Douluo Continent: I, Long Aotian, will not be a supporting character.

Ji Juechen returned to the Body Sect with Long Aotian and the others. The Body Sect once again welcomed a prodigy. Ao Yumou also successfully advanced to the title of Douluo. Du Busi was overjoyed and, together with Du Bisi, presided over another sect celebration to jointly celebrate the great event of the Body Sect.

After staying at home for a while, the holiday ended, and Long Aotian and the others returned to Di'ao Academy.

Ji Juechen also enrolled with them. Ji Juechen was a year older than Long Aotian, Vina and others. Although he had also reached the level of a three-ring Soul Master, he was already past the enrollment age of Di'ao Academy. However, with the recommendation of the Body Sect and Ji Juechen's extraordinary talent after reshaping his Martial Soul, he was able to enroll in Di'ao Academy as a transfer student, in the same class as Long Aotian, Vina, Ye Guyi and others.

From then on, the first class of freshmen at Di'ao Academy had a "madman" who kept challenging others, not only his classmates but also his seniors, all in order to hone his swordsmanship and refine his sword body. Soon, he earned the reputation of "Heavenly Sword Maniac".

Currently, the five most popular rising stars in the first grade are none other than "Golden Martial God Long Aotian", "Golden Dragon Girl Jin Ni", "Lotus Goddess Vina", "Angel Goddess Ye Guyi", and "Heavenly Sword Maniac Ji Juechen".

Another semester of study has passed. By the end of the first year at Di'ao Academy, Long Aotian had reached level 43. Jin Ni followed closely behind, also reaching level 43. Vina also broke through to level 40 this semester and obtained her fourth soul ring, becoming a Soul Master. Ye Guyi and Ji Juechen both reached level 36, not far from level 40.

As for Chen Lu, Gu Tong, and Wang Yanfeng, Chen Yu, Jiang Yixi, and others who are one level higher, although they are slightly weaker than Long Aotian and the other five, they have all reached the Soul Venerable level.

The day of the holiday finally arrived, and all the first-grade students were filled with excitement. This meant that they had passed the first-year student stage and would be in second grade the next time school started.

During the holiday, Ji Juechen, Ye Guyi, Wang Yanfeng, and others returned to the Body Sect, while Long Aotian and Vina did not return with them.

Long Aotian specifically instructed them to tell their parents after returning to the sect that he and Vina had gone to visit Jin Ni's family, and therefore they would not be going home for the holiday.

Of course, this was just an excuse to appease his parents. Jin Ni's so-called "home" was actually the Star Dou Great Forest. Long Aotian didn't want to wander around in front of those ferocious beasts right now. If any of them took a dislike to him, his small body couldn't withstand it.

Of course, Long Aotian is indeed going to the Star Dou Great Forest.

Because Long Aotian was planning to exploit the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm and Electrolux.

According to the timeline of Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm escaped from the core forbidden zone and sacrificed itself to Huo Yuhao to become a Wisdom Soul Ring. After that, Huo Yuhao enrolled in Shrek Academy. Huo Yuhao and the Lan Luoluo and Lan Susu sisters from the Body Sect were in the same year, and the Lan Luoluo and Lan Susu sisters will also be enrolling this year. If the calculation is correct, then the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm should have already escaped from the imprisonment of those ferocious beasts and should now be hiding in some corner of the Star Dou Great Forest, waiting for a Spirit-type Soul Master to sacrifice itself.

Long Aotian chose this time to go to the Star Dou Great Forest to intercept Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Ilex. Long Aotian knew the original plot well. In order to defy fate and break the shackles of the God Realm from Tang San, he had to seize opportunities. Long Aotian had already obtained the immortal herbs of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. Now that the time had come for Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Ilex to appear, he could not miss it. He had to plunder all the opportunities that originally belonged to the "Chosen One".

Along with Vina and Jin Ni, Long Aotian also wanted to be on the safe side. Long Aotian's second martial soul, Yin-Yang Eyes, was also a mental martial soul, while Vina's Brain was a standard mental martial soul. As for Jin Ni, as an imperial auspicious beast, she was also a top-tier mental martial soul. Long Aotian didn't believe that three top-tier mental martial souls couldn't attract the attention of a single Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm.

At that time, no matter who Tianmeng Ice Silkworm sacrifices to, it will all be on Long Aotian's side, and Long Aotian will have achieved his goal.

As for Electrolux, Long Aotian had also made ample preparations. Not only did he carry with him the Life Gold obtained from the 100,000-year-old golden tortoiseshell, but he also used the channels of the Body Sect to bid for the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife in the Star Luo Empire. With these two items, Electrolux's sliver of incomplete divine soul would definitely be attracted.

Long Aotian also told Vina and Jin Ni about his plan in its entirety. He didn't hide much from these two girls, after all, they were people whose fates were connected to his and who were already very close to him.

As for how he learned about the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, it was through his own perception of the power of destiny.

Upon learning of Long Aotian's plan, both Vina and Jin Ni were extremely excited. That was a million-year-old spiritual beast! Moreover, Jin Ni had previously lived in the core restricted area. Although she had never seen the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, she had heard about it from the ferocious beasts, who had imprisoned it. She knew that this so-called million-year-old spiritual beast was indeed real.

In the Star Dou Great Forest, Long Aotian, Vina, and Jin Ni had already arrived at the outer area.

Long Aotian had no way of knowing the exact location of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm in the Star Dou Great Forest, so he decided to search for it in the same way he searched for the 100,000-year-old Golden Tortoise Shell.

Although the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, a million-year-old soul beast, had its life force almost completely drained by the ferocious beasts in the core forbidden zone, it still retained a million years of spiritual power. The perception ability of the Yin-Yang Eyes should be able to trigger this level of energy.

Furthermore, if the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm senses the spiritual talents of Long Aotian, Vina, and Jin Ni, it might take the initiative to appear.

Because the three of them activated their spiritual power together, which spread towards the Star Dou Great Forest like a net.

After half a day of searching, Long Aotian, Vina, and Jin Ni had moved a considerable distance, but they were still within the outer area. Long Aotian remembered that Huo Yuhao encountered the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm in the outer area of ​​the original story, so the outer area had to be searched thoroughly. If there were no results in the outer area, they would then search deeper into the forest.

Finally, a strange fluctuation appeared.

Several meters in front of Long Aotian, Vina, and Jin Ni, cracks suddenly appeared on the ground, gradually widening into fissures.

A faint golden-white light could be seen shining from the crack.

A chilling aura emanated from the cracks in the ground, and the surrounding temperature began to drop noticeably. The cracks grew larger and larger, expanding to a diameter of over five meters in no time. And the golden-white light finally revealed its true form.
