Target Achieved

Ning Huan had absolutely no idea what to say at this moment.

He had clearly made full preparations and arrived at the Star Dou Forest full of confidence.

Yet, after waiting for so long, he was met with nothing but disappointment.

After a long internal struggle, he had finally managed to let it go.

And yet, you crawled out from underground yourself, shouting about dreams and wanting to become a wisdom soul ring.

This plot is full of ups and downs; it is truly unkind to the heart!

However, since someone had delivered themselves to his doorstep, there was no reason to hesitate or refuse.

Even if he felt resentful, he still had to put on a look of terror.

"Ice silkworm? No, that's not right!"

"You can speak, are you... a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?!"

Watching the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, which was identical to his memories, slowly wiggle out of the crack.

Feeling slightly nauseated, Ning Huan had to feign fear and cry out in shock.

"Bullshit! Brother is the only Million-Year Soul Beast on the continent!"

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm visibly stiffened on the spot.

It immediately accelerated its wiggling, and in the blink of an eye, its massive body had completely emerged from the crack.

"Why aren't you kneeling to worship Brother yet? When Brother is in a good mood, I'll take you to become a god together!"

Ning Huan: "..."

In the original work...

Was this guy always this jumpy?

I don't recall that.

Could it be that it varies from person to person?

Did it only use various inducements and guidance because Huo Yuhao was thin, small, and not very bright?

Swallowing the retort on the tip of his tongue, the 'returned to normal' Ning Huan narrowed his eyes, sizing up the disgusting bug before him.

Over a meter in diameter and more than seven meters long.

Its body was jade-white, surrounded by ice mist, and bloated in form.

Ten golden rings were arranged evenly, giving off the distinct impression of a golden-rimmed chamber pot.

"But... why do I feel like you're a bit weak?"

Crackle...

"And you look a bit disgusting."

Snap...

"Besides, if you could become a god, you wouldn't need to come looking for me."

Crash!

The boy's 'unintentional words' pierced straight through the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's fragile little heart.

It lay on the ground, twitching incessantly, no longer possessing the arrogance and wildness it had upon its debut.

Stop wiggling... it's so disgusting...

"Hey, speak up, what do you want with me?"

Ning Huan suppressed the churning in his stomach and plopped down in front of the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm.

Then, he said the words that would make him regret it every time he thought back on them.

"Wuwuwu, Brother feels so miserable."

"Let Brother tell you, Brother is from the Far North... blah blah blah..."

And so, for the next three hours, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm seemed to have triggered some strange switch.

Starting from the moment Ning Huan asked his last question, its mouth never once closed.

From its opportunities in the Far North, it went on to explain how it escaped from the claws of the Star Dou fierce beasts.

It even revealed the purpose behind its initiative to show itself.

It went into exhaustive detail, basically recounting everything in its memory.

Unexpectedly, this helped him skip the acting phase where he would have had to pretend not to know.

"Brother is finished. How about it? Do you want to cooperate with Brother? That's becoming a god, you know~"

"Cooperation is possible, but some details need to be changed."

Seeing that the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm hadn't hidden too much, a slightly relieved Ning Huan nodded and explained most of the matters regarding the Spirit Bestowal Platform and the Contract.

These things had to be said sooner or later anyway.

Rather than waiting for Sky Dream Ice Silkworm to reveal everything after the sacrifice, it would be better for Ning Huan to take the initiative.

This way, the maneuverability would be higher.

In any case, for the former, there were no other better options right now.

Furthermore, since the Contract could maintain the foundation of his soul and reduce the consumption of his origin, he did not believe that Sky Dream Ice Silkworm would fail to understand the benefits.

Sure enough, as soon as Ning Huan finished speaking, Tian Meng became interested.

"What an amazing martial soul! I knew my judgment couldn't be wrong!"

"A fifteen-year-old Spirit King... no, once I become a wisdom spirit ring, he'll be a fifteen-year-old Spirit Emperor!"

"And when there's time, we'll fill in the second martial soul..."

"Heh heh! What Limit Douluo, what Di Tian, even the seven gods from ten thousand years ago can't compare to you!"

The incessant whispering made Ning Huan feel somewhat annoyed.

But a sacrifice had to be initiated by the spirit beast side.

All he could do was urge Yan a few times.

"Tian Meng, I think that's enough; delays lead to changes!"

"Right, right, right, sit tight!"

As he spoke, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm suddenly became much more solemn.

His chubby head pressed against Ning Huan's forehead, and ten golden patterns began to rhythmically pulse.

"Don't worry, I'll be gentle; I definitely won't hurt you!"

Ning Huan: What kind of suggestive words are those!

"A beautiful tomorrow, here I come!"

As the words fell, the ten golden patterns transformed into halos, rapidly enveloping Ning Huan.

A powerful mental fluctuation knocked him unconscious on the spot; the effect was faster than anesthesia, leaving him no chance to resist.

The next second, the massive amount of origin energy he had accumulated began to pour in continuously, forming white-gold spheres that floated above the Sea of Consciousness.

"Not bad, not bad, a tough physique and vast spirit power!"

"The most critical part is the mental power; although it is still formless and intangible, the quantity is not bad."

"I can actually unlock one origin early and raise the age of the first five spirit rings!"

"Hmm... good idea! But why can't I read these memories?"

However, before he could open the seal he had just set, a roar like a thunderclap suddenly echoed through the high sky.

Immediately following, a powerful pressure that made it hard to breathe descended from above, leaving Sky Dream Ice Silkworm completely bewildered.

"That's strange, it didn't look like it was going to rain just now, so why is there thunder out of thin air?"

"And this aura... Di Tian? Doesn't seem like it."

"Whatever. Speed it up. Once the sacrifice is complete, the world is vast and I... Ning Huan can do anything!"

It was just a pity that he never expected an accident to happen after all.

Under his wide-eyed, golden-glittering gaze, a gray stream of air flew out from the horizon.

After circling a few times, it finally landed on the crown of Ning Huan's head, preparing to sneak inside.

"What the hell! Daring to snatch someone from me?!"

"Take this mental power! Get out of here!"

"With the sun and moon in my palm, I pluck the stars; in this world, there is no one like me!"

"I didn't expect this old man to still have a wisp of remnant soul... Hmm? Heh~ interesting, junior, I owe you a favor."

After saying this, the gray stream of air that had been resisting the mental fluctuations suddenly stopped for some reason.

Following that, while Tian Meng was stunned, it quickly burrowed into Ning Huan's brain and vanished without a trace.

"What's the situation? Where did it go? It's not in the Sea of Consciousness."

"It's so hard to find a suitable human, surely heaven wouldn't be jealous of talent..."

The completely confused Sky Dream Ice Silkworm checked Ning Huan's body thoroughly, only to conclude that this guy was perfectly healthy.

Helpless, he had no choice but to speed up the sacrifice, the sealing, and the enhancement of the spirit ring ages.

He aimed to finish everything before dawn.

Time passed rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, the morning light had already bathed the forest, creating a scene full of vitality.

At the same time, the young man lying on the ground, who had been sleeping soundly, finally showed signs of waking up.

"Ugh... dawn... wait a minute!"

"How long have I been asleep!"

Ning Huan, whose consciousness was in chaos, instantly sobered up.

His mental power, which had increased several times over, spread out instantly, and he only felt at ease after confirming that the surroundings were safe.
