Chapter 2: The White Big Silkworm, It Must Be a Hundred-Year Soul Beast!

"Huff, Huff.."

Huo Yuhao leaned against a nearby tree, gasping for breath. The earlier escape had almost drained his energy entirely, and he now felt his head spinning, nearly causing him to faint.

However, a happy smile appeared on Huo Yuhao's face at this moment. Because of the disappearance of the White Tiger Dagger, he initially thought he had traveled to a parallel universe. In this universe, it was uncertain whether the Million-Year Soul Beast Skydream Iceworm and the Necromancer Electrolux, those two extraordinary cheats, existed.

Speaking of cheats, Huo Yuhao suddenly remembered the ancient black ring. After recovering some strength, Huo Yuhao forced himself to walk slowly to the ancient ring. Observing it for a while and ensuring it was safe, he put it back on his hand.

At the same time, a cold light suddenly burst out from his hand.

A sharp little knife, previously used to gut the captured green fish, suddenly slashed out, precisely piercing the wind baboon's eye socket.

With a twist of the knife, the wind baboon's brain was immediately shredded by the sharp blade, and the beast's spirit was instantly shattered.

At the same time, the ground beneath him suddenly trembled without warning. Cracks began to appear in the ground two meters in front of him. The cracks grew larger, turning into fissures, and faint golden-white light could be seen shining through.

A chill emanated from the cracks in the ground, causing the temperature around to drop rapidly, making Huo Yuhao, who was already drenched in sweat, shiver involuntarily.

The area of the fissure continued to expand, and finally, a round head emerged from the crack. It looked fleshy, with a diameter of over a meter, but it was jade-like white and crystal clear.

Then, the Skydream Iceworm wriggled its entire body out of the crack. It was already seven meters long.

Although it emerged from the underground, its body was spotless. The jade-white surface shimmered with light, and it even had a pair of small, golden eyes on its head.

The most peculiar thing was that starting from half a meter behind its head, there was a gold ring at intervals, circling its body. From head to tail, there were ten golden rings.

"Wow, such a large size and such strong cold air, this must be a... hundred-year soul beast!" Huo Yuhao exclaimed in feigned surprise.

"Uh, hello..."

Skydream Iceworm had already prepared an impressive introduction in its mind, but Huo Yuhao's "hundred-year soul beast" left it speechless.

Hundred-year? I made such a cool entrance with such strong energy fluctuations, yet I was mistaken for a mere hundred-year soul beast? This ignorant country bumpkin is just my type!

This kind of inexperienced, simple-minded child is exactly what I, the brilliant Skydream needs! After all, carrying out my divine plan is easier if the host is easier to control.

Thinking of this, Skydream coughed with its non-existent throat and cleared its non-existent voice, then said to Huo Yuhao, "Let me introduce myself. I am the embodiment of heroism and chivalry, the king of soul beasts, the unparalleled strong one who has cultivated for a million years, setting the highest longevity record in the Douluo Continent—Skydream Iceworm. Hmm, you can call me Skydream!"

"A million-year soul beast?!" Huo Yuhao exclaimed in feigned surprise. "Wow, that's so cool!"

"How about it? Are you amazed by my powerful strength and handsome appearance?" Skydream said proudly. "Cheer up, young man, I will become your soul ring, the first intelligent soul ring in the history of the Douluo Continent."

"Intelligent soul ring? What's that?" Huo Yuhao lightly stroked his chin, puzzled. "By the way, Skydream, I heard there is a Lake of Life in the Star Dou Forest, and drinking its water can prolong life. Since you are so powerful and want to be my soul ring, can you take me to the Lake of Life for a drink?"

Skydream: ??? Are you trying to get me to turn myself in just after I escaped from prison?

"Although I need to explain this to you, my time is running out. Young man, although I don't know your name, bear with me for a bit. I'm coming in now."

Seeing the white cold air rising from Skydream Iceworm's body, it was clear it wanted to freeze himself and forcefully complete the fusion.

Huo Yuhao hurriedly waved his hand and quickly said, "Skydream, I know you're in a hurry, but please wait a moment and listen to me first."

"What else do you want to say? I really don't have much time," Skydream Iceworm stopped releasing the cold air somewhat impatiently and asked, puzzled.

"Huff!"

Huo Yuhao breathed a sigh of relief. However, seeing that Skydream Iceworm's nature was simple enough to stop its forceful fusion just because of his words, it truly was like a blank slate regarding human society.

If it hadn't encountered the original Huo Yuhao, who was naive and very inexperienced, Skydream would have been in real trouble.

"It's like this, Skydream. By your looks, you should be able to burrow through the ground, right?" Huo Yuhao asked.

"Yes, so what's the problem?" Skydream Iceworm nodded its big head.

"Here's the thing, after our fusion, we will likely enter human society. And in human society, there's something called soul coins. Do you know about that?" Huo Yuhao tried to ask.

Skydream Iceworm's golden eyes rolled human-like, showing its dissatisfaction, "Young man, I'm a soul beast, not an idiot! I know about the currency you humans use for transactions!"

"But I currently lack such things, and in our future cultivation, we will need them quite a lot," Huo Yuhao nodded.

"So, as a powerful spiritual soul beast who has spent many years in the Star Dou Forest, have you ever found any strong individuals who fell in battle against soul beasts, leaving behind corpses or items like pouches or storage soul tools that we can use to get some money?"

Yes, the blind student has discovered the bright point!

Instead of running a food stall in Shrek City to make money, it's better to loot some old guys for gold!

"Hmm? What you said makes sense." Skydream also nodded thoughtfully.

After thinking for a moment, Skydream's eyes suddenly brightened, and it said, "I remember now, not long ago, a sect called the Body Sect rampaged in the Star Dou Forest, hunting hundred-thousand-year soul beasts recklessly, which angered Di Tian and other fierce beasts, leading to a beast tide. So, not far from here, I remember a skilled human was torn to pieces by a hundred-thousand-year Nether Tiger."

"That's great! Please take me there so we can fuse?" Huo Yuhao was overjoyed.

Sure enough, his starter gift package was about to arrive!

"Let's go then. My time is running out. We must hurry there," Skydream urged Huo Yuhao. "However, that place is frequented by some strong hundred-year and even thousand-year soul beasts. During our fusion process, I will need to seal my power and may not be able to protect you. Are you sure you want to do this? The area might not be safe."

"Safe?" Huo Yuhao chuckled, glancing at the ancient black ring on his hand. "Don't worry, we will be safe."
