System: The host has the makings of a Sword God!

Xiao Tian did not rush forward. Instead, he carefully considered it for a moment. Silkworm-type Soul Beasts did not have very high attack power.

A typical example was the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm. Although he possessed both spiritual and ice attributes, his entire race still had low combat strength and was only fit to become food for other Soul Beasts.

The Azure Jade Silkworm was even more so. It possessed relatively abundant vitality, was not very aggressive, and contained a large amount of Soul Power. It was quite suitable as his First Soul Ring.

But this Azure Jade Silkworm was clearly only a Millennium Soul Beast. Why did the system say it was a fifty-thousand-year Azure Jade Silkworm King?

Considering the system's ridiculous nature from before, no matter how foolish he was, he could understand that this system had most likely logged in ahead of time!

In other words, the system had bound itself to him in advance—by at least several thousand years, perhaps even over ten thousand years!

Xiao Tian was no fool. Judging from the system's warnings to be wary of Tang San, Xiao Wu, Tang Hao, and the like, as well as the prefixes it used for them, his guess was highly likely to be correct!

Of course, he still lacked samples to verify it. If things really were as he had said, then he might need to make a trip to Holy Spirit Village and Shrek Academy.

If he had guessed correctly, the system would definitely issue corresponding warnings then. He was also beginning to understand the system's nature. As long as he did something it did not expect, he should be able to trigger a Critical Strike Reward.

He could tell from how he had defeated Tang San and Xiao Wu, shocking the system and earning a reward.

Then, Xiao Tian turned his gaze toward the Azure Jade Silkworm before him, his expression strange. Could this tiny Azure Jade Silkworm really grow into an Azure Jade Silkworm King in the future?

And this was merely the small Soul Hunting Forest near Nuoding City. There probably was not even a ten-thousand-year Soul Beast here!

Still, it was not impossible. After all, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was a living example. He had literally slept his way to a million years of cultivation, making him far more formidable than this one. Every Soul Beast had its own opportunities.

But what did that matter?

Unfortunately, this Azure Jade Silkworm had encountered him. That was his own opportunity, and he could not let it slip away!

A mere Thousand Year Soul Ring—given his current physical condition, he should be able to endure it if he gritted his teeth!

Silkworm-type Soul Beasts also had low attack power, so the Soul Rings they produced exerted relatively less pressure on Soul Masters.

Had it been any other Millennium Soul Beast, Xiao Tian would have turned and left immediately.

Sword Control Technique!

Endless Sword Intent erupted from Xiao Tian's body. He swung Fifteen in his right hand fiercely toward the Azure Jade Silkworm. Fifteen's blade trembled and let out a clear sword cry as several sword phantoms struck the Azure Jade Silkworm at incredible speed.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

As the sound of air tearing rang out and blood sprayed from the Azure Jade Silkworm's body, Xiao Tian ended the battle in an instant.

After all, it was a Millennium Soul Beast. Xiao Tian did not dare be careless. He unleashed his full strength from the very beginning, seeking to subdue it in one move and kill it in one strike!

Huff, huff, huff...

Xiao Tian could not help taking several heavy breaths. He felt a stabbing pain in his head, and his mind was growing hazy.

"Fifteen, go give it a few more strikes!"

Although the Azure Jade Silkworm appeared dead, what if it was not?

Xiao Tian thought it was still necessary to strike it a few more times. There was nothing wrong with being cautious.

But in the next instant, the system's shocked voice exploded in Xiao Tian's mind, and he knew there was no need for a finishing blow.

[Holy shit, Host, you're awesome! As expected, I didn't choose the wrong person. Under my guidance, the Host actually killed a fifty-thousand-year Azure Jade Silkworm King as a Soul Master! The system is deeply shaken. The Host truly has the makings of a Sword God!]

Xiao Tian broke out in a cold sweat. Why did those words sound so familiar?

My son Wang Teng has the makings of a Great Emperor?

But had Wang Teng not ultimately been jinxed to death by that praise?

Xiao Tian did not want to hear that sentence. It felt like it would affect his luck.

[Ding! Because the Host has shocked this system once again, a Critical Strike Reward has been triggered: Milk Bottle Soul Tool (Upgradeable), Soldier Script Secret (Douluo Version).]

[Milk Bottle Soul Tool (Upgradeable): The amount of Soul Power it can provide depends on the Host's level. Its quality improves as the Host's strength rises, and it can store up to the Host's current total amount of Soul Power.]

[Soldier Script Secret (Douluo Version): Can control all weapons. As the Host's proficiency and level increase, it can control any external object, even treating the opponent as a weapon to control!]

Holy shit!

The system was amazing!

This was unbelievably awesome!

You really were my biological father!

There was no need to say anything about the Milk Bottle Soul Tool. It solved his current weakness of insufficient Soul Power, and it was upgradeable. Once he reached the realm of a Titled Douluo, the amount of Soul Power this Milk Bottle could provide would definitely be enormous!

This was equivalent to him possessing twice as much Soul Power. His enemies would have to face two of him at once!

And there was even less need to mention the Soldier Script Secret. It could control all weapons and external objects. Once he became proficient in it, he would be able to wield Fifteen with even greater ease.

Of course, that was not the main point.

The instant Xiao Tian saw the Soldier Script Secret, he thought of what Tang San's expression would be like if Tang San used Hidden Weapons against him in the future, only to discover that all of those Hidden Weapons were under his control.

And as his level and proficiency increased, could he control Tang San's Blue Silver Grass as well? After all, that counted as an external object too!

When Tang San used Blue Silver Grass to attack him, only to discover that it was uncontrollably attacking Tang San instead—just imagining that scene made Xiao Tian feel amused!

Then, Xiao Tian held Fifteen in his right hand and cautiously approached the Azure Jade Silkworm's corpse, watching his surroundings.

"Fifteen, when I absorb the Soul Ring later, guard me from the side. If anything happens, help me kill it. If you can't beat the enemy, then use Sword Control Technique to carry me away!"

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Fifteen emitted piercing sword cries. Its blade trembled, indicating that it understood!

Xiao Tian did not waste any words. He dragged the Azure Jade Silkworm's corpse deep into the grass, drew out the Soul Ring within it, and began absorbing it.

Meanwhile, elsewhere in the Soul Hunting Forest.

Tang San and Yu Xiaogang were being attacked by a Mandala Snake. Unfortunately, Yu Xiaogang had fainted again this time.

Tang Hao in the Dark sighed and was just about to step in and severely wound the Mandala Snake for Tang San when he saw Tang San's eyes suddenly change. Tang San drew a dagger, his hands turning the color of black jade, and charged toward the Mandala Snake with agile movements.

Tang Hao immediately stopped, his gaze profound. In truth, he had long known that there was something abnormal about Tang San. That was why he had been cold toward Tang San when Tang San's First Martial Soul had turned out to be Blue Silver Grass. Only when he saw that Tang San's Second Martial Soul was the Clear Sky Hammer did he finally set his mind at ease.

That proved Tang San was his biological son, and that Tang San possessed Twin Martial Souls. That was enough!
