After a brief exchange with the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, Huo Yuhao immediately returned to his body. He opened his eyes and found himself lying on a soft, delicate body. He abruptly rose, then pounced on the girl, pinning her beneath him.

Tang Ya instantly blushed and tried to resist, but in her flustered panic, she actually forgot to release her martial soul-and even forgot to push Huo Yuhao away.

She simply let him lie on top of her.

Huo Yuhao quickly came to his senses as well. Once he understood the situation, he realized he had misjudged the girl. He hurriedly got off her, then looked at her apologetically. "I'm sorry."

Huo Yuhao's emotions were far from calm. If Tang Ya were an evil soul master, she should have attacked him while he was unconscious.

But Tang Ya had done no such thing. She had done nothing at all, instead quietly watching over him.

Huo Yuhao suddenly realized that he might have misjudged the girl before him. Perhaps the truth was not what he had seen.

A trace of apology appeared on his face. He had always viewed Tang Ya through tinted lenses, so his perspective had not been entirely fair.

"Could you tell me your story? Perhaps you aren't what I thought you were."

"Huh?"

Being pinned beneath Huo Yuhao had already left Tang Ya embarrassed, and her cheeks were still flushed. But when she heard his words, excitement appeared on her face.

His words meant that things had taken a turn for the better. If she could explain everything clearly to the boy before her, perhaps she would no longer have to live in fear.

"I can swear that I've never used my evil abilities to hurt anyone. When I discovered that my martial soul could devour life to cultivate, I was terrified-terrified that someone would find out I had an evil martial soul."

"But my Blue Silver Grass's normal cultivation speed was simply too slow. I carry a blood debt that must be avenged, and I couldn't accept that. So I secretly absorbed the life force of some plants to cultivate. But I can promise you that I've never harmed anyone."

Huo Yuhao had no interest whatsoever in the blood debt Tang Ya carried. After hearing her explanation, he felt that she was telling the truth and chose to believe her.

He also needed to apologize for his own rudeness. Still, Tang Ya was ultimately just someone he had met by chance, and Huo Yuhao would not concern himself with her too much. After exchanging a few more words, he said goodbye and left.

Before leaving, however, Huo Yuhao glanced to the side, then immediately gathered himself and headed toward the western part of the Star Dou Great Forest.

The direction Huo Yuhao had looked in was precisely where Bei Bei stood. Thinking back to his interaction with Tang Ya just now, he felt rather strange.

No man could stand that, could he? If I were Bei Bei, I would have fallen apart inside by now.

After leaving Tang Ya and Bei Bei, Huo Yuhao also left the Star Dou Great Forest. He had not ventured deep into it in the first place and had only been at its outermost edge. Once outside the forest, he skirted its border and set off toward the Mingdou Mountain Range.

He intended to go to the Sun Moon Empire and study soul tools at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy. He needed to prepare thoroughly for his next transmigration.

In his eyes, knowledge alone was priceless. Knowledge alone was a person's strongest weapon. And the Sun Moon Empire's powerful soul tool technology was precisely the knowledge he needed most.

In the world Tang San inhabited, powerful soul tools could accomplish anything-or so Huo Yuhao believed. Thus, after obtaining his first soul ring, he hurried toward the Mingdou Mountain Range without stopping, hoping to leave the Douluo Continent and travel to the Sun Moon Continent.

That was a major matter, but discovering exactly what the being inside him was would be equally important.

After making certain that he was well away from Tang Ya and Bei Bei, and confirming that his surroundings were safe, he sank his mind into his spiritual sea of consciousness.

Once again, he met the so-called million-year soul beast, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, who possessed no combat power whatsoever. Although they had already exchanged a few brief words and learned each other's identities, there were still many details that would be best clarified.

He was very interested in the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's God-Making Plan.

"Come on, explain it to me in detail. What is the God-Making Plan? How do you intend to create a god?"

A mere soul beast actually dared to covet a god's seat. How utterly laughable.

Huo Yuhao wanted to hear just how the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm planned to accomplish something so unbelievable. After all, he knew exactly how difficult it was to achieve self-created godhood.

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm did not dare show the slightest disrespect either. He already knew that what he had encountered earlier was merely a phantom body of the boy before him. This boy was the one in control of everything.

He did not understand how Huo Yuhao's phantom body worked, but the fact that the original body had worse aptitude than the phantom body was certainly bizarre.

Still, since he was already bound to Huo Yuhao, he could only grit his teeth and accept it. He had no way back now and could only follow this one road to its bitter end.

"The God-Making Plan is... blah, blah, blah!"

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm explained patiently, and Huo Yuhao listened attentively. By the time he finished, Huo Yuhao understood.

The so-called God-Making Plan actually hinged on three key points. The first was naturally the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's million-year soul ring, which gave him four powerful million-year soul skills: Spiritual Detection, Spiritual Sharing, Spiritual Shock, and Spiritual Disorder.

All four soul skills had ages reaching a million years, making them extremely powerful and highly suited to his Spirit Eyes martial soul. They also came with a passive Simulation ability.

In Huo Yuhao's eyes, this ability had been tailor-made for him. After all, he had three phantom bodies, and not every one of them could have the same soul ring configuration as him. Now that he had Simulation, however, nothing could go wrong.

Another point was that the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm could provide him with an additional martial soul slot, allowing him to become a wielder of twin martial souls in a single leap.

However, this martial soul could only be ice-attributed. After all, the origin power the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had bestowed upon him was ice, so he could only choose an ice-attributed second martial soul.

This stirred little emotion in Huo Yuhao. After all, he already had three god-level martial souls. This could only count as an unexpected bonus.

Finally, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had sealed his million years of pure cultivation within Huo Yuhao's body, which could help increase the ages of his soul rings. Even if his third soul ring were only a thousand years old, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm could use that energy to strengthen it to a hundred thousand years.

That was a rather good ability. In his eyes, it already counted as a god's means. The fact that the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm could accomplish it proved that he was indeed worthy of being the continent's only soul beast with a million years of cultivation.

With everything clarified, Huo Yuhao was about to leave his spiritual sea of consciousness. The matter of his second martial soul could wait until he reached the Sun Moon Empire.

But the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's next words stirred his interest.
