Kong Bo did not bother with empty promises; he told these powerful soul beasts that Faraday Cages would be available in the future. If he failed to become a god and passed away in three hundred years, they could simply seek out his descendants to demand them.

As for how to manufacture these "lightning-avoidance cages," the method existed solely within Kong Bo's mind. Of course, considering that Huo Yuhao was also a transmigrator, he would certainly know how to build a Faraday Cage, but whether he would think to do so was another matter—and his heart remained loyal to God King Tang. Viewed in this light, if the powerful soul beasts wanted to obtain a Faraday Cage, they would have no choice but to get it from Kong Bo.

After giving them his word, Kong Bo looked toward Di Tian. "Senior Beast God, I am quite curious about the thing you mentioned was lost. Might I ask what it is?"

Di Tian replied, "It was an extremely rare million-year soul beast, though its combat prowess was quite pathetic. It was called the Sky Dream Iceworm. As it turns out, just a few days ago, it managed to break free from our restraints and escaped."

"Escaped?" The Evil Emperor's expression turned to one of astonishment before he threw his head back and laughed. "Hahahaha! When I came to demand it years ago, you fought me over it, Di Tian. And now? It's gone. You might as well have given it to me; I would have used my tentacles to bind it tight!"

"If it escaped, can it be tracked down? I am quite curious about such a creature," Kong Bo said. Of course, he wasn't interested in the Sky Dream Iceworm's escape route; he was looking for Electrolux. If the Sky Dream Iceworm had escaped early, what if Electrolux descended ahead of schedule?

"Very well, I will take you to see its escape route," Di Tian said. Di Tian then led Kong Bo underground, where a tunnel was visible—clearly dug by the Sky Dream Iceworm. "Shall we go in and take a look?"

"Let's go," Kong Bo said. "Let's have a look."

After the dragon and the human entered the tunnel, Kong Bo remarked, "Senior Beast God, you said this Sky Dream Iceworm is a soul beast with a fragile body, but to be able to dig a tunnel like this—such physical capability would be considered strong even among us humans. That is why we human soul masters must devote more energy to studying combat techniques; this applies to soul skills and soul tools alike. If human soul masters were to truly fight soul beasts by relying solely on physical strength, it would be quite unwise."

"Are you really only six years old?" Di Tian asked. "Even some soul masters cannot grasp such a concept—I am referring to those soul masters at Shrek Academy."

"Our Sun Moon Empire is a bit weaker in terms of soul masters, so we have to have our own ways of fighting, don't we?" Kong Bo replied.

Di Tian and Kong Bo continued to move through the tunnel dug by the Sky Dream Iceworm. Just as they were about to reach the surface, Kong Bo heard a voice transmitting directly to him. An aged voice echoed in his mind: "Little one, do me a favor, and I shall reward you handsomely."

Electrolux? Kong Bo confirmed the identity of the voice and came to a halt. "Senior Beast God, I need to tie my shoelace. I will follow shortly."

Di Tian looked back to see Kong Bo bracing his leg against the tunnel wall, tying his shoe. "Very well, but be quick. The Sky Dream Iceworm is not a soul beast like a mole that lives underground long-term; I cannot guarantee the stability of the tunnel it dug." With that, Di Tian continued forward.

Kong Bo nodded, signaling to Electrolux that he was willing to help.

"Little one, open your mind. I only require a place to reside," Electrolux's voice resonated in Kong Bo's mind. "Er... as you can see, I am but a remnant soul now; I will not cause you any great harm."

Kong Bo nodded and opened his mind. He felt a gray orb of light fly toward his head, and soon, a spectral shadow appeared within his consciousness—a handsome figure with long, silver-white hair, draped in black robes and wearing a black crown.

Once inside Kong Bo's mind, Electrolux stretched. "With hands grasping the sun and moon, plucking the stars, there is no one in this world like me. My name is Electrolux. Little one, what is your name?"

"Senior Electrolux, this junior is named Kong Bo," Kong Bo replied. Electrolux certainly has a flair for the dramatic, Kong Bo thought, giving a mental thumbs-up.

As Electrolux entered Kong Bo's mind, he found himself situated right next to the library (the memories of Dottore) that existed within Kong Bo's consciousness.

Electrolux looked curiously at the vast library. "Little one, the power structure of this world is quite feeble, yet your own power structure is rather satisfying to me. Of course, I am not one to pry into others' secrets; you have your secrets, and I have mine. I shall simply rest within your mind for a time. If you encounter anything you do not understand on your path of cultivation, feel free to ask me. I am merely curious—what is this?"

Kong Bo replied, "This library is a legacy left to me by an eccentric and arrogant genius. I have only recently stepped onto the path of cultivation; if my questions seem childish or ridiculous, I hope you will forgive me, Senior."

As for why Kong Bo did not mention Dottore's achievements, it was simple: Electrolux had once summoned an undead disaster to destroy an entire nation. Compared to Electrolux, Dottore was far too kind and far too fond of life.

Electrolux laughed. "Hahaha, that is no matter. These three moons of yours are rich with life force; they are a fine place for me to stay."

Kong Bo continued, "Senior, judging by your words, are you a visitor from beyond this world? And a top-tier powerhouse at that? I have learned a few things in this world; if you are willing, would you care to take a look?"

Kong Bo then handed a mental orb to Electrolux. Inside were his conjectures regarding the Three Moons Martial Soul, as well as records of his experimental results. Electrolux took it and began to read. "Child, then I shall have a look."

Seeing Electrolux settle in, Kong Bo breathed a sigh of relief. If Electrolux had gone to Huo Yuhao, he would undoubtedly have become a major asset to him. Now that Electrolux belonged to him, Kong Bo felt much more at ease. He then withdrew from his own mind and emerged from the Sky Dream Iceworm's tunnel.

As Kong Bo stepped out, Di Tian was waiting for him. "Kong Bo, you're out? This trip yielded nothing. It seems the Sky Dream Iceworm really has escaped. It might have even sacrificed itself to some soul master; it would have been better if it had been given to you."
