Douluo Continent: Tonight, a Fairy Tale Descends.

Moreover, the surrounding area was full of taciturn spirit beasts, some as cold as Di Tian, ​​others as fierce as Chi Wang; there wasn't a single one to chat with.

The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm is a million-year-old spirit beast with a mental ability. Its thoughts could circle the Douluo Continent three times, but it doesn't even have anything to talk about. It's going crazy!

Until the nine-colored deer, its entire body radiating nine-colored divine light and exuding a peaceful and pure aura, appeared.

A mythical beast! This is a mythical beast! And it looks very approachable!

The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm felt a ray of light finally shine into its dark silkworm life. It immediately regarded the Nine-Colored Deer as its only hope for escape, after all, this auspicious beast looked like a kind and simple soul beast.

Therefore, every now and then it would use its spiritual power to harass... no, to communicate, trying to persuade this auspicious beast to help it escape from its suffering.

Chapter 92 You have an incredibly bright future!

At first, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm used a pitiful tactic: "Lord Auspicious Beast, save me! I'm such a miserable silkworm! I'm locked up here in the dark, and my energy is almost completely drained... sob sob..."

The nine-colored deer responded gently, but could do nothing to help.

Later, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm switched to enticement: "Lord Auspicious Beast, if you let me out, I'll follow you from now on! I have a million years of cultivation, and although I can't fight, my mental strength is strong! I can help you command the beasts..."

The nine-colored deer remained unmoved; it was peaceful by nature and had no interest in commanding other beasts.

He fought and lost repeatedly, and fought and lost repeatedly.

The million-year-old silkworm brain of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm worked quickly, and finally it came up with a new breakthrough!

Through its spiritual perception, it discovered the little girl, Xiao Wu, who often accompanied the Nine-Colored Deer!

Tianmeng Bingcan keenly sensed that the little girl was a soul beast in human form!

A 100,000-year-old soul beast has transformed into a human!

This discovery made the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm so excited that it almost shed its skin on the spot! A brilliant, unprecedented plan instantly took shape in its mind.

Its Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, with a cultivation of millions of years, appears glamorous but is actually quite embarrassing.

His combat power is almost zero; he possesses immense energy and mental strength, yet he cannot become a god on his own.

It knew better than anyone how difficult the path to godhood was for a soul beast.

but!

It would be much easier for humans to become gods!

If it could find a human with exceptional talent, offer itself as a sacrifice, become the other's intelligent soul ring, merge with the other's soul, and assist the other in becoming a god, wouldn't it indirectly achieve godhood and gain eternal life?

And right here, there is a perfect candidate!

A 100,000-year-old soft-boned rabbit has transformed into human form!

As we all know, a 100,000-year-old soul beast that transforms into a human will have the most outstanding talents among humans!

Moreover, both the little rabbit and the creature are soul beasts, so they should have a common language, right?

So, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm once again set its sights on the Nine-Colored Deer.

It adjusted its mental fluctuations to make itself sound more serene.

"Respected auspicious beast~ You see, I always want to leave, but it's not entirely for my own sake!" It tried to make its voice sound noble.

"I, Tianmeng, have cultivated diligently for millions of years and know firsthand how difficult it is for soul beasts to cultivate, let alone become gods. But recently, after much contemplation, I have finally discovered a shortcut!"

"The young lady Xiao Wu beside you is a 100,000-year-old soul beast in human form, possessing unparalleled talent and a peerless genius! She is one of the most promising candidates to become a god! If you help me leave this place, I am willing to sacrifice myself and become Xiao Wu's wisdom soul ring! I will offer her my million years of spiritual power and a portion of my cultivation to help her improve rapidly and clear away the obstacles on her path to godhood! At that time, when she achieves godhood, you, as her guide and partner, will naturally also have performed immeasurable merit!"

Tianmeng Bingcan spoke eloquently, portraying himself as a selfless devotee willing to sacrifice himself for the future of the Soul Beasts.

However, what came from the other end of the spirit was still the gentle yet firm rejection of the Nine-Colored Deer.

Although the Nine-Colored Deer is kind, it is not stupid. Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's words sound nice, but they are obviously unreliable.

Moreover, helping Tianmeng escape? It simply cannot do that.

Furthermore, it did not want to anger Emperor Tian.

Moreover, it always felt that the idea of ​​the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm was too far-fetched and unreliable.

Moreover, the risk is too great; it cannot place Xiao Wu in unknown dangers for the sake of a vague idea.

"Sigh... Lord Ruishou, please reconsider! Opportunity knocks but once!" Tianmeng Bingcan kept muttering, unwilling to give up.

The Nine-Colored Deer ceased its response, severing its spiritual connection with the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, and continued to quietly bathe in the energy of the Lake of Life.

Tianmeng Bingcan: "..." Oops! Another failure!

……

Having failed to persuade the Nine-Colored Deer, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm rolled around at the bottom of the lake in frustration, stirring up a ripple of energy.

But its million-year lifespan is not for nothing; its resilience is absolutely top-notch among soul beasts.

If one path is blocked, then try another!

Since you can't get through to the auspicious beast, why not just go directly to the owner?

That little girl named Xiao Wu, a 100,000-year-old soft-boned rabbit in human form, seems easier to fool than the auspicious beast.

No, it's much easier to communicate!

Without hesitation, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm immediately concentrated its immense spiritual power and began to carefully penetrate the layers of seals and energy barriers of the Lake of Life, just as it had done when searching for the Nine-Colored Deer, meticulously searching for Xiao Wu's spiritual fluctuations.

At this moment, Xiao Wu was sitting by the lake, keeping the Nine-Colored Deer company, and thinking about her mother and the human world outside the Star Dou Great Forest with a somewhat sullen mood.

Although the beast tide had passed, her disgust for the greedy humans outside had not diminished in the slightest.

Just then, a sudden, somewhat flattering and mysterious voice rang in her mind.

Hey! Pretty and cute little sister~ Hello there!

"Who?" Xiao Wu was so startled she almost jumped up from the lakeside; her pink scorpion braids stood on end.

She looked around warily. Da Ming and Er Ming were nearby. Who would dare to use their mental power to spy on her? Besides, this was the core area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest, where even 100,000-year-old soul beasts were just small karami.

Ever since Xiao Wu came to the Lake of Life with the Nine-Colored Deer, her horizons have broadened considerably.

She used to think that with Daming, Erming, and her mother by her side, she could live happily and carefree in the Star Dou Great Forest.

But now she realizes that the 100,000-year-old soul beast is just the beginning.

"Don't be afraid! I don't mean any harm!" Tianmeng Bingcan quickly reassured her, trying her best to make her voice sound harmless.

"I am your friend from the bottom of the lake! I am the handsome, powerful, and helpful million-year-old soul beast, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm!"

A million-year-old soul beast? At the bottom of the lake?

Xiao Wu was stunned for a moment. She was no innocent little rabbit who knew nothing. How could a million-year-old soul beast be so powerful? Why would it suddenly come to her and say it wanted to help her?

There's no such thing as a free lunch.

Xiao Wu immediately turned to look at the nine-colored deer beside her and conveyed the message to it.

After listening to Xiao Wu's description, the Nine-Colored Deer gently replied to her, "Don't be afraid, Xiao Wu. It is the Ice Silkworm that I told you about, which was sealed by Di Tian. Don't worry, it can't get out."

With the confirmation and reminder from the Nine-Colored Deer, Xiao Wu felt more confident.

She composed herself and mentally replied, "Oh, it's you. What do you need?"

When Tianmeng Ice Silkworm saw that Xiaowu was paying attention to it, it immediately perked up and embellished the same words it had said to the Nine-Colored Deer, delivering them with even more vivid expression.

"Little Wu! I've been watching you for a long time! You are innocent, lively, and adorable, and your talent is one in a million! As a 100,000-year-old soul beast in human form, you have an incredibly bright future!"

Chapter 93 Godot's Gathering

Tianmeng Bingcan first showered Xiaowu with praise, after all, she needed to gain her trust first.

Xiao Wu: "..." Unsolicited kindness is either a trick or a theft.

"But!" After her boasting ended, Tianmeng Bingcan immediately changed her tone and became serious.

"The path of cultivation is fraught with difficulties and dangers! How much time would it take you to reach the final stage of Soul Master on your own? How many dangers would you have to endure? Just thinking about it makes your heart ache!"

"So what?" Xiao Wu remained unmoved.

"Therefore! I, the great million-year-old soul beast, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, am willing to help you!" It finally revealed its true intentions.

"If you're willing to do me a small favor—find a way to get Di Tian and the others to let me leave this damned lake bottom—I'll immediately offer myself to you as your Wisdom Soul Ring! Just think, a million-year Soul Ring! And a Wisdom Soul Ring at that! What I can give you isn't just Soul Skills, but also my million years of spiritual power and cultivation experience! It will allow your Soul Power cultivation speed to advance by leaps and bounds, easily surpassing the Title Douluo level and heading straight for the God level! At that time, we'll be one, becoming gods together, roaming freely between heaven and earth—wouldn't that be wonderful?"

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was trying to paint a beautiful picture to attract Xiaowu.

The temptation to quickly improve one's strength and become a god as soon as possible is irresistible to any soul master, let alone Xiao Wu, who has a blood feud with soul masters.

However, after listening, Xiao Wu's big pink eyes did not show any longing, but instead flashed a trace of wariness and disgust.

She remembered her mother Arou's teachings and the admonitions of Daming and Erming.

Strength must be acquired through hard work; shortcuts often come with great risks.

Moreover, there must be a reason why Di Tian locked this guy up!

A million-year-old soul beast willingly sacrificed itself for me?

It sounds incredibly unreliable. Besides, is Sister Xiaowu the kind of soul beast who would betray her principles for power—or rather, easily believe the words of strangers?

"Hmph!" Xiao Wu snorted coldly in her mind.

"You talk a good game! Who knows if you're lying? Di Tian locked you up, you must have done something bad! I won't fall for it! You want to get out? No way! Just stay down there!"

After saying that, Xiao Wu imitated the Nine-Colored Deer, ignoring Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, and subconsciously moved closer to the Nine-Colored Deer, as if she felt safer that way.

Deep in the lake, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm was once again rejected, and its translucent white body seemed to dim slightly.

"Aaaaaah! How can they all be like this! They won't even take a million-year soul ring for free? Are young soul beasts these days so hard to fool?!"

The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm roared silently at the bottom of the lake, so frustrated that it almost bit off its own silk.

He died before achieving his goal, leaving Tianmeng with tears in his eyes!

But will it give up?

Obviously not.

"The hard approach won't work, and the soft approach won't work either. It seems we need to change our strategy and play the long game to catch the big fish."

……

Tian Dou City, Imperial Palace.

Eva leaned lazily against the soft couch, listening to Lin Wan briefly recount his breakthrough during this trip.

When she heard that Lin Wan had reached level 43 and obtained a ten-thousand-year soul ring, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, which seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, and then turned into intense interest.

“The fourth ring of the eternal ring, my dear cousin, every time you appear, you always surprise others.” Eva’s red lips curled up slightly, her fingertips lightly tapping the armrest.

"Once word gets out about your soul ring configuration, I'm afraid all the old guys in Heaven Dou City will be getting restless. Do you need me to deflect some unnecessary concern for you?"

Lin Wan remained calm and said indifferently, "Thank you for your kindness, cousin, but there's no need to trouble yourself. I already have a plan, and I'm not returning to the city alone this time."

“Oh?” Eva raised an eyebrow, signaling him to continue.

“Ms. Godot is traveling with me,” Lin Wan said.

"Since occupying that treasure land, she has devoted herself to research and has refined a lot of magic potions. Now she needs some special materials. Tiandou City is a gathering place for resources, making it the best place to trade. She came here for two reasons: first, to collect materials, and second, to take this opportunity to make her name, Geduo, resound throughout Tiandou City."

Eva instantly understood, her eyes flashing with a mixture of admiration and calculation.

"Brilliant! You're trying to divert everyone's attention from you to that Lady Gothel and her magical potion? This will satisfy their curiosity, allow everyone to get what they want, and save them a lot of trouble."

"It's just mutually beneficial," Lin Wan nodded.

"They are obsessed with the mysteries of Soul Rings, and Ms. Gothel happens to have something they can't refuse. A fair trade, everyone's happy."

“Very good. How can I help you?” Eva’s smile widened.

“We will temporarily borrow a corner of my cousin’s residence as Ms. Ge Duo’s temporary residence and trading venue. She is new to Tian Dou and needs a sufficiently strong guarantor to prevent scoundrels from disturbing her,” Lin Wan said.

In Lin Wan and Ge Duo's view, exchanging some potions with decent effects, which were not difficult for Ge Duo to refine, for rare and precious natural treasures that were hard to find in the outside world was an extremely worthwhile deal.

This not only allowed them to obtain more raw materials, but also helped them establish Gedo's reputation throughout the entire Tiandou region.

“It’s nothing,” Eva agreed.

……

After Lin Wan returned to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, without him having to make a special announcement, the news of his current level of 43 and his fourth soul ring of ten thousand years spread throughout the entire Heaven Dou City in an instant.

In the later stages of Soul Master cultivation, the slower the cultivation speed becomes.
