Deep underground, not far from the Lake of Life in the Star Dou Great Forest, a golden light quietly condensed. The light continued gathering until it finally formed a plump, white Fat Maggot.
"Hahaha! I'm out! I'm out! I'm finally out!"
The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm wept with joy. His body, condensed from his spiritual origin, actually shed tears, crystal-clear droplets falling into the soil.
He had finally escaped!
Back then, relying on heaven-defying luck, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had found a Ten-Thousand-Year Mystic Ice Cave in the Far North. He ate and slept, slept and ate, and somehow muddled his way into over nine hundred thousand years of cultivation.
Yet after coming out, he had met the love of his life, the Ice Empress.
She was also his natural enemy, and she had chased him all over the Far North.
He had no choice but to avoid her edge for the time being and flee the Far North, intending to return and marry his beloved after fully digesting the power of the ten-thousand-year profound ice marrow and truly becoming a million-year soul beast.
But who could have imagined that after crossing the seas to the Star Dou Great Forest, he would be captured by the extremely unfriendly local soul beasts? They treated him as a living power bank, frantically draining his power and beating him viciously at the slightest disagreement.
Bingbing, your Brother Sky Dream has suffered so much!
The more the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm thought about it, the more wronged he felt. He cried for a good while before slowly recovering.
Now, he had finally broken through to the Million Years level and used his newly acquired ability to escape the core region of the Lake of Life.
But he knew very well that it was still too early to celebrate.
"Run! Keep running! I absolutely can't let those guys capture me again!"
The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's spiritual body began burrowing frantically, desperately digging his way out.
"Especially that raging maniac Xiong Jun. If he catches me and takes me back, he'll definitely beat the shit out of me on the spot..."
But now, only his spiritual body remained. He had to find a human to sacrifice himself to and parasitize, thereby becoming the first Million Years Wisdom Soul Ring in history.
Only by using a human body to conceal his tracks could he completely escape the pursuit of Xiong Jun and the others.
As the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm burrowed frantically, he pondered his future way out.
The problem was that although he had broken through to the Million Years level, his combat strength remained extremely weak, while his spiritual power was astonishingly vast.
Even if he wanted to sacrifice himself to a human, how could an ordinary human soul master withstand his spiritual power origin?
"I have to find a spiritual-type Titled Douluo..."
The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm muttered worriedly, "An ordinary soul master simply couldn't bear it. Forcing the sacrifice would only burst them apart... what should I do?"
Meanwhile, just as the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was racking his brains over how to find a spiritual-type Titled Douluo to sacrifice himself to...
High above the Star Dou Great Forest, an enormous object, pitch-black all over and covered in interwoven golden and green markings, was flying at high speed.
Four enormous Hover Cannon Thrusters slowly spread out behind it like four pitch-black wings. From a distance, it resembled a demon that had walked out of the depths of hell.
This was precisely the appearance of Void Star God Sauron.
But at this moment, Void Star God Sauron was not in the form of armor possessing and equipping Ye Guixu.
Rather than standing just over two meters tall, he was a behemoth well over ten meters tall.
This was the Void Star God Divine Martial Soul's Second Dress Form:
It summoned the enormous Void Star God Mecha, while Ye Guixu was transferred into the cockpit within it.
This form usually consumed more soul power, so Ye Guixu had mostly used the possessing armor form before.
But things were different now. With Puppet Sauron continuously condensing Void Profound Ice inside the Serenitea Pot, he had no worries whatsoever about sustaining his soul power.
Inside the Void Star God Mecha's cockpit, all manner of advanced instruments and Holographic Screens filled the surroundings.
Ye Guixu sat on the enormous throne in the center, while Yan Lingji leaned beside him curiously, looking at the Observation Window ahead, which resembled a transparent barrier, and the surrounding Holographic Screens that provided a full, 360-degree view of the outside environment without any blind spots.
"Master, what soul beast are we looking for now?" Yan Lingji asked, tilting her head.
Ye Guixu did not answer immediately. His gaze fell on a blue-green stretch of forest displayed on one of the screens.
Above its holographic image was a reading indicating an extremely vast amount of life force.
"Blue Silver Forest."
A cold smile curled Ye Guixu's lips. "We'll head there first and cut down the Blue Silver King."
Tide Siren and Yan Lingji exchanged a glance, each seeing a trace of curiosity in the other's eyes.
The Blue Silver King?
The king of Blue Silver Grass?
With a thought from Ye Guixu, the four enormous Hover Cannon Thrusters behind the Void Star God Mecha simultaneously spewed even fiercer emerald-green flames, propelling it rapidly toward the locked-on destination.
Blue Silver Forest, this sacred land of Blue Silver Grass, was usually filled with abundant vitality and power.
But at this moment, the atmosphere here seemed somewhat subdued.
The enormous Blue Silver King stood at the very center of the forest. Countless thick, blue-silver vines intertwined into a colossal mass, their interlaced surface forming an aged face.
Ever since its emperor had disappeared several years ago, it had sensed the change in its emperor.
Sacrifice. Death.
This had plunged the entire Blue Silver Forest into grief.
But Blue Silver Grass could not move and could only remain rooted in this land.
They grew ever quieter, as though immersed in waiting for something.
As the king beneath the emperor, the Blue Silver King knew that its emperor had not truly perished.
Under the profound principle of Blue Silver immortality...
Even if the body perished, the soul could still be preserved.
Even ordinary soul beasts retained traces of their souls when sacrificing themselves.
Let alone the Blue Silver Emperor, who possessed vast vitality.
The emperor must now have turned into a seed, awaiting rebirth.
As long as they waited, the emperor would surely return.
But just then, the Blue Silver King suddenly felt an intense unease.
It could perceive everything around it through the Blue Silver Grass covering the entire forest. According to its senses, nothing unusual had appeared recently.
So why did it feel such intense unease?
It was as though something was approaching.
Suddenly, the sky darkened sharply, the sunlight completely blocked out.
The Blue Silver King's aged face, formed from twisted vines, abruptly looked up.
An enormous pitch-black mecha tore through the clouds and descended, its metal body gleaming coldly. Four hovering thrusters slowly spread out behind it like four pitch-black wings blotting out the daylight.
At the same time...
Two figures flickered several times at the mecha's abdomen before being teleported out, hovering silently in midair.
Yan Lingji and Tide Siren radiated the pressure of Titled Douluos.
The Blue Silver King's vigilance instantly rose to its peak.
They've come with ill intent!
What truly terrified it was not those two Titled Douluos, but that enormous, pitch-black metal creation.
It resembled a bottomless abyss, devouring the surrounding light bit by bit.
Within its body lay attributes taken to their utmost extremes:
Boundless darkness and endless evil made the Blue Silver King's spirit instinctively tremble.
That aura was like a demon that had just crawled out of an endless abyss, intent on devouring everything.
Plant-type soul beasts had difficulty awakening intelligence.
Once they did, they possessed greater intelligence and spiritual power than ordinary soul beasts.
The Blue Silver King's aged voice immediately resounded throughout the forest through its immense spiritual power:
"Who are you? Why have you trespassed into the Blue Silver Territory?"
Ye Guixu did not reply.
The Void Star God Mecha slowly raised its right hand, its enormous metal claw facing palm-up. Dark-red energy rapidly gathered in its palm, condensing in an instant into a black-and-red energy sphere over ten meters across. Even the surrounding space warped.
"Mysterious Universe!"
Ye Guixu hurled the black-and-red energy sphere down with all his might!
