The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, Beast God Di Tian

Qian Lingche, Snow Emperor, and Ice Emperor quietly infiltrated the depths of the Star Dou Forest, their goal singular: the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm.

This million-year soul beast contained vast spiritual power and ice-attribute energy; as long as Qian Lingche absorbed it as his seventh soul ring, everything that followed would be much easier.

Originally, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had resided in the Extreme North Ice Plains, but it had refused to serve as a blood bag for Snow Emperor and Ice Emperor, so it had fled.

As it turned out, it had been captured by Di Tian and his kin to serve as a blood bag instead... but with Di Tian and the others currently in deep slumber, they only needed to lure away Da Ming and Er Ming, who stood guard over the Lake of Life.

To draw away these two powerful hundred-thousand-year soul beasts, Qian Lingche had long since devised a meticulous plan.

He summoned A-Tai and the Extreme Ice Phantom Butterfly, instructing them to attract the attention of Da Ming and Er Ming.

"A-Tai, Extreme Ice Phantom Butterfly, proceed according to the plan," Qian Lingche said in a low voice.

A-Tai nodded, a flicker of battle intent flashing in his eyes: "Rest assured, we will definitely hold them off."

The Extreme Ice Phantom Butterfly gently flapped its wings, ice-blue light swirling through the air, appearing exceptionally beautiful yet dangerous.

A moment later, A-Tai and the Extreme Ice Phantom Butterfly flew toward Da Ming and Er Ming, respectively.

A-Tai released a powerful ice-attribute soul power, instantly dropping the surrounding temperature to freezing point and drawing Er Ming's attention.

Meanwhile, the Extreme Ice Phantom Butterfly rushed toward Da Ming at extreme speed, unleashing a brilliant ice-attribute attack that successfully lured Da Ming in another direction.

"Presumptuous!" Da Ming and Er Ming let out a heaven-shaking roar in unison, their massive bodies leaping up as they gave chase to A-Tai and the Extreme Ice Phantom Butterfly.

Seizing this opportunity, Qian Lingche, Snow Emperor, and Ice Emperor swiftly slipped into the depths of the Lake of Life.

The lake water was as calm as a mirror, yet it contained immense life force.

The trio dove to the very bottom, entering another dimension. Carefully avoiding the surrounding slumbering soul beasts, they finally discovered the crystal-clear Sky Dream Ice Silkworm inside a hidden cavern.

"Finally found it," Qian Lingche whispered, a flash of joy crossing his eyes.

He scooped up the squishy, bouncy giant worm and turned to leave the space.

Just then, the roars of Da Ming and Er Ming echoed from afar; clearly, they had sensed that something was amiss.

Qian Lingche dared not delay, quickly rendezvousing with A-Tai and the others.

"We've got it, let's go!" Qian Lingche said in a low voice.

Just as they were about to depart, a deep and majestic voice resonated behind them.

"Humans, did you think you could leave so easily?"

Qian Lingche and his companions spun around, only to see a massive black figure slowly emerging from the Lake of Life.

It was a gargantuan black dragon, radiating a terrifying aura—the Beast God ranked first among the Ten Great Fierce Beasts: Di Tian.

"Oh no, Di Tian has awakened!" Ice Emperor whispered, a look of gravity flashing in her eyes.

But before Di Tian could say anything more, a bone-chilling cold descended from the sky.

A massive ice sword plummeted from above.

"BOOM!"

With a deafening crash, the ice sword slammed heavily into Di Tian, the immense impact driving him directly back into the Lake of Life.

The surface of the lake was instantly frozen solid, the thick layer of ice completely concealing Di Tian's figure.

Qian Lingche, Snow Emperor, and Ice Emperor were stunned by this sudden turn of events, but they quickly snapped back to reality.

Qian Lingche immediately signaled to Snow Emperor and Ice Emperor: "Go!"

The three hesitated no longer, swiftly retreating toward the outer perimeter of the forest.

Upon returning to the Snow God Hall, Qian Lingche, Snow Emperor, and Ice Emperor finally let out a sigh of relief.

Ice Emperor plopped down onto an ice-crystal chair, complaining with a look of intense annoyance: "How unlucky, why did Di Tian wake up so suddenly? He was supposed to be in deep slumber."

Snow Emperor shook her head, saying helplessly: "Perhaps our actions disturbed him; after all, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm is an extremely important existence to them."

Qian Lingche sighed: "Fortunately, the Snow God arrived in time, otherwise it would have been difficult for us to escape unscathed."

Snow Emperor hummed in agreement: "Indeed, especially Di Tian; his strength is not even inferior to a god-level powerhouse."

"We can consider ourselves lucky to have succeeded this time."

As the three were speaking, a helpless voice suddenly drifted out from Qian Lingche's arms:

"Ahem, look, kid, can you put Brother down first? You're holding me so tight I can barely breathe."

Qian Lingche froze, looking down at the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm in his arms, only to realize it was wiggling its round, chubby body and glaring at him with dissatisfaction.

He hurriedly loosened his grip, and the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm slid down, floating in mid-air as it stretched its body.

"Ouch, finally free!" The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm let out a long sigh of relief, complaining: "You humans are far too rough. How could a delicate body like Brother's withstand such tossing?"

The next moment, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's gaze fell upon Snow Emperor and Ice Emperor.

Its round body stiffened slightly, its antennae twitching involuntarily, and its tone carried a hint of surprise and wariness: "Oh, give me a break! Isn't this Snow Emperor and Ice Emperor? Why are you two here as well?"

Snow Emperor smiled faintly, her tone tinged with mockery: "What, are you surprised to see us?"

Ice Emperor crossed her arms, a playful smirk curling the corner of her lips: "Tian Meng, weren't you quite the chatterbox just now? Why don't you keep talking?"

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm let out a dry laugh, his body instinctively shrinking back. "That... Brother didn't expect this, did he? How did you two end up mixed up with this kid?"

Who could have guessed that after nearly being drained to death by Di Tian and his lot, he would run into Snow Emperor and Bing'er the moment he woke up from his escape?

What are they planning? It couldn't be... is Brother really this unlucky?

Ice Emperor looked at Sky Dream Ice Silkworm and said, "It's quite obvious. We have agreed to your God Creation Plan."

She pointed at Qian Lingche. "There, this is the heir of the Snow God, Qian Lingche."

Upon hearing this, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's round, chubby body froze instantly, his tone laced with shock. "What? The Snow God's heir? The God Creation Plan? Are you two serious?"

Qian Lingche smiled faintly and released his martial soul.

In an instant, a dazzling light erupted from his body, and the phantom of a Six-Winged Angel slowly unfolded behind him.

Following that, six soul rings emerged from beneath his feet: black, black, black, black, red, red—six soul rings in total.

Seeing this, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm fell silent for a moment. "A mutated Six-Winged Angel martial soul... and even without Brother, you have two hundred-thousand-year soul rings... You kid, you really are a monster."

Di Tian watched the thick layer of ice reflect the blinding sunlight, as if it were mocking his miscalculation.

"To dare be so insolent on my territory." Di Tian's voice was filled with fury.

However, anger was one thing, but Di Tian did not immediately break through the ice.

His divine sense swept across the surroundings, and upon discovering that Qian Lingche and the others had already departed, he fell into a brief silence.

Now that they have run off, should I go out... or stay in? Di Tian weighed the options in his heart.

Going out meant he would have to personally pursue those audacious humans.

But those people had clearly already left the boundaries of the Star Dou Forest, making the pursuit both difficult and highly risky.

Not going out, however, left him feeling deeply unwilling.

The loss of Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was a massive blow to them.

Just as Di Tian hesitated, a puzzled voice drifted over from the side: "Di Tian, what happened?"

Di Tian turned his head to see Bi Ji flying slowly toward him.

"Sky Dream Ice Silkworm has been taken away," Di Tian said in a low voice.

Damn that Snow God, if only she hadn't interfered...

Bi Ji was silent for a moment, then said, "Since they have already left, let it be."
