Huo Yuhao: Bei Bei, Congratulations, You Got Your Life Back!

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was working hard to adapt to his new body.

A few minutes later.

"Brother Hao, I tried my best!" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm said.

Huo Yuhao's face had long since gone dark.

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm no longer wriggled like a silkworm, true, but he had successfully begun walking on two legs like a person.

What he had thought would be evolution had turned out to be becoming a demon!

"Brother Sky Dream, the way you look is exactly like the Centipede Demon from Calabash Brothers," Huo Yuhao could not help roasting him.

"Hehe, I'm not that outstanding~" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm laughed sheepishly, trying to get by on cuteness.

Huo Yuhao: "..."

In the end, Huo Yuhao sighed helplessly. Learning to crawl like a centipede was not urgent; he could slowly get used to it later.

"In any case, the Martial Soul has successfully awakened. It's time to leave the Far North Land. On the way out, I can find a Soul Ring too. Back then, I did tell Bei Bei I'd already absorbed my First Soul Ring..."

Huo Yuhao spoke while thinking. With his current abilities, together with Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, hunting a seven- or eight-hundred-year Ice Attribute soul beast should not be a problem.

As Huo Yuhao's Martial Soul, the Mutated Frost Centipede allowed Huo Yuhao to understand more about it through his Martial Soul senses.

The current Mutated Frost Centipede possessed both ice and poison attributes, as well as a Dragon Clan Bloodline. In that case, its development direction would naturally be strengthening both the ice and poison attributes, and the Soul Rings he absorbed should also be chosen from soul beasts with those two attributes.

Ideally centipede types.

As for the Dragon Clan Bloodline, that could be considered later. With Bloodline Devouring as a method, there was no need to use all his limited Soul Ring slots to strengthen the bloodline.

When the time came, he could just eat, eat, and eat.

As for the wings and spiritual abilities possessed by the Large Mutated Frost Centipede's corpse, Huo Yuhao's current Mutated Frost Centipede Martial Soul had none of them.

Huo Yuhao guessed that the Mutated Frost Centipede Martial Soul might need to continue growing before those could awaken.

"However, a seven- or eight-hundred-year Soul Ring is only the limit of my abilities, not the limit of my body. If I choose a seven- or eight-hundred-year Soul Ring, I'd be wasting my potential. But if I choose a Soul Ring of another age, it'll be hard to explain things to Shrek."

"I don't want to wrong myself, so I can only wrong my good big brother a little."

As he spoke, Huo Yuhao looked in Bei Bei's direction and took out the White Tiger Dagger.

If it was hard to explain, then he would not explain. He would just send Bei Bei off to meet Buddha, then devour his bloodline, guaranteeing nothing went to waste.

Shrek probably would not suspect anything. They might simply think that Huo Yuhao and Bei Bei had died at the hands of the Titan Snow Demon King.

Let Xuan Zi take the blame.

But just in case, he could not stay on Douluo Continent for now. He could only slip away to Sun Moon Continent. The Sun Moon Empire and the Holy Spirit Cult over there were both decent choices for Huo Yuhao.

The only issue was that their Fortune might be a little worse.

Douluo Continent's cultivation secret arts and Soul Tools were not necessary for Huo Yuhao. What he needed most was Fortune.

Just as Huo Yuhao's mind was racing and he had already begun pondering a smuggling route, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm suddenly spoke.

"Brother Hao, there's no hurry to leave. Wait for me to show you something!"

"Huh?"

Huo Yuhao raised his head, somewhat puzzled, and looked at the Mutated Frost Centipede Martial Soul in confusion.

He saw Sky Dream Ice Silkworm excitedly controlling the Mutated Frost Centipede Martial Soul to coil its body, then draw out Huo Yuhao's Soul Power and gather it in one spot.

Soon, the illusory image of a Soul Ring slowly appeared above the Mutated Frost Centipede Martial Soul's body.

"Condensing a Soul Ring?!" Huo Yuhao's eyes widened in shock.

He had not expected Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's first move to be something this fierce.

The Soul Ring quickly took shape, and then its color began to change, from transparent to white, then to yellow, before finally stopping at purple.

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm woke up, and the Mutated Frost Centipede Martial Soul moved, facing a wall. The First Soul Ring began to flicker.

"First Soul Skill, Frost Centipede Poison!"

The Mutated Frost Centipede Martial Soul opened its mouth and spat out a large mouthful of icy mist. Countless ice particles floated in the mist, flashing with dazzling light like a brilliant river of stars.

Beautiful beyond words.

Within that beauty, killing intent was hidden.

The icy mist spread extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, it had scattered across the ice wall, and a sizzling sound rang out from the wall.

At a speed visible to the naked eye, a large patch of the ice wall was corroded away.

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm put his hands on his waist with great pride. "Brother Hao, am I awesome or what?"

Huo Yuhao looked at the Mutated Frost Centipede Martial Soul controlled by Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, standing on two legs, with eight legs planted on its waist.

He did not roast him, because Huo Yuhao suddenly had a question. "Brother Sky Dream, does the Mutated Frost Centipede Martial Soul have a sex?"

"Huh?" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm froze. Subconsciously, he looked toward the abdomen of the Mutated Frost Centipede Martial Soul.

Huo Yuhao looked over as well.

Huo Yuhao and Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, who had seen Pudu Cihang's memories, naturally knew how to distinguish a centipede's sex.

Male centipedes possessed reproductive limbs or chitinized OO, while female centipedes did not.

Logically speaking, Huo Yuhao was male, and Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was male, so the Martial Soul should be male.

However, the Mutated Frost Centipede Martial Soul had not awakened normally. It had absorbed the Large Mutated Frost Centipede corpse's bloodline. And since the Large Mutated Frost Centipede corpse could produce offspring, it was very likely female, which might also affect the Martial Soul's sex.

Before checking its sex, the Mutated Frost Centipede Martial Soul's sex was like the cat in the box.

Huo Yuhao and Sky Dream Ice Silkworm both looked over curiously.

Then they saw a smooth expanse.

"Huh?!" ×2

It was not male.

Nor was it female.

There was nothing at all!

"I became a eunuch!" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm blurted out.

"A eunuch at least once had something," Huo Yuhao added a finishing blow.

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm collapsed and could not get up.

Huo Yuhao helplessly rubbed his forehead. "Brother Sky Dream, why are you taking it so seriously? This is only the Martial Soul's body. Don't tell me you wanted to use this Martial Soul body to do something?"

"Oh, right~" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm gradually recovered.

"You should tell me about that Soul Ring you just condensed," Huo Yuhao said, returning to business.

The Mutated Frost Centipede Martial Soul got up, and Sky Dream Ice Silkworm began explaining to Huo Yuhao, regaining his pride once more.

"This first Soul Ring was condensed by imitating the method in the Demon Cultivation Method where demons awaken innate divine abilities. It's a Natal Soul Ring!" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm introduced.

In the Demon Cultivation Method, after a demon's bloodline reached a certain degree, it could awaken an innate divine ability. Compared with methods demons cultivated themselves, innate divine abilities were often more strange and profound, and much easier to use smoothly.

Some demons with noble bloodlines could awaken innate divine abilities from birth. Demons whose bloodlines were insufficient had to improve their bloodlines before they could awaken innate divine abilities.

Pudu Cihang had naturally awakened an innate divine ability as well. Its innate divine ability was called "Clone," and its effect was allowing it to turn centipede legs into clones, each of which possessed a certain amount of martial force.

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had never succeeded in cultivating the Demon Cultivation Method, but that did not stop him from studying it over and over.

Finally, after Sky Dream Ice Silkworm obtained the Mutated Frost Centipede Martial Soul body, he immediately tried the Demon Cultivation Method.

Awakening an innate divine ability was something every accomplished demon cultivator had to attempt.

Naturally, this was the first method Sky Dream Ice Silkworm tried. After all, the Mutated Frost Centipede's bloodline was indeed not simple.

However, under Douluo Continent's cultivation system, what Sky Dream Ice Silkworm awakened was not an innate divine ability, but the condensation of a Natal Soul Ring!

"A two-thousand-year Natal Soul Ring, an ice-and-poison dual-attribute Soul Skill, Frost Centipede Poison!"

"The released icy mist contains Cold Poison. It can kill living beings on a cellular level and is also extremely corrosive toward matter and Soul Power. It cannot be dispersed by Soul Power, and it cannot be neutralized by detoxification Soul Skills below the age of the Natal Soul Ring."

"The Soul Ring's age and the Soul Skill's power will increase as your strength rises, Brother Hao. Also, the Soul Ring is completely under my control."

Next, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm demonstrated what it meant for the Soul Ring to be completely under his control.

Under Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's control, the First Soul Ring freely switched between the three colors of white, yellow, and purple.

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm knew that Huo Yuhao needed to hide the color of his Soul Ring, especially for this kind of Soul Ring whose age could rise as his strength increased.

And changing the Soul Ring's age was also an important characteristic of a Natal Soul Ring.

However, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was still somewhat dissatisfied. "Unfortunately, although I can freely adjust the Soul Ring's age, the Soul Skill's power will decrease when the Soul Ring's age is lowered. And a Natal Soul Ring can only be condensed once. After this, you'll still have to absorb Soul Rings normally."

"This is already enough." Huo Yuhao was rather satisfied.

Huo Yuhao looked toward the direction where Bei Bei was sleeping and smiled faintly. "Bei Bei, congratulations. You got your life back."

If he could stay full every meal, Huo Yuhao did not want to kill the chicken for its eggs.

The sleeping Bei Bei shivered again, his expression pained, as if he were having a nightmare.
