Chapter 15 Silk Ice Worm of a Thousand Years

"Boss, I," Xiao Lie hesitated.

Ye Wen, who looked more handsome than a year ago, glanced at him and said,

"Set aside that attitude. There's no endless feast in this world. All the instructions I can give you are written in this booklet. If you follow the steps, you'll have hope for the future of the Soul Sect. As for your stepmother, you don't need to worry about her. Her aristocratic status isn't as good as your father's, and she's just an intruder. In the training of soul masters with rings, as long as your father isn't blind, even if you don't inherit the title, someone will. If your brother dies on his journey to become a soul master, you're the one with the highest chance of inheriting his title, as your talent is even greater than your father's. In this Douluo Continent, soul cultivation is everything."

Tears glistened in Xiao Lie's eyes; he didn't expect Ye Wen to care so much about him, investigating his enemies so clearly.

"Thank you, boss. I'll take my leave then. But, I'll remember that you're my boss for the rest of my life. If you ever have any difficulty in the future, remember to come to me. I'll never refuse after saying this." Xiao Lie turned and left.

The studying students nearby also watched this scene in silence. After more than half a year of practice, they also accepted Xiao Lie as one of them.

"Do whatever it takes. Instead of wasting time here, it's better to practice soul power. Besides, you'll have to rely on yourselves for the next period of time. I'll be going on a long journey."

"Understood, boss!" The students responded respectfully.

Although Ye Wen hadn't done anything, the boss's temperament became increasingly strong.

At this time, Ah Yin also appeared. Although she was only nine years old, she was already tall and graceful, and her elegance was even more intoxicating.

I saw her whispering in Ye Wen's ear: "Are you finally planning to get the soul ring, brother? Where are you going to get the soul ring~"

Listening to the girl's clear and unique voice, along with Ye Wen's weak and charming voice, Ye Wen trembled. "Perhaps I'll have to take a long journey next. Remember to take care of yourself, and remember to help me take care of grandpa when I return from vacation." With the composite beast, Ah Yin is very confident in Ye Wen's combat effectiveness.

Ye Wen obviously didn't want to tell herself which soul ring she would hunt. Perhaps she was afraid of worrying, so she was kind and considerate and didn't intend to continue asking.

A month passed in the blink of an eye this time Ye Wen didn't go to the teaching director to ask for the soul hunting warrant, but went alone to the northern part of the Tiandou Empire. At this time, there weren't many soul masters developing the northernmost ice field.

At this moment, although he was still hundreds of kilometers away from the northernmost end of the ice field, the cold, cutting wind had already made Ye Wen shiver in the carriage.

The soul beast he was going to hunt in the northernmost ice field this time was a million-year-old soul beast with low combat power, but one of the most famous among Douluo II, the ice silk worm Tianmeng.

Just by hearing that the species is the silk worm, it's certain that the ice silk worm almost has no close combat ability, and the only offensive soul skill among the four soul skills provided by Tianmeng in Dou Er Zhong for Huo Guai is a mental shock.

Therefore, Ye Wen's second soul skill is still not an attack. With the composite beast, there's no need to consider attack power before the fifth ring.

What Ye Wen desires is the control ability brought by the mental attribute of the ice silk worm, because no matter how much Ye Wen practices, his control over Nabu is still limited, and he can't move freely.

And if you want to go further, the increase brought by the soul beast is indispensable, but not to mention the rarity of the soul beast, since the information Ye Wen found is only available in the Star Dou Forest.

But what is Ye Wen's identity and strength?

Going to the Star Dou Forest is like a sheep entering the mouth of a tiger.

So Ye Wen thought of the ice silk worm from Dou Er, a kind of soul beast that only had mental detection and simulation ten thousand years ago and was weak and easy to kill.

The only disadvantage is probably that the location is difficult and Ye Wen found no specific information about the ice silk worms in the library.

However, Ye Wen thought that although the Far North wasn't developed, there were several large cities around it and there should be information about the ice silk worms in these cities.

Emperor Tian simply valued it, because soul beasts like the ice silk worms are easy to hunt, so Ye Wen really found information about the ice silk worms in this remote northern city.

An ice silk worm with a decimeter in length is a ten-year-old soul beast, and ten times a meter is a hundred-year-old soul beast.

When they reach that length, the ice silk worms will no longer continue to grow, and for every additional hundred years of cultivation, a bluish-white line will appear on their backs. The lines on the body of the ice silk worm that broke over the millennium will turn silver-white, one by one. As for the ice silk worm with ten thousand years of age, there is no record of it.

(ps: I specifically checked Dou Er's description of the ice silk worm, and the only thing I found was that Huo Guai hunted a three-thousand-year-old ice silk worm to get skill simulation, and the ice silk worm was about a meter long. So Huo Guai tried to fool himself. The information was absurd, so I made a second creation on the ice silk worms.)

After all, the ice silk worms in the Far North are basically equivalent to the Flathead brothers in terms of the lowest level.

Moreover, the book also reminded Ye Wen of how to find ice silk worms, which saved Ye Wen a lot of effort.

Based on the information he obtained, Ye Wen set a restriction for himself and never went beyond five kilometers to the far north. He only wandered on the periphery. On the one hand, he couldn't bear the extreme cold inside. On the other hand, the Far North had not yet been fully explored, so Wen could attack stealthily and kill. The Soul King didn't dare to act recklessly, so he could only search cautiously.

Storing dried food and drinking water in the martial soul space to avoid starving to death in time. Ye Wen finally began to hunt his second soul ring.

But Ye Wen didn't find it on a high mountain, far from it. A stunning woman, with white eyebrows and dressed in white, looked at him silently.

And Ye Wen also gradually walked deeper and deeper into this vast expanse of white.

It seemed that since he entered the Far North, there was an invisible force guiding him forward. As he poked the snow on the ground with a special chisel, he silently advanced. At this moment, Ye Wen was like an ancient silent seeker.

"Ka-"

"Ka--"

"."

The process of finding a soul beast that suits you is always so boring.

Due to their weakness, ice silk worms usually hide in underground snow caves. They never came out unless there was no food in their accommodations.

Ye Wen also found several ice silk worm nests in the past few days, but the highest ice silk worms were only two hundred years old, and the lowest had just broken through the boundaries of soul beasts.

For a basically harmless soul beast like the Ice Silk Worm, although Ye Wen wondered whether he was a good person, he wouldn't indiscriminately kill innocent people. He took a look and immediately left.

During this boring search, Ye Wen remembered the comics he had read in his previous life.

Master Yu Xiaogang told Tang San not to randomly kill soul beasts and leave a path for future generations, but when he hunted soul rings for Tang San for the first time, he passed out and killed dozens of wolves in the soul hunting forest. The soul beast came to popularize the science for Tang San, which was really a double standard.

It was even more outrageous when it came to Tang Fozu. All the soul beasts he killed in the future would be labeled as evil, but there was no distinction between good and evil in soul beasts. Using human laws to restrain wild beasts is not the same as Qing Dynasty officials using Ming Dynasty laws to regulate people? How! If you want to rebel against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, you will be rebelling against the heavens.

"Haha~" Ye Wen chuckled for a while.

Suddenly, Ye Wen found a hole again and dug it out, only to see a one-meter-long, snow-white ice silk worm sleeping inside.

There are two silver-white lines on its back, and the third line has not yet begun to change. It should be an ice silk worm of about 1200. Although the original plan was only to surpass the thousand-year mark, now my strength of 1,300 pounds is more than enough to absorb it.

Even for soul beasts with spiritual attributes, there is no soul vibration before they reach ten thousand years old, as long as they can withstand the energy of the soul ring and their physical fitness meets the standard. It can be absorbed directly.

After weighing the pros and cons, Ye Wen shot an arrow directly.

"Ice Silk Worm of a Thousand Years – Attack!"

Without any suspense, this thousand-year-old ice silk worm with a cultivation level of a thousand years died directly in Ye Wen's hands.

Ye Wen couldn't help but feel that the cultivation rules of this world really favored humans. If it were in the novels of his previous life, a twelve-hundred-year-old soul beast could be called a great demon no matter how difficult it was – tsk.

Carefully covering the small entrance of the cave with ice and snow, Ye Wen entered. Looking at the slowly rising purple soul ring of a thousand years, he took a deep breath. Although he knew that theoretically he should remain calm, after all, it was like the bride sitting in the sedan chair for the first time, which made him a little nervous.

But in the end, true knowledge came from practice, and along with the understanding of the original work, Ye Wen quickly calmed down and pulled the purple soul ring into his own martial soul. Just like in the scene where the first soul ring was absorbed, the energy that seemed to pull the body out of the cells appeared again. Ye Wen slightly frowned; there was some swelling and pain, but it was still within the tolerance range.

And at this moment, the power of the soul began to operate spontaneously, helping Ye Wen alleviate the pressure. It seems that when common soul masters absorb the soul ring, the power of the soul acts as a slow-release agent.

Traditional soul masters don't put much effort into physical training, and only a few aristocratic families care about this aspect. But it's just the same old running and forging, which really isn't an excellent exercise method.

Ye Wen quietly refined this energy, and his physical fitness, which originally was capable of exerting a huge force of a thousand and three hundred kilograms, now underwent another leap, fifteen hundred kilograms, eighteen hundred kilograms, and two thousand kilograms. In the end, the sensation of advancing this physical leap became smaller and smaller. Ye Wen estimated that his physical strength at this moment should reach about 2,500 kilograms.

Finally, after several hours of hard work, Ye Wen successfully absorbed this second soul ring, a thousand-year-old soul ring that shocked the world.

It's still within the calculation range. The unfinished sensation coming from my body indicates that I should be able to absorb a soul ring one year older without any problems. The power of the soul also plays a role in the absorption of soul rings, but it seems to be closely related to the quality of my martial soul.

The cultivation of soul power seems unable to keep up with the limit of my body, and the number of years that the soul touches that can be absorbed is relatively the same. In my theory, the status of soul power isn't as important. However, this thousand-year-old soul ring is not that important.

It seems that the increase is not limited to my physical strength. Due to the spiritual attributes of the ice silk worm, my five senses are more sensitive than ever. My second soul skill is similar to Huo Yuhao's ability to change his own breath, allowing me to create a mimetic training environment and hide the color of my soul ring. It's truly the skill of my dreams!

In this way, I no longer need to strive to hide my soul ring. And Nabu's space has also been expanded to five cubic meters, which is great.

Ye Wen showed a satisfied smile on his face, and then summoned the martial spirit Nabu, which was still the same dark fabric as before. The two soul rings are yellow. "Perfect mimicry, flawless to the naked eye. As long as you're not a high-level spiritual master or a titled Douluo, there's absolutely no way you'll see through my spirit ring disguise."

Then Ye Wen took out the soul power crystal ball and tested the soul power in his body. After all, he had been stuck at level 20 for so long, and Ye Wen didn't know what level he was at now. "How can this be?" Ye Wen was surprised.

He had only managed to surpass level 20 just over half a year ago. In one year, no matter how fast he was, he shouldn't reach level 29. Is it the absorption bonus above the thousand-year limit?

At this moment, while Ye Wen was thinking wildly, his eyes suddenly turned to the thousand-year-old ice silk worm. He saw something resembling a bluish-white jade appearing before him.

"What's this?" Ye Wen looked at the jade in front of him and picked it up. Suddenly, he frowned, and a strong cold air emanated from the jade. He was shocked. He said: "This is Ten Thousand Years Ice Marrow!"

Phrased like this, it seems not worth mentioning the piece of jade before me. It's the same as many celestial materials and earthly treasures in fantasy, but in Dou Er, this kind of celestial material and earthly treasure appears more frequently and is the most important.

Whether it's the Ten Thousand Years Xuan Ice Marrow eaten by the Tianmeng Ice Silk Worm or the Ten Thousand Years Chalcedony Ice Bed stored in the Haotian Sect, they all belong to the same type of celestial material and earthly treasure, which can greatly increase the speed of beast soul master training. It's similar to cultivation and has no side effects.

At this moment, the piece of ice in Ye Wen's hand has a small crack. Looking at the cavity in the ice, I fear it is so. Originally it was a piece of ten-thousand-year ice marrow.

The reason for this crack is currently unknown, but the essence revealed in it should have been absorbed by me when I absorbed the soul ring just now, otherwise, my cultivation level wouldn't have improved so much. However, since the environment was very cold, Ye Wen's senses were extremely limited at the moment.

Ye Wen was so happy with this situation that he couldn't help it. I feel like shouting, "Destiny is mine!"

But after looking at the thin layer of ice above, he gave up the idea so as not to be buried alive.

Ye Wen, whose soul power reached level 29, had no intention of returning home for now. He had a plan to advance to level 30 and then obtain the third soul ring.

The target of the third soul ring is still the ice silk worm.
