The outermost reaches of the Far North.
Ever since Sang Biao had approached the outskirts of the Far North, the "wisdom" in his eyes had vanished.
The whole dog seemed profoundly solemn, his gaze alone unfathomably mysterious.
"Sang Biao, this counts as coming home for you."
Yun Tian rubbed Sang Biao's furry head. On the Douluo Continent, only the Far North could reproduce Siberia's extreme cold.
Moreover, Yun Tian could clearly feel that, standing here in the Far North,
an endless stream of Soul Power was pouring into his body. It could be said that,
as long as he stood here in the Far North, his Soul Power would suffer no depletion whatsoever, allowing him to unleash Soul Skills without limit.
Yun Tian took a map out of his Storage Soul Tool.
He had not come this time to hunt for a Soul Ring, but to locate the Soul Beast he needed.
After all, the Far North was extremely dangerous. If he absorbed a Soul Ring immediately after killing a Soul Beast, he could easily come under attack from other Soul Beasts.
The Soul Beast Yun Tian intended to hunt this time was called the Ice Prison Demon Dog.
Yun Tian had his eye on its attacks' rending property and their ability to ignore any defense.
Obtaining a skill like that as his Sixth Soul Skill would be enough to meet Yun Tian's needs.
"The core region, the Cold Abyss Ice Cave."
Yun Tian's gaze fixed on the Cold Abyss Ice Cave on the map.
The Cold Abyss Ice Cave sounded rather nice, but it was actually just a dog's den.
"According to the information in the academy's library, this Ice Prison Demon Dog is around forty to fifty thousand years old. It'll be pretty difficult to hunt, but still within an acceptable range."
After all, although Dugu Bo was the most useless Titled Douluo, having him fight a forty- to fifty-thousand-year-old Soul Beast would not be all that difficult.
But just then, the previously still ground suddenly began to shake violently.
Yun Tian's expression changed, and all his Soul Rings appeared.
Yellow, purple, purple, black, black!
The fourth ring, a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, abruptly blazed with light.
"Fourth Soul Skill, Phasing."
In an instant, Yun Tian and Sang Biao both turned transparent.
This was Yun Tian's fourth Soul Skill, with an effect similar to Invincible Golden Body.
While Phasing, Yun Tian could not use other Soul Skills, but both he and Sang Biao were immune to attacks of any magnitude.
Even Bibi Dong's Sixth Soul Skill, Eternal Creation, could do nothing to him.
After Phasing, Yun Tian retreated at top speed, but the next moment, his body collided straight into a barrier.
"Spiritual Barrier!"
A Spiritual Barrier, as its name suggested, was constructed from spiritual power. From outside, the scene within would show no change whatsoever.
"Constructing a Spiritual Barrier requires enormous spiritual power. The Far North, enormous spiritual power... could it be...?"
The image of that great silkworm surfaced in Yun Tian's mind.
At this point in the timeline, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had yet to leave the cave filled with ten-thousand-year profound ice marrow.
But if this really was the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, Yun Tian understood even less.
Why had he come running out instead of properly absorbing the power of the ten-thousand-year profound ice marrow?
Rumble!
Just as Yun Tian was puzzling over this, the ground before him burst apart, and a streak of white light shot out.
"So young, yet your Soul Power is so high, and your spiritual power even rivals a Soul Douluo's."
A voice sounded exceedingly immature, like a baby learning to speak for the first time.
The instant the voice fell silent, a gleaming white figure slowly emerged from the fissure in the ground.
Once his entire body was revealed, Yun Tian immediately spotted the nine rings of light around his abdomen.
"Huh? How can this be? Why can't I get in?"
The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm gave a puzzled exclamation as he looked at the Phasing Yun Tian before him, unable to make sense of it.
Logically speaking, with his vast spiritual power, entering the Sea of Consciousness of the human before him should have been simplicity itself.
"What an interesting human. Perhaps with your talent and the assistance of my magnificent million-year-old Soul Beast self, the God-Making Plan really can succeed!"
The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm sounded somewhat excited. When he had passed the hundred-thousand-year mark, he had vaguely sensed the terror of heavenly tribulation.
When he had passed the nine-hundred-thousand-year mark, if he had not hidden inside the ice cave in time,
that nine-hundred-thousand-year heavenly tribulation would have descended.
His cultivation now stood at nine hundred and ninety thousand years. If he reached a million years and became an unprecedented million-year-old Soul Beast,
he might have no choice but to remain in that ice cave forever, unable to leave.
But then how would he ever see his Bingbing?
For Bingbing's sake, and so that he could stay with Bingbing forever, he had devised the God-Making Plan.
He certainly believed that gods existed in this world. He still vividly remembered those two terrifying presences from ten thousand years ago.
"Well, human, I know you're very lost and confused right now, and you really want to know who I am and why I've come looking for you."
"Don't rush. Let me tell you all about it."
Yun Tian watched the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm chatter incessantly before him without showing any change, simply listening quietly.
He coveted the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's cultivation very much indeed.
In the future, he could absolutely make him his Seventh Soul Ring!
For the Seventh Soul Ring, the Soul Beast's strength did not matter; only its cultivation did.
With a nearly million-year-old Seventh Soul Ring, he hardly dared imagine how much his Martial Soul Avatar would be enhanced.
Heaven and earth changed color, from the sunshine of noon to the twilight of evening, and then to nightfall.
This boasting session, which had lasted ten hours, finally drew to a close.
"Oh, so after talking for ten hours, your main point is that you ate your way to a million years of cultivation, then predicted you wouldn't survive much longer, so you need to hurry and find a human to carry out this God-Making Plan of yours. Is that right?"
Yun Tian looked at the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm before him. He had no idea where he had found so many words to keep talking to him for ten whole hours!
Hearing Yun Tian's words, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm widened his little eyes.
"What do you mean, ate? I earned this through tens of thousands of years of cultivation, living in constant dread that a lightning tribulation might strike me dead one day, cultivating with painstaking effort, all right?"
Honestly, he had worked so hard. How could it all be dismissed as eating and sleeping, sleeping and eating?
"All right, all right. Come on, get ready to receive the essence of my nearly million years!"
Having said that, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm tried once again to enter Yun Tian's Sea of Consciousness and begin the next stage of his plan.
"Huh? Why can't I get in yet?"
"Human, aren't you tempted by my plan?"
Since Yun Tian had remained in his Phasing state all this time, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm could not enter his Sea of Consciousness at all.
Yun Tian explained his own plan.
Simply put, he hoped to wait until he became a Soul Saint before letting the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm in.
"Oh, there's no need for all that trouble. I can seal away some of my power first, then gradually unseal it once you become a Soul Saint and use that power to condense your Seventh Soul Ring."
The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm let out a deep breath of relief. He had thought the person before him was unwilling.
"In that case, go ahead."
Hearing this, Yun Tian ended his Phasing state.
If the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had not mentioned it, he really would have forgotten that he could seal his own energy away first.
"Haha, here I come!"
The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm turned into a streak of light and plunged straight into Yun Tian's Sea of Consciousness.
"Huh? Why does it feel itchy between my brows?"
After the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's enormous energy entered his body and was sealed away, Yun Tian suddenly felt an itch between his brows.
"Huh? Why is your Sea of Consciousness so strange? Why do I feel like everything I say and do has to follow your commands?"
The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's voice rang out in Yun Tian's mind.
