The Ice Silkworm Broke His Cocoon at a Million Years; a Soul Spirit Pact Drew the Ice Empress

The natural energy of the Far North had never churned so violently.

Outside the cave where Qian Daoliu stood, the energy vortex expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye, its diameter soon exceeding a hundred meters.

The clouds overhead twisted into a funnel. Snowflakes condensed into sharp ice crystals amid the raging torrent of natural energy, only to melt instantly in its scorching waves. Vapor spread across the ice fields, shrouding the entire region in a hazy white mist.

Inside the ice cave, the pale blue cocoon of light enveloping Sky Dream Ice Silkworm grew ever more dazzling. Light pierced its thinning shell, illuminating the entire cave as brightly as day and coating even the ice on its walls in a crystalline sheen.

Qian Daoliu stood quietly to one side. He had long since withdrawn the energy barrier deployed by the Chaos Bell-such vast natural energy would aid the breakthrough. Rather than shutting it out, he might as well let Tian Meng absorb his fill and strengthen the foundation of his million-year cultivation.

He watched the glowing cocoon intently, anticipation mingling with a trace of anxiety. No one knew what would happen when Tian Meng broke through to become a million-year soul beast. Would he avoid attracting a heavenly tribulation, just as he had in the original plot?

Even when the energy vortex reached its peak, the sky remained calm.

No dark clouds gathered, and no thunder flashed, as though even the Heavenly Dao had planned for this ice silkworm's breakthrough and considered "going out of its way to send down a heavenly tribulation too much of a waste of time."

"That certainly saves some trouble."

Just then, a faint crack sounded, and a tiny fissure opened on the cocoon's surface. Countless spiderweb cracks immediately spread across it.
