Done! Although I didn't know why Electrolux had chosen me without a second thought, getting his Divine Sense Fragment so easily was obviously a good thing. With Electrolux, it was as if I had the Soul Spirit Method in my grasp. Soul Beasts nearing the end of their lives would also have a chance to live on in another way.

For Soul Beasts, this method might treat the symptoms without curing the underlying problem, but at least it could ease their plight somewhat. Besides, the Spirit Pagoda Huo Yuhao established and the Soul Spirit Method didn't seem to be fully developed. Now that Electrolux was in my Sea of Consciousness, perhaps I could master a more mature Soul Spirit Method.

In the future, I could use the Soul Spirit Method to strike a deal with Di Tian.

Oh, right! I almost forgot about the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's Exuviae. Sky Dream Ice Silkworm might be weak, but its exuviae really were something special. For one thing, its defenses were incredible. Without that shell, Sky Dream might have died long ago.

And the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's Exuviae had even managed to trap Ice Empress. Even if I didn't need it, I could use it as material for making a Level Nine Soul Tool. I couldn't let it go to waste.

Before Huo Yuhao and Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had fully completed their fusion, Ao Yao picked up the white, film-like Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's Exuviae from the ground.

At that moment, Huo Yuhao and Sky Dream Ice Silkworm finally completed their fusion.

Under Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's explanation, Huo Yuhao finally realized what incredible luck had befallen him. But before he could react, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, inside his Sea of Consciousness, let out a grief-stricken cry:

"No!"

It sounded so utterly miserable that Huo Yuhao jumped in fright.

Through Huo Yuhao's eyes, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm clearly saw Ao Yao put its exuviae into his Storage Soul Tool. That sight made the silkworm, which had been lying there doing nothing, scramble to its feet.

That was my exuviae!

What gave you the right to just take it and put it away?

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was so angry its teeth ached. After all, its exuviae were supposed to be extremely useful in its plans. When Huo Yuhao awakened his Second Martial Soul in the future, he would definitely need them.

And now someone had taken such a precious thing!

This was unforgivable!

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm put on a fierce expression, ready to fight the guy to the death. But then its beady eyes darted back and forth, and a hesitant look appeared on its face.

That terrifying pressure from earlier had weighed heavily on it. And the mysterious being had clearly entered the boy's body. A head-on clash... would definitely be unwise.

If that guy had wanted to take over its chosen little Yuhao, it might have summoned the courage to fight to the death. But now...

Never mind, never mind. Everyone's got it hard.

Survival comes first!

The fusion between Huo Yuhao and Sky Dream Ice Silkworm ended, and time resumed. Ning Tian and Wu Feng also came to. They were a little dazed at first, but after seeing the latest entry in Ao Yao's diary, they quickly understood what had happened.

Their gazes soon settled on Huo Yuhao. The disdain in their eyes was gone, replaced by curiosity.

This guy... is the future God of Emotion?

He doesn't look special at all!

Ordinary looks, ordinary cultivation. It was impossible to tell why a million-year-old Soul Beast would choose such a weakling.

Di Tian, who had been hiding in the shadows, took a deep breath and suppressed the urge to capture Ao Yao and take him back.

His master had ordered him not to act under any circumstances, and that naturally included taking Ao Yao back.

Di Tian would never disobey his master.

All he had to do was remember everything that happened and report it truthfully to his master when he returned.

That unknown god's Divine Sense Fragment really did end up in Ao Yao's hands.

Gu Yuena nodded thoughtfully, though her attention was focused more on the Soul Spirit Method.

Those words had caught her attention before, and this time Ao Yao had given a brief description of what the Soul Spirit Method was. Although he hadn't fully explained it, Gu Yuena had still formed a few guesses from the context.

Unfortunately... no Soul Spirit had ever been born before this.

So Gu Yuena's guesses... were completely wrong.

Of course, Gu Yuena herself had no idea whether her guesses were right. Still, this so-called Soul Spirit Method had piqued her curiosity.

If the Soul Spirit Method had already been created, she might even have asked Di Tian to find an opportunity to bring Ao Yao back and give her a demonstration.

As for Ao Yao's claim that it could change the plight of the Soul Beasts... she would have to see for herself whether the Soul Spirit Method was really as miraculous as he said.

Surely just asking Di Tian to bring him back, without any intention of harming him, wouldn't trigger a punishment?

"Yuhao! Yuhao!"

At the sound of an urgent call, three figures raced toward the group at incredible speed.

There was one boy and two girls. One of the girls had a lively face, with large, bright eyes and a curvaceous figure that showed off her alluring charms.

Her looks were every bit as impressive as Ning Tian's.

But compared with Ning Tian's noble bearing, this girl clearly fell short.

The tall, upright young man in the middle had a sunny, cheerful air. His short, deep-blue hair gleamed like gemstones, and his handsome face had a touch of refinement.

The last person was a girl whose looks were relatively ordinary.

The three of them were Tang Ya, Bei Bei, and Qin Qin, a girl in Tang Ya's class who had just happened to need a third Soul Ring.

Ever since Tang Ya learned that Ao Yao was going to the Star Dou Great Forest, she had racked her brains trying to find a way to meet him.

It wasn't hard to tell from how Ning Tian and Wu Feng had appeared in the Diary several times that if she spent enough time around him, her name would naturally show up in it too.

But after the Diary had taught her a lesson once before, Tang Ya hadn't managed to break through her bottleneck, so she had no excuse to go to the Star Dou Great Forest.

Fortunately, one of her control-type classmates had reached the third-ring level. That gave her an excuse to bring Bei Bei along to the Star Dou Great Forest.

Tang Ya had hoped to run into Ao Yao as soon as possible. She hadn't expected to encounter Huo Yuhao, the person Ao Yao's Diary had mentioned, first.

Knowing that Huo Yuhao would eventually become a god, she chose to invite him to join the Tang Sect, even though he was currently only a Level Ten Soul Master.
