Second Soul Ring

The White Tiger Dagger makes him think of his mother, a Wind Baboon, twelve years old... Kid, you're Huo Yuhao! Is this still Douluo I? I haven't transmigrated again, have I?

"Is something wrong with the name White Tiger Dagger?"

Seeing Xu De's astonished expression, Huo Yuhao looked curious as well. This big brother seemed very powerful. Could he know his mother or someone from the Duke's Mansion? At the thought, Huo Yuhao grew nervous again.

"It's nothing. It just reminded me of an old acquaintance."

Xu De quickly recovered. There was no use dwelling on it. If this followed the timeline of Douluo II, Tang San had already secured his position as God King and should be busy fighting the God of Destruction for control of the Divine Realm.

But now that Xu De was here, he naturally wouldn't let things go so smoothly for him. Tang San, oh, Tang San, now that I'm here, Huo Yuhao won't be your dog. He didn't want to see a perfectly good young man deceived by Tang San into being the Tang family's dog for the rest of his life.

As the two chatted, a powerful ripple of spiritual power swept over them. In an instant, it covered an area a hundred li across, and everyone except Xu De fell into a brief stupor.

At the same time, a gigantic silkworm with a body the color of white jade appeared before Xu De once again.

"Holy shit, another Sky Dream?"

Xu De was naturally familiar with the creature before him. After all, an identical Soul Beast was lying in his Sea of Consciousness.

"Don't be afraid, kid. I'm the possessor of wisdom and beauty, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm. You can call me Brother Sky Dream!"

Before the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm could continue his introduction, Xu De's Sun Moon Divine Eyes began operating on their own. At the same time, a Million-Year Soul Ring lit up beneath his feet, giving Tian Meng quite a fright. "How is that possible? How is your First Soul Ring a million-year one?"

Before he could express any more surprise, the other Sky Dream Ice Silkworm emerged from the Sea of Consciousness, and the two Tian Mengs stared wide-eyed at each other.

"Stop dawdling and start the sacrifice. I'll help you!" The main world's Tian Meng wasted no words and urged him on. Having become a Martial Soul, he could do far more than he had as a Soul Beast.

As a result, he had already faintly sensed the terrifying presences of Ferocious Beasts deep within the Star Dou Great Forest. Although the current Xu De had nothing to fear from ordinary Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts, his Soul Power was exhausted, and Ferocious Beasts were no ordinary Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts.

The Soul Beast Tian Meng didn't hesitate. Perhaps it was the presence they shared from the same origin, or perhaps he had no second choice now. He chose to follow the main world Tian Meng's advice and pressed his head directly against Xu De's forehead.

"Damn it, here we go again!"

Xu De had already experienced Tian Meng's sacrifice once and naturally knew how painful it was. But complaints aside, he wasn't stupid. Who could resist the temptation of having two million-year rings?

Ten rings of light enveloped Xu De's strong body once again, and the Tian Meng Ice Toad turned into streams of white light that poured into him.

Unexpectedly, Tian Meng placed no seals whatsoever during this sacrifice and succeeded in sacrificing himself in his complete form. At the same time, a fierce pain struck Xu De's eyes.

When he opened them again, his two eyes were each like a real sun and moon.

"Good, this is great!" Feeling the feedback from the spiritual power in his Sea of Consciousness, Xu De could no longer suppress his joy. Having million-year rings for both his first and second rings was secondary. Most importantly, these two eyes had actually been formed from Soul Bones obtained through the sacrifice of a Million-Year Soul Beast!

Boom! A thunderous roar rang out high in the sky. In an instant, the sunlight was completely blotted out by darkness, and an immense pressure descended from above. A strange black Qi, carrying a terrifying pressure, plunged straight down, seemingly intent on entering Xu De's body. Xu De didn't resist; he had long known the black Qi's true origin.

But just as the black Qi was about to enter Xu De's body, the Sun Moon Divine Eyes produced a powerful suction and forcibly snatched it away. An aged sigh came from within the black Qi before it was absorbed by the Sun Moon Divine Eyes.

Xu De and the two Tian Mengs could only watch as it all suddenly happened and then disappeared.

"What happened here?!" A startled cry rang out in the distance, followed by two figures swiftly descending beside Huo Yuhao. One was a ponytailed girl in light-blue, form-fitting clothes, who stared at Xu De warily with her phoenix eyes.

Behind her stood a refined young man with short, dark-blue hair and a tall, slender figure. A gentle smile on his handsome face, he said, "Brother, the two of us made this young man's acquaintance earlier, so I, Bei Bei, was a little anxious. Please don't take offense."

Bei Bei was clever. As soon as he arrived, he noticed the dead Wind Baboon nearby. Huo Yuhao was also uninjured, so the answer was already on the tip of his tongue: the young man before him had saved Huo Yuhao.

Xu De didn't take offense. He disliked Tang San, but he didn't have much against Tang Ya. After all, she was merely a product of the Tang Sect's feudal thinking and another of Tang San's victims. Still, he couldn't bring himself to like her either.

As for Bei Bei, Xu De felt it was a great pity. Though he was Gangzi's descendant, he was a pretty good person. And what he would go through in the future was truly miserable.

In the Heaven and Earth Dog Training Valley, Tang San forced him and Xu Sanshi, and he was also forced to castrate himself to save Tang Ya. Xu De had felt sick when he read that. Tang San kept saying that the Divine Realm must not interfere with the Douluo Continent.

Yet he himself had secretly done something so utterly heartless. By stopping him from becoming a god, Xu De had rid the Douluo Continent of a scourge. He just didn't know whether he would have a chance to deal with this world's Tang San in the future.

"No harm done. Little brother Huo only fainted because he was too tired. You two don't need to worry too much."

After merging with his Second Soul Ring and Soul Bones, Xu De's Soul Power had surged again, bringing him to the rank of a level 49 Soul Ancestor. His abilities had also fully recovered, so he would no longer be unable to fight back if he encountered danger.

"Mm..." Huo Yuhao let out a soft groan, then slowly opened his eyes. "Sister Xiaoya, Brother Bei Bei, why are you here? Where's Brother Xu, the one who just saved me?" Huo Yuhao asked, a little confused.

Only when Tang Ya saw Huo Yuhao wake up did she relax. After hearing his words, she also felt a little apologetic for suspecting Xu De earlier.

"It's all right. The two of them were worried about you, so they followed behind you the whole way. You collapsed from exhaustion just now, and they were too worried."

Xu De rose from the ground, patted down his clothes, and spoke with a slight smile. In his eyes, that little misunderstanding from before was nothing.

"You two must be from Shrek, right? Could you take Yuhao and me there?"

Tang Ya and Bei Bei were no nobodies in Shrek, so they weren't too surprised that Xu De knew who they were. As for taking them to Shrek, that was even less trouble than lifting a hand.

After Bei Bei and Tang Ya exchanged a glance, Bei Bei looked at Xu De and nodded. "No problem. We're heading back to Shrek Academy anyway."

Naturally, Xu De couldn't stay here long. Tang San had become a God King in this world, so how could he stand by and watch a Godhood Inheritance go to someone who wasn't under his command? Even Huo Yuhao, his own son-in-law, had to be trained into a dog before Tang San would grudgingly give him a First-Level God's inheritance.
