Chapter 238 Establishing a Soul Beast Civilization

"Really?"

Qiluo Tulip, who had originally been thinking about how to persuade Su Mo to let her become his soul spirit, immediately gave up the idea after hearing that they could leave the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well and move around freely.

Becoming Su Mo's soul is certainly a good choice.

But for these immortal herbs who had spent 20,000 years in the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, freedom was an unattainable dream.

Seeing Qiluo Tulip's excited expression, Su Mo gave them a heads-up beforehand. "However, there's no one in that city right now."

"fine!"

Qiluo Tulip quickly waved her hand.

For these immortal herbs, being able to leave the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well and see the outside world is already enough.

Su Mo nodded, then turned to look at Hyotei. "Let's go back!"

"Um!"

Hyotei nodded, and with a wave of his hand, led Su Mo back to his residence.

"Finally back! I'm exhausted!"

Upon returning to his residence, Hyotei kicked off his shoes and let out a soft, alluring yet weary groan.

Then, as if relieved, she collapsed onto the sofa, her fair little feet swinging in mid-air.

Su Mo chuckled and said, "What are you tired of? I'm the one who's exhausted."

Hyotei turned her face away and said righteously, "Su Mo, how can you be so heartless?"

"I was afraid something would happen to you, so I kept a close watch on you for a week without sleep, fearing that you would explode halfway through your body refinement."

As Hyotei spoke, his voice suddenly lowered a little, carrying a hint of nervousness he was reluctant to admit: "I don't want anything to happen to you."

Su Mo was slightly taken aback, but a gentle smile quickly appeared on her lips. "Then thank you for your hard work, Lord Hyotei!"

"snort!"

Hyotei lay sprawled on the sofa, muttering softly, "At least you still have some conscience!"

Su Mo walked over and sat down next to Hyotei, grabbed Hyotei's little feet, and started massaging them.

After a few symbolic resistances, Hyotei gave in to Su Mo's will.

While Su Mo was focused on giving Hyotei a foot massage, Hyotei suddenly turned her head and looked at Su Mo curiously: "By the way, Su Mo, why didn't you just swallow all those immortal herbs?"

"It would be more in your interest to devour and refine them all."

Upon hearing Ice Emperor's speech, Liehuo Xingjiaoshu, who resided in Su Mo's spiritual sea, quickly shrank back.

Hyotei is too ruthless!

They're already in this state, and she still wants to instigate Su Mo to attack them.

Su Mo subconsciously stopped what he was doing, glanced out the window with a complicated expression, and then slowly said, "Because I plan to establish a completely new order for the soul beasts."

"A completely new order?"

Hyotei looked at Su Mo with a puzzled expression.

"Um!"

Su Mo nodded, released Bingdi's small foot, stood up, and said firmly, "An order that allows soul beasts to live and develop in peace."

In Su Mo's view, there wasn't much difference between ninja beasts and soul beasts.

Since ninja beasts can establish their own society and speak human language, there is no reason why soul beasts cannot do the same.

Moreover, it's not that no civilization has ever arisen among the soul beasts.

However, the civilization of soul beasts is in an extremely backward primitive society, and has not evolved further.

What Su Mo needs to do is to promote the evolution of the soul beast civilization.

Now, not only the Ice Emperor, but even the Snow Emperor inside Su Mo's body looked at Su Mo in disbelief.

She never expected Su Mo to have such a grand idea.

After ascending to the God Realm, she often discussed with the Evil Emperor why soul beasts were suppressed by humans.

The final conclusion was that, unlike humans, the soul beasts did not develop a unified system; each race fought each other, engaging in internal conflicts and attrition.

If soul beasts could establish a unified social system like humans.

No matter how advanced human soul-guided technology becomes, soul beasts should not have fallen to this state.

How easy is it to establish a unified system among soul beasts?

The mere fact that ordinary soul beasts can only develop sentience after ten thousand years is enough to kill off this idea.

Thinking of this, Xue Di looked at Su Mo with curiosity, a hint of curiosity flashing in her beautiful eyes.

Based on her understanding of Su Mo, if Su Mo said that, it certainly wasn't unfounded.

"But----"

Upon hearing Su Mo's answer, Hyotei looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

"I know what you're trying to say. You're just saying that soul beasts develop their intelligence too late, making them difficult to control their ferocity."

"Uh-huh!"

Xinbingdi and Xuedi nodded in unison.

"Then let me ask you, before your people developed sentience, how did they obey your commands?"

Upon hearing this, Hyotei proudly boasted, "Of course, it's because my Ice Jade Scorpion clan has its own language!"

As the dominant race in the far north, the Ice Jade Scorpion race has its own culture, language, and social system.

"Since you Ice Jade Scorpions have your own language of communication, why do you say that your people have not developed sentience?"

Su Mo smiled and asked in return.

"this----"

Hyotei was momentarily at a loss; she didn't seem to have considered this situation before.

If her people truly lacked intelligence, they should theoretically be unable to obey her commands.

But the truth is, even her newborn members of the tribe can integrate into the tribe and obey her commands after a period of instruction.

Upon hearing this, Xue Di frowned and fell into deep thought.

Suddenly, Hyotei seemed to realize something, his eyes lit up, and he quickly jumped up from the sofa, shouting to Su Mo with barely concealed excitement, "I know!"

"Su Mo, what you're actually trying to say is that we soul beasts are no less intelligent than humans, right?"

After saying that, Hyotei looked at Su Mo with a face full of longing for praise.

"————"

Upon hearing Hyotei's reply, Su Mo was speechless and didn't know what to say.

Seeing that Su Mo remained silent, Hyotei subconsciously shrank back, her voice unconsciously lowering, "Did I say something wrong?"

Seeing that Hyotei couldn't understand her meaning, Su Mo took a deep breath and said, "Hyotei, you're right!"

"But what I really want to say is that soul beasts cannot establish order like humans, mainly because the communication efficiency between soul beasts is too low."

"Each soul beast race has its own unique language system."

"Unless both sides cultivate for 100,000 years, they will not be able to communicate with soul beasts outside their own race."

"This greatly hinders the birth and evolution of the Soul Beast civilization."

After hearing Su Mo's explanation, Bing Di suddenly realized and belatedly said, "So Su Mo, you kept them so that they could communicate with other plant-type soul beasts."

"Um!"

Su Mo nodded.

The Qiluo Tulip and other immortal herbs can be said to be at the pinnacle of plant-type soul beasts.

With them around, he didn't need to put in much effort to care about the plant-type soul beasts.

Just give the orders to Qiluo Tulip and the others, and let them carry them out.

"But you still haven't solved the communication problem, have you?"

Hyotei looked at Su Mo with some confusion.

Although Qiluo Tulip and others can communicate with other plant-type soul beasts, the fundamental problem has only been alleviated, not changed at all.

Once Qiluo, Tulip, and the others die, everything will return to normal.

"Then guess why I had them communicate with other plant-type spirit beasts?"

Su Mo subtly reminded him.

"You want them to teach other plant-type soul beasts the common language?"

Hyotei immediately understood Su Mo's intention.

But they soon realized another problem.

"Su Mo, what do you plan to use as the common language?"

"Isn't this readily available?"

Su Mo shrugged.
