Sky Dream Ice Silkworm

Chapter 44: Sky Dream Ice Silkworm

Whoosh~!

That blunt response made Gu Yuena's eyes abruptly darken.

Her aura turned icy, and her beautiful jade-like eyes became as deep as an abyss.

Little Black was rather oblivious and failed to notice the subtle change in Gu Yuena.

He shook his head slightly and held up one finger directly before Gu Yuena.

With a serious look in his eyes, he said solemnly, "One bottle. At most, only one bottle."

"One bottle is already my limit. Any more might damage my origin!"

After a pause, Little Black suddenly noticed the depth in Gu Yuena's gaze.

A sense of danger abruptly surged through him, and his heart skipped for no reason.

She had treated him far too well all along, to the point that he had forgotten one fact: this was her territory!

To prevent her from resorting to force, Little Black took a deep breath and feigned calmness, showing no fear.

"Of course, if you want to use force and imprison me as your blood bag,

then I'll ignite my Soul Power, burn my blood, and self-destruct. You won't get anything."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuena immediately abandoned the idea of using her strength to forcibly subdue Little Black and raise him as a living blood treasure.

At the same time, she shook her head and began bargaining with Little Black.

"One bottle is too little!"

"At least two bottles. I alone need one bottle.

As for the remaining one, I must secure it for Di Tian, Xiong Jun, Bi Ji, and the others!"

"A Million-Year Soul Beast, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, waiting to be slaughtered in exchange for two bottles of your blood. No matter how you look at it, you aren't losing out."

"Deal~!" After thinking it over, Little Black nodded in agreement. "But you have to answer one question for me."

Little Black looked around the Underground World, curiosity showing in his eyes.

"I'm really curious. You're all so powerful, so why are you hiding away in this Underground World, never seeing daylight?"

"With your strength, even if Soul Beasts couldn't reclaim dominion over the continent and enslave humanity, you could at least fight for equal status with humans!"

Every word Little Black said made sense, and Gu Yuena fell silent for a long while.

After quite some time, she only vaguely revealed a few things to Little Black.

"There are naturally reasons behind this. If we could, we wouldn't wish to hide away here either."

As she spoke, Gu Yuena raised her head and gazed upward.

Her purple eyes seemed to pierce through the layers of rock above, looking toward the vast universe.

"I have reasons beyond my control."

After pausing, Gu Yuena thought for a moment before continuing, "Actually, I do not belong to this continent. I come from the distant Divine Realm."

"I am the Silver Dragon King of the Divine Realm, a transformed incarnation of the Supreme Dragon God's creation godhead."

Hearing Gu Yuena say that she came from the Divine Realm and was a transformed incarnation of a part of the Supreme Dragon God, Little Black's eyes immediately widened in shock.

"That is all I can tell you."

After saying that, Gu Yuena pointed at the glass bottles nearby and raised three fingers.

"These are this king's secrets, so three bottles!"

Little Black revealed a troubled expression at those words.

Three bottles was truly too much.

But for the sake of Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, Little Black gritted his teeth and agreed.

Little Black raised his wrist, then turned his other hand into a blade and cut a wound into his wrist in front of Gu Yuena.

Using Soul Power, he drew blood from his body and guided it into the glass bottles.

Crimson blood poured like a spring from the wound on Little Black's wrist. Under the guidance of his Soul Power, it split into three streams and flowed on its own toward the three glass bottles before him.

In no time at all, the three glass bottles were filled to the brim.

Once the three bottles were full, the wound on Little Black's hand healed automatically.

Seeing this, Gu Yuena waved her hand, silver light flashing as she directly used Space Power to seal the mouths of the bottles.

Then, she tossed Sky Dream Ice Silkworm to Little Black.

After catching Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, Little Black cupped his fists in farewell to Gu Yuena.

His body then transformed into a streak of black light, shooting straight out of Lake of Life and into the sky.

Above Lake of Life, the seven great beasts led by Di Tian stood suspended in the air, their feet resting upon the lake's surface.

As he watched Little Black depart, Di Tian's black dragon eyes deepened slightly.

After thinking for a moment, he decisively entered Lake of Life again and returned to the Underground World.

Seeing this, the other Six Great Beasts followed him through Lake of Life and returned to the Underground World as well.

"Master, you just handed Sky Dream Ice Silkworm over to him?"

After entering the Underground World, Di Tian immediately found Gu Yuena and voiced his doubts.

"Master, wasn't Sky Dream Ice Silkworm meant to help us increase our strength?"

"You gave Sky Dream Ice Silkworm to him. What are we supposed to do?"

Xiong Jun and Myriad Demon King likewise voiced the questions in their hearts to Gu Yuena.

Gu Yuena's purple eyes calmly swept over Di Tian, Xiong Jun, and Myriad Demon King.

"Are you questioning this king? Questioning this king's decision?"

"This king naturally has reasons for giving Sky Dream Ice Silkworm to him."

As she spoke, Gu Yuena raised her hand, and dazzling silver light of space flickered.

As Space Power continuously accumulated, an independent cubic space appeared before them.

Three glass bottles filled with blood suddenly appeared before Di Tian and the others.

At the sight of these three blood-filled glass bottles, Di Tian, Bi Ji, Xiong Jun, and the others could not help but reveal deep confusion in their eyes.

They had no idea why their master had taken out three glass bottles filled with blood.

With the glass bottles separating them, along with the obstruction of Space Power,

Di Tian and the others had failed to sense the terrifying energy contained within the blood.

None of them understood why their master had brought out this blood.

Facing their puzzled gazes, Gu Yuena did not explain much.

With a thought, she merely withdrew the Space Power sealing the bottle mouths.

The moment the bottles were unsealed, vast and majestic energy burst forth from the blood.

Under the influence of this powerful energy, even the air began to distort.

Feeling this dense and boundless energy, the doubt in Di Tian's eyes completely vanished, replaced by shock.

"This... this... this is...!"

Di Tian was at a loss for words, unable to describe this energy.

This energy was not merely energy. It also carried a pressure that came from the depths of his soul and bloodline.

It made him unable to resist the urge to submit to its owner.

The last time he had felt this way was during the great war in the Divine Realm, when the old Dragon God, the Supreme Dragon God, had unleashed his Bloodline Power in full and faced the five God Kings of the Divine Realm alone.

Could this blood be Dragon God blood?!

If it was Dragon God blood, then...!

In an instant, Di Tian's breathing became hurried.

The Dragon God bloodline was the supreme bloodline. Before his death, Lord Dragon God had been an unparalleled God King. The energy contained within his blood was beyond estimation and would be immensely beneficial to them.

"This...!" The fervor in Xiong Jun's eyes grew even stronger.

As he stared at the blood bottles before him, the Behemoth Beast bloodline within his body seemed to awaken.

His bloodline thirsted for this blood.

"Master, what is this?" Di Tian asked curiously, voicing the question Xiong Jun and the others wished to ask.

"Blood that will greatly benefit you. This king has already tested it personally."

"This blood contains endless Power of Time. By relying on the Power of Time within it, your cultivation speed can increase ten thousandfold."

"The Bloodline Power contained within the blood can even ignore the Million-Year Destruction Heavenly Tribulation faced by Great Beasts.

With the aid of this Bloodline Power, you can safely pass the Million-Year Heavenly Tribulation of a Great Beast."

"That is why this king exchanged Sky Dream Ice Silkworm with him for three large bottles of blood."
