened his eyes, showing joy. "San Ge, I succeeded in absorption, the effect is just as you expected. Condensing an ice attribute arrow. Once it hits the target, it will explode, covering the enemy in ice and snow, freezing them."

As he spoke, Guang Ling used his fourth soul skill. A blue ice arrow condensed, emitting traces of cold air.

Whoosh—

The frost-blue arrow shot out, hitting an iceberg fifty meters away, then the aura of ice and snow erupted from the arrow, rapidly spreading white and blue ice and snow around the iceberg.

"I call it the Frosty Aura. What do you think?" Guang Ling asked expectantly.

"The name works."

Tang San examined Guang Ling's Sunmoon Divine Bow. On its bow body, there were already four colors: red, gold, blue, and white. The blades on both sides of the bow became sharper, and the feathers at the end became more exaggerated. Additionally, there were some transparent blue and white interspersed ice crystals floating around.

After obtaining the fourth soul ring, Guang Ling's martial soul evolved again. Each time he used the fourth soul skill, he would absorb the energy of the ice attribute to strengthen himself.

With the addition of the previous three attributes, metal, light, and lightning, Guang Ling's Sunmoon Divine Bow now possessed four attributes.

"Let's go, we should head back. Xiao Wu is probably waiting anxiously outside the Star Dou Great Forest."

Xiao Wu had taken leave with them. Whether she returned to the Tiandou Royal Academy first or they did, it wouldn't be appropriate. It was better for everyone to go back together.

Half a month later.

Tang San and Guang Ling, using the Traveler's Step from the Enjoying Wind Technique, swiftly rushed to a town on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest. They found Xiao Wu.

"Have you obtained your soul ring?" Xiao Wu looked at the taller Guang Ling and asked with concern.

"I have, a million-year-level one. The soul skill is Frosty Aura, but the main thing is the improvement to my martial soul itself. Now, the quality of my Sunmoon Divine Bow's martial soul is comparable to some powerful weapon martial souls." Guang Ling narrowed his crescent eyes, very pleased with the evolution of his martial soul. "Sister Xiao Wu, have you obtained your fifth soul ring?"

"Naturally, and it's a fifty-thousand-year soul ring." Xiao Wu put her hand on her waist, and with the other hand, gestured a "five" towards Guang Ling. "And, this time, I gained a great benefit. San Ge, can you tell?"

Tang San looked closely and saw Xiao Wu's vigorous blood and long-lasting breath. He was surprised. "The Jade Bone Golden Muscle Divine Stored Technique, have you fully practiced the Jade Bone stage?"

"Exactly!" Xiao Wu's chin lifted thirty degrees, quite proud. "This is the great benefit I obtained from a big caterpillar."

The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm!

Tang San immediately thought of the lucky and unlucky million-year soul beast. He didn't expect Xiao Wu to be lucky enough to absorb the energy from that "experience pack."

In this way, Xiao Wu must have gained the attention of those fierce beasts, but didn't they look down on transformed soul beasts?

Unable to comprehend... Huh?

In an instant, Tang San sensed someone probing him with spiritual power. He immediately turned his head, paused his steps, and used the Traveler's Step, covering a hundred meters in one step, two steps covering two hundred meters.

In an instant, he arrived in front of the person who had probed him with spiritual power.

Xiao Wu and Guang Ling followed closely.

The person in front was dressed in clothes similar to modern ones, which were quite different from the popular styles of this era. He had short black hair and a relatively ordinary face. The most prominent feature was his bright eyes.

"Who are you? Why did you probe us with spiritual power just now?" Tang San's expression was indifferent, his tone cold.

"I... I'm called Huo Yuhao."

Huo Yuhao trembled all over, quite scared. He never expected that just by using a soul skill to probe a little, he would be discovered.

Moreover, according to the two Tianmeng Ice Silkworms in his mental sea, the person in front of him, Tang San, had a vast and profound spiritual power, almost reaching the level of Spiritual Domain, just one step away from Spiritual Domain. This kind of spiritual power realm was comparable to the Tianmeng Ice Silkworms, who had immense spiritual power but couldn't fully utilize it.

More importantly, before he came here through the temporal turbulence, he hadn't learned Tang Sect's skills yet. But the Tang San in front of him was a Purple Demon Eye user!

In terms of spiritual power attacks, Huo Yuhao didn't dare to say that he could surpass the other party.

However, why was Tang San so strong?

Could it be that he had been reborn?

"I didn't ask for your name, I asked why you used spiritual power to probe us?" Tang San realized that the guy in front of him was another transmigrator, not the original Huo Yuhao, from another timeline. "Don't you know that casually using spiritual power to probe others, even if discovered, can lead to being killed without anyone seeking justice for you?"
