Tian Meng's Sacrifice, The Shock of the Million-Year Soul Ring!

"Let's wait a bit. There's no rush."

Mu En waved his hand and said, "Let's see what happens next before deciding."

The crowd continued watching the Heavenly Screen. When they saw Huo Yuhao leave, and Tang Ya and Bei Bei kindly decided to follow and protect him, the Shrek People all broke into smiles.

Then, when they saw Huo Yuhao enter the Star Dou Great Forest and nearly get soloed by a Wind Baboon, they couldn't help but look exasperated.

Was this really someone who could become a god in the future? At eleven years old, he was only just preparing to add his first soul ring, and he almost failed against a Ten-Year Soul Beast.

But what happened next made everyone's eyes go wide.

[Just as Huo Yuhao barely managed to defeat the Wind Baboon and hesitated over whether to absorb a low-quality Ten-Year Soul Ring, a cheeky voice suddenly rang out:

"Finally, I've run into a human with a Spirit Attribute. Too bad I can't cry, or I'd be sobbing with joy!"

The moment Huo Yuhao tensed up, cracks appeared in the ground a few meters in front of him, then widened into a big hole.

As a layer of White Frost spread around the hole, a round, plump worm wriggled its way up from inside.

Seeing the seven-meter-long Great Worm before him, Huo Yuhao wanted to bolt, but the spreading frost had already frozen his body in place, leaving him unable to escape.

"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you." The worm wriggled its body and brought its head close to Huo Yuhao.

"You're talking to me? Are you a legendary Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?!" Huo Yuhao, locked in place, blurted out in surprise.

"What's a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast? How is it worthy of comparing to me?"

"Listen up, kid. Standing before you now is the embodiment of heroism and chivalry, the King of Kings Soul Beast, combining wisdom and beauty, a peerless expert who has cultivated for a million years and set the Douluo Continent's lifespan record—Sky Dream Ice Silkworm!"

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm raised its head smugly and said, "You can call me Brother Sky Dream."

"A, a Million Year Soul Beast?" Huo Yuhao's eyes went dull as he asked instinctively, "Then what do you want with me?"

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm suddenly turned serious: "I want to become your soul ring—the first Wisdom Soul Ring in Douluo Continent history!"

Huo Yuhao: "Huh?"]

At that moment, countless people across the Douluo Continent who were looking up at the Heavenly Screen let out the same sound as Huo Yuhao in the screen.

The trio who had been watching the screen while hurrying toward Shrek City suddenly stopped.

Tang Ya turned to look at Huo Yuhao, dumbfounded, her expression as if she'd seen a ghost.

And Bei Bei, who had always been gentle and refined, couldn't control his expression either, his face twisting in shock.

"Yuhao, didn't you say your soul ring was a Ten-Year one?" Tang Ya grabbed Huo Yuhao's arm excitedly.

"Well, Sister Xiao Ya, I never said my soul ring was Ten-Year."

Huo Yuhao looked a bit embarrassed and said quietly, "You saw my soul ring was white and assumed I absorbed the Wind Baboon's ring..."

"So you really did get a Million-Year Soul Ring, just like in the screen?!" Tang Ya's voice nearly cracked from excitement.

Huo Yuhao nodded.

"Ah—!" A high-pitched scream erupted, forcing Huo Yuhao and Bei Bei to instinctively put on their Mask of Agony.

"Alright, Xiao Ya." Bei Bei quickly stopped her. "You weren't this excited when the screen said Yuhao could become a god."

"How is that the same?" After screaming to vent her excitement, Tang Ya calmed down a bit.

She said, "Becoming a god is so far off, it doesn't feel real. But a Million-Year Soul Ring is something I can see right now, right beside me. Of course I'm excited... No wonder Yuhao's soul skill was so strong. I knew it couldn't be from a Ten-Year Soul Ring."

Then she couldn't help but giggle foolishly. "Ah, insisting on Yuhao joining the Tang Sect is definitely the best decision I've ever made in this life. With Yuhao as a future god, the Tang Sect will surely be great again!"

Bei Bei smiled too. "Yeah, and we've even eaten roasted fish personally cooked by a future god! We're so honored."

Huo Yuhao hesitated and asked, "Um... Sister Xiao Ya, Brother Bei Bei, you don't blame me for hiding this from you?"

Before Bei Bei could speak, Tang Ya pulled Huo Yuhao into a hug and said sympathetically, "How could we blame you? You've suffered so much since you were young. It's only right to be cautious."

Then she turned and glared at Bei Bei threateningly. "You agree too, right?"

Bei Bei gave a wry smile and said gently, "Xiao Ya's right. And if it were me with such a huge secret as a Million-Year Soul Ring, I wouldn't dare tell anyone easily either. Yuhao, you don't need to feel uneasy."

Huo Yuhao nodded, enjoying a Face Wash from Tang Ya, then showed a pure expression. "I understand, Sister Xiao Ya, Brother Bei Bei. Thank you."

Far away in the Body Sect of the Heaven Dou Empire, the current Sect Master, Du Busi, suddenly stood up.

He had already sent people to the Heaven Spirit Empire, Star Luo Empire, and Shrek City, and was even preparing to send some toward the Sun Moon Empire to track down Huo Yuhao.

Now he planned to go himself! He would bring Huo Yuhao back to the Body Sect no matter what.

A Spirit Attribute Spirit Eyes Martial Soul clearly wasn't just eyes as a martial soul—it was the brain and eyes combined! The potential was limitless!

And on top of that, a Million-Year First Soul Ring! This kid was practically the Chosen One of the Body Sect!

In the Heavenly Screen:

[Without giving Huo Yuhao much time to think, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's massive head glanced warily toward the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest, then turned back to face Huo Yuhao.

"My soul power's a bit strong, kid. Bear with it!" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm said as it pressed its head against Huo Yuhao's forehead.

On its seven-meter-long Worm Body, ten Golden Rings pulsed as if alive, then enveloped Huo Yuhao's thin frame.

Even Sky Dream Ice Silkworm itself turned into streams of White Halo, surging continuously into Huo Yuhao's body.]

As the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm moved, a vast, ocean-like surge of spiritual power radiated outward from its body, covering every corner within a hundred li in an instant.

Scene change. Bei Bei and Tang Ya, who were hurrying to catch up with Huo Yuhao, were instantly struck dumb when this wave of spiritual power fluctuation washed over them.

It wasn't just the two of them—in that moment, every living thing within a hundred li, whether soul beast or human, fell into the same dazed state as they did.

At this moment, a corner of the Star Dou Great Forest fell into an unprecedented silence.

Watching the awe-inspiring spiritual might unleashed by this self-proclaimed Million Year Soul Beast, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, as it began its Sacrifice, countless Soul Masters staring at the Heavenly Screen felt their eyes burn with envy.

Only one thought filled their minds: No wonder this Huo Yuhao was destined to Become God in the future.
