Brother Sky Dream, How Did Four Hundred Thousand Years Become a Hundred?

The sun and moon turned, and time flew like a white colt passing through a crack.

In the Far North, hesitation showed on the face of a black-haired boy.

"Brother Sky Dream, you lived so miserably in the Star Dou Forest. How do you have such confidence in the Far North?"

"I'm worried..."

Within the Sea of Consciousness,

a silkworm covered in golden patterns wore a smug, human-like expression in its eyes.

"Little Yuhao, Ice Empress and I are old acquaintances. Once you obtain the ultimate ice martial soul, won't you soar to greatness immediately?"

"The teachers of the Martial Soul Department look down on you, so you should be even more determined to make this trip and resolve to slap them in the face."

Hearing this,

a trace of indignation appeared on Huo Yuhao's young face.

Though he seemed to be pretending not to care,

deep down, he could not understand why, when he was clearly also a key member of the team, he alone was not a core disciple of the Martial Soul Department.

"Mm, Brother Sky Dream, I'll listen to you."

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm swayed its head as it said, "Little Yuhao, it doesn't matter if the Martial Soul Department looks down on you. At least the people from the Soul Tool Department value you highly."

"Once you obtain the Ice Jade Scorpion Emperor Scorpion martial soul, the Martial Soul Department will be ready to kiss your ass."

"However,"

the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's eyes spun.

"Will you forgive the Martial Soul Department for looking down on you and choose to join them?"

Huo Yuhao did not think the Martial Soul Department would grovel before him. He did not want to think that way, nor did he need to.

"No!"

"The teachers of the Soul Tool Department have all treated me very well. If I threw myself into the arms of the Martial Soul Department, Teacher Fan might act as if he did not care, but he would be disappointed inside."

"I won't pay any attention to the Martial Soul Department."

"Just as I will never forgive the White Tiger Duke and his son."

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm nodded in approval.

"Well said."

"Little Yuhao, hold on to that resolve and move forward firmly."

In the frigid region,

Huo Yuhao could only keep moving through the terrifying cold after putting on the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's cast-off skin.

This cast-off skin also ensured that his aura would not leak out.

With his heart in his throat,

they encountered the Titan Snow Demon King along the way.

The third-ranked Ferocious Beast of the Far North, it ruled over the Titan Snow Demon Clan, whose overall strength was the greatest.

Fortunately,

they were not discovered.

Not until the boy and the silkworm finally reached the Core Area.

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm transformed into a spiritual body.

A powerful spiritual ripple spread outward. "Ice Empress, I know you've sensed my presence. I have returned for revenge. Do you dare meet me?"

Golden light flared brilliantly.

Huo Yuhao widened his eyes, his heart surging with passion.

So Brother Sky Dream was such a powerful being. No wonder he dared to come here.

Revenge!

Brother Sky Dream had a grudge to settle, and so did I!

When will I be able to take my revenge?

The Core Area of the Far North was exceptionally quiet.

Only the howling wind and snow rose and fell again and again.

Huo Yuhao looked puzzled. "Brother Sky Dream, didn't you say that you knew Ice Empress had sensed your presence?"

Tian Meng transformed into a golden humanoid figure, embarrassment appearing on his face.

He had just been showing off.

But why was Ice Empress not appearing? He had provoked her so openly. By all rights, she should have shown herself no matter what.

Tian Meng chose another location.

"Ice Empress, I know you are no coward. Come out and meet me!"

There was still no movement.

He changed locations again and again.

"Ice Empress, you really are still afraid of me. What a disappointment!"

On one hand, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm worried that something might have happened to Ice Empress, but showing off in front of Little Yuhao felt far too good.

An admiring expression appeared on Huo Yuhao's face.

"As expected of Brother Sky Dream, a Million-Year Soul Beast. He's so bold even when facing Ice Empress, who has four hundred thousand years of cultivation."

He subconsciously assumed that in the Star Dou Forest, Brother Sky Dream had fought against numerous foes before being defeated by their combined assault.

But good times did not last.

A jade-green scorpion rushed toward them at astonishing speed. Its jade-green color sent chills down the spine, and a freezing aura spread outward.

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was horrified. "That's not Ice Empress! Run!"

He burrowed into Huo Yuhao's Sea of Consciousness and desperately urged the boy to flee.

Huo Yuhao shuddered.

As he ran, he contacted Tian Meng with spiritual ripples.

"It's a scorpion. Why isn't it Ice Empress?"

Tian Meng's spiritual ripples were urgent.

"It isn't Ice Empress. It's a seventy-thousand-year Ice Jade Scorpion."

Regret and chagrin quickly appeared on his face.

Huo Yuhao was confused.

"You aren't even afraid of Ice Empress, so why are you afraid of a seventy-thousand-year Ice Jade Scorpion?"

He could sense the fear radiating from Brother Sky Dream's spiritual body.

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm twitched the corner of his mouth.

He could not exactly say that he could bluff Ice Empress but could not bluff an Ice Jade Scorpion, could he?

As the only Million-Year Soul Beast in the world,

Tian Meng possessed a uniquely gifted talent for escaping. Using Mental Interference and aura concealment, he successfully led that Ice Jade Scorpion to chase in the wrong direction.

Huo Yuhao ran until he was panting heavily.

The menacing Ice Jade Scorpion was now completely out of sight.

Tian Meng fell into thought.

A sorrowful expression appeared on his face. "It seems Ice Empress has already died under the heavenly tribulation."

Having slept for so many years, Tian Meng had long forgotten the exact timing.

"Yuhao, it seems I can only help you find a hundred-year Ice Jade Scorpion to serve as your second martial soul."

Huo Yuhao froze.

How had it suddenly become a hundred-year one?

Tian Meng could sense his confusion.

"As long as an Ice Jade Scorpion has not become an emperor, the difference in their origins is only one of accumulated quantity, not a qualitative change."

"Most importantly, your body is too weak. You can only absorb a hundred-year Soul Ring."

Tian Meng sighed.

Even finding a hundred-year Ice Jade Scorpion would not be easy.

The Ice Jade Scorpion population was very small.

Without counting their leader, the Ferocious Beast, their overall strength was far inferior to that of the Titan Snow Demon Clan. However, their individual strength was exceptionally outstanding.

The boy and the beast searched for half a month.

During that time, Huo Yuhao ate steamed buns frozen hard as rocks. Just before he nearly fainted from hunger, he finally encountered an injured seven-hundred-year Ice Jade Scorpion.

Tian Meng's spiritual power erupted.

The jade-green, crystal-clear Soul Beast lay sprawled in the snow, brain-dead and incapable of resisting.

Holding the White Tiger Dagger, Huo Yuhao stepped across the snowdrifts.

He carefully pierced through the Ice Jade Scorpion's brain.

Watching this scene, Tian Meng sighed.

The Ice Jade Scorpion population is small, and Ice Empress deeply hates those who hunt Ice Jade Scorpions. But now that Ice Empress is dead, there is no need to consider so much.

Huo Yuhao sat down cross-legged.

He began absorbing his first Soul Ring.

He knew it would be best to add a Soul Ring to his second martial soul only after becoming a Title Douluo, but Huo Yuhao understood even more clearly that if he did not display his talent, he would not receive many resources.

Thinking of his teammate Xiao Xiao's choice,

his heart instantly became incomparably resolute.

A top-tier beast martial soul, the Ice Jade Scorpion, is mine!

Sun Moon Academy.

Xu Tinglan and the others sat cross-legged in the Auxiliary Cultivation Room, preparing for the Continental Youth Soul Master Tournament four months later.

He, Xiao Hongchen, and Meng Hongchen had successively broken through to the Soul King rank.

They obtained ten-thousand-year Soul Rings, and their strength rose greatly.

Jiang Nannan had also broken through to the Soul Ancestor rank and gained another heaven-defying divine skill that countless Soul Engineers envied.

Invincible Golden Body.

For three seconds, she remained completely invincible.

One had to know,

the Invincible Barrier, an incomparably powerful one-use defensive Soul Tool, had been developed based on this exceedingly rare soul skill.
