Passing through the spatial rift, Liu Feng entered a huge, dark, damp cave.

It was well over a hundred meters tall, making him feel as tiny as an ant.

He immediately guessed why the Three-Eyed Golden Lion had brought him here.

"Follow me..."

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion bounced along the uneven ground.

Liu Feng simply climbed onto the Scorpion Tiger's back and followed close behind the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.

After traveling more than a thousand meters, they entered an even wider, grander cave, spacious enough to hold a hundred Xiong Juns!

It was a little brighter than the passage they had come through, because a white ball of light floated in the air at the very center!

The ball of light wasn't very big, only about two meters across. Looking up at it, it seemed no larger than a grain of rice.

Liu Feng had excellent eyesight, of course, and could clearly see the "grain of rice" pulsing.

It was unmistakably an Ice Silkworm!

It was imprisoned in midair, and the pure Soul Power it gave off formed a radiant glow.

"This is Di Tian and the others' food reserve. Liu Feng, you should devour it too. You'll get stronger in no time!"

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion urged him on.

"..."

Liu Feng was at a loss. Though he wasn't human, he still had to cultivate Soul Power.

Devour the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's Soul Power directly?

It wasn't as if he couldn't, but the thought put him off.

It felt like "eating" a bug.

The Scorpion Tiger wasn't shy about it at all. He had already opened his mouth and begun devouring.

Devouring was how he made rapid progress in the first place, and with Liu Feng by his side, he eagerly put his all into it.

"Hm?"

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm floating overhead woke up.

"Again?! Di Tian and that bunch of bastards just left. How come another group's here already? Why is my life so miserable?!"

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm wailed in frustration.

Its voice rang out loud and clear. Though it had been imprisoned here for over ten thousand years, it showed not a trace of gloom or hatred.

Its nature hadn't turned cold or twisted, either.

Even Liu Feng found it incredible. The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm really was a one-of-a-kind beast!

Trapped for ten thousand years, it had remained the same. Even after becoming powerful, it had never once thought of taking revenge on Di Tian and the other Ferocious Beasts.

It belonged to the Ice Silkworm Clan, yet had fallen in love with the Ice Empress, its predator.

When it came to being absurd, probably no one could top it.

"Don't worry. I won't devour you,"

Liu Feng said.

The other Ferocious Beasts, including Di Tian, were off doing who knew what. In any case, none of them were around.

Could this be the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's chance to leave?

If so, then the story was about to begin.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion said unhappily, "Liu Feng, don't be afraid of it! It's just a good-for-nothing!"

"I'm angry now! You rude little lion!"

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm shouted.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion roared at the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, then said to Liu Feng,

"Di Tian won't let me devour its Soul Power. He's so stingy. If I devour it, he'll find out and punish me. But you can devour it!"

Liu Feng shook his head. "I want to cultivate on my own."

With his Elf King bloodline, he had top-tier talent. There was no need to rely on outside help.

And it wasn't as if becoming a god was impossible in this era.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion sighed and stamped her foot. "So annoying!"

"I've got my eye on you! Little brother, you don't seem like one of Di Tian's bunch of bastards! Wait..."

"You smell really good. I... I'm hungry. Could you let me have a taste?"

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm spoke as if they were old friends.

"It's grilled fish. We just finished eating before we came in."

Liu Feng explained.

Slurp...!

"Grilled fish! I've been trapped here for ten thousand years. I've long forgotten what food tastes like. Little brother, can't you take pity on me?"

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm suddenly burst into loud sobs.

"Shut up! No crying!"

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion gave a few irritated roars.

Liu Feng thought it over, then smiled.

"It's only a few grilled fish. No big deal. I'll go grill some for you."

"Wonderful! Wonderful! I like you so much! I'll give you a huge reward!"

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm cried excitedly.

Liu Feng shook his head. Since the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was imprisoned, its aura couldn't escape. He couldn't tell whether it was sincere.

But he wasn't expecting anything in return. He was simply curious about the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm.

Liu Feng left, but the Three-Eyed Golden Lion stayed behind, pacing around and staring up at the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm like it was a delicious cake.

"Hey! Emperor Auspicious Beast! I know who you are! Are you close to that little brother?"

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm suddenly asked.

"Liu Feng is my friend."

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion licked her lips, gazing longingly at the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm.

"His name is Liu Feng, huh? So, do you want to give your friend a huge present?"

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm coaxed her.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion didn't hesitate for a second before nodding. "Obviously! We're friends! Of course I'm willing to give him a big present!"

"But you're too useless. Liu Feng doesn't want you."

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion looked at the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm with disdain.

"!!!"

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was so angry it hiccuped. How was that its fault?

Wasn't it appetizing? Why else would Di Tian and the other Ferocious Beasts have kept it locked up for ten thousand years?

And didn't the Scorpion Tiger below, who was about to eat himself to death, prove just how irresistible it was?

"I can't talk to you! But I've got a bold proposal. If you're really a good friend, do exactly as I say..."

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm fanned the flames, luring her along step by step.

After hearing it out, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion agreed without a moment's thought.

They left the secret realm.

The Scorpion Tiger's belly was already swollen. He lay beneath the treehouse, fast asleep.

He had devoured nearly three times his body's worth of Soul Power in one go. The fact that he hadn't exploded was already remarkable.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion complained, "Liu Feng, why'd you give all the grilled fish to that useless bug?"

"I'm still hungry!"

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion couldn't let it go.

Liu Feng patted the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's head. "I'll grill something even tastier for you tonight. I heard from the Scorpion Tiger that there's a kind of Brocade Chicken that's especially delicious. We'll have him catch some for me to grill tonight..."

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion's eyes lit up. She hurriedly said,

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go now! You're so good with a bow, and I'm even better. Let's catch a hundred together!"

"Scarlet King! Come take Liu Feng with you. We're setting off!"

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion hopped about excitedly.

The Scarlet King came over, crouched in front of Liu Feng, and said with a smile,

"Liu Feng, climb on. The Auspicious Beast often goes out to have fun. I've got plenty of experience keeping you both safe."

Liu Feng said nothing and climbed on.

"Whoosh...!!!"

The next moment, the Scarlet King and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion were gone in a flash.

There was no need to say much about the Scarlet King. He was a powerful Ferocious Beast, one of the strongest on the Douluo Continent.

Although the Three-Eyed Golden Lion had only cultivated for ten thousand years, she possessed power that could rival a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast!

Naturally, they were incredibly fast. They soon left the core area and the inner region behind.

In the zone between the inner and outer regions, they searched for all kinds of Brocade Chickens.

These little rare treasures weren't very strong, but they were exceptionally fast and skilled at staying alive.

"Let's split up and look! Scarlet King, protect Liu Feng. I'll search nearby!"

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion ran off without looking back.

"..." The Scarlet King sighed three times but said nothing.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion shouldn't run into any trouble in the outer region.

Liu Feng suddenly sensed something and looked up. In the azure sky, it seemed as though a gaze was fixed on him...
